Setting Floating Windows for Apps Such As Safari or DVD Player.

Is there a way to have a window in Safari, DVD Player or any other application be floating above other app windows? By this I mean I wish to have a window of Youtube, Netflix or a DVD Player movie float above all other windows while I work in other applications such as Word, Logic or Ableton Live.
It would be great if I could watch a movie or youtube video without the window going behind my other windows whilst I work. Right now I have to just resize multiple windows to view the media but that eliminates valuable screen real estate in my work applications.
Is there a hot key/shortcut to a window to make it float? A System Preference? Help me out friends.

I believe afloat does just what you want

    You can't. You can only PW protect apps that have that feature incorporated into the app.

  • Macbook a1181 cannot access System Preference or any apps such as Safari, iPhoto, etc.  How can I fix this?

    Hi, I recently purchased a used MacBook a1181 and cannot access anything.  I am new to Apple computers/laptops so I don't know if there is a simple solution or if it's maybe a HD problem?  I tried to go into System Preferences and nothing happens.  The dock (?) at the bottom also has a bunch of question marks. When I scroll over the question marks, I can see apps like Safari, iPhoto, etc. but I cannot open anything.  I also tried to go to About this Mac and can't get anywhere either.   Any ideas what could be wrong?

    " The dock (?) at the bottom also has a bunch of question marks"
    So usually that means that the applications are missing. It's like in a PC where the "Short Cut" link is broken.
    "When I scroll over the question marks, I can see apps like Safari, iPhoto, etc. but I cannot open anything."
    So just like when shortcuts are broken and for the same reason: applications are moved, renamed etc.
    and with this:
    "I also tried to go to About this Mac and can't get anywhere either. "
    Probably a bad install.
    "When I tried to re-install the OS, the disc would spin and then eject.  I tried several different installation CDs and even an external DVD player and each time the CD ejected out without installing. "
    What disks are you using? The originals would be Tiger and gray, 10.4.8 (Not the retail installer which would be 10.4.0.), Leopard, Snow Leopard. So 10.4.8 to 10.6.8 compatible.

  • Setting up windows for streaming

    I am looking for information on how to optimize windows for a streaming application
    I am working in a DAQ application where I need to acquire 4 channels with 12 bits resolution at 10 MS/s during at least 40 seconds. I'm using a PXI system with a PXI-1044 chassis, a PXI-6115 DAQ board and a PXI-8105 controller running Windows. I am using LabVIEW 8.2
    As expected, I am having some problems to maintain the acquisition going for 40 seconds consistently (sometimes I get to 40 seconds, sometimes it crashes before). Among other things I suspect Windows has something to do with this (I am also conscious that with a 80MB/s throughput I am pushing PXI bandwidth to the limit, but I cannot change this). Therefore I have stopped the antivirus and all programs that I can see in the task bar, but I would like to know if I can do anything else with Windows
    Thanks and... happy new year !  ;-)
    PS. I haven't got into detail with the acquisition technique used in the LabVIEW program in order to focus the thread in a single theme, but if anyone's interested I'd be glad to discuss it. I am using DAQmx and queues, and planning to play with software pipelining to see if I can get any advantage of the 8105's double core

    Sorry for taking so long but I was out of the office. Here goes the complete code in the attached ZIP file.
    The Main.vi is the top level as expected. There is also a version that tries to use pipelining (Main Piped) as my controller is a multicore processor, but I don't see any improvements
    Here goes a brief description of the application first, then the problems I am experiencing
    The goal... is to acquire four channels at 10 MS/s during 40s, processed them (the "algorithm.vi" which defines the processing is included, but this is not relevant now) and store the results to disk. The specifications oblige to process data as it is acquired, so post-processing is not permitted.
    The solution... Once the DAQ card is configured and the acquisition is "triggered", five modules run in parallel: one to control the acquisition time, one to acquire the data from the PXI 6115 into memory, one to process it, one to store it in a file, and one to monitor the queues. The three modules in the middle communicate through two queues: one to pass data from the acquisition to the processing, and another to do the same between processing and storing to file. A third queue is used to stop the acquisition
    The problems... I am not capable of running a 40s acquisition without an error :-o I succeed to do it with only one channel, but the system feels already quite in the limit (actually, if I try to get it longer it crashes around 43s). Of course if I increase to 4 channels I don't even get to 10s (the problem is different though, LabVIEW says it doesn't have enough memory to complete the operation. I think this might be because the acquisition queue gets too big, as the processing throughput is much slower than the processing
    thanks

  • Windows Movie Maker won't play on DVD player

    I have the OS7 now
    The instruction say that a burned MASTER disc will play on DVD players and most computers???
     I have used Mp4 and WMV formats with Windows Movie Maker, but none will play on DVD players but play well on computers???
    I had formally use the Windows DVD Maker and the final file was UBF which seemed to work on all players and computers. My DVD Maker will not allow completion of Movie, it  notes, " I need the proper codes to make it work"??
    I have looked on the Microsoft site for these support codes but cannot find them??? Windows Movie worked well on my Vista OS. What has MS done to screw up this software???

    You need to read the owner's manual for your DVD player to find out exactly what video formats it will play.  Then you must ensure you record your video to DVD in a format that is recognized by your DVD player.  The Windows 7 Windows Movie Maker
    may have a different default video format output that what you were using in Vista.  You have the option to specify the format of the video you record to DVD.

  • Problems burning a workout video for it to work on my dvd player? help

    I've just purchased ripped in 30 days by Jillian Michaels and I thought that I could burn it to a dvd and then watch it my tv but its not working. Any suggestions?

    In your case, you might want to consider purchasing a physical DVD.

  • Cant set up printer for apps wont accept printer code - dis/enab x3 nothing

    its saturday support closed need help

    aloha202,
    I will need a little more information to assist; it sounds like your printer code may have expired. To get a new printer code, you will need to disable and then re-enable Web Services. Make sure you register your printer code at the ePrint Center within 24 hours.
    I was an HP employee.
    Reminder: Please select the "Accept as Solution" button on the post that best answers your question. Also, you may select the "Kudos" button on any helpful post to give that person a quick thanks.

  • I have duplicated apps; safari, calculator, dvd player, dictionary & ical post Lion update. One of the duplicates in each case no longer works and won't let me remove them either with a message that states the os still needs them. Any ideas chaps? cheers

     

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.
