Volume, Dissolves, 50% - An easy one for most of you I'm sure.

Hi everyone. First time poster here. I hope someone can help me out. I'm a wedding videographer.
I need to know a few things that will speed up the process of editing a little bit. I'm editing SD footage with Final Cut Pro on a fast G5.
I have 30 four-second clips on the timeline and I want to reduce the volume on all of the clips to -12 in one go. Is this possible? I don't want to have to keep on doing them all manually together?
Let's say I have a similar sequence of shots later on in the timeline. This time, I want to make all of the short clips a speed of 50%, in one go, instead of having to do it all manually, one by one. It's very time-consuming this way. Well, it takes two minutes, but I'd rather not do it.
Also, if there are simple one or two second dissolves between all of these short clips -- how do I go and take away all of the dissolves in one go, so it's just straight cuts?
Appreciate the help.

Hi Shane
I did this and it's selecting ALL of the dissolves on the timeline. I wasn't thinking that far ahead.
I'm doing a highlights sequence at the end of a wedding DVD with footage that is copied and pasted into the end of the timeline from elsewhere in the project. This is the reason why I want to get rid of the dissolves and other transitions, so I can start editing this piece fresh. I suppose I could open a new timeline and do it in that.
I need ALL of the transitions to go, if possible, including Dip to Color Dissolves etc. If it's not possible to do all of the transitions in one go, I can do it in two. However, I'd like to be able to do all of this on the one timeline. For example, if I do it the way you said above, I will end up deleting previous dissolves in the timelines (during the speeches, dancing, ceremony etc).
Any ideas? Anyone? Thanks!

if (CDateTime (2007, 07, 31, 00, 00, 00)-{Nameadd.Start Date})<365 then "Annualized since Inception - " else "Since Inception - "
the above formula works just fine.... but I want to show the actual start date referenced in nameadd.start date at the end of the text, which grows and shrinks.... but I cannot figure out how to add this, since it keeps telling me it should be a string???
this is what I tried and does not work:
if (CDateTime (2007, 07, 31, 00, 00, 00)-{Nameadd.Start Date})<365 then "Annualized since Inception - " + {Nameadd.Start Date} else "Since Inception - " + {Nameadd.Start Date}
How can I add my datetime field to end of the resultant text? should be easy, but I cant get it.
THANKS!!

betweein the comma and the quoute here: totext(date({Nameadd.Start Date}),u201DMM/dd/yy

This is probably an easy one for some of you [SOLVED]

Basically, I have some scripts that sudo netcfg <profile> that I have a launcher menu setup for in my KDE panel.
The scripts work fine. They are just bash scripts. What would be nice is if I could get some visual feedback on the script running, like maybe call open a konsole terminal, run the script, then exit the konsole terminal. I'm just not sure how to make that happen.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Sure, the command for the launcher should be something like this:
konsole -e /path/to/bash/script
You may need to put a sleep or 'press enter to continue' read at the end of the script if it just runs and exits. The -e option causes konsole to execute your command and then exit the terminal.

Easy one for someone, I hope

This is probably an easy one for someone:
I have a simple password function in a child movie and am
using the standard code to activate the enter key
on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
It works fine on it's own, but doesn't work when it's loaded
into the parent movie. What's the solution?

Easy one for you, I think

Hi ya'll.... here is an easy question for all you Dreamweaver
gurus out there. I want to write my website to a CD so that anyone
with any web browser can read it. I created it in Dreamweaver. How
do I accomplish this?

If it's a static site, get yourself a copy of AutoRun CD.
You burn two files to your CD along with your site files. One
is the
autorun.exe file. The other is an inf text file where you
specify which file
on the CD should load first.
Probably index.html.

Working with Images, easy for most of you, not me

Ok, here's the deal.
I'm trying to get Automator to do a bunch of stuff to certain images I import, and I think I have most of it.
There is just 2 things I don't know how to do.
1. I want the largest dimension of the image (either height or width, depending on the image), to be 650px. Right now I have the command doing that as the Preview command for Scale Images set to Resize to 650. Is that right? Or will it always do width?
2. I want to change the resolution of the images to 144ppi. Is there a command for this?
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!

This should be an easy one for you experts ;-)

Just took my vintage 2009 Macbook pro that was having trouble running Lion back down to Snow Leopard. (formatted drive and reloaded SL) How do I get iPhoto, Garage Band, Imovie etc.... in other words the apps that came installed on my 2009 machine when I bought it. They aren't part of the SL install.
No need to be concerned about my user data/settings/other apps etc... I migrated them over to a new Macbook pro I just purchased using a Time Machine backup. (worked wonderfully) but as I'm sure you know moving anything from a Lion TM backup to a SL machine isn't possible. I've heard there are ways but it's complicated and well all I really want is my 2009 machine to be like it was new and I'll I need for that is what I believe is the iLife stuff (again iPhoto, Garageband, iMovie etc...)

Thanks for the quick reply wjosten! I didn't get any disks with my computer. I bought it new from the online apple store.. I still have the original box it came in, user guide etc...it came loaded with Leopard but no disks. I had the SL disk as I purchased it to upgrade ( I know I could have downloaded it for free but I wanted a disk for the exact reason as for how I just used it to reinstall SL in case I needed to someday). In fact, I just bought a 2012 MacBook Pro, picked it up at my local Apple store and it did not come with any disks, same as before, it came with power cord, user guide, cleaning cloth, but no disks. I can understand that apple saves money, time, resources and environmental material by not including disks, but they should make it easy to download these things when you are in trouble and not charge even a small fee. I paid for these apps and merely want to reinstall them on the same machine they orignally came with.

Singleton: could be an easy answer for most of u

Hi,
I have a singleton class in my webapplication. When a user of the webapplication is calling one of the method of the singleton class, will the next user requesting the same/other method have to wait for the first user to finish the method call? In other words is this creating bottleneck?
Thanks,
Ri

It is really hard to simulate this and debug it<<Once you've finished it, demonstrate it to your
boss/customers/peers - the bug is bound to show up
then ! :-):-)... but for this case, I want to generate an error
due to the but and then correct the code to remove it
and prove it (to myself) that it has been removed...
any suggestions?!?!
I was able to do some testing.... well first of all I tried to simulate the error...and was not able to generate it atal.. I have Tomcat running as a plugin of Eclipse... so I can go step by step debugging... i had a break point inside a method (NOT synchronized), and called that method from two different users (2 threads) and both of them had their own parameters passed CORRECTLY to the method call...so I assume it is working fine without the synchronize block and it is not a bug... if you have any example of suggestion that this could still be a bug, let me know...
thanks,
ri

This will be an easy one for ya

Please could you tell me what would be the AS to make my
button. When clicked show text in another frame. I've been on
various tutorials. Playing with flash CS for two days now &
feel dead thick.
Thanks in advance.

Not quite sure what you men by 'another frame' but to make a
button you
should draw your graphic, then turn it into a MovieClip and
give it an
instance name such as 'myButton'. Then, on the main timeline
you would put
code like so:
myButton.onRelease = function(){
someOtherClip.gotoAndStop("pic");
If you have another clip, with an instance name of
'someOtherClip' then it
will goto and stop on the frame labeled 'pic' when the button
is released.
That help?

Hi Everyone,
Some more help please
Basically the customer user 9 for outside line and want to be able to ring there missed calls but are not able to as there is no 9 infornt of the number.
Thanks

Hi
If this is a H.323 gateway, you can use a translation rule on the gateway like below :
translation-rule 1
Rule 1 ^.% 9
then apply to the dial-peer going to CUCM
dial-peer voice 1000 voip
incoming called-number .
destination-pattern 4...
translate-outgoing calling 1
session target ipv4: X.X.X.X
For a MGCP gateway, you would achieve this on the CUCM

Easy one for you experts hopefully

I currently use an AEBS / AE with an x-modem on BT internet, BT are rubbish so I'm switching to O2 and They have sent me the O2 wireless box, I want to use this as my modem and router and effectively have the AEBS acting as a wireless access point on the network, how do you use it as such, do you have to disable the dhcp thingy so it just looks like an ethernet client to the router and if I do, can I still use the gigabit ports on the AEBS to hang a NAS disc off etc. also, would I connect the AEBS to the O2 modem/router using the WAN or LAN port on the AEBS
sorry if this is all simple stuff but I'm a doctor, not network engineer..:-)

You would connect the WAN port of the AEBS to one your O2 modem/router's LAN port. You would then need to run AirPort Utility and under the internet tab towards the bottom you would want the AEBS to run in bridged mode instead of sharing a public IP address. And yes, you would still be able to use the NAS disc off the AEBS.

Getting redirect to work -- easy one?

Hopefully this is an easy one for someone to answer -- I'm simply trying to set up an action-mapping that performs a redirect instead of a forward. If I use the following xml in struts-config.xml (I'm using struts-faces), then everything "works":
<action
path="/search"
type="com.wheels.struts.SearchAction"
name="searchForm"
scope="request"
input="search">
<forward
name="results"
path="faces/results.jsp"
/>
</action>
I get an error if I change the forward to be a redirect, however, as in:
<action
path="/search"
type="com.wheels.struts.SearchAction"
name="searchForm"
scope="request"
input="search">
<forward
name="results"
path="faces/results.jsp"
redirect="true"
/>
</action>
The error I get is:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot forward after response has been committed
Any thoughts on this one? Is there something I need to change in my Action class to properly redirect instead of forward? Something in struts-config.xml??
Thanks very much.

In Firefox 4, there is no New Tab button in the Customise Toolbar window - is there one for Frx4?

In Firefox 4, there is no New Tab button in the Customise Toolbar window? Is there one for Frx4?

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.<br />
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.<br />
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible to the left of it.
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

I lost my iphone in the water I bought a new one 4S now I have 2 back ups in Icloud, the one for the new Iphne and the old Iphone where I have the most info I need. How I can download my old backup?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You cannot download a backup from iCloud, the only way to access it is to restore to the backup with your new phone, which you should have done when you first connected it. If you restore now, you will lose all the new information you have added to your new phone.
