Any way to secure (p/w) a folder on the iPod

Hi,
I have lots of music videos and my 9 yo son will enjoy as well but...
some of them are a bit to "racy" for him.
Is there anyway to password / secure a folder for video's and/or photos?
Thanks tons.
Tom

Does anyone know how to contact Apple to get this added to the iPOD. I'm with the other guy. Some of my videos, photos a,d music are not appropriate for young children. It should be pretty painless to add a secure folder or playlist to each of these three areas.
I'm not asking for multi-level encryption or anything like that just a single password prompt to get to 1 playlist ein each type of media... Although as I type this I realize it woudl be easier to code it to just add a protected attribute to all of the play lists and if set then it prompts.
I don't even mind paying for that feature if I coudl get someone at Apple to listen.
I've just spent 2 hours going around and around the web site trying to find a "Suggestions" area or even Tech support al to no avail

    By itself? No.  You can of course password your iPad as a whole, but not an individual app.

  • Is there any way to delete duplicate files en mas within the new itunes program?

    I've just installed the new itunes program on my laptop. I used the scan for media option to find music. Problem is almost every entry and there's several hundred of them is duplicated and in some cases triplicated within the itunes media library.
    Question ... Is there any way to delete duplicated files en mas withing the itunes library folder?
    Please don't tell me that I'm going to have to do it individually as that may take days.
    Thanks

    Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
    to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

  • Any way to put your own zoom level in the zoom dropdown?

    It turns out that on my 15.6" laptop screen a 65% zoom level is about perfect for fitting my spread in the display so that I can actually read the text in the text frames. (Double-clicking the Zoom tool puts me at a 75% zoom level but with text frames going outside my screen viewing area).
    Pressing Control-Alt-0 puts me at 53.3% but with text slightly too small to read.  Being stubborn, I want 65%, because then I can read all my text and fit the whole spread in the window minus the white blank area between the pink (magenta?) margins and the page trim (black border) which I don't need to see.
    I know about the script method - I've already made my own keyboard shortcut for a 60% zoom level using a custom zoom60.jsx script file with a Control-Shift-1 keyboard shortcut.
    Is there any way to add that 65% zoom level to the Zoom dropdown menu on the Application Bar (top of window)?
    Note: You can't set a default Zoom level with no documents open because the Zoom control (dropdown at top) is greyed out - not accessible.

    I found the ultimate solution to this - buy a new (business model) laptop with a better video card and screen.  My top ("recommended") resolution is now 1600 x 900.  The old one had a top resolution of 1366 x 768.
    Pressing Control-Alt-0 to Fit Spread in Window on the old laptop gives me a 53% zoom level with fuzzy text that borders on unreadable.  Pressing Control-Alt-0 on the new laptop gives me a 65% zoom level with text readable.
    But, what I want is a command called: Fit Spread in Window But With A Smidgeon of White Showing Beyond The Margins.  That turns out to be a 75% zoom level for me (which exists as a preset in the Zoom dropdown on the Application Bar at top of the interface), but I'll still need to do a script and map it to something like Control-Shift-1 because 75% does not result from any of the choices under the View menu. (Using Control-minus(-) and Control-plus(+) will get me to the 75% though). And, I want to get to that 75% without using the mouse.
    Without getting too technical, I think working on a program like InDesign on a consumer model laptop (Acer Aspire 5535) with one of those horrible shiny screens is basically bad for your eyes.  I'm now on a Lenovo Thinkpad W530 with beautiful matte screen (no glare) and text with very sharp edges.
    I guess there are other solutions - like mapping Control-Alt-0 to a 75% zoom using a script to replace my current 65% zoom level.

    If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way.  Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

    If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
    For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore?  iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.

  • Is the any way to totally delete a TV show from the iCloud?

    Is the any way to totally delete a TV show from the iCloud?

    No. TV Shows are kept in the cloud which is a different thing all together from iCloud.   iCloud is your own personal strage space for backups and other App data.  "the cloud" in the case of Tv shows and movies is in Apple's own media servers.  So you can't simply delete a show from there.
    This however means that the show in the cloud is not taking up space in your iCloud storage. As Axeman points out: you can Hide it, but you'll need a computer to do so.

  • After deleting an email address from Contacts is there any way of preventing it from popping up in the To: field of Mail when one starts to type in a contact name.

    After deleting an email address from Contacts is there any way of preventing it from popping up in the To: field of Mail when one starts to type in a contact name?

    if you are not on ios 6, then all you can do is wait.  if you have deleted the address from your contact list, then it will live on for a while in your 'recently used' addresses.  as you use new addresses, those older ones fall down the list, and eventually fall off altogether  (unless you use them again).  Have patience, it will go away.
    Or do the update....

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    If you've emptied the trash, ehtn no. However if you have a backup, like Time Machine, or a recent backup copy of your photo library you could recover the photos from the trash.
    The answer to getting a snapshot form iMovie depends on what version you have.
    I should add it technically may be possible to recover the emptied trash, but if you really want to do that you would need to download a utility software that can attempt to recover deleted files. Do it soon before you start writing more data to that disk. At the moment I don't have a recommendation for such a program. Maybe someone else out there will offer suggestion.
