Is there a way to use a bookmark from Maps as the home/work address of a contact?

I'm trying to use location-based reminders. But the Home and Work addresses I have in my own contact card are not recognized by Apple Maps.
Is there a way to use Apple Maps to set the Home and Work addresses in my contact card to something that it will be able to understand?
Edit: It doesn't have to be with Apple Maps. Google Maps or any other service where I can bookmark my "Current Location" would be fine. I just want an effieient way to use Location-based reminders when manually inputting an address is not an option, but locating it on a map is.

Unfortunately there is no way to do that current stage , you would need to add the tags manually.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Is there a way when using iTunes Visualiser, I can put the lyrics on screen?

Is there a way when using iTunes Visualizer, I can put the lyrics of the song i am playing on screen? It would be really cool.

I got it to work now by writing code to convert it back to an array. Thanks

Is there a way to use Automator or Applescript to launch the Mac App Store and download updates automatically?

As the subject indicates, I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to use AppleScript or Automator to launch the Mac App Store and download any available updates on a set schedule.

I would advise against this. Updates sometimes reduce functionality or break programs. I would never get an update with working software unless there is a specific problem you are trying to solve.
I have read many desperate posts from people trying to go back to earlier versions for various reasons. This is easy to do with disk-based software, but with downloaded software, going backward can be more difficult.

Is there a way to use your ringtones from iTunes in iMessage?

I have a lot of ringtones in iTunes that I use on my iPhone and I was wondering if I am able to use them on my iMessage on my Macbook as well? Also, is there a way to set individual notification sounds for individual contacts so that each one has their own ringtone? I do this on my phone. It would be cool if it worked on the computer as well.

Hi,
iChat and Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) had a pane in the App Menu > Preferences called Alerts.
This could see the Sounds in iChat (or Messages), the System Sounds defaults and anything you had stored in ~/Library/Messages and you could set any of these Sounds to any of the 17 actions as a global choice
As in Maverick if you highlight a Buddy in a Buddy List and then use CMD + i (Get Info) you could similarly set sound to individual Buddies.
You cannot do this in Mavericks/Messages 8 as the Alerts Pane have disappeared.
You cannot turn Off the sounds the app makes for the various different actions such as Video Invite or File Transfers.
You can no longer set individual Buddy sounds either.
There has not been a way to do this for iMessage Contacts.

Is there a way to backup my bookmarks from the bookmarks menu tab?

After recently having a problem reinstalling my old bookmarks, I'm now wondering if there is a easy way to backup my very recent bookmarks, when I enter my bookmarks from the menu tab? I don't see a link within the bookmarks tab to do so. It would be nice to see a specific link within the bookmarks tab to do such a function. Does anyone have any solutions, or know a way to quickly backup my bookmarks? Thank you.

Is there a way to use EXIF information from images in Muse?

I use Lightroom to manage my images. In Lightroom, I enter Caption metadata. (In the Lightroom Library, I enter data in the Caption field of the Metadata section.) Now I'd like use that Caption data to create an ALT tag in Muse. Is there any way to do that, short of copying the text from Lightroom and pasting it into Muse?
Here's why that wouldn't work for me. I have hundreds of images on my site. When I export images from Lightroom for my Muse site, I rename them. The names are generated by LR, so they're not consistent each time I generate them. Over in muse, that means I have to re-enter ALT tags every time I generate a new version of my slide show -- even if the images are the same. So what I'm looking for is a way to have Muse take the Caption data from each image's EXIF Metadata and use it to generate the ALT tag.
Can anybody think of a way to do this?
Thanks,
Jonathan

Is there a way to use/fix FLVPlayback skins provided with the product?

Some of the "skins" for the FLVPlayback component cannot be used as delivered in the Flash Professional CS5 package.
For instance, if you try simply to run the .swf file: MinimaSilverPlayBackSeekCounterVolMuteFull.swf in Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Flash CS5/Common/Configuration/FLVPlayback skins/ActionScript 3.0, you get the following error message:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class fl.video::UIManager could not be found.
Such a skin cannot be used in a published application (though it will work within the Flash IDE in Test mode).
Not all the skins have this problem. However, at least all of the Minima prefixed ones do. Of course the one I wish to use is broken. Is there a way I can fix this? If I try to publish the corresponding .fla (in FLVPlayback skins/FLA/Action Script 3.0 I get "Warning: unable to load SWC FLVPlaybackAS2.swc".

Well I don't really understand the position you are taking here. Did you try to run the examples I gave?
I will be a sport, though, and back up here and explain more fully.
I had originally built a rather trivial application to experiment with the FLVPlayback component. I did this with AS-3, by the way.
As I tried different skins I found, strangely, that when I used one of the Minima ones (for instance, the one that I listed several times above), that it would run fine in the IDE in test mode, however when I ran the published application it would not run correctly. It generated instead this error message about the fl.video class not being found.
In trying to determine the cause of this, I found that this same error would be generated, just by trying to run the Minima skin (swf) in the Flash player by itself. And sure enough those skins that did NOT have the problem with my trivial app also did not generate any error when the swf was run in the Flash player.
So, as you hopefully can see, I took my application out of the equation here. The question of interest is why do some of the unmodified swf skin files generate the class not found error and can they be fixed (or is there anything I can do to fix them) so that error does not happen. I had even tried to use the original FLA file for the skin (as I described in my earlier post) and recompile it. However that caused a compile error (listed in the original post) that is indicative of some AS2 being mixed in, possibly from some sub-component.
So I guess all I was hoping for was that you would try to run the AS3 Minima...swf skin listed earlier straight from the product installation. Just run it with the Flash player. If it doesn't generate the error for you then perhaps there is something odd about my CS5 installation, or environment, or ...
If you don't want to try this, that is your perogative. Perhaps someone else can/will. Or perhaps I can submit this as a bug? (I do not know the mechanism for that)
I am not trying to be argumentative here. Rather, I have tried to isolate the issue. I don't know how else I can make this clear.

I have an ipad and ipod nano. the laptop i used to load music to nano died, is there a way to load music purchased from itunes on the ipad to the nano?

my laptop died, is there a way to tranfer music purchased in ITunes from an ipad air to an ipod nano?

The only way to sync to a nano is to use an iTunes account on a computer.
When or if you get a replacement computer you can retrieve all of your purchased music (from iTunes) to sync to your nano

HT1689 Is there a way to use my credit from iTunes to purchase a in app item?

I purchased a iTunes card and thought I could use it for a purchase in the application. However not able to make it. Please explain if there was another way to make the purchase using the credit from my iTunes account.

Yes except i would like it to look like the itunes album artwork screen saver does. the itunes album artwork screen saver shows a bunch of squares and when one of the boxes changes it spins and goes to the next album artwork
what you have indicated above is kind of like a slide show where it shows you one of your pictures and zooms out to show you a collage version of another one of your pictures. i would like it to be formatted similar to the way the itunes screen saver is.
if you click on itunes artwork on the same menu as shown in your last post, you will see what i am trying to achieve.

HT203519 Is there a way to recover my bookmarks from the cloud that were deleted in a sync from another browser?

I've had by bookmarks synced for years across my browsers with no problems. I recently purchased a new PC and added the iCloud interface to sync my bookmarks with Firefox and now they are gone, Firefox because the dominate list instead of downloading from the cloud. Hoping those bookmarks from a previous date are still there to download.

Unfortunately if your backup is password protected you can't extract data from it without the password. There are programs that will extract data from an iPhone backup, but not if they it is password protected. (This is actually a good thing since it protects your security.) My suggestion is that you make a copy of this backup to a save location somewhere else on your computer so you can restore to it in the future to recover you photos should you remember your password later. If you leave it there, the next time you sync your phone it will overwrite the backup and will never be able to get it back.

I accidentally deleted the awesome bar. How do I get it back? Also, is there a way to bring my bookmarks from explorer into firefox? Thank you.

I downloaded firefox to replace explorer. When I did, I accidentally removed the awesome bar. How do I get it back?
Also, I would like to bring over all of my bookmarks from explorer. Is that possible?
Thank you.

In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

Is there a way to send errors to Apple Maps on the computer?

Everyone's complaining about it, so I decided to start adding points of interest in my town, but entering all the information is sloooow on the touchscreen. I'll volunteer some time if I can use my good ol' QWERTY. So... is there a way to access Apple Maps on a full-size computer?

Is there any way to downgrade to 3 from 4 without the shsh blob

I recently updated my itouch 2g to os4 and then found out that one of the apps I had won't run on 4. I didn't save the shsh prior to the upgrade so I'm guessing there is no way to downgrade. Does anyone know if it is possible without the shsh blob?
thanks

Alternatively, check for updates to the App. If not, contact the App's developer to ask if and when there will be an update for it that will cause it to work with iOS4.
It's odd though, that an App should stop working after an update to the Touch's firmware. You'd think the App's developer would sort that out very quickly.

Is there a way to take an incoming call by pressing the Home button?

Hi all,
It's winter here in Paris, as in the rest of the Northern Hemisphere, and well, we wear gloves, you know? Mine are made of wool, and when I receive a phone call on my iPhone 4, I have to take at least one glove off to take it. Is there a way to set the Home button or any other physical button on the phone to act as a "Take call" button? I've been looking in the phone settings but came up empty.

Guys, guys... (sigh)
Now, let's be constructive, shall we...?
Malcolm, I see you live in a country even colder than mine, so maybe you're speaking from experience!
No, seriously, wjosten put it plainly: save from jailbreaking my phone, there doesn't seem to be a solution to my "problem". I'm not quite ready to jailbreak my phone yet, but I'm getting closer every day. I love that phone, but there are so many built-in limitations that I'm on the brink of doing it.
Now, this said, it would make for a nice improvement in future versions of the iPhone: let the user set one of the physical controls to take calls.
(As for buying those gloves you guys mention, I like my wool gloves just fine. Plus they're a gift from a loved one)

Is there a way to use an external display while keeping the Macbook open?

I'm trying to use my external display as my primary (and only display). I would be operating in clamshell mode, but this can lead to overheating issues. Is there an easy way to leave the Macbook open but turn its screen off manually when another display is connected?
I've found that by closing the macbook, plugging in a mouse, waiting for the macbook to start in clamshell mode, and then opening the display, I can do this. Is there an easier way (i.e., an option to tell the macbook display to turn off)

could you not just connect it with the vga adapter and then turn the brightness of your screen all the way down so there is no light? i had to do that for my ibook g4 when i cracked the lcd, but thankfully i have my macbook now.
