Compressor geometry settings disabled

You have any idea why compressor won't let me take a 720x486 sequence and then make a 720x480 mpeg2 movie out of it? It always makes it 640x480, even though the settings are set to 720x480.
Seems like all my geometry settings are locked when doing mpeg-2. Anybody have the same problem?

It gives you the dimensions as 640x480 where, in Compressor itself?
On the other hand, if you're opening the MPEG-2 output movie in QT Player, that is normal behavior (640x480, provided this is a 4:3 aspect ratio movie) as the QT MPEG-2 component displays movies using square pixels.

"Up to"-Geometry Settings not always honored in Settings

Sometimes when I transcode files for a certain purpose (e. g. making small files viewable on a netbook with slow hardware), I use the "Up To" scaling option in the Geometry settings.
Sometimes the height of the output exceeds the constraint. This has happened both with the "Up to 854x480" and the "Up to 640x360" preset. What's going on here?
In one example, the source material was 720x492, pixel-aspect 1.0, the setting was "Up to 854x480", and Compressor set the output size to 720x492. Padding is set to all 0.
In the other example, the source material was 720x480, CCIR NTSC SD pixel aspect, scaling set to "Up to 640x360", and the output was created as 640x480.
I've filed a bug report with Apple, but no idea if something is being done about it.
I was curious if I could possibly have done something wrong, or if others have had the same experience, as I haven't yet found anything about it in the communities/forums.

Delivery of the 'Up to 20Meg' service has been right on time. However, I am 8 days through my 10 day 'training' prog & so far I am not impressed. I expected to reach about 10Meg with my distance from the exchange but I am a long way off this figure, & I have scorned Virgin repeated target customer advertising why I patiently waited for this upgrade to take place.

Display Geometry Settings GONE

I have a 21" Apple Studio Display (VGA) and am using it as a second monitor, but now with 10.6 the geometry settings are gone. Snow Leopard also tweaked/modified my displays so I do need to adjust the image or dramatically lower the resolution to get the image correct - it's distorted to an unusable state.
Anyone know of a third party tool to adjust the geometry of Apple's CRT displays - I have a second 17" in the basement that I'm sure will run into the same issue shortly - as I'm assuming Apple won't be of any help.

My iMac has had a similar problem since the display was repaired while the machine was still under warranty (the problem back then was rolling flickering lines). The display gradually becomes shorter and wider; the only remedy is to turn the machine off and let it cool down for a couple of hours. I have to keep my display geometry settings at a "happy medium" so the Dock arrows on the left side are not totally cut off and so I can read DragThing's tabs at the bottom of the screen.

I need help with Compressor 4 settings to convert .mp4 files to .m4v for iBooks Author

I'm a curriculum design guy with no video background. I have Compressor 4, but don't really know much about how to best use it. I'd appreciate some help with getting the right setting for my project. Screen shots of settings would be much appreciated, since I don't know much video terminology.
I'm making an free iBook for students on WWII propaganda using old videos from the Internet archive.
I'd plan to use Compressor to:
1. Convert the .mp4 files to a .m4v that iBooks Author will accept. (I know I can use QT for that, but it increases file size)
2. Use Compressor to reduce file size so my iBook doesn't get too big
3. Get videos that look & sound the best, given the poor quality of the original source videos.
Here's some sample videos that I'll use:
http://www.archive.org/download/OutOfTheFryingPanIntoTheFiringLine/OutOfTheFryin gPanIntoTheFiringLine.mp
http://archive.org/download/AvengeDe1942/AvengeDe1942_edit.mp4
PS - I will also be editing some of the original videos in iMovie - if I use different settings to prep those videos for iBook Author, let me know.
Much thanks in advance for any help

Generate PDF Settings Disabled

Hello,
I’m using RH9 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine which has Word 2010. In addition Adobe Acrobat 9.5.2 is installed.
I’m trying to create a pdf file using the printed documentation in RoboHelp HTML. I check off Generate Adobe PDF in the settings but PDF Settings is disabled (greyed out) and a pdf file does not get created. I am able to create a Word file.
I can see an Adobe PDF printer installed in Printer and Devices. I can see it and also create a pdf of a page if I choose the Adobe PDF printer from File | Print Design… I can also generate a pdf from Review | Create PDF for Review…
However, PDF output is disabled in File | Generate and in the properties of Printed Documentation.
I have seen some other posts about similar problems but have not been able to get it to work.
Is there a way to enable pdf generation using Printed Documentation?
Thanks
John

You are somewhat between the devil and the deep blue sea.
I think the issue is that Acrobat 9 is not compatible with Rh9. You need to install the PDF add-on (an option when you install RoboHelp) but if you do, it will likely wipe Acrobat.
See Item 1 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh10/using_rh10.htm
I see you are on Rh9 but I think it is the same issue. Perhaps you can check with Adobe first.

Compressor custom settings will not save after reboot

I am having a problem with compressor removing my custom settings after I restart the program. I will save a custom format and it will show up in the custom folder however as soon as I close compressor and restart it shows 0 in the customer folder. I am guessing this is a bug in the new version but does anyone have any ideas? Also where do I submit a bug for compressor? Thanks

I, too, have been experiencing this for quite a while in Compressor 3. I upgraded to Compressor 4 this week, thinking that that, might solve my problem, but no. Same thing is happening in Compressor 4.
I have trashed my preferences, but still no luck.
very frustrating.

Compressor 3 Settings Deleted

I use compressor 3.5.3, and have been using it for a long while, and numerous custom settings folders somehow deleted from my settings tab. I can't find them anywhere on my system...no compressor folder exists in application support. Anyone know of where I might find them to restore them? I have searched the custom settings that still exist in my Compressor settings folder, and none of them come up in any search. Don't these settings have to exist somewhere on my system for them to show up in Compressor? Many thanks for any help you can give!!!

Hi Steve,
Weird though, if I go to the exact path of the folder found this way through normal means, I cannot see this Library folder at all unless I go through the finder and Go.
It's been that way since Mountain Lion. Apple discourages users from getting into their home library and making changes – especially inadvertent ones.

Proxy settings disabled

I have to connect to the internet through a proxy, but when I open the Advanced tab in settings, changing the proxy settings is disabled. I am running Safari 3.0.1

If you read the Safari for Windows download site, several features are clearly listed as coming soon. These are:
"Support for International users
International text input methods
Advanced text (contextual forms, international scripts)
Localized menus and help
NTLM support
PAC file auto-detection
FTP directory listings
Link to proxy settings from Safari (Safari respects the proxy settings in the Windows Internet control panel)
Cookie management
LiveConnect support
Tooltips
Spell checking
Printing page numbers, titles, margins"
You will notice that proxy setting support is one of these features.

7925 Lock Settings -- Disable ability to switch ringer to vibrate?

I have a client that is looking to fully lock down the 7925 phones. We have "Disabled" the "Setting Access" which prevents users from changing ring tones and volume, but a few savy users have discovered holding dow the "*" key will put the phone into "Vibrate". Any way to block this?
On a similar note, is there a way to programatically/administratively change the ring tone? Change based on inbound caller? Must be a way as there is the Phone Customization widget...
Thanks,
Mark

Ok I'm not recommending you do this, I just want to point out that it is possible if you really need to lose the settings menu!! Good Luck.
It is possible but only if you can boot TV from an external hard drive (this process is documented all over the net). Or if you remove the hard drive (voiding your warranty) and connect it through usb (using 2.5" IDE to USB cable - Fairly cheap) and mount it as an image on your mac.
Once you have the apple tv hard drive as an image, using either of these methods, find the 'Backrow' application and use the finder command 'get info' by highlighting it and pressind 'cmd' + 'I' This will display info about the application.
There should be a drop down menu called Plug-ins. In this each of the menu items is listed as a frapplliance. Simply uncheck the settings icon and it wont display.

Email, calander and contact settings disables

I have a problem where my account settings for synchronizing my email, calender and contacts are disabled or "fall out". I've tried to reset the fabric setting and start over with the configuration steps a couple of times and a few days ago it seemed to work. Until yesterday, when it had been disabled again.
I can't even start up the account settings from my phone, since the device gets "stuck" in the loading/reading section when i touch "accounts" in the setting menu which i guess is because the device doesn't find any existing accounts.
I've tried using both my hotmail and gmail accounts but the same problem appears. I've tried several possible settings for IMAP/POP etc and i've used the verifycation site www.blackberry.com/eavt
Also, when i try to add a contact manually, it doesn't get saved.
Desperate for some help! I want my z10 to work! I love the phone otherwise!

Could App settings disable VisualVoicemail audio on some BT headsets?

My Discovery 925 was enabled for visual voicemail audio with the 2.0 firmware; audio was lost after the 2.01 firmware update. I am not certain about the exact timing, but noticed I could no longer listen to VVM after performing the update and that the "Audio" button on the upper right corner of the VVM screen had changed to "Speaker". After updating to 2.01 firmware, various problems with my handset forced me to perform a full restore to factory settings. After this restore, the VVM "Audio" button was restored to the upper right corner, and VVM audio was enabled for at least two message taking sessions.
In the meantime, I restored many Apps and Web Apps to my handset and proceeded to redo the settings for each App.
Could it be that certain Apps contaminate the environment and cause a disabling of audio on my 925?
If so what kind of App would be most likely to disable this particular feature?
Otherwise, the 925 gives me great, clear transmission and reception.

ISCSI Target Settings - disabling automatically enabled IP addresses

Hey guys,
I could find a way to disabling the "new network addresses will automatically be enabled" function within the iSCSI Target Settings or via powershell.
Can anyone provide a good solution? For several reason I can't avoid to get new IPs regulary (dynamic IPv6 Environment)

Hi,
I’m a little unclear the issue. Do you want to the iSCSI Initiator always use a static IP address to connect the iSCSI Target even the IP address is automatically obtained? I cannot find there is such function.
You could refer to the article below to configure network connections between the initiator and Microsoft iSCSI Software Target.

I os 7.4 icloud settings disabled

We update iPad to ios 7.4 and now the iCloud Settings are disabled. it says i need to accept terms and conditions but that is disabled also.
How do you enabled iCloud?

Hello dodo546,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with accessing iCloud and accepting Terms & Conditions on your iPad.
First, I recommend restarting your iPad and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

If you can access your home screen, I also recommend verifying that cookies are not blocked and private browsing is turned off in Settings>Safari:
