XP netbook can detect btfon signal but not my home...

I have BT Infinity with a home hub 3 and there are several devices in the house connected to it including one physical connection to a Windows 7 desktop, iPad, iPhone, android phones, sky+ box, blackberry, vista laptop. The oldest device is an Advent XP netbook. This is the problem device. It will initially connect to the router via the regular home network, but then one day it refuses to detect it. It will happily see and connect to the btfon signal but despite refreshing the available networks it refuses to see the home network.
I can usually solve this by rebooting the router, but it's becoming very annoying. I have tried changing the broadcast channel, changing down to b/g rather than b/g/n.
The fact that it can quite clearly see the btfon signal and a neighbours signal would suggest that the wireless card is fine and the fact that other devices can connect to the home network suggests the router is fine. Perhaps it's a setting somewhere.
Im not a tech expert and I'm not really sure what I'm talking about but could the dhcp lease renewal be causing problems (whatever dhcp may be)?
Apologies if this has bme mentioned and solved before.
Thanks,
Darren

I had the exact same thing with my old Home Hub, I'm using the exact same Adapter now but with just a new hub. I haven't had this problem since the new HomeHub so I put it too the old hub as nothing has changed my end except the hub.

Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

I too am having the same problem. I'm glad to know it's not just me

My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

Hi @anthony7722 ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control. You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
Here are two links that I believe will help.
Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
Please try this process.
1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them but do not install them yet
2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
3. restart your notebook
4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
5. restart your notebook
6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver.
You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
I hope this helped.

My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh - that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion.

My Gen 7 ipod is detected by itunes but not properly recognized

My gen 7 ipod is detected by itunes but not properly recognized. I have reloaded itunes and other trouble shooting, but no luck

Suggest you try the following two steps starting with the first one. If it doesn't correct the problem perform the second step.
Restart iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
Reset iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Sorry, but music tracks and other media contact are not available in Israel via an iTunes Store at this time. None of us here can say when Apple will be able to obtain the necessary licenses and feel it worthwhile to set up an iTunes Store for your country.

Bonjour - Mac A can see Mac B but not vice versa

Hi
Very odd behaviour with Bonjour. Up until yesterday, my macbook pro (call it A) would see my mac pro (B) - it would appear automatically in A's sidebar, I could listen to B's iTunes library on A and so on. No problem and there hasn't been for a couple of years. B could not see A - but I didn't really need it to and this wasn't an issue.
Suddenly, this morning, the situation is completely reversed. A can no longer see B at all, but B can see A.
I can connect both ways by using 'Connect', I can ping both ways, but I can't get A to discover B using Bonjour.
The only think I've done that I can think can have caused the changes is to use Omnifocus sync (with B holding the sync server) - it worked fine all day, but overnight Bonjour seems to have reversed itself as described above.
Bonjour Browser shows me that B can see A, but A can't see B. I have identical settings on both machines for sharing, network, firewall (all everything).
Bizarrely, for one two minute period a couple of hours ago, the situation reversed itself (A could see B but not vice versa), but then immediately went back to B can see A, but not vice versa.
Both computers are running the same version of Leopard (10.5.7). I've reinstalled the OS on B, just to see, but this hasn't improved matters.
I can find nothing on google or this discussions forum to explain this bizarre behaviour - most support threads seem to peter out without being resolved. Has anyone any idea what's going on please? I'm quite happy getting stuck into the command line, if that's needed.
Many thanks
David

The Macbook Pro is connected wirelessly to the router, the Mac Pro connects to the same router by ethernet.
As far as I'm aware, I'd made no changes to any of the setups (computers or router) before the problem occurred: bonjour worked fine, but in one direction only (the MBP could see the Mac Pro, but not vice versa). Now, the Mac Pro can see the MBP, but not vice versa - and this is a problem because my printer and itunes server both sit on the Mac Pro.
I've set all the firewall and security settings I could find to transparent access - and (except for the obvious difference between the wired and wireless links), the setups are identical on both computers.
By the way, I can connect to the Mac Pro easily enough and transfer files, I just can't see it via bonjour or use Screen Sharing (again the settings haven't changed since they were working!)
Many thanks
David

Suddenly I can't access itunes on my computer. I can on my IPod but not on the computer. I click on the itunes icon and nothing happens.

Suddenly, I can't access the Itunes on my computer. I can on my IPod, but not from my home computer, where my library is stored. ANy suggestions?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

In v.11, how can I capture video but not audio from a camera?

In v.11, how can I capture video but not audio from a camera?

Rodney
I see what you mean....Premiere Elements 10 appears to be the last version that had options for the user to select Capture Video and/or Audio in the its Capture Window.
If you are doing DV data capture firewire into the Premiere Elements 11 Capture Windows and want a final file without audio and you cannot do this at the camera level, then consider....
1. Do the Capture "to the Timeline" - video linked to audio result on the project's Video Track 1
a. Right click the Timeline DV AVl and select Delete Audio and then edit accordingly.
or
b. Import the DV AVI but, when you go to export it, in the export settings, remove the check mark next to Audio so that the export contains only the video portion.
Publish+Share/Computer/AVI with Presets = DV NTSC Standard
Please let us know if any of that worked for you.
Thank you.
