How do you force Pages 4.1 to be the default Pages app?

Is there a way to use Pages 4.1 as the default pages app? I have installed the new Pages and have found it will destroy things in older documents so I don't want to use it. I would like to be able to click on the Pages icon and have it use Pages 4.1. I would like to do this in Numbers as well.

If you take the old pages icon off the doc, grab, lift, bursting cloud of small explosion, its sill around but not the go to program, then take Pages 5.1 icon (is that what you mean? Mavericks is 5.1) down to the doc then that version becomes the default program.
The older version (9) still resides in the iWorks folder in the APPLICATIONS folder/section.
in fact, you can switch back and forth until your totally confussed, back and forth.
Took me a whild to figure that I only want to use 5.1, left 9 alone in the iWorks folder..
I'm only a 1 level, I hope this helps.

How do you force DAQmx output to 0 at the end of program execution?

I am using a 6713 to generate an arbitrary analog waveform on its output. However, once the labview vi has finished execution, the output voltage from the 6713 does not go back to 0 V. I have tried to force it back to 0 V by appending a 0 V amplitude waveform to the end of the analog waveform to mixed results (if I give it thousands of points, it goes to 0, but if I make it a more reasonable 100 points, it doesn't). How can I force the output back to 0 V. I tried stopping the task, clearing it, and stopping it and then clearing it. None of those worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First, I have to ask, did you write this VI?
It is very hard to follow and has a lot of confusing structures in it. IN the middle area where a lot of the DAQmx functions are, the error wire loops around so much it is hard to tell what is happening in what order. To the lower left, an array is converted to a cluster, the cluster is unbundled, the individual elements are fed to a compound addition to get a single value. Why not just use a sum array function on the original array?
The stop button is fed to the Stop Sign function. This is Abort execution which is the same as hitting the red stop button at the top of the VI. It ends the execution of the VI right then and there and doesn't allow anything else to happen. Read the context help for that function. As someone else has said on the forum, "Using the Abort button is like using a tree to stop your car. It will stop it, but there might be consequences."
How is this VI being run? Is the Run Continuous button being used? My guess is yes because I don't see any While loops and the only thing the stop button does is end the program abruptly.
You will need to rethink your whole architecture. Stuff that needs to happen once should be set up before a while loop that has wires leading to the while loop or uses a flat sequence to make sure that it happens first. This is you program initialization.
Everything that happens repeatedly would be in the while loop. The front panel Stop button is what ends this loop.
Anything that has to happen before the program ends like closing out tasks happens after the while loop (either by wires for dataflow or in 3rd frame of a flat sequence structure. With this, you should be able to reset your tasks so they output a zero voltage from the analog outputs before the tasks are closed and the program ends naturally.
Appending a zero to the end of the waveform won't help because if the waveforms run continuously, it will restart back at the beginning.
I would highly recommend looking at the example VI's for DAQmx functions and taking the tutorials for Labview that are available on the NI website.

How do you set a usb sound card as the default sound device for all programs?

I'm running cmus for a music player and it works fine with the internal speakers on my macbook pro. I'm using a usb sound card for a set of 5.1 surround speakers and cmus won't send it's audio to the usb sound card. I've also tried several other programs for audio and it seems to be hit or miss with being able to use the usb sound card. I'm not sure if I'm overlooking the a setting or if there is a different audio output plugin for cmus that has the functionality I need. Cmus also won't play over any bluetooth audio device while some other sounds will.

Yes I did and it does not appear there. Only the ringtones I have created myself and the default ones appear in the list.

How do you force itunes comments to ID3 tags in MP3 files?

I have comments all throughout itunes. The mp3 files do not have those comments in the ID3 info.
How do you force itunes comments to write out to ID3 tags in MP3 files?
The folder and files all have write permission.

Yeah, don't do that, you probably also degrade the sound quality... If you've confirmed it is something odd with multiple tags try this.
Select a group of mp3 files (You might want to start with a smart playlist so you don't mess with any other format)
Right-click and use Convert ID3 Tags > None (may need to repeat this step if multiple tags)
Then right-click and use Convert ID3 Tags > v2.3 (v2.4 support still patchy from various accounts)
Downside is that it will lose any embedded artwork, but it should preserve all other meta-data, both tag-based and stored within the library itself.
In fact, if you use my CreateFolderArt script before and after updating the tags it should archive any artwork as a local Folder.jpg image for each album and then reinsert that image on the subsequent run... Check it out on a single album first. If it doesn't work as expected let me know and I'll tweak the script to achieve this end.

How do you FORCE FCPx to re-render a clip?

here's the problem.
Final Cut Pro X FREQUENTLY screws up transition renders. Did I say FREQUENTLY? It CANNOT be stressed enough, that FCPx DOES SOMETHING BAD to its transition renders Quite Often.
ok, until Apple fixes that nightmare, I want a workaround. I thought I had it:
if you hit control+r you tell FCPx to 'render selection.' its right there in the menu.
but its a lie. what it SHOULD read in the menu is: 'render selection, if it is not already marked as having been rendered.' This is a problem for me, because FCPx FREQUENTLY SCREWS UP TRANSITION RENDERS*.
*ok, I think I've said it enough, time for an example:
imagine a crossfade, standard, stock crossfade, using the standard timing... EVERYTHING is standard. Well, How would you feel if you were scrubbing an otherwise perfect edit... to find that your crossfades... ALL OF THEM... pop the resulting image, into the first frame of the transition? I bet you'd be mad.
How would you feel if you HAD NO RELIABLE WAY TO FORCE FCPx TO RE-RENDER THOSE TRANSITIONS? You'd be livid. Lets put some more firewood on here... How would you feel if this happened randomly, all the time? I really do mean ALL THE TIME. I can scarcely look at FCPx without it screwing up the transitions of my edit.
point is. FCPx has a wonderful editor. its a joy to use. But its chock FULL of bugs, and its so SMUG that it doesn't provide ANY workarounds. The Documentation is a joke. So I'm here... trying to find a way To FORCE FCPx to re-render something IT thinks is already rendered. the smug jerk.

OP here.
I'd like to make a few comments.
Apple has been slowly fixing critical bugs in FCPx, I'm happy with the direction things are headed. But we still have a long way to go.
the "delete Project Render Files" option is a late edition, and I "think" it is meant to address this specific issue. I find however that in practice, it introduces as many problems as it solves. deleting the project render files forces a re-render on the entire timeline, and as stated way back in the OP, FCPX screws up transition renders.
Let me dig into that a little bit. Randomly, FCPx will cut out the first frame of a transiton, creating a jarring full frame jump (as it skips to the second frame) just at the front of a transition, and fill the last frame with black. All I want to do at this maddening point is force FCPX to re-render specific parts of the show, one at a time, because if I ask it to render the other stuff, invariably I will be subjected to the same amount of render bugs I am trying to eliminate. (or more) FCPX does this randomly, so if I can force it to re-render only a specific segment, there's a chance it won't render that bit incorrectly. And with finite control, I can step through and fix each transition, forcing as many re-renders as necessary, always getting closer to done, rather than starting from scratch at every step.
so, the tip is appreciated, it just doesn't answer my needs. I like FCPX, and sometimes its a dream but it is still riddled with critical bugs and the lack of percision control over the system is a design flaw, IMHO.

How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

Pages v5 does not provide a user assignable word count variable. With some AppleScript, and a paste operation from the clipboard, you can have locale punctuated word count in this format: 7,803 — anywhere in your document. The following AppleScript works with Pages '09 v4.3 through Pages v5.5.2 on Yosemite.
I would suggest that you copy paste the following AppleScript into your [Apple] Script Editor and save it (suggestion) wordcnt.applescript. Then, follow this with an option+Save As… and this time set the File format to Script Bundle, or Application with hidden extension — saved to your Desktop. Provided you have a Pages document open, you are then a double-click from the ability to paste your current word count into Pages.
Note: If you have Pages word count display enabled, it will automatically count your pasted value as another word which initially may deceive on true word count at the time the script was run.
AppleScript
--- copy below this line ---
property locale : "en_US.UTF-8" -- In Terminal, use the locale command to see yours
if not ApplicationIsRunning("Pages") then
     display dialog "Pages must be running to use this utility."
     return quit
end if
tell application "Pages"
    tell body text of front document
        set wordCnt to count words
        -- Don't want punctuated numbers? Remove the single quote from printf format
        set the clipboard to (do shell script "export LC_ALL=" & locale & "; printf \"%'d\" " & wordCnt)
    end tell
end tell
on ApplicationIsRunning(appName)
     tell application "System Events" to set appNameIsRunning to exists (processes where name is appName)
     return appNameIsRunning
end ApplicationIsRunning

How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?

How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?
Note- I am trying to figure out how to create and format tables in the latest version of the Pages app on an iPad air (iOS 8.1.1.1) . Creating tables, adding or removing borders for individual/all cells in a table seems straight forward. However the default border style seems to be a heavy black line. How do I change this?
I found the option add or remove borders for all/ individual cells in a table, however I can't find any option within style/format dialogue screens for changing colour or line thickness for table cells. Likewise I can't find any clear instructions on how to do this in apple help pages or support website
Btw- I'm assuming it is possible to customize/adjust the colour & thickness of selected lines in a table created in this app (it's fairly easy to do this word processing apps like MS Word) please let me know if this is not actually possible in Pages

They know perfectly well what they took out of Pages '09.
Well over 90 features.
Do you think you posting feedback is going to remind them of what they did?

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
