Automated scripts for importing & sharing on Mobileme?

How would I go about writing a script to automate the following process :
1) (Trigger for script): I insert my SDHC card from my camcorder into my iMac card reader.
2) Launches iMovie and imports all clips as new event.
3) Creates a single project by including all of the events just imported.
4) Shares the project on Mobileme.
Currently I'm only managing to view, compile and share movies of the kids when I get (a very rare!) few hours at the weekend. If I could just pop the card into the reader on my way out to work in the morning it would transform my usability of iMovie and mobile me, as I could then view and share the 10-15mins of precious footage I took the night before.
Many thanks,
D

Thanks for info.
The work around I'm using at the moment is to plug in the card in the morning, then access my Mac remotely using Jaadu VNC via my iPhone to do the import and publishing.
Does the job, although a little more cumbersome and need reliable 3G / WIFI connection.

  • Automate script for import data

    automate script for importing data to the cube from txt files.
    Ex: - I have below 2 files for import
    aaaa.txt
    bbbb.txt
    For the above simply i can write esscmd or Maxl script for importing files .
    Esscmd :
    IMPORT 3 "\aaaa.txt" 4 "N";
    IMPORT 3 "\bbbb.txt" 4 "N"
    my question , suppose if some more files added to the existing files, for example cccc.txt got added ,how can i write a code for this?

    Well I guess this will do
    dataDir=" " # Give the data directory path here
    maxlFile="maxl1.msh"
    cd $dataDir
    for file in `ls *` ;
    do
    maxlStmt="import database sample.basic data from data_file '$file' using rules_file 'xxx.rul'
    on error write to 'xxx.log';";
    printf $maxlStmt >> $maxlFile
    done
    ls * is lists all the files in the directory. If you want to be more specific and if you yhink tat your data folder may contain more files then you can use "ls *.txt" if your file extension to load is txt.
    Well I haven't tested this as I am on vacation...So you can just follow the similar way.
    This is only for the 3rd point which you said

  • Is there a way to launch an app and a set of actions on startup? (Like an automator-script for ipad)

    Hi all,
    Is there a way to have the ipad execute a series of tasks at startup? (like an automator-script)
    Thank you!

    Hi all,
    For all you who have been looking for a solution for the problem above, here it is :
    http://www.kioskproapp.com/
    The Kiosk Pro app allows you to run any html-scrip locally stored on the ipad!
    Which is great! Because not only does it allow for an infinite amount of possibilities next to the video-looping, it also keeps on working with one click after a reboot!
    The learning curve of usage is quite simple for the problem above, since they provide extensive information on the website and have great customer service.
    I am very very happy I found this app, and I really hope this post saves a lot of people the headaches I've suffered in the course of finding the solution.
    Enjoy!

  • Automated script for setting authorization limit in GL

    Hi,
    I am trying to create an automated script in our General Ledger application to set authorization limit. I have looked into code of form GLXSTEAL.fmb. There I found that, GL_AUTHORIZATION_LIMITS_PKG is being used for setting authorizations limit.

    I have found another way to achieve this. By inserting the data directly to GL_AUTHORIZATION_LIMITS table.
    INSERT INTO gl.GL_AUTHORIZATION_LIMITS
    (set_of_books_id,employee_id,authorization_limit,CREATION_DATE,CREATED_BY,LAST_UPDATE_DATE,LAST_UPDATED_BY,LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN)

  • Help with Automator Script for QuickTime Pro Movie Conversion from Vado

    All my videos from my Creative Vado do not show up in iMovie 09 initially on import. By trial and error, I have discovered that the old version of QuickTime Pro 7 ($29.95) will convert them to .mov files that can be seen by iMovie 09 once the converted videos are imported back into iPhoto.
    I am (very) new to mac things, and it looks like in theory I could use Automator to handle to conversion process, and perhaps even the re-import into iPhoto. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about this? Where would be a good site to post this as a project that I could pay some one to help me, provide an automator script/workflow?
    Are any other solutions available? Buy Final Cut etc?
    PS (Rant): One of the reasons I bought a MacBook Pro and iLife was to take advantage of what I thought was supposed to be Apple's superior multimedia handling. It seems ludicrous to me that with a MacBook Pro running the latest software (10.6.4), and using the latest versions of iLife, I'd have to buy an old version of QuickTime to convert my videos so that I could manipulate them in iMovie. Sigh.

    MPeg Stram clip will export files which are compatible with iMovie '09. It (iMovie )can import the following.
    DV
    AIC
    Motion-JPEG
    Photo-JPEG
    MPEG-4 (Supported profiles)
    H.264 (Supported profiles)
    Apple Animation (Movie '09 only)
    Apple Video (iMovie '09 only)
    iMovie '08/'09 will not accept files containing extraneous data tracks such as:
    'Tween
    Text
    Chapter
    Closed Caption
    Secondary audio such as AC3
    etc.
    iMovie '08/'09 Will not accept files that rely on proprietary/third-party components such as
    DivX
    WMV
    XviD
    etc.

  • Automation scripts for Instant client install\ add TNS entry

    Guys,
    I'm trying to develop an VB application,which uses data from an Oracle server residing in my neighbour's system.
    My system doesn't have oracle client installed.
    So, I've made use of Oracle Instant Client package-OCBC.
    Now, I'm looking for an automation script that would do the following in order
    1)Uzip the instant client into a directory. (say C:\ondemand\instantclient)
    2)Add this directory into the PATH environment variable
    3)Set up Service Names with tnsnames.ora ie. Create a TNSNAMES.ORA file to configure my Oracle instance connection.
    4)Set the TNS_ADMIN environment variable to be the path to the tnsnames.ora
    Can someone help me out with automated scripts?
    Thanks,
    Bhagat

    Don't worry. I've solved it.
    One of the files I was using stated: Always set the TNS_ADMIN environment variable or registry setting to the full path of the tnsnames.ora file.
    I took that to mean including the "tnsnames.ora". It doesn't. It really does mean just the PATH part.
    However, with this corrected, I got the pulldown populated. But with only the first part of the name, from the tnsnames.ora file. tnsnames.ora had mydb.<domain>.com. The pulldown only had mydb. Manually adding the .<domain>.com to it worked.
    Now on to the next problem. <GRIN>
    Cheers,

  • Automated script for deploying, removing, install again the WSP using stsadm command line

    Hi,
    Am having a requirement in my  staging and  prod  env. to add, install,retract and remove wsp.
    In my dev env i used to perform with  Visual Studio ,so i didnt  face any issues regarding retracting and removing the wsp from solution store.
    But in my staging and prod since i dont hav VS installed, i would like to have a automated script[ NOT in POWERSHELL] using stsadm command line tool which adds the solution from a folder [say D:\DeployWSPs in staging and Prod] to the solution
    store  and installed onto a particular web application [  NOT "All WebApplications"].
    and if  the wsp already exists , i need to retract it & remove from solution store and add it and install again.
    can someone pls help me with the  automated script .also if  the folder contains multiple WSPs how can i doa  for each loop [ iterate through  wach ".wsp"  file and perform install/...task].
    i know stsadm -o adddsolution, deletesolution,m retractsolution etc. But the issue is that customer asked me to do this ina automated fashion.  manually entering all these commands is a  cumbersome activity.
    note: when i used powershell on 2 / 3 occasions, the wsp was retracted successfully,but failed to successfully remove from the
    soln store.
    so i thought i will depend upon on stsadm again like old version of SP since its supported.
    Das

    I would recommend you to use Power Shell so that you can do the automation easily. You can use
    power shell for earlier version of SharePoint as well. 
    Look why removing the solution is getting failed. May be you are trying to remove before the solution is retracted. Wait for retract and remove the solution. Refer to the following post for more information

  • Spotlight automator script for dupes?

    i suppose what i'm looking for is a script for spotlight that will identify duplicates on my hard drive with the exact same name and either delete them for me, or give me an easier way to delete them myself (besides weeding through each mp3 and deleting whatever comes up twice). i posted earlier about how when i migrated to my new computer last summer i inadvertantly made two copies of all my mp3s and i'd like to delete the duplicates.
    any info would be greatly appreciated.

  • I need a script for importing a PDF into IDCS3

    I used the script that came with InDesign... specifically PlaceMultipagePDF.jsx...
    And that worked well.. except for the fact that we just found out that this large PDF has oversize pages (larger than 8.5 x 11) and that plugin is not shrinking to fit. I had a plugin for IDCS2 that would give me import options.. but this PlaceMultipagePDF.jsx doesnt seem to have any options...

    There's a script in the InDesign Interchange site called PDF Multipage Import MAC that will do it, if you know the percentage that you want the PDF scaled to.
    It's my Martin Sretr. It's written for CS, but I think you know how to deal with that, Chris.

  • Needed:  Script for importing Photoshop layers, converting to shape layers

    I've uncovered what seems to be a "bug" in After Effects CS5.  When I import photoshop artwork in layers, and then try to apply effects to an individual layer, such as a color change, a drop shadow, or pretty much anything including puppets, when I later try to render the movie, it crashes.
    My solution has been to laborously go through and convert any layer where I need to apply effects into an AE shape layer, copy the mask over, etc.  Its not much fun, but it does solve the bug.
    I know this could be done with a script, but I don't have the chops or the time to write it.
    Has anybody else written such a script?
    In essence, it needs to:
    1.  import a Photoshop file in layers.
    2.  select each layer in the file and
    3. create an AE layer
    4.copy the mask from the PS layer and
    5. paste it onto the AE layer.
    6. keeping the same registration and
    7. keeping the color of the PS layer.
    Easy, huh?  For somebody who knows what they're doing, which doesn't include me.....
    :<)McFrisco

    Wouldn't it be just more efficient if you provided one of your crashing PSDs along with the AE project so we can check and verify? If you contact me off-forum I can assure you confidentiality and even provide you with an upload location. I even looked up your otehr threads, but I feel we never really reached a point where we could make out something definite, so rather than trying to fix things the hard way, it may make more sense to let someone take a look. This may be something trivial, after all and be perfectly fixable by doing something differently...

  • Script for Importing data

    Hii All
    I want to run import of all the datafile s with help of script
    I have many datafile s with differant users and I want to run db import
    Plz Help me How to write a script .
    Thanking You

    GaurAVS,
    I don't know what were the reaosns that made you selected this option, question did you try using any other options to move data from source to destination. Couple of questions for you?
    1. One single export dump for each schema user or is it more than one file?
    2. I assume from your earlier post, you got more than 50 schema users in your database?
    Here is simple bash script, assuming you have one export dump file for each schema user. Make a directory call data and move all the dump file, please read script carefully for more instruction and modify according to your needs.
    In addition before running this script on linux box run follwoing from command prompt
    $dos2unix import.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    function importfile
         echo "importing $file for user $1"
         imp $1/$2 full=y file=$file log=./data/`basename $file dmp`log
         test=$?
         if [ $test -ne 0 ]
         then
                echo "Importing for user $1 failed ..."
             exit 1;
         fi
    function listfile
        # you have to supply username and password here
           for file in ./data/*.dmp
           do
             echo "exporting $file for $1"
             # If you used username as filename for each export dump
              unset username
              +username=`basename $file .dmp`
              echo "Username is set to $username"
              # Now to get password for this username ; you can create a file with
              # this format username=password
              # $1 -- Username
              # $2 -- Password
              unset pw
              pw=`cat ./data/pwd.txt.txt|grep $username|cut -d'=' -f2`

  • Help with script for "Import AD users from CSV with checks first"

    Hi everyone.
    Can anyone tell me if i am on the right track here?
    I want to be able to provide a CSV with users and import into a new AD domain/forest. But i know there already are some AD accounts so i need to run some checks. For now i am checking only on Name and Email.
    The issue i have is is with "write-host "$UserFullName was not found. Creating user.". It outputs this 19 times which is the same amount of times as there are users in AD in this OU.
    Not sure if my method is right. 
    $allImportedUsers=@()
    $allUsersArray=@()
    $searchbase="OU=PL,DC=EUECS,DC=CORP,DC=ARROW,DC=COM"
    $path = "OU=Users,OU=PL,DC=EUECS,DC=CORP,DC=ARROW,DC=COM"
    $allImportedUsers = Import-CSV polandusers_edited.csv
    $allUsersArray = Get-ADObject -LDAPFilter "objectClass=User" -SearchBase $searchbase -Properties * | select *
    $allImportedUsers | ForEach-Object {
    $Firstname = $_.givenname
    $Lastname = $_.surname
    $UserMail = $_.EmailAddress
    $UserFullName = $Firstname+" "+$Lastname
    $importUserSAM = $_.Samaccountname
    $allUsersArray | ForEach-Object {
    $currUserFirstname = $_.givenName
    $currUserLastname = $_.sn
    $currUserMail = $_.mail
    $currUserFullName = $_.name
    $currUserSAM = $_.samaccountname
    $currUserDN = $_.DistinguishedName
    if($currUserFullName -eq $UserFullName) {
    write-host "CSV $UserFullName matched on name"
    $userMatched=1
    if($currUserMail -eq $UserMail -AND $userMatched -ne 1) {
    write-host "CSV $UserFullName matched on email"
    $userMatched=1
    if($userMatched -ne 1) {
    write-host "$UserFullName was not found. Creating user."
    $userMatched=0
    If only i had a cool signature!! ;)

    Move below to outside the inner for-each loop:
    if($userMatched -ne 1) {
    write-host "$UserFullName was not found. Creating user."
    $userMatched=0
    so the bottom should look like
    }if($userMatched -ne 1) {
    write-host "$UserFullName was not found. Creating user."
    $userMatched=0
