Why is there no Preferences menu option?

Why would Apple take out Preferences for QTX? I had QT7 Pro and figured why would I want that when I got 10.. big mistake. Talk about stripped down... I think Windows Movie Maker has more features now. Why did Apple cripple it?
I mean, give me back auto-start for movies/music!

Well, there are some QuickTime X preferences but, they're kinda hidden. Someone on the macrumors forums
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=775514 (rorschach)
found a bunch of Terminal commands to enable some of the same preferences that were in QuickTime 7.
I took those & made Scripts for them.

  • Is there a Button menu option that will allow one view the names of all the buttons already created?

    Is there a Button menu option in InDesign CS 5.5 that will allow one view the names of all the buttons already created?

    Thanks for your prompt feedback! However, this option does not work for me -- and I'm not sure exactly why.
    Originally, when I tried your suggestion, I got the unsatisfactory result illustrated in the following help request: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/758172
    Now I am in the process of testing several new add-ons to fix this problem, and I am getting a very different (and even more unsatisfying) result illustrated in the attached image -- so I realize the problem may now be compounded by one or more of the new add-ons.
    (See the attached image that illustrates what happens now when I click on the MyDocs URL after is has been added to my Bookmarks tree.)
    UPDATE: I'm going to try the LocalLinks add-on to see if this will help me open local links using my FireFox bookmarks: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/locallink/
    Will let you know if it works....

  • As of version 31, why is there still no Thunderbird option to insert current date and time in message that you are writing?

    As of version 31, why is there still no Thunderbird option to QUICKLY insert current date and time in message that you are writing?
    Literally have seen this very-much-needed -- and used -- option "promised" for three years now, and even if there's only one or two formats that could be used, at least the option is there.
    It seems only way is to link a Macro and tool to Thunderbird and do it that way.

    Where was it promised? A quick search of Bugzilla didn't find a functionality request bug report for it.
    I assume you're aware that Mozilla stopped development about 2 years ago (just adds security/stability fixes and provides infrastructure) and all new features and bug fixes are now added by the community. They seem pretty tied up with bug fixes and reworking some hard to maintain components such as the MIME support.
    Have you tried the Timestamp add-on at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/timestamp/ ? The version at AMO doesn't support versions later than 2.0 so you'd need to do something like install the disable add-on compatibility checks add-on at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/checkcompatibility/?src=ss, and ignore the warning message about Timestamp not being compatible. However, the author has a version at http://extensions.sanjer.nl/?page=tb_ts that supposedly supports up to Thunderbird 11.9.x so it should be "compatible by default as it supports version 5 or later and is not a binary add-on like Lightning or Enigmail.
    "For Thunderbird use the context menu (right click popup) in the compose window, Ctrl+Shift+T or "Options | Insert timestamp" to inserts the date/time into a message"

  • X6: why is there no photo album option in the gall...

    why is there no photo album option in the gallery?
    other units like the N79 had this option..
    but i dont get why they didnt include it with X6
    that sucks... ive had alot of trouble finding reliable and working photo programs that allow
    photo album... usually compatibility problems...
    many thanks for youre help

    not that really, i mean, we cant single out certain images that we want and add them to an album, like in previous models...
    i really hope for that in the X6 ((
    I think you can achieve what you want to do on the X6. On the X6 an album is termed a folder.
    If you go to the Gallery so that you can see the large list of thumbnail photos and select
    Options > Folder options > New folder
    Create the folder with a name of your choice.
    You should then see a folder icon appear at the top of the large list of thumbnail images. If you then select, or 'Mark', the images that you want to group together by selecting
    Options > Mark/Unmark > Mark (you may have to scroll down before Mark/Unmark appears).
    Once you have a little tick by all the photos that you want to group together then select
    Options > Folder options > Move to folder and choose the folder you created earlier.
    You should then have only those images grouped together in a single folder (or album ). You can create as many folders as you like. I use this method to group all my wallpaper images together and also any system images that the gallery may discover so that they don't clog up the main gallery.
    Note: From what I can see the actual locations of the photographs on either drive C: or drive E: remain unchanged, only their listing within the gallery is changed so that an image appears in the main group or within a 'folder'.
    Hope that helps and I hope I've understood you correctly in terms of what you want to do.

  • Why is there no international warranty option for iPhone 5?

    Why is there not an option available to extend the iPhone warranty to an international warranty?
    Especially with a phone that you tend to take with you whenever you travel having to go to the country you bought it originally is a pain and sometimes not feasible.
    In my case : when I travelled from Hong Kong to a business trip in the Netherlands and then on to the US my iPhone 5 got stolen at the airport in Hong Kong. luckily I only had a prepaid SIM for Hong Kong in the iPhone so I went online and ordered a new simlock free  iPhone 5 at the Dutch online Apple store to be delivered in Amsterdam a few days later. So far, so good.
    I am currently in China and my iPhone 5 sleep button broke down. As I had to be in Hong Kong last week I thought I would stop by the Causeway Bay Apple Store after making a genius bar appointment. They checked the iPhone 5 and confirmed the sleep button was broken and it would be swapped for a new one. However on checking my serial number they told me I had to go back to The Netherlands to get it fixed.... So here is a problem, I am not planning on being there any time soon.
    Why is it not possible in the global economy we live in to get an international warranty?
    I called Apple Care and they suggested I could try in an Apple store in North Carolina where I am due in a few weeks, but they could not guarantee they would swap the phone.
    Now the end of July  I am due in the UK and from what I read now an iPhone bought in any EU country could be swapped in another EU country. so that would mean I could swap it in London?
    Very odd.  Always travel with my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro and these do have international warranty.

    I have a different story.
    I got my Hong Kong version of iPhone 5 A1429 GSM in Japan(yes, complex)
    It had a defective power button so I took it to an Apple Store in Japan and they gave me a replacement. Altough at first they refused to service this one so I had to try at a different Apple Store, but no problem getting serviced.
    And the replacement had a battery drain issue so I had it swapped in Australia, with no problem.
    And I got this iPhone stolen, so I bought US GSM version(A1428) in Australia(again, complex).
    This one apparently had a problem starting up, got stuck at Apple logo even after so many restores.
    I took it to an Apple Store in Australia, they refused to service this one, stating this one was made for US market only and was a different model.
    So from what I understand, if it's unlocked and your local Apple Store has the same model, they still do the repair/replacement under warranty.

  • Why is there no camera calibration options for Fuji files.

    I wish there were camera calibration presets that matched the in camera jpeg settings for Fuji files like there is for Nikon.  (They mimic the classic Fuji films.)  Why arent there?

    Camera matching profiles are so far only provided for the most popular cameras.  You can make your own with the DNG profile editor.

  • So why are there so many LESS options in the New iMovie??

    So I just started doing a new project in iMovie 2008, and let me tell you, I am really ****** off on the time I have so far wasted trying to edit my project here rather in iMovie 6.x or Final Cut Express. I am extremely disappointed at the lack of editing features in this version of iMovie. It is also way less intuitive than previous versions of iMovie. And to top if all off, I cannot even transfer any of my work to another program, so I guess I will have to start over.
    PLEASE GO BACK TO PREVIOUS VERSIONS FUNCTIONALITY!
    -Continually Disappointed Mac User...

    And to top if all off, I cannot even transfer any of my work to another program, so I guess I will have to start over.
    iMovie '08 is a totally different application. There is nothing to transfer but a list of instructions which the older versions cannot understand or use. No physical content exists as such until you share/export your project. And so far, no one has come up with a way of "threading" third-party "instructions" into the application detailing how third-party effects might be generated as part of the sharing/exporting process.
    PLEASE GO BACK TO PREVIOUS VERSIONS FUNCTIONALITY!
    This is a user to user forum. If you wish to make your feelings knot to Apple and "the powers that be" who might be able to make changes, select the "Feedback" option from within the application or go directly the to application feedback area on the Apple site.

  • Why is there no Apple Pay option on my iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1 update?

    I have iOS 8.1 on my iPhone 6, but there is no option to set up Apple Pay. I have checked the settings, and have checked passport itself. I have search Spotlight on the iPhone, nothing comes up. I live in Toronto, Canada. Is it just because of where I live? Will there be another update for the rest of the major countries?

  • Why is there a separate menu item for "Page setup" when there is already a tab for it in the "Print..." menu?

    I just can't see the point of having the same options in two places! The "Page Setup" tab from the "Print..." menu item has more options, relating to printer features, whereas the "Page Setup" dialogue box is basic and looks to me to be a little 'shoddy'. I'd have thought it would be a good idea to have the 'better' set of features available, but from it's own menu item, rather than a tab. And no duplicated controls!!

    Firefox on Windows doesn't have Page Setup in the Print dialog, it is in the Print Preview window.
    That isn't the only menu item that appears in multiple places. '''View Page Info''' is in the Tools menu (on Windows) and in the Contextual menu. '''Bookmark this Page''' is in the Bookmarks menu and the Contextual menu, along with the Tab Context menu.

  • Why is there no New Tab option when I right click on a tab?

    When I right click on a tab there should be a "Open New Tab" option.
    Sometimes I have 50 tabs open in a single window and I just want to open a new tab beside the 1st tab. Instead I can only open a new tab at the very end beside the 50th tab.
    Please add this feature as IE has this. Thank you.

  • Why is there no "SVG" format option in "Save for WEB" in CC? There IS in CS5!

    Another simple question.

    It has been removed from the Save for Web dialog, as that is for screen image optimisation. You now create SVG by saving to that format - look at the save dialog and from the format/files of type menu you can choose SVG from there.

  • HT2731 why is there no longer asn option to purchase my wish list ?

    Hi There,
    I can no longer purchase my wish list, any ideas ?

    For some reason Apple have removed the 'buy all' option that used to appear on the wish list, you will need to buy items individually by clicking on their price. You can try leaving for Apple about the 'buy all' button and maybe it'll be brought back in a future update : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
