Still having no luck with getting iTunes to recognize my internet connection.

I downloaded from the link le nub sent, but I'm not sure what to do next. Even so, that would only take care of updating my iPhone, I still can't buy new music.

Can you backup your itunes directory, uninstall itunes and then reinstall it?

How come in Outlook calendars, I can see some people's meetings and not others? What I mean is, there are a handful of people where I can see what the meetings are, not just that they are booked. These are not people with any sort of reporting relationship to me.

It's making me paranoid that someone can see mine, though I don't know why I care.

(It's also making me speculate on whether our environmental safety guy has a daughter named Catherine, or if he really is taking his cat to flute lessons as his calendar would indicate. Or maybe he's learning to play the cat flute? The possibilities are, well, several.)

Custom text tones, mmmm. Now I just need to get a file of Geena Davis saying "Beetlejuice!" to turn into my custom text tone.

The calendar owner has control over settings in Outlook, so if they make their meetings open, you can see everything they see. In my office most people left their meetings open, but a couple used the setting that showed them as booked but not for what. And a couple kept the calendars open but put" private meeting" for personal stuff.

Also, if you have delegate access to a calendar, you can go in and see that stuff if you want to, but I assume you just have view access. (I had delegate access to the whole office because I needed to, but we were a pretty small and cosy office anyway.)

Question. If you know the length of a video, and the megapixel per second resolution, is there a rule of thumb for predicting video size? Or does it vary too much for there to be a useful rule of thumb?

You'd also need the codec and the bitrate.

Hey. New board.

Technically, all you'd need is the length and the bitrate - unit analysis says length in seconds times bitrate in bits/second = bits. I'm not sure what megapixel-per-second resolution is... that sounds like it might connect to bitrate somehow?
