Changing album and page colors

I am creating a book and would like to change the outside cover from Green to Red. The only option showing up in background is green or white. The same issue goes for the colored pages of the album. I would like the pages to be red and white not green and white.
Any suggestions on how to expand the color pallet. I have 20 books to order and am not having any luck.

Check your permissions on the folders iTunes uses. Also check and make sure your account is still an administrator account. I installed iTunes on this XP computer at work, virgin install, and after installing iTunes and QT and I rebooted, I found I had been removed as an administrator and had to get our IT people to change my user account back to administrator. I couldn't even delete icons off the desktop after the install.

How to change foreground and background color using CC SDK?

Hello all,
I am just starting to study the sdk (Mac CC). Currently, I am seeking the answer to change foreground and background color using CC SDK?
Is it possible to do so? In addition, will the Image Mode such as RGB, CYMK or Grayscale be effecting such solution?
Thanks in advance.

These are NOT dropdown menus. They are dropdown LISTS.
http://web.me.com/toad.hall/Demo1/Drop_DownMenus.html
And from the links in the Google search you can learn that a list item has no style.
And a dropdown list behaves differently from dropdown menus. Here's how it looks on Mobile Safari :

Changing Album and Track Info

I've run into an issue where I go to the "Get Info" screen to edit album and track information and it's 'grayed' out and won't allow me to make any changes. Additionally, there is no place for me to add album artwork as in other albums.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

How do I Change Font and Font Color in Navigation Menu?

I recently purchased iLife 08 and i'm having a hard time finding the tool to change the fonts in the navigation menu at top of page. Is it even possible?

If you open one of your HTML pages with a suitable text editor, and search for "new NavBar" you will find the section of the page which generates the navbar on-the-fly. It calls a javascript function NavBar with a load of parameters, which look largely like gobbledegook, and determine what the navbar will look like.
If you are at all familiar with CSS you will notice that if you replace all instances of "\n\t" with a line break and a tab, you will be looking at standard CSS information. The "\n\t" is there because you can't pass a literal carriage return / tab pair to a javascript function, you have to use the escape characters \n and \t.
In other words, if you expand:
.navbar {\n\tfont-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace, serif;\n\tfont-size: 1.1em;\n\tcolor: #AFAA9F;\n\tmargin: -2px 0 0 0px;\n\tline-height: 20px;\n\tpadding: 5px 0 12px 0;\n\tfont-weight: bold;\n\tbackground-image: url(homefiles/navfill-v2-21.jpg);\n}
it looks something like this:
.navbar {
  font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace, serif;
  font-size: 1.1em;
  color: #AFAA9F;
  margin: -2px 0 0 0px;
  line-height: 20px;
  padding: 5px 0 12px 0;
  font-weight: bold;
  background-image: url(homefiles/navfill-v2-21.jpg);
So to change the font size, just find the font-size bit and change it:
.navbar {\n\tfont-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace, serif;\n\tfont-size: 0.9em;\n\tcolor: #AFAA9F;\n\tmargin: -2px 0 0 0px;\n\tline-height: 20px;\n\tpadding: 5px 0 12px 0;\n\tfont-weight: bold;\n\tbackground-image: url(homefiles/navfill-v2-21.jpg);\n}
Likewise any of the other properties.
I can't believe Apple didn't spend the few hours required to present the user with the options to change this stuff. The fact that it would have been SO easy makes me believe there has to be more to it than that; some sort of policy. Upgrade carrot? Who knows.
Sorry if this is less than 100% clear. I'm the wrong side of a fine cabernet.

Changing font and background color for all components

Hi,
This is my first time writing a GUI, and I'm pretty new to Swing and Java. I just recently switched from C++, and so far Java seems to be doing a nice job =)
Currently I have a gazilion components (textfields, labels, panels) and I'm wondering if there is a way to change their background/foreground colours without adding in setBackground/setForeground for every single component.
I've done some researching onto using Look and Feel, but there aren't any current ones that suits my needs. And everyone seems to mention that programming your own is pretty complicated.
My boss wants a slick white text on black background interface, so you can imagine that he's not very impressed with the current default greyish colours =)
Thank you for any help!
Cindy

Hi Cindy,
I'm not sure how effective a solution this will be, but you could try:UIManager.put("TextField.background", Color.BLACK); // Default text field background becomes blackThere are many more defaults you'd have to change and could probably achieve it more reliably and simply by creating or editing the properties file that controls the way the look and feel (even if it's the default) is implemented. Take a look at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/UIManager.htmlHope this is helpful

Problem with changing calenders and reminders colors

Hello,
Somehow the colors of my two of four calendar just changed them self. I've four calendar:
Day Off (mark in yellow), Home (mark as purple), Work (mark as blue) and School (mark in green).
The two calendar of Home and Work swap their color so Home is mark in blue and Work as purple.
I've tried to change it colors many time, tried difference ones two but it keep turning back. Only this two calendar infected.
Same problem in reminder. it keep turning orange from purple.
All attemps in iPhone and in iCloud.com failed.
Appreciate help.

even "increment and decrement" buttons of JScrollbar are getting updated with "Button.background" colorWhen you invoke the updateComponentTreeUI() method I believe the code updates the properties of components that use the UIResource interface. The default Colors for components use the ColorUIResource class. See [url http://www.camick.com/java/blog.html?name=uimanager-defaults]UIManager Defaults.
So to prevent a component from being changed you need to replace the ColorUIResource with a Color class for the buttons in question.
You might be able to use Darryl's [url http://www.camick.com/java/blog.html?name=swing-utils]Swing Utils class. You can use the class to get all the JButton components used by the scrollbar. Then for each button you could replace the background by using code like:
button.setBackground( new Color(button.getBackground().getRGB(), true) );

PATH CONTROL? Selection of, changing fill and stroke colors, moving & arranging? WHEN

When is "Ideas" going to have BASIC, vector and path controls???
The ability to select, move and arrange individual paths?
The ability to fill and change stroke colors?
Shape tools?
I would've expected this from the start. This is not 1988 all over again... or is it?
And what's this racket with "layers"? You charge a premium for the app and then want people to pay again for simple features? Layers would be less important if the app could do what it should to begin with.

Hi Mark,
Please post ideas for improvements using the Submit an Idea button, please post each idea as a separate thread, this is so others can vote on the idea if they had the same one or like the idea, The product team reviews these when considering what features to add.
I'm not really sure why Adobe has the option for additional layers as an in app purchase but you could create an idea post to request this changed as well.

Change text and background color when multiple tracks of text

I am finishing up a project and the client wants the final title card to be white background with colored text. I have read a bit about how to do this but I can't fit it into my situation. My text is on four different tracks, each piece of text "For more information," "email address", "contact", "phone number" So I need to change each one. But the way that I have read about it, it seems those answers are only for one level of text.
Help?

You should probably be using boris title 3D rather than the default text generator. title 3D is part of the fcp default install and is available in the same generator options where the text generator is found under Boris.
It will allow you to conbine fonts, font sizes, etc in the same clip.
And then you'll just have to put a color matte on a video track under the clip.
You can of course just put all your text clips on a track above the color matte and manually change the color of all the text.

IWeb 09 major bug - losing site - believe it's photo albums and photo pages

I have repeatedly lost my site now 3 times since upgrading.
The problem appears to be when editing photo album pages with a few photo albums on them and then rearranging those albums and pages between sites.
I can't be more specific at this stage, as it's happening relatively randomly, but am curious if others have discovered similar problems.
FWIW I am recovering by using time machine and backups.

I too had major problems with iWeb '09. I was unable even to publish to a local folder without getting an error message "Unknown error" (really, really helpful). I published a site created and maintained by iWeb '08 four times to separate local folders within an hour, not changing the site at all during that period. Only about 90% of the contents were published. Typically what was missing was some photo albums and blogs, although not always the same photo albums.
After some careful poking about in my MobileMe-published site I noticed that some particular pages were not publishing to a local folder. Upon investigation I discovered that some of the photo albums, whilst appearing in the sidebar in iWeb '09, did not appear on the main albums page. It seems that, for whatever reason, iWeb '09 had lost the links to these. I deleted the pages from the sidebar and then turned my attention to Blogs. This was the other area where I noticed that publishing seemed to have a problem.
One of the problems seemed to be that there was a link to a, by now, 'lost' photo album. Editing the link and then re-publishing to a local folder at last cured the problem. I have yet to publish to MobileMe, but at last things are looking good in the 'test' phase.
It seems that, unless your iWeb '08-created site was relatively simple, some editing HAS to be done in iWeb '09 before publishing. I hope that this answers more questions than it poses!

As far as I can see I have placed pictures on all the pages. I admit that on some pages I could have placed 3 or 4 pictures but I chose to use ony one or two. Could that be the problem?

Yes -
Your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos. You must either change the layout of those pages or place photos in those frames before you can proceed with this book.
The error seems pretty clear - you must have a photo in evey photo frame in order to place your order - so you must either change the layout (if you only want one photo on a page then use a layout with one photo) or put photos in the spots you have not filled

How To Change Hyperlinks And Nav Menu Colors

I continue to see people stating that it's impossible to change hyperlink colors and navigation menu colors until after you publish your site. This is not true. It's quite easy to update your templates with the colors YOU want and when you update the template, you never have to mess with any post-processing. You make a new page? Your colors are already there.
I've gone over this before in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3288533&#3288533
But I'll go over the quick and dirty version here as well. Those who want more detail can post a question and I'll elaborate.
First, do you know how to get into iWeb's inner folders? You right click or control click on your iWeb icon and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu.
Step 2
Once you've done that, you'll see a new Finder window that shows a folder called Contents. Open that and then open the next folder Resources. Within Resources there's a folder named Shared. Open the Shared folder.
You're now looking at your collection of iWeb template files. You'll notice that each template has seven individual page files - each file defines the layout and styles for the page for which its named. This is actually one of the two places where you'll find the data/images that make up your iWeb pages. This location only contains the images. Now I'll show you were to find the data file.
So you're currently here:
/Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/Shared/
You want to go here:
/Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/English.lproj
Now if you speak another language and your Mac's system language is set to the language you speak, substitue English with that language. If your system is set to English regardless of the language you speak, and you use the English templates, then stick with the English folder.
When you're in the English.lproj folder, you will see seven sub-folders and one file named TemplatesInfo.plist. TemplatesInfo.plist is the file that registers the templates and tells iWeb what you've got in your collection. But we don't care about that file for now. We're after the template data files.
The seven sub-folders are aptly named for each of the seven page-types as you can see. Open the About Me folder.
Now you will see an "about me.webtemplate" file for every template you have in your collection. Good job. You've learned something new. Move on to Step 3.
Step 3
If you haven't decided yet, now's the time to decide which template you'd like to update. If you're just along for the ride to learn something new, no worries. We won't do anything you can't undo.
Pick a template file now. Perhaps you chose the White template, or:
White About Me.webtemplate
Right click or control click on this file and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. This will launch a new Finder window that displays the contents of the White About Me.webtemplate file.
You will likely see a handful of different files, but the file you want is the one named Index.xml.gz.
Index.xml.gz is the brain behind the template. Within this file are all the settings for the page you chose and it's really not hard to find what you want and change it. So let's take a peek.
Step 4
Double-click the file Index.xml.gz. This will reveal a new file named Index.xml. You might have to scroll down in your Finder window to see it. Rename Index.xml.gz to Index.xml.gz.backup in case you screw things up, you have your original.
Now, open Index.xml with TextEdit. Do not open the file with a code editor unless you have already formatted the file.
When the file opens, you'll notice it's one gigantic jumbled mess of stuff. No worries, we'll straighten that out. All you need to do is a find/replace.
Find all instances of: ><
And replace with:
<
The line break is important so maybe just copy the lines right out of this post. When you replace all of those, the file will be far more easy to view.
Assuming you've completed that step. You're basically ready to make your change and test it out! Not hard ey?
So let's say you want to change your hyperlink color from grey to blue. Search for this string:
BLDefaultHyperlinkCharacterStyleIdentifier0
When you find that string, you will see a few lines below it, two lines that look similar to this:
<sf:fontColor>
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r=".8" sfa:g="1" sfa:b="0.4" sfa:a="1"/>
This is how the template specifies color. It's RGB100. Your Mac came with a program called Art Director's Took Kit and that application can tell you the RGB100 values for any color you want. Tinker with that and you'll have a lot of fun with this.
So I picked out a nice royal blue for you. The RGB100 values for it are:
R:0 G:25 B:100
What you need to do is update the color line to match those values:
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g=".25" sfa:b="1" sfa:a="1"/>
Notice that you specify these in terms of a percentage, where 25 became .25 and 100 became 1.
Step 5
Save your file. It's time to see your work in action. Open iWeb if it isn't open already and create a new page using the template you've just altered. If you altered the White About Me page, then select that and create the new page.
It there are hyperlinks already on this page, you should already see that they reflect your new color. If there aren't any hyperlinks, then type some text and create one. You should see your new link color right away!
Now if you don't see the new color, either you picked the wrong page or you neglected to rename the Index.xml.gz file a few steps back. If you did not rename that file, then it's still in control of your template. Rename it now and try again.
If you don't like that color, simply swap back to the TextEdit page and change it until you like it - switching back and forth between the file and iWeb to view your changes. Once you're happy, make note of the color you chose and make the change for the remaining six pages in the tempalte you selected. Just be sure to follow the steps for each page you edit. If you fail to see your change, again, check to see that you renamed Index.xml.gz.
Side Notes
For the more technical, rather than editing an existing template, you might want to duplicate and rename a template. This essentially creates a brand new one. If you're pretty good within Finder then go for it, just be sure that you duplicate the files in both locations:
/Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/Shared/
/Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/...
Choose a unique name for the duplicated template and change every single file so that the new name replaces the old one. You would have to register this new template in the TemplatesInfo.plist file as well, but I'm not going to get into that here.
The thread I referenced at the top has all kinds of search terms to find the other hyperlink styles (rollover and visited) and all the navigation menu styles plus a bunch of other fun stuff.
Now, it seems long, but that's because I wrote it well. The shortest version of this I've ever written was two sentences, but that was for a UNIX geek and he got it. It's just as easy for you, but I write it out so that anyone can do this, because anyone can. It's just not hard.
If you have questions about any of the steps, go ahead and ask.

Good. Okay here's how to apply a background color to your nav bar buttons. For example, my Aerolite template sets the selected page to a black background color. The rollover effect uses a gradient fill. I'll describe both of those here.
First, here are the navigation menu search terms:
navbaritem-style-normal-default
navbaritem-style-rollover-default
navbaritem-style-selected-default
navbar-pargraph
The first three set the button effects and text colors. The last one there sets the font, font size and other paragraph styles.
To change the selected page button background color, or gradient or image, first search for it using the search term above. Start from the top of the file because there are two instances of those terms, one where you can set the values, the other is only reference to the first and does not allow you to change settings.
When you find the search term, you might want to insert an empty line above it to help separate it from the rest of the code. You can also insert an empty line below the section. The end of this style ends with:
</sf:navbar-item-style>
Be careful not to mix that up with </sf:navbaritem-character-style>
Now, within this section, you'll find all kinds of settings... stroke, fill, character styles, etc. Notice you can change font color in there. But for this demo, you want to find the section that looks like this:
<sf:fill>
<sf:null/>
</sf:fill>
I'm assuming you're editing an Apple template that does not already have a fill effect. If it does have one, then your example might not look exactly like that.
To apply a color fill, change those three lines to these lines:
<sf:fill>
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g="0" sfa:b="0" sfa:a="1"/>
</sf:fill>
You can see that we've inserted the line that specifies color - something you should be familiar with by now. Here you can specify the color that will become the background of your nav bar button. This example specifies black. Easy no?
If you would prefer a gradient fill, then replace those three lines with this:
<sf:fill>
<sf:angle-gradient sfa:ID="SFRAngleGradient-1111" sf:opacity="1" sf:type="linear" sf:angle="0">
<sf:stops sfa:ID="NSMutableArray-1111">
<sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-1111" sf:fraction="0">
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0.40" sfa:g="0.40" sfa:b="0.30" sfa:a="1"/>
</sf:gradient-stop>
<sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-2222" sf:fraction="1">
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0.64" sfa:g="0.66" sfa:b="0.54" sfa:a="1"/>
</sf:gradient-stop>
</sf:stops>
</sf:angle-gradient>
</sf:fill>
Now, don't panic Here's what this is. The first line allows you to specify the angle of your gradient. Play with the numbers from 0 to 359 until you have what makes sense for your design.
Then, you will see two familiar lines again - the lines that allow you to specify color! The first line is the first color of your gradient and the second color is the second color of your gradient. That's all there is to it!
SECRET: It might be possible to add additional colors, not just two. Do you see the part sf:fraction="0" and sf:fraction="1"? These are gradient stops. I'm willing to bet that if you inserted a thrid gradient stop with a fraction setting of .5, you'd have a three-color gradient!
<sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-3333" sf:fraction=".5">
<sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g="0.25" sfa:b="4" sfa:a="1"/>
</sf:gradient-stop>
I have never tried this - it just occurred to me as I was looking at this code. Big prize for the first person to prove the theory
NOTE: You will notice that the number 1111 and 2222 are within this code. iWeb XML relies on identification tags here and there. It's nothing you really have to care about except if you insert gradient fills in more than one area. Those numbers need to be unique so if you paste that code in for your selected page button and then paste it again for your rollover buttons, you'll need to update the numbers for the second button. Any numbers are fine. Use 3333 and 4444 for the second set, 5555 and 6666 for the thrid and so on. I often just type 4345781476 - doesn't matter.
Next lesson will be images.

How can I convert a pages color document to a PDF Black and White doc.

How can I convert a pages color document to a PDF Black and White doc. Or, covert the color to B&W in a new doc?

> How can I convert a pages color document to a PDF Black and White doc. Or, covert the color to B&W in a new doc?
The general idea is that you colour correct photographs once, archive, and convert with or without colour changes. The archived photograph is unchanged - or we would be colour correcting the same photographs again and again and again.
If you have a photograph with a corrected exposure, you can open the photograph in the Apple ColorSync Utility, apply a colour space conversion to a grayscale appearance using the preinstalled ICC profile, save the photograph under another name, and place that in your pagination.
If you have a paginated document with corrected exposures, and any such non-scalable bitmap or scalable spline graphics as you have chosen to add, you can render the pagination as a whole to PDF through the same ICC profile, carrying out the same colour space conversion on any and all objects.
Caveat: If you intend the pagination for certain processes, in particular offset lithography, then you are probably expected not to render the type to grayscale, but rather to render it to single ink solid black. No software can determine what printing process you intend, you have to understand a bit about printing, and how to set up general colour space conversions in software. Ask your prepress provider, and if the answer is not prompt and proficient, pick another provider.

Albums and Related Photo Page Not Working and IE when Files Local

OK this is a tricky one for me.
iWeb 3.0
Building and testing a site from a local folder on my MBP
Create an album page, add an album from Aperture save and publish to local folder ( Sites )
Looks great in Safari
Testing in Windows XP (vmwear on the same machine) - Firefox works perfectly BUT Internet Explorer 7.0 and the albums will not show on the page. Manually type in the url to the related photo page and and no photos display and clicking the play slideshow does nothing.
HERE IS THE FUNKY part!! I tested a page from Old Toads site with demos of albums and it works PERFECTLY in IE. A check of the source and it too was created with iWeb 3
Tried a simple test site and same issue with local files.
So here is my question to you: Would there be any reason albums would not be working when in a site is being tested from a local file file folder?
Thanks

The plot thickens...
I prefered to test local to review changes and test in all browers without dealing with ftp etc. Good idea at the time but MSFT is too quirky...
I loaded the site (FTP) to my host and the albums work fine in IE... Bottom line is testing from local folders is not reliable in IE... Safari and FireFox are fine...
Side note: Most websafe fonts also sucked on IE (clear type on) so I went with images for various small text blocks. The overhead of the png files is small in the name of quality. Also no chance to get the nav bar to work with IE so that was all manually done.
