Any way to change this default hotkey for DVD app?

My niece is enjoying a Daria marathon from my ripped DVDs which she watches on my TV off my macbook which is in another room. She has a remote keyboard app on her android phone which gives her keyboard and mouse support, and allows her to use FN hotkeys.
What would be the most useful for her, however, is a hotkey for 'Open Recent' menu line in the DVD File menu.
I already know how to create hotkeys based on menu line items, but the 'Open Recent' line item has an arrow which automatically points to a list of recent movies. So the standard procedure for creating a hotkey doesn't work. That darn arrow ruins it.
See attached screenshot, which has the default hotkey circled -- THIS is what I want to change.
Is there a way of changing this hotkey? Any help would be greatly appreciated -- thanks in advance!!

It's not possible. That's because the Open Recent option leads to a multiple selection which you will have to peruse with the cursor to select which one you want. The shortcut only works on menu options that have only one function, i.e. open, close, burn, save as disk image, etc.

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
(OSX 10.10)

Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

HT204135 My printer always defaults to "Scale = 150%" and prints oversized. I always have to set the scale back to "100%". Is there any way to change this default setting?

Hi
My osX Lion loaded iMac always prints with a default "scale" of "150%" and consequently won't print anything on a single page. I always have to go into "Printer Settings" and change it to "100%" to print properly. Is there any way to set this up to default at "100%"?
Thanks!

Hi, just a note that might help. I notice in baltwo's screen shot of the print dialog, that the Preset titled "Plain paper, best" is selected.
anderdan33316, if you have selected a preset, and that preset was created with the "Scale" set to "150%". I suspect your issue is related to this.
for a possible solution,
1. in Safari, open the Print dialog (by cmd-p, or choosing "Print..." from the File menu, either way works).
2. in the dialog, manually set the Scale to 100%
3. in the "Presets:" pull-down menu, select "Save Current Settings as Preset..."
4. enter a label that is meaningful to you, such as "Standard", "Basic", "Default" - it can be modified later
5. print that page from that dialog, and the customized Preset will be one of your choices until you decide to delete it.
hope this helps,

Is there any way to change the default folder for new finder windows...

...Or even set a different folder as the "home folder"?
I am recovering from an incredibly messy archive and install which refused to allow me to save my old user accounts, instead moving them all into "Previous Systems". In my haste to get the machine working again I just dragged and dropped my old home folder into the /users/ directory and changed the "short name" of the new account to match it. IT worked, but now I have an incredibly irritating problem. That is now indeed my home folder, as appears in the sidebar of all finder windows, albeit under my new short name instead of my old one. All my documents in iWeb, Garageband, etc are working now and default to the new folder.
However, Finder has not recognized this, and every time I open a new Finder window or anything like that it defaults to the home folder created by the reinstall, which is now locked to this account (so all the folders have a red no entry sign on them). I would very much like to tell Finder to ignore this now defunct folder and default to my actual home folder instead - is there a way to do this without actually moving or changing any folders? Like a preference setting somewhere? I know there's the "Advanced Options" pane in Leopard but I've been completely unable to find anything like it in Tiger

Is there a way to change the default colors for iPad apps?

I noticed one of my friends iPad 2 had a different color scheme for apps and I would like to change my iPad 2's default ( which is currently grey). To elaborate, the default color for the borders and tabs in Safari are grey on my iPad, my friends are blue. Would like to change from the drab grey color to blue also but I cannot find a setting for this. All applications and Setup apps have this default color scheme on my ipad. Do I have to reset the iPad and start over with setup to achieve this? Hope not, perhaps someone can shed some light on an easy way to do this. Thank You!

You can apply system-wise "negative" color effect under Settings > General > Accessibility, by toggling the White and Black switch - and, in iCab Mobile (and some other, better browsers / PDF readers), its own "night mode" negative color scheme.
Otherwise, no, you can't do anything else except for asking third party app authors to add selectable back/froeground (=text) colors to their apps.

Is there any way to change the default AWR thresholds?

Hi Gurus,
Is there any way to change the default thresholds or attributes of AWR reports for a database?
I have a requirement to change threshold for the SQL statements reported based on sharable memory.
*"SQL ordered by Sharable Memory"*
By defaults it reports statements only above 1Mb (I think it is in Bytes). So I can find only one statement being reported in this category or some times even nil.
*"Only Statements with Sharable Memory greater than 1048576 are displayed"*
It would be great help for me if you guys can help me out as we have issues related to memory often.
Thanks and regards

Is there any way we can set default value for a Date Attribute to current date in Master Data Services

Is there any way we can set default value for a Date Attribute to current date in Master Data Services.
I as well wants to know that is there any posibility to show Calendar control while input data into respective date attributes.
Thanks.

Hi Anagha,
So far i havent found any way to set todays date by default from MMI, but i guess this flow should work as workaroud
1. Add buisness rule which can set a default value when Date = NULL/Blank
2.get the entity table ,use -select EntityTable from mdm.tblEntity where Name = '<enter entity name>'
3.Go to that table and add a after update trigger like
if uda_<entityid>_<attributeid(Date attribute)> = default value
update uda_<entityid>_<attributeid(Date attribute)> =getdate() where id = <LastUpdatedRow>
I will check on this too from my side.
By the way AFAIK i dont think so calendar control integration is possible .

Any way to change this annoying behavior of Web Dynpro?

When debugging a web dynpro app it always launches the web dynpro app in the last browser window you accessed.
This is different from how debugging behaves with a normal J2EE app. In that case NWDS launches the app in a brand new browser window.
This is extremely annoying and inconvenient. For example, I work remotely a lot and do a lot of meetings over webex-type software. So when I'm showing someone what I'm doing the debugger will automatically "take over" my webex window instead of launching in a separate window.
Is there any way to change this behavior to force each debug session to open in a brand new browser window?
Thanks in advance for any help.
David.

Airport turns off after restart. Any way to change this preference?

I recently upgraded to 10.4.4 from 10.3.9. Whenever I restart my computer the airport by default is switched off and i have to manually select the network i want to join. Its a small detail, but previously in 10.3.9 the airport would stay on if it was switched on prior to the restart. Is there any way to change this preference or is this just the way airport is set up in 10.4.4?

Hi at the moment my ipod is on manual sync mode. Is there any way of changing this to auto-sync without losing the music on my ipod or library? Possibly more importantly is there a way I can transfer the ratings from my ipod onto my i-tunes?

This is so I can delete music from my ipod knowing its rated on my i-tunes so I can then see later if I want to re-add it based on its rating
Thanks

This is is more logical. You need to see new message in thread directly, rather than scanning to end of thread to see what is there.

No it is not possible. The newest message is attached to the message it is in reply to.

I like to edit my photos using photoshop, but use iphoto to store, when i save a photo after editing it doesn't show the edit until the image is enlaged, any way to change this?

You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that you must use the Save command in Photoshop, not Save As...

My location bar autocompletes, replacing the already-typed text with the first few letters of the "switch to tab" URL; is there any way to change this?

If I have a mozilla.com window open and I try to type "mouse" to automatically search through my bookmarks and history for something on about mice, for example, the location bar changes the "mo" to "ht", due to the autocomplete replacing what I was typing with the URL of the mozilla.com tab, which starts with http://.
This is really annoying... since if I continue typing the word "mouse" it replaces it with "htuse". Which is useless to me, trying to search for mice.
Any way to fix this?

There is a way that you can do this, but it does mean abandoning CNAME forwarding that you have already set up and just using ordinary masked web forwarding. In this way you can go to the web forwarding section at your domain name registrar and forward your domain name to web.me.com/username/sitename. This will re-direct your site in the way that you want, but because it is masked web forwarding, just your domain name will show as the url for every single page, so you cannot bookmark single pages of a site, just the whole site.
If you use an iWeb blog and you mess around with moving the pages around in your iDisk, then you will loose MobileMe features such as the ability to post comments and also as you have already found, when you publish from within iWeb, it automatically publishes to the same place on your iDisk and not where you have moved your site to.
If I were you I would set up an individual blog with WordPress or Blogger or something similar - if you have an ordinary web host you can upload WordPress there and this then has the advantage of you being able to use your domain name followed by blog or whatever. It is a lot simpler than fiddling around with the iWeb blogging system - I have a blog on my own site and I use WordPress. My site was designed using iWeb and I just create a link from my site to my blog at WordPress - couldn't be simpler really.
