Lack of options?

I am in charge of a Student Council project at the school where I teach (Annville-Cleona High School, Annville, PA). This project is an end of the year slide show. I would like to use iDVD but it has several features that our current slide show in PpwerPoint does provide. 1) I can not modify one individual slide to contain multiple pictures. 2) I can not add more than one song and the show is aproximately (50 minutes in length). 3) I can not vary the transitions from picture to picture - iDVD uses the same transition for all the picutres. 4) I can not add text or various sizes and colors to each slide as well as vary the location of the text on the slide. For all of the good qualities that iDVD 6 has it is lacking in os many other areas. I wuld really like to make a DVD out of the finished project but iDVD makes that impossible. If you have another software option I would like to see what it can do, or if I am not seeing all the options of iDVD i would like to know where to find them. What it (iDVD) does it does very well, but for now i guess I am still stuck using Powerpoint. The show contained about 400 slides which used almost 1,200 pictures and 605MB of memory. Am I stuck using Powerpoint or are other enhancements such as those mentioned above going to be added to iDVD? You response and help would be greatly appreciated.

welcome ac to  board
iDVD is an authoring, encoding and burning app, mainly meant for iMovie projects...
that "create videoDVD with photos" within iDVD is - from my p.o.v. - really just an add-on, a very-beginners feature… and it is limited by videoDVD standards (as "just 99 slides in one show")
as mish wrote:
iDVD is NO editing app… iMovie is your choice for your task… you can import as much pics you want, arrange them, add effects (as your wanted multi pic... I would use a designated pic app for accomplishing that…)....
Powerpoint? yepp, that is a designated slideshow maker.... but I prefer doing "videos" with a video-app...
happy editing.......

Thank you.

When looking at the strace file the Driver Manager tries to load the odbc.ini you specified in your gateway init file: set ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini
but that fails as the oracle user can not access it - instead it tries to load a different file:
17811 open("/etc/odbc.ini", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_APPEND, 0666) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
17811 open("/usr/local/unixodbc/etc/odbc.ini", O_RDONLY) = 8
Could you please make sure that the oracle user can access that file?
You also mentioned at the beginning that you could connect to the Postgres database using isql - did you do the test as "oracle" user and what ENV parameters have you set before opening isql?
Just a minor issue which has no impact as your LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment is set correctly - the listener.ora file contains the line
(EVNS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/unixodbc/lib:/usr/local/pgsqlodbc/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin)
but EVNS should be ENVS or even better ENV. So please correct:
(EVNS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/unixodbc/lib:/usr/local/pgsqlodbc/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin)
to
(ENV="LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/unixodbc/lib:/usr/local/pgsqlodbc/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin")
Then stop and start the listener.

Lack of options for Mobile Broadband users.

I am really disappointed with the lack of options i have because my only internet option is Mobile Broadband. I live in an area, that Telstra decided, didnt need to change with the times so we get no ADSL internet as the exchange is too far away and Telstra dont feel the need to upgrade so the whole town can get ADSL. The NBN is everywhere around us but here and the mobile broadband is a bit sketchy as we have poor reception in our area. There are no bundling options for mobile broadband and discounts are quite poor. Paying $60 pm for 8 gb of data , which lasts about 2 weeks at my place (teenaged kids) if im lucky. I have since got Foxtel through telstra and also have my home phone also. So now I pay well over $200 per month for these services. It is annoying to know that people can get all this with multiple times more data and included calls for lees than half of what i pay. So why are we being taken advantage of just because Telstra havent provided decent infrastructure for us to get ADSL.

Hello,The reason that Telstra are limiting their infrastructure is that the NBN will make their network largely redundant, and will not spend money to tide their customers until NBNThere is also major congestion even in inner suburbs of major cities.Sorry, but as a customer also, I am unable to help you.Thanks

HT2506 Mountain Lion's "Preview", lack of options!

I am Using Mac OS X, Version 10.8.1
So far I discovered lackness in "preview" of Moutain Lion, the things that I used a lot in previous versions. Such as:
There is no Link option if I want to link a word to URL or picture link or whatever,
The second is there no possibility to add note to the left side bar of my PDF, (The one that I used to press Command+Control+N, automatically it came up but now it does nothing)
Is it really like this? Is it going backward?!
Or is there any new ways for t=doing these?
Regards.

Lumia 720 lacks in options.. WP 8 really needs mor...

Got this lumia 720 on monday, initially got a defective one, but got replaced.. now after few days using it, i find tat it lacks in so many options..
1) there is no copy paste or forward option in texting( SMS, whatsapp)
2) not able to group the applications under menu,
3) I had bad time in synchronising contacts from my nokia c5 to lumia 720, but later found a way and got fixed..
4)ter is no option to create a folder to save important sms,
5) not able to save places ( favorites) in here maps directly, we need nokia acct to synch... ovi maps were lot better...
6) no file explorer.. If you wanted to store private pics or data, you can, but need a pc or laptop to explore them again..
7) background apps dont run always,
8) more browsers and anti-virus need to added to the app store
I'm not a big app fan, but I use the basic apps tat are necessary.. My nokia c5 was extremely easy for customization and you can do whatever you like.. but windows lacks in many options...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. Try pressing and holding the message you want to want to forward or copy. U should get options for deleting, copying and forwarding the message
2. Latest windows phone OS 7.5, 7.8 and 8 do not allow creation of folders.
3. Creating a nokia account is necessary if u need to use nokia maps. Please do the needful, nokia maps are good and can even be used offline if you download the maps u need.
4. Starting from winphone 7.5, there has been no file explorer provided. This is for security reasons.
5. Winphone OS 7.x and above does not truly multitask. Rather it uses a pseudo multitasking method. Apps get suspended when placed in the background. Plus no more than 5-6 apps can run if placed in the background.

Firefox 10.0.2 / Does not offer restore session - Tools/Options lack Startup options choice

After closing Firefox - starting again does not offer a Restore Session option. Tools/Options lacks any choice for startup options.
How do I remedy this problem.

The Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting should still be there.
Can you attach a screenshot of the Tools > Options > General window?
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Outlook 2013 Calendar lacks color options for months and "Today"?

Am I missing settings in Outlook 2013 that would allow me to color months different/alternating colors and brightly highlight "Today", specifically in the Month view for the calendar? I see I can change the color of the overall calendar,
but that does nothing to address my problems.
Background: The month view for the calendar in Outlook 2010 was wonderfully glance-able. The current month had one color background, and the bordering months had a different color, allowing you to easily see the months. Also, "Today" was brightly
highlighted in light yellow, making it easy to discern which day on the calendar was the current day. As far as I can see in Outlook 2013, these are both now missing. Months are all the same color, making it hard to scroll through and keep any
sense of what's being presented visually. Today is denoted by a tiny blue bar that blends into all the blue bars of uncategorized appointments, again making it much harder to find than it should be. If there is no option to change the highlighting,
Outlook has taken a huge step back in usability in my eyes.

I found a good way of highlighting today's appointments in weekly and monthly view using conditional formatting:
. go to Edit - Automatic Formatting
. click Add
. in the Name field enter "Today"
. in the Label field choose a color
. click on Condition...
. on Appointments and Meetings tab where it says Time:
. choose "starts"
. choose "today"
. click OK
. click OK
While not ideal, that sounds like a decent hack to highlight today, provided I have an appointment.
However, in trying to put into practice, it's picking up all of my reoccurring appointments that are set to reoccur with no end by date, and it's not picking up the reoccurring appointments that have a defined end by date that it should be getting highlighted
(as they occur today).
Even using the advanced filter to require the "Start" be "today" and the "End" be "today" it still highlights the same wrong appointments. And unless I'm misunderstanding the logic, the "Recurrence Range End" field flag appears to be broken, as I _still_
get the same behavior by setting the condition to "exists" (apparently a setting of "No End Date" puts some sort of data into the field).

Lack of option in C2-03 model

Last month I have purchased Nokia C2-03 model and I have checked that two options are missing
1) cell info display and
2) no equilizer in music player
So I requested you to resolve this matter and release a updated software version which will contain these two options.

Hai dude.. I just want to know whether all the feature in that mobile is working good. like touch screen and mobile never hangs while working. Pls confirm me dude. I am just planned to buy this mobile.

Lack of options in iCloud control panel compared to MobileMe Control panel, so now what happens if there is a conflict of data (Cloud vs Computer)?

Back then when we were syncing with MobileME, the control panel allows us to decide what to do when there is a conflit of data in the cloud vs the information on our computer. We were given the option of Replacing information in Me with information on the computer or vice versa, but now we do not have any of these options. And currently when i sync my computer with icloud, i dont know if the information (Contacts, Bookmarks) will be replaced with the current informaiton on the iCloud (transfered from MobileMe) or they will merge (if they merge then i would have double of contacts,bookmarks??) or the information in the iCloud would be replaced?
If we had more options in the control panel of iCloud, then things can be simplier. However, with the current iCloud control panel, we have no way of knowing what happens when there is a conflict and we won't know what action the iCloud would take for the conflict of information.
So currently i still dont know if my Favourites (Bookmarks) will be replaced or not.
Does anyone know if we can wipe out the info on iCloud and replace it with the data (Contacts, bookmark, calendars etc) on our computer?

This is what I did...not ideal but seems to work for right now till iCloud actually syncs contacts into Outlook 2010 (PC/Win 7) like Mobile Me used to. I opened the contacts in the iCloud contact address boxes in Outlook. I selected all contacts by selecting one and then Ctrl-A (selects all), then Ctrl-C (copies all). Then I went into the Outlook Contact folder which is blank from iCloud "stealing" all my contacts and in that empty box I hit Ctrl-V to past all contacts in. I am now able to use my contacts when emailing in Outlook.
Of course, any changes I make to my iPhone contact list or via iCloud will only sync back to the iCloud contacts lists in Outlook (and not Outlook's main calendar) so occassionally I'm thinking I'll need to go back and do this all again either figuring out a way to only copy new contacts over, or going into Outlook Contacts and deleting all of those, going back to Outlook iCloud contacts (which are syncing but not communicating with other aspects of Outlook like mail) and then do the process all over (select all, copy, paste).
Seems silly that contacts can't work the same as they did with Mobile Me but it seems like Apple has a tendancy with everything but their actual iDevices to be screwy when things are working and make things more complicated. I was not looking towards this day as I knew there would be some stupid issue as it seems like it always is that way with their new software rollouts. In fact, I use Outlook 2010 through Parrells still cause their Mac version still won't sync even calendars...at least iCloud is still doing that with Outlook 2010 Windows...though still the same issue as Mobile Me that it doesn't sync with the main calendar...but I can still use it and sync well to the iPhone.

DDNS Lack of Options. Only DynDNS and TZO (which are now the same thing)

DDNS is an open standard. Why not let us put in any URL for a DDNS server we want? Or at least expand the list of them to the many many other DDNS providers out there.
The buy in/bait and switch is: those two free options went to one free option went to no free options: PAY THE MAN.
That's not right. We shouldn't be forced by your Firmware into a new fee arrangement that we didnt' have up front.
Easy fix in the firmware, if you would...

I noticed that too. I guess most routers these days as well has already been following the same standard, which made me think that this aspect has definitely fallen as a product limitation. Right now, we are only torn of choosing between the providers supported by the routers.

Wired Mighty Mouse lacks Scrolling Options

Hello,
Is there a way to enable zoom-scrolling on a wired Mighty Mouse?
I was reading Mac Help on mouse settings and noticed a feature that I've never noticed before: Scrolling Options. Help claims that this feature allows to customize the scroll-ball behaviour, including 360 degree scrolling and zoom-scrolling. Alas, I failed to find this feature in my Keyboard & Mouse pane.
I searched on Google, and it seems that this feature was introduced in the new driver that ships on a CD with the new wireless Mighty Mouse. Look here: http://tinyurl.com/pyx7s.
Will this new driver work with the wired Mighty Mouse? if yes, where can I get this driver?

Mac OS X (10.4.7)

The Zoom function appears to be giving the wireless MM access to the Universal Access System Preference "Zoom" feature.
The MM already has 360° scrolling. I sense that the pulldown menu you see in the System Preference Pane for the new wireless MM probably gives you control to limiting the direction of the scrolling to left-right, or up-down and possibly diagonally.
Who knows, if we are lucky the new MM System Preferences may appear in a future OS X update.
Until then these 3rd party mouse System Prefs are available;

MSI Afterburner Lacks Record Option

Hello all,
I hope you can help me with this. I've used MSI Afterburner successfully on a desktop computer (specifically the recording aspect) and thought it was great, so I'm trying to get it set up for my laptop and am not having similar luck.
My main problem is this: I understand that when I view settings in the program that there should be tabs reading "Monitoring", "On-Screen Display", "Screen Capture", "Video Capture", etc. When I open up my settings, the only tabs available are "General", "Monitoring" and "User Interface". If there's an option somewhere to turn on video and screen recording, I haven't had any luck finding it.
I'm using the latest version of Afterburner (3.0.1). Maybe my graphics card isn't compatible? I have an NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M. I don't recall what the video card is on my desktop.
Thanks.

what afterburner version you use?

The new iMovie lacks the option to burn to a DVD- does this bother anyone else?

so I love the new version of iMovie but am disappointed that I can no longer send it to be turned into a DVD unless I purchase 3rd party software. I love the new enhancements, but if I can't easily burn a DVD with my movies, I'm going to have to go back to iMovie 9. Is anyone else bothered by this? has anyone else found an easy solution? fortunately I have the last version of iDVD still on my computer and can manually make a DVD with it but I'm worried that at some point and upgrade to the OS will make the use of iDVD impossible. I get the impression that Apple thinks that most people share their movies via the internet or Apple TV. I like to have a DVD that I can give to family, friends etc of special events.

i have had this problem i find if you turn the iphone off an back on again it sends

In MAX, I don't have the option to create a DAQmx Simluated Device. Why not?

I'm new to LABView. I installed the software, including the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). Within MAX, I am trying to create a DAQmx Simulated Device, as suggested in a training guide (which I quote below). I don't have the option to create such a thing upon right-clicking on "Devices and Interfaces". I am given the option to create a new GPIB-VXI Interface, a Port, VISA TCP/IP Resource, and GPIB-ENET/100. I'd appreciate if someone can help me to create a simulated device according to the following steps, given that I currently lack the option "NIDAQmx Simulated Device":
3. Create a simulated DAQ device for use later in this course. Simulated devices are a powerful tool for development without having hardware physically installed in your
computer. Right-click Devices and Interfaces and select Create New…»NIDAQmx Simulated Device. Click “Finish”.
4. Expand the M Series DAQ section. Select PCI-6220 or any other PCI device of your choice. Click “OK”.
Thanks.

It sounds like you didn't install DAQmx. Open MAX and get a list of the software present. If you don't see DAQmx listed, install it from the CD/DVD or download the latest version.

IMac has few display options, any way to enable more?

This is my uncle's iMac () and there are a lack of options for resolution. He's running @ 1920x1200 but the next level down is 1344x840. Is there any way to enable more resolutions between those 2, as it seems like a fairly big drop in resolution settings.
Thank you.

Since the hardware acceleration checkbox was created, a second kind of acceleration was added to Firefox that may need to be disabled in about:config; the checkbox has not been extended to toggle both of them for you.
Regular preference (checkbox): gfx.direct2d.disabled (default=false)<br>
Added preference (no checkbox): gfx.content.azure.enabled (default=true)
More info on the new preference in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/957459
If you haven't used about:config before, here's how:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''gfx''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''gfx.content.azure.enabled''' to toggle its value from true to false. As with the regular hardware acceleration preference, you might need to restart Firefox before this takes effect.

Lack of options?
