Strange position and size when QT opens

I'm a Windows user. My Canon Ixus 220 HS digicam has a neat 1920x1080 movie capability. It creates files in MOV format.
But when I play these on my Windows XP PC, QT always opens offset down and right (100,100) and at a size of 1936 x 1205, which is greater than my 1920x1200 screen!
Here's an example:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4019461/QT-Puzzle-1.jpg
So I can't see the controls until I use View > Half Screen.
This is becoming a real PITA, so I hope one of the experts can suggest a fix please.
In case it helps, here's what MediaInfo reports for a typical MOV file:

It seems this is a long-standing problem that Apple have not not bothered to fix.

When I set all the tracks in the latest Garageband to the same volume levels and save, when I open the file again they've changed back to a previous setting?

I'm trying to mix a recording in the latest 2014 version of Garageband, but when I set all the tracks in the latest Garageband to the same volume levels and save, when I open the file again they've changed back to a previous setting? Does anyone know why it changes even after saving the file?
Below is my iMac settings.

Do you have a back up?
If not you're into using file recovery software like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

How do I set the default window size when I open a Numbers 3.0 document

How do I set the default window size when I open a Numbers 3.0 document?
When I open an existing document it always open too small, I resize it but next time I open it it's small again! Please help! I used to be able to resize them then they stayed that size until I resized it no matter how many times I opened and closed it before upgrading to 3.0!!!!

This document can help you set the print settings for any type of printing. Not just for photos as the title suggests. You should not have to keep setting it every time.

How do I set "US letter" as my default paper size when I open a document?

I'm using Adobe Reader 9.5.5 and Mac OS 10.7.5.
Every time I open a PDF that's been emailed to me, Reader thinks it's US legal size, 11" x 14". Printing the document becomes a mess, unless I first remember to go File > Page setup > Paper size > US letter.
I'd like to be able to set US letter as my default paper size when I open a document. Can anyone tell me how to do that?
Thanks in advance,

I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.

Panel position and size

Is there a way to set a panel's x/y position and size using PS scripting? If someone could point me to some documentation on this, that would be hugely appreciated!

I don't think you can set the position of a custom panel. It seems to open where ever it was last closed. But you can set the size.

Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

Downloaded Firefox update for my Mac and now when I open it, there is a white box at the top of the page with a grey bar in it that I can't get rid of

I updated my firefox browser for my Mac and now, when I open it, an empty white box appears at the top of the page with only a gray bar in it. It over lays the Firefox home page and I can't get rid of it, so I can't click on anything on the Firefox page. I tried deleting Firefox and redownloading it, but that didn't help. I have to force quite Firefox to get out of it. Help!

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

Hello! I used QuickTime for watch any videos on OS X Mountain Lion, but now, I'm passed to OS X Mavericks and QuickTime, when I open an .avi file, convert this in a .mov file. I'm sorry for my English, I'm French and I don't know speak English very well, but what can I do for QuickTime opens on .avi and doesn't convert to .mov?

HI GalaxieMusique,
I'm french too, but I'm going to write this post in english so that everyone may understand it
I have the same problem in Mavericks, but I'd say, more important, with QuickLook.
Indeed Quicklook can't read avi movies anymore. Actually it always been the case, but with Perian we were able to fix it. The problem is that Perian is no longer available for Mac OS 10.9....
I'd assume that our only hope is Apple themselves... It would be nice from Apple to creat an add-on for quicklook to be able to preview the avi movies.
In regards with quicktime, you can download QuickTime 7 here:
http://www.01net.com/telecharger/windows/Multimedia/lecteurs_video_dvd/fiches/10 0.html
and ask all the .avi movies to be played by QuickTime 7 and not QuickTime X (included into Mac OS).
Sorry for the english, we french people can make mistakes sometimes
If anyone has a solution for QuickLook, please do not hesitate. This topic is becoming a real mess....

My Windows XP software recently had an automatic update and now when I open iTunes, I receive the message "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes."
I have not used iTunes for several weeks so the issue may not be related to the last Windows XP automatic upgrade. I have never had problems with iTunes in the past. Is this a real message or perhaps a virus?
Before I reinstall iTunes, any thoughts?

It's a real message.
Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now?

Sorry but, i've never seen formula editor for altering position and size. If you know one please navigate me.
I guess you have updated formula editor beside "Lock size and position" - if yes its not right. There is only one editor beside 4 items and editor is actually for Suppress.
Anyways, A trick to change size a position is:
Create 4-5 copies (as many as you expect positions) of the text object. place each at different positions, right click, Format, Suppress and in formula editor for suppress write the formula: If your condition is true, Suppress=false, else true.
Position will not change but user will feel; for different conditions -position is changed
Hope this helps.

I downloaded Firefox 4.01 and now when i open a new tab, i get a blank page, instead of my home page. How do I change that? Thanks

I downloaded Firefox 4.01 and now when i open a new tab, i get a blank page instead of my home page. How can I default to my home page when a new tab opens?

You can do that by using an add-on such as:
* NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
* New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

How can i lock the position and size of all of my .app windows?

I have had this problem for a few months now; I would size the window of one of my apps (lets use safari for example) exactly the size i want it, then i position it exactly in the center of my screen because I'm OCD like that, then I'm just browsing the internet and i accidentally move the window so then i have to move it back. Sometimes it gets even worse and for whatever reason, my cursor is down in the lower right part of my window and i accidentally size it, then i have to go back and resize it to where it was. Please help me! there has to be a way to lock my windows positions and sizes! is there a widget or a program out there that can save my life?! Thanks haha

AFAIK, there isn't. All I can suggest is that you quit clicking and dragging the cursor. Use the arrow keys to scroll up and down. I don't have a laptop, but there might be a trackpad setting for the various swipe stuff that comes with them.

How can i change the position and size of the applet

dear fellows,
how can i change the position and size of the applet in which form is running over the web.
thanx

Yes, you can add the following line to your formsweb.cfg section :
HTMLbodyAttrs=onLoad='javascript:self.moveTo(100,100)'
if you are in SEPERATEFRAME = FALSE
Or Set_Window_Property( FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, POSITION, X, Y ) ;
if you are in SEPERATEFRAME = TRUE

My Ipad was upgraded and now when I open a book in Kindle it will not open the book and just takes me back to the opening screen of my IPAD. This happen after a upgrade to some IOS. Help.

My IPAD was upgraded and now when I open a book in Kindle it will not open and reverts back to opening screen of the IPAD and this occurred after some upgrade with IOS.Help.

The app may not be iOS6 compatible. Have you tried to reset it? HOld down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red slider, and unitl you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps. If it doesn't, then I'd contact Kindle and see when they're going to update their app or if they even know there's an issue. Unfortunately, the burden is on app developers to be compatible with the operating system, not on the OS to be compatible with millions of apps. So it's up to them.

My Macbook Air slid off my bed and now when you open it it clicks, and the sound sometimes doesn't work and i have to restart it in order to make it work

and now when you open it it clicks in the back left corner. And before now the sound would be working fine and then i would put the laptop in sleep mode and when i would try to use it later the sound wouldnt work and i would have to restart it.

Take it to an Apple store to be checked out and an estimate on the cost of replacing the parts that broke from the fall off the bed.
