Is there a way to automatically resize the text box to fit the text inside, without using the selection tool to resize the corners in Illustrator?

I'm wondering if there is a way where I can quickly resize a text box to fit exactly around the text inside, so pretty much the smallest the text box can go without being too small to fit the text? I know you can do this manually with the selection tool, but is there a button/command that automatically does this in one go?
Thanks

The short answer is No. But I see that Ray has given you an option.

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I would also recommend to write the description into the meta data. This would allow to place a text frame above the image and it is possible to add meta information and file name automatically together with the image, when you place it or even in a prepared template.
Meta data information can be written easily in Bridge in the Meta File Workspace.

Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

Is there any way of sharing my Macbook Pro's Wifi connection to iPhone 4 (Not Using iPhone as hotspot for laptop the other way around)

So a nasty smash destroyed both Front & Back of my iPhone 4, and since having them replaced the Wifi signal has been really weak.
I have seen other posts about screen replacement having to be done by going through the antenna, so something could be missing, or done incorrectly during the screen repair. Will definately be taking it back to the shop and finding out if It was put back together properly.
In the meantime I was wondering if it is possible to share my Macbook Pro's Wifi (always full signal in my house) directly to my iPhone either using USB cable or through bluetooth. It's not been too much of a problem but it would be nice to use my iPhone in bedroom using the Macbooks good signal.
Note: The replacement front screen on iPhone has a small gap >1mm between the screen and centre metal casing on the left side just above the Silent/Loud Switch, which can be noticed by light leaking through the gap. The metal casing also still has a small dent between the volume down buttons and silent/loud switch, again nothing drastic 1mm maximum

Here is the start of the setup:
Click on the Wi-Fi Options button and provide the needed info:
Click on the OK button. Now check the Internet Sharing box to turn it all on. If the port box you checked is no longer checked, then uncheck Internet Sharing, check the port box again, then check the Internet Sharing box again.

Is there a way to set an auto sync feature to icloud and windows contacts without using outlook or Windows live messenger just straight to windows contacts?

Need to sync icloud contacts to windows contacts without using outlook or windows live messenger on my pc, i have itunes and icloud fully set up on my pc and i have an ipad2. itunes setting for syncing to windows contacts is not working, nor will it sync to my gmail. I tried to get icloud to sync to my gmail, and thought that i could then sync my gmail to windows contacts, but icloud isn't syncing to gmail either. I configured it correctly, (or at least tried). I was able to copy the csv and all that, and do it manualy, but would like it to sync automatically. Please help.

No, you need Outlook.

Is there any way to restore data from an external drive to another external drive without using the macbook pro you backed up?

Is that I sold my macbook pro an the person who bought it needs it quickly so I have an external drive but it is not portable so I bought a portable external drive but it may take a while to arrive so I backed up my data with the external drive that I have in my house but I would like to know if I can restore my data to the new external drive without the macbook pro and just with the external drive of my house to the portable external drive.
Thank you

No, that's not possible. A computer is required in order to effect such a transfer. Connect both drives to your computer. You can use Disk Utility to clone one drive to the other. Be sure you first partition and format the new drive:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the new external drive. Source means the old external drive.

You can do that with a dynamic XFA form created in LiveCycle Designer, which comes with Acrobat Pro for Windows. For more information, you can ask over at the LiveCycle Designer forum.

Is there a way to automatically insert the filename in the footer of a spreadsheet using iWork's numbers 3.2?

Is there a way to automatically insert the filename of a spreadsheet into the footer when using iworks numbers 3.2? iworks 09 had this feature and I can't find this feature in the new version of numbers.

Hi rhyolite,
In Numbers 3.x, The Print View and Layout View have gone (for now at least). Page Headers and Footers can only be reached under Menu > File > Print... to open Print Preview. Hover the cursor to reveal the Page Header and Footer fields.
The only inserts that I can get to work in Print Preview are Page Number, Page Count and Date & Time. Filename is no longer in the Insert menu.
Regards,
Ian.

Is there a way to automate the CFX tags installation?

Hello,
I'm currently in the process of re-installing a web farm of ColdFusion 8 servers (W2K8, IIS 7.5).
I have to install a number of CFX tags (C++) on each server to get the code running.
Is there a way to automate the installation of the CFX tags (regedit imports, VBS, PowerShell...)?
I found some link indicating that keys should be imported in the registry at: HKLM\Software\Allaire, but Allaire does not even exist in this branch (I believe that the instructions were true of older versions of CF).
I installed one of the tags manually and noticed that the file neo-runtime.xml was updated with:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<wddxPacket version="1.0">
<header/>
<data>
    <array length="18">

Can I simply add the XML node to get it running?
Thanks in advance for any lead to the solution.

This is great! but I'm not there yet. I figured how to assign little midi triggered melodies to a touch track. I used to do stuff like this on an old Buchla years ago. How do I get the automation on the midi track to control the filter on an audio track? I created regions with the automation I want on a midi track, then I assigned those regions to keys with touch tracks. How do I get that to control the filter on the audio track?
thanks,
Lee

Is there a way to automatically backup the Airport Extreme Configuration file (.baseconfig)?

Is there a way to automatically backup the Airport Extreme Configuration file (.baseconfig).
I know (in hindsight) that I can manually export it from the Airport Utility, but ideally I would like to include it in my Time Machine backup. I had a situation where my Airport Extreme (3rd generation) just stopped working (no lights, no power). I had not exported the config file. I bought a new Airport Extreme (5th generation) and had to manually configure the new router.
Thanks

One option would be to use Automator and record the actions to run the AirPort Utility; save the configuration file to the desktop (or any other location you want), and then, close the utility. You can then either make this a part of your login startup programs. Time Machine then should be able to make backups.

Is there a way to automatically shrink images in an epub file to fit the visible screen?

Is there a way to automatically shrink images in an epub file to automatically shrink to fit the screen in Adobe Digital Editions? This happens automatically with the Kindle and I assume with the iPad and Nook as well. However, the large images in the epub do not automatically shrink to fit the Adobe Digital Editions viewer. Is this an issue with the software or the epub file?
Thanks

Hi Ken,
In my code i have something like that:
public static bool IsEmbeddedAttachment(Outlook.Attachment attachment)
//Anexos que não são embedded são obrigatóriamente olByValue, porém os embedded podem ser de qualquer tipo
if (attachment.Type != Outlook.OlAttachmentType.olByValue)
return true;
//Busca a propriedade contentID do anexo. Anexos embedded não precisam necessáriamente gerar um ContentID. Anexos fixos não geram ContentID
string strATTACH_CONTENT_ID = attachment.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty(@"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x3712001E").ToString();
//Busca a propriedade contentLocation. Para que o anexo seja embedded é necessario que essa propriedade esteja vazia ou nulla
string strATTACH_CONTENT_LOCATION = attachment.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty(@"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x3713001E").ToString();
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(strATTACH_CONTENT_ID) || !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(strATTACH_CONTENT_LOCATION))
//Busca a propriedade AttachFlag se for diferente de 4 é uma imagem embedded
if ((int)attachment.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty(@"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x37140003") == 4)
return true;
if ((int)attachment.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty(@"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x37050003") == 6)
return true;
if ((int)attachment.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty(@"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x37140003") == 4)
return true;
return false;
And was working very well until last week.
I have a problem with a single email. This email attachments possess 2 PDF type files. These files are not embbed in the email, but they have the contentId property. Could you tell me why? or if its possible discovery why this happens?
PS.: Sorry about my english.
