QuickTime and UTube movies stop & start. How can I re-set for slow internet connection?

UTube will start the movie OK, but stops a few seconds in, then buffers the feed?, and then continues. Sometimes it doesn't continue. I have a rather slow dsl connection - ethernet to my 2011 imac running 10.7.5. My question is: Is there some way to re-set the buffer settings so the videos play without stopping?

If none of the above works, please try the below.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

One thing to check: when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

ASA5510 , how can i create natpolicy for two DSL connections

How can tell me how to configure our ASA to nat our to internetconnections, at the moment the first work fine,
ISP1                        NAT
                        ASA5510      LAN
ISP2                         NAT
Regards

Looks like you are trying to loadbalance the outbound traffic, if that's the case i would say true Load balancing is not possible on ASA, however below are the possible workaround options.
1st Option
You can configure Dual ISP setup on the firewall which will provide redundancy among ISP, means if 1st ISP goes down the ASA will start routing traffic from the secondary ISP, below is the link for configuring the same.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_configuration_example09186a00806e880b.shtml
2nd Option
Lets take an example
ASA----- ISP1 (1.1.1.2)
   |---------ISP2 (2.2.2.2)
We can force the traffic for the destination ports to be routed through secondary ISP, keeping both the ISP passing traffic at the same time.
Following are the commands which will achieve it-
route ISP1 0 0 1.1.1.2 //Default route pointing to ISP1
route ISP2 0 0 2.2.2.2 2 //Default route with Metric 2 via ISP2
static (ISP2,inside) tcp 0.0.0.0 80 0.0.0.0 80
static (ISP2,inside) tcp 0.0.0.0 443 0.0.0.0 443
sysopt noproxyarp inside
nat (inside) 1 0 0
global (ISP1) 1 interface
global (ISP2) 1 interface
Thats it !! Now all the traffic destined to any address on port 80/443 will be forcibly put on ISP2 interface and routed from there.
Note: This stuff requires that we KNOW what the destination ports are, if there is some traffic which uses dynamic ports, like voice traffic we will have to route it via ISP1 and cannot make it route via ISP2.
3Rd Option
ASA is not a Load-balancer and if you want to do load balancing between ISPs we cannot *truly* achieve this, but we may configure ASA in such a manner that traffic for some destination IP address is routed via ISP1 and some is routed via ISP2. Following would be configuration commands in this scenario-
nat (inside) 1 0 0
global (ISP1) 1 interface
global (ISP2) 1 interface
route ISP1 128.0.0.0 128.0.0.0 1.1.1.2
route ISP2 0.0.0.0 128.0.0.0 2.2.2.2
The first creates a default route that routes addresses with the first bit of 1 to 1.1.1.2 of ISP1.
The second creates a default route that routes addresses with the first bit of 0 to 2.2.2.2 of ISP2.
Note: This will do traffic routing based on *Destination* IP addresses and NOT based on traffic load. As I mentioned, ASA is NOT a LB.
Please mark this as answered if your query is resolved.

How can I browse history without an Internet connection

I want to open the content page, I was visited, but has been deleted, you do it in IE by browsing the Internet without a connection, but I do not know how to this in Firefox, especially that I do not use other

Browsing History is stored in the '''cache''' and can be viewed via '''about:cache''' ''(type that in the URL bar and hit Enter)''. You can search the cache with the Find Bar at the bottom of the browser window, which can be opened using {Ctrl + F}.
Problem is that if you have gone to that page page since it was changed, you'll only find the new version of that page in the cache. A serial history of the websites you have visited isn't kept, a revisit to a web page will replace the previous cache entry for that page.
Try using the '''Wayback Machine''' to locate an older version of that webpage. <br />

But, if that page was dynamically created you probably won't find it there.

IMail 5.2: How do I optimize it for use on a slow internet connection?

Hi there,
I recently upgraded to Lion OS X v 10.7.3, and i like iMail 5.2 when I work from my office or home.
BUT, when I am working in the field I often have access to only glacially slow internet via an internet modem, and iMail takes FOREVER to download my messages. Way longer than my pre Lion version of iMail.
Is there a way to optimize iMail 5.2 in order to optimize for slow internet connections? For instance, to partially retrieve large messages? Or to somehow deactivate all the synchronizing and other Activity that goes on in the background?
Many thanks,
Hoyt

Use a web based email account like GMail or HushMail, because they are a website and people access their emails from many different machines (phones, computers, slow or fast connections) the site can optimize things better than a dumb mail server.
It's possible to auto-forward a copy of your present email accounts to have them on the web based accounts too, don't know exactly how to go about it, but many people elsewhere also have the same desire so it's obvious something like that is being used.

I downloaded a movie twice. How can I cancel the other one and get a refund?

If you are speaking of an iTunes purchase, you will need to contact iTunes Customer Service and explain the situation. Their written policy is kinda cold, in that they say they don't issue refunds for erroneous purchases, but I have found them to be a bit more understanding and helpful than that.
Start by calling Apple at 1-800-275-2273 (if in the US) and ask to be connected to iTunes Customer Service.

ITunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs? format

iTunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs?

I didn't mess with the iTunes Media folder previously, so I don't think that was the cause. Anyway, I manually fixed most of the songs, but I still can't figure out how to fix the movies that became listed as songs.
Here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I click on "Get Info" for one of the movies (which has ended up in the music section on iTunes):
There is no option to change the media kind to "movie" or "video" even though it is a movie and it still plays as a movie if I press play.

I have an app that appeared to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

Locked on an update can mean a couple of different things. So there are a number of things to try, but start with these.
If you have a "waiting" icon, try tapping on the icon and see if you can pause the update/download. Of it pauses, tap on it again and see if it will resume.
Try holding down on the icon until all of the icons on the screen wiggle. If the X to delete pops up on the waiting/stalled app - tap the X to delete the app. Tao,the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
You can also try this and see if the downloads will resume. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Hi...I have the OS X v10.6.8 but my QuickTime is not playing .mov files. How can I fix this?
Depends of the specific kind of file you are trying to play. MOV refers to the file container. Any data compatible with the system used to create the file can be placed in an MOV file. If you don't have the same codecs available on your computer to play back the file or if your version of the QT player does not expect expect the encoded data to be in an MOV file container, then it cannot/will not play the file. Use the Finder Info window, media player Inspector/Information window, or a dedicated utility to determine what compression formats were used to create the MOV file and then install the required codec(s) if available.
