Preferences, Project, can't change project duration or default layer duration

Having trouble changing the project duration or default layer duration in Preferences. I change them and restart Motion and nothing is changed.
Probably overlooking something. Help

There are a couple of ways to lengthen (or shorten) a project once you've started the project.
1) Select the Project "layer" at the top of the Layers list, then in the Inspector, select the Properties pane and look down for Duration. You can type in the value needed for the length of project. You have the option of using Timecode, Frames, or Seconds.
2) Set the Canvas "clock" (/playhead position) to the Project length. To do that, click on the clock icon and the "time" should look like 12:15. Click and drag up (or down) on the time value to lengthen or shorten the project.
When you start Motion and are presented with a Project picker, in the upper right corner of the dialog, you can set the length required (Duration) for your project(s). Once you start that project with that time length, Motion will remember and all subsequent projects will be created with that time length until you change it at that location again. I actually haven't set the default project duration in preferences in quite a long time. However, if Motion is not remembering the project length setting, you might need to Quit Motion, then hold down the Command and Option keys and restart Motion (that should delete preferences and reset Motion to its defaults).

So what you want is for it to say Lebanon (English)? If so, see if this helps:

Can I change the Transform measurement default from pixels to inches?

Can I change the Transform measurement default from pixels to inches?
CS 6 (13.0.1) on Windows 7 64-bit

We could be talking about different things. I meant the fields in the Options bar when in Transform mode. See screenshot.
They always default to px for X and Y, and % for W and H, regardless of the units setting in Preferences.

How can I change the logo of default application server

I am in 10g environment. Whenever I open my application in browser I see a splash screen "Oracle Application Server Form Services ...".
Can I change this splash screen with the my own.
I tried the following but it just removed the default one

Yes, you can.
The GIF file must be under a directory where Oracle can read, like the %ORACLE_HOME%/Java directory. And you only specify the file name, not the full path.

VS 2013 - SQL Server Projects - Can I Change defaults for SQL Servers to use and the paths to DB-files?

Hi all,
when a create a SQL Server Project using "File > New ...", I find the following settings defaulted:
SQL Server is (local)\Version12.0 and
DefaultDataPath, DefaultFileprefix and the DefaultFilename(s) for MDFs and LDFs point to the Project directory.
Initial settings of file size and increments are also not settable but defaulted.
Because my projects have to verify performance by testing with large volume of data, we have to use a different SQL Server with files stored on that Server. The Project settings have a button to changes DB properties, but these are not part of that
dialog.
So I spent some fruitless hours in vain to find a way to change the project's connection to my development SQL Servers.
How to cope with that?
Thanks in advance.
Regards Uwe

Hi Caillen,
thanks for Your response. I have to apologize for being a little late with my answer. I'll try to clarify my case more precisely:
This is surely a topic related to VS2013 handling new "SQL Server Database Projects". When one clicks "OK" the following steps are executed by VS2013 (surely controlled by standard templates or the like):
VS2013 creates the new project in a selectable directory and uses the projectname as a subdirectory whre the directory elements (*.sqlproj, bin\, obj\) where later all the *.sql are placed, too. This is normal and expected.
VS2013 creates a new database with its DB-files
and attaches it to "(localdb)\ProjectsV12". The name of the database is the name of the project. The path to the DB-files (*.mdf and ldf) and their sizes are also defaulted to small values. The DB-server and the
path to the DB-files is taken from the registry (!) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\SSDT\LocalDbDatabaseFilePaths. I don't know when and by what tools these values are set.
The path to DB-Files is typically also the path to the projects. The (local)-server places all system database files in the User\<user-ID>\Appdata\.. tree. Which is OK for small databases. The templates extracts some data from the DB-file path and
places it in the deployment SQLs to populate the SQLCMD variables DefaultDataPath, DefaultFileprefix and the DefaultFilename(s) which are generated when pressing "Executed" or "Debug" the project.
My problem is that we have to test database performance with larger volumes of data (e.g. two million rows and more). These cannot be stored in the User-path but must be handled by some kind of professional DB-Manager on various storage devices. When everything
is tested, the publishing function of VS2013 will extract the structure and you are done incl. all the performance taming things.
The dialog from the project properties can change to a different Server, but that server does not know your project database. The server and the DB-Files should be specified by the developer before VS2013 creates the database.
So the right forum would be a forum, where people developing SQL Server solutions with VS2013 are reading the questions.
Thanks again for your patience.
Regards Uwe

Can not change project properties (crashes when opening)

I try to change the project properties when I go to open it livetype crashes

I had this same problem... but only with one account. Another account on the same machine worked fine. So... I studied the crash report searching for the short user name of the crashing account and found one file that was unique to this user...
/Users/<my user account>/Library/ColorPickers/RCWebColorPicker.colorPicker
I deleted it and now Project Properties in LiveType works fine!
There seems to be an update to this color picker:

In system preferences I can not change my wallpaper; it just freezes

I need help; today I went to change my wallpaper and the system preferences froze; I did everything from repair disk to safe boot and still it is frozen; have the new Mountain Lion system. also in my preference folder there is no list for desktop or system preferences; what is going on?

First follow the instructions in this support article:
System Preferences stops responding after viewing Desktop & Screen Saver pane
If there's no change, continue as below.
In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:
Caches/com.apple.systempreferences
and move the following item to the Desktop:
Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the item on the Desktop back where it came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the item.

Can I change Address Book's default setup?

I want to import my entire address book database from Palm Desktop to Apple Address Book (only about 5,000 entries in total).
I have several fields in the Palm Desktop database that don't match the Address Book default setup. In Address Book, I went to Card> Add Field> Edit Template but the changes I made there to the Template didn't actually seem to change anything in the actual Address Book display of addresses, even though I made several changes in the Edit Template function - it was as though the changes I made in the template editing function had no effect at all. The changes I made are still there when I revisit the Edit Template function but the additions and alterations don't show in the final address display.
1. Where did my changes to that Template go in respect to the actual display of the addresses?
2. Is there some way to apply my edited template to all the entries in Address Book in one fell swoop?
3. If not, then why have the Edit Template function at all?
I've done some trial runs using a tab-delimited file exported from Palm Desktop, which Address Book seems to import and work with happily... except for this inability to choose my edited template for the new entries - Address Book forces the new database into Address Book's own Template with none of my chosen changes. It's as though the template edit function is just for show but with no real functionality.
I hope this is all making sense...
This is an great time for me to make sweeping changes if necessary (if it is possible or if it helps) since I'm beginning a totally new database in Address Book from scratch.
Many thanks for any help.

Paul,
I'm afraid you will loose some of your data that you can insert in your Palm when you transfer to AddressBook, but you can try to get in as much as possible. Especially the custom fields are much more flexible in Palm.
But in the end, the full integration of AB in your Mail and Calender, backup to .Mac etc. may offset these drawbacks.
When you set up a template, did you actually complete one address record?
If not, you should.
When you want to import to AB from a tab-delimited file, try this program
Addressbook Importer, an excellent piece of freeware that will do this for you.
In the top row before you import, make sure you have an address record that has all your customized fields completed in a way you know which field that is (you can do this in Palm, using the name A. AAA, address etc.)
Now when you use the importer, you can make sure wich field goes where.
Backup your Palm data well before you start experimenting. I wouldn't want to be the cause of you dropping 5000 records. Also, disable all syncing when you start. Once it works, make a backup from within the AB application. Then when all looks OK, you can start syncing using iSync instead of Hotsync.

Can't change Printer scale size default

Every time I restart the Print page set up for all applications defaults to 46%. I want it to be 100%. It's very annoying. Have looked in all prefs. The printer is Magiclor (konica Minolta) Can anyone help?

Hi Kobe Zhang
Option 1:
Your MSN account might be deleted but the eprintcenter wont be deleted along with it.
You should be still able to login to eprintcenter account using the old msn id and the same old password for eprintcenter account which you used regularly.
If you have forgot the password, i dont know how can you recover it.
If you get a chance to login then you can remove the printer from the old account and then claim it in your new account created usign hotmail ID.
If you are not worried about changing your printers email ID, here is option 2.
One more option is to de register the printer and register it again to cloud to get a new email address which can be used to claim the printer in your new account and then customize your email ID there. But be aware that you might not be able to set the same customised email ID which you have used in your old account.
Kind Regards,
Olilloyd

How can I change network port configuration default setting?

Hello,
I am having trouble connecting to the internet. When I try to connect, it dials, rings, and then has a long tone, then disconnects. Preferences>Network>Assist Me>Diagnostics>Location>Network Port has Built in Ethernet chosen. I unchoose it, choose Internal Modem. It goes on to try to connect, than asks me if I have DSL or Cable (I don't) I choose no, asks me if there is anything else to restart, no, I choose. It then says to check configuration. I go back till the location page then continue, continue, then it connects. It won't stay selected to Internal Modem. I have checked its box and dragged it to the top (and unchecked and dragged Ethernet to the bottom). This happens 90% of the time but not always. I can connect to the internet, but have to go through this. I don't have Built in Ethernet.
Thanks,
Maria

Open Network preferences. Select Internal Modem from the list and click on the Configure button. Click on the PPP tab. Fill in the required information for your dial up ISP including your username and password (for your dial up account.) Check the box to save your password. Click on the Apply button. Click on the TCP/IP tab and select DHCP from the Configure IPv4 drop down menu, click on the Apply button. Click on the Modem tab and select the modem from the drop down menu that corresponds to the one you are using or have installed internally in your computer. Click on the Apply button. Quit Network preferences. This should have you all set. Use Internet Connect to initiate the dial up.

How can I change the screen capture default filename and location?

AS3 and AS4 screen capture keystrokes create badly named files in a bad location, i.e., picture1.png, picture2.png, etc. on the desktop. This is silly, as it creates un-differentiable files. I would at least like to change the filename template, and at best also the location that they go to, but I can't figure out how to do this, if it's even possible. (The filename should have a timestamp, not just a sequence number, for example: picture_200911181234.png or whatever -- pretty much anything but a simple sequence number!)

Use TinkerTool to change the download location for the screenshots. However, AFAIK, you're stuck with those names unless you a folder action to the download location such that it will change the names according to some scheme you devise. For that, try a google search for *folder actions mac*.

In the Export Settings, can I change the source range default from "entire clip" to "clip in/out"?

I have a lot of clips I need to export and I have marked in/out on each of them in their bins. I call each one up in the Source Window and hit Export. I would love to not have to navigate to the source range tab and change this setting for each file. I searched the preferences but didn't see anything that seemed related to this. Advice?
this is for PPro CC.
Thanks, Steve

You'll have to do this one at a time. There's no way to change the default value on that.
Having said that, Prelude might be the better tool here. Give it a look.
