Some progress on second idea. Saved a copy of universal access plist with cursor set to large then set the cursor to small again. Replacing the plist file had no effect until I went into the UA pane and changed a setting at which point it must rewrite the file and refresh because the cursor size also changed at this point.
Tried the same again and restarted Finder, no effect. Also tried altering another pref pane instead with no effect. Need a way to force the computer to look at the plist files, no idea how though. :-)

Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own?
Yes, it is possible. 1 apple ID can be associated with up to 10 devices.
If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps?
Yes, all purchases are non-transferable.
How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two?
Every device associated with one apple ID through Find my iPhone is tied to that Apple ID; Find my iPhone will work in the same way with up to ten devices associated with one apple ID. You cannot enable Find my iPhone for one device across two apple IDs
I am going to be going off to college soon should I make an itunes id for my self and how will I get all the music from the old id?
If you have authorized a computer with the old apple ID, you can transfer old media purchased through the old to other devices via iTunes. This doesn't mean the media purchases through the old apple ID it transferred to the new account. If you plan to make future purchases and don't wish to share them with others, make your own apple ID.

Is it possible to have podcasts being played in chronological order instead of reversed chronological order in an iPod Classic?

Is it possible to have podcasts being played in chronological order instead of reversed chronological order in an iPod Classic? It is not an issue, just something that irritates me as I want to be able to listen to them in chronological order.

Yes, but you need to make a custom playlist to do so. There is no option on the classic to reverse the playback order.

Still possible to have consolidated Library view in iTunes 11 ?

Hi,
In prior versions, it was possible to view a "Library" view which would include all media (Music, Movies, Podcasts, etc) by following these commands? I don't want to screw anything up !
This is taken from an article appearing in MacWorld, which I have used safely in the past.
Quit iTunes if it’s running, open Terminal (in Applications -> Utilities), and enter these two commands (the $ is just the prompt; don’t type that), pressing Return after each:
$ defaults write com.apple.iTunes show-library-playlist -bool TRUE
$ defaults write com.apple.iTunes hide-library-playlist -bool FALSE
Note that the second command may not be required—on one of my machines, this trick worked after only running the first command. On a second machine, however, I had to use both commands.
Now restart iTunes, and notice the new Library entry in the Library section of the iTunes side panel. Click on it, and you’ll see that it contains absolutely everything—music, TV shows, movies, podcasts, etc.—in iTunes.

Sorry, thanks for your reply, but you missed the point.
The commands allowed a consolidated view named "Library" which sat at the top of the Library list above Music.
It contained ALL of the media, not matter which catagory it was filed under. Very helpful for organizing, etc.
This was actually a hidden preference in iTunes, hence the abiltiy to make it appear via the terminal command.

Is it possible to have your system preferences saved as a profile?

I have hooked my Mac up to my 40" TV. I'm using a clever little box that combines the minidisplay port and toslink into an HDMI output. However, I would like different settings in preferences depending on which display I'm using. For example I would like the dock, icons and cursor a bit bigger and optical audio output for the TV, but normal sized and analouge out for my usual monitor. Since I'll never be using both at the same time (I only have the one head) I'd like to be able to save my system preferences into 2 profiles and select between the 2 rather than manualy changing everything each time. Is this possible? It seems like it should be but I can't find a straight forward way to do it.
Two potential solutions spring to mind, first use different users for each display and switch between the 2 but this is far less than ideal. Secondly, set up for one display and save copies of the relevant plist files, then set up for the second display and save again then use a script/automator action to switch between the 2 and restart Finder. Although I have no idea about the technicalites of the second solution. All help appreciated.

ITunes on External Drive - Possible to have smart playlists sync automatically to internal storage?

Hey guys,
As the title says, I've got my entire iTunes library stored on a desktop external hard drive. Of course, when I need to take my computer anywhere, it's got no music on it.
I have the majority of my iTunes library rated, and have a bunch of smart playlists set up.
Is there any way I could set up a smart playlist and have that playlist be stored (and referenced, I don't want to have to hunt the folder down every time I launch iTunes) on my internal hard drive? Maybe with automator?
It's also important to me that all my metadata (play/skip counts and dates) remains untouched, otherwise I loose all my smart playlists.
Thanks!

I just stumbled upon an app called tunespan. It's $15, and I'd rather not spend that, but if it works for what I need that'd be great.
Any ideas about this app?

Possibility to have your own icons in JTree depending on what node

Can you specify your own icons in a JTree? With this I mean more than your own directory/leaf icons. For example, if you have a family tree, you might want different icons for sons and daugthers etc.

I did like you said, and it works, almost.
I use the following code to find out what type my nodes in the tree are. I can just look at my NodeInfo object to get that. But when I click at different nodes in the tree, other nodes than the clicked one changes icons.
DefaultMutableTreeNode node =
               (DefaultMutableTreeNode)tree.getLastSelectedPathComponent();
          NodeInfo selectedNode = (NodeInfo)node.getUserObject();Edit: Also tried this code but that gave me:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String
     at gui.MyTreeCellRenderer.getTreeCellRendererComponent(MyTreeCellRenderer.java:26)
DefaultMutableTreeNode node = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)value;
          NodeInfo selectedNode = (NodeInfo)node.getUserObject();Message was edited by:

Is it possible to have your iphone hooked up to two computers

Is it possible to work on itunes from two computers

No. Only the computer it was originally synced with.
Is it a replacement computer for the other?

ITunes 11... I have multiple artists with the same album name... how do i have them show up as separate albums?

I have itunes 11 with iTunes Match on 2 Macs and 2 ios devices... I know it all has bugs... but I have been ok.
I am wondering how to show my library in the column browser view when I have multiple albums with the same names? I have noticed on my ipod in my car that an album titled "Christmas" plays and includes 2 different albums titled christmas... and in itunes it lists them both when not in the artwork view... (I primarily use the column browser to navigate my library.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this/knows how to fix.
Thanks!

Various workarounds I can think of which basically involve playing around with tags. See which meets your needs or come up with others:
Give the albums slightly different names. For example, "Greatest Hits" [ABBA]"
Do the same but do it in the sort album field.
Add a bogus disc number to different albums. It may string them together still but at least they will be slightly grouped.

Is it possible to have the "single view" (Einzelseite) as the default view in the preview.app?

The single view is the only setting I need and I find it cumbersome to dig inside menues for every single document. It would be great if there was an option or maybe a property that can be set.
Thanks!

And another comment: The save trick does not work for documents you cannot write. For instance I have a latex documentation on my machine and I cannot save these documents since they belong to root. So it would be great to make this configurable for the user.
Thanks!

Is it possible to put albums by name into a playlist instead of a list of individual songs?

I'm creating playlists on my IPod Touch but when I move an album into the playlist all I get is a list of the songs. I'd like to be able to select the name of the album from the playlist. Is it possible, and if so, how?

Shane B,
I have the same model iMac with the same problem screen.
It's the LCD panel that is defective,(at least in my case).
You can validate this by getting a mini DVI adapter to connect the iMac to an external screen and test it on your HDTV or on any external screen.
Get the proper adapter from Mini DVI to what you have on the external screen or TV (HDMI, DVI, VGA)
and a cable to connect it and see if the image on the external screen or TV is OK.
In my case, my iMac was sitting on a shelf for two years before I thought of trying this.
I am now using it as a media server linked to my HDTV.
I ended up opening the iMac case to disconnect the LCD so I would not have to look at the ugly defective display sitting right next to my HDTV.

Is it possible to get your crediti card cloned at ITunes?

I have my credit card cloned this second semester. Since I use it all onver the place, I didn´t think it was due the registration on ITunes. Now, in november, I got my second credit card cloned, shortly after changing my registration info on ITunes.
Is it possible to get your credit card cloned on ITunes?
i am really worried.

From what I know the link when you use the itunes store is encrypted and your credit card details are not sent over the line when purchasing, as they are already on the server, only your username and password are sent to confirm your login.
If you updated the credit card details you should have no issue if you did it on the phone, if you did it on a pc, it could be the pc was compromised, but this is pure speculation.

Is it possible to sync your iphone to 2 pc's (work/home)and keep outlook calendar?

I had a iphone but returned it, but now I need confirmation that it is possible to have an iphone sync between to PCs (work / home). I want to know if its possible to have it sync the phone with two computers. Home has itunes for music and such, work doesn't have itunes on it - but I need to make sure that my calendar syncs between the two computers.
I am concerned that if I sync at home it will upload fine but then if I try to sync at work it will want to delete all my contact on my computer and replace with what's on the iphone?
So basically - is it possible to have your iphone sync with two seperate pc's? I use outlook calendar and live my life with it - I must be able to use it on the iphone - can you?
Can you change the way names are stored in the contacts, I have businesses and personal contacts - I want to be able to look up a business not have to remember the name of the person who runs it?

Can you change the way names are stored in the contacts, I have businesses and personal contacts - I want to be able to look up a business not have to remember the name of the person who runs it?
You didn't say what contacts application you are syncing your iPhone with, but almost all give you a choice to list contacts by name or by business. That setting on the computer should transfer to the synced iPhone. Works with my Mac.
