It's most likely exactly what Titus suggested. One other thing you can do, in
addition to providing the HTML he asked for, is to see how many elements there
are that match. Stuff like this:
b.checkboxes(:id => 'sv').length # More than 1? If so, the one you want may be
one of the others
b.checkboxes(:id => 'sv').find_all { |cb| cb.present? }.length # Count of how
many are accessible.
b.checkboxes(:id => 'sv').each { |cb| cb.set if cb.present? } # Set any that
are accessible.
...and variations of that, kind of like how you were doing it below...

I just replied to your stackoverflow post. Please provide the applicable html.
If `when_present` times out, then something is hiding the element, and that is
likely at the root of your issue.
