Hi my av500 100gb will power on but remains freeze on the start up screen. Can not access the video,music, and photo folders. What should i do?? Thanks

Set up your PS3
Step 1: Make sure your PS3 is connected to the same network (via Ethernet or wireless) as your computer. You can check your connection by going to Settings > Network Settings.
Step 2: Go to Settings > Network Settings > Media Server Connection on your PS3 and set it to "Enabled."


Set up your computer (PC)
Step 1: Download and install the latest version on Windows Media Player.
Step 2: Go to Library > Add to Library and add folders you want your PS3 to access. All personal folders (Photos, Videos, and Music) are selected by default, but if you have media in other folders, add them.
Step 3:. Go to Library > Media Sharing, and check "Share Media." Press "OK," then wait a few moments for your PS3 to show up as one of the devices. Then select it, click "Allow," then "OK."


OR


Set up your computer (Mac)
Step 1: Download and install PS3 Media Server (free). This will allow your PS3 to "see" your Mac.
Step 2: Connect to the same network as your PS3.
Step 3: Go to Navigation/Share Settings and uncheck everything in the Thumbnails section (at the top). Then, at the bottom, add folders you want your PS3 to access. You can choose to add your entire hard drive, but it's helpful to add shortcuts to folders like Music, Videos, and Pictures.
Step 4: Go to Transcoding Settings, and change the Maximum bandwidth to 14 or 15. If you have a very strong network connection, leave it at 0. If you don't have a 5.1 surround sound theater, go to the "Number of audio channels" settings and change it to "Stereo."
Step 5: At the top, hit "Save" and "Restart HTTP Connection."




Stream your media
Step 1: Go back to your PS3, and your computer's name will be listed under the Photos, Videos, or Music tabs. You need to be in the Music section on your PS3 to play music, in the Photos section to see photos, and in the Videos section to play videos. You cannot play copyrighted material.
Here are a few extra tips:

• When viewing a photo, hit the button to view extra options, like starting a slideshow of images in the selected folder.
  
• When listening to music, you can keep it playing in the background by hitting the PlayStation (home) button.
  
• You can copy music, photos, and videos onto your PS3 hard drive. When viewing a file, hit the button and select "Copy."
  

Hi possible the Video card is busted on the LCD, get in BIOS see if the screen will still remain Bak if it does then the LCD is busted, get in safemode if the issue is still the same then it is the LCD but if there is Video in safe mode the issue is the video card
To get in safe mode keep on tapping F8 as soon as you power the Laptop To get in BIOS keep on tapping Del or F1 as soon as you power the Laptop

Hi,

The TV will only detect USB Devices if it is formatted in FAT32 format.
Files from a USB device need to be compatible with the following file formats.

- Still images: JPEG format or RAW format (preview only)

- Music: MP3 format

- Video: AVCHD, MP4 (AVC) or MPEG1 format (not playable in some cases)

Make sure that you're using the compatible file formats in the USB Drive.

Also check if the USB Drive which you're using is compatible with the TV.

Click here to check the list of compatible devices which Sony recommends,

The accessible file or folder limit in a directory is 1,000 for USB. This limit includes non-supported files or just folders. Files or folders are populated based on their time stamps. Photo, music files or folders exceeding the limit will not be displayed.

Check if the above mentioned criteria meets the requirements.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Hello,

Like most players, the device should contain 3 folders with the name
Music
Photo
Video.
Media is on the player, each type has its their specific folder name (should be int the matching location).
If deleted, make new folder names Music, Photo and Video.

When having problems with making a connection to the computer:
>
Having a version 1 player, the e280 (written on the backside):
1. On your Sansa player, press and hold the Power/Menu button for 15 seconds to turn the device completely off.
2. Slide the Hold switch so the orange portion shows.
3. On your PC, double-click My Computer (on MAC, open the desktop screen)
4. On your Sansa player, press and hold the REC button while connecting it to the PC.
5. Release the REC button when a 16MB-FORMAT drive partition appears under My Computer (on MAC, on the desktop screen)
>
Having a version 2 player, the e280v2 (written on the backside):
For step 1, 2, 3 and 5 follow the same steps as for version 1.
Only for step 4:
4. Press and hold the ( |<< ) button on your player, while connecting to the PC.

Hi skillet3716,

Format a USB drive as FAT32 file system (NTFS will not work with PS3), create a folder called "VIDEO" (without "s), put the video in there.
name new folders "PICTURE" and "MUSIC" for those types of files as well.

The PS3 will also allow you to access a variety of media file formats from the video, music and photo menus of the Cross Media Bar.

VIDEO
# MPEG-1
# MPEG-2 (PS,TS)
# H.264/MEPG-4 AVC
# MPEG-4 SP

MUSIC
# ATRAC (.oma .msa .aa3)
# AAC (.3gp .mp4)
# MP3 (.mp3)
# WAV (.wav)

IMAGES
# JPEG
# GIF
# PNG
# TIFF
# BMP

Regards
R.K.

When you transfer the music or photos, place them in the correct folders in Root. Also, you can you should drop the files either directly in their respective folders (i.e. music in Music and photos and Photos) or you can put them in their own folders (i.e. Music\Artist or Music\Name of CD) do not go more than 2 folders deep. (while you can do Music\Artist you cannot do Music\Artist\Album).

Option 1 (Internal Memory):

• Connect the GPS to your computer with a supplied USB cable
• For Windows, go to My Computer and find the connected drive (Removable Disk), when you open this disk you should see MobileNavigator folder
• From the root of this drive, you can create 3 folders: Photos, Music, Videos and copy your media files respectively
• Safely Remove Hardware the connected unit and unplug
• Select your player/viewer (Photos, Music, Videos)
• By default the internal memory (a can shape icon) is selected
• Now enjoy your media

Option 2 (SD Card):

• Assume your computer has a SD card reader
• Insert the SD card to your computer
• From the root of this drive, you can create 3 folders: Photos, Music, Videos and copy your media files respectively
• Insert the card to the Sanyo GPS
• Select your player/viewer (Photos, Music, Videos)
• Tab the internal memory option (a can shape) to change to SD card option (sd card shape) to access files on SD card
• Now enjoy your media

first the easy part....1800 songs we will not move this one at a time..............plug ipod to pc..open itunes....see on left hand side of screen...pc (music,photo & video folders) and under that ipod (music, photo, video folders)..ok..click on pc (music folder) all your music shows up right ok..this time click & drag the pc (music) down to the ipod music folder and release....its 1800 songs so lets wait til the ipod is finish (look at the ipod file a circular motion is happening,,,,its loading).......once finish always eject your ipod...............now find where you are storing mp3 / mp4 on your pc...once you find it ..go to top bar view then click,on view details (artist,album,type,lenght) this where it will say mp3/4/wma/wav or flac file

Don't know what I did but after the third time unconnected then reconnecting to my laptop's usb ports the TD350A's screen changed to the usb symbol with a computer screen next to it.
(shot in the dark answer is that one or the other device timed out during the usb plug and play set up)

I still haven't figured out what happened when it froze, but I solved the other problem... I just switched the options to "show hidden icons" for some reason those four folders were shown as hidden.
