How can I put content on the AppleTV and have it STAY there??

I want to put movies on the AppleTV and delete them from my computer. I want the movies to be persistently on the AppleTV How do I do that?

Most important thing to realise is that AppleTV cannot be regarded as a storage or backup device - once content is on AppleTv you cannot get it back to your computer.
Assuming you have a backup copy of a movie elsewhere in case your AppleTV fails or needs a factory restore you could either:
- Show the files location using a right click on it in iTunes and delete it from the laptop drive directly but not delete the entry from iTunes. (Not ideal but apparently works)
- Keep larger files on an external drive and change iTunes Preferences not to import to the main library - when the drive is connected you will be able to add new entries to iTunes and synce them. When disconnected iTunes won't delete them from AppleTV as again there's still an entry in the library, just that the file isn't available.
These are workarounds - it's a shame you can't just drag and drop media to AppleTV manually rather than having to sync things.

How do I delete photos in the icloud and have them stay gone?

How do I delete photos in the icloud and have them stay gone!

The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

How can I put asterisk in the beginning and end of a search parameter..?

Hi!
I'm developing a program for a user where he wants a search parameter for the description about some purchase orders....
The problem is if the user want to make a search for any word he need to put asterisk in the beginning and end of the word because if the user don't put the asterisk the search will not find anything because the program don't know if the word is in the beginning of the description or in the end or in the middle...
How can I put one asterisk in the beginning and end of the search topic entered by the user internally in the program..? I was thinking using the concatenate function but for this will not work because the program think that the asterisk is part of the word and not..
The search parameter of the Description is in range.. (Select-Options).
Thanks for your help!!

Thanks keshav!
OK... and if I concatenate the asterisk latter I can make this search?
In the code desc_search is the select_option that I tell u. I use the DESCRIBE to see first if it is not initial... if desc_search have an entry then access the DELETE to remove all the records that are diferent from desc_search.. This desc_search will have the word with the asterisk... and the question is if it works if I use the concatenate before this... anyway I will try but I think that if I use the concatenate the program confuse and take the asterisk as part of the word..
DESCRIBE TABLE desc_search LINES desc_count.
IF desc_count IS NOT INITIAL.
DELETE core_table WHERE desc NOT IN desc_search.
ENDIF.
Let u know if works!!
Thanks!

How can I put favicons on the bookmarks bar?

I am used to seeing favicons next to my bookmarks--in fact, I have several that have favicons only (such as Google Reader, ESPN). Can this happen with Safari (Windows)? After favicons, seeing all text bookmarks on the bookmarks bar is so 2000s.
Sorry if this is the wrong category; I didn't see a Windows Safari version forum.

*How Can I Put Lyrics On The Songs In The iPod Touch?!
Read the response by Jim VanLeeuwen, but I might add a few comments:
(a) Lyrics on the Touch are only supported if you have firmware 2.0 or later.
(b) If you auto-sync your iPod, the changes you make to your library will be copied over to the Touch on your next sync. But if you manually manage the Touch I believe that you will need to delete the revised songs from the Touch and drag the new copies over. Although you can add lyrics directly to the songs that are on the Touch (if you manually manage) it is better to edit your library and replace the updated songs on the Touch. That way in case your Touch ever gets corrupted and you have to delete everything, you won't lose the lyrics (or any other tag changes you made directly on the Touch).

Having arranged some scanned pictures in an album in I-Photo how can I keep them in the order I have chosen when I move the album. They all have the scan date and not the taken date and move to new positions if I move them from one album to another.

Having arranged some scanned pictures in an album in I-Photo how can I keep them in the order I have chosen when I move the album. They all have the scan date and not the taken date and move to new positions if I move them from one album to another.
Is there any way to re-number them in the order I have chosen so that they can then be sorted by number? The scans are all from pre-digital images that I wish to move to a photobook and I don't want to have to organise them twice!
Thanks for any suggestions.

I was a bit short, Chris, sorry. It is limited, what can be posted, when typing on an iPad.
Now I am back on my Mac. I meant the following: Batch Change the date for a large range of photos, that should have a date stepped in increments.
Select all Photos at once and use the command "Photos > Batch Change".
Then set the date for the first photo and select an increment, e.g. one minute.
Now all photos will get a new date assigned, incremented by one minute, in the sequence you have selected. So you will be able to sort them by date. This way it will be unnecessary to change the titles or filenames.

I have an iPhone 3G, an iPhone 3GS, and a MacBook on one macmail and mobile me account. How can I keep mail on the MacBook and iPhone 3 private from the iPhone 3GS?

Pretty much. I don't understand why you need to worry about MobileMe, though. I'd guess the vast majority of us with iDevices don't have MobileMe accounts at all. That's pretty much why it failed.

Are you SURE you need to reinstall? Often people believe this but it rarely solves anything. Does a message say you must?

From your backups. By doing a clean install you erased your startup volume. You may have installed OS X, but your personal software was erased. You can restore from backups if your have them. If not, then you've lost it all, permanently.

How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT

Hi gurus,
How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT, please step by step, i m in the key figure 0UNIT but i want to see if the UNIT for example BX = BOX, something like this is that i want to check, thanks!

If you look at the unit tables, you will see the values and texts. It's in SPRO, not in RSA1. My access is limited on my system here, but the documentation says to go to t-code CUNI. I believe in that tcode you can look at all of the unit equivalencies and what each unit's text is ..... like an ea means each; KG = Kilogram; etc...
I am on an 3.x system, so in SPRO I go to BW CIG=>General Settings=>Check units of measurement.

How do I put timecode on the storyline. In FCP 7 there was a time code reader that read the actual TC on the source material. There isn't one in FCP 10.1...Any recommendations???

TC has not been lost...skimmer shows source TC.
Nanoflash external recorder via SDI on a Sony PMW-EX3.
Ok so Compressor will show source TC on an individual clip, good I didn't know this and it will be helpful.
My scenario. I build a timeline with a whole days shooting involving many different clips and build a Sequence from that-editing out the off camera questions/mistakes etc. In the past I would export with source TC with a Timecode Reader filter applied. Now, it is a TC Generator filter that is available that starts from 00:00.
1. Possible solution, forget the source TC since I have a timeline built with (counter) TC on it and send that to client or get Apple to add it in the future.
2. Apply TC Generator on a clip by clip basis and manually change the TC to match source material. Probably too, much effort though.

I've done some research on the SQLite database. Whenever Aperture hangs up (like during auto-stack or opening the filter hud) there are thousands of SQLite queries happening. These SQLite queries cause massive file I/O because the database is stored on the disk as 1kb pages. However, the OS is caching the database file; mine's only 12MB. I'm trying to track down some performance numbers for SQLite on osx but having trouble.
It's starting to look like most of the speed problems are in the libraries that Aperture uses instead of the actual Aperture code. Of course, that doesn't completely let the developers off the hook since they choose to use them in the first place.
Oh, and if anyone is curious, the database is completely open to queries using the command line sqlite3 tool. Here's the language reference http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html
Hmm, just found this. Looks like someone else has been playing around in the db http://www.majid.info/mylos/stories/2005/12/01/apertureInternals.html
