Same format, different content?

I'm preparing to create 12 DVD masters for duplication. All the DVD's will have an identical format, but different content, and I want them to all behave the same way.
Each DVD will have 2 menus, 14 songs with singalong lyrics, and 2 "wallpaper" graphic stills.
I want to build the first one, using generic titles for the files (song01, song02, wallpaper01, etc.). I'd like to then use that as a format for the following 11 DVD's by giving the new files the same names, and then typing in the new titles in the menu buttons.
Is this a do-able approach, or will I need to build each DVD from scratch?

You should be fine, (unless you are using stories or
markers which are based on time and the new assets
are different lengths or menus different layouts .
The songs will have different lengths, and there will be 4 "medleys" of 5 songs each which will have markers where each new song starts. Juding from your comments, it sounds like that will negate repeating filenames with assetts that have different lengths and marker positions.
Dang.
The menu layouts will be the same, with different song titles for the buttons.

I gave my wife my old iPad and it has the same name as my new one. How do I change the name of the old one to allow to have different content on our iPads?

I gave my wife my old iPad when I bought an iPad 2. Both devices have the same name. Will this affect backups of our different contents?

It's easy to rename each unit. When you connect your iPad and it syncs, the unit will appear on the left of the iTUnes screens just click on the unit there and you can rename it. You should do this immediately so you can see which unit was backed up by it's name. You can sync as many decices as you want in one iTunes library and you can even share Apps as long as you're going to sync both from teh same iTunes account. My household has 2 iPad 2s and we share our apps, and we also share downloaded books, magazines, music, etc.......

How do i back up 2 different devices with the same ID but different content, without losing any content?

I have 2 iPads but just one ID. I use the iPad 2 and my daughter uses the mini. Both have different contents, as her mini contains a lot of videos that she's taken. Niw, I just bought an iPad Air and want to essentially transfer my iPad 2 contents there and also transfer my daughter's mini contents to that iPad 2. If I back up both to the same computer, will I have access to both sets of content and transfer the data to whichever device as I see fit? I just want to make sure so I don't lose any of her content (especially).
Thanks!

Using iTunes on a computer, be sure to set the backup(s) to be stored locally and not the iCloud for efficiency's sake. If all devices belong to the same AppleID, each one will store its backup on a separate file, and if appropriate, you can choose any for a restore as needed. As shown in Diavonex pic, the backups are listed in Preferences / Devices. Hover the cursor over each and a popup will appear detailing which device it belongs to. And you can keep, if needed, more than one backup of a device: control-click on the backup to preserve and choose Archive from the menu (Older backups get overwritten otherwise).

HT1386 Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

You can share a library with as many devices as you want but they cannot have seperate subsets like you wish. They would all have access to all information in the library. You could "Manually" sync content to each device by doing the following:
On Mac: iTunes > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
On Pc: Edit > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
To manually sync data from iTunes to devices see article below:
 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
If you do not want all devices to have access to all the media from the main library, you would need to create a library for each device. See the article below for more info:

Hope this helps.

Load different content in same page

Hello,
I am putting together a css site and have my css file working
and an html file that sets up my page how I would like. however I
don't have the nav bar working in an ideal fashion. Is it possible
to have different content load into the content area of my one html
file based on user nav menu selection? If it is not already clear,
I am new to this and any help is truly appreciated. Thank you,
John
btw,I am using CS4 design premium.

It's a bad idea for all the reasons we have already
mentioned.

Can you save your own theme and button set up so I can use the same format

Can you save your own theme and button set up, so I can use this same format for similar content. I want to keep the button content and the theme the same without having to create it everytime? I am trying to streamline the process for multiple dvd's with the same menu and buttons but different content. Does that make sense?

I am only new to this caper too, but I am pretty sure you can save a theme as a favourite by pressing the "save theme as favourite" button under file. If you have edited an existing theme but don't want to lose it, make sure you untick the replace existing button.

Same image, different sizes

I need to export the same image in different formats, for iPhone, iPad, Web etc.
Actually, I import into one frame and then - Copy/Paste into/Fill Frame Proportionally - on the other frames.
Is there a simple way to do this in one shot? I can write a script to do this, but I was wondering if there was some sort of Command I was missing…
Thank you

Are yout talking about Alternative Layouts with the same content?
Use the Content Collector and Placer tools and use the same image or content several times. If you work with object styles (as you should ALWAYS do) you can specify a auto fitting property in that style.
With Liquid Layout you can specify the behavior of any frame how it resizes if the page gets or has different sizes.

How do I use iTunes on one computer to manage two iPads with different contents?

I just bought an iPad Air 2 and want to use it with iTunes on my MacBook Pro. No problem so far! However, I want to continue to use my "old" iPad 2 for my wife and want to keep managing it as I always have using iTunes on my MacBook Pro. The thing is that I want to make it possible for the two iPads to have quite different content to allow for the different needs and tastes of my wife and me. How should I go about this?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Brett,
Thanks very much for the information.
I took a look at it but it seems to be aimed solely at "media" on an iPad, i.e. movies, music, TV shows etc. This is fine, but I also want to be able to deal with all the apps on each iPad too, so that when I connect each iPad to my MacBook through iTunes, the synching process works just like it always has for my first iPad (an IPad 2). I don't mean that I want all the apps on both iPads to be the same (my wife doesn't need all the apps that are on the iPad 2 at present), but I do want to be able to add/remove/update media and apps on each iPad, and update the iOS on each iPad.
Basically, I guess, I want a situation whereby when I plug in either of the iPads, iTunes recognizes each as a separate device and has a totally separate "library" (backup?) of music, movies, TV shows, etc. and — most importantly — apps. Is that possible?
Regards,
Chris

HT4859 I have an iPhone 5 and have just set up the iCloud for it. I also have an iPad with different content and I also want to connect it to iCloud. Will I lose everything that's on my iPad or iPhone or do they sync together without losing anything?

I have an iPhone 5 and have just set up the iCloud for it. I also have an iPad with different content and I also want to connect it to iCloud. Will I lose everything that's on my iPad or iPhone or do they sync together without losing anything?

The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

Why in Windows 8.1 do I have 2 different Profiles with identical default folders but each with totally different contents?

I want to backup my email messages and archives. I intend to them put into my 'Documents' folder for 'Cloud' backup and also into an external hard drive which I have always used in the past and, as a 76 year old with a new computer, 8.1 in place of XP and TB instead of Outlook Express, I just feel more confident about my external hard drive! I have TB 31 and Windows 8.1. I have set my computer to show 'hidden files and folders'. In username/AppData/Local there is a TB folder with 'Profiles' and it has my XXXX.default folder - but it only has a limited number of files and folders (Cache/cache2....). In username/AppData/Roaming there is also a TB folder with 'Profiles' and it has my same XXXX.default folder - but this contains a completely different and far more extensive collection of files and folders (4 different folders plus several MAB and SQLITE files and others). Why do I have two identical default folders with different contents? Do I have to save both of them? Can someone please explain/help, preferably in words that this 76 year old might understand.

Thanks Matt. Reassuring to this elderly user! I'll make sure I back up my Profiles xxxx.default folder from the Windows Roaming directory - but should I back up the (different!) TB contents from the TB Profiles directory in Windows Local as well?

Sent e-mails do not deliver in th same format

Using windows 7 with aol, I recently have been sending e-mails that do not arrive in the same format that I sent. Spacing is out of line, columns are out of order and the page is almost unreadable.

Hi mjmarcus,
Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation. You might want to try from another browser as well so you can see if this issue is only happening in Firefox. I'd image that there is just some extra encoding being added to your emails if you are using the wysiwyg editor.
Hopefully this helps!

QuickTime Player 10.1 no more includes the ability to save a movie file in the same format as the original movie after editing it? No, it doesn't!

Since upgraded to Lion, I have to wait for QuickTime Player 10.1 to "CONVERT" every file that I edited in it.
Yes, it might save some disk space for me.(Which is not always the case though.) But it also takes almost 10 times or more as it did when back on Snow Leopard with QuickTime Player 10.0 there I could save any file in the same format as the original movie WITH NO NEED TO CONVERT IT.
Now I have to wait like 10 minutes to delete just a few frames.(The time it takes depends upon the original size of that movie. The larger the longer.) And guess what? If you have two clips originally split up from a movie and sperately getting saved(converted actually) with a loooooooot of time, and you naively added one of them to the other's end and then saved the finished one. It converts AGAIN! Doing so back on Snow Leopard with QuickTime Player 10.0 only takes you even a few seconds only!
Seriously, are we eating Apple or dirt this time?

My existing movies are all the following types straight from FinalCut
Apple Intermediate Codec, 1920 × 1080, Millions
16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
This particular movie is 6.66 Gb
The new Quicktime player in OS Mavericks converts these to the following format:
Apple ProRes 422, 1920 x 1080
Linear PCM, 16 bit little-endian signed integer, 2 channels, 48000 Hz
And a movie size of 6.48 Gb
It seems obvious from other forum posts this is a planned move so that everything is the "new mobile device" ready state/format. To use Marc Speth's post as material....
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23749558#23749558
this is probably about dumbing down desk top OS to that pf iPhones and iPads. This is not what I paid good money to own a Mac Book Pro for....
Today I rolled all the back to Snow Leopard. Really good move...... All those new features hey? I lost the ability to work in spaces and of course the whole Quicktime debacle.
The rolling back process was easy, restored from a point prior to installing Lion and Mavericks and the only issue was my iPhoto libraries. Thank my stars that I still had back ups that I had not converted yet.... viva la Mavericks...NOT. Apple can keep it.
Unsure if you are just venting or if there is supposed to be a question here. Basically, I assumed this to be Apple's idea of an improvement. That is, I really believe the ProRes 422 codec is a better intermediate codec than the AIC codec but most of my old HDV camcorder family tapes were imported by iMovie (for compatibility with my wife's non-FCP computer configuration) and, like your content, is/remains stored as AIC/PCM MOV files. At first I thought this might be a generalized change affecting all QT X based apps but when I went to check the latest iMovie v10.0 update, became confused when I noted that AIC source files were not automatically updated to ProRes 422 and continue to play natively in the iMovie source media viewer.
I guess this is supposed to be a logical evoluption and we were supposed to have seen the "handwriting on the wall" dating back to when Apple's first released the free ProRess "player" ProRes 422 codec. Still, it would have been nice if Apple had given some warning during the last few years so users could plan and prepare for such a drastic change. For the moment, I am just thankful that AIC remains, at least temporarily, supported nativelyby the iMovie video editor under Mavericks. Thank goodness for small favors.

No Picture, Same Format

I have 2 MP4 video files on my PC (OS Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit). The first one is 23.0 MB/ 09:57 minutes long. The second 373 MB/ 01:27 minutes (hour and 27 mins long). I have copied both of them to the miniSD memory card (1 GB) on my Nokia 6700 mobile (via USB cable). Windows Explorer in my OS converts the MP4 files into WMV files prior to copying the videos to my mobile. The 23.0 MB video files plays with sound and picture on my mobile, but the 373 MB file has sound but *no* picture. How come 2 video files of the same format (WMV) behave differently? Hope somebody can help me.
Thanks
Solved!

Hi drz22,
Even when files are of the same format, the audio and video maybe converted and coded differently. Are your MP4 files completely identical? Have you tried converting it into aother playable format for your device to see if that works?
Video formats that work on the Nokia 6700 are
MPEG-4
3GPP formats (H.263)
Let us know how you get on.

Hi haZey
I downloaded and installed Movavi Video Converter (http://movavi.co.uk/videoconverter/) and converted the hour and 27 minuter long mp4 video file to a mpeg file. Copied it to my Nokia 6700 and it plays with picture and sound! Only one disadvantage, the Movavi Video Converter I downloaded is a free 30 day trial version and it puts watermarks on the converted videos. It would be nice if there was a free video converter like Movavi that doesn't put watermarks on converted videos.

Export webi to excel with the exact same format

Hello expert,
I develped a webi report, but when I exported it into excel file, its format is defferent from WEBI report, such as text for legend with multple lines in webi presented in one line in excel, there are a few descrepency. please tell me how can I export webi to excel with the exact same format?
Many Thanks,

Hi,
There are options for the "save as excel" step . either a) for formatting , or b) for data
these should help.
The reason why there are 'undesirable' rows (also, merged rows / columns) is because your report document has table outlines which have been positioned 'by eye'.
When the rendering algorythm outputs it content, it's looking at pixel-level , so the relative position of borders can get messed-up. It's mainly due to slightly sloppy formatting.
