Can I specify a filename upon download of an mp3 podcast?

I would like to do this because many podcasts to which I subscribe have very generic names, such as "01 NPR_ 08-10-2007 Talk of the Natio.mp3". If I download multiple podcasts from same site, it is very hard to tell where to find which topic, so I would like to name the file something more descriptive at the point of initiating download.
Please respond via email to rmc001( at )jefferson.edu.

If you're using iTunes, no. If you're using another "podcatcher", you'd need to check the documentation for that app.

  • Can Safari specify a filetype for download to a folder other than default?

    Download folder gets clustered with all sorts of crap. Anyone know of a way to specify that a file with a certain extension (in this case .torrent) should be downloaded to a specific folder? I don't want to change all downloads to a different folder, I just want the ability to specify what downloads to where.

    No. I suppose you could create a folder action to do that and attach it to the folder, but that would take some knowledge of AppleScript.

  • I can't get my music to download to my MP3 Player

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file. If the file is on another computer, verify that you are connected to the network. If you typed a path, verify that it is correct. If the problem persists, the server might not be available
    Every time I try to put music on my MP3 Player some gets on it and the rest have this error message. I have been messing with it for weeks and I can't figure it out. I am about to just throw away my computer!!!!!!!!

    Please help. I have an mp3 player and cannot figure out how to download music in it. I created a file in Spotify, media player & iTunes. How do I get the mp3 out of properties? thanks

    Have you consulted the User Manual for the MP3 Player or contacted the Technical Support of the MP3 Player manufacturer?
    The MP3 Player User Manual should have step-by-step instructions on how to do this with their hardware.
    This is not a Windows related problem.  This is your MP3 player's problem and you need to contact the manufacturer of your MP3 player if you are unable to get it to function as intended.  The manufacturer of the MP3 player has sole responsibility
    for support of their product, not Microsoft!

  • Can I specify the location where iTunes places ripped mp3's?

    I would like to use iTunes to rip my CD's.
    However:
    1. I keep my music at a different location (directory tree arranged by genre, artist, albums etc) than the iTunes library. I manage the music library myself.
    2. I edit the MP3 tags outside of iTunes (using MP3TAG software).
    So, can I
    1. tell iTunes the directory where to place the ripped mp3's and
    2. prevent iTunes from automatically integrating the rips into its library. I will import the mp3's into iTunes when I an good and ready.

    Not really. iTunes places rips at *<iTunes Media Folder>\(Music\)<Album Artist|Artist>\<Album>\## <Track>.<ext>*. You can change the location of your *<iTunes Media Folder>* but that's it. The optional Music\ bit depends on whether you're using the new *iTunes Media Organsiation*.
    2. prevent iTunes from automatically integrating the rips into its library. I will import the mp3's into iTunes when I an good and ready.
    Nope. iTunes add files to the library as part of any import, rip or play operattion.
    For what it's worth I keep my library organised manually, but why use MP3Tag to edit data that can just as easily be editied inside iTunes? After I rip an album or purchase from iTunes/Amazon I use iTunes to amend the details so that the album will be properly organised (see tips at http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp) and then use MediaMonkey to reorganise the files & folders to my style. I then simply delete & reimport the album.

  • How do I set Safari to prompt me to choose a filename when downloading?

    I can't figure this out at all. How do I set Safari to give me a dialog box in which I can choose my own filename when downloadiing a file? Right now, as soon as I click "download linked file" it just puts the files straight on my desktop with whatever filename was assigned to it.
    This will help me identify files as I often download files saved with numerical names.

  • "Software Update" crashes upon download

    Last week I was given a new Mac mini as a gift; I upgraded the memory to 2G; did Target Disk transfer from my old G4, then started using it (didn't use it before the memory or the transfer).
    Software Update crashes at the point when the download has just started, every time, even with individual small downloads. Other symptoms: Safari crashes upon start-up, any Widgets that look up info crash when they go get data. Firefox works but crashes accessing some video, same with Explorer.
    I have manually downloaded and upgraded to OSX 10.4.9. System can't recognize/mount the .dng download file to upgrade to 10.4.10 (I manually downloaded the Combo Intel). Java is 10.4.2, but when I try to install Java 10.4 Release 5, it tells me to upgrade to the previous version first (which is already installed).
    I suspect this is a Java and downloading glitch. Does Software Update rely on Java? Any ideas? I've searched the message boards for this problem, but haven't found anyone else with this problem.
    Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Thank you for your reply. I used the Setup Assistant to migrate from my G4.
    That's probably the cause of your issues. Apparently, the Setup Assitant will sometimes migrate (PowerPC-specific) system files over to Intel-based Macs (causing many odd problems), so using it to migrate from a PPC to an Intel Mac isn't recommended.
    Unfortunately, you will have to re-install Mac OS X to solve your issues (trying to figure out which specific files are causing the issues will probably be too long, with little chance of success); I don't know whether an Archive & Install is enough to fix this, but perhaps someone else knows? Otherwise you could ask in the Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger > Installation & Setup forum. If you need to do an Erase & Install, you will lose all data on your hard drive, so you'll need to create a backup of all your user files first.

  • Pdf files will not open upon downloading

    I download a lot of pdf docs for work and want them to open automatically upon download so I can screen them.  Since upgrading to Safari 5.1, when I download files (which has gotten much more cumbersome) they do not automatically open upon download.  Yes, I DO have the "open safe files after downloading" option checked in Preferences.  Any other thoughts?  A solution would be most helpful.  (If anyone has a solution to how I can automatically download files as easily as in prior versions, that would be greatly appreciated also.)

  • In Journal can i specify the Foreign currency  and local currency amount?

    In Journal Entry can i specify the Foreign currency amount and local currency amount?
    I tried the following code it is working fine using DIAPI.
    Here the Local currency and the System currency is SGD. And the Journal is for USD.
    oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 120.10
    oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 0
    oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
    oJnl.Lines.Debit = 120.10
    oJnl.Lines.Credit = 0
    oJnl.Lines.Add()
    oJnl.Lines.FCDebit = 0
    oJnl.Lines.FCCredit = 120.10
    oJnl.Lines.FCCurrency = "USD"
    oJnl.Lines.Debit = 0
    oJnl.Lines.Credit = 120.10
    oJnl.Add()
    But, the above way of doing is not working if i pass this Journal through B1.
    B1 is not allowing to change the local currency amount, Local currency amount is automatically calculated based on the FC amount and the Exchange rate.
    So Can i use the DIAPI to do this? is this right to do?

    Solved.
    In Journal Entry window, please kindly go to Form Settings/Document/
    Table tab page/ Convert Amounts According to Rate upon Exit:
    Clear the checkboxes 'From LC Field' & 'From FC Field', then the Local
    currency amount will not be automatically calculated based on the FC
    amount and the Exchange rate.

  • 7-Zip 'system cannot find the file specified' not letting me download?

    I'm about to throw my laptop to the other side of the room, run up to it and beat it with a baseball bat.
    I had to reset my system because I got a virus earlier[completely annoying] and I tried re-downloading Firefox through IE.
    First off, IE is complete cr*p.
    Second, I've gone to a lot of forums and pages trying to solve this issue.
    I keep getting this when I try to download. It hits a point and then:
    "7-zip: The system cannot find the file specified"
    and then "Your download was interrupted"
    I'm running Windows 8 on an Asus laptop.
    Please help me solve this or I'm going to do something drastic.
    I can't live with Internet Explorer as my main browser. I just can't.
    Thank you.

    I wonder if you've tried downloading from Mozilla's server.
    *ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/29.0.1/win32/
    Simply select your locale (en-US is default English) and download the "Firefox Setup 29.0.1.exe". Errors like this are generally solved by downloading from a different place. I don't have a Windows PC to test out if the files are okay.

  • How can I specify...

    How can I specify an exact location for a data file? The program that reads the file has this as a constructor:
    public VocabularyWordRW (String fileName) {
    fname = fileName;
    list = null;
    Whenever I call new VocabularyWordRW ("data1"); (which is the name of the file). I get a "File Not Found"
    message. It usually works on a Unix machine as long as I'm running it from the directory it's in.
    I tried putting the file in both c:\ and c:\englishDrill, which is the location of the program, but it still didn't work.
    Thanks for your help.
    -Chris

    The reason you need to use two backslashes, for exampe "C:\\blah\\datafile", is that the backslash character is a special escape character in Java - you use it to specify special characters. For example "\n" in a string in your source code means the newline character.

  • Can anyone recommend an app for downloading bank statements (.csv/.qif) directly on to my iPad

    Can anyone recommend an app for downloading bank statements (.csv/.qif) directly on to my iPad that will allow me to analyse my money flow....no account management needed. I just need something v simple that can take my statement and produce graphs etc....thanks

    1, Photos are stored within your computer's iTunes, you just use iTunes as a means for trasnferring them to the iPad. Connect your iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you want more control over the photos that you copy to the iPad (e.g. the ability to delete them directly on the iPad, re-order them etc) then you could consider a third-party photo-management app instead of the built-in Photos app e.g. Photo Manager Pro
    2, options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents and Numbers for Excel spreadsheets.  And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
    3, You first need an app on the iPad that supports the type of file that you want to copy to it - the iPad doesn't have a file system like a 'normal' computer, everything has to be associated with an app. As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

    Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
    *'''Windows/Mac''': Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
    *'''Linux''': Run ''firefox -safe-mode'' in the Terminal/Konsole
    If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.
    you can also check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file

    How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
    A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD.  However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
    How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
    Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive.  Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items.  Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
    Press RETURN.
    To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
    The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
    Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
    Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
    Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
    Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
    Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
    /Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
    Click on the  "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
    The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
    D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
    1.          In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
    2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
    2b.          or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
    3.          In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
    4.          On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
    5.          Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
              20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
    6.          Click “close”. Go to step 7.
    Extract or Install........
    7.          In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
    8.          If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
    9.          In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
    10.          If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
    11.          Type in your password, click “OK”
    Pacifist will begin to extract files.
    12.          In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
    Notes:          Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
    Stop
    Leave original alone
    Update .....
    Default selection
    Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages)

  • Can we delete AUX filename

    Hi ,
    My database version is 11.2.0.3 with asm.
    when i backup the controlfile to trace , i see below entry. Whatever the path i see "CRMPRFS1_DG/crmprfs1/datafile/mig101_stg", is referring to old server disk group. Recently we moved the database to new hardward and it does not have CRMPRFS1_DG diskgroup.

    how can is set AUX filename to the new path, that exist on the server?
    is there any way to delete or disable AUX filename from the database ? and is is safe to delete?
    Please advice .
    thanks

    I could be wrong, but you may need to correct or check your asm diskgroups.
    Here is what I have just checked.......
    Looking at the sys.dbms_backup_restore package, but specifially the setdatafileaux spec.....it gets the datafile name from v$datafile
    ******************** below from othe dbms_backup_restore procedure ***********************
    PROCEDURE setDatafileAux( dfnumber IN binary_integer
    ,fname IN varchar2 DEFAULT NULL);
    -- setDbfileAux sets auxilary filename.
    -- Input parameters:
    -- dfnumber
    -- Data file number of a file to alter. This refers to the file that
    -- is currently accessible via SQL commands.
    -- fname
    -- Name of the file to be set as auxfilename.
    ie
    SQL> select file#,name from v$datafile where file#=28
    FILE# NAME
    28 +DATA/edwdb10q/datafile/ils_index.3298.765548765                               
    1 row selected.
    You might want to login to your asm instance and check the status of your diskgroups you can also check v$asm_diskgroup to ensure they match

  • Mail fails to erase messages on POP server upon download

    My mail (ie tiget mail) is set to delete messages immedaitely upon downloading them from the POP server. Yet, when I go into the web interface from my provider, I can see that the messages are still there, read, but not deleted.
    This started about 2 weeks ago, wihtout any changes in my set up.
    Any ideas ?
    Using latest OS update on Powerbook G4. Service provider is afmu.com.

    I did try Thunderbird at your suggestions.
    -1- Thunderbird DOES clean up the mailbox on the server after downloading the messages form the server, so it looks like we have some Apple mail problem indeed.
    -2- I tried to install T bird properly, and Thunderbird was unable to import / find the settings and mailboxes from Apple mail ( had to create the accounts form scratch) . Does this mean some sort of setting file for apple mail is corrupted on not in the right location ? Which settings file(s) does mail use and where do they live ?
    -3- unfortunately, I can not stay with Thunderbird as I use Spamsieve as a junk filter and they do not support Thunderbird..
