How to change names of referenced files

Normally when I import RAW/JPEG pairs into Aperture I check the "rename original file" tick box so the original file names have my desired format (yyyy-mm-dd_myfilename-nnn). However, I inadvertently have imported a few projects with that box unchecked, so while the images in Aperture (and those I export) have my desired naming, the original referenced files still show as DSCF1234 etc.
Is there a way to change those original referenced frills to my date-name-index number scheme short of deleting the entire batch and performing a rename again - I have already dome various edits on them and don't want to lose those.

If you do not need to save the version names, yes.  Batch change the version names and set the flag "Apply to original files".
Select all images that need renaming.
From the main menu bar select "Metadata >Batch Change"
Select a suitable preset for the file name you want in the Version name format drop-down menu.
Set "Add-Metadata From" to "None", unless you want to add metadata as well.
Press "O.K."
A caution: I have never tried this on "RAW&JPEG" pairs. You may have to do it twice, with each kind of original set as master.  It is working well with JPEGS, but for RAW files "Apply to original" may not work.

  • How to change name of uploaded file

    I am using the a multi-part form and the pl/sql gateway to enable users to upload files to portal. The files automatically get stored in the wwdoc_document$ table. The key to the file is a column called "name" which consists of a sequence number and the file type e.g. 4747.gif.. I want to change this name to a different value.
    When I change it using the standard sql Update statement, none of the pdk apis work on the record; they all return errors. I am able to change this value as long as I use a unique value, I just can't run any of the wwdoc apis against the row after that.
    Does anyone know how to change this value for a given row???

  • How to change name of home file on mac

    Hi, not entirely sure of the name of this file. Currently it is "anthonycullinane" which is my fathers name, it was changed when my iMac was taken into an apple store for a service, i don't have a clue why it would've been changed but i'd like to change it back
    if you look in the favourites bar in the finder window you'll see what i mean.
    I've attempted to "unlock" the file to allow changes to be made but there is no option to rename the file. The text input is grey and doesn't allow change

    You cannot rename your user account name easily. You need to do some extra steps and use the root user, so be very careful and make a backup of your files before modifying anything.
    Then, follow these steps > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1428

  • How to change name of downloaded file by URLLink.acsm

    When I browser my URLLink.acsm:
    "http://host:8080/fulfillment/URLLink.acsm?action=...."
    it download a file named "URLLink.ascm". How can I change that file name to "title.acsm" insteed of "URLLink.ascm"?
    For example: "ShakespearInLove.acsm".
    I'm using ACS4 4.1
    Many thanks,

    Thanks for this thread !!!
    ...that Is a question I asked myself today as I used Adobe ADE for the first time.
    (I hope they enhance it --- it is REALLY unpractical for reading eBooks).
    When you open the URLLink.acsm file in a Text-Editor,
    you will see a lot of tags inside < and >, like:
    <fulfillmentToken>
      <distributor>...</distributor>
      <operatorURL>...</operatorURL>
      <expiration>...</expiration>
      <transaction>...</transaction>
      <resourceItemInfo>
        <resource>...</resource>
        <resourceItem>1</resourceItem>
        <metadata>
          <dc:title>...</dc:title>
          <dc:creator>...</dc:creator>
          <dc:format>...</dc:format>
          <dc:publisher>...</dc:publisher>
          <thumbnailURL>...</thumbnailURL>
        </metadata>
        <src>...</src>
        <downloadType>simple</downloadType>
      </resourceItemInfo>
      <hmac>...</hmac>
    </fulfillmentToken>
    I tried to change the filename inside the <dc:title> tag.
    However this is the filename on the server where you download your eBook.
    Does anyone know an "<output-tag>" that lets the user determine the filename?
    Or any other solution??
    Strange that on the whole www this question has only been asked once...

  • How to change the default "Safe" files in Safari?

    I would really appreciate if anybody could teach me how to change the default "Safe" files using AppleScripts, Folder Actions or .plist files. I really would like to have some files to open automatically after download, specially .pps files, and safari doesn't recognize such files as "safe". I tried to find out reading the help files but got lost.

    I'll be gratefull for any help. Thanks.

  • Volume ID change - cannot find referenced files

    It seems that recent security update or Aperture update caused a change in handling CIFS/Samba volumes. I have my photos stored on network server which is exporting CIFS volume under the name 'Photos'. It worked fine until I rerun Aperture after recent update and reboot. All files are now unreferenced and I am getting the 'The file xy cannot be found because the volume on which it resides is currently offline'. I found that the problem is that all files are referenced with volume name 'photos'. (note the lower case letter 'p') Once I reconect the photos, the volume is now reported as 'Photos' (with capital letter 'P')
    I tried the usual trick with opening the files directly from Finder but this does not work. It seems I will have to reconnect all files. (Anyone knows how to reconnect all photos in all projects at once ?)
    It's seems to me that this is caused a change in behavior of OS X or Aperture because the server configuration has not been changed in years.

    I'm having the same issue.
    I moved some of my masters to an external drive.  I recently tried to move the masters for one project back into my main Aperture library, but 15 of the 916 masters in this particular project did not move back.  In Aperture I'm getting the little "The referenced image’s master has not been found." badge on these 15 images. 
    The master is still resident on the external drive, but the value in the "File Name:" metadata field in Aperture does not match the file name on the external drive.  The file name on the external drive is the correct and original file name, but I have no idea why Aperture has a different value (e.g. IMG_1128 29.CR2 vs IMG_1128.CR2).
    I've tried renaming the name of the file on the external drive, which didn't make a difference.  I also tried moving the file to the local drive, but that didn't change anything.  I can't see any way to edit the metadata field in Aperture.
    I've tried "Repairing" my Aperture Library, but that made no difference.  I haven't tried completely rebuilding it though.
    Selecting one of the images and clicking:
    "Relocate Original" gives me the following message:
    "Unavailable original files cannot be relocated.  The selected original image is either offline or not found. Please reconnect it and try again."
    "Consolidate Original" gives me the following message after letting me choose "copy" or "move":
    "No Referenced Files.  The selection doesn’t have any referenced files."
    "Locate Referenced" gives me the following message:
    "No Referenced Files.  The selection doesn’t have any referenced files."

  • Changing names for compressor files, nothing works yet.

    I've read different posts on how people have to change the name of the file before compressor will complete any sort of compression.
    Happened to me too constantly. So I'd just change the name once I got that red exclamation mark and then it would just finish compressing just fine.
    This time I changed the name before I clicked submit.
    The name of the file was Animal Control.
    But before clicking submit I named it Animal Control Audio, and Animal Control Video for both files.
    And I still got the stall out with the red exclamation mark.
    This is no good since I feel like I can now no longer rely on Compressor if I need go go somewhere.
    Thanks for any solution to my misunderstanding of the program.

    I'm having a hard time understanding your question. When exactly are you getting the exclamation mark warning, before or after submitting?
    If you're watching the History window in Compressor after submitting your encoding batch, then QMaster writes a file with the name you specified. In this case, when Compressor is still the front-most app, it will see that new file being written in your destination directory, and will put up the exclamation mark ... this is normal behavior.
    Also, have you tried setting a different destination to see if this clears up whatever problem you're having?

  • How to change default application in file context menu

    I know you can change the application that opens a file in the file;s info window (command i) and then double clicking the file opens it in that application. However the context menu still shows the same original default application. How to change what is shown as default in context menu?

    You can't. You can change the default app in Get Info which will change the first listed app in the context menu to that default app. How the context menu is built is not under user control.

                 if possible give me some examples.
    thank you.

    For every row you need to create a new Vector and add the data to that Vector. Then the Vector is added to the TableModel.
    If you add 6 items to the single Vector, then you will get 6 columns. So you need to create 6 Vectors and add a single item to each Vector and therefore you will end up with 6 rows with 1 column of data.
