  • Geometry-Dimensions- Why can't I change these

    I'm Converting SD-IMX* video to MPEG**. The video always comes out as 640x480. I need the video to output as 720X480.
    In the Geometry pane the dimension settings are always locked-out. Program Stream is what I would like to use use, but I have tried the others (Even MPEG1) and I'm always locked out of the dimensions.
    In the Encoder Pane under "Video Format" there are some size choices, but they are ALL 640 wide. Is that the only size MPEG2 can do? Under MPEG1 the only size choice is 352x240, and I'm sure I have seen MPEG1's in other sizes.
    What do I need to change so that I can make adjustments to the dimensions?
    *Apple MPEG IMX 525/60 (30 Mb/s), 720 x 486
    **Need an MPEG stream with muxed audio included at 720x480 interlaced in order to upload into a very picky server.

    some of the mpeg presets are locked out like this. It's a pain. There is a set of presets by Nate Beaman calle CRAM.
    http://www.compressorpack.com/
    He unlocked the parameters to give more control over mpeg conversions. Check it out, contact him if you want to ask a specific question. He's a good guy, and will answer you promptly. If he doesn't, tell me, and I'll run across the hall and kick him for you.

  • .mac family pack. Why can't I change these addresses any more?

    I bought a family pack years ago and set up email addresses for family members and one for a vacation rental we had. We no longer own the vacation rental and I want to delete that account and set up a new .mac address for what we are now doing? I used to have to pay for the email accounts. Are they now free?

    There is no DotMac or MobileMe any more. Each of your Family Pack accounts should have been migrated individually to iCloud, but even if you didn't do that you should be able tro re-enable the addresses (though not access any previous contents) by signing in in System Preferences>iCloud.
    You cannot delete Apple IDs or iCloud accounts, but if the account you refer to wasn't migrated it's not active anyway. You cannot re-use the address in another account, and though you can set up new iCloud accounts you cannot create @mac.com addresses, only @icloud.com addresses. There is no Family Pack facility in iCloud.
    iCloud is free at basic level with 5GB storage; you can purchase extra storage if you wish.

  • I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • HT5463 In my opinion, when the Silence setting is "only when the device is locked", it contradicts the settings you set above, like Manual. Can someone explain how these settings work together?

    Can someone explain how these settings work together? Manual seams to contraduct the SILENCE setting at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb page. It's very confusing.

    You should have seen information in the support document that you linked from. It used to be with the first version of Do Not Disturb that it would only function when the device was locked. That changed with iOS 7, and not it can be active all of the time. With it on Manual, it is on, but if you have the device "awake" that you can still receive calls/texts, etc. Sort of like you have the phone awake, so it isn't a problem for you to receive things. If you set the settings for Always, this means you can be doing things on the phone and not be disturbed by anything else. Does that make sense?

  • I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

    I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like  the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

    Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
    I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.

  • Why can't I change my apple id / email address associated with my apple id ?

    My apple id is associated with a gmail address.
    I wan't to change it to something else.
    So I went to: appleid.apple.com ---> Change apple id ---> Typed in new email address (everything shows green) ---> Hit Save.-->Edit box disappears as if everything went ok ----> But the box showing my apple id, still shows the gmail address!
    It still shows my gmail address!! Doesn't send any verification email or anything! No matter what I do, it doesn't let me change it from my gmail address!
    It let me change my password though, and also let me change my rescue email address.

    Hi KeanuReeves,
    It sounds like you have already done most of the steps in this article relating to changing the email associated with your Apple ID, but you may want to go through them again -

    If you are still having difficulty changing the email address, you may want to contact Apple’s account security team using the contact information in this article -

  • Why can't I change to size of my test in emails now? CanI go back to previous email version. This one is horrible!!!

    Why can't I change to size of my test in emails now? CanI go back to previous email version. This one is horrible. On my last update I was able to easilt find old emails now they disappear!!!! WTF?
    This version cannot change the text size Do I have to go back to IE?

    Which email site do you use?
    And some general advice:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • HT201210 Why can't I change the location of my device backups?

    Why can't I change the location of my device backups?
    iTunes seems to force me to use my c:\ drive as the destination for all backups. 
    Background: I have set up my c:\ drive only for programs - all data is stored on separate drives - including my iTunes library and all media. So, I can't skinny down the c:\ drive any more without uninstalling programs.
    The issue is that my 10,000 rpm, 280 GB - C:\ drive is fast but small and is now FULL after I got about 1/2 way through a 128 GB backup of my ipad.  (Yes, all movies have been deleted off of the iPad to minimize the size of the backup.)
    I deleted the partial iPad backup, moved all the Mobile Applications to another drive, emptied the recycle bin and tried again with my much smaller iPhone.  You guessed it: the io7 update hung and both of my devices are now paper weights.
    Which leaves me f*cked, anyone know how I can un-f myself?

    iTunes movies are not part of an iDevice backup.
    Videos & photos you take with the camera (in the Camera roll) are part of the backup but those should be sync'd to the computer and removed from the camera roll.

  • Why can't I change qty of Transfer Order

    hi,guys
    I had allow partially delivery goods in order, but when I created Transfer Order from delivery order, I found that I can not change pick qty in transfer order, I used LT03 to create transfer order, so, why can't I change pick qty in transfer order, it is gery!!!

    Hi there,
    If you want to process only a partial quantity, then you have to create delivery only for a partial quantity.
    In a transfer order TO you have to pick the entire delivery quantity. Partial picking is not allowed in TO. Quantity field is blank in TO.
    For eg if you have 100 items in a sales order, but you want to process only 50 now. So create a delivery for 50 items & process TO. If you create delivery for 100 items, do picking in TO for all the 100 items. Just processing TO for 50 items is not permitted. This means that all quantities in delivery has to be picked to PGI.
