STR-DN840: I made a mistake; should I return it?

Wow, not a good day as a buyer of Sony of long date. I don't know whether or not I made a mistake and hope that some here on the forum can advise you.

I took the receiver subject today to replace a much older system and does not work. While its main purpose is for the Interior and patio Audio, I would also use it on the oldest TV and AV equipment (all not HDMI). The plan is eventually replace box cable TV Ian in the room with HD thereafter, so I wanted to be ready.

Other than a comment in the manual, where was he never once mentioned that the only way to configure it with the OSD via HDMI. The monitor output, for some reason, does not support the OSD functions. OK, so after back with someone very unknowledged on the 'live chat', I finally gave up and moved a more recent HDMI set is room for installation purposes.

Question 2 - information about the Sony Apps for iPod allow to conclude that this device can be remotely controlled, but this does not seem to be case. I have access to the network, pandora and slacker all workers and the last update of the firmware, but the same (?) daughter of 'live chat', indicated that this receiver does not have the necessary support.

I don't know if she's confused or this new model 2013 is really not what I should have bought the other.

Thank you, Bill

Hello

I apologize for the misinformation, we have confirmed that you can use one of the following 2 applications to control this receiver.

  • Audio remote network: allows you to control network and features DLNA streaming services only.
  • TV SideView (in lieu of Media Remote App): allows a complete remote control of the functions of the receiver.  Pairing instructions are on Page 64 of the STRDN840 owner's manual .

  • I made a mistake of the HUGE Registry Editor

    So, I just recently finished building a new PC, and I have a primary ssd with 120 GB and a secondary hard drive for mass with 1 TB storage. I wanted things to install directly on my hard drive by default, this is drive D, while my SSD is drive C. I did what was said in this guide: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1792156/secondary-harddrive-question.html. However, I forgot to save and back up the registry editor, and instead to modify the data, I renamed the file program things that should have been the names of data. Now, I can't install anything because when I try to open it, it will show an error like that when I try to Open regedit. "C\:Windows\regedit.exe the system could not find the environment option that was entered. I'm sure it's not malware, because I built this pc last night at 90%. I open my browser, steam, etc. that I think because I installed them until I made the mistake with the registry editor.

    System Restore can be called in several ways, for example as follows:

    1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    2. Start the computer with your system repair CD. If you do not have one, ask a friend to burn you through the control panel / backup and restore. It takes less than five minutes.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the CD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    7. Configure Windows to a point before you hacked the registry.
  • Personal Adobe in Bangalore in India has made a mistake and disabled my Adobe Creative Cloud account without any notice. Adobe please help.

    I have a subscription to creative cloud (comprehensive plan), and the billing date is the 14th of each month . I received on September 13, a letter dated September 9 of Egypt (my credit card issuer) of Citibank informing me that they took the decision to stop all their activities of retail banking in Egypt. I applied for a new card with NBE and I contacted Adobe in Bangalore in India (serving the Middle East region) and informed them of this situation that was out of my hands, and I asked them for a solution. Their question was when I would receive my credit card, I informed them that I need 3 weeks according to the procedures of the Bank, therefore, the Adobe representative informed me that Adobe will give me a grace period to update the credit card and I can continue with my subscription.

    Unfortunately two weeks later, I found that my account has been disabled and when I contacted the Bangalore team they me transferred to each other for several times (to connect with 6 names) and in the end, they admitted that they made a mistake, but the solution is to buy a new subscription for Egp. 345/month instead of the amount of 205/month that I used to pay! When I asked them why? They said that the offer that I used when I subscribed the first time is not more valid! (it was a reduced rate because of my previous purchase a perpetual license), so I had to express my opposition because it wasn't my fault, and that they should keep their word for me, by the way, I don't have any notice of them they will be disables my account after only two weeks.

    As a result, they promised to escalate the case to their team and score my case as first priority so that their team responds within 24 hours. Unfortunately, that didn't happen and so far I do not have an answer. I have suffered much chatting for hours with these people without successful outcome. I have dealt with many Adobe staff levels in the United States. and I can truly say that they are in heaven and these people in this part of the world are in hiding. They have no respect for their words, they bring an extreme information contradicted by one a unique cat and they show that no care even if their attitude or info provided shows no skill at all. They caused me a lot of inconvenience and loss of business. What I have said here is documented with transcripts and e-mails sent to me.

    Headquarters of Adobe please help.

    I want to thank Chandra Mohan Dhasmana - Adobe technical support associate, who yesterday called to solve the above mentioned problem and now it's done. Recognizing.

  • My last Firefox no longer works and I can't fix it. I use Windows 8. I made the mistake of downloading DuckDuckGo. He immediately took over as my default

    My last Firefox no longer works and I can't fix it. I use Windows 8. I made the mistake of downloading DuckDuckGo. He immediately took over as my default browser and it would not allow me to change back. I realized that I had something that I had not needed so I tried to remove it. It took a morning full of accomplish this chore. I went back to Firefox and found that my tabs were there, but they were opaque and would not work. In fact, you could read what was beneath them. No way to get anything wthout return to the start page of Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and put it back on and it was always the same thing with the non operation of the opaque tabs. Troops you have good ideas as to how I can get my Firefox working again?

    The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
    Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions, open Web sites and preferences.

    To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

    1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
    2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
    3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
    4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

    Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

  • I am not happy with the new menu bar. I made a mistake in the change. Want to use the button refresh or open a new tab when requested without

    I made a mistake some how. I'm not the best a computer news as the new avg with the research changes. I want to return my old menu bar. I want to be able to open a new tab without going through an open search window. I don't like new tiny 'file above it don't help me. I want the option to click the Refresh button bit. How to get back to what I had before?

    I don't know what happened to your menus and toolbars. Has this happened after an update of Firefox, or a change in your add-ons?

    (1) you can switch between the Firefox button orange with its abbreviated menus and the classic menu bar, by using the following text:

    ALT + v (open the menu Classic view) > toolbars > Menu bar

    (2) in the new tab, you wanted it is empty? Are there currently AVG research? If you want to get rid of the search for AVG, you probably have to disable to remove one or more modules from here:

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules > category: Extensions

    Does make a difference?

    (3) the reload button is nestled at the end of the address bar, after the star icon and the drop-marker. If you prefer that your button to reload on the bar itself, you can do that using the personalization feature.

    ALT + v (open the menu Classic view) > toolbars > customize

    In order to avoid the button reload to slip into the URL bar, you can perform the following actions:

    • Move the button reload for the left side of the address box
    • Move another button between the address box and reload
    • Move another button between the reload and stop buttons
    • Reverse the order of the reload and stop buttons

    You can get as you wish?

  • I made the mistake of disabling all my USB ports in Device Manager! Keyboard & mouse do not work. I need to restore the Sys - HELP!

    I made the mistake to disable all my USB ports in the device (Windows XP Home Edition) my mouse Manager and the keyboard works not because they are connected through USB ports. I need to find a way to get to the system restore through the Mode without failure or normal startup. Can someone please help!

    Hi PaulCanik,

    • Do you use your laptop or desktop computer?

    Check if keyboard works in basic input/output system (BIOS), if it works, then you will need to enable USB port from there.

    You will need to contact the manufacturer of the computer to aid in the basic input/output system (BIOS).

    If this does not help then you need to connect PS\2 mouse and activate later all USB ports on the computer.

    Important: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • How to let an author of a book of Cisco or video know that they made a mistake?

    I would like to know if anyone knows how to politely approach the author of a Cisco supported the publication on an erroneous interpretation of a topic.

    I'll give you two examples; do not attempt to disrespect the authors, but to help anyone who may be prepare for the CCNP ROUTE exam. (I certainly know more than the great authors.)

    (1)  Rohit Pardasani erred when he explained what the command "ip multicast of PNDH card { |}". dynamic}' is for CCNP routing and switching ROAD 300-101 Exam Prep video. Other documents that I found and experience true 'laboratory' goes against his understanding or explanation of the command. It's still a rough cut, so it can be changed in time. It's a great resource otherwise.

    (2) Kevin Wallace also erred in CCNP routing and switching ROAD 300 - 101 full video course made a mistake in explaining how to calculate the bandwidth * delay product. What I found explains that the delay IS round-trip (RTT), including RFC 1072 time.

    If I'm wrong, please correct me. Also, I'm doing this because I'm sick and tired of questions wrong or ambiguous in various Cisco exams.

    Thank you

  • My STR DN840 cannot hold a stream of high quality network

    My STR DN840 cannot hold a 320mbs network stream. The same router is attached to my TV 4K, and it streams HD content with no dropouts. The receiver is unable to maintain a stream of high quality for more than a few minutes. There is another technology of networking on the receiver?

    Continuously on my XBR65HX900A works fine most of the time. The problem is with streaming audio of high quality on the receiver of 840 DN STR. It is connected to my router via a switch that shares with the TV signal and which is in turn connected to my router via ethernet through current domestic. The speed is 8mps.
