Can Automator ingest a CF Card?

Does anyone know if it's possible to let Automator copy the whole content of a CF card, as it is inserted, and paste all the pics into a specified folder? Or anyway to let Automator copy the content of a specified folder into a different one? I ask it because i noticed that copying the pics of a CF Card and paste them into any folder (via Finder) is much faster than using any other ingest software i know, so far... Thanks..

As already noticed, Automator workflows are "slow", so you better write an AppleScript for that.
But the best way to realize your wishes would be a shell script, that periodically looks for a folder (on your CF card) and if it exists, copy the files to the specified folder on your Mac.
This needs a little knowledge of scripting …
So maybe the best solution is a program called Do Something When, written exactly for such cases:
Connect the CF card.
Open +Do Something When+ from within the System Preferences.
Enable "Automatically start at login"
Make a rule:
When -CF card- mounts
open -CFCopy.app
Save it
The "CFCopy.app" standing for a very simple AppleScript:
tell application "Finder"
duplicate every item of folder "CFCard:Fotos" to folder "Macintosh HD:Users:baron:Desktop:xxx:" with replacing
end tell
Open ScriptEditor.app and paste the lines to a new document
Replace the example paths in the script -as you can see- starting from the name of the volume and seperated with colons.
Save the document as Application (even better as an Application-bundle) with all options (startup screen etc) disabled

  • DVD-Audio and "can not detect sound blaster card" with Audigy2 Va

    I recently purchased an "Audigy2 Value" card from an eBay user, because I recently purchased some DVD-Audio discs. I downloaded the Audigy2 drivers from the website, and the Creative MediaSource player. 5. Surround sound worked fine for me, though sometimes the driver would reset to the default 2/2. sound and I would have to re-select 5. sound, which was annoying.
    Then I was completely unable to get the MediaSource player to recognise my DVD-Audio discs, and the EAX functionality of the player would never work. The EAX logo never appeared in the player. When I tried installing the MediaSource player from an install disc, I got the message "can not detect sound blaster card". Then I discovered the world of EEPROM problems.
    I followed advice from some other threads, including using ScanPCI to get information on the card, which yielded the following result.
    When installed on my machine (Asus A7A266 motherboard) the ScanPCI reads:

    (Just a note: above you can clearly see that it does not say I have an Audigy, it thinks it is a SBLi've. Is this normal? The card IS an Audigy 2, it says so on the card.)
    So, I put the card back on my own PC, thinking this has fixed my EEPROM, but I get the same as before. Subsystem ID 0002h. And of course the install software will not detect the card.
    I realise that I could go back to using the web drivers, but this still leaves me with MediaSource not recognising the card and not enabling DVD-Audio or EAX, which is why I bought the card in the first place!
    I have heard that the VIA chipset is possibly to blame for the EEPROM problems on the Audigy cards, and certainly it seems like it is not permanent, since it gave different information on the other PC. So now I am seriously considering getting a new motherboard.
    Do other motherboards cause this same problem? I don't want to buy another board and get the same trouble. All I want is to be able to install my MediaSource and have it recognise my card so I can listen to my DVD-Audio discs.
    Cheers,
    Russ.

    Figured out my problem. Installing the drivers from the web to begin with was a bad idea. They just did not work properly with the card.
    The "card not found" problem has gone as well, after installing it in another PC. I am also using the proper install disc now, as the other one I was using turned out to not be for the Audigy 2 value after all, but was an Audigy 2 install disc. That easily explains the "Card not found" error. The differing results from the ScanPCI program are still bizarre, though.
    Thanks to all of the people on the forum who posted information in other threads to help me deal with this issue. For now I am sticking with the original drivers from the disc and I am not upgrading.

  • Can i upgrade my graphics card in my laptop???

    i have hp dv6 7206tx with nvidia 630m 2gb graphics
    i want to upgrade it with nvidia 700 or higher......
    can i ????

    Hi,
    Basically you can, with a cost and I believe this cost may be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:
    New card price,  and WHERE you can buy it because laptop cards are not the same as desktop cards. You can't buy from any normal shop,
    Need new system board (may be),
    Need new cooling system because generally speaking more powerfull card pumps out more heat (you want more powerfull card don't you?).
    May need new PSU because your current PSU may not suitbale to the card. (I ordered a machine with Nvidia card and I needed to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal 65W charger. They simply rejected my order).
    Labor cost.
    Many, many packets of Asprin.
    Hope this helps.
    BH

  • Can not access the media card files Blackberry 8310 - HELP

    Can not access the media card files Blackberry 8310.
     I had a battery drain problem. The unit would only last 16 hours before completely drained. Purchased a new battery with the same result. I figured that I should try a complete reset so I did a hard wipe. Once that was done and I loaded the unit back up and returned online, the battery drain problem was resolved but now I can not access the media card.
     Here are the messages:
     “A media card has been inserted that contains encrypted content which will be unaccessible by this device”
     I can see the files. I have transferred them to my PC via the SD card but I can not open them. Here are the settings:
     Media card support – ON
    Encryption Mode: - Security Password & Device
    Encrypt Media Files – YES
    Mass Storage Mode Support – OFF
     Please note – I can not change the encryption mode since it is set by policy
     Security Options – General Settings – Content Protection – Disabled
     The version of Desktop Manage I am using is 4.2.1.8. When I try to use the Media Manager to move the files, I get an error message and can’t move the file. If I access the file on the card and try to display it, I get:
     Unable to display file /media card/ pictures/ing000000xx.jpg.rem
     Here is what I have tried (from the advice on this board):
     1)     Read the files directly off the media card – No good
    2)     Create a “new” folder on the media card and move a file into it then try to read it – No good
    3)     Email the file then read it – No good
    4)     Reset Encryption mode to off then try – Can’t do it – IT Policy setting
    5)     Be sure that the password was set the same as before the wipe (setting is password & device) – Can’t do it – The Blackberry prevents me from using an old password.
     So I think I can’t read the files because I can’t replicate the encryption key. Could that be right? My problem is that I do not understand why this would be the case. It is still the same device and since it knows what the old password was (because it would prevent me from using it again), why would it not generate a key to access the files?
     All I am trying to get off the card are pictures on my 6 year old … some are priceless. Can someone help me do this? One would think that this should not be this hard but from all the postings I have found, it seems that it is. And yes, shame on me for not moving the files before I did the reset (THAT will never happen again!) but this being unrecoverable is unconscionable given how many seem to find themselves in this situation.
     Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Not sure why you couldn't see them using mass storage mode. Did you have the pics stored on your media card? Try going to media-menu-explore-media card-blackberry-pictures See what the extension is on your pics. If any have the extension such as .jpg.rem they are encrypted.

  • Can I use one gift card for two apple ID at the same time?

    Can I activate one gift card for two different apple ID and use amount from gift card like bank account?

    No, an iTunes gift card can only be redeemed onto one account, and it can be used to buy content for that account (you can't, for example, redeem it on an account and then use some of it for gifting content to another account).

  • Why can't i use credit card on app store its money on it and its an visa card

    why can't i use credit card on app store its money on it and its an visa card

    Credit cards do need to be from the same country as your account, which may or may not apple, but if you're visiting from another country and trying to use, for example, a UK card in the US app store, it won't work.
    Could you have typo'd a number? Or could the card be expired?

    Is this a visa gift card? I seem to recall people having issues with credit card gift cards.
