Games in manual mode help

I put my ipod to manual mode so that I dont' have all the songs on my computer for more space.
I'd like to keep it in manual but I can't put my game back on the ipod, cause it used to be there.
My question is. If I turn back on the auto sync for games will it turn everything to sync and whipe out my songs? Because I've had to re-add everything twice because I didn't have it all in manual. So does anyone know for sure that it won't touch the music?

No, it wil not affect your music's syncing settings.
I've tried this kind of thing myself. For example, setting "Podcasts" to "automatic-update" didn't affect my music settings, which where on manual.
In addition, I've never heard of that happening, and your settings will be safe if nothing weird happens (the computer promptly shuts down, for example..which I've never heard of with your situation either.)

Help with manual mode of Menu Widget in Muse

I'm building a family web page in Muse and I'd like to create a menu of my secondary webpages only. Since the Menu Widget's "menu type" options are Top Level pages, All Pages (neither option will work for me), and Manual- it seems like I should be able to use "Menu Type: Manual" and simply type in the menu items I would like- which I've done. What I can't figure out is how to link those menu items I manually created to the sub pages of my website.
A bit of background on my website structure. My top Level sites are: Welcome, and then 3 separate pages for each family member- and each member page has a few secondary pages (about, photos, contact):
Welcome
Member 1
about
photos
contact
Member 2
about
photos
contact
Member 3
about
photos
contact
My main site navigation- i.e. the menu widget for top level pages- is above my header (Light Gray). Below my header, I would like a horizontal or bar menu for ONLY the sub pages of that member: ie. About Member 1, Member 1's Photos, Contact Member 1 (Dark Gray)
I've created a menu widget in the Manual mode- I just can't seem to figure out how to link each menu option to the correct page. Currently in preview none of these manual menu items work.
Thanks!

Hi Scarff.
When you opt to use manual mode for the Menus, you need to manually link the pages to menu items. To achieve this , you need to have the menu item selected and then using hyperlink option as shown in below screenshots link the corresponding page to it :
I hope this helps.

Ipod is in manual mode... help

My iPod is in the manual mode and has music & apps that are different from the ones in my iTunes. Is there a way to change it to the automatic-syncing mode, and not lose all of the things in my iPod?

Thank you so much.
But just in case I have to buy another one. (This one is about 4 years old). I don't need anything fancy, no video or anything. And I don't want to shuffle anything. I just want to go walking, select the tunes I want and do my thing. So if I have to buy a new one, do they still sell the IPOD nano. Or do I have to buy some fancy updated version. I know there are 1st generation, 2nd generation, ones with videos, etc. Do you have any idea how much a simple Ipod Nano would cost??
Four years ago I paid $149 for mine. One would think (with all the newer versions), that maybe my little Ipod Nano would now being sold for half the price? Do I have a shot here?
Thank you so much for all your help!!!

Can't set to manual mode if it's not listed in iTunes!

Hi,
I'm struggling with this infuriating "feature" where iPods can only be synced with one computer to ensure everything being up-to-date.
I just bought a new computer and want to copy new music to my iPod shuffle (2nd gen).
I don't need auto-syncing, I just want to copy music one-by-one, and I keep getting the Erase and Sync option when I connect the iPod. I've read other threads and it sounds like manual mode is what I need, but once I hit cancel at the Erase and Sync box the iPod doesn't appear in iTunes anywhere for me to change to manual mode! How can I get iTunes to recognize the iPod so I can set it to manual?
The iPod still works fine and I can see the files in My Computer, browse the iPod_Control directory, etc. So I don't think the iPod is broken in any way.
Also I tried editing the preferences in iTunes (I'm on v8 on Windows Vista) to stop auto-syncing with iPods and iPhones (that's an option somewhere in preferences) but it didn't help.
Any ideas!?
Thanks,
Raphi

An iPod shuffle cannot contain music from more than one computer at once; the manual mode referred to is present on other iPod models, but isn't available on the iPod shuffle.

How do I set the Shutter Speed in Manual Mode on my EOS 70D

I recently was forced to upgrade to a Canon 70D after my 50D died from a fall. I am not happy with the ease of setting the Shutter speed while in Manual mode. The only way I can currently set the shutter speed while in Manual mode, is to go to the info screen and set the shutter speed with the touch screen. The manual states that I should be able to set the Shutter speed with the Main Dial, behind the shutter release. ( which is how it was on the 50D). I can control the Aperture with the quick control dial. The Function Lock button is off.
I am sure this is do to some setting I have wrong, that is not allowing me to fix this issue, but I cant figure out what it could be after hours on the net and in the manual. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me with this issue.
Thanks
Gene

Another possible solution is to use a battery grip on your 70D and see if the dial on the grip will change the shutter speed.
There are some discussions about this problem on some earlier models Canon DSLR. Check it out.

430exII fires twice in Manual mode on radio triggers??????? I need it to stop!

I've been using 430exII on radio recievers and have had no problems until now. I have it set to manual mode, on same channel as transmitter, didn't mess with any custom funcions, but am getting a double burst. How can I stop this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Which radio triggers are you using? Not sure how much Canon is going to help with 3rd party triggers.
So it's only happening with one of your flashes? What if you put that trigger on a different flash? That way you can narrow down the flash or the trigger. If it's the trigger I'd start with the battery. Cheap triggers like the Yongnuos act funky when the battery starts to die. I'd also double check your transmitter and receiver contacts, they can make things act up as well. Pull them all the way off, all the way on snug and lock.
If it's the 430 acting up I'm not even sure where to start. Batteries, contacts for corrosion, the usual stuff I guess. See if it works properly on camera. If your transmitter allows a test fire try that manually and see if it still double fires.

Removing songs in manual mode

About a year ago my computer crashed and I managed to switch ipod to manual mode until I could repopulate my itunes library. Now I've decided to put my Ipod back into manual mode and delete all my music off my PC to save space on my hard drive. I seem to recall being able to access all the music in my Ipod when it was connected. But now, I can't seem to do so, and I would like to remove some music from it, but can't figure out how. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks!

If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes 7 source list click on the chevron (the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the usual song list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly as above by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
To select multiple items such as all the songs in an album, click on the first track in the list hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight the selection. Then press the delete key.
To summarise, you start by highlighting the song/video/selection in either the iTunes library or on the iPod song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod

T3i manual mode failure

T3i works ok in all auto modes and all manual mode when in live view but fails in all manual modes when not in live view.
Mirror flips up but doesn't return for 20 seconds or so and no picture is recorded.
Used to work well in all situations, suddenly developed this trouble. Appreciate your help!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You have mirror lock up turn on. With Mirror lock up, the first press will flip the mirror up, then the second press will take photo. If you only press once, the mirror will flip up, viewfinder goes dark, and it will release after few seconds. In liveview, mirror is already lock up so this is not applicable.

Add shutter speed settings and manual focus in the manual mode, please sony :'(

I am so deeply craving for shutter speed settings in the manual mode so I can take very great night shots.
Manual and infinity focus would be nice as well

First of all: I competely agree. Low light shots where anything you are photographing is moving = very bad blur.
Second of all: whilst I don't think it's right that you should have to pay money on top of a flagship device to get the camera working as you expect, there are a couple of this party apps will help until Sony fix this. Camera FV5 has a lot more settings including AE-L (in focus modes) which stops some of the post processing that can mess up low light shots. But be prepared the high volume of settings to play with also makes it less accessible as an all purpose point and shoot app. Camera Zoom FX is somewhere between this app and the stock appin terms of usability and functionality if you want to try that too.

Changing autofill to manual. Help please!

I cannot figure out how to take the autofill off of iTunes. I have read some stuff but can't find what they are telling to click on.
Help?

Did you already delete the songs from your computer?
If not:
1- Connect your iPod and let it do one last auto-sync.
2- On the iPod summary page in iTunes, select the option "Manually manage music and video"
3- Click on the "Apply" button at the bottom-right of iTunes.
You should now be able to safely connect your iPod to your library (and any other) without it being emptied out.
+If you have already deleted songs from your computer and your iPod is still set for auto-sync+, then your iPod will be emptied out (to match your library). So you need to prevent an auto-sync before changing to manual mode. To do that, connect your iPod to iTunes and immediately press and hold the Cntrl and Shift keys until your iPod appears in iTunes, then continue holding for a few seconds more. Be sure to hold the Cntrl and Shift keys! If you don't, your iPod will complete an auto-sync and get emptied out. Once you have the iPod recognized by iTunes, perform the 3 steps above to put it in manual.
Just a comment -- if you're deleting the songs from your computer to save space, don't. The iPod is not meant to be the only source of your media files. All it takes is one little hiccup (which iPods can do) and all your music is lost. If space is a problem, invest in a larger hard drive or get an external drive for your computer.

Can't transfer songs in manual mode

All the instructions say that in manual mode songs can be dragged from the music library and dropped into the iPOD but it won't work. The only way we can transfer is to set the preferences to automatic. Does anyone know how to transfer in manual mode?

Janet,
The songs with the ! next to them means that they have either been moved from the location that iTunes normally looks for them, or that they've been deleted from the computer.
Either way, iTunes cannot find them. If you were to double click on one, you would get a message to this effect and be asked if you want iTunes to look for it.

- 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

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

HT4314 There is a defect in SpellTower. I was in the middle of a game of Puzzle Mode on my iPhone and had passed the 63,000 point level. The game then disappeared without any record. My wife had a similar problem on her iPad in Tower mode. Fibonacci44

Has anyone else had the following problem with Spell Tower? I was in the middle of a game in Puzzle mode on my iPhone and had passed the 63,000 point mark. I paused the game (as I had many times before). When I tried to resume the game, the game had vanished without any record. My wife had a similar problem in Tower Mode. In addition, the Apple support page says that, to report an issue, one should click on a specified link at the bottom of the information page for the App in question. There is no such link on the SpellTower information page. Fibonacci44

There are two separate issues here.
1. There is a potential problem with the game Spelltower. That needs to be discussed directly with Spelltower. My attempted emails to Spelltower have been bounced.
2. Apple, on its own webpage, purports to establish a procedure for reporting an issue with an app. But that procedure does not work with Spelltower because someone at Apple neglected to include a link on the relevant information page. I have been trying to find that contact info without success. Apple should take ownership of supplying that contact info.

I have a Macbook Pro and have just purchased a GSP hidden objects game. It says on the box that it is compatible and when I try and install it it tells me that installation has been successful. However, it then says that PowerPC games not supported. Help?

No game icon appears on my desktop and I don't know what I can do.
Really ****** off as i've not played these games since switching from a windows PC to a Mac and was really excited!! All I want is to be able to play my new game that arrived in the post today. If anyone can help I would be really really grateful....
The game says that it needs Mac OS X 10.3 or higher to run so I don't understand what the problem is or how I can fix it!!

beckyj3,
the last version of Mac OS X which supported running PowerPC apps on Intel Macs was Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). If you’d like to play this PowerPC game on your Intel MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to install Snow Leopard on it and boot into Snow Leopard. (Note that the last MacBook Pro which natively supported Snow Leopard was the Early 2011 model.)
The game was almost certainly published before Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) was released, so back then, all versions of “Mac OS X 10.3 or higher” would have supported running that PowerPC game.
