Can I set an 'anchor' in a folder on a remote Mac

I access a remote folder on another computer (which is probably but not certainly a Mac) which houses the lengthy list of my company's webpages.  I don't need the vast majority of these files and sub-folders, so (assuming the remote computer IS a Mac) is there a way to set an 'anchor' on this folder, so that it always opens to the section of this lengthy list of files in which I'm interested?  Does OS X support such a feature?

You could create an Alias or a set of Aliases to the remote files or folders you want to access frequently.
You could even collect them in a local folder and then put that local folder on the Doc for fast access.
Or
You might be able give the remote files/folders you are interested in a unique Label and then us a Finder Smart Folder to collect these labels into a single smart folder (a smart folder is just a search results display for files and folders).

  • How can I set up a second Contacts folder on my IPhone

    I have an Iphone and a Palm Pilot.  I want to stop carring the Palm, and have the contacts there put on the IPhone.
    I came upon Plaxo, which would allow me to sync from desktops and laptops to the net, as well as syncing with my IPhone.
    However, it appears that Plaxo will sync with the IPhone Contact folder, then wipe out the subset of numbers I keep there.  I want to keep the contacts separate - especially because of the ringer tone controls.
    Is there a way to create a second contact folder that I can sync with Plaxo, which will keep separate the current IPhone contacts in my existing Contacts folder?
    My existing contacts folder was created, in a way I which I knew, when I got the phone.  It is a 3G, using 4.2.1 (8C148)..

    If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?

  • How can you set up a password protected folder in OSX 10.8.2

    I'm trying to set up password protected folder on a new mac desktop. Version 10.8.2
    I have done this before in Mountain Lion and previous OS versions by creating a "Disk Image" in the disk utitlity. It's been easy. But in this newer version, it doesn't give me the same options that I've seen in the past nor see on many online posts. And when I try to create, it just gives me an error message saying there is not enough space, which is crazy as there is over 500GB open.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    It still works in Disk Utility (DU):
    1. Determine one file that shall be inside the DMG, e.g. one on the Desktop (obviously, you can delete it later again). say it's xyz.jpg.
    2. In DU, without a drive selected, click New Image.
    3. Expand to Finder-like view by clicking on the arrow next to Save As.
    4. Click on xyz.jpg, even if greyed out. It will show up under Save As with the .dmg suffix.
    5. In the bottom part, select Name, Size, and all other parameters. You want encryption, so pick one, then click Create.
    6. Next, enter and remember your password. Probably you will NOT want it to be remembered in Keychain...
    7. That's it: at the same location as xyz.jpg you now have xyz.dmg. In the Finder it's open, and you can manage its content until you eject it.

  • How can I set the file name and folder for output to PDF from another application?

    I am developing an application in Microsoft Access where the printed reports are to be saved in PDF format for archive purposes. I can send the output to Adobe X, but the default file name is the Access report name and the folder selected is the one last used.
    What I need to do is to create the file with a specific name (which changes for each run) and to a specific folder (which also changes for each run).
    The language I'm using is Visual Basic for Applications which is located in an Access form that controls the report production.
    Any suggestions, please?

    Got it - many thanks.

  • How can I set Yahoo mail as my default mail application on Mac Mail?

    I am trying to make Yahoo Mail (free version, not Yahoo mail Plus!) my default mail application. This would allow me to cick on any link sending e-mails and it will launch the yahoo mail application to send mail from there, obviously. For this to happen I need to open Mac "Mail > Preferences >" and choose "Default email reader" under the "General". I then choose the email application of my choice (Yahoo in my case). "GMail Notifier" for Google fans.
    I am not able to find a Yahoo application mail in my application folder or on the Internet, and frankly speaking, Yahoo mail support absolutely suck, and getting a hold of them is nearly impossible! There is a free applet out there called "Yahoomailer" that might do the job, but either I am installing it wrong since when I download and click on it nothing happens, or it does not work properly on my machine. So, I am turning to the community to get some help with this issue. All I need is to know if there is a Yahoo mail app out there that can be installed on MAC and shows up on my Mail > Preferences > Default email reader.
    Thank you,
    I am using MAC OS X 10.8.2

    My tools menu does not show "options" as a choice - any idea why? Thanks

    That is how Time Machine works.
    It is not going to keep files you delete from your computer forever.
    But you haven't stated how they are stored on the TC.
    If you copy files to the TC they can be stored long term.. or use another type of backup software.
    See Q3 here about storing data and TM on the TC.

  • Can i set up diff iTunes libraries for diff users on Mac

    My husband's Mac is now becoming the family computer.  He already has an extensive iTunes library.  I want to set up my own iTunes library, separate from his.  Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the speedy response.  Do you mean setting up a user account on the Mac itself? or an account within iTunes itself.  Currently we don't have separate user accounts set up on this Mac....

  • Can I set up a personal itunes account on my partners mac if he already has his own account on that computer?

    Can I open my own iTunes account using my partners mac, if he already has an itunes account of his own?

    Do you mean you want your own iTunes library on his computer?
    Yes.
    Easiest way is to create a new user login on the computer, then you will have your own content.
    An iTunes account is setup in the iTunes store to make purchases. It's just like a credit card or bank account.

  • Can you set up watch folders on PSE 12 on a mac?

    Do you have to do this manually when you add new photos? On Picasa there were watch folders and every time you added a photo to it, it would synch with the organizer... I wasn't thinking this was a downgrade when I purchased it.

    Watch folders is a Windows only feature.
