How can I edit my own post?

Can I edit my own posts? I thought I used to be able to but just sent one and upon sending, realized there was an error. So I tried to edit it but there was not an icon or link to get to my post and make an edit. Am I missing how we do this? I did search this before sending but nothing came up, which seems odd.
thanks for your help.

Hello:
FWIW, Editing posts does work using Safari on an iMac, but, as I recall, it does not on an iPad. I rarely edit from my iPad, so I cannot remember for sure.
By the way, I would like to have one of those sarcasm switches. Sometimes people do not recognize sarcasm!

How can I edit a post I've already posted?

I saw a button that said "Edit this post." I clicked it and got a notice that I must log in before editing my post. I was already logged in. Completed the longin info again, but still kept getting the message that I had to log in first. Closed Safari, reopened, re-logged in, went to the post, and then the button for editing the post was gone.
I see some discussion in this forum, but have not found a post telling exactly how to make the edit function work. Nor do I get results searching on "edit" or "edit post" or "edit forum post."
Nor do I find any mention of this in the Help section.
I did see one place where a person was asking a host to edit one of his posts. This could imply we can't edit our own posts; but then what is the edit button on a posted post for? In any case, it seems there should be some info about this somewhere, and perhaps the dialog box could be more explanitory (as in saying we must log in, when we already are).
Thank you.
I WAS able to edit THIS message. This time the Edit button worked. Maybe the other time was a fluke, or maybe there is a time limit on hitting the Edit button. But again, why was that guy asking a host to do his editing. Any clarification would be helpful. Alas, I now see only two choices: a button to Discard and Cancel, and a button to Edit Message. I'll go with the latter and see if it means "Post."

Hi ChicagoLarry!
If the 15 minute, Edit time span has elapsed, but you still have the post that you want to edit, open in a browser window, the  Edit icon, will still be evident.
But as you have discovered, if you click on it, you will be asked to login, which doesn't really make any sense.
Ideally, the message would be more like "You're allotted time to edit this post has expired."
I've made a suggestion to the Hosts.
Also, each time you edit an entry, the edit time is extended.
For example, if you edit a post 10 minutes after the initial time of posting, you will then have another 15 minutes, in which to edit again.
Each subsequent edit, adds another 15 minutes.
The discretionary editing of posts, by the Hosts, is usually done only for violations of the TOU, posted personal info, serial numbers, Email addresses, posting of commercial Websites, etc., not for misspellings, punctuation, or other minor posting errors.

How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

It sounds like some apps were purchased using another Apple ID.
ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them. Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password. Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

How can I edit material from 1 or more dvds that I created from my own filmed material in iMovie but which I no longer have in iMovie

How can I edit material from 1 or more dvds that I created from my own filmed material in iMovie but which I no longer have in iMovie

You need to 'reverse engineer' them :
You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

How can i edit / customize the font in the navigation bar in iweb?r

how can I edit / customize font size and color in the navigation bar on an iweb created page?

This tutorial may help: #24 - How to Change the Basic, Rollover and Visited Color of an iWeb Navbar. It only applies to the various colors.
Wyodor has posted code to be put in an HTML snippet that will increase the font size.
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
Increase the size by increments of .1 until you get the size you want. You'll need to publish the site before you'll see the change.
If you only have a couple of pages in your site you can create your own text based navbar. That will give you complete control over font, size, color, spacing, etc. However, be sure to use only Web Safe Fonts or the navbar will not look like you want it on those computers that do not have the font you used installed. This demo page is an example: Text Based Navbar. With more than a couplke of pages updating such a navbar can become a real pain. However, it is much more search engine friendly.

Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc? How do I delete a place I have set up?

Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc? How do I delete a place I have set up? Then I could create a new, correct entry. I'm using iPhoto '09.

Is it OK to reply to my own question?? Thanks to the related posts that appeared AFTER I'd made the post above, I learnt about the 'Manage my places' item under the Windows menu. I felt a bit dumb not knowing this.
BUT it doesn't completely resolve the issue. The info shown in the EXIF (using opt-cmd-I) under Places has the place name I choose, but it is followed by a few other lines that are incorrect and do not seem to be anything to do with any data I can see under 'Manage my places'.
Can anyone explain where these other entries might come from, and how to edit them?

How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
Have fun.

How can I edit or delete a custom label in the contacts list on iOS 7 on iPhone 4S ?

How can I edit or delete a custom label in the contacts list on iOS 7 on iPhone 4S ?

I've been trying to find a way to do this since I updated to IOS 7, and I've just found the solution/explanation, even tho is a bit heavy to carry out.
IOS 6 creates custom labels and save them giving you the option to delete them.
IOS 7 creates custom labels but don't save them, so there is no need to have the option to delete them.
But here comes the problem, if you have some custom labes saved in you Iphone / Ipad with IOS 6 and you update it to IOS 7, the device will keep those labels saved, but you wont be able to delete them.
I realized this by going to contacts on Icloud. There those labels that I had on my devices weren't there. So simply restoring your device and configuring it as a new one to later sync your Icloud Contacts, will solve the problem.
I know this post is old, but I might just try this with iOS 8. I have outdated custom labels that annoy me, because I still seem them in the list as options. If I get desperate enough, I may try your solution.

How can i edit APN settings on 4s

how can i edit APN settings on 4s

The above post won't help you.
The iPhone already contains the correct APN settings for all supported carriers, & any updates to those settings are done automatically. Fact is, most carriers don't want users messing with these settings. As far as a carrier adding itself to this database, if not supported, doesn't work that way.
If you have an officially unlocked iPhone, & you're trying to use it with a non-supported carrier, you're gonna have to manually edit these settings. Directions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2283
And here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4839
Or, you can go here:
http://www.unlockit.co.nz/unlockit/
That web site contains a collection of APN settings for non-supported carriers.

how can i call our own programmes injsp

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You need an additional unique Apple ID for the second device. They're free, so create a new Apple ID for the second device, and use it when you want to FaceTime. You don't have to use it for iTunes, App Store purchases, backups, or syncing, just FaceTime.
More details on Apple ID are found here: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
