Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
Home server setup problems
The PC (“Home Server”) name is not displayed
• The Ethernet cables are not connected properly or at all.
Connect all cables (- Installation Guide).
• The network setup on the PC is incorrect. Make sure both
the PC and TV are using the same network type (DHCP/
manual) and have compatible network settings.
• The networked PC does not have shared folders set up
correctly. See “Setting up file sharing on your PC” in
Chapter 7 for details.
• There are no master browsers on the network. To
configure your networked PC to be the master browser of
its subnet, refer to your operating system user guide or
consult an IT professional.
• Too many sharing devices are connected. You cannot
connect more than 16 sharing devices at one time.
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

(- page 76).
• Select “Done” after setting up e-mail scheduling
(- page 76).
• See Chapter 7 in this manual.

• 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,” “POP3 User Name,” or “POP3
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,” “POP3 User Name,” or “POP3
Password” settings are incorrect. User names and
passwords are generally case sensitive.

supported protocols.
The e-mail test passes, but the TV never responds to
the e-mails
• E-mail scheduling is turned Off. Turn e-mail scheduling
On (page 76).
• 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.

reminder did not work.

ISP.
