I'm reprogramming my Harmony remote for the new TV, and suddenly the software is telling me "None of my devices can change the channel." Anyone know how I can convince it that my cable box in fact DOES have that function?

Aha - I'd mistakenly left "Watch TV" in DVR mode even though I don't have a working DVR at the moment (and already deleted Tivo from my device list). Once I switched to "Watch TV (Cable or Antenna)" the cable box popped up on the list.

All the USB ports (save one pair) on my 'puter have mysteriously stopped working. If I plug a device into it, I get nothing, not even an error message. I already tried going into device manager and removing all the USB stuff to let WindowsXP reinstall it all on reboot, but it made no difference. Any ideas?

Are they ports that are extended to the case from a motherboard header, or are they ones on the backplane of the motherboard? If it's ones from the MB are working the case ones are not check to make sure you didn't have a ribbon cable come loose from the header.

Both. But just for the heck of it, I opened up the case and switched the one connected with a cable to another available header. Now they are all working. Maybe. We'll see how long it lasts. Thanks.

And minutes after I wrote the post above, they stopped working. No warning. Nothing. Verrrry strange!

I want to use tivo.com to schedule a recording on my non-HD TiVo (it's not responding to the remote) but I can't work out how to have it not send to the primary TiVo. It tells me the name of the machine it's going to program, but that's not even the same as either of the names I have defined on the TiVo DVR Preferences page.

eta: Aha! There is more than one "record this episode" page. I found one with a DVR dropdown.

Now, if your only content is mystuff, I'd toss it entirely and just go with mywebsite--is it?

no, it's for my job. My office has 4 separate functions, each of which needs its own page and subpages. Also, my office's name has changed, so we're changing the general website name. Therefore these issues have come up.

so, we're looking at "honors.university.edu" or "www.university.edu/honors".

What's the deal with using the www or not?

At my university, only separate schools have the school.university.edu, and the departments have university.edu/department.

Is the "on-the-go" playlist thing something I do on itunes so that I can have sort out music to put on my nano when I have more music in itunes than the nano can hold?

(I think that this is my problem - too much stuff on my itunes and it's overloaded my nano.)
