Why can't I change the frame label type?

In a movie clip, I have several frame labels applied. The type of label is set to Name, which is the default. I want to change some of them to Anchor (to use as named anchors with fscommand), but the Type drop-down list is grayed out. Anyone know why? I can't find any info on named anchors, not even in the Help. Yes I know that anchors don't work everywhere, but this is for a specific client.

Well, that's strange.
In all the named frames of Video MC, I wanted to change the frame label type from Name to Anchor. The drop-down list was grayed-out, and clicking it didn't do anything. That is.......until I exited Flash and restarted it. Now, I can click the drop down list and select anything I want. I suppose I should have thought of that earlier.
Thanks, and I hope I didn't take too much of your time!

HT201210 Why can't I change the location of my device backups?

Why can't I change the location of my device backups?
iTunes seems to force me to use my c:\ drive as the destination for all backups.
Background: I have set up my c:\ drive only for programs - all data is stored on separate drives - including my iTunes library and all media. So, I can't skinny down the c:\ drive any more without uninstalling programs.
The issue is that my 10,000 rpm, 280 GB - C:\ drive is fast but small and is now FULL after I got about 1/2 way through a 128 GB backup of my ipad. (Yes, all movies have been deleted off of the iPad to minimize the size of the backup.)
I deleted the partial iPad backup, moved all the Mobile Applications to another drive, emptied the recycle bin and tried again with my much smaller iPhone. You guessed it: the io7 update hung and both of my devices are now paper weights.
Which leaves me f*cked, anyone know how I can un-f myself?

iTunes movies are not part of an iDevice backup.
Videos & photos you take with the camera (in the Camera roll) are part of the backup but those should be sync'd to the computer and removed from the camera roll.

Why can't I change the transparent color and font color in IOS 7?

Who thought all this WHITE AND TRANSPARENT color looks appealing?
Why can't I change the color of the folders and text?
I already tried inverting the colors and then it washes out the photos I use as my wallpaper.
I love everything, so far, except this transparent issue.

That's very sad those colors can't be changed. They really look ugly.
Thanks for responding.

Why can't I change the transaction isolation level?

I was trying to change the transaction isolation level from an EJB. My source codes are shown as the follows:
======================================================
/*********************** Database Routines *************************/
private void makeConnection() {
try {
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = ( DataSource )ic.lookup( dbName );
con = ds.getConnection();

int status = con.getTransactionIsolation();
System.out.print( "1. " );
disp_tx_status( status );
System.out.println( "con.isReadOnly() = " + con.isReadOnly() );
con.setTransactionIsolation( Connection.TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE );
System.out.print( "2. " );
disp_tx_status( status );
} catch( SQLException ex ) {
System.err.println( "SQLException: " + ex.toString() );
throw new EJBException("Unable to connect to database. " +
ex.getMessage());
} catch( NamingException ex ) {
System.err.println( "NamingException: " + ex.toString() );
throw new EJBException("Unable to connect to database. " +
ex.getMessage());

System.out.print( "Transaction Status: " );
switch( status )

break;

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ" );
break;

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE" );
break;

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_NONE" );
break;
default:
System.out.println( "UNKNOWN" );
break;
private void show_supported_trans_levels( DatabaseMetaData dmd ) throws SQLException
System.out.println( "List of Supported Transaction Isolation Levels: " );
if( dmd.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel( Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED ) )
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED is supported!" );
else
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED is unsupported!" );
if( dmd.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel( Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED ) )
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED is supported!" );

if( dmd.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel( Connection.TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE ) )
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is supported!" );
else
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is unsupported!" );
=========================================================
However, I encountered the following exception when running at the highlighted statement:
======================================================
SQLException: java.sql.SQLException: Transaction manager errors. statement not allowed in XA Session.
======================================================
To my surprise, the isolation level TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is supported from the database vendor. So why can't I change the transaction isolation level?

Why can I not change the apple id associated with iphoto and imovies

Why can I not change the appleid associated with iphoto and imovies

Is it not your Apple ID? Is this a used Mac? If so, the Mac, OS X and the iLife apps are all registered to the original owner of the Mac.
When someone sells a Mac they should erase the Mac and reinstall the most recent version of OS X that came with the Mac. And they should call Apple Care and have the Mac, the OS and the iLife apps disassociated from their Apple ID. Can you call the original owner and request that?

Why can't I change the names of my states in my symbol?

For some reason, Fireworks won't let me change the names of my states in my symbol.
I double click on the state name in the states panel, and nothing happens.
It works fine for normal "non-symbol" pages.
Can you normally change the names of states in symbols?
Any ideas why I am having difficulty doing so?

Thank you SO much! Funny thing, I didn't even notice the tiny folder icon at the top of the info window until I saw it in the screen shot at the beginning of that article.
See, I have begun changing the icons of the folders of digital scrapbooking alphabets I have (screenshot below). Now it will be so much easier to scroll through my hundreds of alphas and choose one, because I can SEE them without going in and out of each folder.
A million thank yous!!!!!

How can i automatically change the frame size

hello everyone and have a nice week!
I have diary with many text frames per page and i want to change the frame size automatically on some of them because i change the font size. I tried find/change but on the object section there is everything but the frames size.
I hope someone has the answer to that otherwise its hours of work...

Frame fitting only works onthe last frame in a threaded set. I'm not sure that the auto fit feature in CS6 would help, either.
I'm not sure that I understand what it is you are doing, now that you've said the frames are threaded. Can you give us more of an explanation, perhaps some screen shots (blur the text if it's too personal, or add placeholder text for a sample).

Why can't I change the genre on the new iTunes

I wish to change the genre of a song on the new iTunes. I right click on the song go to details, write in the genre and then click on OK and yet nothing changes. So how can I effectively change the genre of a song?

I found out that in order to have iTunes accept changes, I must first go into Windows Explorer to the music file under properties, in the General tab, then uncheck in Attributes the read only box. Then iTunes accepts the changes.
Thank you and have a great day!

Why can't I change the duration of a still frame?

I am running Final Cut Express 3.5.1
When I try to change the duration of a still frame it generally snaps back to the existing duration rather than changing. Occasionally it will change but never to the duration I select which is ususlly :20 to :50 of a second. It sticks on a variety of durations between 1:20 and :05. I have tried both altering and rewriting the duration.I have tried restarting as well as all of the following methods:
1 Changing the duration in the User Preferences > Editing, still duration field.
2 Ammending the browser duration column .
3 Double clicking on the still to open it in the viewer and changing the duration field.
4 Draging the still into the timeline, control clicking and changing the duration in the drop down menu.
5 I also clicked on the still in the browser > edit > item properties but there was no timing tab available to select (as suggested on another posting.)

This project is just a short animation so every time I import the stills they are of the wrong duration so I try changing the duration by the other methods described previously, fail to be able to do that, erase everything from the project, restart and start again, initially with the preferences. So there's nothing for the still frames to conflict with. It's not the fact that there is a batch of stills that is the problem either as I keep experimenting with with single or small groups of stills in that context. I've also tried importing a variety of still formats into other projects. This is fairly new software. Could this be an incurable fault?

Why can't we change the 9am alarm for all-day events?

I need these all-day events alarms to be at another time, why can't I do this? Why the arbitrary 9am? Please, don't suggest to not use all-day events, this is not an acceptable solution to a very basic setting change that should be accessible.

Hi,
See from the business perspective, but not from the system point of view.
Intial triggering point for any business operation(inquiry , quotation , order - others are dependant transactions) is sold to party ( the one who place the order), which means at the time of placing the order, respective business partner should completely aware of & disclose the required details to complete the business deal.
eg: where these order supposed to dispatch,
to whom business has to send the copy of invoice &
who is gonna settle this invoice amount.
So Sold to party will have all the required details. Hence one sold to party act as the other business partners.
Once agreed, then only business partner is created as Sold to party in system. If is there any changes from the Sold to party such as in future sold to party is not going to receive the goods, but they nominated some other business partner for this function, then the respective details will be recorded as Ship to party & assigned this number to Sold to Party.
So you cant change the sold to party as some other business partners such as SH, BP & PY.

IMovie-Why can't I change the font of my title?

My simple question is that when I open the Font window from the menu to try to change the type, size and color of my font it doesn't change anything.
Below is the step by step of what I'm doing if you need this information:
I choose "T" button below view screen.
Select "Organic Main" and drag and drop it infront of my video (Green line indicates where to put it, and a green plus confirms the move is good).
Screen pops up asking me to choose background, I choose "Organic".
View screen shows new background with Text "Title Text Here" highlighted.
Project screen shows the new block in the front of my video clips, on top of this box is the blue rectangle box that is highlighted yellow and repeats the "Title Text Here" text.
So far so good.
I go to the top menu and choose "Text > Show Fonts". The Font window pops up.
Now when I click on fonts, font sizes, or try to change the color of the font, nothing happens.
I close the font window and hit done on my preview window and still nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you so much in advance, you people are always so helpful
Michele Ireys

Hi Appleman,
So what causes the Title Sequence from not being able to be edited?
As per michelepost comments earlier, neither the "Show Fonts" function allows title values to be changed, nor if the iMove Font Panel displayed?
From the Menu options, neither does the Cmd- or Cmd+ functions work to manage the size of the title text...
Can new titles be created with images from my photo library be used as backgrounds for Titles?
Whilst on the theme, why when changing photo image durations, the value in time entered does not relate to the image(s) selected? I enter 1.8seconds, and 0.9 is displayed against the selected image.......
Looking forward to your response in advance.
Maggie
