Any way to read out (via USB) what song I was playing? (nano pl

I'm a big fan of radio dramas and audio books. This means listening to hundreds of hours of MP3 in a row - too much to stuff on my measly 256MB Creative zen nano plus, but that's not a problem, occasionally I just stick it in and remove all tracks I have heard and add the newer few, till the thing is full.
However, I read an article (in a magazine) about automated USB tasks on linux, for example automatically empty your photocamera when you plug it in. I'd like to use the same task for the mp3 player, but then I have two options:
. listen up all tracks, then transfer new files
2. transfer tracks when I'm not yet ready
means I'll be out of audio halfway my commute - no fun (radio doesn't well work in the train)
2 means I need to know what I was listening to - something the nano does as it remembers this data on poweroff. I was hoping this data would be written to some kind of .ini-file, but haven't been able to find it, so it might have some bits of non-filesystem flash for this.
Any idea whether the "currently playing track X"-data is stored and whether it is accessible over USB (on linux)
Thanks in advance, Tijmen

P.S. It is not a problem when this means installing a firmware hack or something like that.

Any way to "bookmark" a place in a song (or save play location for resume)?

Hi all,
So .. I'm listening to an audio book .. each track is 50 minutes long. I plug my ipod touch in (USB cable) to charge the battery and maybe sync with more music. When I unplug it and want to resume my audio book, it's lost its location, and I have to manually find where I left off.
Is there any way to get it to remember where it left off? Or set some bookmark before I plug it in?

found this in other forums...looks like im not the only one....
Images of cracked open iPod touch 2g reveal that it has a cleaner signal path from the digital-analog-converter (DAC) chip to the line-out jack, so the problem, such as it is, appears to be with the Cirrus chip Apple used for the touch 2g as opposed to the Wolfson chip found in the 5G/5.5G iPods.
Everyone's ears are different, but Heijligers' test found three problem areas:
- A slight uplift in treble [boosted high frequencies]
- A group delay that depends on frequency [fuzzy 3D image]
- A strong modulation with 22.1k, causing intermodulation distortion [distortion]

Is there any way to find out what brush is applied to a path?

I'm trying to write a script: select some paths, run the script, then each path that has a brush applied to it is changed to use a random brush whose name is sufficiently similar to its current brush. The application is pretty obvious - draw a bunch of lines in, say, 'ragged marker 1', then give it some extra liveliness by having five or six 'ragged marker' brushes that get randomly chosen.
The problem I'm running against is that as far as I can tell, Illustrator only lets Javascript set what brush an object is using with brush.applyTo (artItem), but I can't seem to find any way to find out what path a brush is currently using via JS.
Am I just not looking in the right place of the Javascript reference, or is this really a thing that only has a setter, with no corresponding getter?

Just like you said earlier

The only other way would be through Apple, assuming you bought it at an Apple store or at least registered it. Stop by the store or call their support number.

Does anyone know if there's any way to find out what files in my Library

Does anyone know if there's any way to find out what files in my Library I can delete? I just cleaned off my HD onto a media drive as a back up so all my movies documents and photos are gone but my Library seems to be a huge space hog eating sixty gigs of space and I do have alot of apps but they don't take up a third of that space... Any ideas how I can figure out what is wasting all this space? I had Spring Cleaning once but found it to be rather confusing as to what was essential to the OS and what not...
Thanks,
Matt

Get free OmniDisk Sweeper. I can't imagine how you could have sixty GB in that folder. My entire ~Library isn't even 1GB. Are you sure you're not talking about your entire Home folder?
Can you post a screenshot of the contents of that folder.
Check again. Are you sure you moved all the Movies etc. out? Could have left duplicates of everything behind when you did this.

Any way to find out where most of the memory is being taken up?

I've got a G4 Tower with the latest 10.5 OS. I have an 80 GB drive, with 19 GB remaining.
Single clicking on Mac HD, then "apple i" shows me this.
Is there any way to find out more specifically where most of the memory is being taken up?
Say, what folders are the biggest in size, and where they are? I'd like to delete any unwanted crap if i could...
Thanks.

It's not memory, it's disk space which is a different thing.
you can figure out what's taking all the space using 3rd party tools like [Whatsize|http://whatsize.en.softonic.com/mac], [Omindisksweeper|http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnidisksweeper>, [Disk Inventory X|http://www.derlien.com> or [Grandperspective|http://sourceforge.net/projects/grandperspectiv>. there is also a terminal method described on [this page|http://homepage.mac.com/francines/articles/TigerMisc.html].

Is there any way to pull out computer Mac addresses from GPO?

Hello!
I was wondering if there is any way to pull out the mac address from all the computers in the organisation via the group policy?
It would be rather difficult to pull out mac address one by one from each computer.
Appreciate your assistance and advise on this!
Thank you so much :)

You can use group policy to run a startup or logon script to get the information and write it to some file/database.
You could also get the information remotely using a script.
You could also as your network guy for a list of IPs and MACs they see.
Group policy is intended to make settings, not to get information. However you can
set a startup or logonscript that reads out the information through group policy.
A sample script surely is available in the scriptcenter, but I think help on the specific script is more something or the scripting forums.

Is there any way to find out if my iPhone4 is factory unlocked or jailbroken....

Is there any way to find out if my iPhone4 is factory unlocked or jailbroken....

If they are not sure, then the answer is yes, your iPhone is jailbroken.
What makes you question if your iPhone is jailbroken? What model
is your iPhone (Settings=>General=>About and scroll down to Model)?
What country did you buy your iPhone in? What wireless provider in
what country are you using the iPhone with?

Any way to print-out music catelog on Zen Tou

I have loaded much - but not all - of my music colllection onto my Zen Touch and it would be convenient to print out exactly what I have loaded. Is there any way to print out the contents?
Thanks, Robin

With the predecessor to MediaSource, PlayCentre, you could. The other alternati've is the shareware Notmad Explorer.

Sometimes there are apps that I don't realize I use a lot. Is there any way to find out which apps I use the most, so I can put those on my first home screen?

I'd keep and eye on your multitask bar. This tells me what apps I use and often forget I've been in that day.

Audio out via USB plays briefly , then shuts off

Hi,
I'm running version 10.4.11 on my iMac. I'm sending audio out via usb to an audio device (dac), the audio will play for a while and then just quit. This happens using iTunes or another music player I have on the iMac. This problem is recent, I have been doing this for about a year with no previous problems. Could an OS X update have caused a problem with the usb audio output? Anyone else experiencing this issue? It's become quite aggravating.
Thanks!

Yes.

I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .
