Add a button to activate or not preview file in the folder

Is there a way to do this thing?
I'd like to add a button at the top of the finder windows to quickly able or disable preview files in the specific folder.
Thanks
Massimiliano

Open a Finder window, select View->Customize Toolbar, and add QuickLook button to the toolbar. The only other way is to invoke CMD+J and turn off or on icon preview.

"Premiere Pro stores the preview files in a folder you can specify" But how?

Specifying a Preview folder
On page 265 of the PDF it states:
Premiere Pro stores the preview files in a folder you can specify.
QUES 1
But how do you specify the folder? I just rendered a test clip and was not offered the option of specifying a folder. And there is no other mention of preview folders in the PDF.
Preview Files for Encoding
On the same page is:
Note: Adobe Media Encoder does not automatically use Premiere Pro preview files for encoding. To make use of the Premiere Pro preview files, you must select the Use Previews option in Adobe Media Encoder for each encoding process.
It is not clear from the PDF what is the quality of these preview files.
QUES 2
If I select the Use Previews option when exporting, aren't I degrading the quality of the export by encoding from an already encoded preview?
QUES 3
For the absolute best quality, should Use Previews be turned off?

Preview File location is determined in the overall Project Settings.
Set this location before you render any Preview Files.
Project > Project Settings > Scratch Disks...
Some documentation regarding the Scratch Disk location is buried here:
Specify scratch disks to improve system performance
QUES 2
If I select the Use Previews option when exporting, aren't I degrading the quality of the export by encoding from an already encoded preview?
In most (if not all) cases... yes.
Previews are intended for real-time playback in the Timeline only.
You should not use previews for export.*
QUES 3
For the absolute best quality, should Use Previews be turned off?
Yes!
*There are a few semi-obscure exceptions to this general rule.

Bridge will do the job. View > Sort > ByType. Then you can choose a group of one type and put the files in a separate folder.

ITunes could not copy ''file'' because the file could not be written

Recently, I have been experiencing some problems with iTunes and my iPad 2. Whenever I try to sync movies into my iPad, I get the error message ''iTunes could not copy ''file'' because the file could not be written''. This message always appears whenever I try to sync a few movies at once. When I check my iPad after it's synced, I find that a few of my movies successfully sync into my iPad, and can be played. However, some movies show up on my iPad but cannot be played. The video thumbnail just shows a picture of a blank TV screen. Is there any way where I can fix this problem? Thanks.

Hi JimmySlax.
I was having the same issue with music and movies but it had been ok before. The sync would freeze on a random file and then i had to take out the USB cable to clear it. After trying all sorts of things i saw someone mentioning about Anti virus and firewalls. I am using McAfee so i disabled it as a test. After this i could sync music and movies without issue!!!!! So in my case the firewall/anti virus was causing a problem. McAfee updates itself a lot so I am guessing something has happened in a recent update that impacted iTunes.I am not sure if this kind of thing is also causing your problem but it sounds very familiar.
Hope this helps.

I'm trying to write an Applescript: when I add a file to a folder, I want finder to name it "1" and increment the other files in the folder by 1. i.e. once I drop a new file into the folder, the file originally called "1" will be renamed "2" etc

I'm trying to write an Applescript. I have never used Applescript but my boss has just asked me to write a script so I dutifully nodded and said "Yes Boss"...
The funtionality I need is that I want finder to rename the files in folder when I drop a new file in. When I add the new file (file neame: "1") to a folder, I want to increment the other file names in the folder by 1.
So when I drop a my new "1" file into the folder, the file original file called "1" will be renamed "2", the original file named "2" will be renamed "3" etc
I'm creating a 'stream' of images. When I add a new image i want it to nudge the other images in the folder along.
Thanks guys!

I bought a macbook pro on november 2011 wich had Lion OS installed on it. Playback plug-in in Mainstage 2.1.3 does not play files from the beginning (it leaves out like 50 mSecs or so). Is there a way to revert to Snow Leopard OS?

As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17. They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

ITunes could not copy "file" to the "iPhone" because the file could not....

I recently downloaded a few episodes from the iTunes store through my iPhone. All episodes worked fine until I synced my phone with my Mac. After reorganizing some music, I found that I had to place all the tv shows back into the phone. However two episodes would not sync. The error messages:
iTunes could not copy "file" to the "iPhone" because the file could not be read or written.
Attempting to copy to the disk "iPhone" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Syncing everything else works perfectly fine. I am under the impression that these two video files are corrupt. What's strange is that they worked perfectly fine when I downloaded them directly on my iPhone. The "corrupted" videos DO play on iTunes, but they will freeze. I have to skip over that particular time in order to play the video.
So my question(s):
Are my files corrupt? How would I go about to fix this issue? Is there anyway I can place the SD versions of the videos instead the HD ones (Given that it's even possible)? I would hate to spend money again to re-download these episodes because I was provided with incomplete files.

This happens time to time with me for some reason. So frustrating there inst a better way that iTunes response to it. Once the failure to copy and the other errors come up, you have to unhook the iDevice and close and reopen iTunes. Sometimes you have to kill the application if it is hung.
Then, go into the sync settings and UNCHECK all media. Sync. Then go to the summary page and check "only sync checked songs and videos" and go to MUSIC and check ONE album. Sync. Repeat this one by one until you get the error. then uncheck the album that caused the error and repeat. Very very annoying but the only way i have gotten this to solve.

Photoshop does not close files and the program does not quit.

I have been on the phone with tech support for over an hour. Photoshop does not close files and the program does not quit. I am on a Mac and I am using Photoshop CC 2014.

Have you tried uninstalling Photoshop CC and re-installing? Another thing to try is to remove all Photoshop CC plist files. There is also the Cleaner tool:

Assuming that you tried to install Win 7 in bootcamp.
Power on the machine and press and hold the "option" key when you hear the bong sound.
Select the Macintosh HD icon and press "return" or just click on the icon.
Once booted into OS X go to System Preferences and select the Startup Disk icon and configure startup to use the Macintosh HD.

the Wifi storage options are interesting but it seems they only allow to read files from the device on the iPad but not transfer files to the storage device via WiFi.
I'm looking for a possibility to use the iPad for photography while traveling, without the access to a computer.
Shooting photo's in RAW format crates pretty big files that will fill up the iPad's memory pretty fast if you shoot a lot during a (let's say) month long trip.
my idea was to use load the photo's to the iPad so i could view them and sort out any bad ones. then copy them over to the storage device so i can continue using my CF cards for shooting. I have an image thank for copying the photo's directly to the HDD but it would be so sweet to be able to check them on the iPad before hand.
any suggestions?

Check out pogo plug device, it allows you to upload camera roll via wifi.

I can not move files to the trash.

I can not move files to the trash. When I drag the file to the trash it does not move, but it does appear in the trash and when I empty it, the file is erased. When I go back to my files, the file I just deleted is still there. I keep getting the "startup disk is full" message so I need to delete files, but I can't. Anyone know a solution to this?

try getting a external drive such as a usb flash drive or a hard drive to transfer the files from the startup disk, and free up space.
hope this helps!

Lightroom not finding DNG files in the folder

I am using Lightroom 2.5. My library includes a folder with approximately 5000 images which is located on an external hard drive as is my Lightroom catalog. I use the external dive because it is part of a RAID 1 array to backup my images.
My problem began when I used Lightroom to convert the 600 RAW files in the folder to DNG files. Prior to the conversion, the library tab showed that there were 5000 files in the folder. After the conversion, the library tab shows that there are only 4400 files. The DNG files are actually there but Lightroom will not recognize them. I can use windows explorer to see them and that there are 5000 files in the directory.
I have tried to synchronize the folder, but it did not help. I have also tried to write metadata to the files to make sure that was not the problem and it was no help. As a test, I also copied the directory to my local hard drive and imported that into Lightroom. That folder has the correct 5000 images, but of course non of the ratings that I had applied to the 5000 files to organize them so the local folder is useless.
Can anyone suggest a means of convincing Lightroom that it should recognize the missing DNG files that are actually there?
Thank you.

John,
Thank you for your suggestions. I do have filters off.
I started up Lightroom today and again, the Folders tab only showed that the folder had 600 files which corresponds to the missing 600 DNG files. Furthermore, in the grid view, only the 600 DNG files were appearing. But, after a minute and without my input, Lightroom loaded up the 4400 JPEG images into the grid and the DNG files disappeared both from the file count and the grid view.
When I look at the All Photographs folder in grid view, I can find the missing DNG files so they are in the All Photographs folder.
I did as you suggested and I optimized the catalogue. Now when I launch Lightroom, I see the missing 600 DNG files in the grid view and the file count for the folder. But that only lasts a few seconds before the 4400 JPEGS appear and the DNG files disappear. So the optimization made the loading faster as it should, but did not help Lightroom to find the DNG files.
Now when I try to synchronize the folder, It does show that there are 600 files to be added. However, synchronization does not help and DNG files are still missing.
I can see the DNG files in a folder called “Already in Catalog” from when I tried to synchronize the original folder. After optimizing the catalog, I told Lightroom to write metadata for the DNG files. Once I did that, some of the missing DNG files did appear in the grid view of the original folder (but not all of the 600 missing files). However, the library still only shows 4400 files in the folder.
One last oddity. When I change the sort to “user order” from “capture time”, I see only the 600 missing DNG files in the grid view. The 4400 JPEG files are gone. But when I change the sort back to capture time, the JPEG files and the few DNG files are there again and most of the DNG files are gone.
This bugginess is only occurring on the external drive. The same files saved to the local hard drive all appear in the file count and the grid view.
Thank you.

Registry edit Apple requires is causing windows to not detect files on the DVD drive

Registry edit Apple requires is causing windows to not detect files on the DVD drive. If I set up the registry it requires then the files will not be dected & if I do it the way windows requires then the files will be detected but ITunes will not be able to use the optical drive. Is there any kind of patch or something someone can help me with?
Thanks O'Bie
