Help with creating a specifik smart playlist

Hi everybody.
I'd like to create a smart-playlist that only contains *albums with a total playtime of 25 minutes or less*.
I've tried a few things but haven't succeded.
I'd greatly appreciate if anyone could help me!

That cannot be done with iTunes Smart playlist logic.
The Smart playlist rules operate on one song at a time. They cannot operate on multiple songs at a time. So something like the playtime of an album, which requires adding times across the multiple tracks of the album, does not work.
If you wish, you can manually tag tracks in those albums, using the Grouping or Comments field, and use that as a criterion in the Smart playlist.

Creating a custom smart playlist *HELP*

Having a very difficult time creating a customized smart playlist and looking for help.
I would like to create on using the following criteria:
Songs from two different genres
Plays greater than 8
Seems simple enough but I get either zero results, plays greater than 8 from all genres, or music from all genres
What am I doing wrong?

Akeel,
I think the rules shown below will do what you want.
To be included, a song has to have more than 8 plays and be in one of the two stated genres.

Tip for creating auto-updating Smart Playlists for iPod

Short Answer:
Don't use Smart Playlists that use rules with nested playlists which aren't completely on iPod.
Long Answer:
If you're like me and use nested Smart Playlists, make sure that any Smart Playlist you want to have auto-update on the iPod doesn't use a rule which uses as a criteria a playlist that isn't fully present on iPod (exclamation point next to the Smart Playlist in iTunes when connecting iPod to your Mac).
For example, I have Smart Playlists to exclude certain tracks in other Smart Playlists (Streams, Spoken Word,tracks under 1 minute, etc.). These are tracks that I usually want to exclude in other Smart Playlists but don't want to add those rules each and every time.
The problem is that iPod looks to see if that 'excludes' playlist is present, which obviously it isn't because by it's nature it's designed to exclude tracks. If a nested playlist isn't present it seems the auto-update will not work.
My solution was to create a new Smart Playlist specifically for the iPod, which contained all the rules of my "master exclude" Smart Playlist and any other I wanted specifically for the iPod.
My beef with Apple here is that I can't duplicate a Smart Playlist, which is possible in iPhoto. Being able to do that would make things much easier.
I have since gone about creating 'excludes' playlists so that the playlist itself excludes tracks; previously I was creating a Smart PLaylist that contained (included) all the tracks I wanted to exclude, then using that as a rule (Playlist is not 'Excludes') in other playlists. The second method worked fine on iTunes, since all the tracks are present, but it creates problems on iPod.

I've posted a better version of this thread in the "Using the iPod with color display" forum.
APPLE DISCUSSION ADMINS: Please delete this thread. Thanks!

Help with creating a Quiz

Hey i need help with creating a quiz with scoring and all.
I need a helping hand so if you can get me started that
would help a lot.
Use the Question class to define a Quiz class. A
quiz can be composed of up to 25 questions. Define the add method
of the Quiz class to add a question to a quiz. Define the giveQuiz
method of the Quiz class to present each question in turn to the user,
accept an answer for each one, and keep track of the results. Define
a class called QuizTime with a main method that populates a quiz,
presents it, and prints the final results.
// Question.java Author: Lewis/Loftus/Cocking
// Represents a question (and its answer).
public class Question implements Complexity
private String question, answer;
private int complexityLevel;
// Sets up the question with a default complexity.
public Question (String query, String result)
question = query;
answer = result;
complexityLevel = 1;
// Sets the complexity level for this question.
public void setComplexity (int level)
complexityLevel = level;
// Returns the complexity level for this question.
public int getComplexity()
return complexityLevel;
// Returns the question.
public String getQuestion()
return question;
// Returns the answer to this question.
public String getAnswer()
return answer;
// Returns true if the candidate answer matches the answer.
public boolean answerCorrect (String candidateAnswer)
return answer.equals(candidateAnswer);
// Returns this question (and its answer) as a string.
public String toString()
return question + "\n" + answer;

Need help with creating a brush

Hi guys,
I wanted to ask for help with creating a brush (even a link to a tutorial will be goon enough ).
I got this sample:
I've created a brush from it, and i'm trying to get this kind of result:
but it's only duplicates it and gives me this result:
Can someone help me please understand what i need to define in order to make the brush behave like a continues brush instead of duplicate it?
Thank you very much
shlomit

what you need to do is make a brush that looks like the tip of a brush. photoshop has several already but you can make your own that will be better.
get a paintbrush and paint a spot kind of like what you did but dont paint a stroke. make it look kindof grungy. then make your brush from that, making sure to desaturate it and everything.
EDIT:
oh, and if you bring the fill down to like 10-20% your stroke will look better

I need help with creating PDF with Preview...

Hello
I need help with creating PDF documetns with Preview. Just a few days ago, I was able to create PDF files composed of scanned images (notes) and everything worked perfectly fine. However, today I was having trouble with it. I scanned my notebook and saved 8 images/pages in jpeg format. I did the usual routine with Preview (select all files>print>PDF>save as PDF>then save). Well this worked a few days ago, but when I tried it today, I was able to save it, but the after opening the PDF file that I have saved, only the first page was there. The other pages weren't included. I really don't see anything wrong with what I'm doing. I really need help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't find it. I went into advanced and then document processing but no batch sequence is there and everything is grayed out.
EDIT: I realized that you cant do batch sequences in standard. Any other ideas?

I need help with creating some formulas

I'm not sure if anyone around here can help me, but I'm trying to create a Numbers document and need some help with creating a formula/function.
I have a column of amounts and I would like to create a formula which deducts a percentage (11.9%) and puts the result in another column.
If anyone can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is an example that shows one way to do this:
The original data is in column A. In column B we will store formulas to adjust the amounts:
1) select the cell where you want to formula (in this case cell B2)
2) Type the "=" (equal sign):
3) click cell A2:
4) now type the rest of the formula which is: "*(100-11.9)/100" that is asterisk, then open parenthesis, 100 minus eleven point nine close parenthesis forward slash one hundred
The Asterisk is the multiply operator (times) and the forward slash is the division operator (divide)
now hit return. select cell B2 and hover the cursor over the bottom edge of the cell:
drag the little yellow dot down to "fill" the formula down as needed.

Help with "Date Added" when Syncing Playlist to iPhone5

So I recently switched my 4s for the 5 and first had trouble with the backup files. I was able to figure out my issues there and fix them. The only left over issues was that the playlist on my iphone as was missing some media in my smart playlist that should update automatically. I didnt think much of it and figure when I got home I would plug it in and download everything and I should be fine. Got home and updated my ipod first with my new music (it had been a month since updating so wanted it to have everything), then plugged in my iphone, everything updated but I then noticed that some older songs were above my newest songs (not in reverse order like an old bug I dealth with), so I right clicked ont he smart playist and selected "Copy to Play Order" and tried to re-sync.
No luck, so I looked at the date added column and notice that my older mucic ONLY ON MY IPHONE had today's date instead of the original download date? I looked at me smart playlist in iTunes and it was correct. I even tried to remove the "Date Added" column from the iphone playlist menu which put everything in correct order but when i went to re-sync it reverted back and brought the column back up. So I next tried and manually un-synced all my music and than to re-sync again, NOW all my newest music is grayed out on my iphone with the sync icon next to them but wont download at all.
BTW, all the music I'm having toruble with shows as (10/1/12) as the "date added" date but the last time i downloaded anything was (9/26/12).
Not sure what to think about all this??

These are both great help to me, While I would love to continue hearing more tips I do have a question to add which you may know the answer to.
When using the trim tool to make a video shorter or longer, because when setting the in and out points i can't make them exact until it's on the timeline, can you shorten or lenghthen it per frame, like when using the alt key to move the video, instead of dragging with the mouse?
Thanks so much (:

Need help with creating template. Changes are not going through to index.html page

Hi all,
I have an issue with my template that I am creating and also a question about creating template Regions (Repeating and Editable).
Somehow my changes to my index.dwt are not changing my index.html page.
Also my other question is: For my top navigation bar and left navigation bar links, do I need to select and define each individual button or link as Repeating/Editable Region? or can I just select the whole navigation bar (the one on the top) etc...
Below are my steps for creating my template...I am kinda fairly new to using DW and this is my first attempt to making a template following the DW tutorial CD that came with DW CS3.
I appreciate any help with this...regards, Dano
-Open my index.html file
-File/save as template
-Save
-update links - yes
-Select Repeating and Editable Regions (I selected the whole top navigation bar and selected Repeating Region and Editable Region, same with the left side navigation links)
-File close all
-Open the index.dwt
-Save as and selected the index.html and chose to overide it..
When I make changes to my index.dwt it is not changing the index.html
I feel that I am missing some important steps here.....

Help with creating a layout.

I need help creating a layout for my program, but am having tons of problems. I just an't that good at creating this, and it's been driving me insane.
Here's the link to how I want it to look like. http://s94182144.onlinehome.us/randomstuff/layout.JPG
In panel 1... that will be a cartesian plain, so it will pretty much be empty until lines and stuff are drawn in there.
In panel 2, there will be two drop down menus and a couple of buttons
In panel 3, there will be a bunch of things, with two buttons on the bottom.... and this section has to be scrollable.
Any help with the basic layout will be helpful... I can put in the buttons myself. For reference, the whole programs size is 400x800.
Thanks,
sachit

Read this section from the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/visual.html]How to Use Layout Managers. You can combine multiple Layout Managers to get the effect your want. By default the content pane uses the BorderLayout, so one approach might be:
JPanel center = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
center.add(panel1, BorderLayout.CENTER);
center.add(panel2, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
getContentPane().add(center, BorderLayout.CENTER);
getContentPane().add(panel3, BorderLayout.EAST);
It turn you would layout panel1, panel2 and panel3 with the appropriate layout manager. Panel2 could be something like:
JPanel panel2 = new JPanel( new BorderLayout() );
panel2.add(comboBox1, BorderLayout.WEST);
panel2.add(comboBox2, BorderLayout.EAST);
JPanel bottom = new JPanel();
bottom.add(button1);
buttom.add(button2);
panel.add(bottom, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

Help with creating a flash banner

Hi,
I need some help with a creating/replicating a flash banner I
saw online. I cant find it anymore but I will do my best to
describe it.
The banner had multiple images layered on top of each other
horizontally. Each image covered the image to the left of it. When
you moused over an image the image expanded to full size while the
other remained contracted.
How can I create something with the above description? Are
there any good tutorials for something like this or maybe someone
can provide me with a few tips/tricks for doing this?
I am proficient in PShop and a beginner with Flash so the
design portion is not the hard part, just the programming/setup in
flash is what has me stumped.
Thanks in advance for any assitance.
Regards,
Mike

Update:
The banner on this template has an exact example of what I am
shooting for.

Using a trigger won't solve your problem. You are trying to use child table triggers to maintain parent table information.
There is no transaction control to ensure that the parent table will be updated with the correct information.
One process could update child record 1 while another process is updating child record two. Each process will see a different total if they try to compute the sum of all child records since the first process will see the 'old' value for the child record that the second process is updating and the second process will the 'old' value for the child record that the first process is updating.
So the last process to commit could store the wrong total in the parent record withoug an exception ever being raised.
See Conflicting Writes in Read Committed Transactions in the Database Concepts doc
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14072_01/server.112/e10713/consist.htm
>
some one ask me this quotation in interview
and im told him i can't understand this structure for database he said just do it
>
And I would tell them that using a trigger is not the right way to accomplish that since it could invalidate the data concurrency and data consistency of the tables.
Sometimes you just have to tell people NO.
