View settings for individual sidebar items

Is there a way to save the view settings for individual sidebar items? For example, always have "Documents" open in list view and always have "Applications" open in column view. Finder seems to always use whatever view setting I just used previously for every Finder item (except Photos, which will always display in icon view).

If you hold down the Command key (the one with the cloverleaf looking thingy) and click on an item a new window will open with whatever settings the item had last time it was used. If you hold down the Option key and click on an item, its window opens, with whatever settings it had, and the original Finder window closes. Otherwise just clicking an item in the Sidebar opens the item in whatever format the current window has.

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

I hope this discussion can be revived. I have the same problem. There seem to be quite a few Japanese sites that don't bother specifying their encoding. Perhaps they are older and from a time when it was not necessary to adhere to standards. Examples: http://www1.plala.or.jp/CUE/cave_yozawa.html, http://chigaku.web.fc2.com/saitama/sanchi/youzawa/youzawa.html. Happy to upload screenshots, but how?
Is there a way to tell Safari what encoding to use if the web page fails to do that?

When I open TB, under "Accounts", it only shows the option "Create a new account". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.

When I open TB, I no longer see any information about the TB account I've used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only "Accounts" -- "Create a new account - Email, Chat, Newsgroups, Feeds". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.
Also the main menu does NOT show "Email - Read messages, Write a New Message" or "Advanced features", etc..
The actual emails pertaining to the TB account I've used for years are still present under the "Users --> xxxxyyyy --> AppData --> Roaming --> Thunderbird' folder.

Change view "Settings for Infosets": Details

Hi,
I would like to know why there is a value of 100 under the heading Settings for Infosets in BW when you go to the 'Change view "Settings for Infosets": Details' screen. What does it mean and what value must I input there?
Your assistance is urgently required
Thanks,

Hi Josef I'm not entirely with you on this one.
When I look on the device Apple TV in iTunes, everything I have streamed to apple TV from iTunes is grayed out but when looking at the photos tab which I have synced is not grayed allowing me to change whatever I want to sync. Is this different to yours? or I'm I misunderstanding your point.

View Reports for individual Collections

Hello,
Is there a way to view Reports for individual Collections? When I review my Usage Reports or look at Reports within the PSM I only get a break down of total user actions per day for the whole site. I don't see a way to view data for just a single Collection. It would be extremely helpful to me and my faculty if we could see reports or stats for specific Collections. For example, if I could see total subscriptions and downloads for HIST1010. It'd be even better if we could view totals for whole months rather than each day of the month but at this point any data about a whole individual Collection would be great. Any help in viewing the data in this way is really appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Syd,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply. I was able to use your directions to pull stats for the last few weeks for the faculty member who requested this info.
My dream (if Apple is reading) would be to view monthly stats and have that information attached to each course so faculty members could view and sort that information on their own. This would be especially helpful because as our site continues to grow and I continue to encourage faculty to manage their own content, the ability to access the data on their Collections would provide great feedback on how their ocntent is being used. Being able to see how frequently the content they're taken the time to make is being used could be empowering.
Anyway, thanks again for assisting with how to access the data that is currently available.
Best,
Nikki

How to save view settings for shared library

Just wondering if there is any way to have iTunes remember the view settings for a shared library? The library is shared through home sharing. I can change the view settings for TV Shows so that episode number etc is displayed. However, this change is lost when itunes is restarted. This is for latest iTunes on windows 7.

IPhoto '11 Saved Slideshow not saving settings for individual slides

Please, need help in iPhoto '11 with Saved Slideshows. I will try rephrasing my question as I received no answers when I posted yesterday. I create my Saved Slideshow by choosing File>New>Slideshow. It then shows up at the bottom of my Source List under Slideshows. I am trying to have individual settings for each slide: timing, transition, and Ken Burns effect. I check each box in the "This Slide" menu and type in what I want. When I exit the Saved Slideshow the first two settings are saved and as I left them, but the KB box is no longer checked. It works fine when I click "Preview." I have carefully read all the forum discussions dating back to last fall and see that I am not the only one with the problem. Like others I noticed that the KB effect won't "stick" only on certain slides, mostly Landscape images. KB settings for Portrait images seem to "hold." I'm not a novice in creating Saved Slideshows. I've done this in iPhoto '08 with no problem at all. I reported this to Apple as a possible bug. I feel like there is now no way I can make the slideshow I want to burn to a DVD to share with family and view on a TV. As far as I can tell you can't do KB effects for individual slides in the latest version of iDVD without having made a Saved Slideshow in iPhoto first. Can anyone help me? I am so frustrated.

I am 99% sure that this has something to do with how NEF files work. If I understand them correctly, the original raw data is stored in one portion of the file and then versions of the file are stored within it (these are the 'versions' that you can make in NX2). The versions are just whatever mathematical transformations are applied to the raw data to get the version of the image that you want to see. It is a brilliant way to store information and many versions of photos (different sizes of crops, b/w, colour, sepia, etc...) in their highest possible resolution without taking up an inordinate amount of disk space. The raw data are huge, but each version only adds a tiny bit to the size.
The problem with iPhoto is that it can only see the raw data - not the metadata containing all of the transformations to get the edited version of the photo. This means that if you load the photos into the iphoto library as nef files and then edit them with an external editor (i.e. NX2), the files will be edited, and when you open them again in NX2 from iPhoto, then you'll see the edits, but the edited version will not be visible in iPhoto. If you work with NX2 and iPhoto (as I do), you basically need to save your edited versions of files as .jpg or .tiff and then re-import them into iPhoto. It is a bit of a pain, but I am sure that it could be fixed in a future version of iPhoto.
Cheers.

Same (global) view settings for all EXISTING playlists (iTunes 10.3)

I guess some folks like to individually configure the columns of each and every of their playlists. But I like uniformity ... How can I apply global settings to all of my MANY existing playlists, like, let's say, Coverflow plus a certain selection of non-default columns.

Maybe I should add that I do know global view settings are NOT a feature of iTunes 10.3. So it's not a matter of "where is the button I have to click".
I also know that Apple Scripts exist as workarounds, but unfortunately I'm using Windows XP.
Therefore, it's a question for the real experts amongst you, as some serious iTunes-tweaking is involved, either in Windows Registry, or in some hidden config-file.
The most important question, though, is: why on earth are global view settings not a natural part of iTunes since Day One.

Setting format and format options in Output module settings for render queue item

Hello,
I am unable to set the "Format" and "Format options" for video in output module settings programatically using After effects apis.
I referred the after effects cs3 sdk guide for the apis.
I find apis for all other options in the "outputmodule settings " like :
AEGP_SetEmbedOptions
AEGP_SetOutputChannels
AEGP_SetStretchInfo
AEGP_SetSoundFormatInfo
But there is no api listed for setting the options available in the "Format" tab and "Format options" tab.
The "Format" tab and "Format options" tab is available in the dialog that opens when user clicks on the Output module settings for the render queue item.
The format tab when clicked shows a drop down list with aff different formats. By default "Video for Windows" is set.
The drop down list contains following format options
Adobe Clip Notes
Adobe Flash video
Quicktime movie
Video for Windows
I need to be able to set the "Quicktime movie" option in the Format tab programmatically and then set the compression type as "Animation" in the compression settings programatically using the api functions available in AE CS3 SDK
Please suggest the suitable api to do so.
I need to write my own plugin to export to Quicktime movie using the after effects apis.
I follow below steps to do so.
1. AEGP_InsertMenuCommand and add export option to AE with my own plugin name
2. In the command hook, select active item using AEGP_GetActiveItem
3. Add it to render queue
4. Set the output module settings for 0 th output module using
suites.OutputModuleSuite1()
5. Use different functions from suites.OutputModuleSuite1() to set the output module settings like EmbedOptions,StrechInfo etc.
6. Till this step, I am doing it right. But I am not able to find any api for setting Format options using suites.OutputModuleSuite1()
I also checked all other suites available for setting FormatOptions but no luck.
Please help.
Thanks,
-Namita

Hi Namita,
I am experiencing the same problem.
I am using AE CC SDK, and I am unable to change the outputmodule format to any of the other movie format types (mov, mpg, flv, etc.).
It is always set to "avi"
I even compiled and ran the Queuebert example in the SDK, and there I get the same problem: the path extension is always left on ".avi"
Does anyone know how to change this?

Saving AVL view settings for all users

Hi,
I am working on web dynpro abap application which shows alv results of more reports (you will select report and it will show the alv table result).
I have to use some standard reports for this, so I copied it to Z report and modify it so this is possible. Problem I have is that is standard report the output have maybe 10 columns, but the table I got from the report has maybe 26. I want to limit shown columns on the ALV with settings of view for alv, but the assignment is only possible for the user.
Is there any way how to create one view settings and make it initial for all users?
I know there is a way of modifying the standard view via abap code, but I want to keep the possibility to show all fields if required.
Thanks for your help very much.
Martin

Hi,
another problem, I was expecting the newly created variant / layout / settings for view would be tied to the displayed table (which sounds kind of wired as I wrote it down).
But since I am displaying different tables in the same UI element and binding the tables and their structures dynamically the created variant applies to all of the tables (or thats how it seems) so the table which have all fields different then the layout shows nothing.
Do you have any ideas how to get around it?
My idea would be to store the layout (but i have no idea how it looks at db level) and identification of the report to some customer table and fill attribute of alv table dynamically according to used report. But thats just my idea, I have no idea if it si possible to do it like this.
Is there some other way how to accomplish this functionality?
I have also tried to do it on fieldcatalog level of the alv table, but it seems to show first, let's say, 8 fields if there is 8 fields in the fieldcatalog.
Any help or ideas please??
Thanks
Martin

View settings for ATV in iTunes

Hi,
Has any noticed that in itunes you are unable to change the view settings of the stuff synced to your ATV?
If you select ATV in the device list and then click on any of the categories (movies/music etc) iTunes won't let you change ANY views, everything greyed out!
I have tried changing sources on the unit, but whatever I do - no joy!

Hi Josef I'm not entirely with you on this one.
When I look on the device Apple TV in iTunes, everything I have streamed to apple TV from iTunes is grayed out but when looking at the photos tab which I have synced is not grayed allowing me to change whatever I want to sync. Is this different to yours? or I'm I misunderstanding your point.

Modify "standard view" settings for an ALV in a WD4A view

Hi fellow developers
I have placed an ALV on WD4A view.
In the WDMODIFYVIEW I try to manipulate the ALV settings but somehow the settings of the "standard view" overrule my commands.
The settings of the "standard view" are not modifiable from within the function.
Is there a possbility to change the settings of this "standard view" that is being used for this ALV?
Kind regards
Wouter Heuvelmans
Pyramid Applied Solution

Execute your application in administration mode, afterwards you can change the settings using settings link of the ALV and save the same as part of "Standard View". If you want settings only for a user then ask user create a view of there own and set the same as default view.
Even if you maniuplate ALV Layout settings ( other then Initial settings set during ALV call ) the same will be overruled by the default view set in the ALV i.e. Initial settings.

Podcast settings for individual podcasts

Is there any way to specify podcast settings on a per podcast basis instead of having itunes apply the settings globally? For example, I want one of my podcasts to automatically download the most recent episode, but others I want to download the episodes manually. For world news now, I only want to keep the most recent episode, but some others I want to keep 3 or 4... etc. Is there any way to set this up?

I've been trying to figure how to do this as well .... so far the best 'solution' seems to be by using this Applescript:
http://www.acetylene.net/podcastmanagement_foritunes/
..which allows the user, through ranking your podcasts, to either retain or "expire" particular podcasts.

Changed file viewing settings for Guest account, now iMac won't boot :(

I'll start this off by mentioning that I'm not really a techie type person, but I'll do my best to describe what I did as accurately as possible. And I'm pretty good at following layman's terms troubleshooint advice!
I recently decided to move my iMac into the living room of my apartment. I have never found the need to create a Guest account, but I figured it might be convenient for..well, a guest every now and then. But when I created the guest account I discovered very quickly that they would have access to all of my photos, documents, movies, etc. via the "view all documents" "view all photos" tabs on the left-hand side of the Finder window. I googled what to do and people were saying that it is best to change the viewing options of particular folders via the "get info" tab when you right-click on a folder. There were three categories, the first one I believe was Admin or the main user, the second is "wheel" and the third says "Everyone". I changed the "Everyone" access on the folders I wanted private from read-writable to "none". I left the "wheel" and "admin" categories alone. I also did this to the utilities folder, and the library under the assumption it would only affect guest access to these files, not admin access!
Also, under the Account Preferences tab in the Apple menu I disabled the viewing of shared folders for the guest. I also disabled automatic login.
Next thing I know, while I'm under the guest login trying to test out my security updates, I see I can't click on anything! Or open anything! I can't open the finder at all, I can't open the internet, I can't even get to the Apple drop-down menu. I couldn't even log out of guest. I had to turn off my computer without shutting it down. I turned it back on, and it went through the motions of booting up until the blue screen with the grey dashed loading circle (no beach ball, thank god). It acts like it will proceed beyond that point, the grey circle disappears for a moment, but then nothing happens and that process starts over. Like it's stuck and can't find it's own files. I also notice a tiny white square in the upper left-hand corner of the blue screen if that means anything.
I don't know what the heck I did. I think I somehow managed to block my own admin access (is that even possible??).

You need to get the install discs, erase the hard drive, and reinstall all the software from scratch. When acquiring a used Mac there's no way to know what condition its software is in... there might be hacks, security holes, pirated software, keyloggers, credit card sniffers, or other even riskier stuff on it. Using a pre-owned Mac's software as-is is a Very High Security Risk. Your Mac's software is obviously distressed. What's more, you are not licensed to use any Apple software unless you own and are in possession of the install discs.
Get the discs and reinstall. Apple will send you new ones that match your model for a small shipping fee. Call them and provide your Mac's serial number.
