How do you add special Characters???

Does anyone know how to add special characters like accents to words in pages '08???

There are several other threads that deal with this in detail.
On the Mac since almost day one, most of the accents are created by first typing option plus one of the vowels/consonants, followed by the vowel/consonants to which the accent is added. Some are direct alternatives, try them and see what they do.
eg
*Indirect accents*
option e plus e = é also á, é, í, ó, ú
option i plus e = ê also î, â, ô, û
option u plus e = ë, ï, ä, ü, ö
option n plus n = ñ
*Direct accents*
option a = å
option o plus e = ø
option c = ç
option s = ß (now obsoleted)
option w = ∑ (because it looks like a sideways w)
option f = ƒ
option t = †
option v = √ (square root character, which looks like a v)
etc
I have always marvelled at the common sense approach that Apple used compared with the way the Windows programmers did it.

How do you insert special characters with imovie 08?

How do you insert special characters into a project
with imovie 08?

Don't think that would work. Since my "system date" is already set at 2007. I have 2 imports, one has the year as 2048, and the other at 2016!! I don't know where they are getting these dates from, but they are not the system date.
Were the files imported directly from a camcorder or from files already on your hard drive? In the first case the year may have been taken from the time "stamp" recorded when the footage was shot (which may or may not have been correctly set by the user). On the other hand, files imported from the hard drive seem to be keyed to the date the imported file is written to the "Events" folder which, of course, reflects the current system time/date setting. That's why I said you had to then import (re-import) the files from a hard drive source -- i.e., to ensure the DTG would be re-written.

How Can I add special characters?

Hi,
How can I add specisl characters like arrows to the clips...
Thanks for help...

two options:
• add any Title, select a font containing 'arrows'
Hint: open System Prefs/Keyboard and check the box to show this icon in the menu bar:
You then easily select any arrow to your 'Title' ...
Unfortunately, there's no 'free to place anywhere on screen'-title
• Plan B)
follow advice about the 'transparent.png'-trick

How do I add special characters from my favorites to text?

I have the new version of Numbers 3.5. In previous versions if I wanted to add foreign language symbols to the text, I only had to click my mouse from the "special characters" and it was added to the word I was typing. Today I am not able to use my Spanish vocabulary because I cannot add the necessary symbols. How do I use this feature in my document text?

Input from the Character Viewer normally requires double-clicking or drag/drop.
The special characters needed for spanish are also available by just holding down the key for the base letter. If you hold down the n key, you should get a popup menu where you can choose ñ.
There are also option key shortcuts for such letters. Option n then n will give you ñ.

How to you enforce special characters under Authentication in the CMC?

Is there a way to to enfoce special characters in the password for user authentication? I do know BO XI R2 SP3 does allow special characters, but I would like to notify users when they get prompt to change their password.

Margaret,
Using the CMC, navigate to the entry entitled "Authentication", next choose the tab "Enterprise".
There are two key options (they appear towards the top), and here is a brief explanation of these:
When you enable the enforce mixed-case passwords option, then it ensures that passwords contain at least two of the following character classes: upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, or punctuation.
The second option, must contain at least (N) characters stipulates the minimum length that a user can choose for his or her password.
From a practical point of view, I would say that if you have the first option taken (enforce mixed-case), then your next option should be set at no lower than 8.
As far as educating the user, this is done externally from the web page when it presents to the user (the user gets three prompts: old password, new password, and re-type new password). As far as a clue to using at least two of the upper/lower/number/punctuation in their password, I don't know how you communicate that other than an internally circulated "Introduction to Our System" handout and you include this tidbit amongst other details you'd like your users to know, etc, etc.
Thanks,
John

How do you removing special characters from a string

hi,
i'm a novice to java, if you couldn't tell. i need to write a program to recognise palindromes (eg. madam etc.) but i can't work out how to strip or clean the input string of white space or punctuation. any help appreciated. by the way, any other ideas on how to go about it?? (i don't expect it to be done, just after guidance)
my thanks in advance

OK Here you are:
protected static String removeJunk(String string)
          int i, len = string.length();
          StringBuffer dest = new StringBuffer(len);
          char c;
          for (i = (len - 1); i >= 0; i--)
               c = string.charAt(i);
               if (Character.isLetterOrDigit(c))
                    dest.append(c);
          return dest.toString();

How to add special characters into numbers?

Hi, I wonder how can I add special characters like the one in the "Edit" menu for the Mac versions? Thanks.

It all depends what exactly you are talking about, so if you tell us, someone can help you. Some can be made from the keyboard, others you would need to copy/paste from an app like Unicode Map.

How to add special characters like üöä to a rss feed?

Hello,
I've (again) a small problem. In my podcast I use the header
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss version="2.0"
    xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
    xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/"
    xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
    xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
    xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/"
    xmlns:slash="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/"
    xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"
    xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/"
>
and encoding UFT-8. Every time I add special characters like the German Ö Ä or Ü to my feed, the feed stops working. The validator says that characters like üöä are no UTF-8 characters which is correct of course, but a second podcast which I listen to, uses the same header like I do but it contains the same special characters and it works. Does anyone know what the difference is?
This is my podcast feed which does not work with üöä
http://quartett.planeteternia.org/rssfeed.xml
That's a podcast feed (not mine) which works with üöä
http://technikwuerze.de/feed/
Thank you very much
Kind regards

http://quartett.planeteternia.org/newsfeed.xml - there is no file at this address. You have a feed at
http://quartett.planeteternia.org/rssfeed.xml
but there are no diacriticals in it - presumably you've removed them.
The other feed simply includes the diacriticals - it's not using html encoding to display them - so I don't know why you should be having trouble. You need to be writing the text in a plain text editor, not a word processor, and I don't know whether there is an issue with Windows here.
You could try using the codes - they must be the numbered not the named codes:
ü is ü
ö is ö
ä is ä

How do you add non-Garage band instruments into a Logic project so that you can hear them on playback?

How do you add non-Garage band instruments (orchestral instruments) into a Logic Pro (8) project so that you can hear those insrtruments' sounds on playback? I've tried to understand and follow the Logic Pro 8 User Manual, but the process comes off as so complex and the writing so technical that it does not help but only confuses.
To be precise - I want to add instruments (orchestral) that are not offered in the current Garage band menu which is offered in the Mixer's channel strip menus for Logic Pro 8. To be clear, the instruments that are offered are Bass / Drum Kits / Guitars / Mallets / Organs / Pianos and Keyboards / Synth Basics / Synth Leads / Synth Pads. Most of these that I've tried seem to work and give their characteristic sound when placed in a particular channel and playback is clicked.
However - there is one orchestra instrument offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Mixer channel menu and it's the item labelled "Performance - 000 flute 1 or 001 flute 1." And it is this instrument that presents a problem. When I click on it and choose it from the menu and enter it as the instrument of choice for a specfic channel / track in my Logic Pro project arrangement, when playing back the music for the overall piece this particular track, the flute, does not playback and produce the notes (Midi events) in the track in the sound of the flute. Instead, nothing comes out at all. I can't imagine why this does not work. Any ideas, anyone? Again, when choosing this instrument for a track and clicking the playback no flute sound is forthcoming. Why not? I have not tried them all, but when most of the other various types of keyboards, such as an electric piano or an organ, are chosen for a track the playback successfully renders the sound of these instruments. Why then does playback not produce the sound of the flute when it has clearly been chosen to play and sound the Midi events given it?
Anyway, the overall, larger issue for me is the inability I have to choose and get non-Garageband instruments (largely orchestral) to play the Midi events given on various tracks. If my guess is correct then technically, orchestral instruments not offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Garageband Mixer channel menu are referred to as external Midi sampled instruments - still, IMHO the process is not clearly spelled out in the User Manual. The simple step by step process whereby a non-Garage band instrument, say an orchestral instrument, is placed in a channel replete with Midi event (notes) waiting to be played should be easy, logical and given in a simple to follow format, but is not.
What with all the talk of routes, busses, auxillary channels, GM devices, GM mixers, audio bins, libraries and audio files this Logic Pro User is confused to the max. Can someone please help me and, in simple English, describe the step by step process whereby presumably external sampled orchestral instruments can be successfully employed, in any given Logic Pro arrangement project, to render their characteristic sounds upon playback?
On my two Macs, one a laptop and one a much larger Mac, I have any number of the GSO (Garritan Symphony Orceshtra) and Vienna Symphony Orchestra instrument library samples - and yet - I've yet to figure out how to actually get them INTO a Logic Pro project of any kind! To put this as a question, even as a humble request, how can I make good use of these orchestral sample libraries in a Logic Pro project? Can someone steer my to a clear resolution of this issue. I'd sincerely appreciate it! Thanks all!

David, you understand that this is professional software and is not necessarily meant to be easy but is in fact designed to give the professional user as many choices as possible, that's why it's in the Pro Apps section. You WILL need to learn about buses, GM Devices, Audio Bins, Libraries...etc..etc if you intend to use Logic.
That said, you are looking in the wrong place in the channel strip.
May I offer you advice?
Go here:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/
Open "Exploring Logic Pro" (a short PDF Document). Pay special attention to chapter 3. Also pay special attention to the included graphics of the channel strips.
I encourage you to read the whole document as it will clear up many things... even though it's a Logic 9 document.

How can I distinguish special characters or signs in Doc through VBA?

How can I distinguish special characters or signs in Doc through VBA?
I have a few large documents written in word 2003 format and now I work on them under word 2007.
Such large documents containing lots of special characters. I want to change them into Microsoft 3.0 equation form（It is required by the team). I find no way but using function AddOLEObject and Sendkeys through VBA. Common characters can be added
to equation by function Sendkeys, but the return value of Asc() or AscW() for "double arrow", "in" , " not greater than " such special characters or signs, to name but a few are the same ,i.e., 40 And I cannot distinguish them.
I found the link http://msdn.itags.org/word/44333/ may be of use to me, and the title is:
How to read symbols from a DOC documents! (Microsoft Word)
the original question is
Using function "InsertSymbol", I can insert a symbol into a document. But
how can I read a symbol from a document?
Using "Characters(i).range.text", I can read a char. But when meeting a
symbol, the value of "Characters(i).range.text" is always '('.How can I get the CharacterNumber of the symbol.
And the final answer is :
Hi chenfeng,
Word protects symbols from symbol fonts if you insert them from the "Insert
> Symbol" dialog.
This is done so they aren't changed when you change the font or style. But
it also results in Word reporting AscW( ) = 40 on all of them.
I've posted a macro to "unprotect" them (or to protect them again if you
want) ... just today again in

Hello James!
I do not have any ABAP Instance, only the JAVA one.
Therefore the ABAP transactions are quite useless.
The problem tables are created by people working on the CAF layer.

Anyone with any ideas?

How do you do it IMovie HD in Ilife 08?
Both applications can be run on the same computer. Use whichever application best serves your needs. If you need a lot of plug-in effects, use HD. If few or nor effects other than standard transitions and titles are required and speed is paramount, then use iMovie '08. If you like being innovative and want to try your hand at creating your own effects, use iMovie '08 and learn how perform pre- and post-edits to create your own fast motion, slow motion, stop motion, pseudo time lapse, still framed, backgrounded, blended, layered, picture-in-picture, etc. that may "tickle your fancy."

How Do You Add Multiple CSS Rules to Text?

Hi everyone, I have these css rules in my css styles window they are all assigned to some text in a cell on my page.
.Def14grey4 <body>
.def14grey4 a:link <a>
.def14grey4 a:visited <a>
.def14grey4 a:hover <a>
.def14grey4 a:active <a>
.def14grey4 a:focus <a>
How do you add (all of) these styles to the text in the first place, I know how to add the first one (.Def14grey4), you select the text in the cell and choose the rule from the drop-down menu in the css panel, but how do you add the other ones to some text as well, so that it can have the same link properties.
Basically I have some more text elsewhere on the page and want to assign these rules to that as well.
thanks Gareth

You would want to change your order as shown here -
.Def14grey4 <body>
.def14grey4 a:link <a>
.def14grey4 a:visited <a>
.def14grey4 a:hover, .def14grey4 a:focus <a>
.def14grey4 a:active <a>
That way, the hover and the focus states are equivalent.
How do you add (all of) these styles to the text in the first place, I know how to add the first one
You don't really. The 4 bottom selectors say -
"find an element with a class of 'def14grey4', and style any link inside that element this way"
So, <span class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></span> would get the pseudo-class styles, as would any of the following -
<span class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></span>
<td class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></td>
<p class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></p>
<body class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></body>
<div class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></div>
<strong class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></strong>
and so on. These examples assume that there isn't some other more specific rule that would apply to the same links. You need to study up on the CSS cascade and specificity....
