I don't know how to ask this question... Can you help?

I'll state right from the get-go, this is NOT a Premiere problem.  This is a Windows problem, but I don't know exactly what it is.
Why I'm I posting it here?  It's in Premiere that I notice it the most.
I can be watching my playback in Premiere fine and then all the sudden, my playback will stop.  At first I thought it was a bug in Premiere, but then I notcied it happening in AE and other non-Adobe programs.
The computer is acting like I clicked away from Premiere, like on the desktop.  Playback stops and then I have to click my Premeire window again to make it active and then play again. 
This happens every 5 minutes or so (haven't timed it).
When it clicks itself out, it doesn't really go anywhere that I can tell, but something is definitely making my active window/program become inactive.
I'm not sure how to even phrase this question since I don't know what is really going on.  But it's driving me crazy in Premiere as I'm in it about 15 hours a day.  So it's happening, as you can imagine, 5-10 times an hour during my playack.
In fact, just at this very moment it did it again while writing here.  My Chrome page became inactive and I had to reclick right here to continue writing.
Any suggestions on where to even start?
I've had probably 50 computers since Windows 98 and I've never seen this before.

If it happens at regularly timed intervals of user input inactivity,
I would suspect a power option trying to spin down a drive
or blank the display.
I would start 'GodMode' and check all of the power options.
Create a new folder, and give it this exact name:
GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

  • (notation) dont know how to ask this question , but here we go

    How do i change the tempo of a song without adjusting the actual tempo?
    heres why:
    im composing songs in a tempo that sounds great by ear, but i need to decrease each value of each note in half so it can be in a 1/2 time tempo for my musicians to read easier.
    if the song sounds great at 100bpm, i want to compose it at 50bpm, so theres not that many rests, and other values harder to read.
    the only reason i need to do this is to make it easy to read for my readers, and remember , i can't read notation, just "midi blocks".
    sorry about the vague explanation, i just dont have the theory.

    Musical scores (which I assume you mean) don't work like that.
    There is no 'tempo' value like BPM.
    You just play the notes faster or slower - the time notation in musical scores has nothing to do with the 'speed' of the piece. It just tells the musician the 'type' of rhythm or pulse of each bar/section.
    This really isn't the place to go into Musical Score theory, but what you are asking doesn;t make any sense because you are comparing apples with pencils.
    What I think you are asking is that once you have composed your BPM arrangement then you convert this to a musical notation and that is where your problem is?
    If so, and again I am no expert, then simply reduce the BPm of the arrangement and then use the notation from that. Perhaps someone else understand what he is trying to do. After all if you are reading notation, that is all you are doing, reading notation. It's like a book with words, you can read them as slow or as fast as you like. There are no rules except the grammar and that is what the 'time signature' and notation is, just grammar.
    Does that make sense or have i really missed the boat here?

  • I have forgotten my password for my original MacBook and dont know how to reset it? Can you help me please?

    Can you please help me?

    Forgot Your Account Password
    For Snow Leopard and earlier
         Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
    For Lion/Mountain Lion
        Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
         Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
         instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
         Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and
         OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    If you are unable to boot from an installer DVD:
    (these will only work on Leopard or earlier)
      1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down
          the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
      2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each
          command line:
         /sbin/fsck -yf
         If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
         until you do.  If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
         message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
         mount -uw /
         cd /private/var/db/netinfo
         mv local.nidb local.old
         rm ../.AppleSetupDone
         shutdown -r now
    The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
    This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
    Reset Admin Password Using The Terminal
    You can reset the password by printing out (or writing down) and carefully following these steps.
    First, find the short name of the admin user on the machine. The easiest way of doing this is by looking at what the directory is called in the Users folder.
    Now, start in Single-user Mode. It should boot into a command line.
    Enter these exact lines. Press RETURN after each.
    mount -uw /
    ifconfig lo0 up
    cd /var/db/netinfo
    netinfod -s local
    Now you'll need that short name. Enter "passwd", a space, and the short name of the admin. For example, if the admin was rather prosaically called "imadmin", you would enter "passwd imadmin".
    The computer will now prompt you to change the password for "lmadmin" (or whatever the short name was). Go ahead and enter a new password.
    Now, enter:
    sync
    reboot
    and the machine will reboot. The admin password should now be changed.
    Another Terminal Method for Snow Leopard
    Reboot the computer and hold the COMMAND and S keys down to enter single user mode. (If a lock appears and a password request, there is a firmware password. You have to know it or take it to Apple.)
    When the prompt appears type the following command lines pressing RETURN after each:
        fsck -fy
         If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
         until you do.  If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
         message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
         mount -uw /  
         ls /Users
         passwd username
    Enter the new password twice. It will not be echoed.
    If this works then you will have to make modifications to your Keychain. See:

  • I have several e-pub documents in my Macbook. I had a Sony e-reader. Now I want to import these books in my I-pad. I don't not know how to do this. Can anyone help me?

    I have several e-pub documents in my Mac ook because I used a Sony e-reader. Now I want to import these books in my I-pad. How do I do this?
    The books are saved in the program Reader Library.
    Who can help me?
    Josje

    If the books are not copy protected (like the many free books at http://www.gutenberg.org), you just drag them into iTunes and can read them with the iBooks app.
    If you bought the books in the Sony Reader store via their Ereader Library application, they will have copy protection.  You can use the BlueFire Reader App on the iPad to read them.  It's a free app on the app store (http://www.bluefirereader.com/ipad.html). 
    When you launch BlueFire Reader, you will authenticate the app with Adobe.  This will be the password you used to purchase the books (either from the Sony Reader store or via Adobe Digital Editons).
    Instructions for moving the epubs from your library to the BlueFire reader are here (http://www.topicsites.com/ebooks-topics/bluefire-reader.htm).
    If you are on a mac, the books should be in your Documents, My Books, Reader Library.
    If your on a PC, it should be in C:\Users\yourusername\Documents\My Books\Reader Library

    Hi, I am new to you and I am having problems with my Windows Media. I ran a fix it test on it and it came back saying that the player is corrupt and can not read the dll. Plus I have gotten pop-ups saying the script on the page had quit running 2 or 3 times, that's what made me check it. I have Quick Time on here, I have never used it before. How do I properly go about making the the switch? Do I delite the Windows Media? Do I need to do anything to QuickTime other than just open it? Thank you so much for your time & help.

    When you say "account," do you mean your iTunes library, because your iTunes library is what is on your computer?  Your iTunes library does not have an email address.  An account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID (which is an email address) and you use it as your user name to sign in to the iTunes Store, to make purchases.  Changing your Apple ID will not make songs disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
    If you had an Apple ID and used it to make song purchases from the iTunes Store, and then started using a different Apple ID, you should be able to re-download the songs purchased with the old Apple ID.  In iTunes, sign in to the iTunes Store using your OLD Apple ID (and password).  That may not be your current email address, but Apple uses it as your user name, so it does not matter.
    On the iTunes Store Home screen, click on Purchased under QUICK LINKS.  This takes you do the Purchased screen, where you can re-download previous song purchases (for that Apple ID) at no cost. 
    NOTE:  If those song purchases are from more than a few years ago, you may also need to authorize your computer to play (and sync) songs for your old Apple ID. 
    For songs that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, if they are also gone, you cannot get them back unless you have a backup (or they are still loaded on your old iPod).
    If that's not what you mean by "changed the email address on my account," please post back with more details.
