How to configure automation with Apple TV, Homekit and Hue

I have what I believe should be a viable home automation installation: a new brand (4th generation, Sept. 16) Apple TV, a hub of hue with the support of Homekit and seven lights attached via the hub.  The lights appear in the home iPad app and can be enabled or disabled here.  I can also do things with Siri on the Apple TV as "turn one room family", and have the appropriate lights.  Thus, it seems that everything works.

BUT: when I go to the tab "Automation" in the app iPad Home, all I get is a page telling me that I should get an Apple TV to put in place of the automated activities - there is no way to actually DO something.  Am I missing something obvious?  I do this also?  Don't forget that I can control the lights in the House on the iPad, so they certainly know each other...  Thank you!

Looks like you are unable to configure Automation with your Apple TV. I would check that you have everything set up correctly with the steps described in this article:

Automate and remotely to your accessories HomeKit

If everything looks OK, then use the section 'Get help with your home hub' down. Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • How to record sound with 176, 4 kHz, and 192 kHz with hearing?

    How to record sound with 176, 4 kHz and 192 kHz with hearing on a MacBook Pro (Late2011, OS 10.10)?

    I bought an ADICON SSB audio analog digital converter (ssb-SEO).

    This device supports 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176,4 and 192 kHz 24 Bit Audio sample class 2.0.

    Sampling by hearing works perfectly between 44.1 and 96 kHz. Soon, I have try 176,4 or higher, hearing said that the input and output device is not the same sampling frequency.

    Saying this, the Mac output device is the build in audio and is limited to 96 kHz. In my case, I do need nit an output device, because I want only to save my music in the highest available sample rates, transfer to the PONO of Neil Young player and want to be happy.

    Can someone help me solve this problem?

    Thanks a lot for your answer. Products like AUDACITY can enjoy Audio with 192,000 Hz and they also support listen-true. I'm a fan of ADOBE and do not want to throw my up-front investments.

    Hope you understand what I mean.

    BTW:, I'm an actor PONO and work with files without loss. Sample notes 192 kHz 24 bit and love the freedom to hear music.

  • How to configure my PC for the first and after

    Hello:

    I have some problems with the Adobe software (especially with the first, after and Photoshop), when working with HD images (1920 x 1080 p, any format and with images of high resolution PH); the software will really slow sometimes when I use effects, such as the effects of correction of color or movement backward, or several cameras on first; the programs sometimes hang, or the empty screen to lose what I was doing...

    Here is the configuration of my PC:

    -Motherboard: Asus P9X79 PRO

    -Processor: Intel Core i7 - 4820 K 3.7 Ghz

    -Graphics card: GigaByte GeForce GTX 770 OC 4 GB GDDR5

    -RAM: G.Skill Trident X DDR3 2400 32GB PC3 - 19200 CL10 (32GB) 4x8Go

    -OS: Windows 7 Ultimate

    -Main hard disk: SSD SanDisk 256 GB SATA3

    I think with this PC, things must be faster, I tried to configure the RAM settings to give the software the max that I can, I've updated everything and I know that if I had an another SSD just for images, it would be better, but I've worked in other PC with a similar setup and they where faster... What should I do? How to check that everything is well configured?

    Thank you very much!

    PC hardware is not bad... as it goes.

    What you really need, is the other drives... usually a disk configuration 4-5 place the OS/programs on the C drive and many others, the following "bits": project files; cache/database files; preview files; media files.

    This would be a system 5 units, each option on a separate disk. And there are combos for running with 2, 3 or 4 drives total.

    The other option was an array of RAID - 0 4-6 disc scratched with your system drive.

    However ... Bill Gehrke, The expert on these things, reports rather incredible success using m.2 readers than a Samsung external T1, the latter able to run through a port USB3 (not nearly as high speed with external drives need more) and very usable read/write time with everything the program file being on the Samsung Q1 cross.

    Here is a link to Newegg to the referenced reader...

    Now, at $184 / USD, it's a bit spendy gig for the "disk space", BUT... it is big enough for most small to moderate users to have a few projects on at any given time. You just need to move things on and outside it as needed. But you compare the total cost of connection that versus purchase say disks 5 3/4-to & so that they know, it's significantly less expensive. And you can use external references USB3 large and cheaper for backend storage of work not in progress.

    So... maybe that would 'fix' your questions...

  • How to configure the Ethernet Apple TV connection

    With the new Apple TV Remote app how configure you a 3rd Gen Apple TV which is connected by ethernet? It seems that the Apple TV Remote app requires the Apple TV to be connected via WiFi.

    your router must enable DHCP, if you are having problems with the wired connection, you can reset the router to the default settings. See the page of Web developers for information on this.

    the remote control does not connect over wi - fi, so it does not matter if the device is on a network, or not the remote control is concerned.

    If you can't fix this, go to settings, forget the current network of wi - fi and restart the device

    If you are unable to connect with a wired connection, check the cable connection and verify that the cable works.

  • How to configure WIFI with WEP encryption?

    I have an Equium A50 and I am tring to set up on a network with a WEP code. I tried to connect to the network using the configfree software as it said but it still comes up with a fault on the configuration check tool. I tried the 4 networks of differnet computer to check the hardware and how it works on all of them. I'm stuck any ideas.

    Hello

    I put t know if you defined, but many routers support a hidden wireless LAN option.
    In this case, the wireless network is not visible. You should check the settings of your router.
    In addition if you want to use WEP encryption so you should go to the Wlan properties.
    You will find a wireless network tab. There you should find a wireless network of networks (if they are not hidden) you select the network and click Properties. There you should find an option to set the password for the encryption.

  • How to configure MQ with WLS (MQ JMS vs Native MQ)

    Hi all

    SOA Suite = 11.1.1.3
    MQ Series = 6.0
    JDeveloper = 11.1.1.3

    I would like to read/write data in an MQ is configured on a physical machine differs from the Weblogic Server box. But the two systems are on the same network. I did some research on the forums for the MQ configuration steps, but finally got confused with the following questions in mind.

    1. What is the difference JMS MQ / MQ native? How to choose the one to use?
    2. If native MQ can be used here, what are the steps to configure MQ Native on WLS in my situation?
    3. should I all foreign servers or bridges of message should be configured?

    Please provide directions or pointers.

    Kind regards
    Neeraj Sehgal

    1. What is the difference JMS MQ / MQ native? How to choose the one to use?

    MQ native made reference to an api owner provided by IBM in several languages, including java so that applications that run on these can communicate mq. IBM also provides JMS wrappers around this api native, a jms client can talk to mq using the JMS API. It's called MQ JMS.

    2. If native MQ can be used here, what are the steps to configure MQ Native on WLS in my situation?

    SOA suite provides an MQ resource adapter that can be used to connect to MQ. The developers of this resource adapter would have used the native api to enable the adapter to talk to MQ, so that you don't have to worry about this. However, you will need configure the properties of your local MQ (qmgr, q name etc.). This is done in the properties of outgoing connection of the adapter resources pool.
    Please check this blog for how to do this: http://soa-bpel-esb.blogspot.com/2009/09/configuring-mq-in-11g-soa-suite.html.
    Because your MQ installation is on a remote computer, you must configure the following properties specific to your environment - hostname, port, server connection channel, as well as the name of the queue manager and the queue name

    3. should I all foreign servers or bridges of message should be configured?

    Not required for your case if you use an adapter of MQ. Because MQ also provides a JMS transport, you would have required foreign servers if you use JMS instead of MQ adapter adapter. MQ Native should be faster than MQ JMS because it doesn't have the extra layer of JMS.

  • How to configure Messages with Facebook Messenger on El Capitan?

    Hello!

    Recently I tried to connect my account FB-Messenger Messages on OS X, using a Jabber account, [email protected] and my password Facebook. But I can't seem to connect using this method.

    Any of you know how to connect two applications on El Capitan 10.11.2?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    It is more can be done.

    All ID of Facebook.chat were closed by Facebook.

    They removed the Jabber server that was used for the ID Facebook.chat and the engine of their messaging inside the Facebook login regularly.

    This means that the external Jabber ID and applications that can access the Jabber server that exist can discuss is more directly to Facebook users.

  • How to maximize speeds with a Broadcom AC and R7000 card?

    Hi all
    I've updated my motherboard Asus Maximus VII impact with a Broadcom 802.11ac integrated network card. I think this is the model that bcm43xac_nt61 based on the device ID.

    On my band 5 GHz network, it will connect and if I click with the right button on the network and click on State of speed is listed at 866,5 Mbit/s. If I move the mouse over the network, it lists what it 802.11n and no ca. I get only 1-2 bars on the 5 GHz if band. With that, I can download steam up to 4.2 MB/s. I think it should be much larger.

    On my 2.4 Ghz network, I get 2 to 4 bars, speed is 144.0 Mbps, and I get up to 3.9 Mbps downloads.

    I have WMM active on the router, but, but not sure of what another tweak for this card. I changed a bunch of settings for my previous intel 7260, but erset after I got rid of this.

    Any ideas?

    See you soon,.
    Alex

    I changed all the settings. Immediately made the signal to jump her four-bar and then slowly go down to 1 or 2. Not much difference in download speed.

    But, I got a new Optimum modem, one with Docsis 3.0, the Arris TG862G and she welcomed my dl speeds for up to approximately 7.0 MB/s. Much better.

    Should I look for in get one of the high range Surfboard modems to increase speeds?

    And is there anything else you guys can think about the Broadcom adapter or the router to further increase the DL speeds?

    This is the antenna supplied with my motherboard. I would be better with a standard antenna?

    Spare antennas put like this will do anything or is it just gadget? How is it that they don't list it as 802.11ac compatible list?

    Thanks again

    See you soon

  • When "allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above" is not checked in the menu options, I can't see images on Web sites. How can I maintain with the box unchecked and always display images?

    I recently decided to spend autour colours in Firefox. I work in a fairly dark environment and have the dark color on white or light background text is quite difficult on my eyes in the dark.

    I changed the background to a dark gray, light gray text and visited the two and links not visited in a blue light. With these changes, I unchecked the "allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above" box.

    After unchecking the box, I'm more able to display images on many sites. Turn all grey images - as if Firefox has changed their image in part of the background. When I check the box, I am able to see fine pictures, however, Web sites typically return to their light background with dark text.

    Any help and assistance with this is greatly appreciated!
    Thank you!

    You can use the NoSquint extension to define the font size (zoom text/page) and colors of text on web pages.
