How can I change the opacity of a symbol without changing the individual opacities of symbols within it?

I'm trying to do a crossfade between two movie clips, but they each have symbols within them. The Flash I'm using is CS4.
In other words, how can I stop this from happening?
Thanks in advance!

It has nothing to do with symbols inside the movieclip.  If you fade the opacity a movieclip you see thru it.  If you want to fade from one to the other without seeing both at the same time then you need to fade them sequentially (one after the other) so that the background color is shown during the fade.
If you were to have a rectangle of the background color and fade tha in and out over the movieclips , switching the movieclips one atop the other half way thru that cycle that would be one way.

    You cannot use the Japanese iTunes Store unless are physically present there and have a Japanese payment method. This applies even for free apps; you cannot get them from the Japanese iTunes Store if you are in the US.
    If you are in Japan, you can set up a new iTunes Store account just to get free apps. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
    If you have moved to Japan and wish to change the country of your account permanently, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask them to clear your remaining balance. You will need to be able to provide a Japanese payment method, though.

    How can i transfer iPhone 3G photo to iPhoto without repeating the same photo to iPhoto?

    Sorry, you question doesn't make sense. If you're trying to import photos, in your camera roll, to iPhoto, iPhoto doesn't import them twice.

    How can you upload photos from iPhoto to FaceBook without having the sync where if you delete from iPhoto you delete

    I think you have to have the files on your HD. So either put them in iPhoto or copy them to a folder in Finder, and from there you can upload to Facebook.

  • How can I add an iPad to Apple Configurator without losing the user's settings, folders, etc?

    When attempting to add an iPad that has already been in use (for some time) by a particular user into Apple Configurator, I end up having to either wipe the iPad entirely as if it is a new iPad, or restore the user's settings and configuration from iCloud during mini-setup. It seems to be one choice or the other.
    Is there a way to add the "old" iPad into Apple Configurator for management purposes yet still be able to restore the user's settings from iCloud? That is - items like: folders, pictures, email settings, app data?

    This isnt true. Connecting an unsupervised device to configurator and supervising it will wipe the device, there is no way around that. You can attempt an iCloud restore from here, but anything not backed up prior to supervising the device will be erased when supervising it. I have never tried to restore data from an unsupervised iPad so I have no clue if everything will come back.
    Let me clarify... You can successfully restore an iCloud backup of an unsupervised iPad to a new (i.e. different) iPad and have it Supervised with data intact. The process below will allow Configurator to Supervise a device without wiping it when an iCloud backup from a different unsupervised iPad is restored to it.
    Try it… Get 2 new unsupervised iPads… we'll call them iPad "A" and iPad "B." Take iPad "A" and install a few apps, take a few photos, change the background, create a new document in Pages, etc. Run an iCloud backup of iPad "A" using your Apple ID. This is our unsupervised backup of iPad "A."
    Now take new unsupervised iPad "B" and start running through the setup assistant. When you get to the restore screen, choose to restore from iCloud backup. Log in with your Apple ID. Select the backup for iPad "A." The backup will restore and then the iPad will restart. Once it restarts, you get to a "Hello" screen on the iPad. At this point, plug the iPad into your Configurator computer. On the Prepare screen, turn Supervision ON and select "Don't restore backup." Click Prepare.
    Configurator will not wipe the iPad. It will run through the supervision process but not wipe it. Once complete, you'll see that iPad "B" is now exactly the same as iPad "A", but if you go to Settings -> General -> Profiles on iPad "B" you will see a Supervision profile installed.
    The key here is to use a different iPad from the originally backed up iPad. You can't restore the backup of iPad "A" to iPad "A" again and supervise it without wiping it. But you can take the backup of unsupervised iPad "A" and restore it to iPad "B" and retain apps, data, and settings of iPad "A" but with the Supervision profile.
    Hope this clarifies things!

    I see where your going with that. I dont have any way to reproduce this scenario in my environment, but I will take your word for it that this works. I have only ever plugged in an unsupervised device to configurator and gone through the setup, which always wipes the device. If your saying theres a way around that you should give that a shot OP.

    The computer where i have my itunes library is no longer accessible.  How can I add new songs to my  Ipod nano without losing the song already on it?

    You will need that library copied from the old computer. If not, then you can take a look at this in getting 3rd party software to recover your library from the iPod. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • How can i add a hashmap to another hashmap without lossing the second one?

    hi all
    can anyone show me how to add a hashmap object to another hashmap object without lossing anything that was in the second one. thanks

    hi all
    can anyone show me how to add a hashmap object to
    another hashmap object without lossing anything that
    was in the second one. thanksDo you want to add the hashmap itself to the hashmap? If so:firstMap.put("someKey", secondMap); should do it. But I suspect you want to add all key/value pairs from the second map to the first, in which case the "putAll" method is what you're looking for. Note that the putAll method will replace the values in the first map with any values with the same key that are in the second map.
    Good Luck

  • How can i outline an object made of shapes without outlining the individual shapes or marging them

    How can i outline a visual shape made of a group of elements (vector shapes) without outlining the individual elements or margeing them togeather. I would normally go by marging them togeather but client requested they be unmaged

    Here is another way
    similar but a little different
    group the objects
    select the group in the appearance panel and go to Effects>Path>Outline Object
    then add a new stroke to the Group
    then select that stroke in the appearance panel and go to Effect>Pathfinder>Add
    the go to Effect>Path>offset path if you wish to give it some space around the object like such

  • How  can I open a document that i saved without buying the latest pages?

    I saved two documents last week and now I can not open them without "buying the latest version of pages"  Is there anyway to save this information without being forced to buy new software.   I have been happy with my old pages and saved it with my old pages and not I can not open it with out buying the new version.  I feel that apple is holding my document hostage.  Any help would be appreciated.

    DM,
    You probably already have V5 without knowing it. Unless someone else edited your documents with V5, it was you, and you just need to make sure that you are using V5 for edits.
    Right-Click the docment in Finder and choose Open With: Pages V5.x
    I'd be surprised if you didn't find that option.

  • My Apple TV is having problems with slideshows for photos synced from iTunes. How can I make it play thew whole slideshow without starting the loop again half way through?

    My Apple TV randomly returns to the beginning in the middle of the slideshow for no reason. I don't habve the photos on shuffle
    I started the slide show many times and somtimes it got through 20 photos, other times 50. Then all of a sudden, it goes back to the beginning and starts again. It's so frustrating as there is no reason for this and it doesn't loop back to the start on the same photo each time. I have about 350 photos in the album and they all loaded fine as thumbnails before I played the slideshow.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks, Adam

    Have solved my own problem. My PC sits on the floor so I have a four-port USB hub on my desktop with one port in use. I use one of the other three ports for USB-related task. As I was shutting down for the night I had a - what turned out to be inspired - thought about whether there was an adequate power supply from the hub. I then tried the iPod USB connection directly into the front of my machine and everything worked. It seems that an inadequate power supply was the cause of this strange set of conditions.

  • How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

    My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
    So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

    The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app.  Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
    If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
    Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

    You can't - it the entire operating system or none at all.
    Only way to keep your OS is to use a third party web browser - besides firefox - there is also Opera - have been using that with Snow Leopard for about 6 months.

  • How can i paste text from Numbers too Pages without getting the box/frames?

    I have a big list in numbers with a lot of text in each line. I need to copy/paste it in to a pages document but i don't want the frames to come along.

    Hi Carl,
    Pasting from a Numbers table into Pages will paste a table (frames). There is no "Convert Table to Text" command in Pages 5.
    Paste into TextEdit. That will strip all formatting (including the table) and leave plain text. If your Numbers table had more than one column, the text will become Tab-Delimited. Before you paste into TextEdit, make sure the blank document is plain text (if you see Make Rich Text under the Format menu, you have a plain text document).
    Select All, Copy, then Paste into Pages.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How can I add new music to my ipod without losing the music already loaded on another computer

    That is correct, you can only sync your iPod to one library at a time.
