I think this should be a simple question

I doing a slide show of 20 slides and need them to be 20 seconds long. All my slides are done and I am having a bit of a hard time finding where I can set the timing per slide. I've got some builds on a few slides. Those are the only ones that stay up longer.
Seems simple enough. Apple just works...right?
This is for Pecha Kucha night.

Greeting and Welcome to the Forum:
In the Inspector > Slide > Transition menu, after you designate the Effect you want for the Transition, set the Start Transition window to Automatic and the Delay to 20 seconds. For those slides with Builds, you may need to adjust this Delay setting to achieve the pacing that you desire. With a little trial-and-error you should be able to get everything flowing properly.
Good luck.

On those sites that do not differentiate between CRT, laptop, tablet etc. such as an iPad Mini and using the Facebook site fir example when going to post a comment and you do not have a enter button on the IPad and the speed is slow how do you get your comments to post if we do not have a enter button?

I am still having issues with the TOC. I finally got several chapters and sections to show different pictures in the TOC, but have spent hours trying to figure out how to repeat it. This should be so simple. Is there an update? Please help us Apple.

I am still having issues with the TOC pictures. I got several chapter/section photos to show up, but can't seem to repeat this success. It is some mystery that happened during a time that I had practically given up. This should be such a simple thing. Drag and place a picture into the placeholder and it shows up in the TOC....right? Help, help help! want to get this thing done and it's taken two days of work just get some of the photos to show up. I am going to have to publish this ibook with no photos in several sections.....why can't this be simple? I have even had someone else spend hours trying to figure this out. This software is such a GREAT idea....come on...help with this little part of it.

I had the same problem myself. I got to the point where I couldn't replace the photo, of a new chapter, in the TOC. What I did was to duplicate an existing chapter that was working and was able to replace it's TOC's photo. I also found that if you try different areas of the photo you can sometimes get it to replace correctly. For example, instead of dragging the new photo to the middle of an existing photo, try dragging it to the right top corner.

This is a very simple question,but I don't know.Please me.Thank you!

I am a Chinese student in a university.I have a very simple question to ask.
I have writed a EJB module,and I have deployed to Weblogic8.1 successfully.
1.Now I want to write a client program.Is it necessary that the client program is packaged in the EJB package.For example ,the EJB package is Beans,is "package Beans " or "import Beans.*" necessary in my client program.
2.If I only know the EJB interfaces,that means the EJB module is writed by other programer.I want to know how I can write the client program.How can I call EJB module's method writed by other programer.Could you give me a simple example?
Thank you very much.

This should be a simple answer to a simple question.

Hey gurus,
I've looked all over this Forum and the JDeveloper 9i tutorial but I can't figure out how to disable the picklist box from my resultset. The searchable object is assigned to "MessageChoice" for the search option but that picklist value shouldn't be showing up in the resultset. I've tried all reconfiguring many of the options in the Property Inspector but nothing works.
Thanks,

Handling events in subvis - think this should work but it doesn't.

In part of a large project I need to handle key down events, but elsewhere I need to handle them differently and want to be able to dynamically register and unregister them in each location. I also want to be able to put one of the event handlers in a subvi. To quote the Help system, "Dynamically Registering Events: With dynamic registration, you can handle events in a subVI rather than only in the VI where the events are generated."
ViThatHandlesEvents.vi handles key down events. It uses dynamic event registration to demonstrate that it works (though in this simple example it isn't necessary).
ViContainingSubviThatHandlesEvents registers key down events and passes this to KeyDnEventHndlrSubVI. I thought it would work but it doesn't.

Here's a version with Panel > OwningVI > Key Down selected in the nodes that register events. It seems to do what I want. It acts on keystrokes that occur when the cursor isn't even over the parent's window, which is good in my situation. I made these choices by experimenting - is this a good approach, if I want to act on all the keystrokes that occur when the parent VI has focus?
As you noted, this will have the event structure respond to keypresses whenever the parent VI is active. You can simplify the subVI by simply wiring the "VI Refnum" terminal directly to the Register for Events node. Getting the Panel, and then the Owning VI simply gets you back to where you started.
That's a valid way of doing it, and I'm assuming that this is intended to be a test case. As you noted you have a large project, so I don't know what your overall architecture is, or how you intend to use this technique, so I can't really say whether it's a "good" approach. It's an approach.
Say, I should have said this before, but you have to be pretty good to answer the question somebody should be asking, especially in brief forum postings.
Thanks for the compliment. It's just a matter of seeing a lot of code and a lot of questions. I'm only a teenage pup compared to the real veterans on this board.

My laptop continues to close down Safari unexpectedly. It is relatively new {MacBook Air purchased June 2014} and I don't think this should be happening. Is there something wrong? How do I fix this?

How can this be fixed if it can be fixed? No bugs or viruses are on the computer as far as I know. All other applications work perfectly on the laptop, so it is strange that the Safari continues to closedown. I can use Safari and it does work for the majority of time, but there are times when the Safari closes out.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

using the usb 9171 chassis and a ni-9411 module and Labview 2012
I have one reflective optical reader wired to the 9411.
this is mounted to the side of a conveyor bed to detect boxes passing by
I've been trying to setup a VI to count the number of boxes that pass by the optical reader (that part is the easy part) but to also give me a gage that tells me boxes per minute (which could be as low as 1 box passes by per minute or up to 60 boxes per minute)
any help??

You could set up a frequency measurement task to do this.
The tricky part is that the read is a blocking call--it waits until you have a sample available which only happens when a box passes by (starting with the 2nd box, the frequency measurement is computed by inverting the time between consecutive boxes). You don't want to be stuck inside the DAQmx Read call for up to 1 minute. A few ways to go about this:
You can set the read timeout to some low value and discard the timeout error (-200284). If you're using too much CPU you might need to add a wait to your loop in the timeout case (or maybe this is one of the rare times that setting the DAQmx Read Wait Mode to "Sleep" might actually help).
You could poll the available samples per channel property to see when to read, but unfortunately polling available samples per channel does not query the onboard FIFO or initiate a transfer back to the software buffer (last I checked), so you'll be reading "0" for quite some time until the on-board FIFO starts filling up, at which point a large chunk of data will be transferred back to the DAQmx buffer in PC memory at once. Note that this does not apply to PCI/PCIe DAQ devices which transfer data to the PC buffer pretty much as soon as possible--USB and Ethernet devices try to minimize the overhead of unnecessary data transfers but in this case it is a hindrance.
Using the DAQmx Every N Samples event has the same problem as #2.
Reading -1 samples returns whatever is in the DAQmx buffer in PC memory, so it also has the same problem as #2 (the read will return 0 samples until the hardware decides to transfer the data over to the PC).
In your case, you might have luck with #2, #3, or #4 by setting the CI.DataXferReqCond to "Onboard Memory not Empty", but without being able to validate any of these workarounds I think I'm just going to recommend you use suggestion #1:
You can either run this task in addition to your current edge count task (there are 4 counters on the 9171 which should be plenty given you can only have 1 module), or you can run it instead of it (poll back the Total Samples per Channel and add 1 to determine the count of boxes, however you wouldn't be able to distinguish between 0 and 1 boxes this way since the first sample is returned after the 2nd box passes).

John Passiak

"i know this may be a simple question...but"

I just received my iPod classic yesterday, and when i went to plug it into the computer the register now or later screen came up. I pressed later. The next screen was the terms and agreements, and I pressed the checkbox that i agreed with them. The only problem is my iTunes won't allow me to reach the agree box to click to continue. There is no horizontal scroll bar and i still can't see maybe 1/4th of the page. I've tried about everything, and the answer may be simple. I'm just looking for help. Thank you.

Set your screen resolution to at least 1024x768.
See this -> iTunes window does not display all options

This is a very simple question about multi-channel audio playback

I have an mp4 file that i made and i made it 7.1 surround sound, and i'm pretty sure that this 7.1 surround sound works, as it can be played in VLC. i'm using netstream to load my files now. How do i make it so that flash can playback all 8-channels of sound? I suppose kglad would know the answer

Flash doesn't support multi-channel audio (yet?)

i cant seem to figure it out.
Hi everyone!
I am working on a spreadsheet to help keep track of my finances but cannot figure out one very important formula. Heres an example of what i want to do. In cell A1, I've got the balance of my auto loan. In column C I've got a drop down menu of various bill; in the adjacent column i enter the amount I've paid towards that bill for that month. So when I select "Auto Loan" from the pull down menu, i want it to subtract the amount in the adjacent column from the amount in A1. I've tried using the VLOOKUP formula, however, this only returns one value, even when there is more than one cell with the matching criteria. I need it to return the sum of these cells.
Can anyone help? Thanks! Rob

Hi,
I'm not sure how your table is formatted, but I thought this might illustrate a solution. I'm assuming that columns C contains all manner of daily expenses, food, clothing gas utilities, etc. I'm also assuming you are interested only in the "current" balance of you car payments, not intermediate balances from the initial amount. The formula is:
=Auto Loan Balance Initial Balance-SUMIF(Expense,"Auto Loan",Monthly Payment)

Hi,
When searching in Mac how what are wildcards? For instance I'm using the search tool to search for all files that are greater than 100Mb. I've clicked the plus button and put the file size criteria in, however I can't make it search for all files, I have to put in each individual character.
Cheers,
Phil

Works fine for me on my machine. Press Command-F in the Finder, a search window will appear. Press the + button until you see an entry for "Size". Then click the - buttons for all the other criteria except for the "Size" one. So now you should only have the "Size" one showing. Change the "equals" popup to "is greater than". Type 100 into the text field to the right of the, now, "is greater than" popup. Then change the "KB" popup to "MB". It should automagically start searching and returning results for files greater then 100MB. Hope that helps.

This should be a simple AFP script..but no..

Ultimately I'm trying to write this script to turn AFP on when it suddenly shuts off. However, I thought I would start easy and just use an echo command for the then statement.
Anyway, if I use the spaces by the "=" in the "if" statement, then the script just exits and does nothing. However, if i take the spaces out, the script always does the then statement, regardless if the "if" part is true or not.
So what am I doing wrong?
#!/bin/sh
if [ ps cx | grep AppleFileServer = "" ]
then
echo Not On!
fi
exit
Thanks!!

#!/bin/sh
if [[ `ps cx | grep AppleFileServer` = "" ]]
then
echo "Not On!"
fi
exit 0
I made 4 changes. The double square brackets in the test statement, the backticks around the ps|grep, double quotes on the echo string, and a 0 for the exit status. The tab in front of the echo statement is just for aesthetics.

Okay.... this should be very simple

when i click on a text file... .php or .tcl or .c or whatever.... when i click on the source file i want it to open in a new console window in vi ....
except from the command line i can;t even FIND vi or vim or gvim on this box...
so, how do i associate text files with a given extension with vi (or the mac equivalent) so i can get some work done????

The extension is of little relevance in Mac world. Find the file you want to open, Highlight it. Cick cnd+I. In the box that opens, down click the Open With triangle. Either select the applicatrion you want, or navigate to the application you want to open this. Thyen, hot "Change All.
Is this what you want. I really have no idea what all the extensions are.

I think this should be a simple question
