IPod function: fine-grained time movement

Maybe I just haven't gotten this figured out yet, but I'm having trouble moving ahead and back in audio with any precision.
With a standard iPod, I'm used to hitting the center button, and then being able to navigate exactly to the time in a podcast (or video or song or other item) that I want. It's very easy.
On the iPhone, in the iPod function, I know there are two ways to move forward and back.
One is to hold down the >| or <| buttons for a second or two so fast-forward starts. But this has a few drawbacks: The fast-forward or rewind functions take a while to kick in, and then they automatically speed up in a way that is a pain if you're shooting to move forward 30 or 45 seconds. First they move too slowly. Then they move too quickly. Also, if your touch isn't just right, they can be interpreted as a quick push and can take you to the beginning or end of the clip.
The other is to scrub by hitting the album art and then moving the revealed slider. However, this is a pain because in something like a 50-minute podcast, I can't figure out how to move forward or back by less than about a minute at a time. One can't just zero in on the time one wants.
Has anyone tackled this problem and made the iPod function on the iPhone behave more like a true iPod?
Thanks.

You have described the only two ways to move back and forth within a track. I certainly agree with you that a finer control, similar to the iPod, would be desirable, and I encourage you to pass your thoughts on to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

    Thanks for your attention.

    I didn't really (production wise)work yet with VPD. I know a lot is based on DBMS_RLS and I guess (IF it is VPD related) it should be to hard to find in the doc's how you could check what is beyond your privileges. As a DBA I noticed that even the dba account SYSTEM isn't always allow to export the full content for the tables anymore.
    There is a privilege that grants you all access that you need, despite the fact that you are not allowed to read certain rows from a table. Look it up.
    In all, as I said, it looks like account is not allowed to see all data from a table. In that respect it sounds logical that you also are, in that case, not allowed to build a function based index on that data

    Just sync the apps you want from your computer. You don't need to redownload them directly on the iPhone Purchased list.
    Will Apple be employing such a feature, a 'permanently delete/un-purchase' feature?

  • Fine Grained Access ERROR on INSERT when generating unique keys

    I'm using VPD/Fine Grained Access Control (FGAC) to implement security on my 9i backend. I created a security policy function that returns the predicate 'owner = USER'; - each of the tables has an additional column titled OWNER which contains the name of the logged-in user. Every time a user inserts a record, a BEFORE INSERT trigger fires (for every row) and inserts the USER name into the OWNER column. This is fairly straightforward and ensures that users can see only their rows. Using the DBMS_RLS.add_policy procedure, I attached the security policy to several tables and made it effective upon SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE statements.
    However, the frontend Java application (custom-made) generates unique IDs (sequences are not used) by selecting max(ID)+1 from the primary key columns of the tables. The problem is that the predicate is appended to the SELECT max(ID)+1 query to limit the max(ID) to only those rows where 'owner = USER'. Therefore, the max(ID) generated is not the largest ID for the entire table, but only the largest among the USER rows.
    So unless that USER happens to have the the largest ID in the whole table (and it has worked then), a primary-key violation error will be returned and the INSERT operation will be aborted.
    How can I allow every USER to select from AND get the absolute largest ID from the PK column without allowing that user to select records that don't belong to him? If I had developed the application, I would have made use of sequences on the back-end to generate unique primary key IDs. Unfortunately, I don't have this option and must work with the application as is.
    NOTE: the front-end Java application understands only the base table names, NOT Views created by me on the server. If the answer to this problem involves views, how can I make use of them on the backend when the front-end code does not recognize them?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Michael

    first you could use default column values, not a trigger, which is more expensive.
    if your apps already assumes full access to table to get max id ( another RT ), this is bad. Current RLS can not really help if you can not change the apps because of this flaw logic ( you can store the maxid anywhere, why scanning the whole table to find it )

  • Slow iPod function on iPhone 4S

    The iPod function on my iPhone 4S is running really slowly and being glitchy. It takes a while to open and forever to select a song or playlist (and sometimes instantly quits). Sometimes when I go to the list of playlists, sometimes it repeats one of the playlist names dozens of times. It is strange because the "loading wheel" at the top of the screen spins and spins like the phone is working really hard and using data to download something, but I'm playing songs that have already been downloaded from iCloud. I have tried restarting and quitting the application many times to no avail. I don't suspect phone damage because everything else runs perfectly! Any suggestions? Or should I just bring it in to the Apple Store to check for a hardware issue?

    I'm having the same issue, which just started within the past few days.  3G is unusable due to the slowness.  I've been in areas which I frequent every day, which USED to have great speed, and now are practically dead---so it's not location.  My phone is iPhone 4s, AT&T---so it's not just Verizon and their service.  Everything is fine in WiFi.  I've done everything except restore the phone. I've even uninstalled and reinstalled apps like FaceBook or Words With Friends to see if it was issues with the apps, but that was unsuccessful.

    Hi，
    So switch a LAN card fix this issue...seems a compatibility issue or maybe some packs or programs you installed recently cause this issue.
    Have you manually check the network adapter driver from the PC's manufacture website? sometimes, it will be a time delay before Microsoft push out the driver update.
    Check if issue exists in safemode with network, this mode will launch Windows with limited sets of files and drivers. 
    if you have a restore point, restore the pc to a previous point at which the pc is functioning fine.

  • Extras notes --- iPod works fine in iTunes, but doesn't show up in Windows

    Hi all!
    Gotta wierd situation.
    My iPod works fine in iTunes.
    I have had 'Enable for Disk Use' enabled for a long time. However, my iPod doesn't show up under My Computer on WinXP.
    I'd like to add some new Notes and remove some old ones, but you have to do that thru Windows, not thru iTunes.
    Any ideas how to fix this problem?

    hi marky!
    i noticed one thing. the iPod is formated as FAT32, but i have my HD in NTFS. could this be related?
    no, that one's normal. we need to leave her as FAT32. see:
    iPod no longer plays music after formatting or partitioning the hard disk
    hmmmmm. it's like the "enable disk use" setting is just refusing to stick for you.
    but maybe we've got a window of oppportunity while it's doing that initial sync. the rules seem to be different for you then.
    maybe try switching enable disk use off. then eject her, and plug her back in again (while you've got itunes already running).
    the second she shows up in the itunes sourcelist, try diving into the preferences tab, and re-enabling disk use.
    (i checked, and it's possible for me to do this with attractive beast ... hoping here that doing the "enable disk use" under these circumstances might get it to stick for you.)
    love, b

  • Should I use the fine-grained auditing?

    I need to record the changes (of data) made to serveral tables by users. For example, I have to check the before and after images of the changes and what kind of transactions they do to cause the changes. Sould I program the logging procedure in the application or should I use the fine-grained auditing function of oracle to do it. I am not sure what this built-in function can do for me. Can anyone give me some advice on this? Thks.
    A beginner

    Why Fine-Grained Auditing?
    You may want to check standard auditing if it is suitable for you
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14266/cfgaudit.htm#BABCFIHB
    I don't think you can get pre and post update values of the affected data with Auditing.
    FGA is useful when you want to audit just a "subset" of the data in the table.
    (for instance, audit everyone that wants to get all records from EMP table where SALARY > 100000)

  • Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11.

    Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11. The thumbnail of the movie shows but when selected only a exclamation mark appears.  I rebuilt the library, thumbnails, permissions etc. I also found the movie files in the iphoto database intact and working. Please advise.

    You're welcome.
    Well believe it or not, that's exactly what the exclamation point means. Search the forum. I've been doing this a while.
    Next, I have no interest, commercial or otherwise in Library Manager, I have no shares in the company that makes it. I didn't make it. It's not my software.  You could give those guys a million dollars and I'll get nothing from it. I and other expereinced users have recommended it thousands of times on this forum for this problem. Amazing how often it works. Of course, a quick search would have told you that already.
    Another: Believe it or not you can use the Rebuild Function of Library Manager for free. You don't need to purchase it for that purpose.

  • In-Pocket iPod Function Issues

    It's next to impossible to control the iPod function on the iPhone when it's in your pocket for a few reasons:
    1. It's very difficult to locate the forward/reverse function on the screen when the iPhone is in your pocket.
    2. It eventually locks, in which case you need to perform the additonal task of unlocking it without looking.
    3. The iPhone lays flat in my pocket. When it lays flat, it goes into cover flow. There aren't even forward and reverse functions in cover flow!
    This is a huge disadvantage when the iPhone is compared to the old iPods. My proposed solutions are:
    1. Create a software update which allows you to turn off cover flow (even though you'd still have a hard time finding the forward and reverse functions when the iPhone is in your pocket, and it still would lock).
    2. Put physical forward/reverse buttons on the next iPhone.
    3. I understand that Apple used to make earbud headphones with forward and reverse controls on them, but do they still make them? Even if they did, I don't like earbud headphones so that wouldn't help me.
    WDYT?
    PS - I don't like to turn locking off because if I forget to turn it off it stays on and drains the battery and heats up =(

    Happy to help.
    In addition, this cable has the button built in to use the click/double click functions. You can use it to plug into any pair of headphones you like so no need to use the buds.

  • Keynote fails to play quick time movies

    HI,
    I am trying to play a quicktime movie which I added to one of the slides. It starts out fine then the screen goes white but the control at the bottom of the screen shows that the movie is still playing. Some times you get the same white slide when you try to stop a movie while it is playing and drag the cursor back to replay a part of the movie again. Other quicktime movies do fine. And this quick time movie plays fine in quicktime. The white slide you get when you are trying to replay a section of quicktime movies can be fixed by going back one slide and and coming back to the movie slide and playing it again. If some one has a fix please let me know. I have seen this happen with other people using quicktime in keynote too.

    For instance if you go to this page again in Safari,
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf06/
    and then select "View Source" from the View menu, then press command-f to "find" within the page and search for ".mov"
    You will find this, which shows the url of the movie itself.
    <param name="href" value="http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/jan/mw2006/mmw_2006_650ref.mov">
    If you copy just this part:
    http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/jan/mw2006/mmw_2006_650ref.mov
    And open QuickTime Player, go to the File menu, select "Open URL" the movie will play.
    If you try the same technique on the page at the link provided by your client, it will allow you to bypass the html code that may be doing an outdated compatibility check and the movie may play. Or it may tell you that you are missing components (codecs, compressors etc.) in which case, post here again.
