Changing video kind for multiple videos

How do u change the video kind for multiple videos? I have more than 200 tv show episodes in my itunes and it would take forever to change them to movies one by one. Please help:)

Make sure you have the latest version of itunes software (itunes 6.0.4)
can download here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
Easiest way to do this would be to have all 200+ shows in one playlist. Click on one show in the list, then go to edit and click on "select all."
From the Advanced menu, choose Convert Selection for iPod. While converting, you will notice an item named "Converting Songs..." appear in the iTunes Source list. The "Converting Songs..." item disappears after the conversion is over.
For a complete walkthrough, refer to the kbase article "Verifying iTunes video conversion and iPod video syncing using sample QuickTime files":

Can't change sort settings for multiple items in iTunes 7.1

iTunes 7.1 introduces a great feature—the ability to set a separate Sort Name, Sort Artist, Sort Album, etc. This means that "Weird Al" Yankovic songs can finally appear down among the Y's instead of up at the top of every list, by changing the Sort Artist to Yankovic, Weird Al.
Unfortunately, this feature is fatally crippled in 7.1. As far as I can tell, you can only change the Sorting information on individual tracks. When you change the information for multiple tracks, the Sorting tab doesn't show up. This renders the feature all but useless.
Let's say (hypothetically) that your friend is an enormous nerd (in theory) and your friend has 139 "Weird Al" Yankovic tracks (for the purposes of this example only, of course). Instead of just selecting all these tracks at once and changing the Sort Artist to Yankovic, "Weird Al", I (I mean, he) has to retype this information for each individual track. That's crazy! Surely this must be a bug.
Core 2 Duo 20" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I just found the solution to this myself.
In a very un-Apple way, this is an undocumented feature only accessible by right- (or control-) clicking.
1. Change one track to your desired sort settings (for instance, set the Sort Artist to Yankovic, Weird Al.
2. Right-click on that track. In the contextual menu that appears, there is a new submenu called "Apply Sort Field." If you choose "Same Artist," it will apply your new sorting information to all your other tracks by "Weird Al" Yankovic (or, if you are not a huge nerd, any other artist you substitute).

ITunes cannot change video kind for multiple files

i put many video files to library, and then i want to change each video kind into music video, but unfortunately i can't find an easy to change those files at once.
i have to change them one by one.
my question is: is it possible to change "video kind" of many files at itunes library at once? how?
thx

No, it's not possible to batch-edit the fields on the Video tab. This seems like an outright oversight and will probably be corrected in a future version soon. What's worse, after you take the time to change the Video settings on your files one at a time, iTunes won't bother saving all the changes in the file itself. The Video Kind setting will change to the default "Movie" when the file is removed and added back to the library. For instance, all the "TV Show" files you back up to disk become "Movie" when added back to the library later. You have to edit the Video tab one by one again! It's maddening.

Changing Assignment Details for multiple user

Hi everyone,
In the RelationShips tab of a bundle, how can we change the "Assignment Details" for multiple user at once? Per exemple, I have a bundle that have about 100 user assignments. The bundle show on Start Menu but no on the Nal. If we want all of our users to have this bundle on the Nal Windows, how can we instruct that easily and quickly, instead of selecting each user and changing the Assignment Details ?
thank you for your help !

I am also trying to update the shortcut locations on many apps for a mass amount of users. Mr. Pond, or dominicm, can you explain or give a example ZMAN command that would be able to do this? From the documentation I can find it only seems to affect the distribution and scheduling but not the shortcut location.

Can't change "Open with" for multiple files

For some reason, all swfs on my computer won't open in the Flash player that came with Flash 9. If I select 1 swf and set it to open with the player, it will work, however, if I select multiple ones, get info and try to set them all to open in the player (or "Change All") I get a dialogue saying I don't "have privileges to change the application for these documents only. Do you want to change all similar documents to open with the application Flash Player.app?" This is rediculous because I could so this in Tiger just fine. Also, I'm the admin and i'm in MY account, so I should be able to do anything I want, right?
Any insights? I've repaired disk permissions by the way.

This is sometimes a problem with the launchservices database. You can try the following to fix it:
Rebuild LaunchServices Database
For Tiger users
Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt paste in the following command in its entirety:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServic es.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Press RETURN.
For Leopard users
Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt paste in the following command in its entirety:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Press RETURN.
If this isn't successful then there may be other problems involved. You can try this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
You can install the freeware preference pane, RCDefaultApp - VersionTracker or MacUpdate - which is useful for extensive control over various file associations.

Programmatically change management cert for multiple (600+) subscriptions

Our service has 600+ subscriptions, and they all share the same management cert.
Due to security reason, we would like to change management cert on the subscriptions periodically, but I have not yet found a way to do so programmatically.
I have found the "Add Service Certificate" cmdlet but it only allows you to upload the "Service certificate per service",
and I need to be able to change "Management cert" for all 600+ subscriptions.
Could you please tell me if there is a programmatic way to do so?

I'v just write a blog show how to use Managment class libraries.
You can refer to my
blog, or Download the
code sample I upload to MSDN and add the managment class libraries to your project.
Then Add Certificate like this:
ComputeManagementClient client = new ComputeManagementClient(cloudCredentials);
ServiceCertificateCreateParameters parm = new ServiceCertificateCreateParameters()
Data = certByte,//the certificate your want to add(convert to byte[] the certificate should be pfx )
CertificateFormat = CertificateFormat.Pfx,
Password="YouPassword"
var hostedServices = client.HostedServices.List();
foreach (var service in hostedServices)
client.ServiceCertificates.Create(service.ServiceName, parm);
Console.ReadLine();

Changing field labels for multiple people.

I am quite new to applescript, so please bear with me.
I am just looking for a script to change a groups phone label to mobile. If anyone could point me in the right direction, or even give me a simple script, it would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't tested this (not quite brave enough), but I'd expect the script to look something like:
tell application 'Address Book"
-- get the people in the group
set thePeople to every person of group "GroupName"
-- iterate through them
repeat with eachPerson in thePeople
  -- get their phone numbers
  set thePhones to every phone of eachPerson
  -- and iterate through the phones
  repeat with eachPhone in thePhones
   -- set the label appropriately
   set label of eachPhone to "Mobile"
  end repeat
end repeat
end tell
Note this does mean if someone has multiple phone numbers they'll all be labelled 'Mobile'. I don't know how you want/expect to address that.

Changing Phone description for multiple devices

Where on CUCM do i change this?
I have turned every stone on our CUCM 10.5.2
Best regards
Jón Ragnar

Hi jonragnar,
that's the correct behavior:
<'Device Type'>: for only one 'Device Type'
<'Device Type'>-<'Device Phone > Description'>: for 2 or more of the same 'Device Type'.
As soon as you have only one 9971 and only one 7940, the only option is the 'Device Type' ... if you have two 9971 (for example), then you would be able to change the Description.
Regards.

Changing white balance for multiple photos

Hello All, and Happy Holidays...
During the holidays I was taking photos at a family gathering, about 125 or so, under tungsten light. I forgot about setting the white balance on the camera to tungsten until half-way through the evening. Is there a way to easily change the colour cast for the initial photos? I'm hoping that there is a "retro" white balance setting since all these images will need the same colour shift. I am using an old old version of photoshop that doesn't have a batch function, though I am waiting for the CS3 - but that could take awhile since its coming through the school.
Thanks in advance!!

SethB:
You can try changing the temperature setting in the Adjust pane of iPhoto to what suits you best. Then click on the copy button (in the Adjust pane) , go to the next photo via the arrow buttons and click on the paste button. That will let you go thru the photos fairly fast applying the same correction to each.
Happy New Year
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How do you change the volume for multiple clips in one go?

Hi all,
Im having some trouble with audio. Im posting this in a rush so sorry in advance if its a bit muddled! Im editing snow reports with a journo piece to camera (track one lapel microphone) with overlay (track two nat sound ).
1. is there a way to only bring in track one only and track two only from the source monitor?
2. Is it possible to adjust the volume on multiple clips that are on the timeline (so that i can bring down the nat sound for all of the overlay track two)
At the moment im bringing them into the timeline and adjusting them individually. I tried lowering the volume on one clip and saving it as a preset but it wont let me.
your help is greatly appreciated
Paul

Duplicate the audio once editing is done. In the Mixer window, apply the Fill Left effect to one audio track, and the Fill Right effect to the other. Then adjust the mixer appropriately.

Options to change jdbc adapter for multiple server nodes without flag in db

Due to load, we are about to add a new server node for additional J2EE memory within XI. Reading the notes and discussions about this, it is apparent that the server nodes don't distinguish between themselves in terms of polling. i.e. If we have a jdbc channel that polls every 24 hours, and you have 2 server nodes, it polls twice at the approximate same time every 24 hours.
Question I have is how have people got around this issue where you cannot update the information to say that the data has been read. i.e. Our scenario is reading the complete table contents every day and sending all information to another system.
Hence, if we have 2 server nodes, we will execute this message twice. When we add a 3rd server node, we will have 3 messages sent at the same time per day.
One complicated option (I think) is to use an application client on XI to schedule a job which calls an ABAP Proxy on the integration client which starts off a ccBPM which in turn reads the database hence single threading this process.
Anyone got any sensible ideas?
Regards,
Matt
ps. Ignore the obvious design flaws with this approach as there is no other option in this scenario due to restrictions in the end system.

Hi Matt,
Extending Bhavesh's point, and assuming the receiver system is SAP, then why not schedule your calls on the receiver system, as the consumer of the data.
The report name and optionally a date range can be written from the RFC via XI to a separate table in the database. The select statement can join the table to the existing view. The update statement can update the new table as your source table or view is obviously out of bounds.
The advantage of this approach is that it results in a classic request response where XI is transparent.
We are planning to do something very similar in our own project.
Best Regards,
Bill

Automatic way to change the connection for Multiple universes

We recently migrated the BO objects like universes and connections from 3.1 QA to 4.1 Dev.
But now we want to point all our universe connections of 4.1 Dev system to the BW Dev system instead of BW QA.
Is there any automated way of doing it ?
Thanks,

Change info for multiple videos at once

I am a mac newb, just got my mac book pro and am trying to learn and get things set up. I have my media on a NAS (Qnap 451) and have added my existing videos to my library (without copying them locally to my library), and of course they show up as home videos. I know how you are supposed to change the
info for multiple files, I select them all and choose get info and change the options tab to Movie. When I do that nothing happens at all, I can do the files one at a time and they change fine, but if I even select just two files it doesn't work. Any ideas?

Well an update in case any one else had this issue. I don't know why but it only works if I choose Movie, then before choosing OK I switch to a different tab like the artwork tab and then back to the options tab. No idea why that would have any effect on it.

Changing the material options for multiple selections doesn't seem to work

Hi!
Is it just me or is it not possible to select multiple layers and change their material options like specularity and shininess all at once? Selecting the layers and clicking on cast shadows certainly does work like this, but for some reason when I do the same and change the specularity, it changes only for that layer, regardless of the selection for the other layers.
Are you able to change material options for multiple layers in one click?

Works for me... Not sure what else to say. The only thing to consider would be that you need to expose the same properties on all layers or else AE can't match the property streams, so it may be advisable to hit AA to expose all material options instead of just U or UU to reveal changed/ animated properties.
