Change default upload file destination?

When I upload photo files from a camera card, LR automatically comes up with a default file location under "My Pictures" (Windows XP). I file all my photos on an E: drive and it takes a bunch of mouse clicks to get there. Is there any way to change the LR default destination drive?

This may be OS related. On my Mac OS X 10.4.9, the "sticky" setting is saved between sessions. I just looked.
Now, I wasn't importing from a card. Just deleting and re-importing from a hard drive. But my experience as near as I can recall is that the changed setting for destination is "remembered" from one import to another.

Change default pdf file name

Hi,all
How can I change a default pdf file name from unknown.pdf to something else?
Regards,
Michael
Edited by: Michael Beilin on Feb 6, 2008 9:47 AM

HI Michael,
Yes you can do that,
Just do something like
     IWDAttributeInfo attInfo = wdContext.currentContextElement().node().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("PdfSource");
     ISimpleTypeModifiable type = attInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
     IWDModifiableBinaryType binaryType = (IWDModifiableBinaryType) type;
     binaryType.setFileName("TravelRequest.pdf"); // Set file name
     binaryType.setMimeType(WDWebResourceType.PDF); // set the mime type
for example in the doInit() before providing the file for download

Change default upload folder

When uploading files (Email attachments etc), the default folder in the Open dialog is Desktop.
How can I set a different default folder?
Thank you.

Desktop Is Not The Default Upload Folder In Your Firefox, If You Are Seeing The Desktop Folder While While Trying To Upload Something it just means that, The Last file Upload is From The desktop. :)

To change default backup file permission for dsconf

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible and ADVISABLE to change the default backup file permission for dsconf util. We're having two OS users, once which runs the script, and other which runs the dsconf. We're not allowed to schedule crontab from the second user profile. Hence, the user which runs the script will not be able to purge the old backup files as part of the backup process.
-rw------- 1 tty gis 32M Dec 15 22:00 usersConfig-15-12-11.ldif
Any thoughts if anyone has come across such issue.
Thanks, JPrince

So if I understand correctly, there is one user which creates the backups, and can run cron scripts. A second user runs some script on the backup, but doesn't have permissions to remove the backup once the script finishes.
Changing the permissions on the file itself is not enough, you have to have write permission on the directory which contains it as well. This doesn't sound (to me) like something you really want to do.
What I would suggest thinking about is having directory or file somewhere that both users can read/write.
When the script finishes processing, write the name of the backup into that file (or create an empty file in the directory with the same name as the backup).
Run a cron script from the first user (the one that creates the backups) which checks for names of processed files. If it finds any, it removes those backups, and the names from the file/directory.

Change default choose file folder

When I need to select a file or files from my computer, is there any way to modify the default select from location? Example, Uploading a picture on Facebook.

I think it's using the latest folder you did download to. At least it did when I tested on both FB and G+.
You can change that folder by downloading something.

Change default save file type to gif

I've seen people submit some solutions but it requires changing codes of the files.... is there a simpler way to do it? I don't understand why it's saving as a jpg file... the older versions used gif as the default for save as web...

That is odd. What version of Ps are you using? Both CS6 and CC 2014 hold the last used format (GIF) for me.. First, try holding Alt (Win) or Opt (Mac) with Save For Web open - the "cancel" will become a "reset" button. Now try again. Also, when you press Alt/Opt you should see the "done" will become a "remember."

Changing default open file location

Hi all,
In Outlook 2010, is there anyway to change the default folder that is opened by explorer when you want to open any pst files?
I have tried the registry changes listed in other forums but this only changes the default save location. I have managed to change the default open location for Word, Excel etc but not Outlook.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
Do you mean you want to change the default location when you click File > Open > Open Outlook Data File?
We can achieve this goal by modifying the registry, I managed to do this in my environment. Please follow the steps below:
Note: Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. For added protection,
back up the registry before you modify it.
Locate the registry path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook
Add the ForcePSTPath registry value:
Value name: ForcePSTPath
Value type: REG_EXPAND_SZ
Value: path to your storage folder
Restart your Outlook to check the result.

Version Cue CS3 Change Default Local File Location

Hi All
I've done a bit of searching around and can't find an answer to this.
We have a bit of a Hybrid network which involves roaming profiles / TS profiles and all manner of stuff I have not yet found. The upshot of this is that profile size affects all manner of things.
Vesion Cue CS3 places local files into your user folders (and thereore your profile) by default.
Is there a way to change the default location of these files? I dont need them on a network share, the local disc is fine but just not in 'my documents'.
I am aware I can do it on a project by project basis, but as I deal in hundreds of projects this is impractical. That is to say I need to have the local files end up in the right place when I first sync.
Thanks Very Much for your help
Colin

I'm sorry Curt,
I don't understand your point.
CS3 does, in fact have Version Cue, and does put files in certain places. So I don't follow what you are getting at.

Change default save files directory

I'm trying to switch where files are saved on my computer but Firefox just ignores the new directory and keeps saving in the same place instead of what's set in options/downloads/savefilesto. How can I make it so that my downloads go in a specific folder?

ccau, You wrote, <br> ''I set the download location to e.g. 'e:\temp\' (or anywhere else with at least one non-root path component), the location is honored. If I use e.g. 'd:\', 'e:\' etc, it is ignored.''
Mozilla developers are working on the bug introduced in Firefox 27 that prevents selecting a "root" directory as the download folder (you can vote for the bug to keep track of the progress)
*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=958899 Bug 958899] - Under Windows, cannot use a root directory as the destination for downloading

Change upload file name with com.oreilly.servlet.MultipartRequest to handle the file upload

1. when use com.oreilly.servlet.MultipartRequest to handle the file upload, can I change the upload file name .
2. how com.oreilly.servlet.MultipartReques handle file upload? do it change to byte ?
what different? if I use the following method?
   File uploadedFile = (File) mp.getFile("filename");
               FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(filename);
                byte[] uploadedFileBuf = new byte[(int) uploadedFile.length()];
               fos.write(data);
             fos.close();

My questions are
1) when use oreilly package to do file upload , it looks like i line of code is enough to store the upload file in the
file direction.
MultipartRequest multi =
        new MultipartRequest(request, dirName, 10*1024*1024); // 10MB
why some example still use FileOutputStream?
outs = new FileOutputStream(UPLOADDIR+fileName);
    filePart.writeTo(outs);
   outs.flush();
outs.close();
2) can I rename the file name when I use oreilly package?

Change default settings; freeze trackheader and 'save as '-destination ?

How can I change the default setting so I have the freeze botton /trackheader visual in the arange-window every time I create a new track ? And how can I change the default ' save as '- destination?
Message was edited by: Ron H.

Perhaps it would have been clearer if I had just said "No".
You can't define a default 'Save' folder for Logic.
But in trying to be helpful, I suggested some workarounds.
My apologies if you mistook my helpfulness for prevarication.
As I said before, Logic will always try to save a Project in the same location that the Project was in when it was opened.
If you did not open a Project, but used a Template, then Logic will Save to the last Location it "knew" about (the last one it remembers, if you like).
For files other than Projects, it will behave the same way — remembering the last significant folder.
This is, in fact, the way that most Applications behave in OS X.
+"And it was just such simple question. You prob oversaw that I ment 'at starting up logic'. The answers you gave are for having logic on and changing then."+
The simple answer is "no". The workaround answers I gave are for all situations, whether Logic has already been running, or whether it has only just launched.
I hope that's clearer now, & that you will be able to find a working method that you like.

When I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure, but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm

Hi
I have an uploading problem to the server. The problem is when I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure,
but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm, or three stages1.htm.
My Localroot folder is C:\Gods Plan Web\
The site map layout is C:\Gods Plan Web\Index.htm
The folder for the remote site is /public_html/
Should the local root folder mirror the remote site, i.e./public_html/
if this is so, what should I put into the
(a) Local Root Folder box?
(b) site map layout box?
The FTP is performing well other than changing the intended file.

You should be uploading only the contents of your local root to the public_html folder (remote root).
The index.html you use as your site's home page needs to be in your site root. If you look at your Files window in DW, you should have something like the following...
Site - Whatever you named your site
     index.html
     images
     pages
          page1.html
          page2.html
If you have any folder between Site - and the index.html page, like...
Site - Whatever you named your site
     mywebsite
          index.html
It will upload to the public_html while still in that folder, so to find your page online, you would need to type something like...
www.mydomain.com/mywebsite
public_html should NOT appear within your local files and if it existed there, would cause a redundancy if uploaded. You would need to type www.yourdomain.com/public_html to see the uploaded pages.
If you could post a screen shot of your expanded Files window while connected to the server (just connect and click the Expand button in Files, don't drill down into any of the directories), we may be able to see the issue.

How to change the default "Safe" files in Safari?

I would really appreciate if anybody could teach me how to change the default "Safe" files using AppleScripts, Folder Actions or .plist files. I really would like to have some files to open automatically after download, specially .pps files, and safari doesn't recognize such files as "safe". I tried to find out reading the help files but got lost.
I posted a reply in an old topic for somebody who seemed to know, but it was not related to that topic, so I decided to open a new one.
I'll be gratefull for any help. Thanks.

Hi MDRC,
Have a read of [this topic|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1237961] to see if that helps.
