Double Tapping for Widescreen video taking is no nonger required

For quite some time the only way to take widescreen video on an iphone was to turn it sideways of course then to dbl tap the screen to get 16x9 recording.
Now that is not the case at all and I have been wasting my time with my new phone dbl tapping away. It is the only camera I have ever used that by default does not show you in the viewfinder what you are actually recording. That is the only use to dbl tap is to see the actual preview. The ending result is the same.
Anyone have any ideas why the default view for widescreen video taking is not 16x9. I do get one use and that is for Facetime but that usually is using the back lense.
My post is to let all those dbl tappers out there know that it is not required anymore with the 4s. I simply did not know this until recently.

have tried to import from DVD since the video I ripped from the disc through Handbrake
Handbrake is absolutely the wrong tool to use for converting DVD footage to use for editing. It is designed to convert DVD-Video for viewing on other devices - NOT for editing.
Use MPEG Streamclip to convert the DVD's VOB files to QuickTime DV/DVCPro, then import the resulting file into your FCP project.

Preparing a file in Photoshop for widescreen video in Final Cut

I have tried two ways; using the the NTSC DV Widescreen setting in Photoshop (exporting w/ PAR turned off as is recommended); preparing the document at 853 x 480 pixels. In Final Cut I am using NTSC DV 48 kHz Anamorphic for my sequence setting. The image prepared using the Widescreen setting in Photoshop looks noticeably sharper in Final Cut than the image prepared at 853 x 480 pixels. I guess this has to do w/ the way the 853 pixels are re-sliced to accommodate Final Cut's resolution? The image using Photoshop's Widescreen setting first displays on the timeline in Final Cut, horizontally squeezed and I have to adjust it's aspect ratio under Motion>Distort from 33.33 to 0. Then it displays correctly. I'm comparing the two images at 200% in the canvas. Will the increased sharpness of the one image over the other that I'm seeing on the timeline in Final Cut translate to the exported video as well and is there some import setting that I need to use so that I won't have to adjust the aspect ratio on the Widescreen images exported from Photoshop, once they're on the timeline in Final Cut? Thanks for any insight anyone cares to offer.

Nick, thanks for your suggestion. By setting the Anamorphic flag on the image in FCP do you mean checking Anamorphic under Item Properties for the image while it is still in the browser and then placing the image on the timeline? That did work. (It set the aspect ratio to 0 which is what I had been doing manually under Motion>Distort.) In the browser I can only select one image at a time and check off Anamorphic in Item Properties. On the timeline I can select all the images and they show up in a horizontal list under Item Properties and I can check off Anamorphic for each one, but then I have to re-place them on the timeline from the browser in order to see them display in the correct aspect ratio. Is that the way it works?

Why is my iPhone 5(with iOS 8) soo slow when I double-tap for multi-task?

I have an iPhone 5 16GB, I bought it 2 years ago, and it worked perfectly. I used it with iOS 6 (the best),7 and now 8. Since the moment I upgraded to 8 (Nowadays I'm using it with iOS 8.1.1) the device starts to open the multi-task slowly, it takes about 3 seconds. I don't know what to do.
Thanks for your attention.

Double space for period. How about comma, too?

It's already kosher with the interface guidelines to
double space at the end of a sentence to get a
period, so how do I get people on the bandwagon
to make the spacebar a dual- or tri-function spacebar:
double tap for a comma, period, or question mark:
|   ,   |   .   |   ?   | <-----spacebar with
-----------------------           punct zones
Double-tap at the left edge for comma space, double-tap
near the middle for period space, and at the right edge
for question mark space. Why have to go to a separate
screen to type a comman and then come back to the text
keyboard? That's inifficient.
Comma, period, and question mark. That hits most of the major
marks used. Yeah, there's the exclamation point, but the
real estate on the spacebar reliably handles only three
marks. Four may be hard to employ, but I may be wrong.
I suggested this to Apple two years ago, and nothing's
been added to the OS.

Firstly, when I said InDesign inflates the space I didn't mean it whacked in a great chunk of space. It just gives a little bit more air relative to the fit of the text around it. You may not always see any noticeable difference. But when I read a book I don't want to see obvious white spaces at the start of every sentence. As long as the full point and following capital letter register on my brain fast enough that I am reading a new sentence, that's good enough for me. I think it makes reading more fluid. If you want to see extra space at the start of a sentence, then it's probably best to carry on with your double spacebar - unless you want to try something more exotic like a fixed width space.
I didn't mean you to literally type <full point><space><any character> into the find. I was just trying to tell you what to input. Type the full point, hit the spacebar, and then use the options list to the right of the find field (shown as a @), select "Wildcards", then select "any character". What you should see in your find field is . ^?
You could then enter . ^?      - that's two spaces. See why I spelled it out as <space>? - into the change to field.

Auto single finger double tap

Hi, i am a disabled useR, I have apps that want me to single finger double tap, i cannot do this, is there a way i can use assistive touch I or something else to double tap for me?

Yes you can. Go to Settings/General/Accessibility and tap on AssistiveTouch. Turn it on (if it's not already on).
On that same screen, tap on "Create New Gesture". On the screen that shows up, record your new gesture (double-tap anywhere on the grey screen). Next tap the Stop button, then tap on the Save button. Give your gesture a name (like DT for double-tap). Tap on the Save button after naming your gesture. If you somehow mess up with recording the gesture or don't like the name or simply want to clear it, you can delete it by swiping it to the left on the AssitiveTouch setup screen where Custom Gestures is displayed. From then on, the gesture will be available in the AssistiveTouch menu under Favorites. You drag the Favorite gesture to the button you want to double-tab and the recorded action will be performed on the desired button.

I want to connect my ipad mini to my Apple TV. There isn't a option when I double tap on my ipad button for connecting to the tv and I also can't connect to home sharing from my iTunes settings. Can someone talk to me in simple terms. Thanks

So I have a ipad min. I want to connect it to my Apple TV. There is no option on my ipad for home sharing which my Apple TV is telling me to do.
Can somebody please just explain it to me in simple terms where I can find the home sharing and what I have to do to connect my Apple TV to the ipad or vice versa.
Everything I have bought from apple in the past month has been a complete let down its taking far to long to connect things and the people who sell the products to you lie about what the product does and can do.
Can someone help me please
Thanks

AirPlay isn't anything to do with homesharing. (Home sharing lets you share the iTunes libraries on computers)
Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router.
Restart your mobile device.

Ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc. I cannot swipe to the second

ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc. I cannot swipe to the second page of icons, black box appears around an icon and then switches to a different one anytime I swipe. A box even appears around the time and battery power. iPod & iTunes are both updated. What is the FIX on this issue?

I had this problem as well. This is what I found by searching online. I tried the fix on my nano 7th gen and it worked. I hope this helps you. Make sure to use two fingers for sliding and double-click the icons to get into settings. Good luck.
It would seem that Voiceover has been enabled on your iPod Nano. The following article contains information regarding Voiceover, and how to disable it once it's been enabled.
iPod nano (6th generation and later): How to use VoiceOver
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4317
To turn off VoiceOver on iPod nano using VoiceOver gestures
From the Home Screen, swipe right or left with two fingers until you see or hear "Page 2 of 2" on iPod nano (7th generation) or "Settings" on iPod (6th generation).
If the icons have been rearranged, or if there are more than four Home screens, you may hear something different.
Slide one finger around the screen until you hear Settings.
Double-tap to open Settings.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear General, then double- tap.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear Accessibility, then double-tap.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear VoiceOver, then double-tap.
Double-tap when you hear "VoiceOver switch button on."
You'll hear "VoiceOver off" to confirm the setting. Now you can use standard gestures to control iPod nano.
Note: You can also turn off VoiceOver by resetting your iPod.

Nightly for android reflow problems: enabling reflow on zoom, disabling double tap zoom?

In the current Nightly for Android build:
1) Page loads, but the font size is tiny
2) Double tapping always zooms in to the same zoom level
3) Zooming out from maximum zoom reflows back to minimum zoom reflow
4) No way to reflow for anything between maximum and minimum size
So, is there a way to...
a) Re-enable reflow on zoom, always reflowing the page to the appropriate zoom level
b) Disable double-tap zooming, also allowing text reflow for any zoom level?

I have this exact same problem with the Nightly Android build, but I cannot for the life of me find the Accessibility settings. Could you please tell me how to get to the Accessibility settings?

Flex 2 14 - Two finger tap for Right-Click not working (Two finger double tap works)

I bought my Flex 2 14 a couple of weeks back.
I want to enable Two-finger tap (not click) for right click.. Unfortunately it does not work.
Weirdly, Two-finger DOUBLE tap works for right click..
How do I get a two-finger tap?
I tried the regitry hacks from here (https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Yoga-Flex-Laptops-and/Yoga-2-Pro-Two-finger-tap-does-not-work/td-p/1406... but no luck yet.
Any help please.

I have found a solution but I am still annoyed I had to do my own tech work to get a common touch figure enabled. (By the way there's many threads out there on Synpatics drivers and touchpads not working right for many people on different machines.)
Anyway, indeed the fastest fix is to modify a registry entry for Synaptics. Just open the regisitry edit software on the Yoga and then go through the folders: HKEY LOCAL / Software / Synaptics / SynTP / Win8
In "2FingerTapAction" all you need is to change the value from "0" to "2" - and presto two-finger tap is now a right click!
Much easier than going through a driver install / uninstall routine or any other of the suggestions I've found out there.
I wish Lenovo had this set up as a default. It's really a great gesture and it's quiet and fast.

That list includes all the apps that you installed to your device directly from iTunes on the computer, or which were purchased on the iOS device and subsequently transferred to iTunes on the computer.
If you right click on any item in that list and choose "Show in Windows Explorer" it will open your iTunes application installer directory on your computer, which should be:
C:\Users\User\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications
In there are all your saved application installers (*.ipa files). You need to delete those actual installer bundles and then make sure to NOT allow the "transfer purchased content" when you sync or backup in iTunes (as that will just put them back on your hard drive).
One caveat to removing those, is that if you ever wish to keep a specific release of a particular app, and the developer replaces the iTunes/App store version with something else, your sole source for your older version will be your own stored copy of it. So for example, when PDF expert released their iOS 7 update, and charged everyone full price for it, if you wished to keep using the previous version on your own devices, then you needed to keep a copy of the installer on your own computer as that older version is no longer available in the store front.

Z2 double tap to wake up the screen is not working properly when taking it out of pocket

when i take my phone out of my pocket, the double tap function is not working properly, sometimes i have to tap over and over to wake up the screen.
do you know why? does same thing happen to yours ?
and please dont tell me not to use it. i have paid 700$ and i have right to use my phone fully functioning.
any advice ?

Actually it needs some practice, you need two gentle taps on the upper third of the phone (around the place where the clock shows on lock screen), tapping too hard or tapping on the lower part of the phone will require repeating the tapping more than one time. This is from my personal experience.
