Different "Keep" Settings for Multiple Podcasts

Anyone know a way to set the Keep settings for podcast son a case-by-case basis? I know you can set it to something minimal like most recent, last 3, etc. for your whole podcast library and then choose the Do Not Auto Delete option by right-clicking on individual podcasts to keep all the episodes of the selected podasts.
However, I have many podcasts that, for now, I want to keep all episodes; I have one podcast I'd like to set to only keep the most recent; and one podcast I'd like to set to keep the last 10 episodes.
Any workarounds, or AppleScript options that people know of? I checked out Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes, but didn't find anything there. Thanks!

josh,
i came on here looking for the same answer...this is probably the single most lame setting (or lack thereof) in itunes...I love apple and i'm a mac enthusiast who has converted 2 friends in the past 3 months, and i think they've done this for simplicity's sake, but it drives me up a wall to have a universal "keep" setting. The "Do Not Delete" is not enough, i'd love to have different keep settings for my podcasts.

Different sync settings for different podcasts?

Here's a dilemma: From what I can figure so far, if you choose a Sync option (from the Podcast tab for your iPod when it's connected to iTunes), that option will apply to ALL of the podcasts you are sync-ing to your iPod - whether that's one, several, or all your podcasts. Well, what if you want different sync instructions for different podcasts?
For example, is there a way to have iTunes do the following, all at once, on the same iPod:
Sync only the "1 most recent" episode from Podcasts A, B, and C,
...AND...
Sync "all" episodes from Podcast D.
Because, seems to me, to keep all of the episodes of show D on iPod, you have to either have every episode of shows A, B and C loaded (which you don't want), or else have ONLY show D load (with not even the latest episodes from shows A B and C, which you WOULD like to have).
Would this require setting up a Smart Playlist for each show, or am I overlooking some other (obvious?) way of achieving separate sync instructions? Anxious for your insights.

Can one create a smart playlist for multiple podcasts and to play one after the other on your iPod? I want to combine podcasts of the same topic in a smart playlist. When I tried to do this I chose smart playlist, album starts with, and then did it again for each podcast I wanted. That didn't work. If it can be done how do you do it?
I have a fifth generation iPod which is always updated to the latest as well as the itunes.

Say for example I want to put different car related podcasts in one smart playlist. Car related podcasts such as Wall Street Journal Car Cast and NPR Car Talk. Can it be done and if so how?

Is there a way on how to create different Synch settings for iPhone / iPad

Okay,
My first time in this forum. I have an iPad and an iPhone. Everytime I sync my iPad and my iPhone with iTunes the sync settings are the same in both devices. So everytime I sync devices Apps that I have in my iPad show up in iPhone and vice versa. Is there a way to create different sync settings for my iphone and iPad?. Basically I do not want Apps from my iPads to be synched with iPhone and Apps that I have in my iPhone to be synched with my iPad. It is kind of annoying that everytime I synch I have to remove apps from my iPhone.
Can I also do the same for playlists?

Each device has its own set of sync preferences. What you may be seeing is the result of the Automatically sync new Apps option listed underneath the list of apps on the Apps tab. Untick this for each device next time you sync and then purchases made on one device won't automatically turn up on the other. You shoud also make sure automatic downloads are disabled in Settings > iTunes & App Stores.

Looking For Optimal Wireless Settings For Multiple WRT310N's

Folks, I have 3 Linksys WRT310N routers (all at the most current level firmware) around my house serving as both wired and wireless access points. I have Verizon DSL service (3 MB) as my ISP. We have a couple of IBM T60p laptops (w/Win XP Pro), a Lenovo S12 netbook (w/Win 7), and my son also has an Apple iPod Touch all that access our home network via the wireless network provided by the WRT310N's. The WRT310N's all have unique static IP addresses (DHCP disabled - IP addresses being issued by the Verizon DSL modem/router). My current wireless settings are as follows:
Wireless / Basic Wireless Setings:
Wireless Configuration = Manual
Network Mode = Mixed
Network Name (SSID) = (something other than linksys!)
Radio Band = Auto
Wide Channel = Auto
Standard Channel = Auto
SSID Broadcast = Enabled (Need enabled or the Apple iPod Touch will not find the wireless network)
Wireless / Wireless Security:
Security Mode = WPA2 Personal
Encryption = TKIP or AES
Passphrase = (Something really clever here!)
Key Renewal = 3600 seconds
Wireless / Wireless MAC Filter:
Enabled (With all the appropriate MAC addresses permitted)
Wireless / Advanced Wireless Settings:
AP Isolation = Enabled
Frame Burst = Enabled
Authentication Type = Auto (greyed out - can NOT change)
Basic Rate = Default
Transmission Rate = Auto (greyed out - can NOT change)
N Transmission Rate = Auto
CTS Protection Mode = Auto
Beacon Interval = 100
DTIM Interval = 1
Fragmentation Threshold = 2346
RTS Threshold = 2347
My goal is obviously to provide the best performance on all the wireless devices that we have. Since the laptops and netbook have a variety of OS's (and sometimes our neighbor comes over with his Mac laptop) I'd like to keep it flexable for those PC's and the Apple iPod Touch. I've also read that if you have multiple wireless access points you should set them all to different channels. If so, which channels? Or, should they all be on the same channel so one could walk from room to room without losing their wireless connection? Since I have 3 WRT310N's I'm interested in what recommendations there are for performance to keep the laptops and netbook communicating using wireless "N" yet keeping compatible for the Apple iPod Touch on wireless "G". Thank you all in advance for any advice or info.

Hmmmm, for quite some time I've left the SSID the same on all the WRT310N routers. At one time a while back I was told to do this by a Linksys technician. They all are cascaded (LAN-to-LAN via the ethernet ports) off of the 4 ethernet ports on the Verizon DSL modem/router in the similar manner described in the following article:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=785463d9ecaf4cac84aed245b08d615f_3733.xml&pid=96&s...
(Switch) ethernet port 1 on each WRT310N is connected to ports 1 through 3 on the Verizon DSL modem/router. Hence, each WRT310N is acting as an access point (wired and wireless) throughout the house. I do NOT use the 'Internet' port on any of my WRT310N routers. They each have a static (fixed) IP address like 192.16.1.10, 192.168.1.11 and 192.168.1.12. They all reside on the same LAN subnet as my Verizon DSL modem/router which is responsible for issuing DHCP IP addresses for the entire home network. The remaining (switched) ethernet ports 2, 3, and 4 on each WRT310N is left open for local hard-wired devices like printers and multimedia devices (like XBox 360, etc.). So bottom line is that each WRT310N is acting like a 4-port network switch that also has wireless capabilities (like a WAP).
By keeping the SSID the same on all the WRT310N routers I can keep a single wireless profile on each device (i.e... PC's) for my entire house. So I can go and access WRT310N #1 (with let's say with SSID 'ABC') in my living room and later go into my home office room and access WRT310N #2 (with the same SSID - 'ABC') with the same wireless profile. I believe it is the same concept used when someone stays at a hotel and accesses their public wireless network. That way the hotel customers only have to set their SSID to let's say 'HILTON' regardless of which floor or room they are in.
So the part that I'm really focusing on is the wireless performance aspect. My laptops like to operate on 'N' and get pretty good connection speeds (usually receive around 270 Mbps). The Apple iPod Touch (2nd generation) only goes up to 'G' so I believe I need to keep a 'Mixed' Network Mode. The part I'm not so sure about is the Channel Width and whether or not all 3 Linksys routers should be on the same channel (or set to Auto) or if I should manually set the channels and provide some separation between their channels. That's where 'Channel Width' and 'Channel' settings get a bit over my head. Now when I previously had multiple 'G' Linksys routers I contacted Linksys Technical Support and they said to use the same SSID and that I should separate the channels, but that was with their earlier 'G' versions. Now that I have a more recent [N] version and the channel settings can be 'Auto' I'm wondering if the correct settings would still be to again separate the channels or maybe leave it up to the routers to function in 'Auto' mode.
And if I need to set each router up individually what recommended settings should they be? As follows:
WRT310N #1:
Network Mode = Mixed
Channel Width = ?
Channel = ?
WRT310N #2:
Network Mode = Mixed
Channel Width = ?
Channel = ?
WRT310N #3:
Network Mode = Mixed
Channel Width = ?
Channel = ?
Here is a Cisco web page that I'm using as a reference:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=21194
I'm also looking for any suggestions on tuning the Advanced Wireless Settings like Beacon Interval, Fragmentation Threshold, RTS Threshold, etc. Again, my wireless user devices are both G and N and have various OS's.
Thank you again in advance for all your help!!

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).

Different sync settings for 2 aTVs from 1 iTunes library

Is it possible to have separate sync settings for 2 different aTVs using the same itunes library?
I'd like to view movies and TV shows only from the aTV in my bedroom but I'd like to see all my iTunes content on the aTV in my den? Is this possible without streaming? Can the iTunes library sync one way with the den aTV and a different way with the bedroom aTV?

Your only limitation here would be the size of the tv HDD, if your library is larger than the space on the tv drive then you will need to stream some content.

Best project settings for multiple outputs

Hi guys,
I have a project that will be needed to be outputted to many different formats (web, hd, sd, flash etc).
What's the best settings for a project of this type... obviously the highest common denominator... but your suggestions would be appreciated.
PS... I'm is Australia (PAL), and the project will only be displayed in Australia.

You got it - highest resolution requirement. Then use Compressor to create the lower rez versions from your exported Quicktime.

Copy/Paste Develop Settings for multiple images

I'm trying to update some settings on multiple images. In Develop mode, I start by making the corrections to a single image, and then click the "Copy ..." button. I then select multiple images in the Filmstrip and click "Paste". This works just fine, but only on the 1st image/highlighted image, and not the whole selection. Am I doing something wrong here? Shouldn't I be able to update multiple images, at once, like a batch process?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Lee Jay
How do you know this is on purpose? It seems like a bug to me.
See this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2951457
If your reasoning was correct, how come the settings do paste to the entire target selection and not just the active image when the toggle in the lower right hand side of the screen is switched to Auto Sync?
Would love to hear more of your insight, because this is really confusing me.

Different user settings for scrolling in tables or ALVs

Hi Experts,
I have a strange problem.
I have a Web Dynpro Application that uses the UI Element table. For one user who uses it the scrolling mode is a scrollbar and for an other user the scrolling mode is a paginator. That appears not only for this application. ALL applications on the system have this difference for users. So, not only in tables does that appear. In ALVs too!
Does anybody know where I can configure this for every single user?
Thanks a lot!
Best regards,
Ingmar

The only thing I can figure is that the user getting the paginartor has accessibility turned on:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/19/e64941bfb4de2be10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
That is the only option I know of that should override the system or application settings for scrolling. In particular accessibility can be turned on at the user profile level:
To do this, in transaction SU01 for your user name choose the tabstrip Parameters, insert the parameter ID ACCESSIBILITY_MODE with the value X, and save the entry.
Or within the portal:
To do this, in your user profile in the portal, under General Information select option Activate Accessibility (Screen Reader Required) and save your entries. This specification is evaluated by Web Dynpro ABAP.

Can i have different alert tones for Multiple email accounts?

Hi there, DawgFan1980!
I understand the purpose of the different notification sounds. The iPhone only allows 1 tone for e-mail accounts. At this time, this cannot be changed.

Login Settings for multiple language sites

I'm using the standard ADDT Control Panel Login Settings for a site that has multi-country and multi-language areas. However, the global redirect pages (login, redirects) can't be customised to each specific country area as they need a direct page reference. How do I get round this so I can have individual page redirections per country?
Ta!

Hi Matthew,
 
 just an idea: let´s assume you´re storing the country areas in the main "users" table like this:
 
 - en
 - de
 - fr
 
 ..., you could...
 
 1. add a recordset to the global redirect page like this:
 
 "SELECT country_area FROM users WHERE user_id" equals the Session Variable kt_login_id
 
 2. implement a simple standard PHP redirection which embeds the recordset´s value, like this:
 
 <?php header('Location: http://www.yoursite.com/page_'.$row_queryname['country_area'].'.php' ) ; ?>
 
 This should translate to "page_en.php", "page_de.php" etc etc
 
 Cheers,

Is it possible to have different margin settings for odd and even pages?

Hi guys.
I am formatting a book I want to get printed and it would be very helpful to have different margin settings on the odd and even pages so the text won't fall too close to the gutter (as happened in the proof copy I ordered!).
It's possible to do this on Word, but I can't seem to do it on Pages? Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Thanks Peter. I upgraded to Pages 5 a while back. I guess my next question is.....is there any way I can downgrade to Pages 09...anywhere I can still download it from?
Seems a bit of a backward step, but needs must

Setting default equalizer settings for a podcast

There are several spoken word podcasts I subscribe to where the audio is too quiet - I have to crank my car stereo to max to hear it while driving, and then am unable to have the windows down even a crack or have the vents on high.
I am able to correct this problem by changing the equalizer setting to "Spoken Word" and more importantly, increasing the volume adjustment on that same tab. It is tiresome to do this to each new podcast episode after it's downloaded. I've tried changing the settings on the podcast listing itself, which makes the changes to all currently downloaded episodes of that podcast, but does not make the changes to future downloaded episodes.
Anybody know of a way to somehow automate changing these options on all future episodes of selected podcasts?
Apple - how about a new feature in the next release of iTunes?

...changing the equalizer setting to "Spoken Word" and more importantly, increasing the volume adjustment on that same tab. It is tiresome to do this to each new podcast episode after it's downloaded....
I can offer a suggestion to make this step easier.
Create a new Smart playlist of...
• Podcast is true
• Play Count is 0
• Kind contains audio
This should gather all your new podcast episodes in one playlist while excluding any video podcasts. Select all tracks, open Get Info, and apply the desired EQ & Volume Adjustment to all of them at the same time. Even if you are reapplying the setting over and over to unheard podcasts, it's still much faster than doing it one at a time.

Can I alter security settings for multiple users of fingerprint reader on iphone 5 - i.e. if i allow my daughter to set her fingerprint, can I stop her from accessing itunes store to make purchases???

My daughter wants to access my iphone 5 by adding her fingerprint. Can I alter the security settings so that she cannot make itunes purchases etc?

Not if you want to be able to continue to make iTunes purchases too. You can lock out access to iTunes store using Restrictions (which always needs a passcode to change, Touch ID won't work for changing/removing Restrictions) but that means no one can use any of the restricted features.
iOS has no concept of multiple users with differing access levels like this. Touch ID stores multiple fingerprints, but they're supposed to be all from the same person, the device's owner, not multiple users.
You're going to have to buy your daughter her own iPhone... ;-)
