Hi all
Hope to get some help with Elements Organizer.
I have 12-15 years of digital photos that I now want to import into my newly aquirede Adobe Elements Organizer / Photoshop. Since my Nikon names the files with continous numbers from 0001 to 9999 I have multiple files with the same name although they are not alike at all. My previous software had no problems with that since I keep the photos in separate file folders based on import date. I generally import photos after each event and so name the folder with the date and some event info (e.g. 2014.12.24 - Christmas at grandparents).
That is a common situation, I have the same limitation for files not going over 9999 on my Canons...
Now - when I import my photos into Elements Organizer I get a lot of error messages with "same name exist .....) Hmmmmmmm
Please sate the exact wording of the error message, I have never seen a message stating 'same name exist...' or equivalent; only messages about files already in the catalog. Files already in the catalog mean that some files have the same 'date taken' and file size in Kb.
Any suggestions. I'm using a mac and tried to rename files based on date taken. The mac can do that but it takes ages to go into each folder and run the renaming script there.
I also use a similar folder creation scheme (such a date naming is the default for the downloader). That way I never get a message about duplicates for the same file names.
However - I can't be the first or only person with this problem so I figure that some workaround must be known out there. Maybe the import action can recognize date taken or - well. Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out here.
You can alsways set the downloader to rename the imported files with a unique new name, there are many options in the 'advanced' dialog of the downloader. I don't know about Macs, but I don't thing there is a difference.

  • Script to find files with same names with in a folder and it sub folders.

    Looking for script to find files with same names with in a folder and it sub folders.

    Are you just looking to find if any two files underneath a folder have the same name?
    If you just want to know that a file named "whatever" exists in two folders, that's not too difficult, but you probably want to know the full path names.
    Here's one attempt:
    $ perl -MFile::Find -le 'find(\&w, "."); while (($n,$p)=each %file) {if(@{$p}>1){print join(" ",@{$p})}} sub w{push @{$file{$_}},$File::Find::name;}'That will print the pathnames on the same line of any files with the same name that appear anywhere underneath your current directory.
    It's a bit long for a "one-liner", but functional.

  • Merging Log Files with same name

    Hello,
    I have log files with same name 00000000.jdb (because created at different machines). I would like to merge data stored in these two files.
    I tried below approaches which do not work:
    1. rename one of the files -> doesn't work as file header has file name info which doesn't match with renamed value
    2. db dump/load -> dump and load works without error. (i have to dump Entity related Database and Format related Database -- from -l option) However when i try to read the file, it gives error.
    Exception in thread "main" com.sleepycat.je.EnvironmentFailureException: (JE 5.0.103) Catalog could not be refreshed, may indicate corruption, errorFormatId=52 nFormats=51, . UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION: Unexpected internal Exception, may have side effects.
    I am using EntityStore and thus Annotated Entities.
    Does any one has any insights?
    Thanks.

    Yuvaraj,
    As you discovered, it is not possible to use .jdb files from one environment in a different environment.  The .jdb files use an internal format with relationships between files that form the Btree.
    I'm glad to hear you were able to use DbDump and DbLoad successfully.

  • Files with same name

    Hello,
    Is it possible to have several files with different assetId, but with the same assetUri, and in the same folder?
    Initially, I though yes, because the assetId is a unic id that could differentiate two asset with the same assetUri (that is the visible name in the user interface).  But after trying, I noticed that, in this situation, sometime only one asset is shown in the UI (bridge for example), and sometime all the assets are shown, but they are inaccessible (no preview, no possible to open them, no information, just the two assets with the same name represented in Bridge).
    Is there then a way to show, in the user interface, two assets (with different assetId) with a same name?
    Thank you
    ps: by the way, to have two files with same assetUri, different assetId and in the same directory, it makes Bridge struggling (using 100% processor)

    You can use the same class name in different packages.
    The Java API does that (java.awt.List, java.util.List).
    This is odd. What version of javadoc are you using,
    and what command are you passing in, with what classpath setting?

    Do not use MS Word for Mac, it does not support Arabic.  Instead use Mellel, TextEdit, Nisus Writer or OpenOffice.  Try the font Geeza Pro if others do not work.

  • Multiple files with same name--- automatic renaming option??

    I am trying to sort my files by adding multiple files to a single folder. However, many have the same filename, and I get the error " there already exists a file with the name "x", please choose another name" etc. I am dealing with thousands of files here that are very tedious to rename individually. Is there an option or program that either disables this block on multiple files with the same name in a common folder, or automatically renames the files as they are placed in the folder?

    i would like all the files to have different names, but not have to do it myself. they are generated my my audio recorder, which automatically names files take1, take2, take3 etc. multiple sessions entail multiple folders, i am trying to consolidate.

  • Static Files with same name. How does apex determine which files to serve?

    Hello, I'm using apex 4.2.1.00.08 and I cannot figure out how apex manages the static files and cannot find any help in the docs (other that some high level UI description).
    The application is serving some file and I cannot find which one it is in any easy way.
    I have a workspace where there are several files that have the same name, and I cannot understand how apex figures out which one to serve, and also don't understand what is value of associating a file with an application.
    There are files associated with application 0, which don't appear to show up in the "shared components", but can be seen as
    SELECT *
    FROM wwv_flow_files
    WHERE flow_id = 0;
    and can apparently only be deleted using "SQL Commands" inside apex.
    the URL called is something like
    wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=13498126233076320&p_fname=myfile.css
    so apparently the only parameters that matter are the workspace and the file name. The associated application is irrelevant.
    apparently files linked to flow_id 0 have precedence over all the other files ...
    Thanks for clearing up a bit of "fog" on this issue.

    Files associated with an application are referenced using *#APP_IMAGES#*
    Files not associated with an application are referenced using *#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#*I referenced with #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#, but now I see that if I use #APP_IMAGES# the URL generated will also contain the application ID.

I would like to understand the actual workflow for the various cases (file references with APP_IMAGES, referenced with WORKSPACE_IMAGES, file associated with the application, with another application, with no application, with application "0" ...).
    Also, I find it somewhat misleading that you can have files associate with applications that don't exist anymore (e.g. have been deleted).

  • Saving photo attachments from Mail to iPhone

    Merry Christmas
    The MMS debate and iPhone rages on and many iPhone fanatics say 'why do you need MMS when you can send/receive photos as email attachments...?'. If that's the case, is there any way you can save a photo received as an email attachment to the 'Photo' section of the iPhone? Is this yet another oversight from our friends in Apple or have I just not discovered how to do it? If the former, it seems the only way to keep photo attachments is to archive all emails with photo attachments - neither intuitive, functional nor an effective use of memory...or I could save emailed photos into iPhoto when next on my iMac and transfer them over to my iPhone when it's docked, but this somehow seems to underline the iPhone's lack of functionality in this area (a rarity given the rest of it is absolutely superb - aside from the MMS issue, lack of video & non-ability to forward/send multi-SMSs).
    Grateful for any advice, or do just have to write some feedback to Apple and just grin and bare it?
    Cheers

    Sorry to say this but yeah this one is for the feedback page, there is no way to save the photos from the Mail app to the Photo app

  • Remove attachments from mail app with imap account

    Hi Folks,
    I am quite frustrated. I am using Apple's mail app with Gmail (IMAP) and I want to remove all of my attachments from Gmail. I am using the 'remove attachment' feature of mail app to do this. However, it removes the attachment, then uploads a copy of the original email without the attachment. Therefore, I end up with two emails: The original and a copy without an attachment.
    I don't get it. I just want to remove the attachments from my emails. I don't want to delete the original email.
    Any thoughts?

    I am not sure when I will get the chance to test this -- maybe this afternoon. But I had not understood that what you called original continued to have the attachments. If so, this strongly suggests to me that it indeed may be the way Gmail maintains the All Mail folder that is causing this. See:
    http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6581
    If there is a setting to help this, it will have to be one that is selected in the Settings webpage of Gmail, I suspect.

  • Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file

     I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
     Example
    root folder to start search
    \\servera\sales
    \\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
    \\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
    \\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
     I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
    search for and create output file for. The folders to search
    will somewhat be static.
     Thanks.

    I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
    for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
    Laughlin posted are a great resource.

    Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)

  • How to check-in multiple files with same name having different revision num

    Hi
    Can anyone please tell me, how to check-in multiple files with the same name with different revision number using RIDC API.
    For eg:
    First I will check-in a file(TestFile.txt) into a content server with revision number 1 using RIDC API in ADF application. Then after some time, will modify the same file(TestFile.txt) and check-in again. I tried to check-in same file multiple times, however first time its checking-in correctly into server showing revision as 1, while checking-in same file again, its not giving any errror message, and also its not reflecting in server. Only one file(TestFile.txt) is reflecting in server.
    How to implement this functinality using RIDC API? Any suggestions would be helpful.
    Regards
    Raj
    Edited by: 887680 on Mar 6, 2013 10:48 AM

    Hi Srinath
    Thanks for your response. Its not cloning, its like check-in file first, then check-out the file and do some editing and then again upload the same file with different revision number using RIDC. I got the solution now.

  • Can't Overwrite Existing Files with Same Name - Likely a Mail Error?

    Couldn't find this on the forum... Hope I can explain this properly.
    When I design something and send a proof I will send a PDF through mail. When the revises come in I used to be able to just overwrite the existing files on my desktop and re-send through mail. But now programs won't let me overwrite files with the same name anymore. Basically the program says "overwrite existing file?" but then say "file is in use. Can't overwrite."
    Back in Leopard this used to happen when I would have a mail draft open that used the data of the file I sent or was about to send. I would just have to save the mail message as a draft and the file was "no longer in use" so I could proceed as usual. But now it does this all the time regardless.
    Did this make sense? It's kind of hard to explain... But basically now when I want to send a revised file (and this can happen dozen of times in a day) I have to trash the existing file I want to overwrite. Or rename the file, which is confusing for me and my clients.
    Any thoughts?

    I have the same situation as you - sending out pdfs of designed pages and wanting to overwrite them continually. It used to happen on an older version of Mail, then it disappeared and now it's back with the latest version.
    It's more than annoying, it's downright driving me nuts. In the last hour I had to quit Mail seven times.
    Please send a fix for this Apple.
