How can I combine my DVD files into one file for editing?

Paul LS offers this excellent solution:
Go to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt... the Command Prompt window will open.
Assuming C: is your hard drive and D: is your DVD drive type the following commands...
type: "d:" and press Enter, then type what is between the ".." below:
type: "cd video_ts" and Enter
type: "copy /b vts_01_0.vob + vts_01_1.vob + vts_01_2.vob c:\DVD.vob"
vts_01_0.vob + vts_01_1.vob... etc are the vob files in the VIDEO_TS folder on the DVD.
(Substitute the actual names of the vob files in your DVD's VIDEO_TS folder for "vts_01_0.vob", etc.)
You will find the joined vob file under your C: directory and named "DVD.vob".
This file is a single file with all the component vob files joined together.
Note it could take some time to combine the vob files. Once it is complete it will say "1file copied" in the Command Prompt window.

The effect you are looking for is 'Picture in Picture'. If you want the gap to be there for the duration of the timeline add some 'black video' - from the Tasks Pane> New Item - on the video track above the main track. Resize / position it to where you wish it to be.
Then with your second clip (now on video track 3)
Do the same sizing / positioning for it.
split video and audio and delete or disable the audio.
Cut it where you want the various start/ends of the fade to be.
Delete, or just disable (right-click) the unnecessary segments.
Apply fade in / out to the remaining segments.
[EDIT]
Also check out the 'Presets' in Video Effects. There are a variety of PiP presets that may do what you need.

How can I combine two itunes accounts into one?

How can I combine two itunes accounts into one?

Items purchased from the iTunes Store are permanently associated with the account from which they were originally purchased. Apple provides no way to change this.
However, if you wish to put content from two accounts into a single iTunes library, you can easily do so. Use the command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.

How can I combine my SSD + HDD into ONE SSD?

Hey everyone! I hope this isnt two technical but ill give it a whirl.
I currently have a Macbook Pro 15" with a HDD in the Opitcal Drive (1TB) and a 120GB OWC SSD in the Hard Drive Bay.
This created two different time machines on my Airport Time Capsule (2TB). One was for my SSD the other was my Macintosh HD (Old HDD).
I now plan on selling this computer for the new Retina hopefully coming out in July. But that will only have 768GB Flash SSD (Im upgrading to this).
How can I combine my two time machines to fit on one drive again and have my apps still transfer properly and also where all my HDD folders were to be in the same places.
Thanks!

If you are just interested in having your data transferred to the new system then you can use the setup assistant on the new Mac to do this, which should copy all of your data and settings from to the boot drive. If the secondary drive on your current Mac is just data storage (ie, not a place where you store your home folder or applications separate from the boot drive), then after using the setup assistant you can manually copy the backed up files from it to any desired location on your new system's drive.
After this, you can inherit the Time Machine backup from the prior system, which will use the one for the boot drive only (Macintosh HD) or create a fresh backup, and the copied data from the data drive backup should now be included in this new backup database.
There is no way to cleanly combine the backups of two separate drives directly into one and have it continue to work as the main backup for the drive.
You might give Pondini's following Time Machine migration tips and troubleshooting steps a look-through:

How can we combine our xCode projects into one?

My classmates and I had to make an app as a group assignment in xCode. We were told that we could make them seperatley and combine them later on, but with time ticking on and a otherwise-located tutor we are stuck. None of us are used to using XCode - we understand just the very basics. We have all created our individual projects in single-view application templates and wish to combine them into one tabbed app (the kind of app like facebook or twitter that has a dock or navigation bar at the bottom). Some of our individual projects have more than one ViewController which are linked together; I do hope this doesn't make things even more complicated. I have read something mentioning sub-projects in a new tabbed application but as a whole, we are unsure how to do this, or even if it is the right way to solve the problem. Can anybody help us please?
I realise I've put this in the wrong community but there's no Xcode community and I felt this was my best bet. As i said we are not experts with Xcode and a dummed down explanation would be really appriciated. Thanks in advance!

Sorry, but that really isn't going to work. I suggest you create a GitHub account for the project. Start a new project that has the basic structure you want and placeholders for the content. Then, everyone can check out the project and port their single-view app into the final version, replacing a placeholder. Everyone can work independently for a while. But when it comes time to synchronize the changes, everyone should probably be in the same room to collaborate. Do that part one subproject at a time.

How can you combine multiple PDF pages into one searchable PDF page?

I have scanned multiple business cards and now have a PDF file with over 500 pages (or cards). I would like to be able and create a page with 8 cards to a page and is still searchable for text. Right now, the text is searchable. Basically have 63 pages and not 500.
Example:
If I wanted to find Joe Smith's card, I could search for "Joe Smith" and it would search all of the text and bring me to the page(s). Right now, it will bring me to that page. Is there a way to create a page where I can have multiple cards and the text is still searchable?
I tried to create a page in Photoshop, made 8 different layers with 8 different cards, but when saved, not only was the file way too large, but no text, or font, was detected and there was nothing to search for.
Is there an option to create a page in Acrobat Professional and put 8 cards to a page?
I have InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Acrobat Professional Pro.
Thanks,
mr19th

That sounds great, but I'm lost.
I followed these steps:
1) Open your PDF (in Adobe Acrobat Pro)
2) Chose print
The print/printer options pop-up will show.
3) In the printer section, do not use your normal printer, a printer named Adobe PDF should be an option. Chose it.
4) Under the "Page handling" section, change the Page Scaling drop-down menu to "Multiple pages per sheet".
It works fine, but it looses all of the font information and the search no longer works. How can you do it and save the font info, so the search tool continues to operate.
Am I missing anything?

Can anyone tell me how i do this please?

Hello
Yes, select a sheet, copy it in the clipboard then paste into the main spreadsheet.
There is no built-in tool allowing exchanges between two documents.

How can I combine separate pdf documents into one document with several pages

I have been using Preview to separate pdf pages into separate pdf documents. How might I do the reverse. Preview appears to have combined the documents in the thumbnail, but will not allow saving this. It just saves the highlighted page.

Open all the documents. Choose View > Contact Sheet. All the pages will be shown as thumbnails, separated by document. Select the pages you want in the final document and drag them into the desired order, in one document space.

How can you merge multiple daily backups into one backup for that day?

Ok, so I had some trouble getting Time Machine to backup some new files and finally had a force a "deep traversal." But now I have 20+ backups for today before I did the "deep traversal" because I was selecting "Back Up Now" to get it to backup up the new files.
Because it is annoying to have so many backups for one day, which differ only by incoming and outgoing emails, I am wanting to combine all the backups for today into a single backup for today. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!

Yes. Wait 24 hours, and Time Machine will do it for you. It keeps all backups for 24 hours, but only one (the first of the day) for a month. Thereafter, it keeps one per week, deleting the others, as long as there's room. See #12 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).

How can I combine all my calendars into one and delete the others?

Your old account is the one you migrated, but it has been renamed because the new account had the same name. "Fixing" this is a bit complicated. It is possible to transfer data from one account to the other. See Transferring files from one User Account to another.
A cleaner solution is to do this:
Create a temporary new admin user account with a completely different username.
Log into this new account.
Delete the new account you created before migrating.
Delete the old account you migrated that has the changed name.
Re-migrate your old account from the Mini.
Log into the newly migrated account and delete the temporary account.
And, the simplest solution is to use the migrated account as-is and delete the account you originally made on the new computer.

How do I merge 2 pdf files into one file?

How do I merge 2 pdf files into one file?

I use PrimoPDF (free download) to create pdf files. To merge two docs/pdfs/etc., print the first to a new pdf using Primo. Close it, then print the second and save it to the same new pdf. Primo gives you the option to 'append' or 'overwrite' the original file. By using 'append', you are just adding it to the back of the existing file. You can do this repeatedly to resort or combine existing pages into a new pdf.
Also, I'm using Adobe Reader X.

Hi there,
Another option available to you is to use the online service Adobe CreatePDF (after all, you are in the forum for Acrobat.com, www.acrobat.com, another online service from Adobe). With a Basic subscription you can create PDF files as well as combine multiple files into a single PDF. For more information, please see: http://createpdf.acrobat.com/pricing.html
I'd be happy to give you more information should you need it.
Kind regards,
