How can I see what I'm actually video recording on iPad Air so that I don't include extra stuff at the borders of the image? It seems to automatically "zoom in" on the screen, but when I export the video, the picture isn't framed well.

When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.

Hi MyAppleID99,
You may want to check to make sure the clip hasn't been moved back and forth between wide screen and standard aspect ratios; sometimes a combination of letterboxing and pillarboxing can lead to a black frame "windowbox" when playing the final video. You may find the following article helpful:

How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some from my iPad mini

You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data. Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too. (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

How can i see what is in my trash on my macbook air?

I want to see what is in my trash before I empty it, but I cant see anything when i click on the icon, it is like a screen is covering the contents.

It is a really BAD idea to move items from the Applications or Applications -> Utilities folders to your desktop or any other folder, and as John Galt says, it should have been in your Applications -> Utilities folder.
If you want a fast access to such an app, create an Alias and put that Alias anywhere you iike (Finder -> File -> Make Alias). Make several aliases of the app if you want it in multiple location, just do not move the original.
When Apple standard programs and utilities are not in their expected locations several bad things can happen.
After an update/upgrade you might get a newer copy in the official location, but keep using the old version because you keep clicking on your desktop copy, and then wonder why it is not working correctly with the updated/upgraded Mac software.
Some functions may fail, if some other app that expects to be able to launch the standard app cannot find it in the standard location.
If it is an essentail utility you may be even brick your Mac, turning it into a door stop.
Pleaes uses Aliases and do not move things our of their Applications or Applications -> Utilities locations.

They can provided you remove them from the Exclude list. Normally, Time Machine does not automatically backup external drives.

The "playhead indicator" is a twofold tool. Click on the "clock" icon and it switches to Project Length:
You can click and drag on the time clock to increase the project length if you need to see what's going on beyond your Play Range.
The image below is an overview of parts. The Timeline view is opened to reveal layer timing.
The "mini timeline" (the bar under the canvas above the clock) shows the entire project length. Usually that's the same length as the default Play Range. Use the play head clock to add more time if you need to reveal longer media "tails". You will not change the Play Range by doing so (you'll have to do that "manually"). You can even Share/Export your project with respect to Play Range as opposed to Project Length (there's a drop down option for that upon export.)
If you're creating a template, FCPX only "sees" the play range.
It's not a cool one-click option... it's just the way it is in Motion.

1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how would I edit the data that is on it?
2) I am having problems with an app syncing data with pc - how can I fix that? It is mobile noter.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

How can you see what the WLC ACL is denying?

How can you see what the acl on our WLC5508 is denying? The counter keeps on going up but what is getting blocked is nowhere to be seen.

You are right but you can monitor that through the hits counts on the (WLC)Security->Access crontrol list === Hits
It will give you some idea for trouble shooting also you have the cmd line for details analysis.

How can I see what has been backed up

After doing a category BU to my WD Passport Ultra, how can I see what was backed up? The Smartware tells me that what I selected was done.But how and where can I confirm this? Thanksgrowlybear

Simplest way is to open the drive in Windows Explorer, then in the root you should find a folder WD Smartware.stor. Within that should be a folder for each device you've backed up, and within that a folder for each drive on that device that you've backed up. Within those drive folders you should find the files/folders that have been backed up from that particular drive. You can look through them in the same way that you look through the files/folders on your actual drive itself, and confirm that everything is there that you expect to be.

How can I see what is on my cloud? Also, I keep getting asked to manage storage when I am watching videos that I have bought through the store. I have bought lots of cloud space only half of which is used. Is my device too full of pictures or videos and how do I know if they are on the cloud or stored on the I tunes store where I bought them from?

How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

How can I see what file's are in a directory

I'm want to make a program for brosing the harddisk and copying and editing file's.
I already can copy them but:
How can I see what file's are in a directory and how can I see
what subdirectory's are in a directory so I can show them to the user?
I dont't know if it does matter if If I'm on a windows or linux platform, when it does please tell me for the windows?

I believe this works for a directory of reasonable size.
import java.io.File;
final public class FileSearch {
    public File current;
    public String path;
    public File[] files;
    public FileSearch(File dir){
       try {
          current = dir;
          files = dir.listFiles();
       } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
    public void currentSearch() {
       for (int i=0; i<files.length; i++) {
          if (files.isFile()) {
System.out.println(files[i].toString());
public void searchFiles(){
for (int i=0; i<files.length; i++) {
if (files[i].isDirectory()) {
System.out.println();
System.out.print("directory: ");
System.out.println(files[i].toString());
try {
FileSearch sub = new FileSearch(files[i]);
sub.currentSearch();
sub.searchFiles();
sub= null;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
FileSearch search = new FileSearch(new File("."));
search.currentSearch();
search.searchFiles();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
