Anyway to do manual over-ride so i can use internal speakers?

Ok,
i know this is about as old as computers have been around, but...my wife and i have a headphone piece broken off in the headphone jack of her white macbook (early 2009). we have tried every adhesive and it hasn't work.
i tried the toothpick in jack to toggle the switch or something and nothing has worked.
we've bought several little usb headphone adapters but it's just such a horrible workaround to always have this huge adapter sticking out with speakers attached.
is there any drastic measure i could take....drill in right next to the jack and push it out?
is there a way to go in to some code and do a manual over-ride or something? i am very good with computers so i'll do almost anything..
my wife mainly uses her computer for media consumption so it's killing her!
thanks!

Is it possible to incorporate a "Manual Over-ride" feature in FIM 2010? i.e. during a target sync, skip the MV entry.

We are stuck on a FIM design.
We have a column in our SQL feed table to FIM MV named "ManualAction"
What we want to happen is that if this column has the value "YES" then FIM will not synchronize the MV entry to attached sources e.g. AD and FIM Portal.
If we try connector filter-ing on column ManualAction equals YES we either disconnect and preserve the MV attributes provided or disconnect and nullify those MV attributes. This is not what we want.
We want somehow to instruct FIM not to synchronize this MV entry if MV.ManualAction == YES
Could this be do via a Rule extension somehow??
The point of the Manual flag is that an Administrator may set one or more attributes in an AD account deliberately and does NOT want them overwritten by FIM even though the usual authoritative source value differs...
What we are thinking is ... is it possible to instruct FIM to 'skip' this MV entry at target resource(s) sync time.
I admit, I am not optimistic but I thought I could ask the FIM experts.

Hello,
you can do this for normal MA in some more and maybe granular ways.
consider to sync the ManualAction also to MV and use this in manual precedence code of attribute flows in combination with lastwriter/contirbutor of the attribute.
With this you have the manual attribute values from ex. AD also in MV and so in Portal.
This is more granular because you can only have a override on the attributes you need while flowing other attributes by normal sync.
Portal is a bit restricted as you can not control the provisioning and attribute flows with code. Whats in your MV will be providioned and exported to Portal 1:1 (if there are flows of cource).
To have advanced flows on Portal MA you can implement a solution called replay MA.

Can I over-ride the default setting in Organizer to allow sorting photos by filename ?

I am converting slides from the 1970's and 80's to digital files and using PSE 8 to Organize them but it is important to me that they stay in the order of the file name I give them and NOT "Date: newest first or last" because it would seem that PSE, in the absence of metafile information, uses the date and time I uploaded the file to the Organizer as the "Date:". ACDSee has a much more sensible arrangement in giving me full control of how my photos are sorted. I am being driven to using ACDSee as the organizer and PSE as the photo editor, a not very convenient arrangement. So my question is, "Can I over-ride the default setting in Organizer to allow sorting photos by filename ?"

The type of file system that you're trying to set up, is actually done better by creating you own file heirarchy in Windows, and then viewing by import batch. For example; you might create a top level folder "My Slide Scans", then perhaps, "My son John". So, the scans of john all go in the same folder, you import the folder in one batch, and you're where you want to be.
That said, PSE will fight you at every turn to do this, since with the scanner hooked up with PSE, PSE is going to want to store your photos in "scanned photos" and import them as you scan them.
I woud suggest this. After the scan and import, use PSE to move the photos to their final destination folder, say " Hawaii 1994", and create a tag of the same name". Then when you're done scanning photos of this event, use the tag to view all the scans at once. Then, delete all the photos from the organizer. (Yeah, sounds radical I know). Take heart! All you've gotta do then is to reimport the whole folder. All the same name photos will be in one import batch. And with all the photos of any given topic in one folder, you'll be able to also use Windows Explorer in any number of modes to view the photos outside PSE.
Keep in mind you can rename batchs of photos by selecting them, or by import batch or even tag, then "Ctrl. > Shift > N" will bring up the name change dialog box.
This technique is quite contensious, but, it makes a whole lot more sense than storing all your photos in the "My Photos" folder on the "C:/" drive where any viral or malware hiccup might cause the necessity of a reformat, which could cause the loss of years of work.
If a name search is a priority, that would be "Ctrl ."Shift" > "K" then type in whatever your heart desires.
Caution: Before attempting a delete/ reimport manuver, Alway, always, write the tag and file info to the photo. "File" >"Write Tag and Properties Info to File".
I always am quite adamantine about suggesting that you do NOT use the same physical HDD that contains Windows to store your photos, that's just asking for trouble. HDDs are quite cheap nowadays, and they're worth every penny in piece of mind. Plus to use a storage ("Volume") drive, you have to create your own file heirarchy anyway, so that leads right back to the beginning of this discussion.

Over-ride concurrent prog noprint option with printer used in CheckPrinting

I would need to give a little bit of back ground on the Check printing process that we follow to explain my issue.
Check printing is done by 2 departments - AP and Treasury. AP selects invoices and runs the payments process while Treasury prints the check and confirms the payment.
Now the issue is when AP submits the payment process, the 'Format Payment Instructions' request gets submitted. Now the users in our AP department have their printer profile set to a default printer and copies set to 1. So for every concurrent request that they submit, the output is printed to this default printer. This has been working fine so far and also works for other requests submitted by the PPR. But the 'Format Payment Instructions' request has the check file in the output which gets printed in the printer from their profile option.
If the printer option is unchecked or default printer is set to noprint in the concurrent program definition of 'Format Payment Instructions' program, the check does not print at all. Even when the treasury submits the check for printing by selecting the printer. It does not work.
Is there anyway we could get the printing of checks by Treasury over ride the concurrent program definition or supress printing of checks by the 'Format Payment Instructions' program while being submitted by AP responsibility.
Any ideas/help on this would be great as we are going live with the upgrade now and would really need to address this issue.
Thanks!

Hi TJ,
you are having definetely other issues, than the ones that might be caused by clrpfm of the tables above ...
But, based on that data, I do not know which ones ;-(
There are dynpro tables like dynpload or d3456t or so not proper ...

Since downloading ios5 on my iphone 4 the capacity guage in itunes shows other as over 21Gb and i can no longer fit any music on it. How do I get rid of the other stuff? other

Since downloading ios5 on my iphone 4 a few days ago, the capacity guage in itunes shows "other" as over 21Gb and i can no longer fit any music on my iphone.
How do I get rid of the other stuff?
capacity available on 32 Gb iphone is 28.49Gb
i previously had 21.97 Gb music, over 6 Gb photos, about 1Gb of apps, and minute amount of audio
now i have no music, 5.4 Gb photos and similar (0.8Gb) for apps and audio. i have deleted heaps of photos and unused apps to try to make space but obviosly this is a much bigger problem. I also created a smaller music folder on itunes to sync to but at present no music is selected for syncing due to the lack of available space.
i have 15Gb icloud account now also which is about half full.
Ive done a little research and heard similar tales but with much smaller other totals than this. Can you help?
i cant update my apps as i get a message saying i do not have enough available space.

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

Over ride default user log in?

Hello,
in the nutshell, I'm currently running 10.8.3 and am wondering if theres a key to press that will "over ride" the default log in user.
My set up is that the mac automatically signs on to the family profile, then i sign out and sign into mine. I chose this set up for my rather technically challenged parents. I would like to be able to press a key or simple combination so that it shows the sign on screen and the user can choose who to sign on. I do feel comfortable using terminal if that does make a difference.
Thanks in advance.

Open the Users & Groups or Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences and turn off automatic login.

Re Time Machine
I have an external hard drive with files I backed up manually over the past 2 years 1TB of memory.
I am finally taking the leap to use Time machine to back everything.
will I have to reformat that drive, thus wiping my previous back ups?
can I split it the drive in two partitions?
Also
as I have two separate Macbook Pro's- one older than the other.
OSX 10.68
the other is
OSX 10.75
can I back them up separately?
or even synch and merge files and folders etc? between the two?

You CAN use a drive with files already on it to store Time Machine backups. But long term, that is not recommended. You do not need to reformat or re-partition the drive to do this. Once Time Machine Backups are established, you could remove the old files.
But do not delete Time Machines files with the Finder -- that can cause it to lose its place and lose everything.
With the cost of backup drives under US$100, it might be a better idea in the long run to get another drive. Best results from Time Machine is a drive about 3 times larger than the drive(s) you are backing up.

I tried to move my photos to MY PASSPORT and they populated all over my screen; I can't get rid of them. HELP!

I tried to move my photos to MY PASSPORT and they populated all over my screen - I can't get rid of them. HELP!

This problem sounds like a missed target and too many files: user meant to drag and drop files to the WD My Passport icon on the Desktop but dropped files on the Desktop instead. If so, there could be thousands of files on the Desktop; Finder is trying to create icons for every dropped file--and one day Finder might finish--but the Mac is essentially stuck till those files leave the Desktop.
Various solutions exist, with increasing levels of difficulty:
1. In Finder, hit Cmd-N to open a "list" display window of the Desktop, then move files from this window to a new folder--or, as others advise, Cmd-drag files to the WD My Passport (easy, but given the bogged-down system, probably not an option).
2. From the Finder menu, Go > Desktop to get to a "list" display rather than an "icon" display window, followed by drag/drop clean-up to a new folder or Cmd-drag files to the WD (again, easy, but also perhaps not possible).
3. Start in Safe Mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564) and then move the excess Desktop files to a new folder or Cmd-drag files to the WD. (Safe Mode loads only essential graphics routines, so the Finder may be more snappy even with an overloaded Desktop).
4. Boot from the installation DVD and then navigate to the overloaded Desktop to move the photo files to a new folder or Cmd-drag to the WD.
5. Use a second Mac to connect in Target Disk Mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/ph3838) to clean up the messy Desktop.
6. Use Terminal and unix commands to clean the Desktop. Try the easy ways first.

How do I over-ride the DETERMING GAPLESS PLAYBACK process

I am so frustrated! Everytime I put music on my 30G iPod, iTunes begins this lengthy process of processing EVERY SONG in my library and determining it's gapless playback. Is there a way that I can over-ride this painstaking process? I have gone to preferences and dealt with the crossfade options, but nothing will stop it. It makes my computer run terribly slow and when I opt to quit iTunes it tells me "your iPod is updating, if you quit now the updates will not be saved" and the process will start all over.
Desperate.

If you just let it finish, it won't do it again. Depending on the size of your library, it may take a few hours, or longer.

How can I over ride the combination code to access the volume limit?

I want to increase my volume limit but there is a combination lock that shows up and I dont know what the code is! Is there some way I can over ride this and increase my volume limit? It's hard to hear any music.

The only way to bypass the volume limit passcode is to restore the device to factory settings in iTunes.

How can I over-ride the regional code?

I buy DVD from different countries.
In my Microsoft I could over-ride the regional code.
Question: What can I do with my Probook to play DVDs from variious regional codes?
Is there a software avaliable or what else can I do?

"Is there a software avaliable or what else can I do?"
There is no method by which an MBP can have the regional code reset. There are external players that do not utilize the regional coding, and allow all optical media to be used. Google is your friend.
