E51 Java volume control & short cuts..

Hi,
I've recently purchased a E51. Things looked pretty good until I found the following issues:
1. Volume level for Java games:
It appears that the games either blast in full sound, or no sound. There seems to be no way to control their volume level. I did some googling around and I find it hard to believe that there is no way to control their volume! Either the game developers have to provide it internally in their games or one will just simply have to turn the sound off! In one fell swoop, Nokia seems to have made all the preexisting java games incompatible with the E51. I find this a little bit like cheating/misleading, because one the spec you claim support for Java games. Is there some way via firmware upgrade or something that will enable the user to control the volume level of Java games? Will this be fixed in future?
2. Shortcuts to folders:
I'd like to create a shortcut in active standby mode to my Installations folder, but I'm not able to figure this out. It seems to only allow shortcuts to individual apps. Is there a way to do this? One more thing is, I'd like to move things from the installation folder to folders under the file manager is this possible? If so how do I do this?
I'd already posted this, but I'm not sure anyone read it. I'd like to know what other E51 users are doing with the above mentioned problems. Sorry for the repost.
Thanks.

flodis79, thanks for your reply.
1. In reality most phones do have that support, thats why the bunch of java developers out there don't build volume control within the game. My earlier phone a k500i Sony Ericsson had it. IIRC, even older Nokia phone my 6610 had it.
If I'm reading correctly, Nokia's latest firmware provides this support in the later S40 phones as well as S60 FP2 phones. Not having this control while claiming support for Java games is very unfair.
2. With my earlier Nokia 6610, if I wanted to get to my games folder, I could configure it such a way that when I press the Right key, it automatically opens up. can you think of anyway to get that same convienience. After getting a faster processor, more memory & a better OS(?) I was totally disappointed to see such basic things missing.
One more question, If I wanted to say move an installed app from the installation folder to the Games folder under the file manager, is there no way to do it?

Former PC user has a problem with volume short cut

Can someone help me? My mac book pro is 2 weeks old and somehow I just disengaged the handy volume short cuts on the keyboard. How do I get the volume controls and mute button to come back to F3-F5?

Hi, lycidas, and welcome to the discussions.
Try heading to System Preferences (under the Apple menu). Now select "Keyboard and Mouse" and choose the "Keyboard" tab.
Make sure there ISN'T a tick in the box next to "Use all F1, F2 etc. keys as standard function keys".
Cheers

Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

HT1343 how can i crate a short cut to Network control ?

Hello
i want to create a desktop short cut to my network settings? very easy on a PC seeems impossible on a Mac!!!
any ideas please.

You can't always do things the same way as you would on a PC.
Press the key combination command-space to bring up a Spotlight search. Start to type the word "Network." The Network preference pane should appear near the top of the search results.
If you need to change your network settings often, there's probably a better way to do it.

My mac book pro seems to be distorting (crackling) songs through itunes / any program or site when adjusting volume. (only happens adjusting using keyboard short cut)

What i've got:
Mac book pro: 10.6.8 OS X
What's happening:
A couple of weeks ago, I was adjusting the volume of an i-tunes song using the apple wireless keyboard. When i adjust it, either up or down, crackling and skipping of the song occurs. Happens to ALL songs on itunes, only happens if I am using my keyboard or mac book controls to change the volume. (does not occur when I adjust using i-tunes volume control). I wanted to see if it was i-tunes or not, but it seems even when adjusting volume of a website song or anything crackling and distortion still occurs!
This is complete bull poop.
Let me know if anyone has any ideas, because I am STUMPED.

Since your issue occurs when using iTunes, post in their forum area.

I need help with voice memo and volume control

I really dislike to update my iphone's software. I have Iphone 4S and I have been using voice memo to record lectures for sometime.
It was working well till updated my Iphone's software (IOS or whatever that is). Now I can't transfer my voice memo to my computer
and I have tried so many things people have suggested online which are 1. restart my mac book, 2. turn off and on my Iphone 3.
check voice memo when syncing my iphone with macbook. It is not working. Also, I totally messed my volume control. I went to
Genuis bar and the lady who helped told me that my Iphone has some issues before which is making my Iphone go nuts.
In short, 1. I cannot sync my voicemail
2. my volume does not work....i have to turn it on and off

Did she tell you what these issues are?
Did she help you with these issues?

IPod touch suddenly fast forwarding through songs and videos + voice control screen cutting in

Hi
In the last couple of days, it has started fast forwarding through songs and videos randomly. The voice control screen is also cutting in randomly. It happens as soon as I turn it on and play my first track or video. The only other problem I have noticed is that the volume controls on my headphones are no longer working. The headphones would be less than 6 months old and are genuine Apple ones. I don't think the problem is related because if I unplug them the fast forwarding still happens. I've tried powering it off and then re-starting it and I have been keeping the software up to date on it so I'm not sure what else I can try.
In saying that, this morning it seems to be working properly but I'm worried the problem will return. I still can't adjust the volume via the headphones though.
If anyone has any ideas about what I can do to resolve the fast forwarding problem, I would appreciate the feedback. The headphones I don't really care about because I can replace them.
I've had my iPod touch for a few years and use it pretty heavily so part of me is wondering whether it is just getting to the end of its life. I'm not sure what sort of lifespan I can expect from my iPod touch.
Thanks

Try:
- Try a regular pair of headphones
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Short cut key definitions and symbols I cannot find on keyboard.

Short cut key definitions, In the window drop down menu there is a short cut symbol for the EQ and others that I simply don't understand or see on my keyboard. My question is this, how do I make this shortcut work? The symbol in front of the command symbol.

The option+command+E is represented as the ⌥⌘E symbolism, and by pressing those keys, will show the Equalizer.
Reference the OS X keyboard shortcut guide for additional symbol information. Apple has placed the ⌘ symbol on the command key for a long time, but does not do this with other symbols for shift, control, option, and caps lock.

Want to add by code a short cut of a pdf file to an rtb in vb6, using adobe reader 9

Using vb6 code, I add a pdf file from a list to a richtextbox.
On versions 5 & 6 a "short cut" is placed in the rtb which is what I want so that the document can be double-clicked to view at a later date.
On versions 8 & 9 the file opens automatically "within" the rtb.
Can I make version 9 work the same as earlier versions.
Thanks

We have PDF documents stored on server-side, the ActiveX control and Adobe Reader are installed on client-side.
When users open our web page, click our "Print weekly report directly" button, the ActiveX control on client will be called, and perform the above coding. It tries to download the PDF document from server to client, and pass it to the printer on client silently by using FilePrintSilent function.
The report can be printed, but not correct. It involves some unexpected characters which should be English or Traditional Chinese originally, as shown in the attached picture.
Thanks in advance!

Are there short-cuts for these common tasks?

hello --
i am a professional UX/UI designer, who recently switched from Illustrator as my preferred tool to Photoshop. while i loved the ability to have multiple canvases in Illustrator, the general quality on a pixel level rendering is far superior in Photoshop. In addition, my clients generally are not able to use .ai files. so far migrating has been a good experience and i am happy with it. however, i do find myself frequently repeating a few tasks for which i wonder if there are any short-cuts, work-arounds, or i am just plain missing something. any help will be much appreciated:
generally i find that PS gets very slow when the files is somewhat large (~255MB right now). i do use many layer effects in general, so that might be the issue. but when i nudge a folder or group of items i frequently get a progress indicator. i have all teh performace settings at its ideal and allocated 70% of the 8GB i have in my machine. Still it becomes unusable, when i have upwards 10-15 screens to work with.
Is it possible to assign a gradient to a vector mask, in order to achieve partial transparency? for a layer mask, no problem, but what about vector masks? can i asign a gradient overlay effect to a mask instead of drawing it by hand?
when i do a transformation on a vector shape, the default always seems to be % instead of px, it also defaults to the center orientation point, and height & width are not linked. is there a way to either set this as a preference, or a keyboard shortcut, instead of having to click everytime?
The font smoothing always defaults to "sharp" while i prefer using "crisp" can this be set globally?
is using the position & layer style checkbox in layer comps useful to you guys who might be in the same line of work? so far i find it easier to create new folder for each state, but realize it may cause the slowness i refer to in #1
this is a big one: when i copy layer effects and shape attributes, it seems like there is no simple short-cut command for it. so i end up doing 2 copy & paste operations each time. is there a way ideally to select a shape and then copy & paste both values at the same time?
another big one: i often duplicate a layer or a folder, but then need to move it into a different folder. i fondmyself dragging it all the way around the palette, which is a big hassle. is there a way to just copy & paste a layer into the right position?
i minor nuisance: whenever i duplicate a layer, PS adds the label "copy" to that new layer. i feel it is unnecessary and in the end my file gets somewhat meaningless through it. is there a way to avoid this or have you guys found a better way in doing this?
i know this is quite a lot, but might be also helpful to others. i would greatly appreciate your thoughts & help on those.
thank you in advance,
patrick.

Not sure I fully understand what you're doing now, but here's what I do:
1. I right-click on the layer I want to copy effects from and choose Copy Layer Style.
2. Then I left click and Control-left click on all the layers I want to paste the style to, then right-click on any of them and choose Paste Layer Style.
Is that what you were talking about re doing 2 operations?
Note that if you have styles you use over again a lot, you can create a preset. You access those by double clicking a layer, then clicking on the Styles heading at the upper-left.

Special character short cuts don't work anymore

I have no clue what happened, what I may have done, or if something was installed that made the change, but short cut keystrokes don't work anymore for creating special characters (e.g. "option - (dash) and option shift - (dash) to create an mdash and ndash respectively). I've tried restoring defaults under keyboard shortcuts (sys pref > keyboard) and have Full Keyboard Access set to all controls, but nothing's changed.
I've also scoured Google for the past half hour and have not been able to find anything. Any clues as to what's going on?

I also tried rechecking Unicode Hex Input and the keyboard shortcuts still worked. So it looks like you need to have U.S. Extended checked to support keyboard shortcuts for things like – (mdash) and — (ndash).
I don't think that should be necessary. Either US or US Extended should work fine on its own.
In system prefs/language & text/input sources, check the box for Show Input Menu in Finder. That way you will know for sure what keyboard is active via the "flag" menu at the top right. Accidentally switching to Unicode Hex (which can be done via a keyboard shortcut) will disable your Option key for special characters (which is why I asked you to make sure only US was checked).

HT201401 volume control increases on its own

volume control goes loud without touching it. anyone have this issue?

Maybe try and let the iPod sit in a sealed container of rice for a few days to continue drying out. It might not hurt to then connect the Nano to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Otherwise, it's likely that the moisture has caused some internal component(s) to short circuit. In that case you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced eith by Apple or a third party repair company.
