Title setting change in iMovie HD 6

I recently upgraded from iMovie HD 5 to 6. I was in the middle of working on a movie when I did so. Bad move. I had been using the Music Video title for the movie, which placed the text flush left and close to the bottom of the image area. Now, when I add new titles, the position defaults instead to be indented from the left and bottom.
Is this something anyone else has noticed, or could it be something on my system? I have tried changing the font, and it doesn't have any effect. Any workaround besides returning to iMovie HD 5?
powerbook g4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Could it be that in iMovie HD5 you were using the Music Video title with the QT Margins checkbox checked?
This would move the title over to the left.
There does not appear to be the equivalent option in HD 6.
By the way, the titles that are very near the left edge, or any edge of the screen will often be clipped when the video is played on a TV because they fall outside the "Title Safe" area.

Can I universally change the title styles in my iMovie? I don't want to retype everything in the new style!

Can I universally change the title styles in my iMovie? They're all set in "Lower Third" and I need to change all of them to "Gradient White" and I don't want to retype everything in the new style! It'll take forever, as I have many titles in this movie.

Interesting. http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov9c5e9641f describes how to change a title. I tried selecting 2 titles then chaging the style but it didn't work for either. So it seems the answer is no (though it should be yes).

How to change the transition time for a title in the new imovie

With the new update I have lost how to do a simple task.
I have titles in the lower left hand corner ine a video (pictured below). I would like for the titles to change seamlessly, without blinking after each new title appears. Sort of like a digital clock ticking. So say there's a video clip for each day in August, I want the date to change without blinking and re-appearing each time. This was easy in the past version of imovie. But I can't seem to find it in this version.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The red box indicates that I have attempted to merge the title into the title that comes after to see if it blends the transition, but it still blinks before showing the new title.
Movie Version 10.0

Please take a look at the usage of the precision editor it's very powerfull as are a lot of functions in iMovie10.
http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#movf8b8fc9b2
(I hope it directs you to the English version). And of course I asume you have the latest version (10.0.3) which solves al ot of the earlier problems.
In case you understand some Dutch. I've produced a number of video-tutorials on the usage of iMovie10.

Part 5 2nd half explains the usage of the precision editor in detail.
If you don't follow my Dutch, google for iMovie10 tutorials and you will find lot's of video-tutorials in English.
Have Fun

Why won't title size won't change in iMovie 10.1

why won't title size won't change in iMovie 10.1

Please check Help >> System Info to find your catalog's location. Close Organizer. Go to this location and within the catalog folder, rename the thumbs.5.cache file to say thumbs.5.cache.old.
Now relaunch Organizer and let the thumbnailing complete. You should get your thumbnails back in no time.

Title set files not in correct physical order

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help. I have had a problem with a replication batch. The dvds play fine on some players but don't on others. The Master was checked for errors and came back as having its "title set files not in the correct physical order, a problem that may effect the playability". The discs were authored in DVDSPro 3 and I didn't think there was anyway to change the VTS order. If anyone can help it would be most appreciated as I need to supply a new ammended master.

15 times, eh, Jake?
I don't think so.
I know the approximate periodicy of this error in DVD SP generated output, and it's extremely rare. In fact, this "Title Set not in the correct order" rule (ID 420) of ImageAnalysis is listed by Eclipse as a DVD-Audio error.
In fact Dale, if you'd like, contact me through my website link below and I'll help you get this next submission perfect, at no charge - in exchange for letting me see just what the heck you did to that original Image!
You really need to let DVD SP generate a DDP Image and submit this next one already tested with Eclipse, and on DLT.
Let me know,

Iphoto - when exporting photos with their titles,iPhoto changes the manual sequence that I have given and imposes an alphabetical sequence

Mac mini
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 768 MB
Software OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
When exporting a group photos with their individual titles, iPhoto changes the manual sequence that I have given and imposes its own sequence (which seems to be alphabetical). The export dialogue box allows me to use my titles or to impose a numerical sequence.
How can I keep my titles and the sequencing that I had carefully worked out?

What you are missing is that files have no order - you view them using a program and that program creates the order
When viewing in an iPhoto album you can sort manually and iPhoto will display the photos as you sorted them - but when you move to a different program (the finder for example) you have a totally different set of sorts available - for example in the finder the same set of files can be viewed in alpha order, in size order, in date modified order, etc - none of those are inherent in the file but are sorts set under the view menu
So to meet your requirements you must export with file attributes that allow the finder view options to present your desired view - which is what volunteers here have tried to help with - even though it really does not involve IPhoto in any way

Overriding automatic time changes on iMovie

I am trying to get my iMovie images and music to change together. iMovie will often override the time I input to match the two together. Unfortunately it is sometimes wrong.
For example, I want an image to change at about 1.35 seconds. When I put in 1.3, imovie changes it to 1.2. If I put in 1.4, imovie changes it to 1.5.
It "thinks" that is the right setting, so it is changing it for me. I bought a mac because I was tired of micros&*ft "thinking" it knew what was best for me.
How do I override the auto time change feature and put in the times I want?
Thanks.

I want an image to change at about 1.35 seconds. When I put in 1.3, imovie changes it to 1.2. If I put in 1.4, imovie changes it to 1.5.
The image duration has to be entered in the Inspector as seconds and frames, not as a decimal. So, for example, if you are using the NTSC format each second is comprised of 30 frames (in reality, 29.97 frames). So if you want the image to be one and a half seconds you enter it as 1:15, which is one second and 15 frames. You can enter the time up to a maximum of x number of seconds plus 29 frames, such as 1:29 - you can't enter, say, 3:35 as that will actually represent 4 seconds and 5 frames and should be entered as 4:05 (note that a colon separates the numbers, not a decimal point).
Likewise with PAL projects which have 25 frames per second. For one and a half seconds you would enter 1:12 or 1:13 - not 1.5
It may help if you go to iMovie (in the menu) and click on Preferences. In the General tab in the window that opens, check (tick) the box against "Display time as HH:MM:SS:Frames". I think it's in the same location in iMovie '09 - I'm working in iMovie '11.

Urxvt terminal title set -- dynamic possibly?[solved]

Does anyone know how I could set urxvt's title set to say my $PS1, I tried declaring it in my .XDefaults but it literally says echo $PS1 in the title when I do that....
Or also I remember when I used xfce4-terminal I think it showed dynamically what was going on in the term title, is this achievable somehow?
I'm bash btw.
Thanks,
bladdo

I 'm sorry - I do not remember from where I grabbed it... Anyway - my urxvt window titles are changing dynamically. Don't forget to source your .bashrc after editing it though...
I hope it will help you,

At first I settled for it just showing my username/host/pwd in the titlebar. Then I really wanted dynamic, I looked and everywhere I saw online it said it was only achievable through zsh. Tami, your code error'd my term for some reason.
Eventually I found out how to do it
# urxvt title
case $TERM in
rxvt-256color)
trap 'echo -ne "\e]0;$USER@$HOSTNAME: $BASH_COMMAND\007"' DEBUG
esac
Will display as :
user@host: command
PWD and TTY can be added in but it looks to stuffed then in my opinion. Just change the rxvt-256color to any term and it should work for you too

Did you check the Zoom setting?
Have you tried a reset (reboot)? Hold HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears.
If it isn't Zoom and a reboot doesn't help try Settings/General/Reset - Reset all settings

How do I Find/Set/Change a Bluetooth passkey on a T61 laptop with the Lenovo US/Eng Vista OS image?

I purchased a T61 two years ago. It came with the Lenovo Vista Ultimate OS, US/English. The T61 has Bluetooth, which I never used until now.
I try to pair a cell phone and a PDA (both Palm devices) with the T61, and the devices ask for the T61's Bluetooth Passkey. I don't know what the passkey value is, nor do I see anywhere to set, change or enter it.
This is how I know the the Bluetooth device driver is working on the T61: 1- The BT icon shows in the taskbar, the BT controt panels open, and even in Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Bluetooth Devices, the phone name shows up. And strangely enough, at the bottom of the control panel, when the phone is listed (is discoverable), it shows "Paired: Yes", "Authenticated: No", attached image shows these values.
I'm stumped. Where do I lookup, set or change the T61's Bluetooth passkey?

Unfortunately that is not working. I've tried 0000, 000000, 00000000, 1234, and 123456 as the keys. No popups, no response whatsoever on the T61.
The devices seem to wait some timeout period and then a message "cannot connect to T61...". I don't have the exact message here in front of me, but can get it if need be.

The first G4 models were basically a repackaged/upgraded G3 & came in 350 & 400MHz models. This design was called PCI version. The next G4 models were AGPs. This link http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g4/index-powermac-g4.html has the specs/pictures of all the G4 models.

Using these links, you should be able to determine which model you have.
Removing the battery causes all settings in the internal memory to be reset, just like resetting the PMU/CUDA. See Mac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial

I have jumped from 5.1 to CC. When I open a file originated in illustrator 5.1 in CC it changes the CMYK breakdown. Have tried colour setting changes in Bridge but still have differences. Help!

Any warnings when opening the file?
You might need to reset all warnings in preferences.
Apart from that itlooks like your color management settings are set to convert into profile. This is absolutely not advisable.

What setting changes are to be made??

I am adding some .c files to my MAC application(cocoa), I am getting a lot of errors while compiling those files.

Sun Java Enterprise System Support Forum and the Directory Server's "Release Notes" [See docs.sun.com] is a good place to find this information. Also upgrade to the latest DS5.2 Patch 4.
One probable cause could be that either the BindDN or the SearchBase used by your application no longer exists in the upgraded server's setup. Please check the access log on the Directory server to pinpoint the culprit. The corresponding entry will have "err=32".
Examples:
SRCH base="dc=abc,dc=example,dc=com" ....
RESULT err=32 tag=101 nentries=0 etime=0
[Note: Tag 101 means the search base does not exist]
BIND dn="cn=user,dc=abc,dc=example,dc=com" ....
RESULT err=32 tag=97 nentries=0 etime=0
[Note: Tag 97 means BindDN does not exist]
Based on your requirements, you will either have to add the missing entry or upgrade your applications' configuration to use an alternative entry.
