How do I get the DVD menu to come on when the disc is inserted.

Each time I've burned a DVD with iDVD, instead of the menu coming up when the disc is inserted in the DVD player, the movie begins playing automatically. It should bring up the menu first. I have the chapter marker set at the beginning of the movie and when you go to the menu and select the start button it will go to the start of the movie. Am I missing something? How do I get it so that the movie does not start playing automatically?

Hi
Am I missing something?
Yes
I guess that You don't
• Share to Media Browser and as Large or Medium (or just save project - in old iMovie HD6)
- But Share to iDVD - I never do this
• Make's a One Step DVD or a Magical DVD - I never do - I select the top one options.
as these ways will end up Your Movie in the Auto-Start box in iDVD (turn on box-view under the Menu window)
• Move it from here to the next box to the Right
THEN
File to Save as a DiskImage - and test this to play OK (DVD-Player tool)
then burn this via Disk Util tool
And this Disk should start with Menu and let You select Movie or Sceen Selection.
Yours Bengt W

How do i get an itunes library from a phone when the computer has crashed and it needs to go on a new computer

How do i get an itunes library from a phone when the computer has crashed and it needs to go on a new computer

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

How do I get rid of xml tags but not when the tag has copyright in it?

I tried this but it does not seem to do anything:
temp_string=temp_string.replaceAll("\\<.*?(!copyright)\\>", "");An example of this is that if I have: <meta name ="copyright" > I do not want to get rid of the tag. In other words, I do not want to get rid of any tags that have the word "copyright" in them, but I want to get rid of all other tags.

Also if I want to include license as well do I just do: str = str.replaceAll("<(?![^<>]*(copyright|license))[^<>]*>", ""); Is that correct?Yes, you can do the same thing with all three regexes. Now, explanations:
"<(?![^<>]*copyright)[^<>]*>" This regex does one lookahead, scanning forward for the word "copyright" before beginning the actual match. It's a negative lookahead, so if the word is seen, the lookahead fails and so does the overall match. If the lookahead succeeds, the match position is returned to where the lookahead started and the real matching begins.
A naïve approach would use ".*" or ".*?" in the lookahead, but then it would be free to scan past the end of the tag and find the word in the next tag or halfway through the document; lookaheads are slippery that way. But I used "[<>]*", so once it reaches the closing ">" it stops scanning.
That means, for every successful match the regex scans the whole tag twice--once for the lookahead and once "for reals". That won't be a problem in most cases, but if you're matching many large chunks of text, performance could suffer. Each of the other regexes only traverses the tag once. "<(?:(?!copyright)[^<>])*>" This one steps through the text one character at a time, at each position doing a negative lookahead before matching the character. That sounds like a lot of work, but in the vast majority of cases the lookahead will only have to look at one character before yielding.
"<(?:(?!copyright|[<>]).)*>" This is basically the same as the second regex, but it does all the real work in the lookahead. I don't recommend it; it's less readable and probably less efficient than the second regex. But both the second and third regexes can be made more efficient by using [possessive quantifiers|http://www.regular-expressions.info/possessive.html] (that whole site is highly recommended, by the way): "<(?:(?!copyright)[^<>])*+>", "");
"<(?:(?!copyright|[<>]).)*+>" The first regex can use a possessive quantifier, too, but not in the lookahead: "<(?![^<>]*copyright)[^<>]*+>"

How do I get just my icon to come up when I log in?

I bought this macbook pro used. It is running on lion. I wanted to change my user name so I made a new user and deleted the old one. Now when I log in, it shows my user and guest. I just want it to show mine so all I need to do is type the password and click return. How do I get rid of the guest user? Here is the problem. It isn't a normal guest user that can get onto the desktop. It is one that logs directly onto safari. It is a web user. When I go to system preferences, it says that the guest user is disabled. Is there any way to get rid of the icon when I get to the log in screen?

It is a very valuable "Find My Mac" security feature.
It is not wise to remove it.

The procedure to remove is described in this article.

How do I get a better dictionary to come up when I look up words?

On my iPhone 4 when I look up a word it only shows a bare minimum definition. Is there a way to get it to look up a more thorough defintion? Is there some app that will link the look up to a better dictioary?
Thanks

No.
I read books that I borrow from the library. The library told me to get an app called OverDrive that I read the books on. As I was fiddling with it just now I see it's better than I thought - it links directly to Wikipeadia with one click so that's not bad.
I use the notes app that came with the phone a lot and just for the heck of it I looked up a word on a note I'd written. The dictionary that comes up from that app is totally different than the dictionary that comes up from the OverDrive app.
I gues different apps access different dictionaries.

How can I make it so when they click the link my entire site comes up. even if the search they did just lists one of my pages? Help... Thanks

Are you using FRAMES?
If not, you need to post a link to your site.

You must create the ringtones. google will find several free ways to do this.
It will then appear in the "Ringtones" section of your itunes "Library".
Then you select it to sync under the ringtones tab.

Quit Disk Utility and install OS X. Install the applications that came with the MBP from the Applications DVD.

I would like to create chapters within my footage for Scene selection on the DVD menu

I have edited footage using FCPX and exported it to allow me to use it in IDVD. I now would like to set chapter markers so that the DVD menues allow for scene selection. I believe that I may have to do this in FCPX before exporting it
Can you tell me how to do it.
Thank you

This is one of the most embarrassing omissions in FCP X. There is no proper facility to add chapter markers and export them with your movie.
The way I get around it is to make each chapter a separate project in its own right. I then export each of the chapters and when I bring them into my DVD Authoring application, it's a synch to add the chapter markers (between each file on the timeline) with precision.
As you've already created your project (presumably in one hit) create a new project for each chapter then copy and paste the relevant clips into each 'chapter' project, then export.
Alternatively, you can add chapter markers from within the preview window in Compressor if you have it - but it's quite fiddley and not very precise.

Jumping back to the dvd menu after video ends.

Helloooo, I have Dvd Studio Pro 3.0.2.
1. When my movie/video ends it just goes to a black screen. How do I make it so it goes back to the start of the dvd menu?
I know I have to use a script or something its just how do I go about it. Is there any step by step instructions anywhere on the net for this type of thing. I have tried the dvd studio pro help and can't seem to find what i am after.
2. Also I have TWO MENUS and the first menu is like the intro, and the second is the actual menu where you play movie etc...
Can I make it so when the first menu is done playing the intro it goes to the second menu. Cause there is no timeline for the menu. I just want an intro and then the menu!
Cheers

This is the help stuff in the DVD STUDIO PRO saying about the JUMP thingy for the scripts.
I have applied it and nothing happens.
I know you have to put the JUMP command and then where you want to go. (Main Menu)
Nothing happens I have tried for hours to try and get it and it doesn't go back when i use the simulator.
1 Create a script and select it.
2 Enter Ocean End as the script’s name.
Note: Enter Beach End and Trail End as the names when creating the scripts for
the other two tracks.
3 In the Script Editor, select the first command line (Nop).
4 In the Script Command Inspector, choose Jump as the command.
5 To configure the jump command, choose Tracks and Stories > Beach > Marker 1 from
the Jump To pop-up menu.
Note: Choose Tracks and Stories > Trail > Marker 1 and Tracks and Stories > Shopping >
Marker 1 when creating the scripts for the other two tracks.
6 Add a compare function to the jump command to test to see if a Play All function is
in process.
• Select the Compare Command checkbox.
• Choose GPRM 0 as the “Execute if” element to be compared to.
• Choose equal (=) as the “is” compare operation type.
• Choose Immediate as the “to” element type to compare.
• Enter 1 as the “with value.”
If GPRM 0 has a 1 in it (indicating the Play All function is in progress), this jump
command occurs. If not, the script moves to the next command line.
7 In the Script Editor, click the Add button.
The next command line (Nop) is added to the script.
8 In the Script Command Inspector, choose Jump as the command.
9 To configure the jump command, choose Menus > Main Menu > Button 1 from the
Jump To pop-up menu.
All I am guessing is that how does it know when the movie finishes. I am just putting in a jump command in. like it seems i have to do something else.
Help me please!!!!

How do i get a dvd on to my iphone

how do i get a dvd on to my iphone

What media was it recorded on? If it's a VHS tape, look into a "capture card" like the Dazzle series. If you recorded on DVD, use Handbrake or a similar program to compress it into an mpeg4 or other video file compatible with iTunes.
I feel like you may enjoy this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_ZFFy1fCrU replace Guitar hero and iPod with DVD and iPhone.

How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

DVD Menu only shows up after the movie?!?!

Hey guys
I'm new to IDVD!
I made a slideshow on Imovie and I hit share it to IDVD, i think pick a menu and hit burn. But when I play the movie in my DVD player, the movie starts right up and then it's not until after the movie is done playing that the DVD Menu comes up.
What am I doing wrong? How do I fix this!?!?
Thanks!!!

You have inadvertently created what is called an "autoplay" slideshow. That type operates exactly as you described.
You must have dragged you slideshow into the Project icon in Map View. To activate Map View, you click on the left-most of the three icons in the center below the iDVD window. The Project icon is the icon on the top in the Map View. . It states within that icon "Drag content here to automatically play ..."
So, you need to either drag your project from there down to the lower box, or re-do your project by dragging it into the main project area on the theme's main screen. Just do not move it into the Project icon in Map View.
