Applications :: Does ITunes 10.1 Break Colour Customization And Revert Traffic Lights
Sep 29, 2010
Love it or hate it, I couldn't stand the all-gray iTunes and the vertical traffic lights. So I dropped a little script in the terminal and installed a modification to bring colour back to my icons. Now that iTunes 10.1 is out, does anyone have any experience with it breaking such modifications? I can't quite remember what it was I changed or I would experiment for myself. Unfortunately I'm tech savvy enough for basic trouble shooting and following explicit directions but not enough to know all the components of iTunes. I think I replaced a resource file of some kind.
Especially since it is open source, it surely shouldn't be too difficult to modify the traffic lights to be vertical in Mozilla Firefox like they are in iTunes 10. I've seen that you can change the iTunes 10 traffic lights to be horizontal. How would I do the opposite in Firefox?
i recently installed itunes version 8 on my mac, everything was alright until i went to update the software on my iphone. i did some searching and read that version 8 wont let you install the iphone software. i want to go back to version 7.7.1 of itunes but whenever i try to install it, i get this error message: "You cannot install iTUNES on this volume. A newer version of iTUNES is already installed." how do i go back to the older version i had so that i can update my iphones software?
I've been using Safari 5 since it came out but decided I give the new FireFox Beta 4 a look see. Here's what I got after the install. I looked at the toolbar customization but I don't see how to correct this.
New to using Mac's... this is an older desktop but I haven't had any issues with it yet. I went on to use it and the colour was a yellow/orange looking colour and it changes the way pictures and text look on the computer. Is there a way I can troubleshoot this problem or is it something to do with the monitor itself?
I am looking to import cd's that do not have breaks between songs. Most electronica cd's are like this, but a live concert would be the same. When I pop a cd in my computer and import it into iTunes it turns it into individual tracks, with an abrupt break between songs instead of the continuous flow that the cd has.
I'm using Tunnelblick to a OVPN server. I noticed Tunnelblick doesn't have an option to "send all traffic over VPN" like say Viscosity does, I would use Viscosity but I'm on a 64 bit kernel and Viscosity has no support for that, I know there are several guides but they don't work. So simply, how do I know if Tunnelblick is sending all traffic over VPN or not?
Here is the situation. my family has someone staying with them our house who is basically addicted to internet pornography. They will be here for a while as they have hit a rough patch in their life and we are trying to help them out.
We already had a block set up with openDNS to effectively block all web sites through our router (apple time capsule) but that doesn't do anything to block p2p file sharing and our guest has figured this out. I discovered this because they are not too computer literate and all of their downloads from limewire and frostwire ended up showing up in their itunes shared library.
I am looking for some advice from some pro network admins / elite type users.
I have some specific problems I am trying to address and could use a pointer in the right direction in terms of what software to get.
a) I'm looking for any software suite / program, MAC or PC, which can enable me to detect TRAFFIC on MY OWN network, and possibly correlate that traffic with known port numbers to create a graph / picture / etc of WHAT KIND of traffic a specific IP address / interface is transacting.
The purpose of this is to attempt to pinpoint how much torrenting / limewire / etc is going on on my network, and from what computers.
b) Any advice on any wireless router brand / model that enables IP / computer based bandwidth throttling such that I can clamp down on people who leech and drive my ping times through the roof.
This is a home network, college residence with approx 10 different users on the network. I have full control over the cable modem and the router. It is a consumer model (netgear) with limited configuration options, but very good wireless reception.
I need to block outgoing traffic on specific ports. Is there anything default in OS X to do this? If not, what application could I use? I'd prefer to use the OS, if it has an ability to do this.
I have a column that has name / phone and i'm trying to break out the two into two separate columns. I can't figure out a way to do this? I'm trying to figure out to use the line break to trigger the column separation but no luck? Here is an example of what i have in a column:
So, I'm still new to the whole Mac OS X happening, just got my MacBook about three of weeks ago (very happy with it ^__^). But, there's this little problem. I'm now using Microsoft Office 2008, and I often use Page Breaks. Previously, on the windows computer I used, I could simply press ctrl + return to insert a page break, but this is not a standard shortcut in the Mac version.
My solution - or at least, I hoped it would be a solution - was to use a custom shortcut for Microsoft Word via the System Preferences. I would like to set it to either ctrl + return or cmd + return, but it doesn't work.. However, when I try a shortcut like ctrl + cmd + down - or really anything without the return key - it works just fine. So, here comes the actual question; Is there any way to incorporate the return key within the shortcut?
Ohh, and now another problem comes in mind, I've got this Video_TS dir on my HD from a dvd which I tried to open, but when it's opened it simply 'plays' the menu. So I'm unable to actually select the option from it, and it simply goes to other part - like chapter selection - afterwards.It also plays little bits of the files, hangs for while, and skips a bit, then repeats the cycle.Anyone familiar with it? I use VLC Player Open Disk... with the Video_TS folder option.Ohh, and the files play fine on the windows pc next to me.. I realise this last question maybe should be in another topic, or has already been answered somewhere on the forum. But I did do a search for the first one, and couldn't find any information on it.
I got a 6gb file I need to send to my other computer since its I cant get the network configured and its too big for a dvd. Files that big wont be sent over aim or anything really. How on a mac I can break it down into smaller files? Its a .iso
As a writer, I'm going to be using Pages on my brand new MacBook Pro 13" (I just switched from Windows) quite a lot, so it really ticks me off that whenever I insert text in a line in a paragraph, the line below it gets separated from the rest of the text instead of simply moving the text on the line I'm editing smoothly into the following lines.

Ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard and using Apple Mail, I have been getting the following error after a day or so of use: "Account exceeded bandwidth limits." Eventually I am able to access GMail via IMAP with Apple Mail, but only for about a day before this error occurs again. This doesn't affect my access to GMail via the web interface. Nothing has changed with my use of GMail since before the Snow Leopard upgrade and I've seen scattered reports of this on the 'net, but nothing that nails down a solid connection between the Snow Leopard upgrade and this error.
Why were the colour icons taken away from the finder and itunes sidebars and and replaced with grey monochrome shade icons. Have apple rectified this yet? It doesn't make sense to me why they changed this. On another note, can the the sidebar be changed back to the right hand side in preview (when opening PDF's). It has always been on the right in snow leopard and tiger. It seems to me that their has been too many unnecessary changes in the Lion operating system.
After a full migration from my 2006 Intel iMac to a new 12.1 21" iMac, I I tried to change some playlists and download other podcasts ect. on my ipods and i pad 2 on my new iMac , but the bar at the bottom of my sync window does not show the capacity bar along with the Revert and Apply buttons. Everything else looks like it should and I don't get any error messages.
iJust deleted a couple object in IDCS2 and hit command-S instead of command-Z. These objects had lots of attributes applied to them and this will take me forever to get this thing back to the way it originally was. Is this possible to recover?
I don't yet have another image software on my iMac so anything I am doing right now is in pages. Is there a way to take the colour images and convert them to grayscale. I tried the ColourSync through the print file and it made my poster very grainy and blurry.
The poster is primarily in grayscale but some images are not. I would like to change them into grayscale so I can preview what it will look like without wasting ink.
I was messing around with shapeshifter and custom icons, as well as dragging out folders like Documents, Applications, Pictures, Movies, Music onto the desktop. After this, all the Applications folders on all accounts only contain a non-functioning version of iTunes, save for the folder I dragged onto my Desktop. Can I reset my computer defaults? What do I do?
I made a table of contents in Pages the other day and decided to change the colours (for example, one line orange next brown next orange next brown and so on.) but the 6th one down reverts to black every time i either click on the contents or reopen the document.
I could be wrong, but I did not hear anything about Apple revising the Backlit Keyboard on their new MBPs that came out early June. Was this not made public for a reason or just small upgrade that needed no advertising? Or am I totally living on another planet and everyone knew about this? I checked one out for the first time today and.... now, there is a light sensor(next to the cam) to automatically turn the Backlit Keyboard off during daylight when you don't need it - to save battery life. it makes sense, but personally I want the option to always have it off to save battery, no matter the conditions around. I just found a reason to not want a 13" MBP over my uni MB New MBPs Users (June 09 or later) - is there customization with this new feature?
I'm wondering if there's a way to eliminate the visual break in-between pages in Pages '09 (see screenshot). I'd prefer maybe a subtle dotted line indicating a different page, not a 5-inch gap.
