Getting Online Contacts as the default view

Hi All,
I looked around and didn’t find an answer
By default, when I launch Skype on my iPad, it displays the entire list of my contacts.
I usually only really care about the ones that are online so every time, I have to click on Lists, then select Online Contacts.
Does anybody know whether there could be any way to get that view as the default when the application launches?
If it’s not currently possible, it’s make a good feature request…
Corentin

On updating to (Windows) Skype 5.10 today, my contact list view has changed. All the Skypeout contacts are now included in the Skype group and cannot be hidden. How can I get back to the position where I can choose to see only the SKYPE contacts that are online (but can change that to ALL Skype contacts regardless and/or Skypeout contacts?
(PS The spell-checker in this application is **** ignorant: it does not even recognise Skype and Skypeout!!!)

How do I get back to the default view when iTunes is showing is the MiniPlayer?

When I fire up iTunes on my PC all that shows is the mini-player. I can't figure out how to get back to the default view.
I have installed the latest update (11.0.3) for the Windows 64-bit system.

Hey Chucky T,
Are you able to click the button under the X in the top left? Here's the layout of the mini-player:

How to change the default view of published iCal's URL

I am publishing an iCal for a nonprofit group and link to the calendar from the group's website. The default URL given (in the send publish email option) leads to the week view of the current week. I would prefer the link to take site visitors to the month view of the calendar. If I go to the month view and copy the URL for it, and use that for the link, I have to change the URL each month, because the URL that comes from the month view will only show the month it was at the time I copied the URL -- it will not change with the new month. Does anyone have any idea of how I can change the URL so that it leads to the month view of whatever the current month is?
I should note that I know how to change the default view in the my browser, but I would rather not have to explain how to do this to all the people viewing the calendar -- just wanting the correct month view to show up when they click the link, without having to change it each month.
I would be so grateful if anyone has some insight on this!
Thanks.

Carlo,
The fact that this question has been left unanswered for over 2 months seems a little negligent on the part of Apple Support.
This Forum is unfortunately not Apple Support. According to Apple:
What is Apple Discussions and how can it help me?  "Apple Discussions is a user-to-user support forum where experts and other Apple product users get together to discuss Apple products. You'll find a wealth of information about your favorite Apple hardware and software products that will help you get the most out of your purchase. You can participate in discussions about various products and topics, find solutions to help you resolve issues, ask questions, get tips and advice, and more.
If you have a technical question about an Apple product, be sure to check out Apple's support resources first by consulting the application Help menu on your computer and visiting our Support site to view articles and more on our product support pages."
In direct response to your questions, I would say that (as observed by the OP) anyone who subscribes to a published calendar can make a change to their desired view using the "Preferences" icon which is displayed underneath the mini-month calendars.
There is no way that I know of to directly or conveniently change the time-range. There may be workarounds, but I could not find a suitable solution for you.
I would recommend that you provide iCal Feedback, if you are interested in informing Apple of your desires.

How can we show a custom column to all libraries in the default view without creating that for all libraries everytime

Hi,
Any help?
Thanks
srabon

You can use powershell script below which loops through each libraries and sets view.You can modify the script to user it for single library as well.
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction SilentlyContinue
$siteURL = "<YOURSITEURL>"
$site = Get-SPSite($siteURL)
foreach($web in $site.AllWebs) {
foreach($list in $web.Lists) {
if($list.BaseType -eq "DocumentLibrary") {
// the variables `$web` and `$list` already reference the objects you need
//$site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($SiteURL) ;
//$web = $site.OpenWeb($SiteURL);
// new instance of the list is necessary to avoid the error "Collection was modified"
$newList = $web.Lists.item($list.ID);
$viewfields = New-Object System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection
$viewfields.Add("DocIcon")
$viewfields.Add("LinkFilename")
$viewfields.Add("_UIVersionString")
$viewfields.Add("FileSizeDisplay")
$viewfields.Add("Created")
$viewfields.Add("Modified")
$viewfields.Add("Editor")
[void]$newList.Views.Add(<VIEWNAME>, $viewfields, "", 100, $true, $true)
$newList.Update();
// setting the default view
$view=$newList.Views["<VIEWNAME>"]
$view.DefaultView = $true
$view.Update()
$web.Dispose();
$site.Dispose();

"I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns. Somewhere I read it could be done in by music icon under Library. Can't find it. Thanks

"I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns that are shown in iTunes. Every time I open it, I have to either go to the options, or right-click to get the pop-up options, and delete "rating" and add "composer." I'd really like to just do it once and be done with it." Somewhere I read you could do this by clicking on the Music icon under LIBRARY then arramge the columns. Trouble is, I can't find a Musi Folder or icon in my user library.
Any help would be appreiated. OSX 10.9.2 iTunes version 11.1.5 Thanks!!! CW!

From the iTunes menu bar try View>Show View Options. Make sure what you want to see is checked and what you don't is unchecked. You can do this (may need to do this) for any playlists, your main Library, etc.
Good luck

How do I get my contacts from the icloud on pc?

How do I get my contacts from the icloud on pc? I am not able to get my contact on a different phone. I can't even see my contact without iphone.
So tell me from where i'll be able to get my contact or contact backup in pc

If your contacts are in iCloud, you can view them from your PC at icloud.com. You can also download them as a vCard as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606. If your computer meets the system requirements, you can also sign into your iCloud account on your computer and sync the contacts using Outlook (PC) or Address Book/Contacts (Mac), as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/.

How can I make folder view the default view when I open Organizer?

I just bought Adobe Elements Photshop and Premier 11. I spent 2 to 3 hours getting my picture video library into Adobe's organizer. I had some problems with duplicate picture (that I wanted to be there - so I had to rename them) and a couple pictures with corrupted metadata. After I got all that sorted out I am a bit miffed about the folder view on Adob'es organizer.
I love that you can switch to folder view - since this is how I have been organizing my pictures for a long time. I would like to continue organizing this way for now until I get a grasp on the other ways I can organize them in elements. However, every time I close and re-open organizer it switches back to the default view instead of folder view. PLEASE tell me that there is a way to set folder view to the default view! HELP!

I am sure it is.
- The normal use of the Organizer is not the folder view, it's the thumbnail view with an organization based on categories and folder. That way you should forget completely where your pictures are stored. Anyway, the folder view in the Explorer is not a map of the location of the different bits of your file, it's only a logical representation. That's easy to see when you are doing a defragmentation.
- The folder view is useful even for those using normally the thumbnail view, but that is only for rare cases when you must change the folder organization, for instance moving files to another drive. The folder view is here to prevent you from changing things from the explorer and outside of the Organizer.
- The new folder list view, which you find 'funny' is there to help better organizing using tags. Its huge advantage is that such a view is created extremely quickly by extracting the last subfolder in the media table : it's the way the database sees the folders, based on its own content, totally ignoring the complex folder organization of your disk with media files or any unrelated other kind of data. You should use it in many cases, the main purpose being assigning tags when you have assigned descriptive folder names. I had suggested such a solution to prevent the long standing bugs in the folder view of previous versions.
So yes, the purpose is:
- to speed up switching modes
- to help folder organization fans to migrate to tags organization
- to hopefully get rid of the old folder organization bugs

Making Quicktime the default viewer for .wmv files.

Whenever I try to open a .wmv file, my default program is iphoto. I have Flip4Mac and I want to use Quicktime to be the default viewer for it. I know how I can get each file to open with Quicktime, but I want it to be permanent. For instance, I download a .wmv file and I want to double click the new file on my desktop and Quicktime comes up so I can view the video. I figure this is a very simple thing to do, I just don't know where to change it. Please help. Thank you.

I find that this does not work- pilot error I'm sure.
When I right click on a .wmv file and chose "Get Info", a small window appears that has a section titled "Open With".It defaults to "Windows Media Player" and has a drop down window, offering me a choice of "Other..."
When I select "Other" a window opens that lets me chose an application. I select Quick Time Player and hit "Add". QT then populates the drop down window. I then select "Change ALL" which causes another window to open that asks "Are you sure you want all your Windows Media Player documents to open with the application Quick Time Player?". I answer "Continue" and as soon as I do that Windows Media Player is replaced in the Get Info window as the "Open With" choice.
I can't see how to make the change. Help!!

I created a ringtone successfully and assigned it to a contact, but the default ring always answers, I've tried deleting the contact, and also shutting the phone down completely, but neither has worked. One tip mentioned making sure format was correct??

I assigned a ringtone to a contact but the default answers. I've tried deleting the contact and reinstalling it and shutting the phone down (holding the home button in and the top button until apple icon appears), One tip mentioned making sure the format was correct. ??? Any suggestions? The ringtone itself works if used as a default, but when I assign it to this contact, no dice.

First thing to always do is write a Certified Return Receipt letter or just copy the post you made and send it to Verizon Wireless and dispute it in writing.
Then walk down to your local court and file a small claims court case against Verizon for all the fraudulent charges. Verizon will call you before that court case and then it may be possible to get this wiped off your account.
Also file a BBB complaint http://www.bbb.org
Again Verizon will contact you to offer to settle. Get the settlement in writing not verbal. Or proceed to court.
Sorry you are going through hell for something you should never have had to go through.
Good Luck

Changing the default view for Line Items in an Auction.

Hello All,
We have a version 5 client who is asking for us to change the default view for line items in an auction.
Currently, if you have an auction setup, and you go to the Line Items tab, the default view is the "Basic View". The client would like to change the Default from "basic view" to "price view".
Is there a way to change this default in the system? Can this be configured using query groups? Any information would be helpful.

Hi wood cloud,
This is not possible, bcz there is no VLV for that drop down and we cant set it to the price view.
Thanks,

Changing the Default View

I would like to know if and how when I pop in a USB flash drive or view my photo
s in "Finder" and select "Pictures" from my favorites menu list, how can my defu
lt view show ALL my pictures in the folder? OS X tries to be clever by showing r
ecent pics, last week pics, and last 30 days pics first as the default view. I j
ust want to click on my Pictures folder and see all the pictures in there sorted
by 'name' rather than me having to do it manually every single time. Can I alte
r the system default behavior?

Does that make it the default view everytime or must I do that each and every time I select the Pictures folder?

How can i change the default view of recent calls?

Hi,
A similar question was asked here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3072545?start=0&tstart=0
And was not answered.
The default view of recent calls is missed calls on my current configuration.
Not a long time ago the default was all calls.
I didn't change it and don't know how.
How can i change it back? I really don't see the advantage of the current default, most of the users navigate to all calls every time.
I use iphone 4 and ios 5.1.1
Thanks.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
However, I am on 6.1.4, so perhaps there is a diference in the iOS version. It is also a matter of one tap on the screen, so seriously, is it that big a deal?

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW?

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!

ddotcom,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?
