Auto-Run Videos in Numbers?
I am a recent convert to Numbers. I find it 'excels' over the competition.
Now that my creative juices are flowing, I have a question. I have created a game for the kids using various formulas and the pop-up menus and added a video to play if they reach a certain point score. Is there a way to make the video play automatically when they reach 90% or more?
I have it 'programmed' to the point that it shows the score, but for now I'll have to tell the kids to click on the video only if they score well. It would be great if I could put in a formula to auto-play.
Perhaps I am asking too much.
Thanks in advance.
Open Numbers' preferences by selecting the menu item "Numbers > Preferences…":
Then uncheck the box "Show auto completion list in table columns" box:

How can you auto-accept Video Calls in Messages.app
In Ichat there used to be a way to select a user and under "alerts" (which is no longer a perference option in messages) choose to auto-accept video calls from that person.
Is there a way to set up Messages to auto acccept video calls? It was great for when I wanted to check in on my puppy.
Thanks!HI,
In the normal setting of Messages this is no longer possible.
I would use here to ask for the feature back

The page was never very good at keeping up to date with iChat version numbers so type your specs into the Free Text area.
It might be possible to copy the AppleScript that did this and make a copy and remove the non Video bits and use it from the Dock.

How to set Lion built-in FTP Server auto run off
Hello all.
I set FTP Server by using Rumpus Server application.
But Lion's built-in FTP Server is running on the front.
So if I try to connect my FTP Server out of my LAN, I can only connect to the built-in FTP Server despite I wanted to connect Rumpus FTP Server.
It can be solved by unload the built-in FTP Server(using sudo -s launchctl unload...) but every after rebooting I should set it because it is set to run automatically in every booting.
How can I set the auto run off?well, the ftp server (=ftpd) takes account info from the user list for your mac. so, go to the system settings on your mac, then to users, and then just add another user with a password of your choice (tap on the little plus-sign to add a user!). this will then be a valid user for your ftp server after you restart your ftp server.
the other thing you want to do, about the home directory, is called chroot. you can set the home directory of a specific ftp-user to be another directory then the standard. for this, there are configuration directives in the configuration file in /private/etc/ftpd.conf which you have to edit by hand. so make sure what you do there.
you should read this before editing the file, this will give you a better understanding of what to put there: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/darwin/reference/manpages/ man8/tnftpd.8.html -
I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.
Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

Imovie 09 How do I stop Imovie from auto importing video from iphoto
Imovie 09 How do I stop Imovie from auto importing video from iphoto.
Hi I've done a lot of searches on how to do this but no answers found.
Imovie is beginning to become really slow because of the large number of video's. It takes 3 minutes to startup. Editing is sometimes slow lot's of spinning beach balls e.t.c.
I would like to only import the video I want to edit and hopefully get a quicker Imovie in the process.
My Iphoto library is about 95 Gbyte in size.
My mac has 4 gb ram and I use the internal disk.
Any other ways to work with Imovie/Iphoto are also welcome.
regardsI won't get iMovie 9 till Tuesday, but based on what you said I may need to take some precautions. One reason I didn't like iMovie 8 is because it automatically imported everything in iPhoto library. What I'm going to do is create a new iPhoto library before importing the photos/videos from the camera. Or if you already have it in your main iPhoto library copy only the photos you'll use in your iMovie 9 project to the new library. Then start iPhoto while pressing the option key which will allow you to select the new iPhoto library you have created. Then I suppose that when you start iMovie 9 it will automatically import only the photos/videos from the new library.

Job Schedule - Doesn't auto run at a given time.
Hi
I hope you can help. I have set up the job below:
DECLARE
X NUMBER;

,interval => 'TRUNC(SYSDATE+1)'
,no_parse => TRUE
SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Job Number is: ' || to_char(x));
END;
commit;
It compiles and is viewable from dba_jobs, but for some reason doesn't seem to auto run at the times given.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.i tried to view that with:

SSRS 2008 R2 Report parameters have default values and report not to auto run
Hi, I am using SSRS 2008 R2 one of my requirements for a Report is all the parameters have default value and I do not want this report to auto run when users open this report. I can create a dummy hidden parameter to break the auto run for this
report. But I am looking for solutions other than that.
Thanks in advance..........
IoneHi lone,
According to your description, you have a report with parameters. Now you want you report not to run automatically with your parameters default values. Right?
In Reporting Service, if you have parameters with default values in your report, your report will always auto run with these default values. We can say these default values are used for report running initially. So for your requirement, if you really need
to see your default value before the report running, the best workaround is set one more parameter to break the auto run like you have done. If you just want your report not to auto run, your can achieve it by removing those default values.
Reference:
Report Parameters (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Blue screen when running videos
Hi
I have a pavilion dv6 laptop product number XE056EA#ABV
I get blue screen and computer crashes when i run videos. Recently I received help from HP community and downloaded the latest graphics adpater dirver. The problem was solved when using google chrome. however when i tried internet explorer the problem still persists. I made sure I have the latest version of explorer. This happens when i use youtube or andy video streaming in any web page.
I appreciate your helpHI @maha_diwan ,
Thank you for your inquiry, I will try my best to help you!
I grasp that when playing videos your computer crashes unless you are using Google Chrome. You have updated the graphics drivers.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to aid with HP updates?
There is a bios update for your notebook. If you have not done that update, I suggest contacting HP support for assistance as it does have a potential to cause damage. Updating the BIOS

Flash Player upgrade required
You must download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content.
Even I hd already installed latest version of Adobe Flash PlayerAdobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.6.1.629 is not Flash.
There are two different versions of Flash, the '''''ActiveX''''' version for IE and the '''Plugin''' version used by most other browsers.
1.Download the Flash Plugin version setup file from here: <br />
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
Save it to your Desktop.<br />
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

Missing Plug-in when trying to run video content
I am new Mac user and one of my favorite websites returns an error message when I try to run video content..the message is....."Media Center” has content of MIME type “application/x-mplayer2”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed." Any advice where and how to get the plug-in for Safari...?
Hi again,
I think your only other hope is to try installing the old, PowerPC only, Windows Media Player (WMP) from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/mac/mp9/default.aspx
Microsoft's WMP supports some of the DRM files that Flip4Mac can't handle (but sadly it can't handle the most recent types of files).
For Safari to use the plug-in for WMP it must be run in Rosetta mode (where the system emulates a PowerPC processor). To do that, you'll need to navigate to the Applications folder, select the Safari icon and press cmd+i. In the 'Get Info' window that pops up, enable the Rosetta checkbox. (If Safari is already running, quit it and restart Safari to pick up the change.)
Safari will run noticeably slower in this mode, so I'd only recommend using this when you really have to (assuming it even works! ). -

Slideshow auto run issue?
I notice that when you create an auto run slideshow, if you include thumbnails or back and forward arrows, once the thumbnails or arrows are used - thus interrupting the auto run - the show does not restart to auto run afterwards and there is no play button to re start it?
PhilHello Phil,
It is the expected behaviour of Slideshow. When an autoplay is interrupted then it cannot be started again.
The only options in that case for user is to either use the back and forward arrows or refresh the page to start the slideshow again from the beginning.

Sachin
