Please DON'T click back and forth! READ WHY.

The iTunes servers have a limited amount of bandwidth. This is why we cannot connect to finish upgrading our iPhones.
Think of it like people trying to call in to a radio station to be the 100th caller and win a prize. If you keep hanging up and dialing back in faster, you have more of a chance of getting through when the line is clear. That is what you are doing when you click back and forth. You are sending a flurry of requests to Apple's servers.
HOWEVER, just like calling a radio station, you are SLAMMING the lines and making the overload WORSE. This DELAYS Apple from getting the problem fixed. Instead of getting one request from you every 20-30 seconds, Apple now gets requests from your computer every second or two.
So please, STOP clicking back and forth. Go outside, take a walk, play with your kids, do something else. Come back later when the bottleneck is reduced.
Thanks.

WRONG! Per AppleCare reps, once you get the "Accessing iTunes Store" you are in the queue. If you disconnect, you will lose your place in line. The way to make CERTAIN you DON'T lose your place according to them, is to do the "dance": Click "Ok" to clear error message, click on another item in the left panel of iTunes, then click on the "iPhone" item. Repeat after each error message.

I'll add my voice to the chorus, Tranzport. You learn how to use it fairly quickly, it uses bluetooth to connect but will go quite a ways away from the console because it has this 'antenna' to get the signal stronger and closer to your source.
Now since you also have the problem of controlling mic levels etc... the Tranzport won't control your preamp. For that I use the Universal Audio DCS. This is a piece sent from heaven. GREAT Mic preamps (2 of them) full remote control over them, AND you get to control the headphone mix in the remote control unit. The weird thing is that UA decided to discontinue it, so you might find it on eBay or somewhere for cheap. I am not sure why they discontinued it, it's a wonderful piece of gear.

How do I stop new tabs from opening - all I want is one window that I can click back and forth on the page history

I do not want multiple windows or multiple tabs. In older Firefox versions just one window could be set, using the page history to go backwards or forwards. How do you disable new tabs or new windows from automatically opening in firefox 7?

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.

HT1911 Why does the Apple ID password on my iPhone never work on my iMac desktop? I have to keep changing them when I login back and forth. Why can't it recognize on either device?

It seems that every time I login on my iPhone to buy iTunes, it doesn't recognize my password and I have to change it. Then when I go to iTunes to synch, it says my password which I created on the SAME APPLE ID is invalid and I have to change it. I tried to change it to the same password each time, but still it was not recognized by the other device. Is it because I'm not on Lion or Mountain Lion? (although I seem to remember this problem happening before there was iCloud)
Thanks for any help.

Hi skippy2012trev,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
Cheers,
Joe

How do I get my Profire 610 to run tandem w/ my log pro9 w/o clicking back n forth between programs

New interface for me plz help.

"Clicking back and forth between programs?" What programs?
You just need to tell Logic (Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio>Devices>Coreaudio) which interfaces' in- and outputs to use.

Are you waiting to get error message, or are you toggling back and forth?

Just curious of the 'technique' you are using. Are you waiting to get the "network connection was reset" error message or are you just quickly hitting the "i" and "m" keys back and forth?
I've been doing a little bit of both with NO success.

I clicked back and forth a couple of times and after the 7th or 8th time I would wait. It finally worked after 30 minutes of doing this. Hope you are up and runnung soon.:)

How do I disable the flipping back and forth between pages with PgUp and PgDn? Please tell me that I can!

As of Firefox 4, it seems to have been decided that PgUp and PgDn are now buttons with which you flip back and forth between pages. To me, this essentially means almost losing valuable information because I actually use those to go up and down pages, so I wonder; How do I disable this new and utterly inconvenient feature?
Please tell me that I can!

In your system details, I see this plug installed: ''Macromedia Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 8.0''
You also appear to have a later one, though still out of date installed namely, ''Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.5 ''
First of all, click the orange Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the Macromedia version.
Then go to http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ and update the other one.
If the problem persists afterwards, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

The box {cannot use app in safe mode} would you like to temporarily switch, I press continue and it goes to please log in, and these two boxs go back and forth not allowing me to continue the game like farmville etc.

the dialogue box says {we cannot continue with this app in a secure mode. Would you like to temporarily disable to an unsecured mode and you will be able to use the app at your next log in.} I push the "Continue" button, not the cancel button and it tells me to {Please log in, you are not logged in}. I will then log in and the original window as mentioned above comes back again. These two boxes go back and forth when I try to continue in any of the games on Facebook.

Hi thanks for all the concern and replies. I've tried all that.
I had just got it back from the shop last Friday. It was there for around two weeks. It was a faulty GPU (when you see garbled display that's consisten when booting it the GPU). I have a strong feeling it's related to the Lion install 10.7 or 10.7.1 and may be similar to reports of Mac laptops overheating. It's good the GPU is removable, it might have taken 3 week or a month if it had been the whole board.
It's a blessing in disguise though as with all or most cases because I also got to have the LCD replaced for excessive backlight bleeding (in my opinion), the dead pixel from the previous LCD isn't there anymore (though under the glass there're some smudges but nothing crucial). The backlight bleeding is still the same though in my opinion but at least it's new.
It's a great thing I bought Applecare. I didn't buy it for the iPhone because that's more durable (my iPhone 3G's 3 years old now and it's still solid. Although there are scratches and a crack at the back at the bottom, got sqeezed under the table I think when I sat). I think Applecare is a good recommend for things that get hot like desktop and laptop Macs(are the iOS considered Macs btw?) which are twice or thrice the price of iOS devices.

Cannot find anyplace to tell a page to wrap within browser margins, so one does not have to slide it back and forth to read each line.

Cannot find anyplace to tell a page to wrap within browser margins, so one does not have to slide it back and forth to read each line::::::::::::
Yes, there are so many pages on-line that -- when made small enough to fit within the margins so one does no have to use a scroll bar on EVERY line, moving it back and forth, back and forth -- look like a FINE-print Bible page (!! tiny !!) if you keep reducing it to fit within the margins.
ALL because we cannot find a place to tell it to WRAP to FIT. Could have sworn I've seen some feature like that somewhere at one time, but if it is here, I cannot find it.
Thank you.

HP PhotoSmart 6525 Switching Back-and-Forth between Wireless and USB

Hi,
I setup my HP PhotoSmart 6525 using the "Wireless with a router" setup instructions (i.e. not Wireless Direct). I am able to print from my laptop through the wireless network. I would also like to be able to print from my laptop using the USB connection at times when my laptop is physically sitting next to the printer. At times when it is not, I want to continue to be able to print wirelessly.
Is it possible to setup the print drivers on the laptop so that I can easily switch back-and-forth between USB printing and wireless network printing? I suspect that it may not be possible because the user guide has a section describing how to "Change from a USB connection to a wireless network" that has you click on a menu item called "Convert a USB connected printer to wireless". There are no instructions for how to convert back to USB. Moreover, the use of the word "convert" does not make it sound like you can maintain both print methods simultaneously on a single computer.
Does anyone know whether it can be done, and if so how?
Thanks in advance,
Paul2
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hey Paul2,
I see you have the HP Photosmart 6525 installed for Wireless printing capacity and would also like to add a USB driver so that it is available for use when near the printer. Please follow the steps below to add a copy of the printer for USB printing. The below steps are for Windows 7 and below based computers. If you have Windows 8, then the steps will be slightly different so let me know. Please let me know if you have a Mac, because I can provide those steps at that time.
Press the Start menu of the computer
Select All Programs
Open the HP Folder
Open the folder for the HP Photosmart 6520 series
Select "Printer Setup and Software"
Select the option to Add a new printer
Select the USB option
Plug the USB cable in when the software requests it and proceed through the install process
This will leave the Wireless driver support in place and add a second printer under the Devices and Printers window for USB printing. The USB printer may contain Copy 1 in the name as a differentiation, however the other one should also state Network in the printer name to indicate it is the wireless option.
I hope this helps,
Jason

Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?

If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
This is great. I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad. If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy. I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer.
I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad. I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?

I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad. But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad? I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud. I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be.

Can't Remove Underlines in PDF/ Alternating back and Forth!

Hello All,
I'm preparing a document that goes out to the entire Rogue Valley
in Southern Oregon, about 15 towns in the form of 4,000 printed
documents. I'm behind schedule and ran into a little problem when
editing.
1st, this file used to be an Excel file which no longer exists. All the
text in my PDF document, are contained in boxes.
I was just about finished and adding some details, (underlining addresses
to offset 1 meeting schedule from the next), when somehow all my text
got underlined.
I thought, ohhh a headache but, I'll highlight all text, click the underline
button to reverse the effect, and then start underlining individual parts
again. However, when I tried to do this Adobe Acrobat XI Pro would
alternate and underline some text while removing it from others, back
and forth with no absolute method of removing underlines.
It seems to me that there would be a command to remove all underlines
regardless of the circumstance?? What the heck, please help?????
Thanks,
Bang Head Blues

thank you for that advice. I assumed Adobe pro was like Office on steroids.
Sounds like there similarities are few and far between but they compliment
each other, nevertheless? Thanks for the heads up, I'm sure you just saved
me lot of time and headache!

IPhone: Using embedded QT movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth

Hi to everyone,
I'm working on a very simple iPhone app:
it has several buttons that launch different QuickTime movies embedded in the application, that will either Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
The desired looping behaviour is already set within QuickTime itself (those settings are available in QuickTime's View menu).
So far it doesn't seem to work, as the iPhone's SDK doesn't seem to recognize these QuickTime settings of Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
I've been trying to find advanced documentation on the matter, with no luck.
Does anyone knows if it's possible to create an iPhone application that has embedded QuickTime movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth?
If it is possible to do so, can you please post some code (or links) explaining how to proceed?
If the feature is not currently supported, does anyone knows if it will eventually be supported by Apple (maybe in a future SDK revision)?
While I don't know the entire context the SDK engineering team has to contend with, it seems to me it should be rather simple for Apple's iPhone SDK to simply accept the settings already put in place inside a QuickTime movie.
Many thanks in advance for any feedback on this!

Well, my programmers have come back to me and the news is not good.
The QTMovieLoopsAttribute is not supported in the SDK's QT Kit.
I'll now call it SDK's *QuickTime Kit Lite*, if you don't mind.
*QuickTime Kit Lite*, the key audio/video toolbox available for development of applications on the iPhone through the SDK, provides a single option:
a Play / Stop button.
The only other thing available (I think) is the option to hide the play/stop controller. That's it.
Apparently, there are several unofficial, private frameworks that give access to lower-level QuickTime functions and that may provide a way to actually loop videos, but chances are that an app using these unofficial frameworks would get rejected by Apple upon submission for the store.
I'm still waiting for more info and the final word from my programmers, but from the looks of it, this is going to be a show-stopper shortcoming of QT Kit Lite, as far as my project is concerned.
I'm probably going to have to fold my project and wait (hope) for an eventual upgrade to the SDK's QT Kit.
By the way, does anyone knows if there is a way to communicate with Apple and request new features for inclusion in future revisions of the SDK?
Upgrading the QuickTime Kit librairies to include the video Loop and Loop Back and Forth Attributes would be my first (and only) request.
many thanks to all!

Best way to make a short movie that can play back and forth smooth?

Hi!
I have a short .flv clip (video) of a shoe rotating 360 degrees.
The clip is less then 4 seconds and about 320kb in size and I'm using flash CS4.
I'm trying to build some sort of a player that lets the user scrub through the movie (back and forth).
The player is also supposed to be able to play the clip back or forth at a speed selected by the user.
I have read kglad's reply about "How to play backwards flv imported in timeline on flash cs3?", and the code works perfect, except that the video is not playing smooth when played backwards. I guess when playing normal, the next frames are by default buffered, but when playing backwards they are not...
Which is the best way of doing this?.
Maybe it has already been done? Has anyone heard about something similar?
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
Please find the file attached. I changed the file extension from .fla to .eps.
(I also added one with the extension .mpg)
Basically I just want to be able to rotate the shoe in either direction,
but then I also would like the user to be able to "spin" it.
Meaning that when the user turns the shoe around, the speed is recorded,
and when he releases the mousebutton, the shoe will continue to rotate at that speed.
Do you think it could work using video? Or do I have to use stillimages instead?
Your script worked, but the film doesn't playback smoothly..
Thanks in advance!

Screen vibrates when booting up. It fluctuates very fast between Safari and Microsoft Messenger. Back and forth .... flicking away .... back and forth, very, very, quickly. And then when its completely finished booting, everything is OK.

I sign in and when Safari opens, whilst Microsoft Messenger is downloading, the monitor screen vibrates between Safari and Messenger at a very, very, fast pace. Back and forth, back and forth, alternating between the two. When the booting process is completed the computer is fine. Everything is OK. Anyone know what is causing this, and what to do about it?

YES .... but they have always been set to open at login. I must admit that if Messenger isn't set to open at login this doesn't happen. But even though Safari opens at login, the opening page in Safari doesn't open; I have to click on Safari again, (when I am reminded after the computer has booted-up), because the monitor screen is just blank! Then after a click on the Safari icon the screen fills up in a second. Gees, what have I unintentionally done?

Please DON'T click back and forth! READ WHY.
