I am trying to use motion tracking to have text follow a section of the background.The text box follows the motion path, but the text just sits there. What am I doing wrong?

Motion basically looks at the the source footage and it's timing (in the timing section of the Inspector) when analyzing for tracking. Filters are basically ignored by the tracker. Retiming actions, like time re-mapping, or retiming behaviors that are applied before the tracker should be used by the tracker. Did you change the timing after doing the tracking? If so this would also require you to re-track the shot. Understanding that you found a workaround, describing the effects you applied would help to explain why you ran into problems.
Cheers!

I am trying to copy songs to an sd card for a digital photo frame. I changed my setting in iTunes to mp3 format before I downloaded the song but it didn't work. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions? I would be very grateful!

I am trying to copy songs to an sd card for a digital photo frame. I changed my settings in iTunes to mp3 format before I downloaded them but it did not work. What am I doing wrong? When I play the sd card in my mac or on a lenovo laptop it works but not in the photo frame. I would be grateful for any ideas as to what I am doing wrong.

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

Does the same file play normally in iTunes? Do other audiobooks play normally on the iPod?
How does "borrowing" work? Does it require use of another app, other than iTunes, to get it on the iPod?

An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?

Have tried to purchase an Ed Sheeran Cd today and thought My payment had gone through but cannot download the album to my Desktop. What am I doing wrong (in simple terms)

Does it show on your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store ? If not then you are sure that the purchase went through, it's not just a temporary store holding charge on your credit card : iTunes Store & Mac App Store: About payment card authorization holds.
If it does show then try the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes and see if that downloads it, or go to the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage and see if it shows there for downloading.

My motor receives data via a serial connection, but it won't move. What am I doing wrong?

Hello everyone,
as the title says, I am trying to use a motor called "MP285" by Sutter Instruments via LabView. The control unit of this motor only has a RS232-output, but I use a Serial-to-Usb-Adapter to connect the device to the PC.
My problem is the following:
I tried to perform a basic Input/Output test by using the Ni MAX an sending ASCII strings to the control unit (after configuring it according to the reference manual), which worked fine. I also used the "jabber"-function of the control unit to send an output string to the PC and was also able to read that string from the buffer. Besides, when I used a LabView-VI to send a command via VISA Write, it also appears on the display of the control (at least the ASCII letters).
Accordingly, I assume that the Serial-to-USB-adapter does work. Is that for sure, or can the adapter evoke any other problems?
However, when I try to use the shipped controlling software, the motor won't work. Furthermore, I contacted the customer support and they sent me some VIs and a LabView-Project, which was tested by the company. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. The motor wouldn't move, when I sent the command, although the LabView-interface indicates that there the connection between PC and controller has been established. As the program has many features and I only need a command to move the motor, read the position and set the origin, I tried to build my own VI. I had a look at some basic VIs for motor control and referred to the manual.
As it seems, the controller uses data streams of full bytes (8 bits, not ASCII) in Big Endian for its strings (I copied the information at the bottom of this text). Thus, I tried to concatenate particular strings to send it via VISA in the correct form (see attached). Do I have to convert the "m" into hexadecimal explcitly? I looked up "Convert ASCII to Hexadecimal", but when I try this, the output string does not change.
However, when I send this string to the controller in normal mode, nothing happens . When I activate the Input/Ouput test (see above), there is a m displayed on the controller unit. So I guess, I am messing up the command structure. Can anybody help me please?
Kind regards
PS: Sorry for cleaning up the diagramm..
PPS: For some reason, I could not attach the VI because " The contents of the attachment doesn't match its file type". So, I changed the name in "-vi" instead of ".vi" as suggested by a forum user. Hope this works for you!
Excerpt form the reference manual:
General Information:
"Command requests are single bytes followed by optional parameters and terminated by a
carriage return (CR, 0Dh). The data stream consists of full bytes (all 8 bits — not ASCII.
The lowest order byte (for example, of the four bytes encoding the X coordinate) is the first
into the controller and is the first out. The default Baud rate is 9600. Commands are
processed bytewise by interrupt and executed only after the terminating CR is received.
There are no delimiters within command strings. The controller will reply with carriage
return (CR, 0Dh) at the completion of normal command processing."
Command structure:
Get Current Position      command ‘c’CR 063h + 0Dh
                                           returns xxxxyyyyzzzzCR three signed long (32-bit) integers + 0Dh
Go To Position                 command ‘m’xxxxyyyyzzzzCR 06Dh + three signed long (32-bit) integers + 0Dh
                                            returns CR 0Dh
Setting up for Serial Communication:
First, use the 9-pin serial port cable provided with the MP-285 to connect the “serial port” of
your computer to that of the MP-285 controller. Next configure your terminal emulator (e.g.,
HyperTerminal in Microsoft Windows (9X and above) to the following settings (or their
equivalent):
• TTY mode
• Echo typed characters locally only (do not echo input to the computer serial port back to
the controller)
• Baud rate to 9600
• 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
• COM port - set to the port to which you have connected the MP-285 controller

Thank you for your feedback!
To make this clear: I dont know if the motor MOVES when sending the appropriate command via MAX. That is because I dont know how to enter the binary? command. I only tried to send some string like "dear moto please move" to see if this ASCII string can be displayed on the control unit while running the input-mode (which I described above).
This works for both, MAX and my Labview-Vi.
However, these are the I/O traces:
1. MAX: I sent the string: "Test"
NI I/O trace:

When I try to print coupons, I get a message that the coupon printer plugin has crashed. I've tried following the instructions for when the Adobe Flash plugin crashes, but reloading the page does not work. Just sits there for 5 minutes doing nothing.

Happens when going to print.coupons.com. I click the "learn more" button on the message that the plugin has crashed, and I get sent to the Adobe Flash plugin crash info page on Firefox. They say just to reload the page. There is a button for this. I click it and the page tries to reload for 5 minutes before freezing.

HT2515 My cam works fine with every program except yahoo. If I just sign into yahoo or even if I use ichat for yahoo, the webcam button will not highlight up. How can I fix this and/or what am I doing wrong?

Hello, my father recently passed (using his ID) and I took over the payments on his mac and took his computer. I am not that familiar with mac, but am usually computer savy. However, this one has me stumped. I have no problem starting the built in cam and it seems to work fine with all other programs I've tried using it with. However, it will not work with yahoo. Whether I use normal yahoo messenger or if I try using Yahoo through I chat. The cam button will not light up, therefore, it is not clickable. Which ultimately means I cannot use my cam on yahoo, which is something I use 99% of the time compared to other programs. So why is this happening and what solutions can I take to try and fix this? The mac I am using is: Mac OS X, Version 10.7.4
Thank you for any and all help, it is much appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
1) If the iTunes preference window is open when you connect your iPod, the iPod will not be recognized by iTunes.
Also, iPods can work with many iTunes libraries, so that is not the problem here.
Is all the software on your computer up to date?
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
Does the iPod show up in My Computer when connected to your computer? Does it say Do Not Disconnect?
Try the steps listed here...
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
If you are going to use your iPod with multiple iTunes libraries (home and school)...
Using iPod with multiple computers
2) What part aren't you understanding. Here are a couple of free programs you can use to convert videos...
MPEG Streamclip
Videora iPod Converter
The programs should come with documentation and instructions to convert videos.
3) You can go to file-->add file to library, file-->add folder to library, or have iTunes open and drag the files into the iTunes library while viewing the library.. You can also import from CDs.
iTunes needs to be adding the songs to the iPod. You cannot just add the song files to the iPod.

I have been trying to set up icloud on my ipad but nothing is showing up. what am I doing wrong or where do I look?

I have been trying to set up icloud on my ipad but after I run the program, nothing shows up on my computer screen or ipad. Have I left something out?

Thanks. That was indeed the problem. A few hints for others with this problem. You can only find out that you need to upgrade, and upgrade, by cabling your iPad to your computer. Then the next Tricky part is making sure you have your iPad purchases saved on your computer. Then you download the new OS upgrade and you will get a "start up" type of screen on your iPad with a few questions. Nowhere is there a very good explanation that you want to then go back to your computer and restore your iPad. I finally did that because there were no other obvious alternatives, though all the warnings made me very nervous. After the restore command, I synched my iPad and I seem to have everything back, and I can now access iCloud. maybe I missed some instructions somewhere, but I found this process much more obscure than the usual Apple directions. Thanks for your help!

HT4157 I'm trying to add this iPad to an existing AT&T account. I try to type in pass code, then go to the SSN & it deletes the pass code I just typed. What am I doing wrong

I need help adding this iPad to a already existing AT&T account.
I go to type in my pass code for AT&T then my SSN & it then deletes my pass code ... Won't let me add it

I have the same issue.
For those that that have responded to your question and don't know, you can now add your iPad to your existing AT&T data plan if you have the shared family data plan. It's cheaper since it's only $10/month to add the device to share your data plan vice paying somthing like $30/month for 3GB (or whatever level you need).
I was told by an AT&T employee that there are several ways to accomplish this.
1. Call AT&T
2. Do it online at ATT.com (I tried this but their website is down for maintenance)
3. Do it on the iPad (which is what you and I are trying to do).
I have no idea why after entering the passcode and then trying to enter the last 4 of your SSN that the passcode disappears. Or conversely, if you enter the last 4 of your SSN, then go to the passcode field, that the SSN disappears. So when you try to continue you get the please enter valid data message. Seems like a bug in the system.

When I right click on an image in an email message, select "save image as..." , then try and open it, its not a pic, but letters, numbers and punctuation marks. what am i doing wrong?

I save it to a folder and try to open it up like i did before. I never had this problem with Internet Explorer. Please help.

If you right-click the image and choose View Image Info, what shows as "Type"?
If it shows JPEG image, for example, make sure to save the file with a .jpg file extension. If you place quotation marks around the entire file name, e.g.,
"myfile.jpg"
then you can ensure that the name as the correct extension. Does that help?

I can't get my iCloud to backup anything, even though I could log into it just fine. What am I doing wrong?

Make sure you actually have a 2nd Generation Apple TV and that it's on the same Wi-Fi network as your iPad 2. Using your Apple TVs on screen menu, go to Settings > AirPlay and make sure that it's turned on.
On your iPad 2, double tap the Home Button to bring up the App Tray/Switcher. The screen should slide up and you will see some app icons there. Slide them to the right and you should see a Speaker icon, a brightness slider, some iPod music control buttons, and a button with a square and a triangle at the bottom. This button is the Airplay button. Tap on it.
You should see two choices. iPad and Apple TV. If you choose Apple TV, there is a switch that says mirroring. Slide the switch and your content on your iPad should now be mirrored on the TV through the Apple TV. (Some apps don't allow mirroring but most do.)

I no longer can download my Canon photos to my iPad Mini. The only change to my technology is that I download IOS7 to my iPad. What am I doing wrong?

Did someone ever experience not being able to download photos to their iPad? Everything worked well when I was on a trip. Today, I tried to download photos and nothing happens. My camera seems to shut off. The only change I can see to my iPad is that I downloaded IOS 7 and I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I'm not sure what this has to do with it but perhaps I should do something to my settings on my iPad? I would really appreciate some help if you've experienced something similar? Thank you so much.

That was the fix! Thanks for the quick reply. Great to be back on Firefox!

I want my guest map on to be centered in iWeb site. What am I doing wrong?

Hey gang,
I spent yesterday working on my website http://www.ericseals.com
and added a guest map, similar to what Rowan Cottage did.
His site shows the whole world from Alaska to the left to China on the right.
http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/Guestmap.html
On my site when the guestmap comes up it shows Europe, Asia and Africa not North and South America like I want it too.
http://www.ericseals.com/The%20Seals%20Family/Our%20Guest%20Map.html
Also I want to get rid of the white bar at the top like Rowan did. Any help and advice would be great
While your looking at my guestmap if you could also pin where you are from. Thanks.
Eric

Great work on getting the map integrated...
To get the map to display what you want by default, login to your guestmap account here...
http://mapservices.org/myguestmap/
Then adjust the values for "Map Center Longitude" and "Map Center Latitude" until you have it just right. What you can do is to have the Guestmap configuration page open to make adjustments and then have another window with your webpage open to view the changes. Just make an adjustment, then click over to your webpage and reload the page to see the effects of your adjustments.
To get rid of the white space above, below, or around your map... just move your textbox in iWeb around so that the top edge is covered under the textbox where you have your instructions. You can also insert other textboxes and make the the same color as your page background to mask off undesirable areas.

I am trying to use motion tracking to have text follow a section of the background.The text box follows the motion path, but the text just sits there. What am I doing wrong?
