How to freeze iPod display (intentionally)

Is there a way to freeze the iPod display so that it becomes immune to turning and touches?
The point: I have got something on the display which I want to show to someone else. Then I hand the iPod to the other person. At that point usually the orientation changes (landscape <-> portrait) or I or the other person accidentally touches the display and the content of the display is messed.
In iPad there is button which locks the orientation. But I want also lock the display so that it does not react on touches.

  • How to have ipod display photos in a desired sequence from windows ?

    I just bought a ipod 80GB model. Downloaded all my photos from foldes in my Compaq running Windows XP Pro. Thd photo slide show display sequence is somehow by some sort of file name sequence. How can I arrange the photos in my windows directory in a desired sequence to be downloaded to ipod to display accordingly ? Is there software available under windows XP ?

    good morning. I have been trying out how to send you an question...and this is the only path I could find. My question is in regards to a post you had on August 17 to dcwhited regarding photos and lightroom.
    I am running Windows Vista.
    I, like dcwhited have recently installed lightroom. Here is my problem.
    Before installing lightroom when I loaded my photos from the memory card to the computer, they automatically went into my file I had created on my desktop. Now they automatically go into lightroom I changed the setting in lightroom as you suggested to dcwhited. But on the general tab (autoplay )I cannot read what you have told him to check off. Can you help?
    I have another question, I have recently started shooting in raw as opposed to Jpeg. I did manage somehow to export one file from Lightroom into the file on my desktop, but when I open that file there are just symbols with ORF on them, I am assuming that this is because I shot them in raw. However when I want to open them, CS5 automatically opens up. What if I want to process them in Elements 9.
    Thanks for any help you can give this old muddled brain of mine!

  • How should I find out the stuff that keeps freezing the display?

    Hi,
    I am using gnome-shell from testing repo on a laptop computer. The system(I do not know which part) has frozen several times in a same way. The whole display just suddenly stops reacting while I am scrolling down the web page in Chrome, opening a wine program, or something else. I have not figured out any pattern of its occurrence, so it's not repeatable for now. It seems that it's related to some modules or libraries used by Google Chrome browser or Wine because it mostly happens when I am interacting with Chrome browser.
    It seems that only the display is frozen. I could not enter the tty with Ctrl + Alt + <F1...F8>, but I could move the cursor with my TrackPoint mouse. The NumLk/CapsLk LED also reacts normally. Even the network is working - when turning off and on the hardware switch of wireless, WiFi LED shows like the system is trying to reconnect the WiFi automatically.
    If there's anything related Chrome, I guess one of the possible reasons is that when installing google-chrome-dev from AUR, I replaced libpci with libpciaccess in the depends array so that it won't cause a file exists conflict when installing.
    Another possible reason is xinput, which I use for TrackPoint scrolling.
    Now I am very curious in finding out what exactly it is that keeps freezing the display, but I'm not sure where to start. Could anyone give me some suggestions?
    THANKS

    My iPod is sad.
    iPod displays a "sad iPod" icon.
    What does this picture on my iPod mean?
    Also, there is a pretty comprehensive post written by another forum member which is about the sad iPod icon or the folder and ! icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

  • How many different iPods can I sync with my single iMac user/iTunes account?

    Good Day to All,
    Can anyone tell me how many different iPods &amp; iPhones can I successfully consistently sync/integrate using my one "user account" in iTunes on my iMac? This ist situation:
    I have always (and only) synced etc. my iPhone with my one iTunes UID which is under my ONE "User Account" on my  iMac. Recently, my elderly folks gave me 2 iPods they have never used. One is a little silver 4GB shuffle (the little guy with a built on "belt clip" &amp; it verbally tells you what song and artist is playing. The other is also an iPod shuffle ( only 1GB), also has the metal "pinch to open; belt clip"; also no display, however it came with a little USB Dock and THIS ONE has all of the user controls on the face of it in a circular patter of course..
    To have COMPLETE successful "interaction/integration/syncing" etc (with no issues/complications etc) with my iTunes currently and previously only used with my iPhone, do I have to create two new additional "User Login/accounts" on my iMac (one for each iPod) to have all three if my devices work perfectly fine, or can I just use my same iMac login (UID) &amp; iTunes that I use with my iPhone and have no worries?
    (ie: I created my girlfriend her own iMac login UID which she has always used for backing up/syncing etc her iPhone with HER iTunes library etc)
    In short, does iTunes have the ability to have multiple iPods &amp; my iPhone under my one existing iTunes account AND using the same single iMac login/UID I've always used with my iPhone?
    Obviously, I know I could create an iMac login for my mom's, another for my dad's &amp; create them both their individual iTunes accounts, but they really don't want to have to worry about dealing with all that. I'm teetering between just treating them as my iPods and mixing/adding their limited CD's into my library (again, if iTunes allows multiple iPods etc as explained above..
    OR; my other thought would be (again, if one iTunes account can integrate the two iPods as seperate devices and to just create ONE iMac UID login and ONE iTunes account under my dad's name, and use that one account for both of their music, both of their iPods, importing their CD's into the same iTunes library, then when syncing etc. just doing selective transfers/sync's of the specific music for each iPod... Even then, will iTunes be able to differentiate the two as far as backups/restored etc? I think  answering my own question as I type due to the cloud... For completely individual cloud interaction/integration, I would def need to create each of them their own iTunes accounts, otherwise they will have all of each other's songs on their devices.. (ie: And my dad def doesn't want to worry about skipping over my mom's Journey or Aerosmith tunes to get to his Willie Nelson and vice versa for example.
    (Sorry sooooo drawn out; thinking outloud) I guess it seems obvious that since all their digital music has to be on my iMac, I really should create them each their own iMac UID login as well as their own individual iTunes Acounts to insure cloud services work easily for restores/backups etc...
    Thanks for stumbling thru my thought processes here (if I didn't lose ya long ago); I'm exhausted and throwing thoughts at the classroom board to see what sticks.... The best easiest way that is.. (The two aren't always the same obviously!)
    Thank you all for your precious time and consideration and most if all; YOUR PATIENCE!! Any confirmation if the options and suggestions are greatly appreciated. You know, gotta take care of the folks &amp; what is the simplest for them as just end users is the most important or they'll NEVER bother with them in the end...
    Respectfully appreciative,
    DB

    You can use as many iPods with one iTunes library as you want.

  • When receiving email, Thunderbird freezes and displays "Not Responding" in screen header. Adds popstate folder to account.

    I'm running Thunderbird 31.6.0 on Windows 8.1 with BitDefender 2013.
    PROBLEM:
    When getting email, Thunderbird freezes and displays "Not Responding" in screen header.
    When TB is closed then reopened, a popstate folder (popstate-1.dat) is added to account. A new popstate folder appears with each crash/freeze, and as long as they are not deleted, they pile up with unique numbers (popstate-1.dat, popstate-2.dat, etc.).
    (see attached screenshot)
    NOTE: I've included troubleshooting details below for all the fixes I tried, thinking it might be helpful to anyone who has a similar problem and is thinking about going down those paths. Ultimately, it seems that FIX ATTEMPT 5 is the winner.
    ==================================
    FIX ATTEMPT 1:
    Following the suggestion in this archived mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026288, I restarted Thunderbird in Safe Mode (Help > Restart with Add-Ons disabled...), checking the "Disable all add-ons" and "Reset toolbars and controls" and clicking "Make Changes and Restart" button.
    In Add-Ons Manager, BitDefender Toolbar now appears to be disabled.
    (see attached screenshot)
    But the problem persists.
    FIX ATTEMPT 2:
    Following the suggestion in this archived mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1016811, I clicked Help > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder button. This opens a File Explorer window for 3I58b9dq.default (this is the "profile" folder) which contains panacea.dat and folderTree.json files.
    I changed file names to panacea-changed.dat and folderTree-changed.json (rather than deleting them, in case I need to restore them), and I reopened Thunderbird.
    This did not solve the problem -- and, furthermore, the profile folder seems to have automatically generated new panacea.dat and folderTree.json files to replace those for which I changed the filenames.
    FIX ATTEMPT 3:
    Following the suggestion in this mozilla support post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1044774, I restarted Windows 8.1 in safe mode with networking enabled (using these instructions: http://www.howtogeek.com/107511/how-to-boot-into-safe-mode-on-windows-8-the-easy-way/.)
    TB does not crash when Windows runs in safe mode, but the aspect ratio of my display is distorted; everything's really big and stretched horizontally, and my two displays are mirrored rather than extended. Running Windows perpetually in safe mode is not the ideal fix.
    QUESTION 1: I understand that troubleshooting is supposedly done best in safe mode — What might I do in safe mode to diagnose the Thunderbird problem?
    FIX ATTEMPT 4:
    This article https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Testing:Antivirus_Related_Performance_Issues#Symptoms, suggests that problems with Thunderbird associated with BitDefender can be solved by uninstalling and re-installing BitDefender.
    Not really comfortable uninstalling and re-installing, I disabled Bitdefender (Settings button > Antivirus button > Shield tab > On-Access Scanning toggle Off) to see if that would work. It did not fix the problem.
    QUESTION 2: Would uninstalling BitDefender be any different than disabling it?
    FIX ATTEMPT 5:
    Create a Bitdefender Exclusion for the Thunderbird folder:
    Settings button > Antivirus button > Exclusions tab > Excluded files and folders link > Add button > navigate to Thunderbird folder (c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\thunderbird) > Both radio button > Add button > OK button
    THIS FIX DID THE TRICK! YAY!

    FIX ATTEMPT #5 above did the trick, and now I see that it was the chosen solution for a similar post of the same problem at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1044774

  • Can i stream my ipod display on LED tv via apple TV ?

    Can i stream my ipod display on LED tv via apple TV ?
    I tried this using "apple to hdmi" cable . I am able to see the display for IPAD but i am not able to see the display for ipod touch .. facetime,playing videos also didnot stream the display on tv.So planning to buy apple TV .
    Please let me know if i can stream my ipod touch 4th generation display on my LED TV ?

    The 4G iPod does not support airplay mirroring like the iPhone 4S or iPad 2 (and later) with iOS 5 and later. Thus you iPod will only AipLy for apps that support AirPly.
    From the Videos, iPod, Photos, Music, and YouTube apps on iOS devices, stream videos, music, and photos to an Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation), or stream music to an AirPort Express or compatible third-party device.
    With iOS 4.3 and later, you can also stream video and audio from a website or a third-party app installed on your iOS device if the developer for the app or website has added AirPlay functionality.

  • IPod displaying the same artisit more then once in the artist view

    When I sync my library to my ipod, my ipod displays copies of the same artist. Right now it is 3 copies and I was wondering a way to fix it.
    I have purchased the songs in question from the itunes store. and the artists that are repeated have the same albums and songs listed under them... Im refering to the "artist" sort mode on the ipod
    I know this isnt a tech forum per say.. but this is really annoying me and would like to know how to fix it..
    This is what my ipod displays when I go to sort by artisit
    Coldplay
    Daughtry

    Daughtry
    Disturbed
    Im sure you see the problem and yeah... appreciate the help if someone can help me.
    Also the 2 artists that are doing this are daughtry and our lady peace... both of whom I purchased the music from the itunes store

    Select all the songs in the iTunes library by the same artist (all at the same time). While all are highlighted do a Get Info. Is the Artist field blank? If so that means there is an actual difference between two or more of the selected tracks for that field. Mispellings, added space characters, accent marks on some by not the others, etc. Simple solution is to now type in the artist name (to be applies to all the songs equally), OK out of there and see if the iPod looks right after re-syncing.

    My son's iPod Touch is displaying the iTunes icon and a USB connector image. He cannot charge or connect.We have tried a different USB cord. We have tried  reset his iPod. No luck. Any suggestions?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How to Freeze Headers of tabular report and Forms - and Column Alignment

    I have executed the solution listed in the following thread in my tabular form.
    Re: How to freeze Headers of tabuar report and Forms in APEX 4.1
    This works pretty well in my tabular form, but I do have a question and was wondering if the forum users can shed some light.
    The tabular form has some display only fields and some editable fields. For example, columns A - G are display only fields (Display as Text - escape special characters, does not save state) and other fields that come after are editable. When there is data in the display only filed, every thing looks fine - column headers are aligned with the tabular form column data. But when there is no data in, one or more of, these display only fields, the tabular form columns/data shift to the left and now the column header does not align with the column data.
    Following are the specifics
    Full APEX version - 4.0.2.00.07
    Full DB/version/edition/host OS - 11g
    Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS) - HTTP Server OAS
    Browser(s) and version(s) used - IE 8
    Theme - Sand-10
    Template(s) - was using the Standard Report (then created the one found in the thread listed above and substituted with the new one)
    Region/item type(s) - Chart Region
    Links to related posts and threads (using the methods in the FAQ) - Re: How to freeze Headers of tabuar report and Forms in APEX 4.1
    How do I set the column widths so the column header aligns with the column data?
    Thanks,

  • How to Freeze Report Header

    Hi Experts,
    Could you please guide me how to freeze the report Header , so that user can sea the header if he scroll down to bottom.
    Thanks,
    Pavan.

    Hi Pavan,
    Unfortunately, it's not possible to freeze the headers on the UI. You might want to export it to excel.
    On the Query Definiton you can control how many rows are displayed per page. I would recommend reading the help section on this before attempting it. As a general rule, if your result set is large, you might want to consider adding one or more required filters so that the query is not automatically executed with no filters.

  • I have 3 airport express units, an Ipod and a PC.  I used the PC to set up an airTunes and the AirUtility can see all three of the airexpresses.  The Ipod displays all of the airexpresses and I can pick any one to stream music to. PC won't - any ideas?

    I have 3 airport express units, an Ipod and a Windows 7 PC.  I used the PC to set up an iTunes/airTunes and the AirUtility can see all three of the expresses.  The Ipod displays all of the expresses and I can pick any one to stream music to. The PC won't - any ideas? AirUtility tells me the 7.5.2 version of the firmware is the latest for the expresses and ITunes is also reporting that there are no upgrades available.  I get an error code -15000 when I try to connect from the PC to one of the expresses.

    How do I configure the AX to connect to the hub's wireless network? It will only scan one base station Airport Express at a time in the Airport Utility. I think what I am trying to do is use the hub as a router to the two AX's. Is there a specific way to set this up?
    To set up the AX to join a wireless network as a "Wireless Client," using the AirPort Utility, either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    Launch the AirPort Utility.
    Select the AX.
    If not already connected to the AX's wireless network, go ahead and switch to it when prompted.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
    Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    Network Name: <type in the network name/SSID of the wireless network that you want to join or select it from the pop-up menu>
    Wireless Security: None OR, if you are using security on your wireless network:
    Wireless Security: <Select the appropriate level of security for the existing wireless network: WPA/WPA2 Personal | WPA2 Personal>
    Password: <enter your wireless network security password>
    Verify Password: <re-enter the same security password>
    Click Update to write the new settings to the AX.
