How can I insert the mysterious iPod Atom to make a movie iPod friendly?
Hello. I've been looking for an answer to this problem all over the Internet and haven't found anything! An Quicktime GURU out there?
THE PROBLEM:
I have several mp4 video files that iTunes won't sync to my iPod. They play well on QT, FrontRow and iTunes but then iTunes says "This video cannot be played on this iPod".
Yes! you know that message too...
We all have gotten that message before, even when we know the video will play perfectly on the iPod because it was encoded on H.264, AAC, etc, etc...
Doing a little research I came to the fact that the problem is that these videos are missing an "iPod Atom Tag" which tells iTunes that the video can actually be played on the iPod. Seems quite simple but wait, there is a catch...
Nobody knows how to insert this iPod Atom in the mp4 file!!!
I found a nice UNIX app called AtomicParsley which let's you edit these tags but then I'm missing the important information... The iPod Tag code and the value which is supposed to be set to...
THE QUESTIONS:
Does anyone here has any idea on how to push the iPod Atom inside the mp4 file? Will AtomicParsley do the job?
Which is the code of the iPod Atom? Is it uuid?
Which value should I assign to it?
Is there anything else I have to do to the files to make them iPod friendly?
Most people would say that the easiest way is to use Quicktime Pro to re-encode the files but then the files grow in size, they loose some quality and features and not to mention that it takes forever to re-encode them again...
I believe that this app, AtomicParsley can do the job if I know which tags to modify and the values I should set them to but that's the information I'm missing...
I would really appreciate if someone can point me into the right direction and give me a little help with this matter. Thank you very much!

I appreciate your comment but I guess you didn't exactly understand my problem...
Handbrake is a program that extracts the video from DVDs and encode it into a movie file, usually mp4 files like the ones I need to fix. It won't work with movie files that you already have on your computer.
Here is the deal again:
1 - I have mp4 files in my HD. I am not encoding from my DVDs.
2 - AtomicParsley is a program that can insert atoms in an mp4 file and it only takes a few seconds to do it and the movie itself remains untouched. I believe this tool will work fine but...
3 - I just need to know what to tell to AtomicParsley. That is the iPod Atom code which I think is "uuid" and the value it must have which I really have no idea... :P
Using this tool will insert the atom in a few seconds so I don't have to re-encode everything from scratch. Each encoding takes a few hours for a whole movie. Why spend many many hours re-encoding when you can solve the problem in a few minutes...
Again, thank you for your comment. I'll keep waiting for an answer and keep the re-encoding option as a last resource.
Alec.

My itunes account doesn't list "devices" above the playlist, as the syncing instructions give. How can I sync the itunes I have purchased & downloaded to my computer, to my ipod shuffle? The device is plugged into my computer, but nothing happens. Shouldn't the computer recognize the device? It doesn't. Please help!
As a test, shut down your computer and disconnect ALL USB devices. Do this procedure to Reset the shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Start up computer with nothing connected, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if it's not a laptop). Run iTunes. Connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer. See if there's any improvement,
If the shuffle is now recognized, there may have been a USB device conflict previously, or maybe all of the devices connected at the same time overloads the USB bus (for power). An iPod charges its battery while connected, so it is a high-power USB device. -

How can i increase the volume of 6plus when make phonecalls
How can I increase the volume when I make the phonecalls. I already tried the normal method like press the slide volume button but it doesn't work.Is there any other methods to solve the problem?
Did you try that while on a phone call? Also there are different volumes for different devices. If you have your earbuds in and set a volume that will change the volume for when your earbuds are in. If you have a bluetooth headset you can set a volume for that.

How can i insert the insertion point in each paragraph first
Hi all
Please find the below script, this script place the insertion point in end of the each paragraph, but i need to place the insertion point in first letter of the each paragraph. Please help.
var myDoc=app.documents.item(0)
var myLib=app.libraries.item(0)
app.findTextPreferences=null;
app.changeTextPreferences=null;
app.findChangeTextOptions.caseSensitive=false;
app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes=false;
app.findTextPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle="TX"
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat="^p"
var myFinds=myDoc.findText()
for(i=0; i<myFinds.length; i++)
var myIcon=myLib.assets.item("Para").placeAsset(myFinds[i].insertionPoints[0])[0]
myIcon.appliedObjectStyle=myDoc.objectStyles.item("Para No")
Thanks & Regards
Nithin@Nithin – inserting the anchor by placing the asset is changing the position of the next anchor, because the script's for-loop is running from the first found instance to the last found one.
If you go through all the found instances from back to forth would be one solution.
var myDoc=app.documents.item(0)
var myLib=app.libraries.item(0)
app.findGrepPreferences=null;
app.changeGrepPreferences=null;
app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeFootnotes=false;
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle="TX"
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat=".+\\r"
var myFinds=myDoc.findGrep()
for(i=myFinds.length-1; i>=0; i--)
var myIcon=myLib.assets.item("Para").placeAsset(myFinds[i].insertionPoints[0])[0]
myIcon.appliedObjectStyle=myDoc.objectStyles.item("Para No")
Another one would be doing the search from back to forth and not changing the for-loop:
var myFinds=myDoc.findGrep(true);
Array of Text findGrep ([reverseOrder: bool])
Finds text that matches the find what value.

how can i fix this?
Can you guys explain with procedure?The problem is that you have a form at the bottom of the page that has a field set to 'autofocus'. Meaning that when the page loads it will automatically put the cursor in that box and of course to do so it will have to scroll down to it.
You need to remove the auto focus from that form field or move the form to the top of the page.
