IMovie 11, v.9.0.4, How do I keep clips in the same spot in the timeline?

So I have random video clips, and an audio track, recorded all from one music recording session. I want the audio in the background (I just dropped it in to the timeline as a background audio track) and I have various clips from different cameras that I want to drop in and keep sync'ed to the music.
Thing is, when I want to remove, say video clip 3 of 5 from the timeline, and I delete video clip 3, clips 4 and 5 now slide right up to clip 2, and the painstaking synchronization with the audio is lost.
How do I avoid this problem? Ideally the video would stay where it is, once I somehow 'lock' it in place in the timeline.
Thanks, and let me know if this makes sense.

Recently I went into iMovie and selected my iPhoto video imports. The audio use to work fine while reviewing them in the 'iPhoto Videos' pane in the lower right corner of the window. I could just place my pointer over a spot and hit my space bar and hear the audio for that clip. Now nothing! All my other clips imported from a camcorder work fine. The project's in the project section, that audio works fine. I can select a clip from the 'iPhoto Videos' pane and drag it up to the project area and the audio suddenly works there... but not down where I got it. I haven't changed any settings that I'm aware of. Like I said they worked fine a while back. So any ideas what the heck is going on? Oh I have a real old MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a) running it all. That might be the problem. I update when it calls for it but other than that... that's it. I'm glad it just still works!

iPhoto for iOS is no longer being offered by Apple and has been replaced by the Photos app. It is not compatible with iOS 8. This Apple document may help: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8 - Apple Support

Before the recent updates to Firefox, clicking on the back button always brought me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page. How do I restore the previous feature?

Before the recent updates to Firefox, when I would go to another page in the same window and then clickon the back button, Firefox used to bring me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page, meaning that I have to laboriously scroll down to the old place. How do I restore the previous feature?

That change was made in Firefox 4, 6 months ago.
Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button <br />
or <br />
right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.
Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored. <br />

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same window on the task bar?

How do I get IE 11 to open in the same spot on my task bar. i.e. IE 11 is on my task bar. When I open it, it opens in a new place on the end of the task bar. Microsoft Outlook, Windows Explorer, Quicken, Adobe, etc,, all on the task bar open
right at there location on the task bar; not in a new place at the end of the task bar.
How do I get IE 11, Windows 7, 64 bit to open at the same place as the IE icon???
Thanks

Hi,
Seems a strange issue, How about un-pin IE from the taskbar, then re-pin it to the taskbar for a test?
If doesn't work, I suggest you turn off IE 11 in "Turn Windows Features on or off", reboot PC, then re-turn on, check the result again.

How can I distinguish multiple tabs of the same site in the tab bar?

Hello,
I've been following some massive open online courses (MOOCs) and its been necessary to have several tabs open at the same time for the same site. I would like to be able to distinguish these tabs by being able to put a tag instead of the site url ('instructions', 'template', 'code', 'scratch', 'docs' etc. etc) and/or a colour code.
Does anyone know if and how this can be done?
Many thanks

This one colors tabs, but the author warns that it doesn't work with other tab-related extensions, so you probably need to keep searching for one that does everything you want:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/colorfultabs/
If you don't find a do-it-all extension, you can modify the tab titles with a userscript that is specific to that website. This is because the tab displays the text designated in the page as its title.
You either could "hard code" the list of words for each of the pages, or you could have a script extract information from the page, for example, the first main heading, or some other predictable bit of data. The script then would insert your preferred wording as the title of the page and Firefox will show that on the tab.
To see how that appears, so you know whether it would be useful, you could do this experiment:
On a web page that has useless tab text, open the Web Console using command+alt+k (Windows: Ctrl+Shift+k). In the line at the bottom next to the caret, paste the following code and press Enter:
document.title="Magic!";
If you decide you want a script written for this, you could try the request forum on userscripts''.''org:
[http://userscripts.org/forums/2 Ideas and script requests - Userscripts.org]
Although some people offer small payments, that usually isn't necessary to motivate people to help.
Let me give you a brief warning about that site, though: over the past year, a lot of popular scripts were duplicated and reposted with additional code that hijacks your Facebook account. Be cautious when installing scripts, check the reviews, make sure there are no references to Facebook.

I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID. So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account. Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

How to have projectname_edge.js in a subfolder? (not in the same folder as the project file)

Hello,
Is it possible to have the file projectname_edge.js in a subfolder? Not in the same folder with projectname.html.
It seems that edge.5.0.1.min.js looks for dependencies only in the same place as the main file of the project. Moving projectname_edge.js to other folder (js, script, etc) causes the animation not to run. Can I store it in different folder? I would like to put it into "Content" or "Scripts" folder on the server.
I am trying to integrate edge animation into ASP.NET MVC application, and I do not have any index.html file. I am inserting the  section into the view (the .cshtml file stored in subfolder). Having the projectname_edge.js in the main server path require to deal with security settings, so I would like to put it in 'Scripts'.
I found the video showing the solution for the older API: http://www.edgedocks.com/content/edge-animate-publish-files-and-js-folder but it is no longer valid with Edge 5.0 API
Any ideas how to achieve this?
Thank you in advance!
Eric

Thank You! This is exactly what I looked for!
Additionaly having runtime projectname_edge.js in htmlroot in ASP.NET MVC website, is slowing down the animation show up. Now (with subfolder) it working fast and fluid
Many, many thanks!

:GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR := :ITEM_CODE;
DO_KEY('exit_form');
But I don't know where to keep this assignment
:ITEM_CODE := :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR;
inside the caller form in which trigger do I have to use when it return from the caller form it should assign the :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR to the :ITEM_CODE and the cursor it should show inside the ITEM_CODE , and as I mention it does not return to the same location of The ITEM_CODE when it return from the calling form
Waiting for your valuable answer .

Soution: Delete the printer and add the same printer back in, therefore creating a new print queue.

In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

Hello,
Please make sure that the next button is pinned to the right side as there in the attached image.
If it is already pinned, you can try removing any embedded HTML code and checking it.

How to get a file in the same dir with the jar-executable

Hi,
I need to read/write a file that exists in the same directory with the jar-executable. How can i do that? I think that when i specify no path for the file, the file has to be in current path. (Is that right?)
Note: I do not know in which directory the jar and the file are.
Thanx in advance

When you specify no path for the file, the file has to be in the directory where the virtual machine was started. ( the directory the java command was invoked in .)
If you can't control the directory in which the vm is started, but you know the name of the .jar file you can do the following. This trick takes advantage of the fact that if you are using classes in a jar file, the name of the jar file must be in your classpath.
public static String getPathOfJar( String nameOfJar )
throws Exception
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(
System.getProperty( "java.class.path" ) ,
System.getProperty( "path.separator" ) );
String jarfile = "";
while ( st.hasMoreTokens() )
String token = st.nextToken();
if ( token.indexOf( nameOfJar ) > -1 )
jarfile = token;
break;
if ( jarfile.equals("") ) throw new Exception( "Jar not found in classpath" );
String path = jarfile.substring( 0 , jarfile.indexOf( nameOfJar ) );
return path;
//To open a file in the same directory as the sun archive tools.jar
File f = new File( getPathofJar( "tools.jar" ) + "someFile.txt" );
