2 completely unrelated questions

Hi All
I've been googling this for a few days now and have not found anything helpful.
First question (not terribly relevant to this forum and I've already found a semi-workable sollution):
I'm developing a mobile site and testing on a touch becuase its quick and easy to access. I put in an external style sheet and everything was fine. On one of the pages I need a couple form elements (input, hidden input, textarea, button). As soon as I put those in they break the external style sheet. If I copy the exact same style sheet to an inline style it works fine. Has anyone seen this before? Is this a bug of mobile safari or bad code? As a side note the external style sheet and form work fine in FF3 and IE6.
Second questions (probably more relevant to this forum):
In itunes I've set up a playlist that takes all podcasts that have a play count of <0 and plays them in random order. On the touch it looks like its only possible to play podcasts by Title. Is there anyway on the touch to play all podcasts in random order (the same as you can shuffle all music)?
Thanks much!

the first question is more of a web design question, so as you say, not that relevant to this forum, i suspect you will get little help on that here (always worth asking though - you might hit on an ultra geek )
you always used to be able to shuffle podcasts directly like you can do with music, but at some point apple decided that it was more useful to have the 'mail' 'back 30' and 'speed' options than the usual shuffle options. no idea why this is, although i can see the use in the second two, a shuffle button would certainly be much more use than a mail button.
however i'm slightly confused here because you say you've set up a playlist with your podcasts in it. the way to get around this lack of shuffle option is to have a playlist (either a temporary on-the-go playlist OR a permanent one like you describe). you can then shuffle the playlist as you would normally.

  • I have a Google redirect virus which redirects every hit I click on in every search engine, in every browser, to a completely unrelated website. No anti-virus software I've tried can get rid of it. Help.

    ''Locked due to age. If you still have a problem, please [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new start a new thread]''
    Basically the Google redirect virus is caused by a trojan with rootkit capability, and so whenever I click on a link on Google, it redirects me to a completely unrelated site. I think I got it on there because of downloading pirated software (patches, cracks, keygens) to avoid paying: so stealing software didn't pay off :(
    I know you guys aren't specialised in internet security, but can you help?

    There seems to be more than one, possibly several malware objects that can cause Google search redirects in both Firefox and Explorer... some result in multiple infected files and are self- regenerating. I tried rootkit, gooredfix, tdskiller and every other tool I could download... several times I was certain it was gone but it always came back! If you want to kill this thing for good, combofix is the only thing that removes ALL of the infected elements. Combofix takes a long time to run (circa 30 min?) and requires some user input and also messes with your system settings a little but it is VERY thorough and it does work and best of all, it's free.

  • My browser has been infected with a virus that is not showing up in a scan. When I do a Google search and click on the desired site, I am diverted to some completely unrelated commercial site. Can this be fixed? in English

    In Firefox I did a search for Alaksen ( wildlife refuge). The search results were appropriate. Clicking on any site in the Google search diverted me to various commercial websites that were completely unrelated to Alaksen.

    Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    * SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com/
    * Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

  • Two unrelated questions, syncing and mail

    I have two unrelated questions.
    1. I can't seem to for the life of me copy playlists between devices. Both my IPod Nano and my IPhone 4s are connected to my computer right now. Using autofill, I was able to put all the music in my ITunes library on my phone, but when I sellect the playlists, copy and paste them, they won't move and remain only on the IPod and the computer. Can someone please tell me how to get them onto my phone? There are currently no playlists on the phone.
    2. My other question is about mail, whenever I send a mail, the phone says that it was rejected by the server and a copy has been placed in my outbox. What's going on here?

    1) Is the "Manually Manage Music and Videos" box checked under the Summary tab in iTunes on each of your devices?
    2) Try deleting the account under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and then re-add it.

  • Complete newbie question - Can BI consume web services?

    Post Author: Steve Lamont
    CA Forum: Data Integration
    I am working on a new client site working on integration between a whole slew of systems including CRM, billing, BI etc.  The client is architecting a SOA oriented approach to all integration where it make sense.  As part of the effort, a new BI database is being built and loaded via some ETL tool.  The primary interface to access this new BI data will be business objects (BO).  Now, in the current environments, there are multiple, disparate BI systems containing various data.  The BO knowledge person (and he is not a business object employee) on this site is claiming that to access these other BI databases, he wants to do it by sending out requests via service calls.  I fully understand that BO itself can be set up to be a service provider and provide services for other consumers to take advantage of, but how does BO itself consume services provided by other applications?
    Obviously I don't fully understand BO, but my initial inclination is that this approach is wrong.  If data is required from these other BI source, wouldn't they be configured as data sources within business objects?  This BO guy claims that calling web services is more efficient that direct peer-to-peer calls via the database drivers.
    Can any share some comments on this situation?

    You posted your question to the wrong forum, please try to post it to one of the subforums in "Enterprise Reporting, Query & Analysis".
    This forum is about Data Integrator, Business Objects ETL tool.
    I'll try to answer your question anyway with my reporting background From what I know, YES we can consume web services in reports (Crystal reports), but for larger volumes of data a direct access to the database would be faster. A webservice approach might make sense if the webservice implements some business logic (semantic layer) which would be easier then to go directly to the tables.
    And just for the record : also Data Integrator can consumer web services...

  • Complete newbie questions

    Hi,
    I am completely a beginner and want to understand some terms about J2EE.
    1. In Tomcat 4, it uses Catalina as servlet container. But, what is ANT? When and how should be used?
    2. I am using tomcat 4, do I still need to install the implementations of the J2EE platform in http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download-beta2.html ? It seems it is an application server only like weblogic or jboss.
    Thanks for advice

    Yes, JBuilder can call Ant directly, so you don't have to use command line. You just need to open build-ant.xml and you'll see little ant on this tab.. Press run, and that's it!
    If you want to use something other than Tomcat on JBuilder, go to Tools->Configure Servers. There you'll find list of servers that JBuilder supports and run. If your app server have another JDK, this JDK will be noticed in JBuilder as another installation of JDK. Everytime you select this server as server that runs project, JBuilder selects another JDK.
    I didn't develop anything with this app server you have downloaded, but all other app servers are not free (BES,WebSphere,WebLogic). If you have trouble connecting this app server to JBuilder, try to ask on borland newsgroups...

    I press X on the top left, but this doesnt close the application, it just seems to be minimised??
    I've discovered that if I hit 'Apple Key + Q' that closes properly - is there no way to close via the mouse?

  • Cropping and Blue Screening - 2 unrelated questions.

    1) When I straighten a still in Canvas by using the wire frame, to make a house level, say, the cropping lines, naturally, move with it. So a cropping line at an angle will give me a slanting top and bottom line. So how can I crop it so that the picture has a square aspect? Is the only recourse to go back to the original site for the picture, GIMP or iPhoto, perhaps, crop it there and re-import the photo into FCE? Or is there a quicker way?
    2) I have added a number of videos above my main video to show, for example, falling snow, and eliminated their black background by Modify - Composite Mode - Screen. Very easy and by no means unusual. So, my question, is, why all the fuss about green and blue screening? Setting it up seems troublesome. A black background for the purpose is much easier to make, and, for that matter, easier to find. I looked down my back yard this morning and this side of the creek are jet black bushes which would seem ideal for such a purpose. This seems such a no-brainer that I think I must be missing something. But it is curious.

    1) I shall immediately turn to the garbage matte section in your book - I'm sure I remember seeing one - and work it out from there. And here I always thought a garbage matte was that rug I bought in Cairo.
    2) A black screen. That does give me a thought. When I return to my upcoming masterpiece, " "Orrible Murder at the Castle Doom" I could put one of my granddaughters in a black suit, photograph her against a black background and Voila! a floating head. I wonder if they give out Oscars for original ideas?
    Once more. Thank you.

  • Two possibly unrelated questions - Hard Drive and something else.

    Sorry I only have symptoms not specifics at this point. I have an intel core duo mac mini, running 10.5.6, with 4 gigs of ram. I have a couple of issues that may be unrelated: A possible Hard drive issue and another strange issue. I don't know if there are related but since I may have to go through the hassle of cracking open my mini I thought I would ask.
    First issue when I stream video over the internet sometimes and only sometimes my machine will suddenly restart, no shutdown, no prompts, just instantaneously restart, other times it will stream hours of video without issue. This issue has plagued me since 10.4 and all subsequent upgrades.
    Second issue is what I believe is a hard drive failure, but I'm not sure and I don't want to buy/replace it if that's not the issue. I updated to 10.5.6 a few months ago and was running with no issues although lately it has been getting slower. Last week my parents came over to watch "24" online so after working on my computer all morning I restarted my machine thinking it would stream better, upon restart it would get to the large apple with the spinning graphic and hang up, then about after a minute in it would simply power off. Confused I restarted with the same results. I tried this probably 10 times with the same result. Checked all the cables, etc. nothing. so next I booted into the Leopard Installer and ran disk utility. At first the hard drive didn't show up in the left column so I quit disk utility and launched startup disk, again no hard drive, then I re-launched disk utility - now it showed up. I ran repair disk since repair permissions was greyyed out. It came back with errors saying disk couldn't be repaired. Sorry the only error message I recall is a damaged catalog B-tree. So I restarted and for the first time in 10 hours my machine actually restarted and everything came back. From here I backed up everything important. Since then it has restarted 3 times will no issues, other than running a little slower than usual. So last night I ran Disk Warrior and receive the error message. " Could not rebuild due to a disk malfunction. A disk malfunction is a failure of or damage to any mechanical component of the disk device or any component connected to it. Since I had disk warrior in there I checked the hardware test option where it checks the S.M.A.R.T. something or another, sorry for the choice of words I've never done that, and it returned saying the drive was fine. So here I am a bit confused if it's the hard drive or another issue any ideas.

    Hi daredman01-
    Could the unit simply be overheating? Have you vacuumed out the air vent that rns along the bottom edge of the mini?
    Good job getting things backed up. How full is the hard drive?
    Luck-

  • Once an iDVD is complete & burned question

    If I have completed and burned a new iDVD can I take that iDVD and insert into another MAC and edit it?
    Example: I created an iDVD for a friend and mailed to her. Now she wants to change the music on the iDVD I made. Is this possbile? Can she upload the idvd onto her MAC and edit it?

    Q: If I have completed and burned a new iDVD can I take that iDVD and insert into another MAC and edit it?
    A: No. A dvd is considered a finished product in that it is highly compressed data (normally to mpeg 2 format) and not normally intended for editing again.
    What you can do is archive the iDvd project file to an external HD or volume (or another mac) and then use another mac for further editing. However this approach uses large amounts of disc space.
    Another option might be to send the dvd to your friend and then use a third party app to convert to QT for use within the i-apps.

    Directly from iDvd's Help Menu:
    Archiving an iDVD project to back it up or transfer it to another computer
    You can archive your iDVD project to back it up or transfer it to another computer. This is useful in an environment with several computers, such as a computer lab, where only certain computers contain a SuperDrive or have an external DVD burner for burning DVDs.
    When you archive your project, iDVD keeps all the assets (movies, photos, audio files, themes, and the files in the DVD-ROM section of the project) together and linked so that the project can be moved and reopened without errors.
    Archiving a project can take some time because all the data in the project must be copied and relinked. You can cancel the archiving process at any time.
    NOTE: If your project uses a special font, make sure that font is installed on the computer where you transfer your project. Otherwise, you won’t see the font in your project.
    To archive your iDVD project:
    Check the file permissions for the media assets (photos, movies, and so on) in the project and set them to Read & Write if you want others to be able to open or copy the assets in the archived project.
    Choose File > Archive Project, and then click Save.
    Type a name for your archived project.
    Locate the folder where you want to save the project.
    The size of the current project is displayed in the Archive Project dialog.
    Click “Include themes” if you want to archive the theme or themes used in your project.
    Select this option if you are using customized themes that might not exist on another computer.
    Click “Include encoded files” so that the project files won’t need to be reencoded after being moved to a different location.
    If you want to save time and hard disk space, however, leave this option unchecked.
    Click Save.
    A progress bar shows that your project is being archived. The larger the project, the longer it takes to archive.
    Your project is saved with the word “Archived” in the file name.
    You can open the archive and continue to edit the project if necessary.
    NOTE: If you open a project archive and add media files to it, those files are not automatically added to the archive. So if you want to include those files in the archive, you must archive the project again.
    Hope the above helps but if not just come on back.

  • Apologies for complete 'idiot' question..

    Been sort of thrown in at the deep end with this app really, but hey ho..
    I have a nice crisp company vector logo that I wish to import into FCP.
    Saved it as a .ai file and it comes in with the white page background & logo in the middle - no good!
    Plonked it into a photoshop file, saved it as a .psd, imported into FCP. This time I get the psd layers showing in the timeline BUT with a nice black box round the vector info - again not good.
    Am I presuming too much here and hoping for a simple answer?
    I completed a 3 day Apple course yesterday and we never got onto this subject, and subsequent google searches haven't really unearthed much.
    Cheers in advance,
    Andy

    Yeah, this is one of those things - as you tell by the range of suggestions - where there is no simple, single workflow.
    If you need to maintain the scalable nature of the vector artwork, drop your .ai file into Motion and work on it there. Once you've corrected things in Reveal Source Media - press Shift-F after you've dropped your file in and uncheck the Fixed Resolution box in the Media tab of the Inspector - you will be able to grow/shrink the file as necessary without the nasty pixelation.
    But since you're new to Final Cut Studio and are probably just looking to keep things as simple as possible for a while, next time try a File > Save for Web and Devices out of Illustrator using the PNG-24 preset (transparency should be toggled on by default). It'll be all good when you import the .png file into FCP.

  • A few unrelated questions - Blackberry Curve 8310

    Just got this phone Saturday and spent the day with the book and the cd.  i've got the basics, but the questions i still have are making me feel old and blonde.  So if you can please help?
    silliest and probably most obvious first...
    email - do you have to have paid support of email to register an email address on your curve?  Husband can put his in but i can't...the option doesnt even appear on my email set up.  Just Enterprise or later.
    ringtones - i had them on my media card.  Put that into the new phone and assigned them all, no problem.  when i put in the desktop cd and tried to synch....my ringtones still WORK on my phone, meaning if they call i hear them.  i can see them on the desktop list, but when i go to media and ringtones it says NO RINGTONES...what happened?
    also, while i was trying to show the husband how to do something on his phone, i inadvertently sent myself a VM, that was a recording of what i was telling him...how the heck did i do that. 
    sorry to be a bother, but i just can't seem to work out those bugs...
    sherry

    Congrats on the new Blackberry:
    1: Email - Yes, you need to have a paid Blackberry service to use email.
    2: Ringtones - it copied them to your blackberry itself
    3: VM - I'm guessing you mean Voice Message and not Voice Mail. You clicked Voice Notes, recorded the message and then sent it to your husband. Its usually associated with a quick key and if not, it would be in your menu system.
