How to only keep overlapping parts of vector shapes

I have a vector shape on top of a vector path drawing. The shape on top protrudes over the edge of the drawing underneath. Is there an easy way to simply remove the part of the shape that overhangs?
In the screenshot here, I want to remove the part of the green circle that is not on the underlying green shape:

Have you tried the Knife tool? Alternatively, you can draw a retangle over the area you want to remove, select both objects and then and choose Modify > Combine Paths > Punch.

How to make a stroke part of the shape

One of the letters (S) on a logo I am working on doesn't look the right thickness alongside the other letters - there isnt a bolder version available so I have added a small stroke to make it visually balanced (text is converted to outlines). I would now like to make that stroke part of the shape (ie no separate stroke, but thickness of the letter with the stroke). I'm sure I've come across how to do this before, but cant seem to find it now... can you help? Many thanks.

Caroline,
how is that different to just adding a stroke the normal way?
It is only in the sense that it may be done with a single letter in Live Type, thus enabling individual changes of appearance of letters and still allowing your editing everything (the/each special letter must be selected by itself, and then you can type in one or more replacement letters with the same appearance).
I just thought I should mention it, in case it might be preferable.

How Do I Keep My MBP From Working As Long As Possible

Hi,
I had a PowerBook G3 from Apple a long time ago. And the battary went out of work after I had the laptop for 3 years. And other parts of the PowerBook G3 like the hard disk and power supplier also went bad.
Now I'm purchasing a new MacBook Pro, how do I keep the parts of my laptop not from out working? (like for the battery, do I keep it connected while I'm using my MBP at home?)
Thanks.

Aside from the battery, there is nothing specific you can do. Technology is not perfect, and can fail at any time.

[CODE]for(....){
sprite.graphics.beginFill(..);
sprite.graphics.drawRect(x,y,1,1);
sprite.graphics.endFill();
}[/CODE]
But I find above shape is not vector shape.Because I change the IE size,I find the size of shape don't automatic change. How to use sprite.graphics to create vector shape?
Thanks

Set Flash object size to 100% x 100% in the HTML - then you'll see your drawing changes the size as you resize the browser window.

HT1206 we have only one computer and we are a family of four how do i keep my music apart from my kids music on itunes ? all of us have different id's and passwords but everytime we plug my iphone or their ipod touch we end up having the same apps ,games

how do I keep my music on itunes apart from my kids? everytime I connect my ipod to my computer I end up with a lot of apps and all thier songs on my iphone.

Do you mean you all have different AppleIDs? But, do you also have different user accounts on the computer?
Simplest thing is just give everyone their own user account on the computer - they log into their account and sync their devices from only their account. Keeps everything separate and neat.

Hi RaulRod,
Are you pressing the Sync button to transfer music after connecting your iPhone or do you have the option checked to 'Automatically Sync when the iPhone is connected?'
Have you tried manually dragging and dropping music from your library into your phone?

Remember that the month is only the display, and the Full Date & Time is still there. If I change the format to reveal what is behind the curtain:

There is no time limit in Firefox 4+ versions for the history.<br />
Firefox determines automatically how many pages can be kept without affecting the performance.<br />
You can see the current value via the reads-only pref places.history.expiration.transient_max_pages on the about:config page.
See:
* http://blog.bonardo.net/2010/01/20/places-got-async-expiration
If you lose the history then make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the browsing history.<br />
Also make sure that you do not have cleanup software that might clean up files in the Firefox Profile Folder.

In IPhoto or IPad, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with only edited photos. How do I keep it in or get it back to its original album?

When using IPhoto for IPad, can I move photos from one album to another? For instance, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with other edited photos. How do I keep it in or move it back to its original album?

That will depend on the kind of album your photo is in.
Most albums in iPhoto are created automatic by the way you are using and editing your photos, see: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/1.1/#blnkb9b1e2a
When you edit your photo, the edited copy is added to the automatic "edited" album and the view switches to he edited album. But the photo should stay in its original album - do you see something different? Only if you want the edited photo in the camera roll and the photo strea as well, you have to save the edited copy to the camera roll again after editing, otherwise the camera roll will show the original and not the edted version.

My iPad 2 only keeps a set number of emails for me to view eventually deleting from the screen. How do stop this as it syncs with my phone and mac book pro neither of which do this?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

How can I keep My 2 email accounts and all other using HTML? It only lasts temporarily, i.e. for the day...

(1) - when I open Firefox I recently have clicked on the hyperlink for HTML at the bottom of page, it works great for my gmail and yahoo accounts. However, it is not a permanent fix, as it apparently lasts just for the daily session. How can I keep my internet, et al. HTML permanently?
(2) - Firefox v24.0 is said to be fast and faster! However, I am not finding it so. when I click on a link or open a tab, it is frustrating as the tab labors too long to open...I more than not click on reload, which appears to help somewhat. Any suggestions?
(3) - I've just printed out the Mozilla Support Q&A on the error message from Firefox stating that it cannot load the website...how to I remedy this, as it occurs constantly with my Yahoo mail login?
(4) Finally, several weeks ago I inadvertently popped the "HEALTH" Bookmark (I have a Bookmarks Toolbar), which is excellent (had it with WinXP also, now with Win7), but I seem to pop, double click, or something or other, that makes a bookmark folder jump into the wild blue yonder! I've posted for answers here and elsewhere, printed out and read all variable instructions to navigate and locate, all to no avail. More sage advice please?
with appreciation and, thanks in advance.

For #1, is the link to use HTML to simplify the interface?
It may be that the site stores your preference in a cookie, and you might have set Firefox to delete the cookie when you exit the browser. There are a few built-in ways to do this:
* Set Firefox to "Keep [cookies] until: I close Firefox" on the Privacy Options (you can create an exception for your mail sites)
* Set Firefox to "Clear history when Firefox closes" on the Privacy Options
* Use a private browsing window to visit your mail site
It's also possible that add-ons or external software may clean out cookies, or that there is a problem with the database file Firefox uses the store cookies.
For #2, did this problem just start recently? Do you notice any relationship with the type of site content (e.g., pages that use Flash or other media)?
