Access file placed in my application folder

I have a TXT file in my application folder.. I have not added it into the resource.. How can I access this file. I do not want to add this file to resource.
Your help will be appreciated.

I don't think i migrated anything over, i had a bit of trouble restoring my accoun from a backup and never actually did.
My time mechine backups are currently on a hard drive adn the only way to access the data is to run StellarPhonixMacDataRecovery every time to accesss my data.
But thats an entirely other problem/ storey.
So if i press commmand R when it starts do i need my Mac OX Disc becuse i baught the newest version on MAC OX X from the app store.

.app file not installing in Applications folder

Hi. I have created a package installer using Xcode's PackageMaker. I want to install a .app file into the applications folder, but when i am running installer package, it's showing that the software is installed succesfully. When i checked the applications folder, the application i m installing is not there. Can anybody help me to solve this?

I'm also having this problem with Package Maker (3.0.4, in Mac OS X 10.6) but I think I've discovered the solution.
First, when you test the installer, open the "Installer Log" window (select "Installer Log" from the Window menu, or press command+L). Then, proceed with the installation as normal, and check the Installation Log window once you reach the end of the installer. You should see a message in the logs which is something like:
Dec 16 15:48:57 yourhostname installd[16558]: correct/path/Applications/YourApp.app relocated to incorrect/path/Applications/YourApp.app
In my case the relocated path was actually build/Debug/MyApp.app inside my Xcode project directory.
The cause for this is, I think, a slightly hidden option in Package Maker. Under the Components tab in Package Maker (with your app selected in the left-hand "Contents" pane), select your app from the list of components, and click the "Relocation..." button in the bottom-right of the window.
This should open up a modal dialog with a list of options titled "Finding Component to Upgrade". The default option Package Maker seems to insert is "Combination search for <your app's identifier>". Under the configuration for this option, there is the description "Will succeed if an application is found at the specified path, by LaunchServices or by doing an exhaustive search".
From what I can tell, these options configure the installer to search the system for an existing version of the app to upgrade. If an existing version is found, the installer tries to replace it, in the location the existing app is in, rather than installing the app in the location you may have configured in Package Maker.
The search uses the application identifier string (eg "com.yourcompany.yourapp"), so it may find any version of your app just about anywhere on your system. In my case, I think, the installer is actually finding the copy of my app in my Xcode project's build directory, and trying to upgrade/replace that version.
The solution may be:
a) clean out all your build directories, and remove any other versions of the app you may have on your system, after you've built your installer with Package Maker and before you actually test the installer (you'll need a copy of your app to build the installer). If I do this with my build directories, the app is installed to the expected location.
b) change the "Relocation..." options for your components in Package Maker to not use Combination Search or Exhaustive Search. Instead use one of the other options, such as "Check Specific Path" (only upgrade existing versions if they're in an expected location like /Applications/yourapp.app). Exhaustive Search may be suitable if you include and exclude specific directories.
Read through the different options available and decide what's best for your app. You may like to use different options during development, as upgrading existing versions may be useful functionality for the end user of your app.

Trying to convert R3D to mov but have the converted file placed in the same folder as the source R3D file.

Hay all :-)
Had a quick search and couldn't find an answer to this so asking the question :-)
It looks like i'm going to have to use Premier Pro to convert all my R3D files to mov because *Another Piece of Software ;-)* just doesn't recognise them :-/
I know i can import the R3D files into Premier and then export then as mov which is fine but the problem is in the export window theres no option to place the exported file into the same folder as the original R3D file, there is only the option of choosing a folder which, doesn't pre-designate itself to be the original files folder for some reason.
I have 100s of R3D files to convert to mov and having to find and choose the correct folder for each of them individually would be an incredible pain.
Thx for any help :-)

Wow ... just checked through PrPro myself and queued out to AME, and even went into Prelude to try a transcode. You're right, you have to specify a location, or have one in the preset group ... but it has to be a specific one, there's no option for "original folder".
I'd suggest a wish be placed on this, as there's times I'd want to use it also.

Accessing files from custom web application

I have created a JSP application using UIX components that you can search for files within in IFS. After searching for the files I want the user to click a link and access the document, much like the webui interface in the out of the box IFS. I'm able display the list of files found but I'm not able to allow the user to click the in MY APPLICATION to see the files. What would be the url to access these files that are stored in IFS. PLEASE HELP.
Jeff

Hi,
I also have the same problem .
I have to open the document from the repository after clicking on the link and end user should be able to edit and save it in the same place in the repository.
Can you suggest me any solution if you have found?

Accessing files/folders inside other application folders

How can I have an asc file from one application read text
files in another applications directory?
I have multiple applications creating text files stored in a
directory called docvid (this is my application directory). I also
have another completely different application that needs to access
these text file. How do I use the "sandbox" stuff to allow this
other application to read these text files?
This code works fine:
custEmail = new File("/streams/"+userName+"/"+"email.txt");
but this doesn't
custEmail = new File("../email.txt");
It says:File operation open failed.

Open the router setup page,Under Storage tab,click on the subtab "Media Server" and enable the option "UPnP Media Server" and click on save settings.
Also,you need to Map the drive on the computer to access it...Click on Start -Go to Start>>Run/Start search and type "\\192.168.1.1" (Without quotes) and hit enter, and it should prompt you for the Username and Password, in the Username and Password use "admin" all in lower case and click Ok...Now you should be able to see your Drive... You need to right click on it and select "Map Network Drive" and check the box Enable and below click on Finish... This will Map the USB Drive on your computer... Once done you will be able to Send and Receive the data from your Computer to the Drive...

Include files in root of application folder when building

Hi, can anyone advise how I would go about doing this in my build properties. I have a dll file that I need to be place in the root installation aty the same level as the “myapplication.exe” I can see how you can create your own sub dirs, and tell it to go into one of them, but cant work out how to just get LabVIEW to plonk it in the installation root. Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

i worked it out, I was trying to do this at the application exe build, but then realised i can manually locate the dll into the root when i build the installer.

Migration assistant stalls on "applications folder"

hi all
i'm having an odd problem upgrading a g4 dual gig desktop system to tiger using the erase and install option, after cloning my drive to an external fw hd. when i finish the install and get to step 3 (transfer your information) the migration assistant stalls on my old "applications" folder - it just sits there with the word "calculating" next to it. i tried leaving it alone for a while to no avail. with the "applications folder" checked (and calculating) the "transfer" button is greyed out. there is also an option for taking files and folders from the drive with the cloned system, and when i uncheck the "applications folder" and check the drive where this folder resides, "transfer" becomes active. i tried doing it this way, but it just copied the files to a folder on the upgraded system, without copying all my library support files, prefs and such. anyone have any idea what's going on? this has always worked flawlessly for me in many other installs. i'm stumped!
thanks

g4 dual gig "mirror face" Mac OS X (10.4.5)

well, none of that resolved anything. here are a few more details: after installing 10.4 and getting to the "import from another partition/computer" section of the migration assistant the file list shows the applications folder i need to access, but instead of a size it reads "calculating." even if i let it sit for several minutes this doesn't change. i ran the usual disk utility repair permissions and verify disk procedures, and everything comes back fine. if i try to boot from the clone everything seems very slow: boot up takes quite a while, it hangs on "waiting for apple file service" for several minutes and "login window starting" also takes forever. once it gets done i get a blue screen hang. if i boot into the new install of 10.4 and run the migration assistant, it doesn't see the partition with my cloned system at all. the first time i tried migrating the files, when it wouldn't see the applications folder, it did allow me to copy the files into a folder on the new system drive. this didn't help much of course, since it didn't bring the support files over. i'm resigning myself to having to reinstall all my apps manually, a big PITA.

Regarding the File Format on the application server

Hi,
I would like to know the file format (ANSI, UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32) of the file placed on the application server in my program. Can anyone help me with the Function Module or Class or any other way which will retrieve this information.
Thanks
Sarves S V K

Hi
You can try the standard class CL_ABAP_FILE_UTILITIES and the method
CALL METHOD cl_abap_file_utilities=>check_utf8
    EXPORTING
     file_name = filename
    IMPORTING
     bom       = file_bom
     encoding = file_encoding.
Check the possible values returned by encoding and BOM:
NO_BOM
BOM_UTF8
BOM_UTF16_BE
BOM_UTF16_LE
ENCODING_UTF8
ENCODING_7BIT_ASCII
ENCODING_OTHER

Home Application Folder

Hi all,
It has recently just dawned on me that I not only have an Applications Folder, but an Application Folder in my Home Folder as well!! What exactly is this for?
I have only ever used the Applications Folder that all my apps get stored in automatically. My Home Application Folder has always been empty. I have two accounts on my MacBook, one for me and one for my wife. Mine is an Admin account, her's is a Standard account. I recently installed software for her TomTom sat nav on her account. Instead of putting the app in the main Applications Folder with everything else, it stored it in her Home Applications Folder. It is the only thing in that folder. Why would it do this? I do not remember it asking if the app was only for one user (even though it is!!). Obviously, when I log into my account, that tomtom app is not present in the Applications Folder because I assume it is in her Home applications Folder.
Why has this happened when every other app installed went automatically into the main Applications Folder? What exactly is the Home Applications Folder for and should I be using it?? Lastly, how do you install app's to the Home Application Folder instead of the Main Applications Folder if you want too? These are probably stupid questions, but are questions that would help me understand OSX much better!!
Please help!!
Thanks for the advice.
Regards,
Lucky

The difference, as you have noticed, is that items in a user's ~/Applications folder can only be accessed by that user. Application installers usually default to the main Applications folder, but you can install in pretty much any location (although the recommended location is one of the Applications folders). The installer may also provide a 'choose location' option for the install, and if installing from a disk image you can drag the application to your folder of choice.
Installing an application into the main /Applications folder (note that this requires admin access) makes them available to all users, but there may be cases where you want to restrict the access to a specific user, or just don't want to make it available to everyone. Also, a user can install applications into their own account if they don't have admin access to install to the /Applications folder - it just depends on the preferences of the user (or the admin). Personally, I use my user ~/Applications folder for script applications and for trying out new stuff.

No more backup of the applications folder in Time Capsule

I realized that time machine didn't backup my applications. It worked OK 2 times after I setup the new 3TB time capsule but then it did stop end of July. I just realized it yesterday as i couldn't access a backup of the applications folder from last week.
Any suggestions? Is it a known problem

Yes, there is a known bug where some parts of the OS are not being backed up.

Applications folder showing apps in one but not the other

Hey everyone! I just bought a new Macbook Pro and migrated my files over. My applications folder in the HD has all my apps, but for some reason they are not showing in my User applications folder.
Originally I installed them for all users, the only user was me. What is the problem here and can I fix it?

Hi your applications are stored in the first Applications folder (Macintosh HD/Applications) so that they can be used by ALL users of your Mac. If you have any applications that you wish to restrict to only one user then you'd have to install in that user's Applications folder.
OS X is a multi-user OS which is why it is designed in this way. If your Apps were stored in Macintosh Hard Disk/Users/YourUserName/Applications only you would be able to use them. If you then added a second user (or a test user) you'd have to install the applications again for the new user to be able to use them.

Application Folder! AGain!?

I have just one simple question. In a finder window, under Machintosh HD. Is there supposed to be an "Application Folder"? OR is it supposed to be in the "home" folder? THX!

By default, the system installs a "Application" folder at the top of the hard drive. However, if applications are installed by non-admin users, they may well get placed in an "Applications" folder directly under the user's home folder.

Help, Moved applications folder accidently

Hi All,
while playing with my new wacom bamboo tablet I've accidently moved my entire application folder (over 17Gb) onto my C drive (not in users folder)
Now I cannot move it back to my home folder.
when trying to move it back I get the error message "this folder is in use by lion and cannot be moved"
I've tried copying them back to my home folder but lion is still using the original files in the new C drive location.
I would imagine all the permissions and update data is with the original files.
I'm struggling to understand how I could have moved them so easily (without me realising I've done it, or altering any system properties/permissions at all), yet I cannot move them back. - surely this safeguard should work both ways?
Any suggestions would be appreciated>
Regards,

I have no idea what you are referring to with a "C" drive - is that an external hard drive? The proper file path for the Applications folder is HD (Macintosh Hard Drive) > Applications. They need to reside there for Software Update to find them. Here is a screenshot of mine:
I see no Applications folder in my User folder:
Maybe you could send screenshots of where yours is located - that might be helpful to try to figure things out.

Accessing files stored in a folder on portal through application

Hi
I have to access the files that are stored in the folder in "irj" folder on portal, through one link.
the path i gave is:
<a href= "http://myserver:12345/irj/<folder name>/<file name>">
but it is not taking this path and gives the error that requested resource not found.
Can anybody please help in this regard, whether this way is correct or have to specify the path in some other format.
Thanks & regards,
Anupreet

Hi,
as Dieter stated implicitely, irj/root on the file system is the "root" folder when calling .../irj via http. There is no access to the irj folder by default.
On NW04, the mapped folder in fact is ...\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root (so there are two irj folders, the second counts).
Hope it helps
