Auto-naming of files in folder

Hi
I've got a question in regards to the process of naming several files in a folder. I know that in Windows it is possible to mark all files in a folder and then rename them all without having to rename every single file. Let me give you an example;
- I have a folder og photos name "Summer 2009".
- In this folder there is 65 files(photos)
- I mark all items and rename them "Summer 2009"
- After this, the files in the folder be named: "Summer 2009 (1)", "Summer 2009 (2)", "Summer 2009 (3)" etc. etc.
In this way it is easier to keep every photo arranged in the order I prefer and it does not take long to name the files.
So my question goes; is there a such a function or a similar one on Macs?
Kind regards

Hi KunalSharma,
There is no real way of doing this by rules. OPA does not have a concept of when an entity is added (ie there is no way of asserting in the rules which entity was added first).
This should be done by whatever is adding the accounts, or it could be done via custom code using an entity inference listener.
Cheers

  • Auto selection of file from folder during uploading??

    Hi all friends,
    Iam facing with one problem I am developing one uploading software for that i have used swing and servlet.Now my problem is i want to give auto selection of file from one folder means user just copy the files from any computer on network and paste it in predefind folder.And when they click on upload button it should start uploading of file one by one and after completion of uploading it move that file into another folder one by one.Now my software doing it perfectly but if user copy and paste any file in that predifined folder from network computer during uploading then they have to click upload button again after completion of first queue of files(for example if user first copy 10 files and start uploading and inbetween uploading of that 10 files if user copy another 10 files from network computer then they have to click on upload button again after completion of uploading of first 10 files).But my user requirement is they want to click on upload button once only at the time of starting my application and my application automatically select the file one by one from folder and send it to destination.Means if they copy the file from network machine inbetween uploading or any other user from network send file in that folder then my application should select those file automatically and start uploading means they don't want to click on upload button again.Can any one plz guide how I can slove this problem.Below r my codes:-
    Upload.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    try {
    suspendflag=true;
    Resume.setEnabled(false);
    Suspend.setEnabled(false);

    File ff=new File("d:\\DTMS\\Upload");
    File[] files = ff.listFiles();
    fileList = new Vector();
    if(files == null)
    textArea.append("There is no file");
    return;
    else
    for (int j = 0 ; j< files.length ; j++)
    fileList.add(files[j]);
    java.util.Collections.sort(fileList, new FileComp());//sorting by size
    new Thread(new Runnable() {
    public void run(){
    for (int k = 0; k < fileList.size(); k++)//loop for queue {

    String str=fname.getName();
    log("Destination:" +" "+ dest);
    log("Uploading Progress\nPlease Wait....");
    result=doPost(fname,dest);//method for read file & send to servlet
    String str2="Transfer apparently failed.";

  • Auto naming files in Acrobat 9 Std

    Is there a way to have files that are scanned to Acrobat 9 Std, auto named?
    I find that the default name "untitlted" is causing problems... especially over-writing the last untitled file...
    Any help?

    Scan to TIFF in the application that came with your scanner and then import the tiffs. Not what you asked, but a better workflow. Many scanners will scan to file and autonumber them.

  • Why do I often get some folder in my Trash named Recovered Files?

    My computer often has problem when sutting down. Some time I even have to mannually switch off the computer because it doesnot shut down itself. Also I keep getting folders named Recovered files in my trash. Are these relevent files. Can someone please explain this?

    Usually they are installer files that you don't need. Open trash and make sure it is not a Doc or something else that you think is important, and put it a folder if you want keep it, but you can usually trash it.

  • How to auto insert a number array with size of 20 into a named excel file with the positon is from A1 TO A20?i use lv6.1

    how to auto insert a number array with size of 20 into a named excel file  with the positon is from A1 TO A20?i use lv6.1

    You don't need us to give you an example, as the example already comes with LV. Go to Help>>Find Examples and search for "excel". You will find an example called "write table to XL". You should note that the example doesn't do that exactly, because it writes a 2D array from 2 to N.
    You can modify the example by using only one for loop (instead of nested loops) with a 1D array or by going into the Set Cell Value and modifying it to accept a second cell value for the Cell2 terminal and wiring in a 1D array instead of the single string. If you do modify it, be sure to save it under a different name, so you don't overwrite the original.
    To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try searching this site and google for LabVIEW tutorials. Here and here are a couple you can start with. You can also contact your local NI office and join one of their courses.
    In addition, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide and the LabVIEW user manual (Help>>Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf).

  • [Solved] Error : The file or folder path /Probl?me 1 does not exist

    Hello,
    I encountered this error
    The file or folder <path>/Probl?me 2 does not exist
    while I was trying to open a directory already extracted from a zip file containing directories with special characters. In this case, it is a "è" that was misinterpreted as a "?".
    I searched the forums and on google, the solutions proposed do not work for me. Although, I have to deal with these files written in french, I would like to have my locale in english (US), with a system wide support for special characters.
    Attempt 1: Adding the option : iocharset=utf8 into the fstab, like this :
    fstab :

    #.host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs defaults 0 0
    This solution does not work, because after adding iocharset=utf8, in front or after a "defaults", after a reboot, while mounting the filesystem, there is the following error message:

    It is complicated to remove these directories. I had to use the inum to get precisely these directories before removing them.
    $ ls -il
    total 8

    $ find . -inum 1577566 -exec rm -i {} \;
    rm: impossible de supprimer « ./Probl\212me 1 »: est un dossier
    Note that the hypothetical character 'è' is represented has a '\212', a 'È' if seen as a extended ASCII character.
    These directories cannot be deleted this way :
    $ rm -r Problème\ 1
    rm: cannot remove `Problème 1': No such file or directory
    or
    $ rm -r ProblÈme\ 1
    rm: cannot remove `ProblÈme 1': No such file or directory
    What should I do to be make the operating system recognize those special character, and interpret them correctly ?

    I found a working solution, but better solution are also welcome
    I had to have fr_CA not only in utf8 but also in iso88591. I had to modify the /etc/rc.conf this way :
    LOCALE="fr_CA" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    HARDWARECLOCK=""
    TIMEZONE="America/Montreal"
    KEYMAP="us"
    CONSOLEFONT=
    CONSOLEMAP=
    USECOLOR="yes"
    To preserve the english US language system wide, I had to add the following line in the /etc/profile :
    # Allow french special character while in en_US
    export LANG=en_US
    The character misinterpreted by a "?" is now seen :
    as a "è" in dolphin
    as a "?" in the console
    It is now possible to access the folders.

  • Prevent using special characters in file and folder names?

    I've recently begun adding windows clients to my network. In doing so, I've found that on my file shares from OS X server, the windows clients are unable to see files and folders which have names containing special characters such as / ? < > \ : * | ”
    Unfortunately my accounting department has been creating files with these characters in their names for several years. I would like to find if there is a way to prevent them from using a defined set of characters in the file and folder names to prevent them from "accidentally" doing so in the future.
    I've found that by turning off streams support on SMB in OS X server, that my windows clients can at least see that a file or folder should exist, albeit with a corrupted file name. Removing the special characters from these names allows the proper name to become visible and the file accessible.
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    PS: basically it's not a url encoding issue.
    I can url encode "ça alors: it's a déjà-vu",
    and pass it in a url query string. But my issue is not
    with an url query string, it's with an actual URL, that is,
    the actual name of the directory. It
    can't be "ça alors: it's a déjà-vu". But I
    want to allow the user to name their directory like that
    if they want. So I need a way to encode this into characters
    that can be used for an actual
    directory on the server.

  • How to display the Get info window for a file or folder

    Hello,
    How can I display the Get Info window for a file or folder using Applescript - instead of selecting it in the finder and using Command-I ?
    Thanks.
    lenpartico

    The item property that the Get Info was opened for is read only, so it doesn't look like you can just throw a file path at it. You could do something like telling the Finder to reveal the item, then keystroke the command, e.g.:
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 10px;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #FFEE80;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
    tell application "Finder"
    reveal "Path:to:your:file"
    activate
    end tell
    tell application "System Events" to keystroke "i" using {command down}
    </pre>
    ... but this doesn't seem to be much different than the regular method. There are other methods to get various information, what are you wanting to do?
    Edit:
    Hmmm, I could have sworn (I do a lot of that these days) I tried Hiroto's method, but that does work. It still seems to be a roundabout way of doing something though.

    I currently see some changes to the menu from right clicking
    a file or folder that looks like it is from icloud, but there is something
    on the menu that I just noticed now. I am wondering if it is also from
    icloud. There are two options named, "copy to folder" and "move to folder."
    Is it from icloud or is it not?

    This is the Finder crashing and relaunching. It's probably caused by a dodgy contextual menu module (CMM). I've noticed people complain that a Stuffit Module is causing this problem. CMM's are stored at HD/Library/Contextual Menu Items or Home/Library/Contextual Menu Items. Try removing them and logging out and back in again, a little trial an error will find the one causing the problem.

  • CS6 Beta ended by crash - How/Where to keep my Auto-Saved Recovered file ?

    Hello,
    I was working on Photoshop CS6 beta on Lion OSX since one month with no problem.
    Yesterday seemed to be the last day of use (1st june annonced however) and Photoshop CS6 Beta shutted down since I was working on it.
    On the re-opening it asks for a licence key so I try to buy one month rental on the e-shop but the 3 bank cards tested failed. So I gave a call to the commercial service and they told me that they do not take in charge rental but only full licence and that I can download the trial for one more month if I want to.
    So, I will replace the beta by the trial.
    But :
    - How can I keep my Auto-saved Recovered file I was working on when crashing (pretty important work)
    - Where the recovered file is saved on the hard-drive ? And, can I make it works whith CS6 non-beta ?
    A lot of thanks in advance for your help.
    Kind Regards

    As I understand it - having not (fortunatley) had the opportunity to test this - if PS crashes and you have auto-save switched on, you need to re-launch PS and it will automatically open with the recovered file(s) in the state they were at when auto-save last saved them. Auto-save stores files temporarily in a special folder that's located at the same file path as your scratch disk location. (My scratch disk is at root level on a seperate drive, so it's easy to see the auto-save folder if I look there, but if you can locate your scratch disk, you should see the auto-save folder also.)
    Of course, the fact that you can no longer open PS is going to present a problem here. I'm not sure if you could re-access the file via the trial version once that was installed and pointing to the same scratch disk area.
    I might have got this wrong, but I think it's correct... Feel free to disprove my post!

  • Question about auto-saving multiple files with the same template

    Is there any way to do this? The template will never change - but I will need to save it as a new file each time I open it. Just want to know if there is an automatic way to do this when the template is opened each time? Preferably numeric, starting from any number. I suppose I can just save each file myself - but as it gets up into the thousands of files - I'm not going to want to.
    It would be really cool if it could auto-save the file, assign it a number, and then place that number in the top corner of the saved document.
    If anyone can help - let me know. C.

    OK. First add a text field to the document, say "text1". You probably want it to be read-only. You can duplicate it to all pages if needed. Then open the template document, open the interactive JavaScript console (Ctrl+J), and enter the following code:
    // Interactive Console JavaScript
    // Get the folder this file is in
    var folder = path.replace(documentFileName, "");
    // Save multiple copies (from 1 to 9)
    // with the number in the text field
    for (var i = 1; i < 10; i += 1) {
        getField("text1").value = i;
        saveAs(folder + "template" + i + ".pdf");
    After you paste the code, highlight the lines and press Ctrl+Enter (or the Enter key on the numeric keypad) and Acrobat will save multiple copies to the same folder as the template. Replace "text1" with the name of the field you've set up and "template" with the name you want the copies to have before the number.

  • CS5 Exporting Artboards - Auto Naming

    Hello, is there a method to set preferences for auto naming (or turning this off) when exporting artboards as jpg's? I like the feature and the ability to export different artboards but I do not want illustrator to automatically add the number to the end of the file, i.e. "-01".
    Also it seems that in the Adobe CS4 and CS5 the prrogramers have targeted illustrator towards Flash too much. Everyone is not creating Flash files all of the time and I do develop flash sites but still prefer Fireworks to illustrator. Maybe they are trying to intergrate the Fireworks/Flash features (I am glad they added the editable gradients as Fireworks and Flash has had for years) but in Fireworks, during export, you can choose to auto name or not and Fireworks will not add the nuber if you do not want it to. If I want my image to be "logo.jpg" anf that is what I type in the export dialog then why does illustrator assume I want "logo-01.jpg"?
    Thanks for any help.
    Ned

    Thanks Monika but I am not always exporting/saving jpg's for the web (72dpi) and sometimes I need to export at higher resolution so that will not work. I think there needs to be a feature or preference to turn off the auto numbering/naming of files. Iguess for now that does not exist in the standard export.

  • LR2 not auto stcking PSD files from editied Tiffs , only from edited CR2 ?

    If i have a raw file, and go "edit in" to CS4 and save the edit as a PSD it imports it to the library and stackswith the raw file no problem.
    But if I open a TIFF, that is also stacked to the raw, and edit that in CS4 and save that as a PSD it doesn't auto import it at all ?
    Why does it only auto import PSD files when they are created from a RAw file ?

    I did a bit more fiddling around with this and found out that to get it to import PSDsautomatically, when you use the "edit in" command for the TIF you need to select " edit a copy with lightroom adjustments"
    If you select " edit original"  or " edit a copy "  it does not work.   you will have to manuall syncronize the folder.
    So why is this ?  I can't follow adobes logic on this one.
