Copy file name and info from finder window

I need to get the file name and file size for lots of files in lots of folders into a text file or excel file. I have found the way to copy the file path into text edit, but can't figure out how to copy all the info in a file window. Is there a way to do this?

It's easily done with Terminal.
cd (drag folder into Terminal window, press return). Then:
ls -l > ~/Desktop/list.txt
A file called "list.txt" will appear on your Desktop, containing a list of files from the folder, along with their modification dates, file sizes, and ownership/permission info.

Copy File name and Date only from a Folder with SSIS

Hello all,
I need to create a package which will list the file names and the dates in a folder, these files are blank flat files. After extracting the file names from the file path i need to create a table which will have two columns Filename and
Date.We get about 1000 such files every month and we are looking to maintain them in a table.
Is this possible? Can someone point me in the right direction?
FM

Arthur , I actually figured it out. The For each container let me pass thru the file name, then I inserted the file name into my staging table. I created a FilePath variable and basically Did a sql task and
INSERT INTO MyTable
SELECT Filename = ?,
LoadDate = GetDate()
In my for each loop I added a *.*txt qualifier... I`ve tested and works well... Got what I needed.

Get file name and path from adf inputFile

Hi,
I use adf's inputFile component. I need to get the file name and filePath. Does anyone knows how to do that?
Thanks in advance

You may bind the value to an UploadedFile object and get the name from this object.
You may use a valueChangeListener backin bean method or a managed bean.
Here the code i just write for something similar. Note that i'm not able to test it because of a bug in 10.1.3.1 with inputFile and web.xml parameters. I still waiting for the patch.
public void uploadedFile(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) throws IOException,
Exception {
final int BUFFER = 2048;
byte data[] = new byte[BUFFER];
int currentByte;
String fileName;
UploadedFile uploadedFile =
(UploadedFile)valueChangeEvent.getNewValue();
if (uploadedFile != null) {
String mimeType = uploadedFile.getContentType();
if (mimeType == "application/x-zip-compressed") {
// get the uploaded file as a zip file
ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(uploadedFile.getFilename());
// verify the zip archive contains only one entry
if (zipFile.size() != 1) {
FacesContext context =
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ResourceBundle errorMessage =
ResourceBundle.getBundle(context.getApplication().getMessageBundle());
Exception ZipFileContentException =
new Exception(errorMessage.getString("error.fileUpload.zipFileContent.moreThanOneEntry").replace("{0}",
String.valueOf(zipFile.size())));
throw ZipFileContentException;
// get the entries in the zip file even it is only one

// Process each entry
while (zipFileEntries.hasMoreElements()) {

// which is nice if you want to test streams

I am trying the code below to get the file name and mime type from OAMessageFileUploadBean,

How Do I Copy File Names & Folders From A Hard Drive To A Word Document?

Hi Gang:
This may sound silly but I am having a herd time with the following - seemingly simple task.
I have data DVD-Rs with audio files organized into folders. Each folder contains audio files related to the folder name.
I would like to copy the file names and folders from a DVD-R and paste them into a MS Word file. I am just looking to get a listing of files as they appear on the DVD-Rs in their folders.
The problem is that when I copy and paste, the order changes (seemingly randomly) and the file names are no longer under the folder names. In fact, the whole thing looks to be really random.
Anybody know how to copy file/folder names from a hard drive or DVD-R to a word document and retain the file/folder structure?
Thanks!
LAHD

There is an even easier method with no Terminal magic required. In the Finder, select all the files you want the names of, press Command-C, switch to Word and press Command-V. Poof, your done.
If you view the DVD in List VIew, you can expand the folders you want the files for, then select all the files (and their folders if you want them too) and then do the Copy/Paste thing.

How to find ATL file name and timestamp of importing for existing DI code?

A tester is not sure about the version of the ATL code which was imported into his local repository. Is there anyway he can get the imported ATL file name and/or timestamp from the repository or a log file? I searched in both places but couldn't find any information. Did I miss something? This is DI 11.5.3.
Thanks,
Larry

I don't think the information about the source of how the object was created in repo is maintained anywhere, like this version of object was created from ATL or from Designer etc
but different versions of objects are stored in AL_LANG and its language in AL_LANGTEXT table, if you have not compacted the repo, you may get the last modified time from AL_ATTR table, try getting the data from these table and see if you get any info that is useful for you

I can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name

can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name. My original external has an error and needs to be reformatted but I dont want to lose this informations its my entire Itunes library.

Sounds like the source drive is formatted as case sensitive and the destination drive is not. The preferred format for OS X is case insensitive unless there is a compelling reason to go case sensitive.
Why can't you change the filename? Is it because the source drive is having problems? If so is this happening with only one or two or a few files? If so the best thing would be to copy those over individually and then rename them on the destination drive.
If it is more then you can do manually and you can't change the name on the source you will have to reformat the destination as case sensitive.
Btw this group is for discussion of the Support Communities itself, you;d do better posting to Lion group. I'll see if a host will move it.

I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo. It now shows in information, that the date is created and modified is different from the original digitized date. How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

File Name and File Content not gettinng passed from Proxy to Business Serv

Hi All ,
I have a requirement in OSB , where i need to pick the file from remote Source and FTP the files to Remote Target .Below are the steps which i did to achieve this.
1.Created a FTP Adapter in JDeveloper to Get the files from Source and a FTP Adpater to Put the files to Target.Inboth the adapters i have choose 'Shema is Opaque'
2.Imported the wsdl and jca file to OSB
3.Generated Proxy Service (PS ) and Business service (BS) out of Step 2
4.I edited the Message flow such a way that , the PS is routed to invoke the BS
Aslo i assigned $inbound/ctx:transport/ctx:request/tp:headers/jca:jca.file.FileName to a variable 'FileName' in PS
and in BS service i passed $outbound/ctx:transport/ctx:request/tp:headers/jca:jca.ftp.FileName = 'FileName'
When i tried to activate my session , the file that is getting written to the target has 0 byte.Also , the file name is also not getting passed from PS to BS
Can some one help me with the steps on how to use the Xpath , so as to pass the file name and file body from proxy servive to business service.
Thanks

I search multiple shares to find a common file name then create a single output file. I will be doing this search and file creation
for 5-10 different file names. If there is a better way .. certainly open for suggestions. It's working but having issue with
the cmd file for every file and folder I check. It puts this error out for each run of the process.
Error message in LOG file:
Get-ChildItem : Cannot find path 'F:\powershell\-SearchFor' because it does not exist.
Thanks.
I tried your code with little changes and saved in Temp folder.
My CMD file has the below code
PowerShell C:\Temp\Untitled1.ps1
It worked.

Display file name and remove error from log output

This script is working great from the GUI but when I call it from a cmd file from a job scheduler it throws out errors. I also want to display from is location the file name and it's byte count(ForEach($File in $Files)) so I can tell if any of the
files being combined where actually empty. It wants to search the current location from the sever not just-Locations parm..
Error message in LOG file:

exist.
It's trying to find file install.cmd from where script starts and all the -Locations(which is only the search parm)

Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)

Migrate an iTunes library from one computer to another
These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entireiTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one, with ratings, play counts, playlists etc. preserved. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd normally recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library and unlike copying with Windows Explorer the process can be resumed if it is interrupted and it will continue to the next item if there are any read/access errors.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See Make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

Getting Receive File Name and status of application from Biztalk database.

Hello all,
I want to retrieve Receive file name and status of application (started, partially started) in a stored procedure
querying Biztalk databases.
Please share if anybody have an Idea.
Thanks

Hi Nilesh,
Status of BizTalk application can be obtained using ExplorerOM API provided by product. It's Application class has a Status property that returns one of Not Applicable, Started, Stopped, Partially Started.
using Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM;
private string GetApplicationStatus(string applicationName)
BtsCatalogExplorer catalog = new BtsCatalogExplorer();
string status = "";
try
//connection string to BizTalk management database
catalog.ConnectionString = "SERVER=.;DATABASE=BizTalkMgmtDb;Integrated Security=SSPI";
Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.Application app = catalog.Applications[applicationName];
if (app == null)
throw new Exception(String.Format("Application '{0}' cannot be found.", applicationName));
status = app.Status.ToString();
catch (Exception ex)
//Handle exception
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("MyMonitoryingApp", "Exception call stack: " + ex.ToString());
finally
if (catalog != null) { catalog.Dispose(); }
return status;
UPDATE: Found the thread from where I got this code. Thanks to Ashwin for providing it.
Refer:
Reg Stored Procedures for BizTalk Application Status in BizTalk Admin Console

Hi,
In SharePoint 2013, we can take use of REST API or Client Object Model to access the SharePoint objects like Form Library.

With the retrieved file, we can then use XmlDocument object to parse it and get the values you want:
