Is there a quick way to fit everything in the Title/Action Safe Areas ?

Hi,
(sorry in advance for my english, I'm a french canadian)
I built a complete DVD without realizing that I should consider the "Safe Areas" (see my first post : "Formatting in 4:3 but image is still stretched on a 4:3 TV. What the... ?"), so now I'm stuck with a 12 hours project that show only some part on TV.
Something strange too is that I first thought what was shown corresponded to the "Action Safe Area", but I just realized that both sides are cut like the "Title Safe Area" and top/bottom are cut like the "Action Safe Area". It's not one or the other, it's a mix of both. What causes that ?
What I need to know now is if there is a way to compress all the DVD or make everything to fit quickly in the viewable area so I will not have to fit everything one by one.
Thanks for your help.
P.S.
The 4:3 simulation mode should specifiate the overscanning process in the application when we use it, so it would solve a lot of problem in the first place.

Is there a quick way to "fit all" in the arrange window?

Does LP8 have a quick way to fit everything in the arrange window from any magnification level? Something comparable to double-clicking on the magnifying glass in Pro Tools?
For instance, let's say you've made your tracks very tall by control-down-arrowing a bunch of times. Now you want to quickly go back to having every track header showing in the arrange window. At first I thought that the key command "control-option-z" (zoom to fit selection horizontally and vertically) would work if you command-a selected all regions first. That does work horizontally, but if I have a region at the bottom of my track headers, that command does not seem to work vertically. The region at the bottom is still out of view.
One thing I tried was going to the key commands dialogue box and assigning option-2 to "save as zoom 1" and option-3 as "recall zoom 1." But when I start with everything visible in the arrange window, then hit option-2 to save that zoom level, then use the magnifying glass a bunch of times to make everything big, then hit option-3, it does not take me back to the original zoom level that I "saved" as option-2.
If the only way to get back to square one is to start there, then control-option-marquee-select to magnify a few times, then control-option-click on the background the same number of times to get back to where you started, well, OK, I will live with that.
But I am thinking there must be an easy way to "fit everything in window" with just one click, or maybe some kind of key-modified click.
Any advice much appreciated,
Jim

OK, thanks for the advice, Erik. I was hoping not to have to use the zoom sliders or the stretch scrollbars method, since it's not as fast as a one-click or double-click method.
One other possibility I was investigating today was saving a screenshot and then recalling it. The manual says:
Saving and Recalling Screensets
Screensets are numbered from 1 to 99 (using only the 1 to 9 computer keys—the 0 key
is assigned to the Stop command by default).
You don’t need to save screensets with an explicit command. It happens automatically,
as soon as you switch to another screenset. Thus, without any effort, your current
working view is always stored as the current screenset.
To create a screenset:
1 Press a numerical key, say 7.
For two-digit screensets, hold down Control while entering the first digit.
2 Arrange your windows as desired, including changes to zoom settings, relationship of
the Arrange area and editor areas, open or closed Inspector and Media or Lists areas,
and so on.
To recall, or switch between screensets, do one of the following:
m Input the number of the desired screenset (1 to 9).
I thought that had real possibilities. Make the arrange window the size of my whole project to begin with, then save it as, say, screenset 3. Then if I zoom in on a wave form or change the size of everything, just recall screenset 3 to get back. Unfortunately, it apparently constantly keeps track of all your changes, so if you zoom within screenset 3 and then try to recall the screenset 3 that you saved, it just takes you to where you are currently, after all the zooming. I don't understand why Logic thinks that helps you, but that's how it seems to work.
Anyway, I've spent enough time on it. I give up. I guess I will use control-left-arrow, control-right-arrow. Unfortunately, you cannot do them both at the same time, it seems, which would be faster. Oh, well.

Is there a quick way to erase everything right back to like new?

There are two methods, a reinstall of OS X only and a erase and install, which will wipe out your data and programs.
With 10.7 and later operating system versions, you really can't go back to exactly the way OS X was when you first bought it as Apple downloads OS X now and won't give a older copy, only the most recent updated issue in that version.

Is there a quick way in the print dialog to print at 50% opacity?

I want to save toner by printing a very black document at 50% opacity. Is there a quick way to do this in the print dialog box?
Dual 1Ghz Power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

It would depend on your printer driver. The availability and location of that setting is something that varies from printer to printer. For instance at school, printing on HP LaserPrinters it is an option under Image Quality with 3 choices (Default, SaveToner, Best Quality). At home, printing on a Canon bubblejet, it is a slider for intensity. On a previous HP inkjet, it was a slider for darkness.
Once you find it (if your driver has the option) you can save the setting by clicking the Presets button.

Hello, Gazzlaa84.
You can import your media a couple different ways. If you plan on keeping the media on the external drive, I would just direct iTunes to read the media folder on the external. Here are the steps on how to make that change.

You can restore your iPad with your iPhone backup but items that are iPhone only will not transfer. It should recreate all your folders. It can't hurt anything to try.

All the tunes in my library have duplicated. 1,1,2,2,3,3, etc. Is there a quick way of deleting the duplicates? I have Windows 7.

in iTunes Mac there is in the File menu "show duplicates", should be there too in the windows version of iTunes. Just mark every double and delete it from the library.

Is there a quick way to convert Albums to Projects?

Due to bringing in legacy organizing from iView MediaPro into Aperture years ago... I have an organizational structure consisting of few top level Projects containing many Albums. I now realize I should have few top level Folders containing many Projects (which contain Albums when necessary).
So the question is... is there a quick way to convert an Album to a Project? If I have to create a new Project for each Album I have by hand... this will take forever as I have hundreds of Albums.
Thanks!

Doing it manually is what I'm trying to avoid... I have a LOT of albums. I started trying to script it but I am trying to piece it together with my uber limited applescript knowledge... here's what I've got:
tell application "Aperture 3"
set imgSel to (get selection)
if imgSel is {} then
error "Please select an image."
else
set pName to name of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set pID to id of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set cID to id of parent of parent of item 1 of imgSel
tell library "Aperture Library"
make new project with properties {name:pName}
repeat with i from 1 to count of imgSel
move item i of imgSel to project (pName)
end repeat
end tell
end if
end tell
It's ghetto (there's some stuff I need to comment out that wasn't used) and it seemed to work in the test library I setup, but when I went back there were some weird thumbnail issues so I'm scared... not to mention it doesn't seem to work in the actual library for some reason. It won't create the new project. Weird.

Just the regular way. Take the photo and then open the Messages app and select that photo and send it. That does not seem hard.

Is there a quick way to replace entire sets of styles?

I am currently working on updating InDesign templates that the rest of our team use to start translating different versions of our books. In the template we have the guides and text boxes all created as well a sets of styles to use.. (Headers, Body, Captions..etc).
They started on an older version of this template and I've just updated it by re-defining all the styles. Is there a way I can replace a document's styles with an entirely new set?
The styles are all named the same from the previous versions - but currently I still have to go delete each style and apply the 'new' style - one by one. This takes a while when we have nearly 100 styles. Is there a quicker way to do this? Or am I looking at this whole template thing wrong?
Is there a tutorial or a video explaining the philosophy behind these templates? Basically, we create new books or documents all the time and although they go to different typesetters, I would like them all to use the same 'standard' styles.

When you load styles that have the same names you should get a dialog that lets choose whether to update the existing style with the incoming style or rename the incoming:
