Want to keep the screen in "fade out" mode

Hi! I hope you'll be able to help me with this one!
I use my ipod at work and I don't want to look like a guy with a tv running on his desk, so I keep my ipod touch set so that it locks after one minute. What I found really annoying is that if someone come to talk to me, I have to push the main button, unlock the ipod, and then press pause. I would like to be able to keep the kind of fade out mode that the screen turns to a few second before locking. This way, I will be able to press pause directly, and don't look like somebody who play with his ipod instead of working...
The only setting I see is the one that totally lock the ipod... is there something I can do?
If not, do you know if the screen will drown the battery a lot quicker if it's always turn on?
Thanks for your help.

There is no way to chat through this Forum. If you can provide the model of the laptop we can give detailed instructions.

    The music sync is how you got the music from the computer to the ipod in the first place.
    You cannot sync it from the ipod to the computer as I explained in the previous post, unless it is itunes purchased music.

    Use File >> Save As
    Choose a different file name so as not to overwrite the original and don't save any changes when closing the original.

  • I want to sync my apps with a new authorized computer, but I want to keep the arrangement of apps at home screen, possible?

    Actually, the computer is the same, but I re installed my windows and now my ipad recognizes it as a new computer. It's authorized and the purchases have been transferred, but I want to keep the way I have arranged my apps.

    Select the Apps tab in iTunes with your iPad connected.
    You can drag apps from one screen to another if necessary, then click Sync.

  • My screen on my MacBook Pro blacks out constantly. If I press on the bottom left side of the MacBook, I can keep the screen on. I have been placing a small note pad to keep pressure on the bottom in order to keep the screen lit up.

    You should try taking the battery out and putting it back in, but then if that doesn't work, you should take it into your Apple Retail Store and have a genius at the Genius Bar take a look. That seems like a hardware problem to me.

    You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

  • Using my iMac to fill in forms online, the screen suddenly fades off to the side and I cannot get it back.  so frustrating!!

    While online at a web site, filling in important forms, the screen suddenly fades to one side and disappears, and I cannot get it back, forcing me to start all over again.  How can I stop this from happening?

    The entire web screen of the form page I am filling out slides to the right and disappears, seemingly under a previous form that was not yet filled out, but I can't find it to retrieve it.  I suspect this wireless mouse might be causing it?  In general I find going back to a previous web page to be very awkward compared to windows.  I always get this message, do you want to submit this form again?  In windows, I could use a pull down arrow from my browser bar to locate a previous page.  Maybe Mac isn't for me. 

  • Should I keep the iPad or throw out my annoying tablet

    First when I got hrp my iPad 3 I was blown away with the retina display ans the design on the other hand the Samsung  tablet  Desighn was good and I don't need my fingers to touch the screen but is not 100% reyclable it's actually 20%. And if I do throw it out I'm just wasting money. Please help

    I have no idea what you are actually asking!
    Should I keep the iPad or throw out my annoying tablet
    By "tablet", do you mean the Samsung, or are you now referring to the iPad as a tablet?
    but is not 100% reyclable it's actually 20%  - and your point is?
    if I do throw it out I'm just wasting money - if you throw out something that works, simply because it's less recyclable then something else, then yes, you are wasting your money - and negating the value of re-cycling! 
    I'm not sure what "help" you need, nor what advice you expect anyone here to give, but if you want to chuck out either an iPad, or a Samsung tablet, send it to me!

  • If I want to keep the quality of the original captured footage(from the tapes),what format should I?

    I captured canon hv20 by firewire to my computer with adobe premiere elements 11. After capture, I have cutted clip three times. Then I want to export my computer because of I watch on my 46 inches full hd lcd television. If I want to keep the quality of the original captured footage (from the tapes), what format should I? I choosen mpeg 1440x1080i 24, it alerts error. Or i chosee avchd 1920x1080p, then it is too larger than captured scenes. I think it is 20000MB but captured scened (without cut) only 11.2 gb. Please help me. Thanks very much.

    File size and Bitrate and Quality are interrelated. From what I have read, the bitrate for your HDV footage from the PAL Canon HV20 camcorder should be about 25 Mbps (megabits per second). If you did a HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements, you should MPEG2.mpg file on the Timeline.
    When you did your export
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    MPEG
    using Presets = MPEG2 1440 x 1080i25, did you make any changes in the settings under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the preset?
    When you look at the settings in the Export Settings dialog for the MPEG 1440 x 1080i25 preset, you will see the default bitrate settings
    Minimum = 18 Mbps
    Target = 25 Mbps
    Maximum = 30 Mbps
    The program's export bitrate may be higher than that of your source media, resulting in the increased file size. You can check out the bitrate, using the properties readout from a free program such a MediaInfo
    http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
    You could experiment with different bitrate, trying to maintain the quality as you decrease the maximum bitrate from 30 Mbps downward to reduce the file size.
    The file extension of your export should be .m2t, .mpg. So, your export is MPEG2.m2t. I find that that type of file will playback in Windows Media Player, but not QuickTime (latest version). This particular export would be the closest to the source media properties.
    But, right now I would try to perfect the MPEG2 1440 x 1080i25, experimenting with the bitrate to bring the file size into line with the source file and still maintain video quality. The AVCHD.mp4 suggested by Ann Bens is a prime candidate quality wise. If size becomes a factor, you might want to explore a 1920 x 1080i25 or 1440 x 1080i25 Windows Media Video 9.wmv file which we can discuss in more detail depending on how things are going.
    Please review the above and then let us know how we can help.
    Thanks.

  • I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    Im not sure what garage band is, but i can tell you the way apple recommends making ringtones. Highlight a song in iTunes, right click and select get info. Goto the options tab and youll see the time lengths (write down the ending time) for the start time type in where you want the ringtone to start, ringtones can only be 30 sec long so make the ending time 30 sec later. Exit it out of the info and while song highlighted goto the "advanced" tab at the top of iTunes where you will see an option that says "create aac version". after creating the aac version you will have a duplicate song in your iTunes, change the original back to the correct time length. Take the 30 sec aac version and drag it to your desktop, right click the icon and click "preferences" You will then be able to change the name of the file which will be somethign to the effect of "songnamehere.m4a" you just change the m4a to m4r. you now have a ringtone, drag the new file to iTunes where it will pop up in a new tab labled ringtones. If you cannot change the name of the file when it is on your desktop let me know and i will give you instuctions how to be able to change it. Once you get it figured out you can use any song you have on iTunes to make a ringtone.

  • Since I downloaded the newest update, my phone only rings or makes text sounds about 10% of the time. It can be sitting in front of me and a call or text comes in. No sound, just a msg on the screen. Anyone out there having that problem?

    Since I downloaded the newest update, my phone only rings or makes text sounds about 10% of the time. It can be sitting in front of me and a call or text comes in. No sound, just a msg on the screen. Anyone out there having that problem?  It's not a problem in the settings as I set the rings and tones I want. The rare one comes thru with sound. I never had any problems before update.

    No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.

  • ITunes no longers asks "Do you want to keep the original file or move to trash?" - Can this be fixed?

    I'm not sure if this was a recent update in Mavericks, but when I used to delete items from iTunes it would ask something along the lines of:
    Do you want to keep the original file or move to trash?
    Now I no longer get this, instead iTunes asks:
    Are you sure you want to delete the selected song from your iTunes library?
    After which, if you choose the option "Delete Song", you get no option to keep the original file, it just straight up deletes if from my library and hard drive. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? For whatever reason, I want to be able to keep the original file on my Mac, without keeping it in my iTunes library.
    I've tried resetting dialogue warning, and this hasn't made a difference.
    Thanks!

    I have multiple phones and iPads and all are linked to one iCloud account and one iTunes Account.  I want to keep the same iTunes Account so I can share music, etc., however, I want each device to have its own iCloud account.  Any help on how I can I do this?

    You'll need to create an Apple ID for each device. Use the new Apple ID for FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud on the device. Use the original Apple ID for Settings>iTunes & App Store.
