How do you make Safari open using the homepage in Lion.

While using Safari in Lion, Safari wants to open each time with the last page used. How do I change it to open with the homepage?

When you close Safari use the Control key so you see Quit and close windows. I always close opened Safari windows before quitting. And I always get my homepage with I open Safari again.

How do you make VLC Media Reader the default reader for playing DVI videos that are on a DVD in the DVD player

For Snow Leopard and below (don't know for Lion) there is a free preference pane called RCDefaultApp that has all your file associations in one easy to manage location, includes tons of stuff, even controlling what gets opened when you click a link on a web page. Webcam and other associations. The Get Info method also works for your immediate need.

How do you make hanging indents on the iPad version of pages?

I'm trying to write a paper that needs to be in APA format which includes hanging indents. How do you make hanging indents on the iPad version of pages? I don't want to have to convert it into word every time I need to write a paper or fix the formatting

Create a paragraph style which has the margins and paragraph indent where you want them.

Once you've done it for one paragraph and got that looking right you can copy and paste that style onto other paragraphs:

How do you add safari favourites with the new iOS?

Do you mean you want to sync your desktop Safari bookmarks to iOS? This is done in iTunes when you sync the iOS device. There is a box to check to make this happen.

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play?

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play? At the moment, each artist in the album is being separated and I can't play them together. For example, to play the Halo 2 Soundtrack, Hoobastank, Breaking Benjamin, Nile Rodgers, etc. are some of the artists featured. However, in the Albums category, they are each separate choices. I want to play them all together, but can't. Is there a way to do that?

It sounds like the album metadata is incorrect, or differs from song to song in iTunes. Albums with various artists will play properly assuming all the songs are tagged with the same identical album name, as well as the track number. For the Halo 2 Soundtrack, metadata should look like this:
Song: <Song Title>
Artist: <Song Artist>
Album: Halo 2, Vol. 1 (Original Soundtrack)
Genre: Soundtrack
I had a similar problem with my imported Cowboy Bebop albums and the mixture of artists/album names. Once I adjusted the metadata, all of them play in the correct order just by selecting the Album from the available list or in Coverflow.

How do you make imessage work? The icon is there. You can type in the recipient but are not allowed to hit the send button

How do you make imessage work? We upgraded to verision5. The icon is there. You can type the message but the send button is not available.

There is some instability in iMessage. It is a versatile and confusing app even though there are so few options in its use.
I had issues trying to get iMessage work on both my iPads and my iPhone.
ON the iPhone, turning off WiFi service and then trying iMessage fixed the problem.
On the iPad 2, same thing. Turning off WiFi service fixed it.
On the iPad 1, I took a suggestion from zoomzoom and changed the WiFi network configuration on the iPad to use 8.8.8.8 as a DNS server and then use iMessage. That fixed it. Now I put the DNS back to default and it still works.
I suspect the iPod Touch will have the same fix as the iPad.
If you have a WiFi and 3G iPad or iPhone, try turing off WiFi and see if that fixes it.
Why? (beware, some of this is guesswork)
iMessage can talk SMS to cellphones and smartphones (that are using the cell-network). It can also talk Apple iMessage format to iPhones and iPads whether they are on cell-network or on WiFi. If you are talking to an SMS cellphone, iMessage figures that out and blindly sends your message. If you are talking to a iOS5 device, iMessage figures that out too, checks to see that they are on-line, and then does something different if they are or are not on-line. If you type in an email address, and not a phone number, I think iMessage attempts to see if the email address is registered with Apple (or iCloud or whatever) and if it is not, it does something to let you know, possibly by making the Send button not light up.
In order to register iMessage and an email, you have to let the iOS device see whatever service it is that iMessage uses. That is where the problem happenes. zoomzoom suggested manually setting the WiFi DNS to google's 8.8.8.8 IP address, then run IMessage, and that seemed to fix the problem. Setting the iOS device to use 3G-only (by turning off WiFi) also fixed the problem. I suspect going down to StarBucks or McDonalds and using their WiFi would also fix the problem. Once the problem is fixed, it doesn't seem to come back so I can't test these 'fixes'.
To change the DNS on your iPad find your WiFi networks configuration, click on the blue arrow, touch DNS, backspace over the number that is shown, type in 8.8.8.8 Then click on the WiFiNetworks button at the top of the screen. Now go run iMessage. After that, you can delete the DNS entry again and leave it blank. Your iPad will fill it in from the WiFi router when it needs it.

How do you make multi cameras look the same?

So I have three cameras used in the shoot. Lighting is from regular track lighting most commonly found in ware shouse type venues. Cameras 1 & 2 are one foot off the ground pointing ever so slightly up. Camera 3 is shooting from 15 feet off the ground pointing down. How do I make them all look the same in post production? When I try to increase the brightness in camera 3 it looks washed out. When I try to dim the brightness in 1 & two it looks dark and shadowy.

Ideally you start with this:
• 3 identical camcorders.
• Manually set the white balance in each camcorder onsite before doing a shoot.
• Make sure the 'program' setting is the same in each camcorder, e.g. they should all be "Auto" or "Spotlight" or "Portrait" etc. - the one you prefer.
• If possible, manually set the exposure in each camera
What probably happened is your camcorders' auto exposure did its job and the cams pointing upward were underexposed because the sensor was affected by the overhead lights.
If your clips' brightness & contrast are reasonably close, start by applying the Color Corrector filter to each clip. Use the Visual control (you will see the button when you apply the filter) and then use the Eye Dropper tool to set the white & black points in each clip. If the cameras weren't too mismatched this may be enough to correct the brightness mismatch. I doubt you will get a perfect match but hopefully close enough that it's acceptable.

How do you make PP CS5 use more allocated physical memory???

As you know, you can go to Preferences > Memory and change the amount of RAM reserved for other applications.
Now, I have 8 GB of RAM installed (Windows 7), and I have set my “RAM reserved for other applications” option to 1.5 GB. That leaves 6.5 GB of memory for Adobe AE, Pr, Encore and Media Encoder.
Here’s the problem: every time when I’m rendering or exporting in Premiere, I can see through Task Manager that Premiere uses only 1.5 or 2.0 GB of the physical memory, not the 6.5 GB that I’ve allocated. I know the rest is reserved for other applications, but none of them are running at the moment. So, how can I make PP CS5 use more of all the physical memory that’s left?

Memory management in CS5 is clever enough to use an amount of memory that minimizes the use of the page file and maximizes buffers, However that depends on the material in the project, the effects and transitions used, the export format and the hardware in use.
There is no sense in using large amounts of memory, when other components cause waiting before the contents of memory can be offloaded. Just as it makes no sense to use a Ferrari in traffic jams.

How do you make report selection variant the default selection varaint?

Hello all,
I know how to create a Selection Variant for reoprts and I know how to create a User Variable that defaullts field values for a specific user. But can anyone tell me how do you have a specific Report Selection Variant Default for everyone? I know this one is probably staring right at me but I'm not seeing it. Your help would be greatly apreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Bhatia,
That will only hold the data for that specific user. You can also do that via "user variables". What I would like to know is how do you get it to be the default for All users.
I am investigating the possibility of using t-code SE38 and changing the Values on the existing variants to contain the default data we'd like to see. I'd much rather create just one Variant per report and have that be the default variant.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

How do you type a letter using the Mac OS

How do you type a letter using Apple, this is my first Apple and I have only used the Windows Operating System before.

If it has a standard system installation that comes pre-installed with Macs, there should be an application called Pages installed. That is Apple's word processor.
You can launch it from the Dock, if its shortcut is there. The icon looks like an inkwell with a pen. (If you have related follow-up questions, such as setting up a printer, please post back...)
These Apple references may be helpful

How do you make multiple folders in the photo app-

the question speaks for itself.also, how do you sync multiple albums onto the phone?

The way I sync folders is this (I know it may not be what you are looking for).
But in iTunes you can pick a folder to sync to. For me I made a specific folder just for my iPhone.
Any pictures I want on my iPhone I put in that folder (copies).
And then in that folder you can create subfolders (to organize). Note though you can only go 1 subfolder deep. You cannot put a subfolder in a subfolder.
So for example:
C:\DATA\iPHONE This is the folder for my syncing.
I can create
C:\DATA\iPHONE\FAMILY
C:\DATA\iPHONE\FRIENDS
C:\DATA\iPHONE\ABSTRACT
C:\DATA\iPHONE\NEWYEARSPARTY
But I cannot create
C:\DATA\iPHONE\FAMILY\WIFE
Then you just put pictures you want sycned into them. Sort of better to work with copies and have a folder specific for the iPhone I think. At some point you will want pics removed from your phone and far easier to just delete them from the iPhone specific folder than if you went to route of syncing to the folder you actually store photos you want to keep forever on your computer. Having a specific folder with copies means you can delete and add at will and know your real memories are elsewhere.

How do I make Safari open PDF's using installed Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0

I would like to force Safari 3.1.2 to open all PDF links using Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0. How do I accomplish this? I have no problem making Safari use the Adobe Reader, however, I would like to use the full Adobe Program so I can save and download interactive PDF forms I have filled out on the web. Using the Adobe reader, you can only download the form itself - all supplied information using the form's interactive features are lost when the filled in form is downloaded.

Hello, Carolyn:
Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately, it is not working for me. I have both Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0 and Acrobat Reader v. 9.0.0 running on my computer. In either program's preferences both programs are availabe when I choose the program to display PDF files in the browser (Safari). There is no problem setting Safari's PDF handling to the default value.
When I choose Acrobat Reader to be the program to display PDF files in the browser, Safari will indeed use Acrobat Reader. However, when I choose Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0, Safari does not use the Adobe Acrobat program to display the PDF file, rather the file is displayed by the PDF handling features built in to Safari. I have found no way to make Safari use the full version of Adobe Acrobat. PDF files residing on my computer opens without difficulty using my copy of Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0. Do you have any other ideas that would help solve this problem?

How do you navigate dialogue boxes using the tab key in Photoshop CS6 on Mac OS X Mavericks?

I know that seems really 101 and obvious, but I worked in Photoshop on a PC for many years, and using the tab key to navigate through every field/radial button/dropdown menu/etc. was never an issue. On the Mac OS X however, it only navigates through certain fields within a dialogue box. And before the guaranteed suggestion to change my Mac OS X Keyboard preferences to allow full keyboard access to "All Controls" instead of "Text Boxes and Lists Only", I have already tried this setting which did not resolve my issue.
Does/has anyone out there worked between both platforms and had this issue as well? I'm a Mac guy through and through, but I must say, this is the one thing that I think PC has a slight edge on. It's incredibly frustrating to have my keyboard workflow interrupted because I can't simply tab over to a certain field that is in a dialogue box which I'm currently working in...
Here are my details:
Photoshop CS6 (13.0.6)
Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
Applies to all filetypes as the issue is regarding dialogue boxes and not files themselves.
No error message.
Normal use.
It works on PC, but not on Mac.
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor
8 GB of memory
719 GB of space available on my main HD
This has never worked in any version of Photoshop I have used on any version of Mac OS X, but has worked consistently on every version of Photoshop that I have used on every version of Windows I've used (up to Windows 7)
I hope this provides enough information to get the ball rolling on this. I fear that there is no answer that will resolve the issue, but before I throw in the towel, I figured it was worth trying this forum since my web searches have turned up absolutely nothing of help.
Thanks in advance for your time and help.
Best,
Tim

Thanks for your input. Since Safe Mac's Adware Removal tool has done a very good job of cleaning out the junk and
letting me run better, I'm happy for now.
However, I appreciate your judgement and I am working on evaluating Safari vs FireFox vs Chrome. I've had some trouble using FireFox with
LastPass which works very well under Chrome. But that is only one data point. Most of my Ram troub;e os related to the number of windows
and tabs I open. I've tried comparing the three browsers for how back each reacts.
I multiply windows and tabs because as I surf the web, I discover things I want and don't want to lose them. However, I need a tool more useful
and structured than bookmarks to be able to record things of interest to make them easy to return to and find later.
