Shortcut for moving forward and backward through Time Machine

It seems obvious that there should be keyboard shortcuts for moving backward and forward through time in the Time Machine. Anyone know how?

I can't imagine replacing a simple mouse click with something like
Cmd-Ctl-Shift-Fn12-page up
It's noticeable that the menu disappears when entering TM, meaning that the usual assignments of shortcuts in the KB menu have, at least for the present, unknown values, if any at all.
What kind of shortcut would take me back to December 25, 2007 anyway? The trackpad and trackpad bar work.
It's possible to open TM with a shortcut or script, but from there one is on the dark side.

IPod: Randomly skipping forward and backward through songs

I purchased my iPhone almost 2 months ago and have been using the iPod almost every single day without any problems. The phone has the latest update (1.1.1). Yesterday I was listening to the iPod and a call came in; the music faded out, the persons picture came up on the screen, the phone started vibrating, but there was no sound and i could not answer the call. The phone froze in this position while constantly vibrating. I had to reset the phone (hold power and home button) to stop this. Now every time i try to listen to the iPod (regardless if i listen to an album or shuffle songs) it will make it about 20 seconds into the first song, randomly pause for 3 seconds, continue playing, pause again, continue playing, then skip to the next song, play for 2-3 seconds, skip back, play for a bit then skip to another song, pause, then continue playing... this process continues on forever and will not stop. I can temporarly relieve it by manually skipping through 6-7 songs but then it will eventually start back up again.
I have tried restarting the phone multiple times, powering it off, but it does not help... any ideas?

So i fixed my problem.
I tried restoring the software on the phone multiple times with no success. It was just restoring the phone with a previously corrupt back up file. So I went into the iPhone preferences in iTunes and erased all the backup files then restored it. This puts the phone back to how it was when you first bought it i.e. all presets reset: weather, stocks, etc. but if you have all your contacts saved on your computer they will sync right back in so it is not too bad. This fixed the problem (and even some other minor issues i was having).

How can one page forward and backwards through a table?

I want to use mutli-pages in my web order search .But I don't know how to do?
Please help me!

If you are using CS4, there is a Command to create a Web Album... this does it automatically for you.
Otherwise, you can create this manually. Say you have 3 pages,
page1.html (is the index page of the album)
page2.html
page3.html
Therefore, using ordinary text links
Home would link to page1.html
Previous would link to page3.html
Next would link to page2.html
You would need to make adjustments naturally to each page as you move along with the gallery pages, changing the previous and the next links as needed. Below is a a basic example of setting up the links in a simple table structure. You would also then style the table layout as you see fit - yes, using css preferably :-)
<table>
<tr>
<td><h2>MY GALLERY OF PHOTOS</h2>
<a href="page3.html">Previous</a> | <a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="page2.html">Next</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<br>
<a href="../images/img_2401_jpg.jpg"><img src="../images/img_2401_jpg.jpg" border=0></a><br>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Here's an article on creating an album using the DW Command I mentioned earlier. You could create the album and then copy and paste the code into a current page if you've already designed on.,... not too difficult, I just tested it. You do however, need to have Fireworks to process the images.

You could also check out the Lightbox effect which is very popular:

Or do a google search for 'jquery'. There are different album effects using that framework as well.
Hope some of this helps :-)

Moving forward and backward in audio book chapters on M

I have a MuVo TX FM and I can't figure out how to move back and forth between chapters in a audio book. The chapter numbers are shown on the display. How can I skip chapters or go back?

THere are two ways to ff/rw within a track... see if one works better than the other.
While the track is playing, you can either;
A) press and hold the rw/ff button.
or
B) Press the select (center) button once. This will bring up the track's progress bar. From here you can move around within the track by using the touch wheel (just like you're adjusting the volume). I find this to be more accurate when trying to find a specific location.
Good luck.
Cheers!

How Can Viewers skip forward and backward between timelines!?

You can skip forward and backward through chapters that are on the same timeline but I can't skip backward to a timeline that came before the one I'm on. I thought this was an easy question someone must know the answer to this. I just need to check what I'm saying.
So I have 4 timelines
I put chapter markers at the end of each timeline so that people could skip forward to the next timeline if they wanted to. If there was no chapter marker at the end of the timeline then the timeline would have to be played to completion before going to the next. You would not be able to skip forward at all. The problem I'm having is that you cannot go backward to the timeline that came before.
So if I have a chapter at the end viewers are able to skip forward to the next timeline but they can't skip back.
Alright so Menu Remote settings do not work for Blu-ray discs either so you cannot use that setting to go backward from one timeline to the previous.
Is there anywhere to set that the first chapter of one timeline can somehow link back to the last chapter in a previous timeline or is it just impossible to go backward?
Isn't there anyone who knows how to skip backward from one timeline to the previous? I cannot find a action for this in encore.

Hi simonfrommount isa,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with the most recent iOS update. If you are still having issues with the connection or controls from your iPhone to your car stereo, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

Is there a way to use the common J-K-L keystrokes to play forward and backward in iMovie '11?

Is there a way to use the common J-K-L keystrokes to play forward and backward in iMovie '11? Most editing apps--like Final Cut Pro, QuickTime Pro, Avid, etc.--use this convention.

HT3775 I just upgraded my ipad to 6.0. I can no longer expand my audio files so that I can move forwards and backwards. I used to get a diagonal arrow to enlarge the screen and then have a bar that I can move to navigate. Can you help?

I just upgraded my ipad to 6.0. I can no longer expand my audio files so that I can move forwards and backwards. I used to get a diagonal arrow to enlarge the screen and then have a bar that I can move to navigate. Can you help?

Hi James,
I am listening to embedded training files on the Quick Time player (I think). They cannot be copied to protect the information. You only have the option of listening. I used to be able to click on the Q in the audio strip and it would provide a diagonal arrow and this would allow me to expand the bar to a full screen. I then had the bar which would allow me to navigate in case I wanted to listen again or in case I wanted to move forward. After my upgrade, I can no longer expand the strip to a full screen with the adjuster. Now I have not chance to take a break in listening to these audios and most of them are at least an hour long. Thanks for your help.

What is forward and backward shedule in planning

what is forward and backward shedule in planning ?
and make to order

Hi,
Backward scheduling is always carried out for both delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling. If backward scheduling determines a material-availability deadline or transportation-scheduling deadline that lies in the past, the system automatically carries out forward scheduling to determine a delivery deadline that can be confirmed.
Backward Scheduling
The system first carries out backward scheduling from the requested delivery deadline:
Requested delivery deadline
./. minus transit time
Goods issue deadline
Goods issue deadline
./. minus loading time
Loading deadline
Based on the loading deadline, the system determines two further dates, the transportation planning deadline and the material availability deadline.
Loading deadline
./. minus transportation lead time
Transportation scheduling deadline
Loading deadline
./. minus pick/pack time
Material availability deadline
The earlier of these last two dates (material availability deadline and transportation scheduling deadline) determines when a schedule line becomes due for shipping.
Forward Scheduling
If backward scheduling determines a date in the past as the date on which a schedule line becomes due for shipping or if the material will not be available on the date calculated, the system automatically carries out forward scheduling to determine the earliest possible shipping deadline.
For example, starting from the current date, the system calculates the loading deadline, the goods issue deadline, and then the confirmed delivery date. It does this by adding together the shipping times mentioned above

Mac book pro stops responding after Maverick OS restart. Currently have a circle with a line through it after 20+ hours. Tried to shut it down and use the Time Machine to restore but no response. How can I restore with Time Machine if it will not start?

sonjadg,
you can purchase a replacement pair of grey installation DVDs for your MacBook Pro from either Apple or iFixit. If Startup Manager is only showing an OS X Installer volume, then it sounds like the Mavericks installer had a problem midway through its installation process. To fix this, you’re going to need to erase your internal disk and reïnstall your original version of OS X from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD, use Software Update to get it back to 10.6.8 (presuming that your MacBook Pro originally came with Snow Leopard), and then restore from Time Machine.

Shortcut for moving between Panels on Modal Dialog boxes eg: Cell Options (OS X)

Is there an existing shortcut for moving between the tabs of modal dialog boxes. For example Cmd+Opt+'B' brings up Cell Options dialog but that is actually the shortcut for the "Text" Panel how can I navigate (using keyboard keys) to the other Panels {"Strokes and Fills", "Rows and Columns", "Diagonal Lines"}.
Note:
I realise I can create shortcuts for the Table…> Cell Options…> Diagonal Lines items but these shortcuts will not work in the context of the Cell Options Modal Dialogue box.

Hey Thanks.
For those who come looking b/s they had the same question:
As a bonus once one of these key sequences is pressed the tab heading area comes into focus so the arrow keys work for navigating tabs. So even for long list of Paragraph Style tabs which number greater than 10 still easy to navigate to them eleventh to someteenth ones.

Rolling start point of an effect forward and backwards?

I downloaded a series of effects plug-ins that I've laid in my timeline. However, I want to change the point at which certain elements within the effect occur. Is there a way to roll the effect forward and backwards within the video beyond where the elements just happen to occur when you drag and drop it into the clip?
The effects I'm working with are "static glitches" and create random occurring distortions. When I lay one in, I sometimes feel that a certain distortion would look better if the whole, pre-designed effect shifted back half a second for instance, but I can't figure out how to do that... Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! Is the only way of doing this by splitting the clip? One of the things I specifically need to do is have a distortion that happens later in the effect happen at the beginning of the clip. For instance, I like the distortion that happens three seconds into the effect but the clip itself is only two seconds long. Maybe I could extend the head of clip in another timeline so that it falls on the part of the footage later on that I want and create a compound clip that I then import into my timeline and trim to the appropriate length... but this seems so complicated for and roundabout for a function I feel like FCP X should have but that I'm just not seeing..??

Forward and backward pass - network diagram

Does anyone have a .mpt file that allows you to perform forward and backward pass and display the ES, EF, LS, LF, SL in integer values instead the date formats?

Pardon me for bumping in, but I am assuming you want to show the date number for ES, EF etc.
You can with some calculations in Number fields.
For example:
Number1 (Early Start No) = DateDiff("d", [Project Start], [Early Start])
Number2 (Late Start No) - DateDiff("d",[Project Start],[Late Start])
You can continue in the same manner to calculate the number of days between the Project Start and Early Finish and Project start and late finish.
The Total slack field is a numeric value (in days) so no conversion needed.
You can then alter the network diagram view and replace the values as needed with [Number1], [Number2] etc.

Since Installing a new hard drive on my 2008 macbook and reconnecting to to time capsule through time machine, I can only get backups since the install.
I receive a message saying identity of backup dis has changed and offers me the choice of either Don't back up or Use this disc.

Time Machine treats any new drive like a new computer. It starts a completely new Time Machine backup. So you now have two backups - a new one and all your old ones.
