Is there a way to customize Automatic Import?

I really like this feature, but is usually reaches a certain cut in the mini DV it doesn't like, and stops/rewinds. I get back to my iMac with a "38 minutes of video were imported" message for a 60 minute tape.
Is there a way to tweak the 'automatic' setting so that it plays the entire tape? I like 'rewind; import; rewind', but it's a pita to have to cue through an entire tape to find the spot that wasn't imported the first time...

If you aren't doing this already, it is good to forward the tape all the way to the end manually, then rewind it all the way manually. Tapes get out of whack after being stored, and you can increase the chances of a clean import by doing the forward-rewind bit. Saves time in the long run.

Try Folder Cleaner - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Is there a way to customize the web form link in Adobe FormsCentral?

The dedicated link has a quite complicated address, not easily added to brochures to hand out. Is there a way to customize the web form link in Adobe FormsCentral?

It cannot be customized. The workaround is to create your own web page and embed our form into it. That way they only see your URL.

Is there a way to customize categories in the pop-up menu on the Transactions page for Personal Budget without having to do it one by one?

I want to use the Personal Budget template but customize my own categories. I can change the categories on the Budget sheet and know how to add the new data to the graphs but I am having trouble on the Transactions sheet. I know when I click on a cell in the category section there is a drop down menu of catefories that I can edit in the data format option but do I have to do this for every cell? Is there a way to edit for all cells at once? Everytime I add a new cell its has the original categories and I would hate to have to format each one individually.

Set up one with the categories you want in the order you want.
Select the cell and press option-command-C to copy the format (style).
Select the cells you want to change and press option-command-V to paste the format (style) to those cells.
If all body cells in a column have the same style (in this case, 'same list'), added rows will adopt that style.

Is there a way to speed up importing of songs?

When I am importing CD's, it seems extremely slow at times. The display shows 1.0X, and I am guessing that means if the CD is an hour, it is going to take an hour to import? Is there a way to speed this up?
When I posted this question before, the only reply I got was some guy asking about my processor speed. That is not relevant as I do not have ability to improve on that at this time. My question is to ask if there is a way to speed up importing by changing a setting.
I am trying to understand why some CD's go lightening fast, and some take over two hours to import one CD.....same machine.
Any help you can offer is appreciated!!

Not much you can do, but here's some of what you have control over:
Bitrate: Higher bitrates take longer to rip.
*Disk Cleanliness*: Dirty, smudged, scratched CDs take longer to rip.
*Error Correction*: If activated, the iTunes error correction will add ripping time. You may not need it, and I think by default it is not activated. Check to see at: Edit/ Preferences/ Advanced/ Importing/ Error Correction.
*CD/DVD ROM vs. Read-Write*: I've noticed that my DVD ROM drive rips much faster than my DVD RW. If you have multiple drives, try a different one.
In the end though, the limitation will be your hardware (CPU, CD/DVD drive, perhaps RAM)

Is there any way to customize a repeat event in iCal on my iPad?

On my old MacBook, I was able to customize a repeat event, I.e., plan a recurring event for the first Thursday of every month, as opposed to the first of every month. I am attempting to switch to my new iPad, and cannot seem to find the function in iCal where I can do this. Is there a way of doing this on the iPad? Or is the iPad less useful in this way too?

You can't customize events like you can in iCal on the Mac - so using your words, I would say that the iPad is less useful in that regard.

Is there a way to automatically return to homepage after closing other windows/files/tabs etc.? Was able to do this on Mini, but have been unable to find setting to do it on new iMac. Thanks in advance!

If you were able to do it on the Mini you should be able to on an iMac, they use the same versions of OS X. You just have to recall how you set it up.

Is there a way to customize the IDE font?

Hi,
I'm trying to tweak the JDeveloper IDE so that I could specify the font for the menus and dialogs, which seems to be the default 'sans-serif';
I know, it's the least annoyance you can have, but, however, if there's a way to do it plz let me know.
Thx, P.

Hi,

I know, it's the least annoyance you can have, but, however, if there's a way to do it plz let me know.JDeveloper gets these fonts from the Swing Look And Feel, so there's not a way to customize it.
Rob Thx for hinting me where to search... :) Indeed, I wanted to modify all the Swing Look and Feel fonts, for any Java app that would use it.
It suffices to modify the font.properties file in the %JDeveloper installation folder%\jdk\jre\lib folder and to replace "Arial" with the desired font where desired... I replaced f.e. all Arial except Arial Black with Tahoma.
For Windows users, use Wordpad instead of Notepad, it handles Unix-style line ends better.
BTW, for seamless integration with Windows current theme settings, there is an article at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/swing/1.4/w2k_props.html,
that should work too
Thanks, Paul

Is there a way to customize MFMessageComposeViewController?

Hi All,
I have a requirement to customize MFMessageComposeViewController.
Is there any way out?
Or, we create custom message composer and send the message through MFMessageComposeViewController in the background?
Or, is there paid API for that?

Is there a way to Customize a div Scrollbar Width or Appearance

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to customize standard a div scrollbar width or appearance. Any sort of customization would be helpful.
Thanks for your help!

Can you upload a little example to box.com?
I'm trying to implement slimScroll, perfectScrollBar, or tinyScrollBar but do something wrong because it does not work me.
The reason is that in mobile devices, native scroll bars of Edge work slowly and without inertia (you can test in http://www.VolGastronomic.com).
Thanks.

Is there a way to customize the MDM Workflow email notification content?

I am looking for a way to customize the MDM Workflow email / notification content. For example, I might want to put the Supplier ID(s) of the impacted supplier records (be it Update, Insert & Delete) into the email body or put an URL into the email body.
Can MDM Workflow do this?
Is there any workaround?
Thanks

Hi,
What you can do is add a boolean field to the repository, for instance "Send Mail". You can use an assignment in the Workflows to set this field to true. Next, define an updatelistener and pick up the change to this field. If the value is "true", send out an email. Afterwards, let the listener change the value back to "false".
Good luck,
Gerwin

Is there a way to customize keyboard shortcuts in applications?

Some applications allow keyboard shortcuts to be customized, usually in preferences, but I'm wondering if there's a way to customize keyboard shortcuts in apps that don't have this feature built in.

from Apple's OS X Help Menu:
Create keyboard shortcuts for apps
Assign your own keyboard shortcuts to menu commands in any OS X app, including Finder. This might be useful if a global shortcut, which works the same with most apps, conflicts with a specific app shortcut. In this case, you could assign a different key combination.
You can only create keyboard shortcuts for existing menu commands. You cannot create keyboard shortcuts for general purpose tasks such as opening an app.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Keyboard.
Open Keyboard preferences for me
Click Shortcuts, select App Shortcuts, then click Add (+).
Click the Application pop-up menu, then choose an app. If you want to set the same key combination for a menu command that appears in many apps, choose All Applications.
If the app you want to select doesn’t appear in the list, choose Other, then locate it using the Open dialog. Some apps may not allow you to set keyboard shortcuts.
Type the menu command for which you want to set a keyboard shortcut in the Menu Title field.
You must type the command exactly as it appears in the Application menu, including ellipses and any other punctuation. To type an ellipsis, use three periods without spaces.
Click in the Keyboard Shortcut field, press the key combination that you want to assign to the menu command, then click Add (+).
You can’t use each type of key (for example, a letter key) more than once in a key combination.
Quit and restart any apps you’re using for the new keyboard shortcut to take effect.
If you assign a keyboard shortcut that already exists for another command or another app, your new shortcut won’t work. Find the menu command that’s using it, then reassign the keyboard shortcut for that item.
To remove a customized shortcut, click Delete (–).

Is there a way to customize the toolbar/ruler in TextEdit? i.e. add buttons

I've become so annoyed by various aspects and quirks of MicrosoftWord that I'm trying to wean myself off it and migrate over to TextEdit as a simpler, faster and more stable day-to-day default word processing program.
In TextEdit's "Rich Text" mode, with the ruler/toolbar showing, there are only a few standard drop-down menus and buttons: Styles, Paragraph-align, Spacing and Lists. Is there a way to add new buttons or drop-down menus to this default selection? One of the few nice things about MSWord is that one could customize the toolbar. I'd expecially like to add simpler font-formatting buttons like "Strikethru" and font-sizes to TextEdit. I realize these things can be accessed via the "Fonts" floating window (command-T), but that's a whole extra keystroke and having to reach across the screen.
I presume there isn't a way to add these custom formatting buttons, but I just wanted to make sure.
