Is there a way to stop and then resume an ipod video conversion process?

I am trying to convert videos to play on my new iPod Classic. The conversion process is painfully slow. I need to move the computer. Is there a way to stop the conversion process and then resume it later where you left off? The only way I have been able to figure it out is to put the laptop to sleep and then open it up later to resume. This is a problem too as I have an external USB drive hanging off the side. Any ideas?
Thanks all in advance for your help.

AFAIk you can just uninstall Thunderbird and reinstall. The profile will not be deleted. If you want to make sure, however, make a backup of your profile folder first.
Read up on "backup", e.g. here : http://email.about.com/od/mozillathunderbirdtips/qt/et_backup_prof.htm
(google is your friend :9 )
P.S. _ Matter of fact you should regularly backup your data (e.g. your thunderbirdprofile) to some place different so as not to loose it all, if a thunderbird-bug/virus/windows-failure/Layer8-Problem corrupts your data.

No, it will start over, and you should try to never pause an update, let it finish if at all possible.

Can I allow a user to stop and then resume a quiz while retaining previous results?

Hi all,
First post here! I have had a search of the forums and can't find an answer to a) whether I can do this and b) how to!
I am using Captivate 5.5 with Moodle as my LMS. I want to create a fairly large project where users work their way around a virtual 'assault course' (represented by images etc) answering questions at various stages. However, they will not complete the whole assault course (and hence the whole quiz) in one go - so I want them to be able to stop and come back to the quiz again several days later and be able to resume from where they left off - INCLUDING retaining the score they have achieved so far (so if they had got 5 points the first time they accessed the project, they would start at 5 points and add to that on their second attempt). I know it's easy to make them resume from the slide they finished on, but is it possible for their score to be resumed as well?
Thanks for any advice - I don't want to get too deep into building it if I won't be able to use the scores the way I want!

Users sometimes experience issues with Captivate courses in LMS where Resume Data bookmarking is used. Whether resuming works flawlessly or not seems to depend on the particular LMS to some extent.
What has happened in some cases is that when the user tries to resume the course after initially closing it down, they get stuck on the loading screen.
I would recommend you build a quick prototype course with several interactions of different types and test the Resume functionality with your chosen LMS. If everything works as expected, go for it.
EDIT: One more thing, make sure you get several different users from your organisation to test it with any different types of web browser that might be used. Especially things like IE7 to IE9 and Firefox. Don't assume everyone will have the same experience you do.

I am receiving my brothers imesssages on my MacBook, we share an iTunes account and an iCloud is there any way to stop his messages and add mine instead?

I am recieving my brothers messages on my MacBook, we share an itunes account and an icloud account is there any way to stop his messages and add my own?

Don't share the same ID for iMessage (you can still share the same ID for other things if you want). On your iOS device, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. Then on your Mac, open the Messages app and go to Messages>Preferences>General, select your iMessage account, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.

The MacBook Pro will not allow me to cut-and-paste to and from or to click-and-drag to the external drive. I can copy-and-paste, but then I must send the original to the trash, which doubles the time and effort. Is there any way to cut-and-paste?

I have recently switched from a PC to a MacBook Pro.
I have a large number of documents and photographs on a multiterrabite external drive, backed up on a second multiterrabite external drive.
Both external drives are formatted for MacIntosh. This has been verified by agents at an Apple store and also at Best Buy in two different cities.
This is the problem:

Also, the MacBook Pro will not allow me to rename multiple documents or photographs. I can click-and-rename a single one, but this is impossibly time consuming. I can batch-rename in iPhoto, but when I transfer the photographs to the external drive, the rename does not transfer.
I’m reduced to using my wife’s Toshiba to cut-and-past, rename, and transfer documents. It works perfectly. Is there any way to do this on the MacBook Pro?
Thanks!

No, this is a philosophical difference between Apple and Microsoft. Apple believes that it's dangerous to cut a file in case the user never pastes it; in that case the file is lost. Microsoft seems to not have this problem (if I remember Windows correctly) because they don't delete the originating file if it's cut but never pasted.
Even though Macs have a lot of keyboard shortcuts, philosophically Macs have traditionally been mouse-first. This applies to file copy operations. In your case, what a Mac user would do is open the source window, open the destination window (on your second drive), and then Command-drag the selected files from the source to destination window. This is because a normal drag would leave the originals behind, while adding the Command modifier key tells OS X that this is a Move, not a Copy, so don't leave the originals behind.
(In addition there are different rules for drag-copying within the same volume or between different volumes. If you drag between two folders on the same volume, the files are moved. If you drag between different volumes, the files are copied unless you hold down Command to delete the copies on the source volume.)

Two problems in this case. First, batch file renaming is not built into OS X unless you build something with Automator. However, there are many utilities that can do batch file renaming which you can find at macupdate.com or on the App Store. Since I work with media I often batch rename using one of the media managers I have lying around like Media Pro or Adobe Bridge (comes with Photoshop).
iPhoto is a database front end designed to shield the file system from the consumer and let them concentrate on creativity and sharing. As such it is often a poor choice for managing files directly. When you "transferred the photographs" chances are you moved the originals, not the ones iPhoto edited which are stored in a hidden folder.

There will not be a way to do it exactly like Windows. As described above, there are ways to do it "the Mac way." If it is possible to remove judgment on which way is "better" you might find the Mac way to be acceptable, but of course sometimes we simply prefer what we're used to.

you can't reverse the process, once you accepted there is no other way, if you sync it to your itunes library in your computer it will automatically update the updated app as well.
What you can try though is delete the app from your iPad and try syncing it to your itunes library but if you set up iCloud it may update the app automatically

Hi Sujatha vijay,
It sounds as if your Apple TV is in Conference Room Display mode. You will need to turn this off. See this article -

Last time I synced with iTunes all apps (except the originals) and all the work I'd put in them got erased. Any way to stop that?

Your apps didn't get erased. They're still there in your iTunes Library, you just didn't tell iTunes to sync all Apps when you synced. You have to either choose the specific apps you want to sync or say sync all apps.

TS3297 I bought an album, two of the twelve songs play about half the way through, then stop, and then the next song in line starts playing. How do I get the songs downloaded so they play to the end?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Is there any way to stop a process execution (all instances)

Hello,
I´d like to know if there is any way to stop a specific process for execution at the engine without need to undeploy it, since we don´t want to loose process instances when we need to start this process for execution latter on.
We have a PRD environment with a lot of processes from different departments (developed by different teams and external suppliers) and a feature for stop a specific process and isolate the environment could be very good to do root cause analysis when issues occurs at the environment.
Sometimes stop a specific process (or some of them) could help in issues investigation that causes the engine to malfunction (lot of audit enabled, some loop bad controlled, lot of concurrent access) but I could not see this option at the webconsole.
In the version 5.7 one EAR was created separatedly for each process deployed and this could be done stopping the EAR created for that process. Anyone know how to do this at version 6?
Thanks

Well the bad news is you are right, there really isn't any way to do this in versions after 5.7
Starting at 6.0 all projects are deployed under the 'engine ear'. So if you stop the engine, you stop all projects deployed.
I'm a little concerned that you are first seeing these issues in a 'PRD' environment, is this something that you could set up in a DEV, or UAT, or SIT, or any other environment (That is built similarly) to recreate the issues? - Then undeploy any of the other projects... and isolate the problem...

Is there any ways to stop Quicktime player from occupying audio hardware?

Hi, my PC system is Window XP Pro SP2, HP xw8400 Workstation w/ 2G Ram. And the PC has a Digidesign Pro Tools HD 1 audio system installed.
My problem is that after Quicktime player lauches, it will occupy the Pro Tools HD's hardware. And if I want to start Pro Tools software, "digidesign hardware is in use by another application." warning will occur and Pro Tools software will then quit. BTW, Digidesign's audio driver is not multi-clients compatible.
I have set Quicktime player's audio playback device to PC motherboard's audio device, and system's audio device is also motherboard's audio device, I even have checked the "use default device only" option. I can't understand why Quicktime player still occupies Digidesign's hardware, even it plays back audio through motherboard's audio device.
Though I can quite Quicktime player before lauching Pro Tools software, I still feel it's annoying and inconvenient, and want to know some ways to solve this problem.
Anyone can help? Thanks in advance. I have asked for help in Digidesign's offcial forum, no response.
BTW, the Quicktime player version on my system is 7.6.5, and each time Quicktime player launches, the sample rate led on the Digidesign's audio interface will flash, indicating that QT player is accessing Digidesign's hardware.

You are missing something simple but lets get it to stop as you want. Go to Settings/General/Bluetooth turn it off.

Closing video window brings up last minimized window..any way to stop this?

When I have multiple videos open and I minimize a few of them when ever i close the current one I'm watching it brings up the last minimized video window. Is there any way to stop this? It didn't do it before. I don't like the minimized videos to pop up on their own whenever I close one of the videos I'm watching. I minimize them so I can bring them back on my own **** terms. Anybody else having this problem?

Is there any way to stop the delay between different sets of speakers when using airport express?

Is there any way to stop the delay between different sets of speakers when using airport express?

Unfortunately, I don't have either a Slingbox or iHome speakers so I won't be able to reproduce any of the issues you are having. With the fact that you live in large apartment complex would still lead me to believe that Wi-Fi interference may be the reason that you are having streaming issues.
I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like iStumbler, or AirRadar to determine potential areas of interference, and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them where possible.
