Ringtone used in the commercials?

Has anyone noticed the absence of the ringtone used in the TV commercials? Have I overlooked it?

You have not overlooked it. What you see on tv commercials doesn't always reflect real life. The commercial also shows the web pages changing instantly at a touch...even with wifi, it takes time for them to load up.
The ringtones are woefully misbegotten on the iPhone -- but there is rumour that a iTUnes upgrade is in the works that will allow you to use your own ringtones.

TS3536 I still dont see a file sharing tab and I want to use it for my mixer app, I made some ringtones and thats the only way I can use it

I cant see the filing sharing on itunes and I was wanting to get some ringtones and thats the only way I can use them, where is the filing sharing thing at? even when I sync my phone I cant seee it

File sharing appears at the bottom of the device's apps tab i.e. the tab that you use to select which apps to sync to the device. Connect the iPhone to your computer, select it on the left-hand side of iTunes, and scroll to the bottom of the Apps tab on the right-hand side.

Hi
As the topic suggest. How do I create a ringtone using a mp3 instead of buying ringtones from iTunes?
Thanks

I've tried this method, but it's still not working for me, for some reason. I've got the 3GS. I followed the instructions, and the created ringtone is showing up in iTunes in the Ringtone section. When I connect my iPhone to my Mac, & it appears as a device in iTunes, my ringtone appears there... it just doesn't appear under the ringtone options on the iPhone itself... what am I doing wrong here? Am I looking for it in the wrong place?
Make sure to sync your ring tones.

I don't know how to program my DVR to edit out the commercials

I had heard that that feature was available with the DVR. Does anyone know how to do that?

There is no way to edit out the commercials. If you are watching a previously recorded show or are in a buffer for live TV, you can skip past the commercials. The skip button on the remote and be programmed to jump ahead 10sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 5 min. So set the time frame to skip and press the skip button until you are past the commercials. I then use the previous button to jump backwards to where the show started again. That can be programmed to the same time frames. Me personally, I have mine set to skip 30 seconds and jump back 10. With the average commercial break being 3 minutes, I press the skip button about 6 times very quickly, then press it until I'm into my show. Once in my show, I jump back 10 seconds at a time until either the very end of the commercial break or the start of the show.

How to create a ringtone using GarageBand?

Hi,
Is there any simple tutorials anywhere explaining how to create a ringtone using an iTunes track or mp3 music file in GarageBand?
I'm in the UK and cannot purchase ringtones from iTunes as yet.
Thanks in advance! David.

Here are some very simple instructions to create a ringtone in Garage Band. Drag your song(s) in from iTunes or from your CD which has been copied into iTunes. If it is an AAC protected file, Garage Band will disallow making a ringtone and it will tell you so.
• Cut the song to 30-40 seconds of the section you want.
• From the drop down menu, choose 'share' (not share with iPhone)
• Export to disk/desktop. Compress using AAC
•Change the file name from m4a to m4r
•Drag into iTunes
Have fun!

Downloaded themes,ringtones etc that the phone cannot work with

I am quite annoyed with the fact that the iphone does not even enable you to have any themes and downloaded ringtones that are like for example anime stuff(which I like) and other cool stuff,besides most phones like the nokia etc ,themes are downloadable and ringtones too.Why can't the iphone have themes and ringtones huh?It seems boring with the black screen.Also the only way to have these functions is to jailbreak the phone,which I don't intend to do anyway.

The iPhone could have custom themes, but this is probably at the very bottom of Apple's priority list if on the list at all. They have much bigger fish to fry.
In regards to ringtones, you have a number of options. All music available with the iPhone's iPod must be transferred to the iPod via the iTunes sync process - the same with every iPod. The same applies for transferring ringtones to the iPhone - ringtones can be transferred to the iPhone via the iTunes sync process only. Ringtone can be created manually with iTunes with non-DRM protected music or sound files with the ability to choose your chosen segment of a song or sound file to be used as the ringtone followed by being selected under the Ringtones tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

There are also a number of 3rd party utilities that provide for creating ringtones.

Creating ringtones using Windows Vista

I have two computers, one with windows xp and one with windows vista. I can create a ringtone using the window xp but not with windows vista. Please help!

I found this on another forum and it helped me create ringtones. Hope it helps someone else
1. Find a song you want to use as a ringtone.
2. Use whatever program you use to "clip" a section under 30 seconds long.(Audacity is a Freeware Program)
3. Double click the shortened file and it will go into the "Music" section of iTunes and it will start to play.
4. Right click on the file and choose the "Convert to AAC" from the drop down menu.
5. You will now have two of the same files in the iTunes Music Playlist.
6. Right click on one of the two and choose "show in (to locate the file) explorer."
7. Right click on the song with the m4a to m4r extension. You can delete the other one from that folder. If you don't see the file extension then you need to open your Explorer (myComputer) go to tools/folder options/view then go and make sure you have un-checked next to "Hide extentions for known file types".
8. Change the extension from m4a to m4r.
9 Go to iTunes and delete BOTH of the files from the playlist. Just make sure you click on "keep files."
10. Now go back to the folder you have the m4r file and double click it. It should go into the "ringtone folder" of iTunes.
11. Connect your iPhone, click on the "ringtone" tab and the song you need will be on the list. Check the check box and press the apply button lower right

Songs to ringtones sorry for the repetition

Ringtones. I realize this has been asked a lot and i have read other discussions but they have not pertained useful information for my situation. Is there no way to set up any song already imported on your iphone to a ringtone? I have made a few ringtones in garageband, however when i send them to itunes they send as a song, although they are only 30 secs. When i open itunes i cannot drag these ringtones into the ringtone folder, or select "create ringtone" because i did not buy the songs via itunes. Thus i made a playlist for my ringtones and synced them onto my phone, to find you cannot set songs as ringtones.... any suggestions??
thanks for your time and sorry for the subject repetition

If you have a Mac...
1) Pick your song you want to turn into a ringtone in iTunes.
2) Right click>Get Info or File>Get Info or Apple>I.
3) Go to Options when the Get Info window opens.
4) Click the check boxes to initiate Start and Stop time, manually entering the start and finish time of the song you want as a ringtone.
5) Now, hit Okay.
6) Next, go to Advanced>Convert Selection to AAC, this will create a copy of the song, but just the portion you want as a ringtone.
7) The copy will be right under the original in iTunes, you will see the difference in times with the selection you chose should be at a ringtone length, like :30 seconds or so. Right-click on the selection and choose Show in Finder, or File>Show in Finder, it should be an m4a file.
8) Simply click on the file name to edit it and change it to an m4r, this will change it into a ringtone to be recognized by iTunes.
9) Go back to iTunes, find the short selection of the song that you converted to a ringtone and drag it out of iTunes to your desktop.
10) It will make a copy of it and it should now be in your iTunes and desktop. Then, back in iTunes, delete the selection you just moved to the desktop.
11) Double-click on the file you dragged to your desktop and it should open up and play in the "Ringtones" section of your iTunes.
12) Sync.

How can I reset my IPAD 2 to resolve the fact that Apple will not let me use the APPLE ID and passwords that I want to use becasue they may have been used in the past year. I am very close to donating this contraption to the Good Will.

I have been an Apple User for almost two decades and have had no problems with my G4 Powerbook, my Intel MacMini, nor several other Macs as well as Windows 7 machines. However, the IPAD2 poses a problem of unfathomable disgust with the concept and implementation of the Apple ID. There is one for the computer, there is one for support, and there is one for itunes, and possibly another one for apps. There are different passwords for each. I am continually faced with notification that my Apple ID is incorrect or the password is incorrect. I have to keep an Excel spreadsheet with all of this unnecessary NANNY State protection matched only in pervasiveness by the Federal government.
I am told that an Apple ID can never be destroyed and replaced. Who dreamed that one up? I am told I cannot use a password that has been used in the past year. Why? By whose authority? I am not a walking encyclopedia that remembers every telephone number he ever dialed. Thankfully my cheap LG clamshell telephone keeps numbers and talks to Ford Sync successfully.
Bottom line is that the IPAD has become almost totally useless since I cannot change the several necessary passwords to anything I can remember because they are not novel enough. I also never seem to be able to keep the Apple IDs straight as they are too numerous to remember and I don't want to remember them anyway. Why? Even if you enventually get the ID right you have the wrong password and have to go through a merry-go-round of emails to change the password to something you have already used in the past year which is not permitted.
Has anyone out there used a competitive device with less cumberson overhead? Surely this is not the best American technology can produce.
Thanks for your comments.

Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

Hiding a column used in the custom view!

Hello! I would like to find out if there is any way to do the following: I have a view based on a table (Configuration Manager - Views). I specified to display 4 columns to show up in the View, so that we can modify the columns without going into the Database. In the "Default Display Expression" entry on the Info tab of the view, I've specified how these columns should be displayed on the UI. My problem: I don't want to display the fourth column on the UI at all, but I want this column to still be accessible by administrators via the view! Is it possible to specify somehow NOT to display this column, but still use it in the view? Thanks for the suggestions! Anya

Hello! I've actually created a separate view just to hide this fourth column, and we will be using this for the administration (relates to your point b). However, someone had asked not to use so many views! Do you know of any problems if several views are being used for the same table? In our case some tables have up to 3 views already. We use this view for the Metadata field, but the Metadata field is an option list (or controlled vocabulary in our terms). To enable more user-friendly selection, we are using DHTMLX Grid (dhtmlx.com) to display values in the View. The grid is displaying all columns from the view, by default! (Perhaps I need to check if I can somehow customize the Grid - however, I was hoping to do this from the View itself) Thanks!

Hello All...
Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
Thanks!

Thank you for the replies. Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems. I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work. I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic. When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones. This actually helped. I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems. I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac. I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed. Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else.
If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio.

The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

Hi tonys60181,
Could you please let me know what version of Adobe Acrobat are you using.
What all drawing tools are you unable to access?
Is this issue specific to one PDF file or all?
What exactly happens when you try to use any drawing markup?
Please let me know.

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message "The registry settings used by the I tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software Please reinstall

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message:
"The registry settings used by the I Tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing.
This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install I Tunes."
To my knowledge no new software has been installed. I have tried un-installing and re-installing I Tunes but I still

Can anyone offer any suggestions? Do I need to download a new driver?

I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

Materialized view not being used in the report

I have had a materialized view (MV) for a particular report. Recently, the report definition has changed little bit, so the existing MV is not being used by the report anymore. I copied the code Discoverer's SQL Inspection and recreated the materialized view. But still it is not working. Obviously, I am missing something at the database level. Does anyone have any idea? The database is 9i and Discoverer is 9.0.2. Thank you!

The SQL that you see from the Inspect SQL option will provide you with the SQL that Discoverer sends to the database. The database then may do a query rewrite to point to an available materialized view if available. This rewrite won't be seen from the inspect sql option. You need to check at the database level to verify if a query rewrite did in fact take place.
You may want to check the section titled "Query Rewrite with Materialized Views" from Ch1 - "Introduction to the Optimizer" in the Oracle9i Database Performance Tuning Guide and Reference, Release 2 (9.2), Part Number A96533-02, available at http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96533/optimops.htm#37287
