Convert symlink to directory

Hi,
I have recently installed an additional SSD to my iMac 2011. I had OSX 10.8.2 installed on the (spinning) HD. I then installed 10.8.2 onto SSD. To make life easy at first I have weirdly managed to symlink the SSD/Users/useraccount to the HD/Users/useraccount.
Now I would like to use the HD as a usual data disk and remove the /Users/useraccount root nodes in its tree. Also, I would like only the "Documents" directory in a regular SSD/Users/useraccount to symlink to the data on the HD. Unfortunately I cannot because SSD/Users/useraccount is just a symlink, it does not contain any directories of its own. Can I convert that SSD/Users/useraccount back (from a symlink) to a normal directory? I cannot remove it because it is the useraccount I have installed the OSX out of. Thanks.
Regards.
Pierre

Hi Linc,
Back up is done as the SSD/Users/useraccount, user1 say, links to the HD which can be considered as just containing data. What do you mean to move link out of the way? If I log under user1 then it is hard to move it out as I am actively using that user1 link. What do you mean by home folder?
To summarize, I installed osx on SSD using user1. So, Users/user1 was created. Then I linked SSD/Users/user1 to the old user1 on HD. I realized too late that it was not proper. Now I want to revert back SSD/Users/user1 to a normal account and link its Document folder onto the Document folder on HD. It seems that logging as another admin account, user2 say, and changing the name of user1 into user1.bak and creating a user1 directory again, does not do the trick as logging as user1 again make the system use the user1.bak link still.

  • Finding the UNC path of a symlink'ed directory

    Hi Scripting Guys,
    I have multiple powershell scripts which access data files on a remote networked machine working through a symlink on the local machine. This way the remote fiile location isn't coded in the scripts, and if we decide to change the location of the data then
    only the symlink needs to be recreated. So, for example, "c:\my_scripting\my_symlink\" in fact takes you to "\\remote_machine\my_data\"
    In a script I am working on now, I have a need to be able to retrieve the UNC path of the remote data directory, in other words - where is my_symlink pointing to?
    Can you help me with this please?
    Cheers,
    Colin

    Here's my solution so far (assuming only one reparse point in the local starting directory):
    # get the remote path associated with my_symlink
    [string] $uncPath = &cmd /C dir /AL *
    $uncPath = $uncPath.Split("[`[`]]")[1]
    # get the logical disk object
    $networkDrive = $uncPath.SubString(0,2)
    $logicalDisk = Gwmi Win32_LogicalDisk -filter "DriveType = 4 AND DeviceID = '$networkDrive'"
    # replace the network drive letter with provider name
    $uncPath = $uncPath.Replace($networkDrive, $logicalDisk.ProviderName)

    In the llb manager, go up one folder, then select the llb file. Now you can convert it to a folder.

  • Deleting Documents folder and replacing with symlink - Downsides?

    Background:
    I have a new iMac with the dual internal drive option (SSD + HDD) running Lion. I am trying to set up the system to have the OS and applications on the SSD with documents and media on the HDD. In researching my options I found three paths often suggested:
    1. Create folders in the HDD and save your documents there + point applications like iTunes and iPhoto to the HDD for storage.
    2. Move your entire home folder to the HDD.
    3. Replace certain folders of your home folder with symbolic links that point to the actual folders in the HDD (i.e., Documents, Downloads, Movies, Pictures, Public) + leave certain folders in the SDD (i.e., Library, Desktop, Music) + point certain applications to the HDD for storage.
    After weighing the pros and cons of the options, I plan on using option number 3. Option 1 required the least "advanced" work, but had the downside of needing to change preferences in all my programs that default to folders like Downloads to the HDD as well as the good chance that I or others in my family would forget to navigate to the HDD to save documents. Option 2, moving the entire home folder seemed simple after reading the steps, but came with two main downsides: 1) warnings not being able to boot should the OS stop recognizing to look to the HDD for the user account and messing up the library and 2) not gaining the performance boost of keeping certain things on the SSD (e.g., the library file of iTunes and Aperture, files for current active projects kept on the Desktop).
    That left me with Option 3, the one with the most setup work, but hopefully a good balance of later ease and performance.
    Question:
    In order to set up Option 3, my understanding is that I need to create a new folder in the HDD, delete the usual folder in the user home folder, and then create a symlink that lives in the user home folder so programs reference it and seemlessly access the folder in the HDD.
    Does this really work without any problems? In order to delete folders like Documents and Downloads, you need to ignore warnings that say the folder "can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by Mac OS X" and then use terminal commands to do so.
    Of course, I plan to replace these folders with symlinks, so I think all should be fine and applications will just see the newly created folder without a hitch. I just want to be sure.
    Here are some links to articles outlining the method:

    Thanks for the help!

    Just a note... I've noticed a problem in some sandbox apps when trying to save a file to the symlinked Documents directory.. depending on how the app saves the file, it might throw an error.

  • Convert PDFs to Word, RTF, spreadsheets or other formats

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7eeb.w .html

    How do I convert an entire directory of PDFs to a text format? I would prefer not to have to do them one by one.

  • Does the file format differ when you Publish locally to hard drive vs. to the Connect Pro server?

    I notice that when I publish locally to my hard drive to review a set of slides, I see a folder full of files. If I click on index.htm within the folder, I can launch the slides.
    When I publish to the Adobe Connect Pro server, I merely see a url for the link to the course.
    I'm not sure what this url link represents (as far as the file format is concerned):
    Has the presentation been converted to different file format than what is published on my local drive? If so, what format is it in?
    If  the presentation has not been converted, does the directory structured published to my local drive get replicated on the Adobe Connect Pro server, and the url is merely a link to the "starting file " within that folder (say, index.htm)?

    The published output does not differ between publishing locally and publishing to Connect. The URL on the Connect server does, ultimately, point to the Index.htm or viewer.swf file.

  • Slow processing and getting opening errors/warnings

    I've modified the PDF Binder sample to get a plugin that would open PDF's and Tif files, and save them as PDF/A-1b (code below).
    It's working. The problem: it's processing too slow (compared with the Actions batch processing)... and I've been getting warnings/and errors about "The imput file is corrupt or of an unknown/unsupported type" type. This is stopping my batch process until I click OK, and the it continues.
    I am trying to process a few thousand of tif files now. I tried first to use the Batch processing capability built in the Acrobat X... an it works, but only with the first 255 documents in the folder... then gives an "insufficient disk space" message for the rest of the files in the directory.
    So, 2 questions: Does anyone knows why it is so slow processing the tiff files and... how I can make my code "silent" so it does not wait for the OK after the message??
    Thanks in advance.

        Implementation
    /**    This sample implements a method to convert multiple files into PDF
      and bind the PDFs into one PDF file .
        This sample shows developers how to grammatically implement To-PDF file
      converson functionality.  Basically, the code uses AVConversionToPDFHandler
      to convert files to PDF and PDDocInsertPages()to combine PDF files.
      This plug-in is designed to run from a menu item, and by setting bEcho = false
      it may be run without any graphics user interface on the screen. Therefore, it 
      can be executed from other programs such as C IAC, VB IAC, and JavaScript
      to meet enterprise workflow needs.
        How to run it :
        - This sample adds a menu item "PDF Binder" under the Acrobat SDK submenu. Two ways to
        execute it: 1) click the menu item to run the program using a fixed file location
        hard coded; 2) press the shift key and click the menu item to choose a folder where
        files to be converted are located.
        - Without folder selection, this original code is to convert and bind files in a
        directory    C\test\PDFBinder for Win, or a folder   MacHD:test:PDFBinder for Mac.
        You can copy the test files in the project's testfiles folder to the appropriate location 
        for testing. You may locate files to be converted in another directory/folder, and
        specify the location in the string variable PDFBinderFolder in the code.
        - When you have the files to be converted ready in the specified location,
        run Acrobat 6 menu Advanced->AcrobatSDK->PDF Binder to start the operation.  There are
        echo messages informing you of the operation start and end, but you can change and
        rebuild the code to turn off the display on screen.
        - An output file PDFBinderOutput.pdf in the same location is created
        when the program succeeds. A text log file  PDFBinderLog.txt in the same
        location records the process and results.
        -  You can set bEch = false in the code to turn off any display on the screen.
        This is necessary when you  call the menu function from within other programs
        of C IAC, VB IAC, JavaScript. 
        -  An optional file filter is used to pre-process the files. The filter only allows
        the files with predefined types to be processed. You can change the file type list
        as you wish. Using a filter may ensure a smooth automation process, since you can put
        only well-tested file types in the filter. To turn off the filter, you can set
        gPDFBinderFileFilter = "" or not to define USE_FILE_FILTER 
        - Note this is a sample only, developers need to make further improvement for
        their actual use. For example, you can set up a list of files to use the method for
        the conversion and binding. And you can add code to handle special file types.

    There are some options for various APIs to run "kinda silent" - but again, Acrobat is designed for INTERACTIVE use…so "completely silent" isn't really an option.
    As for speed – you'd need to be MUCH MORE specific about where your slow downs are.  Have you profiled?

  • Unicode (non-English) Classpath problem!

    Hi All,
    On WinXP I created a folder which name was in Japaness.
    When I run my applet from this folder
    the JRE (version 1.5) couldn't load the class from this folder,
    see the error message below:
    liveconnect: Invoking JS method: document

    Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Server\parent\??????\MyClass\class.class (The system cannot find the path specified)
         at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
    ..........It seems that it converted my japaness directory in name to ...\???????\... when loading.
    Is the JRE 1.5 supports the unicode for file/directory naming,
    if yes does it support the class/resource loading from those unicode directories?
    Please help to load class from an unicode directory in name.
    Many Thanks!

    I know only of a bug, where the jar file is not allowed to be unicode.
    However, might it be that a ".class" should be removed?
    Reread the error message.

    You can download from metalink. You will need a metalink account to do this.
    I've just downloaded the sample data from adci.
    It did install for me.

    Also, what hardware platform are you running on?

  • After LDAP failure rebuild I cannot turn on Wiki for group

    Our LDAP database died today so I converted the Open Directory Master to Standalone then back to an Open Directory Master and rebuilt our users and groups. No settings were changed in the Web section of the server. But now I cannot choose anything from WorkGroup Manager -> (Group) -> Basic -> Enable the following services for this group on: It only offers me "(None)" and not our site.
    I removed the site from the Web settings and made a new one, still the same behavior.
    I feel like I'm missing something obvious, can anyone point me in the right direction?
    OS X Server version 10.5.6

    Hi,
    If you rebuilt the LDAP and ensured the UIDs are the same for groups as before, it seems rebuilding the connection with web service is not complete.
    I have had to do the following after some upgrades:
    If you have your groups listed in the website under Web Services /Services for Groups then remove them, restart web service (or teams), reinstall the groups in the Services for Groups and again restart web service. Then Enable the services for each group in WGM.
    HTH,

  • Batch Resize, ppi & save as PNG

    Ok so I have been experimenting around with Photoshop cs6's Actions and creating my own, but I can't perfect them. I have a little file structure where I store textures and there are many sub folders and all my images are .JPEG.
    My question is:
    How do I create an action that will:
    Change all my JPEG images to PNG
    Resize all pictures to 2048x2048
    set ppi to 72
    and
    Retain file name and location within the folder structure.
    Thanks for any help!

    I prefer to do this type of batch processing work in IrfanView (faster, more consistent behaviour in my experience).
    http://www.irfanview.com/
    It's free, and very quick to convert images - much faster than Photoshop.
    1) File-->Batch Conversion/Rename, and change option to either "batch conversion" or "batch conversion - rename result files" (select the last option if you need the files to be automatically renamed)
    2) change output format to PNG (adjust option to your liking)
    3) check "Use advanced options"
    4) click the advanced button, and set one or both sides to 2048. Check resample function for better quality.
    5) set the new DPI value to 72 (bottom left).
    6) in the Misc section, check "create subfolders in destination folder".
    7) click OK
    8) you can change the name pattern, if you like. Depends on the first step.
    9) browse to the texture folder. Check "Include subdirectories" in the left column.
    10) navigate to the specific folder that contains all the subfolders. Click "Add All".
    11) change the output directory.
    12) Start the batch (click "start batch" button.
    All images are converted, and the directory structure is retained. You may have to browse in the folder structure until you are on the level you require.

  • Problem with Adobe convertor printer driver

    I'm having 2 separate issue with the Adobe converter printer driver.
    I'm trying to convert a chm file to PDF file with mixed results.
    1.  after the file is converted, it doesn't do a complete job of it.  it produces a pdf file with 68 pages, there was quite a few more pages it didn't include.
    2.the driver no longer  works.  I make the selection to convert to a directory, after conversion, I find that the directory is empty.

    that was supposed to be "I make the selection to convert the file to a directory"
    the converted file was supposed to appear in a directory.
    select adobe pdf converter
    select print
    save pdf file as window appear
    directory is selected
    select save

  • Migration forms 4.5 to 6.0

    We have an application runing in character mode, we going to migrate FORMS from 4.5 to 6.0. I want to know if someone had any kind of troubles in this migration and how solved that trouble.

    I did this converting, in '99 year, long time ago
    I recommended you the Developer version 1.5 or 2.1, for this convertion. in the directory BIN exists a file named f60cmp32.exe (or f60comp32.exe some like this...if not exists try f60run32.exe)
    this program show you a window of parameters of compilation where put the name of .inp and the name of new file (.fmx), userid & pass, type (forms), the access (in database or .inp) and ready...
    all the code translate good, only modify the canvases defaut.
    I wish the best
