Ruh-roh, Why are Quicktime 1080p trailers are disappearing?

I'm a huge Apple Quicktime Trailer fan from both the website (http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/) or the Trailers submenu on iTunes. I was going to download the new Elysium Trailer (in 1080p) via iTunes when I noticed it just offered the Play feature and only in 480p or 720p. So not only do they not offer it in 1080p at all and including even newer trailers like the brand new Man of Steel trailer, but they've eliminated entirely the download feature that's been there since forever.
However older posted trailers by a few days still shows the download option and up to 1080p. UNLESS they have added a new trailer like the Man of Steel Trailer, so now all the previous trailers of Man of Steel are also stream only, 720p max, and no download option.
What is up with that??? Are they going to hold back that great content that has always been available going back to the late nineties? How can they go back to 720p??

Hey, that was great detective work, and I discovered that via another route in that HD-trailers.net also shows those same links to Apple Servers with the 1080p's, but it obviously is not a glitch because they are hidden across the board elsewhere on Apple products (iTunes, etc.)
http://www.hd-trailers.net/movie/elysium/
However, I have not succeeded in downloading and saving any of these quicktime flles via a quicktime type viewer. There might be a 3rd party solution but am still working on it.
I've got a thread going at MacRumors too with a variety of investigations:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1586552
Also I got a more formal reply from Apple Customer Service yesterday:
" I'm sincerely sorry for the inconvenience your experiencing with downloading movie trailers. After consulting my senior advisors they have informed me that you are longer able to download movie trailer you can however stream them."
So, again, this is no glitch and looks like a major change is underway. Oh well, it was a good run, and goes back to when Apple proffered the trailer for "Phantom Menace" in 1999. That's how quicktime got on the map and turned the tide away from Real Player and whatever else was available in those days.

Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle?

Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle? I'm running 10.3.9 and iCal v. 1.5.2. This started after I did software updates this week.
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I solved it in my case by going to System Preferences>Internet & Network>QuickTime>Advanced, then clicking the checkbox to Enable Flash. I also had to quit and restart iCal.
I think the Quicktime715 update that recently came out had something to do with it.
It seems that the black box is supposed to be a movie of a vibrating alarm clock, and apparently that movie uses Flash.
I hope this fix works for you too.

According to this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3525692), it looks like you are not able to share audiobooks through Home Sharing:
You can share MP3, AIFF, WAV, AAC, and radio station links, but you cannot share iTunes Store Audio Books, Audible spoken word content, or QuickTime sound files.

Why are Updates so large?

Why are iTunes updates for Windows so large in file size? Downloading a fresh version of iTunes + Quicktime is currently a 55mb download. However, the Automatic Updates that I am prompted for regularly are always around 65-70mb in file size. Why so big?
Is this a hint of poor coding for the Windows version of iTunes? A patch should be no where near the size of the original download, much less LARGER.
Thoughts?

Well, duh. The point is why. Designing software (that they know will have regular updates) without a patch system in-place is obviously a poor design choice.
And why the 'update' is consistently larger than the original full download is beyond ridiculous. I can download 7.6.1 from apple.com/itunes for 55mb, or I can let the automatic update run and be a 65mb download. Makes no sense.
I guess I can't expect a real answer to this (unless a representative from the Apple team is aware of why such a ridiculous decision was made) - but figured I'd rant about it anyway.

In Pages 5, why are page thumbnails different sizes?

So I'm using 5. And I must say I think it's brilliantly done after a long period of ******** about it. I guess I'm not asking of it anything it doesn't provide and what it does it does very well - though I'm puzzled by the behavior of selecting text via the keyboard.
Anyhow, that's not my question. I'm working with a long text document. I notice that as I work the page thumbnails become different sizes. It's subtle but it's clearly intentional. I reckon it's trying to tell me something but I don't know what. Haven't been able to find any info in the manual and was wondering if any of you clever people here might know. Thanks.

This is what I meant about how rude you are though. Your answer DOESN'T EXPLAIN ANY OF THE BEHAVIOUR myself or the other person were reporting. The only assumption that I can make is that you posted here for the sole purpose of implying that we are both mistaken or stupid.
How is this helpful at all?
How do you have 32,485 points when you are obviously more concerned with insulting people than helping them out? It puts the lie to the whole idea of "Apple Support Communities."
Also, I specifically informed you that your comments were insulting and unhelpful and politely requested you not post on this thread anymore or at least until you had some kind of actual information, yet here you are. Posting again, with no content other than the implied insult.
I'm not stupid. I know what a section break is, I know what a page break is. I'm a writer who has used innumerable word processing programs over the years and have been an IT worker for 10 years now.
I have a Pages document. It has no (or only one depending on your point of view), section(s). It has page breaks only. The pagination is set to start at "1" on the first page and proceed normally to the end of the document (300 or so pages). I am using Pages 5.5.2 on a brand new iMac. I have NONE of the previous or older versions/types of Pages on my computer.
The pages thumbnails on the side, do actually CHANGE SIZE randomly as I am editing the document. These differing sizes are NOT CORRELATED WITH THE BEGINNING OR ENDING OF SECTIONS. These size changes are also NOT CORRELATED WITH THE PAGE BREAKS (in case you were about to argue the similarity of page breaks and section breaks). As I work through the document and scroll up and down editing here or there, the size of the thumbnails RANDOMLY CHANGE SIZE. Sometimes this is correlated with me working on a section, sometimes I can work on a section and no change happens at all. The thumbnails that change size often change back again when I scroll back to them later on.
So please ... Try to act like a decent human being and either help out, or go away. STOP POSTING THAT WE ARE WRONG, when you DON'T in fact know we are wrong. STOP INSULTING ME by assuming I am stupid.
Why are you even here if you don't want to actually HELP anyone?
To anyone else reading this: I am having a real bad time with this fellow who is just the most insulting person I have met for a while, however many of my posts about him are being deleted. If anyone knows (including the mods of this forum) of the proper way to REPORT or get rid of a troll/abuser like him on Apple Support Communities or a place to report his behaviour, please let me know.

I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users. Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS

I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users. Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS. When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

Hello RumDog,
I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
Where are my iTunes files located?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
You can then:
Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

Have to disagree with you there, Court Kizer. The Bullets&Bones site is, in many ways, where I really learned how to use GarageBand.

Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?

Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?
My coworkers and I are not seeing a animation in the preview pane in Adobe Bridge CS6 even when clicking the play button in the preview window. However, we do see a graphic of the first frame and one person sees 1 frame when clicking play and one other frame and then the animation stops, however, that is not the complete animation.
I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
My coworkers are using a mac.
One coworker has apple OS Mountain Lion with a Intel Quad-Core Xeon – 64 bit system.
Is this fixable or in the works as a patch? Otherwise we have to open these docs in a browser in order to view them properly.

I've just come to the realization that some animated gifs do play fine and others do not. A coworker of mine suggests that if it's an animation made via Adobe Photoshop, it'll work in bridge but will not if it's made using something else.

Hello Majorie,
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Also, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive?
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.

Disc Burner. Why are some files not readable or writeable?

Hello,
I am trying to backup my friends computer files on a beige G3 (233 MHz). I am burning about 6 DVDs of AIF music files. Most of the files are about 30 - 40 Megs in size. Often I receive error messages on particular files that read:
"The operation cannot be completed because some data cannot be read or written.
(Error code - 36)"
Followed by the choices: "Stop" or "Continue".
I have a bad feeling that my startup disk is too small but I am not sure.
Most of the files work fine. However some of the files cause disc burner to not be able to use them in the disc image before I burn. Why would this be?
Here are the specifications:
Computer: beige G3 with two hard drives (one SCSI and one ATA hard drive) and a Pioneer DVR-110D DVD writer which is Apple supported (Apple system profiler indicates Apple supported on this DVD writer). My blank DVD disks are Sony Vermatim DVD-R (1 - 16x speed support). Although I think my beige G3 only writes them at about 2 or 4x.
I am using OS 10.1.5. My startup disk which has OS 10.1.5 in it is a 4 GIG SCSI disk. Is this big enough for a startup disk (for creating 4.5 GIG DVDs)? My files are on the second hard drive which is a 40 GIG ATA disk.
I have a bad feeling that my OSX startup drive is too small for disk burning - it is only 4 GIGs in total and OSX Disc burner (Disc copy) is first making a disk image on my startup volume before it burns it. Perhaps that disk image is too large for the startup volume. Is there any way I could ask OSX to put this disk image on the second larger hard drive instead (not the startup drive?).
Here is my process (I hope I am doing this right - I am new at this):
1. I first insert a blank DVD-R
2. A message pops up asking my if I would like to create a blank disc image for this disk (I think this is the typical Disk Copy utility window. I say "yes" and give it a name and choose the "DVD-R or DVD-RAM" option. (I am not sure if there are other important settings to choose here or better settings to use but I guessed the other options that seemed obvious. A blank disk image is created with an icon that looks like a DVD disk.
3. Then I drag my chosen files to this blank disc image. It takes about 30 minutes to copy over. Thats when I receive the error message that some files couldn't be "read or written". The other files work fine but it would be nice if they all worked.
Why would some files not be readable or writeable?
4. Then I choose file/burn in the top menu and the DVD is created. This takes another 20 - 30 minutes. At the very end of the process another message pops up saying:
"Sorry the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (error code -28)" Followed by an "OK" button.
However all the files that made it onto the final DVD are fine - its just that its not all of the ones I originally chose in the first step when dragging to create the disk image.
Am I doing this the right way?
Why are some files not "readable or writeable" as it indicates in the error message?
Is my 4 GIG startup disk too small for this? or are the music files possibly corrupt? or could there be some other possible problem?
Thanks

To follow up, I have some good news. After following your advice Kappy, it now works very well Thanks! Instead of using the 4 GIG volume for the OS, I am now using an 8 GIG partition on an 80 GIG drive. So now the OS has some room to operate. No disk errors occured on my first DVD
Now there was one problem. The second DVD burned gave me an error. I am not sure why but I am going to guess that because I had to installed the OS onto an 8 GIG partition maybe the OS needs to be rebooted in between disk burns because although 8 GIGs is certainly greater than the 4 GIGs I gave it last time, it still isn't a lot of space - maybe just enough to do one DVD at a time. Thats only a guess. So I rebooted to see if that clears the system out ready for the next DVD and I am trying to burn the second DVD again. If I remember I will report back. In any case, yes, this seems to be working. I hope this second DVD burns well too.
Thanks Kappy

Why are both SQL_ID and PREV_SQL_ID null?

session A is blocking session B.
it was row-level lock.
But, why are both SQL_ID and PREV_SQL_ID null in session A?

Well, what do we know?
Session A must have an uncommitted transaction.
That uncommitted transaction is blocking session B.
But session A could well be doing nothing now, could be churning away doing some sort of processing outside of the database (java client you said), might well be off doing something elsewhere in a distributed transaction.
Who knows?
Not necessarily the database.
If you have ASH licensed, you might, might get a better picture of what session A was doing by looking at DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY but as this is sampled data and your statements might fly in and out, it might not be helpful.
Note that even if prev_sql_id or sql_id were populated, these might not be the statements responsible for the lock.

I do not have many messages but my iphone 5s says messages take up 4.6GB of space. When comparing with friends who have many more message, less than 1 GB is being used on their phones. Why are mine taking up so much space and how do I correct that?

I do not have that many messages on my new iPhone 5s (maybe about 15 conversations and only one or two going back a little ways) yet when I go to Settings, Usage it shows that my messages are taking up 4.6GB of space. When comparing with others (some who have hundeds of messages) they are using under 1GB for their messages. Why are mine taking up so much space??

I found a post with this solution that worked for me - .Do a backup, then download ibackupbot. It lets you look into the contents of that backup. Look in system files>mediadomain>library>sms>attachments. I found a ton of huge files related to long deleted texts. ibackupbot let me delete all that old crap. I then restored the phone with that now modifec backup and Bingo! freed up 9 GB. No problems.
But note, if you are not technically inclined you probaly don't want to be digging around and deleting back up files. You delete the wrong thing and you could jack up your phone badly. Be careful.
