How do you keep documents in finder from rearranging themselves?
Everytime I click on finder all of my documents say that they are sorted but they are in no order at all. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please respond.
Folder metadata is stored in an invisible file named ".DS_Store" and it will usually store the way you've organized data in a given folder. I'm not quite able to visualize what you're writing about? Can you post a screenshot (http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4391)?

How do you keep the browser heading from showing?
How do you keep the browser heading from showing in the
output? I did this once but can't figure out how!
Thanks in advance,
RosieYou asked...

Is there a way to shrink the application you're capturing so it
fits within a given capture window rather than requiring scrolling,
or would I have to go back to the application developers for that?
(I realize that would shrink the size of everything on the screen,
but in some cases, that would be worth it to be able to show a
window without scrolling.
If, by "shrink" ... you mean by using the AppSizer, the
answer is "not really". You can configure AppSizer to a defined
size, then with the mouse pointer double-arrowed on the "edge" of a
window, right-click and your window-size selections will appear in
the AppSizer "list" (that you set up) and can be selected there.
But there is no re-scaling of the window contents, if that is
what you mean, so the smaller window may now require scrolling.
But keep in mind that if you use the recording option for
"Software Simulation" > "Custom Size", you can then snap the
application window to that size... -
When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?
Max OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1
I had a similar problem: I wanted to synch my playlist to my iphone. I like to have my playlist sorted by genre. But under each genre, albums are not sorted by the track numbers. This is a problem, especially when I am listening to club mixes when the DJ smoothly transitions from 1 track sequentially to the next one. Under the properties of each audio file, the Track Numbers and Disc Numbers are already there.
My perfect solution was to turn On Sorting - Sort Album under View>Show View Options. Then, select all the songs in that album (Shift click, Cmd click, etc) , and Edit multiple item information (Cmd I). You will see Info-Video-Sorting-Options buttons. Click on Sorting. Then, under Sort Album, Enter the name of the album. Then OK.
You should now have the playlist sorted by Genre, then each album individually sorted by track numbers. On your playlist you should see, if you scroll right, the column added called "Sort Album".
Hope this helps. -
How do you keep in image/photo from sliding throughout a movie on iMovie?
I'm creating an audio movie using a picture as a background, but there is one problem. As soon as I hit play, the song begins to play while the picture slowly starts moving in any direction.
How do I keep the image from moving, rather staying motionless as in Windows Movie Maker. I tried turning off the Ken Crops effect to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.Select the photo. Click on the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. Instead of Ken Burns, choose FIT or CROP. Fit will letterbox, Crop will fill the screen by cutting of the edges.
You can also go into Project Properties and set the default action to Fit or Crop instead of Ken Burns. Then any additional photos you add will be imported the way you want them. -
How do you keep other iPad Apps from Installing on a second iPad?
We have two iPads in our home all synched to a single iMac.
So what is happening, is that any app that I install in my iPad automatically gets installed on my wife's iPad the next time she syncs, even thought that app is not lilsted on her APPS window! The reverse is true also. So we are constantly spending time deleting apps off our respective ipads, only to see them come right back next time we sync.
Please!!! How do you stop this from happening (yes I do have the auto sync new apps unchecked_.In iTunes, click the iPad in the Devices list.
Click the Apps tab.
Un-check the Automatically sync new apps box and click Apply. -
How do you keep QuickTime Player 7 from crashing when opening movie files

When I do this with Safe Mode, it doesn't crash. I'm guessing I need to some how make it so Quicktime uses more of the RAM, I got 16 Gigs, or use less CPU. Activity Monitor shows 87% CPU usage just before the crash. This is a one month old iMac, while on my old one from 2008 with just 4 GB RAM, it didn't crash.Thanks to QuickTimeKirk on another post, I got the answer. You use qtl (Quicktime Media LInk) files to point to the real .mov files. Then the qtl file will download when linked to on a web page. After the instant download, Quicktime player will open and grab the stream. Even on a PC! Great!

How do you keep display only fields from being inserted into tables?
Morning I have a problem where I am displaying a couple fields on a screen and they are tring to insert in to a table.
I am running Apex 4.1 on 11Gr2, i am building a set of screens, on the first one the user inputs a subject ID, that branchs to a second screen that uses the subject id to do a lookup for a couple fields for display. there are a couple field the user feels in and a row is inserted in to a differnet table. But Apex is tring to insert the lookup fields in to the second table when I really only need the subject ID.
How can I tell Apex which fields to use in the insert and which not to try to uses. I see in the debug it is getting all the screen fields in the inserty statement.
ThanksIn the insert process, take the cols out which you don't want to insert, say,
insert into tbl (col1, col2, ....) value (p1, p2, ...)
=>
insert into tbl (col1, col5, ....) values (p1, p5, ...) -
When you reduce opacity of a top layer how do you keep a bottom layer from shining through?
I have two objects intersecting each other on different layers. The object on the top layer I reduced the opacity for and the bottom layer which was previously hidden now is shining through. I do not want this to happen. I want the bottom layer to remain hidden beneath the top layer despite the lowered opacity. How would I accompish this simply? I have CS2.
Thanks for any help with this...Thanks Trex,
Yes! This works very well, amazingly great advice. One side note you might be able to use for future reference: the object on the bottom layer assumes a slightly different hue than the object on the top layer even when I adjust the opacity to the exact same level (both objects were the same color to begin with). I discovered this was because colors show up slightly different whether the background is white or a background with no color. So I simply created one more layer and placed a white colored object and placed this layer below my bottom layer object. This then matched the colors of both the intersecting objects.
Anyways, you probably already knew this, can be confusing to explain all of this in words.
Thanks a lot for your help, this saved me many minutes of frustration.

How do you extract non consecutive pages from a pdf document?
I see its easy to do it with consecutive pages by highlighting thumbnails then 'extract' but this does not allow for non consecutive pages.
Thank youAfter highlighting the pages you can drag them and drop them somewhere,
like on the desktop, and a new file will be created with just those pages.
If highlighting the pages is not feasible, or too tricky to do, then a
script can be used where you specify which pages to extract and the script
extract them to a new file. -

How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.
How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.
InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting. -
HT1689 How do you keep pictures from reloading with every sync
How do you keep pictures from reloading with every sync
What do mean by reloading? Once you sync the photos to the iPad they should not sync again. Is that what you are seeing? The progress bar is showing that the photos are being transferred all over again?

How do you keep iPod nano from going to sleep..
Thanks alexYou can't. There is no way to set the iPod up to never go to sleep. Doing so would dramatically decrease the Nano's overall battery life.

How do you keep yourself well organized at work?
For documentation I use onenote which is synced to my owncloud server so i can use it when ever needed. I also use a mix of wundlerlist and spiceworks to keep track of all my to do items and issues and requests. My number one recommendation is find the best way that works for you documenting and make sure to stick to it. Writing or typing it down will make sure that you retain what you did that day!
I am about to begin my first IT career in about a week (as a help desk position.)
I'm very excited about my new career shift but am bit worried at the same time.
That being said, I have a question that I want to ask all of you guys out there who has been working in the field for a quiet some time.
How do you keep yourself well organized when it comes to documenting results?
I was taught to document EVERYTHING after you solve your assigned tickets.
Are there any great tools that could come in handy when you document things?
Plus, what would be a proper way of documenting?
Would you document every single steps you've tried to solve your ticket?
Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you!
