In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll. Is there a way to adjust this?

In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll. Is there a way to adjust this? This is the way I scrolled for MIDI editing on Logic 9

Hi cris2121, assuming you're using a mouse from apple, go to >System Preferences<
it's here where one can configure a mouse device.
Additionally you can also configure Scrubbing in Logic: "When in scrub mode, you can slowly move the playhead in the Tracks Window and the Audio (and optional MIDI) will be played back. The playback speed depends on how fast you move the Playhead in either direction."
Have a nice day!

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

How do you fix Upside down,sideways picture on Facetime Iphone?

Hello rvalen,
From what you describe I would take a look at the side switch, it may be set to lock the rotation of the screen.
iPad: Understanding the side switch
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4085
Troubleshooting Rotation Lock
If your iPad display does not rotate as expected, verify that Rotation Lock is off:
Check the status bar for the Rotation Lock icon.
Toggle the Side Switch to verify that the device is not locked.
Note: Some apps do not rotate to match the current or locked orientation. Use the Home screen to determine Rotation Lock status.
If Rotation Lock is off and you are still unable to rotate the iPad display, restart your iPad:
Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears, and then slide to turn off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
Regards,
Sterling

When I try to drag and drop to combine events in iPhoto, the drag accelerates out of control when it reaches the top or bottom of the screen. How can I slow it down?

Album overview
A photo album in iPhoto is just like one you would create with printed photos: It’s a collection of photos you select from your library and arrange in the order you want.
You can create photo albums to:
Focus on a particular subject, such as your favorite nature photos
Group pictures that you want to send to a friend, post on a webpage, or burn to a CD or DVD
Gather a decade of anniversary photos
iPhoto has two kinds of photo albums:
Standard photo albums: You create these albums (B, shown below) by selecting particular photos. You can add new photos by dragging them to the album (or using the Add To button), and you can remove photos at any time. All adding and removing is done manually; iPhoto doesn’t update standard albums automatically as you import new photos.
Smart Albums: iPhoto creates these albums for you, based on criteria your specify. iPhoto then updates Smart Albums (A, shown above) for you as your library changes. For example, you could create a Smart Album containing:
Photos of specific people, such as your family members. As you import new photos, iPhoto uses Faces to detect your family members, and automatically adds new photos of them to the Smart Album (after you’ve confirmed the matches in Faces).
All the photos of your daughter taken on school field trips in third grade. Use Faces (to name your daughter) and keywords (to mark certain photos or events as “field trips”) to help specify the photos you want iPhoto to place in that Smart Album.
Only photos taken with a specific camera, or photos matching other Exchangeable Image File (EXIF) information.
You can make as many albums as you like, and you can include the same photo in several albums without making multiple copies of it.
After you create an album, such as “Australia Adventures,” it appears in your Source list below Albums.
In full-screen view, the album appears as a stack of photos below Albums.
To further organize your library, you can group several albums (along with slideshows and projects) into a folder. For example, you could create a folder containing several years of birthday albums or a collection of albums with photos of your camping trips.
To create a folder, see “Create a folder in the Source list and move items into it” in “Customize the Source list”.
Folders appear only in the Source list, not in full-screen view.
Note: A photo album is different from a photo book, which is a collection of photos you create to get professionally printed and bound. See this topic: Photo book overview.

TS4002 Scrolling in iCloud e-mail is just too fast. How can I slow it down?

That small e-mail scrolling bar just moves too far too fast. I want to be able to view my e-mails a few at a time then move on to the next few. As it stands now, it skips way ahead with the slightest touch. There are no arrow heads top and bottom to control the movement. How can I control the scrolling??

Aha! Sussed it!
Click 'Follow Tempo' in the inspector on each track. This activates the Transposition function in the inspector. I've reduced the tempo by 20bpm and set Transposition to -2 on each track.
Hey presto, no longer do me and my mates sound like we had been drinking way too much caffeine two decades ago!

I ran Advance System Care 3 Disk Optimizer program and now my drop down menus are too fast. How do I slow them down

I ran Advanced System Care3 disk optimizer program on my computer and now the drop down menus in Firefox open too fast. Mostly in the Bookmarks menu with nested folders. I went into the registry and changed all the "MenuShowDelay" data values back to 400(which were changed to 200 by the program. All the other windows programs drop down menus went back to the original speeds and are fine. Firefox did not change back to it's original delay speed. Where is the registry entry or configuration file for Firefox? How can I slow the menu down?
Thanks,
Tony

Imported video is way too fast!

i'm using iMovie for the first time and I've been noticing all day that the video files I imported seem a little too fast. I compared them to the original videos, and guess what- the sound is sped up too! all the voices are a little too high-pitched and the video is a little too fast. At least the sound is in synch. But everyone sounds a little Chipmunky.
I have no idea what the frame rate for the original video files are, so I don't know how to fix it.
Someone please help! This is driving me nuts!

Hi honeybadgers
If you click on a clip and bring up the inspector for clip/video/audio, the third section has "Speed" control where you can slow down or speed up the clip. Slow the speed of the clip and the sound should become right too.
Good luck

IPhone 4S battery discharging Way Too FAST

Hello,
to my utter disappointment the battery life or better the life of a charge of the iPhoone 4S battery is deplorably short. I have read all the negative comments and I had been forewarned by the salesperson that the this might happen (he works part time for the phone company that sold me the phone and part time freelances setting up iPhones for corporate use. And in his experience battery life varies greatly depending on if the battery was treated correctly at the factory, what version battery it was etc. And in his opinion the quality of the components Apple builds into it's hardware (harddrives, batteries etc.) are not cutting edge at all – as one might expect taken all the hubbub Apple creates around it's products – but cheap run-of-the-mill stuff.)
So, I feel a lot like Apple does not live up to it's self-created reputation and standards of delivering top-notch hard- and software – for a hefty price, that is.
I have disabled as many of the location-based services as possible, only activating them as needed. I have turned off any and all of the auto-update, selfcheck, -connect etc. features. I do not receive emails, I do not Twitter, Facebook or whatever Social Media stuff to save energy. Still, the battery discharges at a ridiculously fast pace. E.g. a reminder message (displaying on the startup screen as soon as I unlock the iPhone – unused all night): 25% of the energy level is being used up by that. A lot of the fancier apps using location based services or GPS apps are depleting the battery within an hour or even less (hiking, biking, jogging appps). So a lot of the much vaunted versatility of the iPhone falls short for me because I cannot use those apps without wasting too much energy.
As I said before, I am very disappointed!

We've been to the Verizon store on Mary Esther cutoff in Ft Walton Beach three times now. The first time they said to make sure no apps were running and eliminate those we didn't need. We did that. The second time we were met by a person who told us no one had that problem and it was Apple. The manager then came over and was very nice, suggesting we try to backup the phone to our laptop, reset the phone to factory, and restore. We've done that three times. We've also tried renaming our router access point twice.
We go today and tell the female rep that we still have the issue. She says no one at Verizon has ever heard of it and there's nothing they can do. I ask if we could get another phone since it was under warranty (April 10 was our anniversary) when we first brought it in, or replace it with the insurance we pay $8.18 per month for. She said no on the warranty, and sure for $169 deductible. She threw it back on Apple. Clearly not happy customers. If I didn't have a year left I'd be swapping providers today.

IMovie import plays WAY TOO FAST!

I am importing video from a DV (Sony DCR-HC96) straight into iMovie. The transition is smooth and recorded content plays in normal time from DV camera. During transition, the video appears in normal speed on the Mac.
However, when the import is completed -- and I try and PLAY the video on my Mac (MacBook Pro), the speed of the movie is SCREAMING FAST (16x-20x too fast.)
Anybody feeling smart about this?
Would really(!) appreciate your help....

Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
When you say "transition" I think you mean "import" ..the process of passing the video from the camcorder into iMovie. (..A "transition" is generally something which you apply in iMovie; a means of changing from one video clip to another via a 'cross-fade' or a 'dissolve', etc..)
The specifications for this camera, on Sony's page (click on that blue link) and on Amazon's page both mention..
"..Progressive Shutter System
A mechanical shutter system that provides progressive scan performance while utilizing an interlaced scanning system. Digital still images will be sharp and clear with excellent definition."
If you've shot your movie(s) using progressive recording (..using a shutter speed marked 'p', such as '30p' or '24p'..) then iMovie may play it back faster than normal. This is because iMovie normally expects DV to consist of two 'interlaced' fields of video (two sets of lines which each make up half-a-picture) instead of single full frames of video.
(..On the other hand, the "progressive" in the specifications may refer only to still photos; it's not easy to tell from the descriptions whether or not the video may be shot as progressive, too..)
If it's NOT playing fast because you've shot progressive video ('p') instead of interlaced video ('i'), then I can't think of a reason just now why it'd be playing fast ..sorry.

Battery capacity going down way too fast

So problem is that my mbp 13" is about 2 weeks old and battery capacity seems to going down too fast. I only have 2 cycles and I did calibration 4 days ago. When I bought it, it was like 5770 or smth and now it's 5500. Think it's normal or maybe it's just wrong info there?
Battery Information:
Model Information:
Serial Number: W004858Q9D3LA
Manufacturer: SMP
Device name: bq20z451
Pack Lot Code: 0000
PCB Lot Code: 0000
Firmware Version: 0201
Hardware Revision: 000a
Cell Revision: 0165
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 5431
Fully charged: Yes
Charging: No
Full charge capacity (mAh): 5505
Health Information:
Cycle count: 2
Condition: Normal
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): -589
Voltage (mV): 12339

It's fine. Cycle to cycle fluctuations of 300-500 mAh are normal.

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.
