How to change attributes of multiple devices ?

This is something I thought would be straightforward but for the life of me I can not see how is it done in ZCM. I just want to set a property for a number of devices - based on a manual selection or maybe search results. E.g. I would like to set a location for all devices added on a given day. I can easily do a search to bring up a list of the devices but can not see a way to set an attribute for those. Am I missing something obvious here ?
While on it, is it possible to set device attributes from bundles ? E.g. as a part of post-imaging process I would like to set the location or the department for that device from a linked bundle.

Guys, "cannot be done" would still be a valid answer :) I doubt it can't be done, after all it seems to me like a pretty basic feature. I would even be happy to change the attribute for a group of devices - e.g. create a dynamic group then change location for the members .. but I can't see a way of doing that either.

We have just moved from MobileMe, where we had a 'Family account' (and we each have our own @me.com email addresses) to iCloud. We share the Cal and Contacts on our iMac. How do we sync to multiple devices - we each have an iPad and an iPhone, but with different accounts set up for mail. Mine syncs OK to Cal and Contacts, but hers doesn't. There must be a way! Please help.

According the this: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html, "After moving to iCloud, family member accounts are no longer linked to the master account." You can share an iCloud calendar (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690), but I don't think you will be able to share iCloud contacts unless you are signed into the same iCloud account on both phones.

How to change Major/Minor bluetooth device type?

I have a fleet of 8540w that will be used in a medical field service application. The field devices are bluetooth devices and will only pair with a device that has a Bluetooth major type of Medical Equipment. How can I change the bluetooth major device type that is reported by the notebook to the field devices?

I would have thought so, too. However, the mouse showed up with the name on a new MBP that it had not been paired with before. So, either the mouse remembers it's name, or there is some sort of sync of Bluetooth device information via Apple ID or the like. Otherwise, the MBP could not have know the name that it was given on the iMac...

How to change color on multiple text clips

I just finished creating a video with a lot of moving text. It's about 40 mins long. The client wants the text color to be different in the video. My problem is I have multiple text clips (hundreds) that I need to change.
Is there a simple short cut to do this. I love how in fcp you can use the past attributes feature to paste drop shadows and other motion elements on multiple clips. I haven't seen this option for color though.
Thanks,
Cody

Thanks Mjax4,
That's definitely one way to do it. The only negative is having to render all of that.
You cannot simply copy/paste the color...
Here's another way to do it. Note: this isn't really elegant AND it's still going to require rendering - so it might not work for you. But, I guess with any 'workaround' you've got to weigh the pros & cons, though, eh?
Anyway, you could
1.) Put a Color Solid on the video track above one of your titles.
2.) Set the solid's color to the exact color you want the titles to take on.
3.) Set the solid's composite mode to "Travel Matte-alpha". (This will use the alpha info. from the text clip to cut a hole into your now-colored solid.)
4.) Copy this clip to all the other titles, above them.
Again, this is just another workaround...so your alternatives are:
• Bear down and re-do all the graphics properly...time-consuming!
• Use one of the "other" techniques and wait on a render.
They both cost you time. But at least with rendering - you can do whatever else you want while it's happening. It's wait-time. Not WORK time. Up to you!
Hope this helps.

How to share account with multiple devices?

3 kids with 3 devices - an iPod Touch and two iPads Mini - family shares one account with Apple/iTunes and one library on our family PC. They use FACETIME and MESSAGES with their friends, and they all see each others messages and conversations. How do I fix this? Is there a setting or a way to create sub-accounts off the family account so they can still share the main library for music and video OR do I have to create separate Apple/iTunes accounts for each kid? Is there a setting on their devices that can help? Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm not even sure the right question to ask...

How to change attribute "read_only" of a inputfield in a table?

Hi, experts,
action:
1.Create a table with name " A_TABLE" in the layout in a view.
2.Binding some fields from a structure to the table.
3.Field "Checkbox" is a checkbox type and field "input" is a inputfield type with readonly in the table "A_TABLE" .
4.I hope: When selecting a checkbox in the "Checkbox" colume in a row in the table, the field "input" corresponding will be changed readonly.
The follow is my code: When select Field "Checkbox" , the method is invoked.
method ONACTIONCLICK4DISDESC .
   data view           type ref to if_wd_view.
   DATA input_desc     TYPE REF TO CL_WD_INPUT_FIELD.
   data tab            type if_BIDDING_LIST_VIEW=>elements_ONSURVEY.
   data struct         type if_BIDDING_LIST_VIEW=>element_ONSURVEY.
I have set "wd_this->m_view = view" in the method wddomodify and add m_view to the attribute of the
"viewBIDDING_LIST_VIEW" .
   view ?= wd_this->m_view.
   input_desc ?= view->GET_ELEMENT( `TABLE_INPUT_EDITOR` ).
   input_desc->SET_READ_ONLY( EXPORTING value = abap_false ).
endmethod.
result:
when I select a checkbox in the "Checkbox" colume in a row in the table, all field "input" is read and write.
How can I do it ?
Best regards,
tao

Hello Wang,
You need to bind the readOnly attribute of the input field to a newly to created attribute beneath the dataSource node of the table within the context. That way, each input field of each row of the table can have a different value for readOnly.
Best regards,
Thomas

How to change duration of multiple photos

Greetings - I'm trying to change the duration of multiple photos in iMovie. Basically, I'm trying to change the duration of about 300 images (to make a time-lapse movie), but can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.
I need to change the duration of every photo to 0:03, but when when I do so, it automatically imports the photos with a duration of 9:29, and I can only change the duration of individual photos after import. I made a time-lapse move a while ago but can't remember how to do it. Any thoughts?

Select a group of your stills in the time line. (I would do maybe 30 at a time, because to do the whole 300 at once might overwhelm the machine -- though you could try.) Then go to Media > Photos > Show Photo Settings. In the Show Photo settings dialogue box, set your duration to 0:03, and then hit Update. The selected photos should all update to 0:03. You may need to remove the transitions first.
Another way would be to set your duration for 0:03 on the first photo that you import into your timeline. Then all other photos that you import afterwards will have that same duration.

How to change attributs of a piece of Document ?

Hello,
I have a JTextPane and a Document which has inherited of DefaultStyleDocument.
When the user has selected a piece of the text, I want to make him changes a few attributs
I looked at the sample TextComponentDemo, but all attributs are specified in menu items (so they are quite static).
In fact, users want to :
1. Select part of the text
2. Click on a menu item for example "Change Color" which invokes the JColorChooser Class
3. change the text after having selected a color.
More generally, this applies also to font name from the font family, font syle and font size.
I noticed that there is a class name AttributSet, but I don't know how to manipulate this set (especially where to find attribut names).
Thanks in advance for suggestions, examples, or pointers to good documentations
Gege

but all attributs are specified in menu items (so they are quite static).Yes, but the Action is created using a color Object. So just create an action using the color selected from the JColorChooser and then invoke its actionPerformed() method:
Action foreground = new StyledEditorKit.ForegroundAction("", colorFromColorChooser);
foreground.actionPerformed(null);

Pasting Speed Change attribute to multiple clips

Since the FCP7 upgrade, I can no-longer paste speed changeattribute onto multiple-selected clips and have them ripple accordingly downthe timeline. I often have to match my video track time to the audio track timeand normally do the math to find what percentage the clips have to belengthened, change the speed on the opening clip, copy that clip, select theremaining clips, and paste the speed attribute to the selected clips. Before 7,they would change speed as well as length, now pasting the speed attribute onlychanges the speed and not the length of the selected clips, even when 'Ripple'is checked...
it's a serious time killer to have to do them one at a time...
This issues has been posted by atleast 2 other posters and hasnot received any replys. Pleasehelp us.
thanks

Sorry KV, I don't think you can do that anymore. Most folks really didn't like the old speed handling functionality pre FCP 7 and were seriously pleased when it was reinvented ... unfortunately "you can't please all the people all the time". Why not just nest the video track and then apply a single speed change to the whole nest?

Changing AppleID across multiple devices

I currently have an email address associated with iTunes, iCloud & my iPhone that I no longer use anymore. I would like to change them all over to a new email address but don't want to lose purchases. How do i do it?
I thought I had done it but I kept getting prompted for my password related to my old email address.
Also....the one place I couldn't seem to change it was on my iphone when I went to Settings>ICloud>Account. there isn't an option to change AppleID. it appears to be locked.....

Did you create a new Apple ID or change the primary email for your Apple ID? Two different things and the latter is the correct way of going about the process
Go here > Apple - My Apple ID
Manage your Apple ID and change your email address. After you do that change the Apple ID used on your device(s) for all of Apple's sevices (iTunes, iCloud, Messages, FaceTime, etc.)

Apps are permanatly assigned to the Apple ID used to download them. You cannot change this and apps are not transferable.

Scroll down... Delete Account (big red button). Note: This only affects the device
