Automatically Importing Content From Webpage

In Excel it was possible to import data from webpages into the spreadsheet.
Can that be done in Numbers? If so how?
Thanks

Hello
In fact the problem is simply that Safary doesn't finish its work.
After copying from the WebPage
run this huge script:
set t to the clipboard as text
set the clipboard to t
Now you may paste in a Numbers table
When I examined the contents of the t variable, I discovered that rows are correctly separated by $0D aka return.
The task was finished in the process which normalizes the clipboard's contents.

  • Howto: Automatically import files from folder at app launch!

    I've never used iPhoto much, but I am starting to like it. I don't exactly know why, but anyway. A thing I'd like to do (and I don't know if that's possible or not) is have iPhoto automatically import photos from one or more directories (or a directory + subdirectory) when I start the program. I've seen similar questions like mine, and some AppleScripts/FolderActions on how to make iPhoto launch and import files when they are put in a certain folder. But I'd prefer if it didn't automatically start. Sometimes I want to just drop some photos into a folder without wanting to look at/edit them right way, and so these scripts don't suit me. Perhaps what I want, can also be done with AppleScript (I know it's powerful!) but either way, I would appreciate if someone could help me out here or at least answer me if it can be done (in a way that is simple for me!).
    Thanks in advance!

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Auto Import'. Make an Alias to the Folder (File -> Make Alias)
    Drag the alias to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Pop files onto that Alias, they'll be imported next time you launch iPhoto.
    This seems to be an option that was being added to v7 and then not finished.
    You may also be able to concoct something with Automator or check out Hazel

  • Automatically Importing Photos from Finder to iPhoto '11

    Hi there,
    I save all of my photos to folders on my Drive. I'd like to set up my iPhoto '11 to automatically import photos from these folders to iPhoto each time I add a new photo, the way Picasa does. The only glitch is, I want to have the photos listed as Albums and not events. I was able to import my photos to iPhoto translating my folder names to Album names (using Automator) but am unable to get it to work automatically. Each time I add a photo to my folder on my drive, nothing happens...I would have to manually add each photo to iPhoto.
    Help with keeping it automatic and keeping folders as Albums?

    If the Automator action is working for you manually you can turn it into a Folder Action which will fire each time a new file is added to the folder.
    When you create the Automator action there is a template to create Folder actions. Create  new action as a Folder action and add the you're Automator code to it.

  • Need to undo set up after importing contents from old Macse

    I just set up my new MB pro with OX X Mavericks. I choosed the option of "import contents from other mac" and brought my entire user identity and contents from my old MB air. But it created a whole new user identity in my new computer. I don't like it and want to undo it and start all set up again from the begining. Any ideas of how to do it. I have all my contentes backuped, so I'm not worried about that... By the way, I heard many times that it was not a good idea to start using a new Mac bringing all contents from your old one this way. Any comments to this?

    You typed you migrated from your old partners PC - try using their password. It sounds like you've done what is in these articles, but maybe there will be something new.
    Reset Password
    Reset Password using Apple ID
    If you can see the other computer in Finder, try drag and drop copying the files. Can you copy the files to a Flash drive or external hard drive and then download them?

  • ITunes importing content from another user's account

    I have an iPod. My husband has an iPad and his own iTunes account, and we share the same computer. When I connect my iPod to my computer, it imports content from his iTunes account onto my iPod. I do not want this, because I do not have the space required for the content he will get. How can I fix it so my iTunes account will not sync my content and his content onto my iPod? Please respond with any helpful information. Also, I do not want his content to even show up in my library, as I do not think this should happen.

    do you use the same user account/itunes library ?

  • Export/import content from EP6 into NW04

    We are upgrading from SRM3.0/EP6 SP2 (source) to SRM5.0/Portal NW2004s (target).
    The only thing we need to preserve from the source portal are the users and roles. We plan to re-apply the business package for SRM 5.0 after the migration is completed. We are not using any Collaboration Rooms.
    I know there is a migration path from EP6 SP2->EP6 SP9(NW04), followed by an upgrade from NW04->NW04s.
    My question is:
    - is it possible to export content from EP6SP2 and import it into NW04/MW04s?  this will eliminate the complicated migration path from EP6 SP2 to NW04.

    Hi,
    As long as you only need to transport PCD content, I would recommend using normal PCD transport (just did an upgrade from EP6 SP2 to NW04 SP13 and used normal PCD transport without any problems. Will do the same for another upgrade to NW04s). Only if you have KM content you are forced to use the migration tools.
    I am not quite sure about users and role migration since I've only use LDAP as a user store (we manually repeated the AD group to portal role mapping since there were very few)
    There was a conf call on this, but the only reference I can find now is https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/supplemental_docs/prtl204.pdf

  • Read contents from webpages

    Hello there,
    I'm totally new to Java, but I have some experience with C#. I'm reading up on Java (have an old book called "Java 2 Complete" by Sybex) and I was wondering if here is a way to read (parse) information from web pages, to use them to check for the contents and write them to a certain cell/column/row in an Excel file if it doesn't match the current contents.
    I think that the problem is that the information from these webpages is generated dynamically. Because it's difficult to just tell, I've made screenshots of a few of the pages I want to read from and compare. In http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v397/Paynebringer/Java%20Question/ you can see the screenshots. The first one (System.jpg) shows a page with a table. The size of the table doesn't change, and I only want to check the contents, and if anything changed, make adjustments in my Excel file.
    The next screenshot (CPs.jpg) shows a table that is generated dynamically. The maximum size of this table is 50 "events", and only shows events for a certain amount of time. I need to somehow read this table, and interpret the date and time of the event, so I can use that in calculations. Faction2.jpg shows a list of groups on a page. Clicking on it displays further information about that group. However, you can't jump automatically to that page. If you use the link in the list, you jump to a page like Faction.jpg .
    Any and all help will be appreciated.

    I would have saved it as a notepad text file format, and used the seperator to get information as an object and used them. Im new to java, I dont know if you even kan read from a website. But does this site have a database you can retrieve these tables from? That would be faster and easier.

  • Importing calendar from webpage

    Hello! Just wondering how to import a calendar from a webpage to iCal. Specifically, using Blackboard. Blackboard provides a link for the calendar but I do not know how to import that calendar to my iCal. Any info will help! Thanks!

    Hi ngiammarco,
    In order to use your online calendar with Mavericks’ Calendar application you need to enter the account information into the Calendar application.  See this article for information on how to do so -
    Calendar (Mavericks): Add or delete calendars
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14967
    In particular -
    In Calendar, choose File > New Calendar, and then choose the account where you want to add the calendar.
    Name the calendar and press Return. Your calendar appears in the Calendar list.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Automatically import photos from Desktop Pictures folder

    I've already seen that the "Auto Import" requires an empty folder in order to work. This doubles the amount of work required to add photos. Photos have to be moved from the camera to the empty folder, then after Lightroom autoimports, the images have to be moved to the appropriate folder in Lightroom and on the desktop. Boy, that's a great timesaver Adobe.
    I have nearly 20,000 photos in my Pictures folders. These are obviously organized into folders. The largest of my folders is my Travel Photos folder, because I'm a travel writer. In the Travel subfolder, I have subfolders for each county, state/province, and city I've visited. When I return from a trip, I move the photos into the appropriate subfolder.
    How to I get Lightroom to automatically find these new photos without going through the manual import process -- which is far more efficient than the Auto Import?

    I want autoimport to monitor my Pictures folder (E:\Pictures). When I try to modify the settings, it tells me that I can only direct autoimport to an empty folder. With 19,000+ images, my Pictures folder is far from empty.
    There appears to be no workarounds according to the Lightroom user manual from Adobe. The manual says that autoimport cannot read subfolders.
    This is definitely an upgrade that's needed. I can't imagine how any photographer would want to go through all the extra work for the autoimport.

  • Is there a way to import content from a wiki into InDesign?

    Hi all,
    I'm writing the documentation for a software product and I'd like to use a wiki to create the documentation using several users to author the starting content. However, an export from a wiki is never very attractive so I'd like to be able to bring the content into InDesign from the wiki, to massage it to look better. I see that I can export OpenDocument XML from Mediawiki, or a PDF, but can I use either for my InDesign document? This is a large project with over 1,000 printed pages of documentation. It also needs to be undertaken fairly swiftly, which is why I wanted to go this route.
    I have InDesign CS5 and have not yet installed a wiki so it can be anything you suggest.
    Thanks in advance for all your advice,
    Ben

    Yeah, I have an idea... Have you tried the pdf export yet? If it is already formated then that maybe the way to go. But you may need acrobat to save it in another format. If I recall InDesign renders the pdf, which would make editing the pdf in Indesign useless.
    OK, did a quick test with PDF. Load the PDF into Acrobat and save as a word file. Place the word file into InDesign and you will have the styles paragraphs.    You just have to alter the style taste, may be fix a few paragraphs if needed.

  • Any way to import content from AW7 packaged file to modify and repackage?

    Hi, I am new to AW.  Trying to take an existing aircraft systems training program and merge it with another training program that was written with AW5, which modules are not compatible with AW7.  According to the help file, when packaged, the flowlines and icons used to design the program are removed and no longer accessible.  Is there any way to import the content and redesign and tailor to my specific needs?  Thanks.

    Douglas,
    Are you talking about packaged Authorware 5 files? Because it sounds like you are quoting info about packaged files...
    The Authorware 7 authoring tool should be able to open and convert Authorware 5 source files. If all you have a repacked files there's not really anything you can do.

  • I just opened Foxfire and it automatically imported bookmarks from safari, but not all of them. How can I get the rest of them ?

    I still have Safari on the computer with all my bookmarks. Not all of them came over to Firefox. How can I get them over. Also I had some in the toolbar that displayed over the window. Does this browser have that feature?

    Export the bookmarks in Safari to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.

  • Import content from mediawiki to OS X wiki

    Hi,
    i have already a mediawiki running with a lot of content on a linux box. i would like to transfer/export those content to the wiki on the Xserve. is there a tool or functionality on Xserve to do that. It can save a ot of time
    thanks
    saga.

    Don't do it unless you are a small company with no cloud based aspirations or virtualisation ideas.
    So many of my clients are now looking to move from OSX wiki to another wiki that can be put in the cloud (Amazon or the other main players) or virtualised.
    Apple is out of the Pro server game, and no virtualisation options outside of the "desktop" space. Even VMWARE "supported" mac hardware is 4 years old.
    Apple has a very nice wiki server and effectively a simple click a button solution. But OSX wiki is specific to Apple and apple hardware and I am still struggling to find an export script.
    I now have clients that started small and now have  many 1,000's of pages of data in OSX wiki's that can't virtualise them in there data centres, or migrate them off old server hardware to new "server" hardware and can't migrate them to there cloud based IaaS solutions with Rackpsace or Amazon etc..
    If you have any plan's to be anything more than a "mum and dad solution" then stay with MediaWiki or migrate to another wiki or hybrid wiki like open atrium or others. Most of these do have installers or can compile on a mac. So you can use your hardware still to reduce costs.
    Just save yourself the heartache a few years from now when your get bigger and the Mac mini in the corner can't support your growth or your business strategy changes and "dedicated tin" in a server room is not part of that strategy

  • Can Oracle Purchasing automatically import requisitions from oracle project

    is there a way whereby,Oracle Projects automatically creates requisitions for goods and services
    required without having to enter requisitions manually in oracle purchasing and
    assigning project, task, and expenditure type automatically? If it is possible
    kindly tell me which modules are involved and kindly send me the setup steps
    required in order to be able to do so.

    Hello
    It is possible to interface project based requisitions from Oracle Projects to Procurement. This functionality is part of Project Managment (Projects FP_M). In Projects Management you may setup inbound deliverables on the workplan. A user may then open the deliverables page, select the appropriate deliverable, and from the action menu run the initiate purchasing.
    You may want to review Project Management User Guide for details.
