Chapter 8: Troubleshooting

The PC (“Home Server”) name is displayed but the shared folder(s) are not displayed.

The networked PC does not have shared folders set up correctly. See “Setting up file sharing on your PC” in Chapter 7 for details.

The TV’s user name and password do not match the PC’s. Make sure the user name and password settings in the TV exactly match the settings in the networked PC. User names and passwords are generally case sensitive.

E-mail scheduling problems

Cannot schedule a recording by e-mail

Select “Test” to confirm the e-mail scheduling setup (- page 68).

Select “Done” after setting up e-mail scheduling (- page 68).

See Chapter 7 in this manual.

E-mail test fails after waiting a long time

The Ethernet cables are not connected properly or at all. Connect all cables(- Installation Guide).

The DNS (domain name server) is not set up correctly. Check the network settings.

The SMTP and POP3 server settings are incorrect.

The “E-mail Address,” “Account,” or “Password” settings are incorrect. User names and passwords are generally case sensitive.

Receiving succeeds but sending fails, or vice-versa

The SMTP and POP3 server settings are incorrect.

The “E-mail Address,” “Account,” or “Password” settings are incorrect. User names and passwords are generally case sensitive.

Your Internet service provider may not support SMTP or POP3 protocols. Check with your ISP for details on supported protocols.

The e-mail test passes, but the TV never responds to the e-mails

Email scheduling is turned OFF. Turn e-mail scheduling ON (page 67).

The sender’s e-mail address is not the “Authorized E-mail Address.” Make sure the e-mail address you are using to send e-mails to the TV is the same as the “Authorized E-mail Address” in the TV’s e-mail scheduling setup. See “Setting up e-mail scheduling” in Chapter 7.

Note: Responses from the TV can often be delayed a few minutes, depending on e-mail/Internet service availability when you send the request e-mail.

An ADD or DELETE request e-mail returns an “INVALID MAIL VERIFICATION ID” reply

The e-mail authorization ID is not specified or is different from the TV settings. See “Setting up e-mail scheduling” in Chapter 7.

The e-mail was successfully sent but the recording or reminder did not work.

See “Setting the time and date” on page 27.
