Exporting Images to a folder on the hard drive

I used to be able to export images to a selected folder on my hard-drive without having to identify the folder for every image.
Now when I export I need to select the folder on my hard-drive for each image even thought I'm going to process 50+ images for that folder.
What is wrong & how can i fix it?
Can anyone help?
I'm using Lightroom 5.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I just tried it again and it seems to be working....
If it happens again, will use export with previous.
I was exporting the normal way through the library but my sub-folder was on my hard-drive.

Choosing a folder from the hard drive

Hi
I need to allow the user to choose a directory to save a logfile to from a Business One form that should get launched when they click on a browse button. I have currently got the below code which is located within the the ItemEvent.
Dim FolderWindow As New Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog
FolderWindow.RootFolder = Environment.SpecialFolder.MyComputer
FolderWindow.ShowDialog()
The FolderBrowserDialog window does appear however there is nothing shown where the folder directories should be so therefore not allowing for a directory to be chosen. If I however copy the exact same code and place it into the sub Main for example it works OK.
I've had a look around the forum and theres a couple of people who look as if they've also had this problem but there's no fixes given. Does anyone know why the folders aren't being shown or another way I can allow the user to choose a directory from the Hard Drive?
Thanks
Steve

Hello Steven
In the last year i have published a solution in c# and vb.net which is working properly.
you can donwload a simple source from:
http://www.progi-tech.hu/ShowFileOpenDialog.zip
before you call the browser window, you can tell the .NET to Acess to the filesystem by the following .NET code
Dim f As New FileIOPermission(PermissionState.None)
f.AllLocalFiles = FileIOPermissionAccess.AllAccess

My computer crashed and had to be scrubbed clean--in the process, my bookmarks were saved to a backup folder on the hard drive. How do I import it back into Firefox?

All my Firefox settings (home page, etc.) had to be reset, but I can't figure out how to import my bookmarks from my backup folder (not in Firefox Library) to the toolbar. Can I drag and drop?

The answer is yes you can drag and drop, but I am not too clear what you have done, so I will attempt to briefly answer likely possibilities.
If you will bear with me I will try to explain some of my understandings about Firefox and its bookmarks. Although you see them in the library or sidebar they are stored in a database, along with other info in a file called ''places.sqlite'' . That resides in something called the profile. Firefox also does some clever tricks to back those up and restore them as necessary, so has a backups folder. Additionally it allows the bookmarks to be exported or imported as two types of file .html (try to avoid) or .json
So one question is what sort of files have you managed to keep ?
Now talking about the Firefox Bookmarks Library <br> you may note that has by default a folder or directory called 'bookmarks toolbar'
Anything in the bookmarks toolbar within the library will appear on the toolbar you see. (space permitting, and sometimes as nested folders)
You can drag and drop to your hearts content within the library, including to the folder for the toolbar.
(It allows a lot more, for instance
<br>- dragging onto a desktop to make a shortcut
<br>- to or from another open library or browser window
<br>- dragging and dropping to become a tab, or as a toolbar item)
If you exported your bookmarks as a standard .json file before working on your computer, then you should have them stored somewhere as a .json file. If you open the library it gives you the option under import and export to browse for and import files.
It is rather more complicated if you stored the raw data files/folders from a profile.

Empty folder in the hard drive

hi everyone,

i'm using os x lion (10.7)

How do I unlock My Documents folder in the hard-drive with another PC?

I have a 3000 series j100 desktop, 3 days ago restarted on its own and can't boot anymore, no keyboard, no mouse and no monitor signal sent from the pc.
I took the drive out and use it as an external drive to my laptop, but it asks for a password before I can access My Documents folder.
I believe it's the windows xp login password that's needed, but there's no field on that pop-up box to enter any password it asks.
I know my windows login password, but I don't know if that's what really needed and how to use it to unlock the folder.
Is there another way to access the folder, or do I need to get the computer working again to access the folder in the drive?
I also do have some encrypted files inside My Documents folder that I created with windows when the pc was working.
The encryption comes along with windows xp. When you right-click a file, you choose properties and advance option then apply the encryption, then the file name turns color to green.
Could it be the reason I can't access My Documents folder in the drive with another pc?
Please help, I need to know if I need to do a recovery job or is there an easy way to access My Documents folder in the drive with another computer.

Where can I find the bookmarks folder on the hard drive C: ?

Dear all,
Please I want to know where the the bookmarks or favorites [[which were added using mozilla firefox]] are located on the hard desk drive C: .
Thanks ,

Hello Ali.
Although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
As for your question, hopefully this support article is what you need:

How to find "My Templates" folder in the hard drive? Or "Mainstage Concerts" folder, "Mainstage Layouts" folder

So far I have saved quite a few concerts as templates, but now I want to delete some of the older ones, so they stop showing up teach time I want to start a new concert from a template. I have been looking for the folder in library, application support, logic, also in the mainstage app icon's package contents, but I can't find how to delete those saved templates, and exported layouts. Please advise me on this.

Hi
If you are running Lion OS, the <User> (Home) folder where MS 2.1.3 stores these files is hidden by default.
The easiest way to get there is using the Finder;Go menu: Hold down Option (Alt) and the Library will show up in the Go Menu.
Once you have the User Library window open, drag it to the Sidebar.
(There are also ways of 'un-hiding' the <User> Library via Terminal etc)
The Mainstage files are in
<User> Library:Application Support:Logic.

I used an external hard drive for my backups via Time Capsule. I bought a new computer and I want to transfer all my old fonts over to the new one but when I go into the Font Library from the hard drive backup but my downloaded fonts aren't there?

I used an external hard drive to back up my computer using Time Capsule before I bought a new one. I am slowly transferring information fromt he backup to my new computer and I want to transfer over my old font book. When I go into the Font folder on the hard drive the only fonts that show up are the ones that came stock with the computer not any of the ones I have downloaded over time. Could they be downloaded somewhere else?

The answer to that would probably be "Yes." If you don't remember where your fonts were stored, you may want to search your backups for any of the font files you know the names to. See where that takes you.
Ideally, Font Book and other font managers will temporarily store the fonts you "installed" into the System when you run the OS. When you shut down, etc. they are removed and reloaded on restart. The permanent place fonts reside is where you saved them when or after you downloaded them. I typically create a Resources folder on the root level of the computer and place a Fonts folder there. Then I install fonts from there, and they are available to all users on that iMac.
Perhaps if you did not have that kind of a strategy, perhaps many of them are still in your Downloads folder?

How to move multiple emails from Mail to my folders on the hard drive

I would like to be able to move multiple emails at a time from a given mailbox to a selected folder on the hard drive in a format that I can subsequently read.
I know I can move them one at a time in RTF. And either RTF or HTML would be fine (along with whatever attachments) as a format.
But I can't seem to find either a command or a format that will allow me to do this.
My goal isn't archiving -- I want easy access to these emails and their attachments. I just want to get them out of Mail and into the folders on my hard drive that have other documents with related content.
I would greatly appreciate any advice that someone could give me.

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external HD from the mbp, I get the following pop up window: The disk "external hard drive A" couldn't be ejected because "Lightroom" is using it. Quit that application and try to eject this disk again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Select Catalog screen pops up but doesn't list my external hard drive A as a choice.
I've reviewed Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart Previews Lightroom 5 web page and still haven't been able to figure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Your internal HDD. by default, is named 'Macintosh HD'. From what information you supplied, it looks like there is already a Lightroom catalog installed on you local (internal) HDD using the standard naming convention Adobe uses as well as a Lightroom catalog on your external drive which you created. To be sure of which catalog Lightroom is loading when it starts up, To do this, start Lightroom as you normally would. After it starts, select the Lightroom menu item, then select the Catalog Preferences item and finally, navigate to the General tab. The Location information will tell you exactly what catalog Lightroom is opening by default. This will likely be the Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog on your external HDD. Once that is confirmed, you are ready to proceed. As an additional test/verification, you can shut down Lightroom and, this time, start Lightroom while holding down the ALT/OPTION key. This will cause Lightroom to pause and display a screen which will allow you to chose a different catalog to open. Navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder and select the Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file. When Lightroom comes up, there should be no previews or folders as this catalog should be empty. Now you can be certain which catalog is being used and which catalog has all your data and you are ready to migrate your current catalog. Shut down Lightroom.
To migrate your current catalog, use Finder to locate your Photography Mac Book Pro Versions folder on your external drive. Select the folder and select COPY from the context menu. Next, use Finder to navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder on you internal HDD. You can start at the Macintosh HD level and work your way down by opening each level (Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures). Select the /Pictures folder and then select PASTE... from the context menu. When the COPY/PASTE is complete, you should see the following files on the Macintosh HD:
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom/ and
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions
The Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder will contain the empty default catalog the Adobe created when Lightroom was installed and Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions will contain a copy of the catalog you created on your external HDD.
You are almost done now. Make sure your external drive is still attached for this step. Restart Lightroom using the ALT/OPTION key again. When the Select Catalog screen appears, select the Choose a Different Catalog button (lower left side). When you do, a Finder window will open to allow you to navigate to a catalog of your choosing. Navigate to Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions and select the file Photography Mac Book Pro Version.lrcat. This is the copy you just created. Select the Open button and Lightroom should start. You should see all of your previews and settings just as before. Also, in the left hand panel, all of your folder should show up and none of them should be dimmed and none of your previews should display a small exclamation point badge. Either a dimmed folder name or an exclamation point badge indicates that Lightroom can't find the associated image file. If everything looks good, go to the Lightroom menu, select Preferences and then select the General tab. Under Default Catalog, select an option to either load the LAST catalog opened or select the Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog from the drop down. Shut down Lightroom and then restart it normally. This time, when Lightroom starts, you should be viewing the new copy of your catalog. You can confirm this by looking at the General tab on the Catalog Preferences screen (Lightroom/Catalog Preferences menu items). Shut down Lightroom once again and this time, eject your external drive before restarting. This time, your folders in the left hand panel will be dimmed but you should be able to work with your smart previews. If Lightroom should display a Select Catalog screen with the external drive detached, double check your settings as it indicates Lightroom is still looking at the copy of the catalog on the external drive rather than the new copy you made.
Finally, if you are seeing dimmed folders and/or exclamation point badges with the external drive attached, this indicates a problem. You can select any folder and select Update Folder Location from the context menu. This will allow you to navigate to the copy on the external drive and select it. Lightroom will then update the catalog (select to synchronize the content). This will not only clear the dimmed folder problem but also remove the exclamation point badges for all photos in that missing folder. However, it may indicate that not all went well with the copy of the catalog so make sure to verify all went well. You can use the Get Info option on the two folders. You should see the same number of files/folders for both the copy on the internal drive as well as on the external drive but you can't rely on the byte count because of the possibility of differences between the geometry of the two drives. Hope this all helps!

I had all photos on a Windows desktop. Got a mac laptop, installed LR5, and put all images from Windows onto an external hard drive. When I go to import them into LR on the Mac, they are all locked. Help, please. Thanks

I had all photos on a Windows desktop. Got a mac laptop, installed LR5, and put all images from Windows onto an external hard drive. When I go to import them into LR on the mac, they are all locked. Help, please!

"I plugged the external into the Mac and moved a folder of images onto the desktop. It looks like it went from read only to not locked. Is this possible?"
Yes, that's exactly what happened. If you buy another drive, you could copy from your existing drive to the new and your files will be read/write. The new drive will have to be formatted as an HFS drive (that's the Mac's format). If you need to format it, you use Disk Utility which is in the Utilities folder on your Mac. Be careful with that -- it wipes out whatever is currently on the drive. Make sure you format the right drive.
I keep all my images on an external drive, too. In fact, I have two matching drives and sync them so I always have a backup.

How to Hyperlink an image on the hard drive

We are converting to iMac from Windows and keep our photography business data in excel spreadsheets. Each image name links to an image on the PC hard drive. On the iMac in Numbers, I can link text in a cell to a webpage or an email but if I use the path to the location on the hard drive, it doesn't work. What I would like is to pop the image in Safari when I click the hyperlink in the Numbers cell. Example:
The iMac name is butterfly, the user is reniepoole and the path to the image is Documents/image.jpg. If I put file://butterfly/users/reniepoole/Documents/image.jpg into the address bar in Safari, it will render the image OK. If I use the same address as the URL when I try to insert the image as a hyperlink in a Numbers cell, it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to render the image in Safari from a link in Numbers?

Here is a script doing the trick.
--[SCRIPT openFileFromNumbers]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : openFileFromNumbers.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Sélectionner une cellule contenant un chemin d'accès à un fichier.
menu Scripts > Numbers > openFileFromNumbers
Le script ouvrira le fichier.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
(* à vérifier avec Snow Leopard *)
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
--=====
Save the script as Script : openFileFromNumbers.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Select a cell containing a link to a file.
menu Scripts > Numbers > openFileFromNumbers
The script will open the file.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.
