Buffy ,'Lessons'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
My Cablevision HD Tifaux can't get a signal. So I'll be at home tomorrow morning waiting for the cable guy. On the plus side, maybe he can take my old box away with him and save me the trouble of mailing it back.
Since I'd already disconnected the Tivo from the old box, we had to watch LIVE TV last night. (In SD, since I couldn't make the HD box work.) It was pretty traumatic.
Okay, my nano and itunes are driving me mad.
I'm trying to get it to synch the bsg webisodes but it won't load the damn things and it keeps disconnecting before I can do anything.
What can I do so that I can ask the ipod to sync the tv shows I pick?
I used to be able to do that but when I connected it this morning it asked me to restore the ipod first so I did and now it's driving me mad.
Have you tried switching to managing your iPod manually and dragging and dropping?
Also, for whatever reason, I used to have problems loading audio podcasts onto my iPod, I found if I deleted the podcast from iTunes and downloaded it again, it would then transfer to my iPod. I don't know why it worked, but it did.
It keeps on ejecting my nano before I can do that - it will automatically sync and then automatically eject.
That's why it's frustrating me.
Are anyone else's Tivo program listings all screwed up? I went to the site to see if El Fuckwit was going to mess with Supernatural night and extend the recording just in case, but the guide seems to think we've bumped forward in time five or six hours.
Like, it shows right now to to be 5:30 p.m., but the programming clearly still daytime stuff. It's got SPN listed as broadcasting at 2 a.m. Help? I've got stuff to do after work and I'm going to be hella pissed if all my scheduled stuff is messed up.
Brenda, has it possibly changed your time zone?
To the middle of the Atlantic, apparently. I'm trying to figure out how to check that. (And honestly, did ever a product as glorious as Tivo have a more frustrating, useless web platform backing it up? I get stressed out every time I have to go there.)
sumi, in iTunes, go under edit, the Preferences, and on the devices tab, try checking "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and see if you can stay connected then.
Thanks - I will try that.
Ah, no - that didn't work.
