Use the Automator Action "Rename Finder Items"
(Automator is in the Applications Folder)
You have these options in rename:
Click "Show this action when the workflow runs", then save the workflow as an App

  • How do I rename more than one file at once in Finder?

    I am new to Macs and I have a bunch of files I would like to rename to the same thing e.g. Work (1), Work (2) etc. I was wondering if there was a way you could do this on Macs like you can on Windows based computers.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi shauniemac,
    I do this on a regular basis with a shareware utility called File Buddy.

  • Finder will not copy more than one file at a time to another folder

    The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “EMAP_14_map.pdf” can’t be read or written.
    (Error code -36)

    The startup drive is failing, or there is some other internal hardware fault.
    Back up all data on the drive immediately if you don't already have a current backup. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

    Currently you cannot share a folder, only individual files. Sharing of folders is a feature that is coming in the future.

They were in the CC of the email I received. is there anyway to drag them all into an address book group all at once. I hate having to add and address and then having to find the address and then add it to a group. thanks
    no, there is no way to do that, sorry. you need to control-click on every email address one at a time and select "add to address book". if an email is in the address book already that option will not be there.

    So now that you have repeated the same thing three times that doesn't make things any clearer at all.
    You are copying files from where to where?
    How are you attempting to copy files, software or click and drag?
    Any other detail would be helpful.

  • Can not color label more than one file at a time

    Hi,
    I've had this problem since 10.6.6-ish, i can not color label more than one file at a time in the Finder.
    Wether i select two, twenty or twohundred only one file gets color labeled.
    It doesn't seem to matter if i assign a color label through the File menu or right click > label.
    Figured a re-install might fix this but it hasn't (even a clean install without restoring any kind of backup).
    Does anyone else have this issue and/or a fix for it?
    Thanks,
    Jay

    Aaaaanyone ?

  • How do I highlight more than one thing at a time on a Mac please

    how do I highlight more than one thing at a time on a Mac please

    Do you mean items in Finder?
    To highlight (select) a whole block of items :
    - click the top item you want
    - hold down Shift
    - click the bottom item you want
    The whole range from top to bottom will be highlighted
    To select random items :
    - click the first item
    - hold down the Command key
    - click any more items anywhere in the list
    Just the items you clicked will be highlighted
    This technique works also in apps like iTunes, iPhoto, etc.

    How can I order more than one picture at a time in iphoto?

    It's also wise to crop the photos to the print size you're ordering so you have control over what portion of the image gets printed.  Otherwise, the image will be scaled so the smaller dimension fills the paper cropping off some of the oither dimension.

    How do I delete more than one email at a time from my i phone 5C

    With your Mail app open and the listing of the messages, tap Edit at the top right.  Then check each circle on the left side of the messages to delete.  When you have checked those to delete, tap Trash at the lower right.
    Next tap Mailboxes upper left, under accounts select the account, then for the account tap Trash.  Select Edit upper right, and at the bottom, Delete All, and confirm Delete All and all will be removed at one time.

  • Any way to transcode more than one file at a time?

    I've noticed that Final Cut Pro X, when doing transcoding (for Optimizing or creative Proxy media) only processes a single file at a time (whereas it can handle processing up to 5 audio files at once), and is only using about 70% of my processor(s) -- I have a dual core, Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, about 500MB used by FCPX during the processing.  So this thing should have PLENTY of processor and memory headroom to use, and it should certainly be able to transcode more than one file at a time.  Yet it isn't nearly taking full advantage of the processors, or the RAM.  Is there any solution to this problem?

    Try the 'add folder to library' option under file on the main menu.
