Adjust the required time to count as a play

I'm using iTunes 9 on windows vista and was wondering if there was a way to adjust the required time it takes for you to play a song for it to count as a play in itunes? It is my understanding that you have to make it to the last five seconds of the song for it to count. Could i adjust that to make it to where its like 30 seconds into the song and that counts as a play?

There's no way to hack a file, or edit a preference file? Anything besides dragging it to the end

  • Can't adjust the default time scale when creating a new appointment in Outlook 2010

    Good Afternoon, I have found a question on these community boards that propose an issue that I am currently experiencing. The answer; however, was not the solution for me. I used the same name as the original post and will add the original text as it is
    exactly what I am experiencing.
    "When creating a new appointment in the month view Outlook 2010, the default time scale or duration is 2 days.  I tried resetting the view, adjusting the time scale, and creating a new profile.  It only seems to happen when creating the appointment
    in the Month view.  ???  Day and week view work fine and appointment can be created w the standard 30 minute time scale.  But the time scale in the month view although says 30 mins, it creates appointments in 2 day durations."
    This is exactly what happens to the user I am assisting. When in "month view" double clicking the day will bring up a new appointment with the times within the same day. If you click the "new appointment" button in the ribbon it
    sets the end time to the following day. This only happens in the month view every other view works as it normally should. I have tried it several times being sure multiple days are not selected. It still gives me an end time for the following day. I have reset
    the view, changed the time scale but nothing seems to bring it back to the default same day appointment. Any ideas?
    Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

    It is a default in Outlook 2010 in month view.  The "time scale" selection is greyed out.  Very frustrating.  Everytime I select "New Appointment," a duration of 1 day is automatically selected; midnight to midnight.  I end up doing
    most appointments twice because I forget to change to end date back to the day of the appointment.  "New meeting Request" works fine.  So does "New All Day Event" when you deselect "All Day Event."  I can't see how this default behavior
    provides optimal results under any circumstances.  Very frustrating.

  • I was setting up my IPod Nano 7 for the first time and I can't play the songs I bought. What did I do wrong?

    I was setting up my IPod Nano7 for the first time and purchased 3 songs.  When I went to play it on my IPod the screen said "No Music".  What did I do wrong?

    We are going through same thing and looks like alot of other people also. Seems to me Apple would have invalid email instead of us loosing the gift card all together. Very irratating. Good Luck.

  • How do I get Calendar on Mac to stop auto correcting the end time?

    I input my work schedule into Calendar manually every week and I copy and paste one event to save some time. One annoyance I run into is when I'm altering the time from say, 10am-6pm, to 4pm-10pm. As soon as I switch the start time from am to pm, it automatically adjusts the end time to 10am on the following day. So then I have to go back and manually change it from an event spanning 2 days to an event that should only span 1 day.

    This works for me:
    To turn off Phone Calling on your iPad or iPod Touch, go to FaceTime under Settings and switch off iPhone Cellular Calls. On your Mac, open the FaceTime app, then go to Preferences under FaceTime, and tap Settings. From there, switch off the iPhone Cellular Calls option.
    Found it here:http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/131449-why-s-my-mac-taking-my-iphone-calls-how-t o-turn-off-apple-continuity
    I realise it doesn't quite solve the issue of FaceTime "knowing" whether the call has already been answered on another device, which I agree is a flaw. But in my case, I don't want to receive regular phone calls on my Mac at any time. Only the very rare FaceTime call. So turning off cellular calls is a solution of sorts.

  • Imovie 10.0.4 crashes after adjusting 2nd photo time length

    After I try to adjust the photo time length imovie 10.0.4 gets the spinning beach ball and imovie says it is not responding, so I have to force quit and reopen.  I finished editing the rest of the video portions of the project with no problems until I attempted to shorten the time length of my photo.  The first photo would adjust fine but after adjusting the second photo it gives the spinning beach ball.  It does this every time after the second photo.  Macbook 10.9.4

    Earlier this week Apple released an update to iMovie that has fixed this for a lot of people. Are you running version 9.0.7? You can update to it by running Software Update or checking the Updates tab in the Mac App Store. If it's still crashing after the update, this seems to be doing the trick for a bunch of people: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4319

  • In the timed access area, I cannot seem to be able to change the access times, it give me an error. It keeps saying invalid value.  - Very frustrating.

    Each time I try change the access between times, I get an error.  Invalid value. The value for "Timed Access Control" is invalid.  The system will only accept the pre-stored times and will not allow me to over write a 9:00 AM  with lets say a 10:00 AM.  Is there some knack to getting this function to work?  I've tried to make the required changes several times and over several days all without success.

    Gave up on the access via my Mac Mini, downloaded the App to my IPAD and entered the required times perfectly. Now the system works perfectly.

  • Change the capture time.

    I own a Sony camera with GPS and I use the characteristic to adjust the camera time in relation with the time zone.  It is very useful because I can complement the pictures taken with my Nikon DSLR when they have been imported with Lightroom as I organize and rename them with the capture time.
    The problem is that Sri Lanka, where I shoot my last pictures has, as India, a half time zone and the Sony do not take into account this special event and I didn’t realize it, so my Sony  thought that I was in Dacca and not in Colombo: 30 minutes less.
    As result of this situation my pictures have the wrong time and when I import them are wrong placed.
    I have found the way to change the capture time with Lightroom but the modification is performed in the catalogue only and not in the EXFIF data as the Sony pictures are JPEG.
    Please, is there any way to solve my problem with Lightroom?
    Thanking in advance

    John, thanks again.
    I had forgotten the special behaviour of the Lightroom with the grid view and I had selected the loupe view. In any case I executed the change with the second option that you suggested. By the way, I think that it is a dangerous setting because you can mistake a tag when imported and you can solve the mistake easily in Lightroom  (with grid view, of course) but with a lot of work in the windows explorer.
    Thank you very much for your help.

  • Can anyone help me determine why iCloud changes the calendar time of appointments.

    Here's my situation: i use an iphone registered/acquired in spain. the phone is unlocked and now carries a t-mobile card, as i am currently in nyc, but all my calendar appointments have a 6 hour time difference from those entered on my mac and vice versa. there are several threads about this issue, all of which point to the various hardware and software settings (time zone support on or off on the iphone as well as on the app on mac and phone). another user mentioned the setting provided for in the icloud calendar function itself, where the proper time zone can be modified. all to no avail, i stil get my 6 hour time difference.
    anyone please?
    thanksamillion!

    Thank you fromsouth, for your interest, but it didn't help.
    I have 3 scenarios: Entering an appointment on the mac's calendar, on the phone's, and on iCloud's calendar. If I enter an appointment on the mac, it shows up correctly on iCloud, but is off by 6 hours on my phone's app. If I enter it on the phone's app, it will be off on iCloud and therefore off too on the mac. I've deleted the app (I use WeekCal, but see the same discrepancies on the iCal app) and reset it all new, but the problem prevails. Unlike my earlier assumption that the problem lies with iCloud, I now believe it is in the phone, although wouldn't know where. I see that the iCal app on OS has the ability to adjust for the time zone. When entering the event on the phone, it gets syncronized on the Mac at the phone's time zone, which for some reason appears to be set at my original Spanish setting (GMT+1), even after I reset the time zone to NY. I can manually adjust the calendar time zone setting on my Mac to EST to correct the time for the appointment.
    Quite frustrating!

  • Can I run two midi controllers (keyboard  and pad) at the same time?

    ie.....can I play keyboard and use a pad for an effect of some sort - creating two instraments at the same time. I want to play say, piano on one instrament w/ a keyboard and at the same time play a synth effect on a trigger pad with another instrament (es 2)????????

    check: file/song settings/recording/auto demix by channel if multi-track recording
    this will allow you to record them both.

  • Nano 6G does not wake up from the sleep timer in the same audiobook/track

    My Nano 5G sleep timer will shutdown at the specified time and when I wake it, the Nano will be at the same track and position of my audiobook.
    However, my Nano 6G will wake up in a random song as if it shuffled after the shutdown. I test by setting the sleep timer to one minute and play a book.
    Is there a setting I have missed? I use ITunes to set the option to remember the position. This happens to my Audible.com books and my MP3 books.
    I have Shake to Shuffle OFF. I have done a full firmware restore.

    Perform a hard reset on the Notebook. To perform a hard reset, follow the steps below.
    Unplug the AC adapter from the notebook PC.
    Remove the battery from the notebook battery compartment.
    Disconnect any external devices or peripherals connected to the notebook. Press and hold down the power button for about 15 seconds
    After this, update the firmware of your Notebook by downloading it from here Let us know if issue persists even after this done.

  • Can two different local ips use the same port at the same time?

    Can two PS3s use the same ports at the same time. So let's say you have two PS3s and they need to open the exact same set of ports at the same time to be able to play the same game online. Is that possible on a regular consumer router such as the wrt310n? If so, then how would someone go about that. I am just asking out of curiosity.
    I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

    Use port range Triggering instead of Port forwarding. When you use port triggering then those ports will be opened for the entire local network.
