Why can't we "set visuals enabled" of iTunes via AppleScript anymore?

You used to be able to set visuals enabled of iTunes to true or false. But the current version of Leopard and iTunes prohibit this.
Thus if you do:
tell application "iTunes"
set visuals enabled to true
end tell
you get the error:
AppleScript Error
iTunes got an error: Can’t set visuals enabled to true.
Is this a bug?

Your code of ...
tell application "iTunes" to set visuals enabled to true
... works, as expected, on a PowerPC G4 PowerMac, running Tiger (MacOS X 10.4.11), with iTunes v. 7.0.1.
Your code presents the AppleScript error message of ...
'iTunes got an error: Can’t set visuals enabled to true.'
... on an Intel based MacMini, running Tiger (MacOS X 10.4.11), with iTunes v. 7.5; and, and an Intel based MacBook, running 'Leopard'* (MacOS X 10.5.2), with iTunes v. 7.4.2, respectively.

  • Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app?

    Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app? I can set two alerts per event on the iPhone version, but the iPad version doesn't show the option that pops up after entering a first alert on the iPhone.

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

  • Why can't I set month,date and time on my imessage?

    Why can't I set month, date and time on my imessage?

    The way the date/time was displayed was changed in iOS7. There had been numerous complaints about not having a date/time stamp on all posts, so it was changed to display the time for all by sliding the post to the left. They left the date stamp to show differently. I couldn't tell you what it does for posts more than a week old, as I never save my messages that long.
    Meg's post provides for software where you could move the SMS to the computer and it should contain a full date/time stamp on it.

  • Why can't you set iCal alarm to email on iOS?

    I set iCal on OSX to email me ~12hrs before events, then alert me again 1hr and 30min before. Why can't you set email alerts on iCal for iOS and why are the alerts limited to only two? I feel like the features on iCal for iOS and OSX should be similar but they are not.

  • Why can't i set up my ipad mail?

    Why can't i set up mail on ipad?

    This is different from not being able to set up the account.
    When you created the account, was access to the incoming mail server confirmed or was an error message provided?
    If the account was set up successfully, the email account provider may by having a problem with their incoming mail server.
    If not, try deleting and recreating the account.

  • Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    If it "joined" my network is it extending the coverage of my wifi network ?
    Please review my previous answer in the post above......
    But, the Express does not  "extend" or "repeat" the wireless signal when it joins a network.  In other words, wireless devices cannot connect to the AirPort Express the way that you have it set up.
    If so can my Airport Extreme be set up to "join" my network and also extend the coverage of my network ?
    Again, please review my previous answer in the first reply above......
    The AirPort Extreme does not have this type of capability.
    If you have both an AirPort Extreme and an AirPort Express.....my suggestion....again, found above in a previous post.....
    It takes a minimum of two Apple routers to extend a signal using wireless.
    You could do this by connecting the AirPort Extreme to your cable router using a permanently installed Ethernet cable and then configuring the AirPort Extreme to "create a wireless network".
    Then add an AirPort Express in a location where it can pick up a strong wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme and configure the Express to "extend a wireless network".
    You would not use the wireless on your cable router at all, unless you wanted to reserve that network for guests or something similar.

  • Why can't I set up POP/IMAP emails for my Muse website in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option 'use this service for email as well as hosting the website' under Advanced options

    Why can't I set up POP/IMAP emails for my Muse website in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option 'use this service for email as well as hosting the website' under Advanced options.
    Is this due to my Hosting Plan? Appreciate any answers.

    Your site is a CCM site which is on a WebBasics plan (This plan does not provide hosted emails on Business Catalyst).
    If you want to create email addresses on this site, you would need to setup your email server elsewhere and configure the MX records on your site to point to that external mail server.
    If you want to use Business Catalyst's hosted email services you would need to use a WebBasics+ or higher siteplan. To upgrade your CCM free site, Access your site's admin area  -> Site Management -> Upgrade Now -> choose the desired site plan and billing frequency -> Add personal and credit card details -> Submit.
    Please refer this article about setting up email accounts on your BC site: http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#!/site-settings/email-users
    For setting up records to point to external mail server, check out http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#!/site-settings/email-users/creating-inboxes- for-your-users

  • Why can I not set a member attribute when there is only one child below the member?

    Why can I not set a member attribute when there is only one child below the member?The "member attribute" tab on the properties window of App Manager is grayed out. What am I forgetting?TIA,Craig Wahlmeier

    Most likely because Essbase is creating an implicit share relationship between the two members, which is causing the association tab to be grayed out. Tag the parent member with the "Never Share" attribute and see if that fixes the problem.Regards,Jade-----------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

  • Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud.

    Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

    That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
    I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.
