  • How to cancell  the american idol and the voice thats keeps on charging

    You could use the Flash server Administrator API getLiveStreams() and read the xml the server throws you with actionscript on your flash
    http://localhost:1111/admin/getLiveStreams?auser=username&apswd=password&appInst=application

    I would thow something like this.
    <result>
    <level>status</level>
    <code>NetConnection.Call.Success</code>
    <timestamp>7/13/2011 10:52:05 AM</timestamp>
    <name>_defaultRoot_:_defaultVHost_:::_1</name>
    <data>
    <_0>live1</_0>
    <_1>live2</_1>
    </data>
    </result>
    Then read the data node and get the number of streams. use some actionscript if data# >= 100
    then trace a message.
    I haven't tried this. but i think is posible.

  • When I was setting up the language Setting, I pressed the play/pause button three times and now the voice that talks you through everything speaks extremely fast. How do I get her to speak slower?

  • The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is always talking.  How do I make her voice go away and my IPAD work like it should.

    The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is talking.  How do I make the voice stop and my IPAD work again. 

    If you've turned VoiceOver on then see if triple-clicking the home button turns it off, and then change what Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home is set to.
    Otherwise, via 'the touch to select double-tap to activate' process you need to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off
    The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
    Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
    So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither

  • Where is the file that keeps track of which mail items were open?

    Searching for the file that keeps track of which mail items were open- sometimes it suddenly is shorter, forgets some of the items of mail that was open, in my 'in box' as it were.
    just happened to me- 15 emails I wanted to keep open till I answered them are now lost back in the mail stack
    any idea where i can find that, retrieve from a backup done last week?
    any trick to fixing this problem?
    hope so
    i gotta track down some of those emails, will be a huge chore to do it one by one
    thanks

    any idea where i can find that, retrieve from a backup done last week?
    Good luck with that; it's not likely to happen.
    any trick to fixing this problem?
    You could just reply to the email right away, rather than putting it off until later, whenever "later" happens to be. Or, you could also put your emails that have not yet been replied to in a separate folder, and move them out into your Inbox when you have replied.

    how do i shut off the setting that sends a text when i am in the car moving?, how do i shut off the setting that sends a text when i an in the car moving?
    I got a phone call and it ignored the call and sent a text message to that person "On my way can't talk right now"
    What the ****? I didnt ask it to do that. invasion of my proivacy ****** ********

    Instead of Ignore, you must have touched the button for Message. That will send a message from the phone, depending on what you have set. Check the User Guide for a better explanation. http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

  • I'm trying to delete a movie and it says...operation can't be completed because the item "     ".m4v is un use.  I've shut down the computer, closed out of everything etc.  I don't know what else to do?

    I'm trying to delete a video to free up space on my mac.  I've moved it to trash and when I try to empty the trash it keeps coming up with...."The operation cannot be completed because the item " .........  .m4v is in use".  I'm not exactly computer literate - I don't even know what the m4v is, but I've read some discussions saying to shut down the computer - which I did - nothing everything else I've found on the m4v is too technical for me to grasp.  Can anyone help me?

    Sorry, didn't notice that you cd'd into that directory. Can't explain why you can't delete it, but I don't do server or NAS stuff. You might want to repost to the Unix forum.

  • How should I find out the stuff that keeps freezing the display?

    Hi,
    I am using gnome-shell from testing repo on a laptop computer. The system(I do not know which part) has frozen several times in a same way. The whole display just suddenly stops reacting while I am scrolling down the web page in Chrome, opening a wine program, or something else. I have not figured out any pattern of its occurrence, so it's not repeatable for now. It seems that it's related to some modules or libraries used by Google Chrome browser or Wine because it mostly happens when I am interacting with Chrome browser.
    It seems that only the display is frozen. I could not enter the tty with Ctrl + Alt + <F1...F8>, but I could move the cursor with my TrackPoint mouse. The NumLk/CapsLk LED also reacts normally. Even the network is working - when turning off and on the hardware switch of wireless, WiFi LED shows like the system is trying to reconnect the WiFi automatically.
    If there's anything related Chrome, I guess one of the possible reasons is that when installing google-chrome-dev from AUR, I replaced libpci with libpciaccess in the depends array so that it won't cause a file exists conflict when installing.
    Another possible reason is xinput, which I use for TrackPoint scrolling.
    Now I am very curious in finding out what exactly it is that keeps freezing the display, but I'm not sure where to start. Could anyone give me some suggestions?
    THANKS

    thanks, but my SysRq and PrtSc are on same button, and when I press Fn + Alt + [PrtSc, SysRq], the system just recognizes as Alt + PrtSc. This is weird....

    When this happens, it may not be your system that is sending out the bad emails. They may have picked up your email address from someone else's Address Book and are sending out emails and spam using forged email headers.
    If you or someone you know can get hold of one of the bad emails, view the full headers, and you can sometimes see where it came from. You can try complaining to the ISP that runs that block of addresses.
    You may need to "cut-and-paste" the full headers into a new email and send it to the webmaster of the ISP hosting that block of addresses.
