How can I turn subtitles on & off when playing an MP4 file?

I bought an iPad Air two days ago and I am a total newcomer to the Apple community. Some of my Blu-ray and DVD collection has been ripped to MKV files and I have used Handbrake on my PC to create iPad-optimised MP4 conversions of some of these files. On one of these conversions I included an English subtitle track set as the default. On another, I also included an English subtitle track but did not click the Default option in Handbrake.
Both these MP4 files have now been transferred to my iPad via iTunes. I can play these videos but I cannot find a way to suppress the default subtitles in one case or turn on the non-default subtitles in the other case. I have tried both the standard iPad 'Videos' app and the latest iPad version of VLC but cannot find an on/off switch for subtitles in either app. Am I missing something or do I need a different app?
BTW, I was surprised to find that loading an MP4 file into my iPad's 'Films' library made it visible to the Videos app but not to VLC. A second copy of each video had to be transferred to the iPad specifically for the use of VLC, which seems like a pointless waste of the limited space on my 64GB iPad. Is this normal or have I misunderstood something?

I think I figured it out.
Thanks anyway. p

It's really annoying when i try to add anything to the middle of sentences it erases the preceding letter.
I can't find the key on my keyboard and can't find it in keyboard settings either.
Thank you

Hi
Do you use MS Word?
If yes, then you should disable the overtype function. You can see it marked as OVR.
Double click on this shortcut and you will be able to disable this.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Thanks varjak paw.
I was afraid this was the case. To the degree that Apple marches down this well-travelled road towards making money by trying to pound customers into submission with flashing ads, etc. that actually serve only to aggravate and drive away at least people like me (28 year user of macs) from both Apple and whatever is being advertised, and indeed get in the way of my being able to efficiently do what is my part of what I always thought was the core of the synergism between Apple and its customers -- them innovating to provide the best tools to help us to be creative and productive, then the company will find itself sharing that space with myriad other companies so bankrupt for ideas and innovation that they have no other possible strategy that to promote mindless consumerism. That does not seem a place of strength for Apple and a complete forfeiting of its unique position. Sad to watch.

N80 Restarting "WSOD" when playing large mp4 files

I love Anime's so I'm converting my "RMVB" or "AVI" video files from my pc to "MP4" so that i can watch in my N80.
here is the setting when i convert the files to MP4:
Video
-resolution is "352x288 (CIF)"
-frame rate(FPS) is set to "auto"
-Bit rate is set to "512"
Audio
-im just setting it to "mono" and "128kbps"
file size: is almost 110mb
there are two situation that i observed before the WSOD is happening:
1st situation:
when i try to play the mp4 file using "imaging folder---> realplayer".
2nd situation:
when i try to play the mp4 file using "gallery--> images and videos".
both situation makes my n80 restart A.K.A "WSOD" but the difference is it is restarting more often when im using the 1st situation that i couldnt enjoy what im watching.
In the 2nd situation i can play up to two 30 mins MP4 videos and then on the 3rd video usually WSOD will appear.
can someone tell me why this is happening? And this is only happening when im watching Video. Is this a firmware bug? pls help
By the way i have the latest firmware for my n80IE
V5.0719.0.2
24-05-2007
RM-92
Nokia N80(12)
thanks in advance

hi scoobyman
actually i already read that thread, and my settings are correct except for the "bitrate"... he said that the maximum recommended bitrate is "350 kbps"
my setting for bitrate is "512kbps"
i think that 512kbps is still ok in n80, because when i try to look at the properties of the "recorded video" of my n80. here are the properties:
(ORIGINAL PROPERTIES OF RECORDED VIDEO ON N80)
video
-Bitrate is 574kbps
-format mpeg4
-size/resolution 352x288
-frame rate is 15 fps
sound
-format mpeg4aac
-bitrate 0kbps
-sample rate is 16000hz
-channel is mono
as you can see, the recorded video file of n80 has bitrate of 574kbps
here is my setting when im converting my PC file for my n80:
(MY SETTING IN CONVERTING FILES TO MP4)
video
-Bitrate is 512kbps
-format mpeg4
-size/resolution 352x288
-frame rate is 15 automatic
sound
-format mpeg4aac
-bitrate 128kbps
-sample rate is 44100hz
-channel is mono
i dont exactly know if theres a problem in my sound setting but i think the video
settings are correct. and also according to el_loco
"Audio: NB-AMR, WB-AMR or MPEG4 audio in mono or stereo, up to 128 kbps @ 44.1 KHz.
Sample rate."
that makes my sound setting also correct.
i dont really know why this is happening, im suspecting 3 things here:
-a bug in firmware
-version of realplayer
-or the converted file itself
if its the converted file can you please recommend a good video converter for nokia.
thanks =)Message Edited by wicked on 05-Jul-200703:22 PM

How do you turn Magic Trackpad off when shutting down?

Hi folks--
I just got a Magic Trackpad and I am learning to use it on a Mac Mini 2.0 Mid 2007, My question is; how does one turn it off, as I shut down my computer every night. I have seen that I could turn "off" Bluetooth before shutting down. I have tried the on/off switch on the Trackpad, but it seems to always stay On. Does it matter? I am concerned about battery life.

On the right side of your track pad is the switch. When you press and release the switch it will turn on, to turn off, press and hold the button until the green light goes out then release.
If you use rechargeable batteries you can just let the track pad go into sleep mode which is what I do. With Alkaline I would turn it off and make sure to take them out if you don't plan to use the track pad for an extended period. Alkaline batteries are prone to leaking once fully discharged.

How can I turn ALL notifications off at once?

Before upgrading to iOS5, I could turn off ALL notifications with ONE swipe and all back on with one swipe... I do that when I go to sleep, because otherwise, my phone lighting up over & over wakes me up somestimes... and I don't want to be awakened by notifications. But when I am awake, I want the notifications.
But it looks like with the new iOS5, you have to turn EACH one off individually... then turn them all back on individually. PLEASE someone tell me I'm wrong, that I'm missing something somewhere. That is a MAJOR HASSLE!!!! There HAS to be a way to turn ALL notifications off and back on in ONE step... PLEASE!
If not, HOW can we BEG Apple to FIX this horrible mistake? Because if this feature is gone, that's a MASSIVE error on Apple's part!! WHY they would remove that option is beyond stupid! So I really hope someone can tell me I'm missing something... I've searched and checked all over, but I don't see any way to turn ALL off at once, then turn ALL back on at once. I don't want to spend 10-15 mins each night turning each one off... then 10-15 mins turning each one back on one at a time. Major pain!
So PLEASE tell me how to do this... or PLEASE Apple fix this!!

Yeah, it's even worse than I thought. I first turned off the Notification center on each app... STILL got notifications. So then I changed the alert style to "NONE" instead of alerts or banners. And last night I STILL got notifications!! OMG how difficult is it to turn these things off??? So now I ALSO turned off "Badge App Icon" figuring that MUST be it. Haven't gotten any yet, so I guess that's it.
But REALLY?? For EACH and EVERY app we have to do THREE STEPS??? Really SIX steps... 3 to turn off, and then 3 to turn back on!! ARE YOU KIDDING APPLE??
Whoever designed this part of the upgrade should be FIRED for being SO INSANELY STUPID!!! Why take something that was so simple and EASY to use and now make it more work, more difficult and all around ANNOYING!! This is the WORST thing about IOS5 so far for me... although with something this bad, I am sure there will be more bugs found! Guess I should have waited to upgrade! :-( But I thought your beta team would have figured out all the kinks & bugs BEFORE release! Guess not!
PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP and give us back a ONE step ON/OFF for ALL notifications!!!!!!!!!!!

How can i turn of the sound when you open a new tab?

What is happening since today:
Every time I open a new tab and it's done loading it gives a short "bloink" or whatever to call it.
How do I turn it off?
Thanks in advance for any tip you guys can give me.

That must be coming from the Windows operating system, as Firefox has one sound by default - for Type Ahead Find / Find As You Type.
Unless you have an extension installed that added that sound feature, check Sounds and Audio Devices in the Win 7 Control Panel.

How can you turn the screen off without access to the power button and without using auto-lock?

We are using iPads that are locked down with Guided Access and secured within hard plastic mounts screwed down onto a countertop. We can press the home button with a paperclip, but that's it. We don't want to use auto-lock because there might be several hours where the terminals aren't used, but we don't want them to go to sleep during business hours, otherwise we'll have to grab a paper clip and turn them back on. Also, if we set the auto-lock to several hours, then the iPads wouldn't be off for very long at night. I want to turn them off when we close at night, but it's challenging to open the cases and lift the iPads out, so that's not a reasonable option.
Any thoughts?

Look for a new case.
There is varying opinions where it is best to power down electronics overnight or leave them on all the time to lengthen the life of a device.
I power down to save electricity at night.

How can I turn the metronome off during playback on version 2.0.6 (iphone 5)?

The triangle-like icon allows me turn metronome on and off for recording, but I cannot get it to turn off during playback if I use it during recording. The Dial in the upper right allows me to turn off the "Count-In," and change the sound, but no option to turn off during playback. How do I fix this?

The triangle-like icon allows me turn metronome on and off for recording, but I cannot get it to turn off during playback if I use it during recording.
That should not be like this. Even if I enable the metronome during recording,I can turn it off again afterwards, before I start playback.

You know, one good way of putting people off helping you is to post multiple threads with your one problem in it. It's very silly and very tedious.
Have you checked the thousands of other threads that have discussed this same problem? That would probably be a better use of your time than what you are doing now.

How can I turn iTunes Match off without an internet connection?

Hi all. I find myself up s**t creek without a paddle. I have subscribed to iTunes Match, which I find to be an excellent service. However, I'm travelling (by ship) and don't have an internet connection for the forseeable future. I recently, prior to departing on my voyage, scrubbed my phone and ipad for extra space, so I deleted all of my music content, knowing my music would be with me on my laptop. However, now I want to walk around the ship and listen to my music, which I assumed I would be able to sync with my laptop. Unfortunately, I can't find any iTunes or iPhone options to sync any music because it says iTunes Match is enabled. There are no options to disable iTunes Match either. I'm using the latest version of iOS (5.1) on an iPhone 4S purchased in Japan, as well as the most recent (as of 4/1/2012) version of iTunes on my Macbook Pro running OS X Lion.
Thanks for any help someone might offer.

I was recently able to connect my iPhone to a Wi-Fi network connected to the internet. Only then did the option show up in the Settings app. I'm not sure if that's by design or if it's a bug, but it's terribly inconvenient just at the moment I need to access the feature. If it's by design, it's a poor design compared to most other aspects of iOS.

Every time I open Firefox or click on anything I get multiple and popping up. How can I turn these things off?
