How can I get Instant notification if a download fails, instead of sifting through the whole library later looking for a fail message
sometimes I download hundreds of articles, pdf's, videos etc at one sitting, and cannot stop to watch whether or not some few of the items "fail" to completely download. Later, when scrolling down the whole list of recent downloads in the library I try to squint and see the tiny words notifying of a failed download but it is easy to miss the warning plus when there are hundreds of items it is VERY time-consuming to double click each item to attempt a re-download . . it usually DOES re-download ok BUT selecting this process sends the cursor back to the top of the library listings and now it takes forever to find your place back in the area where there were several "fails" listed together to continue the correction process for the whole list. Would be SO VERY MUCH better if and when a particular download fails, that a pop up window message would alert to that fact and a simple click within said window would automatically re-start the download, etc. That way a vital article would not later be discovered to have no content or error message, etc, just when one needed it and perhaps was not able to go online to fix it.
You can run this code in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to add a tooltip to the icon of each item in that list.
You probably need to scroll the full list to make Firefox update all attributes and you need to rerun the code in the browser console via cursor Up and Enter to update all tooltips after having done a new download.
If you run the code then you get a pop-up that shows some information of all selected items (Ctrl click multiple items).
You can open the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).
Paste the JavaScript code in the command line and press the Enter key to run the code.

How can I get instant notification of incoming emails on my iPod Touch?
The quesion is as above. I have iPod Touch 4 generation with latest iOS version, I use Gmail and Hotmail. I can read new email only when I go to Mail application, but I don't get any instant notification of incoming emails like on my BlackBerry.
Is there any way/setting to get instant notifications?Gmail will be pushed to your ipod, hotmail has to be fetched because it's a POP account. If you have it set to 15 minutes, (which is as often as it will check) it will check your hotmail server every 15 minutes to see if you have new email.
You'll also want to make sure that it's always connected to a wifi network in order to get those notifications. -
How can I get my 2010 macbook pro to send signal out through the mini display port?
First, what you said is contradictory. You say "can't get a video signal", then say"the Mac wallpaper is broadcast, the mouse pointer is visible". "No video signal" means an absolutely black,blank screen. It sounds like you have plenty of signal.
I am supposing what you are seeing is actually a blank desktop, which is to be expected if your settings are such that you are extending the desktop, instead of mirroring it.
Within the preference panes is a setting that allows you to change this. Open System Preferences, click Displays, and then click Arrangement. You will see that you are extending the desktop. Change that setting. -
I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.
Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over. Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy. Thanks.
Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software! -

Hello! I was on my Mac and then I clicked on iTunes. Then I clicked on Account, and accidentally removed my device from my Mac, how can I get it back? Also when I plug my iPod into the computer, it downloads everything that is on my computer, how can I stop this. please help! please help!!!!!!thank you
Is the iPod still singed into the account isn Settings>iTunes and App Stores and SettingsZ>iCloudl? If it is then I would not be concerned.
Also see:

since you may have started the 90 day window.
For the other "problem", go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says Prevent iPod....automatically syncing. -
How can I get an inserted video (FLV) in Presenter 7 to stay on the screen once it has finished playing? Right now it disappears once it is done. I'd like it to remain on the screen, or loop if possible, until the user manually moves the presentation forward.
Hi,
You may set the slide setting as 'Advance by user'.
So,
a. Insert flv on a slide.
b. On presenter ribbon goto Slide Manager .
c. Select the slide on which flv is inserted and set Advance by user 'Yes'
Hope this solves your purpose.
Thanks,

I have a DVD Acrobat Pro 9. I upgraded laptops and trying to install but the DVD is not readable. How can I get a new DVD or Download Acrobat Pro 1. The product is registered and I have the serial number. PS: Contacting Adobe on this issue is impossible... direct support stinks.
Download AA 9 Pro from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Make a new backup for your archive. You might also take the DVD to your library to see if it is a drive problem. You might also carefully clean the DVD with water and soap (do not use anything that would scratch the surface or you have destroyed it for sure) and see if that solves the problem. This is particularly an issue if you have finger prints or other crud on the DVD. However, it could also be a bad drive as I mentioned. Hopefully the download solves your problem in any case (I would backup the download to CD and/or backup HD).

How can I get dock connector to turn off on air play. There is no longer a choice for sound to be displayed on iPad. I do not own outside speakers. Have already reset. Thanks
Slow, intermittent. Sometimes bootable sometime not. Odd behavior.
Sounds to me like a classic case of your HD failing.
Your SMART status may still show verified, with no errors on the Apple Hardware Test, Disk Utility shows no problems on Disk Repair- this is of no help.
I trust you have a good back-up and a bootable clone.
