Changing multiple file extension from .tpm2 to .mp3

After restoring my itunes library from being erased some of the songs are unable to be read by itunes because they have the extension '.tmp2' after the '.mp3'. How would I go about change all of the file extensions at once opposed to one at a time?

Try Renamer4Mac or BatchRename'em - VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Both freeware.

Can i change the file extension from .html to .cfm in Muse?

Can I change the file extension from .html to .cfm in Muse? Then I could use my old file names.

Muse only supports .html as a page extension at this time.

Is it possible to batch change multiple file extensions

Is there a way to batch change file extensions? I have more than 150 files on which I need to change the extension and it's a bit of a pain to do each one separately and then have to confirm it.
Thanks!

This is where the terminal can be your friend. Open up terminal and change to the folder in question
To do this, assuming the folder is called 'myfiles' and is on your desktop:
cd ~/Desktop/myfiles
(Or you could type cd then drag the folder to the terminal window to save typing)
Then the command below will rename *.txt to *.rtf (change the two occurrences of 'txt' and the one 'rtf' as appropriate:
for f in *.txt; do base=`basename $f .txt`; mv $f $base.rtf; done

Changing multiple file extensions

Hi,
My friend has a problem because he has rendered some images from Maya with the extension like this: scene.tiff.1 .... ect all the way to 2500.
Now when trying to read the files it doesn't work as the extension is in the wrong place. Does anyone know of a way to change all the files so that the new extension is .tiff?
Thank You

If Name Mangler doesn't do the job (it's "set extension" function might do the job) another option might be the freeware NameChanger. There might be several ways to accomplish this, but one way would be to use the "remove characters" function and select the appropriate number of characters for each block, e.g. "remove" "from end" "1" for those files with number 1 to 9 at the end, "remove" "from end" "2" for 10 to 99, "remove" "from end" "3" for 100 to 999, and "remove" "from end" "4" for 1000 to 2500.
Not as straightforward as just changing the extension, but if Name Mangler won't correctly recognize the extension with the numbers appended, NameChanger as above might do the trick.
Hope this helps.

Changing Movie File Extensions

I have a bunch of .avi (home videos) that I want to upload into my iTunes Library. Using handbrake, this would take weeks. Why can't I simply change the file extension from .avi to .m4v or .mp4 and drag it into iTunes. I've tried this once but iTunes isn't recognizing it. Is my only option the long, tedious one?
Thanks!

AVI files are a completely different form of file to, for example, .mp4. To change from one to the other you have to re-code the entire file. Changing the extension has no effect on the file - its only function is to tell the Finder what program to use to open it. An AVI file with an .mp4 extension is still an AVI file and iTunes won't play it.

Changing the file extension in Oracle Spool

Change multiple files name at once

Hi
I would like to know if someone knows how to change multiple files name in mac. I need to name hundreds of files name, and dont want to do it one by one ... Example: Change from: Doc 1, Doc 2, Doc3 ...to: 2010Summer1; 2010Summer2,etc...
Thanks in advance for any help,
Joao

Make an Automator workflow that changes the name. You would Replace text of "Doc" with "2010Summer". When you open Automator, choose Workflow. Drag in a Get Selected Finder Items and then drag in a Rename Finder Items. Select the "Replace Text" option. Fill in the Details, select the files in the Finder, and then run the workflow.
There are also some third-party file renamers. Check MacUpdate or VersionTracker. I don't know if there are any free ones.

Just updated to itunes 12.1.0.71 - big problem - can no longer access the legacy "Get Info" where you could change multiple files, easily add artwork, add album name for TV show, and much more. In previous iTunes 12 you'd right click

Just updated to itunes 12.1.0.71 - big problem - can no longer access the legacy "Get Info" where you could change multiple files, easily add artwork, add album name for TV show, and much more. In previous iTunes 12 you'd right click and hold shift key and be able to get to it. Anyone figured this out?

The "legacy" metadata editors, for which there was a "back door" in iTunes 12.0, have gone from 12.1. However, the revised editors in 12.1 provide access to (almost) all the metadata elements that were available in iTunes 11, albeit in a different layout and with some additional constraints based on media kind. Some users have / will have an issue with the statement that "Get Info has been completely redesigned in iTunes 12 to focus your attention only on what’s necessary for the selected item" since that removes some metadata elements that people may have been using in creative ways. iTunes 12.1 basically gives you access to the fields that Apple think are necessary ... . Some of the things that have been excluded by this rule:
track and disc number fields for video media kinds
show and episode fields for music
description tab for audiobooks made up of more than one file
Obviously the first two examples can be regarded as "overloading" the metadata elements - i.e., using them in ways that the designers didn't intend - but given that some users do find valid cases for this it's a shame that they've been deprecated in the new UI. There are couple of workarounds:
in songs view (or any of the other columnar views), you can still select any fields to display, independent of media kind, and these can be edited (though only one at a time) by double-clicking in the relevant "cell"
you can (temporarily) change the media kind of an item (or group of items) to get access to metadata elements that would otherwise be inaccessible.
It may be worth submitting an issue via https://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html - I can't see it as a huge development task to have a user preference to switch between "show all fields" and "filter fields based on media kind".
One other oddity/irritation is that some of the tabs don't, by default, show all the available fields - you need to scroll up/down to access them or to expand the window by dragging on one of its corners. Fortunately, the latter seems to be persistent - once you've done this to make all the fields visible the editor will open at the same (larger) size when opened again.

I uploaded and edited my RAW image, clicked 'Save As', and changed the file type from .psed to .jpg.

I edited my raw image in Photoshop CS6, selected 'Save As', and changed the file type from .psed to .jpg. I also selected 12 and large file when the window popped up, concluding my 'saving as'. My computer does not recognize the file type and won't open them. Can someone help me? Thanks!

When naming files, stick to the letters of the ENGLISH alphabet, numbers and underscores. Do not use illegal characters like apostrophes, commas, asterisks, ampersands, hatch or pound signs, diacritics or accented characters, slashes, etc.
While the period (dot) is not an illegal character per se, your file names should have only one period and that should always be followed by the file type extension.

Same file name at Target with change in file extension

Hi,
I am working on File to File scenario. I need to create target file name similar to the source file name. This can be achieved by using ASMA. But my requirement is to change the file extension for the target file.
For example:
Source File u2013 InvoiceNotification.txtu2026.Then target file should create as
Target File - InvoiceNotification.csv
This can be achieved by using OS Command unix script in the receiver communication channel.
Is there any better way of doing this..say something like Dynamic Configuration or Variable substitution?
Thank you.

Hi Achuth,
I think you are doing content conversion at the receiver side. Go ahead with ASMA, get the file name.
DynamicConfigurationconf = (DynamicConfiguration)container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKeyFileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, a);
return "";
In the receiver file adapter, keep the extension as .CSV. That's enough.
Else you can follow as said by Abhishek Salvi. Either way you can achieve the requirement.
Thanks,

Pse 7 changes the file extensions, by using a -1 up to 6 times on a photo, how to stop this problem.

I cannot keep up with my photos, they somehow change the file extension by adding
a -1 over and over, how can I stop this process
to keep a single file extension?

I checked out the backup/sync, it is not turned on after checking. Also I do not have a second computer as a backup, I use an Esata drive of 1 TB.
I have a photo called Rose.jpg, later I try to open the file and it tell be its lost. I try to reconnect, no luck, then I manually try to find the file and its called Rose-1.jpg or up to Rose-1-1-1-1-1-1.jpg or Rose-1-1-1-1-1-1_edited.jpg. I do not understand what is taking place in my computer with my photos. I have about 17,000 photos and I am having a real problem.
Any help would be appreciated. sghmotorhome

Changing .dmg file extension doesn't work as expected

Hi everybody,
I wanted to change the file extension of an image of a floppy disk creating using Disk Uitility. The original extension is ".dmg". Changing this extension in the Finder window to ".flp" seems to work --- but only at first sight.
Looking at the directory using Terminal, the image file now has the extension of ".flp.dmg". This is creating a lot of problems, for instance when using VMWare Fusion which does not want to mount disk image files with an extension not equal to ".flp".
How to solve the problem?
Try renaming the file in the Terminal using the command "mv". This really changed the file name. Worked for me!
Question:
Is this a problem of the Finder? (or a feature I don't understand?)
Best Regards,
Matthias

In Finder, first ensure that Show Extension is selected in the Get Info window, then back in Finder, file.dmg can be manually altered to file.flp. A query will arise, "do you want to really change this to .flp?" will be asked and confirm that this is how you want it. Its new extension will remain visible.

thank you very much for your help=]

I am not sure what you mean, but once you make a project. Then go to the share menu and you can export the project to iDVD, itunes, mobileme, quicktime.
Share export quicktime movie will allow you to export to a variety of codecs. What specific export are you looking to share the movie in? What is the final source that the movie will be displayed?
