Need Advice on How To / Recommended App. for Custom "Word of the Day" Screensaver

I really like the “Word of the Day” screensaver that comes with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.  I would like to either 1.) customize this screensaver with my own dictionary OR 2.) identify an app that I could purchase / download which would allow me to create my own custom “Word of the Day” screensaver. 
Does anyone have advice on how I can create a custom “Word of the Day” screensaver using my own dictionary?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
If you have time for just a couple more questions.  The ultimate goal is have my new flash files in a version (as3) so they can be used as android, html5 and iOs products.
So would the steps be these?
Install cs6
Open SWF files that were created in as2
(I am assuming by doing this, all the assets will end up in the library which is currently not happening when I import the swf files into Flash CC)
So now I have the old swf files open in a version of flash that works in as2.
I understand that as2 is not fully convertible to as3.  But assuming I want to use the assets (graphics and audio) to recreate the animations in as3 can I then save the as2 file as as3 so it would then work with AIR?
Thanks again?

  • I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod?

    I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod? More specifically special education apps.
    Thanks

    Keep in mind as well that not all apps are "created equal".  Some are really good, and others are not very good.  You might also want to look at some education sites for recommendations.  An example of a general iPads in education forum is

    but I imagine some exist for special education needs as well.  Our healthcare organization is using some apps for working with autistic children and find them very helpful. 

  • I recently purchased an Apple TV box & the App for Apple TV from the Apple store. Now how do I get it to work? I am a card-carrying technological imbecile.

    I recently purchased an Apple TV box & the App for Apple TV from the Apple store. Now how do I get it to work? I am a card-carrying technological imbecile.

    If I'm understanding correctly, you have an Apple TV 2 (the small, black box version of the Apple TV), and downloaded the Remote App from the iTunes Store for your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad, correct?  If so...
    For the AppleTV setup, hook it up to your television and, if applicable, your Surround Sound system.  To do this, you'll use an HDMI cable (not included, available here) to hook the AppleTV to your Television.  The cable only fits one way, and should slide effortlessly into place.  If, and only if, you intend to use your surround sound system with the AppleTV, you will also need what's called a TOSLINK Optical Cable (also not included, available here).  This cable goes from the AppleTV to a port labelled Optical In or Digital In on the back of your surround receiver (consult the manual that came with your surround sound system for additonal help).
    From here on, we'll focus on hooking up the AppleTV, then how to setup the Remote App from Apple on your iOS device.
    The AppleTV needs a network connection in order to function correctly.  A wired connection is recommended, but Wi-Fi is built-in to the AppleTV if a wired connection isn't available.  With the AppleTV plugged into your television, follow the on-screen instructions for setup.  To connect the AppleTV to your Wi-Fi network, you'll need to know the name of the network you want to connect to, as well as any password needed to connect to it.  When the AppleTV has a network connection, it'll load the latest selection of TV Shows, Movies and Music for display on the main menu - that's the easiest way to tell everything's working.
    For the Remote App, all you need to do is download the free application to a compatible iOS device (Any iOS device running iOS 3.1.2 or higher).  Once downloaded, go to the computer hosting your iTunes library, and turn on Home Sharing.  Finally, start the Remote App on your iOS device (be it iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch), login with the same information you setup Home Sharing with, and away you go!  The Remote App is entirely optional, since the AppleTV can be controlled by the included remote control, but it's a nice touch nonetheless.
    I hope this answered your question, or at least helped put you on the path to success.  If you need something clarified, please don't hesitate to ask here.

    Re: how to get apps for iphone 3g 4.2.1 all apps support higher version help....

    I still have an old 3G which I use mostly as a ipod/radio. By accident I found you can overide the i-tunes block.
    1. Select Apps in Apps store icon on the phone.
    2. Choose App to download
    3.  At "Instal" button press it QUICKLY in blocks of 3 presses, keep doing  this until it overides the i-tune warning, then if there were legacy  versions for os 4.2.1 it says something like "this app is for os 5 or  above", but gives you a choice to download an older version. Select  this.
    Sometimes  it says the Apps is for newer hardware, requiring motion sensors, front  camera's etc.. just got to accept these ones don't work on legacy  hardware.
    4.  Download does not work for all Apps, esp. newer ones written after os  4.21 or if the developer doesn't have the vintage apps archived- e.g.  Instagram downloads, but won't run (wants to update), or WSJ and Barrons  stalls and goes through a download loop.
    I am not making this up, as I bought this old 3g unit on e-bay, after a complete factory reset I now have:
    -  Tune-in, FB, Pandora,Skype, Twitter, Bloomberg, MSNBC, Forbes,  Marketwatch, Viber, amongst a host of other news apps like LATimes.
    Some Apps will download ok, and then at activation says its too old and no longer supported e.g Whats App.
    Otherwise,  good luck. Tune-in, Pandora, Skype and Twitter is all I need to keep me  happy with an old unit, even though I've got newer hardware. Never let  anything die unnaturally.

  • How to manage apps for lots of devices

    Hi, I work @ all college in AU. We are implementing ipads as a study tool. Initially the ipads will be set up by the college, then distributed to the students to keep.
    My question is about how to manage apps for so many devices. For example we have 2 apps that need to be installed for 150 units to begin with. This could get quite messy I would think. Has anyone had any experience with this sort of volumes? Any and all input would be greatly appreciated.

    Look in the forum above this one...

  • Need a suitable app for Microsoft word, excel

    Need a suitable app for Microsoft word. Can you guys please help me out with a good app to use for access word, power point and excel? Greatly appreciate it.

    There is no such animal as Office Pro 2010 for a Mac. There is either Office 2008 or 2011. Both only run on a Mac computer, not on an iPad.
    What I know is that what I referred to you works on an iPad. They can read and edit Office files. Whether you will find they meet your standards I cannot say.

    Download the apps on your syncing computer and then sync to the iPod. Note that you can only sync apps for the one syncing computer you use with the iPod. You can manage music and videos among different computer.

    Hi, I need help on how to update software for my ipad1, can someone help me?

    The iPad 1 can not be upgraded beyond 5.1.1. If you haven't upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, see the info below.
    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • Hi where can I learn how to develop app for ios in Singapore?

    I am new to iOS development. Are there any courses from apple or elsewhere in Singapore that I can learn how to develop apps for iPad and iPhone  platform?
    Thanks.

    There are a number of good resources. Stanford did indeed start up the iOS development class again, but the registration period has passed. You can stilll download the material and do a self-study, though:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/course/coding-together-developing/id593208016
    There are also Apple's materials, the primary source of development information:
    https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action
    If you do a web search for "iOS development", you'll find a number of other sites that should be of help.
    Regards.

  • I downloaded some apps for my ipho in the apptrackr site, the apps are shown in my itunes library but when i try to sync those apps at first it works and then it says an error occur (0xE8008001). How can I sync them without the error?

    If your phone is jailbroken, we can't help you, as already stated.
    If you're new to this and you're trying to download apps to put on your phone and it is NOT jailbroken, you can't do that.
    You must go through the iTunes app store.

  • I need a multiple message voice mail app for Iphone 4S that also provides an auto-attendant, e.g the caller can dial 1 for one of business's or 2 for the other. Each of these options will need to have a different voice mail greeting. Help please?

    There are no alternative voicemail apps - the core functionality of the phone can not be replaced.
    You'll have to look for an external service, that can then forward calls for each caller onto the correct phone.
    At our business we use Voipfone.co.uk which allows multiple phone lines to come into one VOIP account.

  • Need advice! Ipad 3 16GB or 32 GB, buying in few days, super confused...

    Hi guys, I would really appreciate any advice you can offer!
    I just read some info that the apps optimized for the new Ipad are much bigger than the other apps so I'm really confused which one should I buy.
    USAGE: I'm NOT going to use it for music (I have a nice mp3 player). May be I'll have like 1 GB of video  on it at all times, but I can reduce that, it's not that important. If I watch a movie, I'll definitely delete it after that. I'm not going to shoot movies or take pictures with it as well.
    I'm definitely going to install many apps(suppose 30 of the most space demaning apps for IPAD 3 in the store,I just don't know how much space would 30-40 apps really take ?), much reading material (ebooks, magazines, comics etc), going to have few games for sure (suppose I have the top 5 largest games in the app store) and going to have like 1-2 GB of pictures at all times.
    So considering all these details, how much do you think that is approximately going to take? I guess I'll also need like 1-2 GB free at all times just for the sake of it and for the fast functioning of the IPAD itself.
    Thank you in advance for all your answers!

  • Change default app for DAT files as the su

    Hey
    I do a lot of work in the terminal and it's sometimes convenient to be "su" permanentely instead of login in and out of the root account. The problem is whenever I try to open a DAT file, it tries to open it with, of all the apps in my Mac, HP Photosmart or something like that -.-
    I've done the "cmd+i -> change all" several times now and it only worked for the non-root user...
    Does anyone know how to change the deafult app for DAT files as the su (maybe the command line(s) for doing so)??
    It's not like it's a life or death thing, it's just that it's a bit annoying having to constantly write "-a Microsoft\ Excel" whenever I want to open such a file (which can be several dozens of times in an afternoon and since the names of the files may change it won't suffice to 'arrow up' to the line previously used =\)
    Much appreciated

    I'll try that, thanks
    I sometimes need it 'cause of permission issues of the files...
    (E.g.,  Some file is sent to me or I'm logged as su to install something using ports and compile/run programs and the output files generated are only readable/editable as su... As I said, it's not a life/death thing, just wanted to know if anyone knew how to fix it once and for all )
    I'll post the result as soon as I've tried the proposed solution

  • How do I search for a word through multiple files in my directories ??

    Hello everyone
    How do I search for a word through multiple files in my directories ??
    I am guessing one tedious way to do it would be to pass all the file names as command line arguments but I"m sure there exist a much easier and faster way to do it.
    Thanks a lot

    You need to pass only the directory name as parameter and then retrieve the files(recursively throug subdirs or not, however you wish) of that directory.
    There were at least 2 threads yesterday on how to retrieve files from directory, and there are many others in the archive so I leave the search part to you ;)
