How do I set my Region Code for the DVD player?

When I insert a DVD, it is not prompting me to set the region code and I cannot figure out how to set it manually. When I insert a DVD, I get an error message that says "supported disk not availabe". I have already run the Repair Disk Permissions from disk utility and that didn't work so I thought maybe the problem is with the region coding. Your help is appreciated!! Thanks.

How to Find unused programs / T-codes for the past three months

How to find the unused programs / transaction codes for the past three months,
I tried with the ST03 Transaction but it gives only the Tcodes, program used in last one monthu2026
Regards,
Purshoth

This depends on the data retention time (in days) maintained in your system. In ST03, on the right hand side, check "Collector" tab, under that "Performance Database" and then "Reorganization" which will give you the details retention times (in days).

How do I set a recurring event for the last day of the month on iphone 4s calendar?

I want to set a recurring event for the last day of every month - regardless of the date/number of days in the month. I'd prefer not to have to use an app to do this.

Hi,
You can do this using the custom repeat in iCal. You'll need two events to cover the second and fourth Mondays.
Create the event on the second Monday of the month. In Repeat select Custom... > Frequency: Monthly > On the: second Monday.
Do the same for the Fourth Monday.
Best wishes

How to burn and finalize a dvd for the dvd player?

I just upgraded to Lion on my MacBook Pro. I burned a dvd from a torrent through the Mac's own disk utility. I didn't see anywhere that it finalized it. It did say it verified it. Is this the same thing? I am trying to play this dvd with is DVD+R on the dvd player but it says it cannot be played. I tried formatting it to a mpeg4. The dvd player is a Panasonic, which is a few years old (model called Double Feature).
Please use lay turns so I can understand. I am not that tecchie.
Here are my three questions:
1: Am I using the right kind of dvd to record it with?
2: What format should I be using? In am in the California region of the US. I don't know if I should be using PAL or NTSC. I Googled it but I am still confused as it says to check your region. Is there a universal format?
3: How do I finalize a dvd burn when I burned it from the Mac not using a third party application? I used the Mac's own burn capabilities.
Your answers and advise would be greatly appreciated.

There is free open source software called Burn that will burn DVDs. Here is a link.
If you wish to pay for software, there are many, including TOAST TITANIUM from Roxio. Apple's retail copy of iLife 11, and Apple's Compressor.
Of these, I would say that iDVD is known for being able to create very professional looking DVDs with intros, menus, lots of interesting templates.
Toast is much simpler and the menus and templates are more plain.
Compressor is a professional tool that does a lot more than make DVDs. Don't expect much in the way of menus or templates.
Burn, I have never tried, since I have iDVD and Toast for those ocasions when I need to burn a DVD. However, since it is free, I think it is worth a try.
Each software package is a little different, but in general, in iMovie, you can use the SHARE menu to SHARE/MOVIE in Large size. Save the movie to your desktop or someplace you can easily find it. Then drag it into the tool of your choice. You can alsouse SHARE/MEDIA BROWSER/LARGE if you have iDVD or Toast.

How do I set up cellular account for the New iPad?

I have an ipad2 and have an existing 3G account with AT&T. I want to keep this account as I plan to keep the iPad2. When I received my New iPad today I set it up from a backup of th iPad2 on the iCloud. Therefore it now has the cellular account data for the 3G associated with the iPad 2. How do I set up a separate 4G LTE which will only be used by the New iPad (iPad3). Thanks for any help.

I don't see how to "log out" once I have gone to settings/cellular data. Thanks

How do I set a noise print for the entire track? (Back to Basics)

Ok. I've only worked in STP with single audio clips. Now, I'm trying to adjust audio inside a Multi-Track project sent from FCP... and it's a little different. At least to a guy like me.
I'm struggling with the most basic issue, and that's possibly why I can't find an answer to it.
Simply, "How do I go about setting a noise print for an entire track?" I've done this for a single audio clip, but now that I'm in a slightly different environment my old ways don't work. I've looked through video tutorials hoping to find something but no luck.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
JS

With the audio opened in SoundTrack Pro, select (highlight) a small portion that only contains the noise that you want to reduce. Sample that section. then select the entire audio clip and use the Noise Reduction tools to reduce the noise that you sampled earlier.

How do I set a NULL value for the parameter field

Hi
I've another question. I'm going to set single values for parameter fields.
// e.g. set today for StartDate parameter field
fc.setCurrentValue("", "StartDate", new Date());
It should be possible to set a NULL value for date parameter fields.
fc.setCurrentValue("", "StartDate", (Date)null);
But this do not work. How do I set a NULL value correctly?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Thomas

First question - is it a stored procedure parameter?
You can't set a regular parameter field value to a null value.
There was an issue with old version of the JRC, where it was allowing null to go through, but had unexpected behavior at times.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

How do I change the country code on the DVD player?

DVD Player: About DVD-Video Regions
Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

How do I use iMac as monitor for external DVD player (HDMI to Mini DisplayPort)

iMac 27" (late 2009). Internal DVD is region locked. I would like to use an external DVD player to watch DVD's from other regions.
I can't use the new Apple SuperDrive because they say it's not compatible with iMac's before 2012. (Is it??)
My iMac doesn't have Thunderbolt. It has mini displayport.
I have resigned to getting a generic DVD player and plugging it into the screen.
I have found this in Apple support pages...
Can I use the iMac in TDM as a display for my gaming console, DVD player, or other device?
The Mini DisplayPort port on a supported iMac can receive DisplayPort compliant video and audio signals. Converters not made by Apple may provide options to convert other electrical, video, and audio protocols to Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt compliant signals.
( http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924 )
What is DisplayPort compliant video and audio signals? Does HDMI fit into that signal type?
Is it possible to get an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort converter?
Will it work if I get a generic DVD player with HDMI output? (and connect it to the iMac through MiniDisplayPort)

First try VLC.
<http://www.videolan.org>
On many Macs, it will play DVDs even if the region codes don't match.
The Apple SuperDrive should work if you use the terminal (Utilities foldsr) command:
sudo nvram boot-args="mbasd=1"
There are also non-Apple USB or FireWire external DVD (and Blu-ray) drives, such as:
<http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/optical-drives/superdrives/>
Apple's DVD player may not work with external drives, but you can use VLC or Blu-ray™ Player
<http://www.macblurayplayer.com>
There is a converter to connect HDMI to the iMac via TDM
<http://www.kanexlive.com/xd>
but it will run at 720p (1280 x 720) and may have problems with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) on HDMI from Blu-ray or DVD players.

Region code change on DVD Player ...

hI
please help ,I have changed the drive region code 5 more times,so now it doesnt plays any dvds, how can i reset it,or what i can do?
thanks

This is right from the Terms of Use: Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
DVD region coding is a form of DRM, and as such, we can't discuss "working around" it here.
Again I say: Google is your friend. A very good friend.

How do I set one monitor calibration for the whole system and users?

I'm really angry because when I logged into my first default account, My settings where normal, but I logged into my alt account, the settings where all messed up (NO ONE TOUCHED MY COMPUTER, AND THE ACCOUNT HAS A STRONG PASSWORD) The white balance was that slightly blue one. So, I changed it, and logged in to the alt account again to see it was okay. I want to my main account and used screenlock, and noticed on the login screen (I logged out of the account after I saw to see this same thing) it was the light bluer white balance. So I logged in and calibrated AGAIN and it finally when back to the default on the login screen (2:2 or something and native white balance) and my preferences for my accounts (television gamma, and native white balance) I just want it system wide to be:
-2:2 TELEVISION GAMMA
-Native White Gamma
Or at-least the login screen, and my two accounts, and that settings to be the system wide default.

Thanks for helping me make it worse.
First off, if you want help, act like an adult. We're all just other users you're talking to, not Apple employees. Such angry behavior will only ensure that no one will respond to any questions by you in the future.
Second, there's nothing wrong with Kappy's advice. The /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder is accessible by all user accounts. So putting one common monitor profile there and setting it in each account is what you want to do.
What you're seeing is a known issue when switching users without restarting. I don't know if there's ever been a true solution for it.
