Hi elyan,
1) Always use "build path" instead of string operations to build a filepath!
2) remove the "file dialog" when you don't want that file dialog popup!
3) First you write to a file, than you read from it? What's the reason for this?
4) You create the file with "write only" access mode, but want to read from it?
The attached vi runs without any error messages for me...
Edited: I added a simple error check to the folder creation part, as the original vi only runs without error for the first call...

4. There are no Rules in outlook
5. I am able to delete the "Junk" folder, but again after closing & opening the outlook the folder gets automatically created.
What could be wrong here :(

Hi,
Which type of email account are you using? Do you have the email account sync to any mobile device? If so, please check the junk email option on the mobile device. You can also try to disable the sync in the mobile device and then check the issue again.
Please let me know the result.
Also see a similar issue discussed here:

How do I create a folder to which PDF documents are automatically saved?

I save many PDF documents which I then attach to various internal forms.
Is there a way to create a folder to which the scanned document can automatically be saved without having to browse for the folder every time I save a document?

Unless your scanning software has that feature, "Save as" opens up a "browse" window by default in Windows or Mac. I had an old Lexmark scanner that allowed setting a default save location for "bulk scans", but I haven't seen that feature in years.

Creating a folder based on registation info?

I'm creating a user and want to add a feature where when their account is created, automatically a subfolder with their username is created and they are assigned that folder (for viewing images), any ideas on how I would do this in ADDT? I know how to display it once I get this done, but creating the folder (server side) is what I am stumped on. Thanks. -Aaron

Hi Aaron,
here´s a quick´n dirty function
(in fact a Custom AFTER Trigger) I´m using to create a directory after inserting a new record:
mkdir ("../../user_directories/".KT_escapeForSql($tNG->getPrimaryKeyValue(),$tNG->getColumnType ($tNG->getPrimaryKey()))."", 0755);
This sample code will actually create a directory (plus give it a 755 permission) that´s named according to the newly inserted record´s Primary Key rather than the user name.
You could also use $tNG->getColumnValue() to set it to the user´s name, but I personally strongly prefer the "Primary Key" method, as this value will never change, but user names might possibly -- and for retrieving the current user´s "my directory" in whatever page, you´d simply have to use the Session variable kt_login_id.

How to create a folder with date each day?

I've not used Automator, just once to "create" a workflow to create a new folder with a name; but what I want is this:
Each morning at 12:01 am, a new folder to be created with the correct date as the name of the folder.
So for tomorrow, Sunday 23 Nov 2008 at 12:01, I'd suddenly have a folder on my Hard Drive that would have the date like 23 Nov 2008 or 11/23/2008 or 23-11-2008 or similar.
Then at the end of a week I'd have 7 of these; - but I can manually trash them-- I want to create these on my HD since I backup via SuperDuper! each morning (automatically) at 3:35 am (incremental backup to an external La Cie HD) and I want to know if was done, so by having a folder with the date on it I can open the external HD and if I see that that folder with the recent date is there, then I'm confident the BackUp was run.
I have been able to create a workflow to create a folder in Automator, but not sure how to:
1. Have the folder created automatically each day at 12:01
2. How to have the folder label be the date
Thanks for any comments or certainly any other work-around or other way to do this or similar.
Regards, Steve

Open the AppleScript Editor. Copy the following into it:
set dt to date string of (current date)
set mth to word 2 of dt
set dy to word 3 of dt
set yr to word 4 of dt
set dtt to mth & " " & dy & " " & yr
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "Macintosh HD:Users:username:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
Amend the path with your Hard Disk name and username. Save as an application to anywhere suitable.
In iCal, set up an event with a daily repeat and an alarm at the time you want it: under 'Alarm' choose 'Open file': then in the next menu which will appear change from 'iCal' to 'Other' and navigate to your script. Enter the date and time.
Your folder will be created as required: iCal does not need to be running. This script gives the folder name as, for example, 'November 22 2008', but it's easy to amend the script if you want something a bit different - for example:
property zro : ""
set yr to year of (current date) as string
set dy to day of (current date)
set mt to month of (current date)
set dyy to dy as string
set nmm to the number of items in dyy
if nmm is 1 then
set zro to 0
end if
if mt is January then
set mth to "01"
else if mt is February then
set mth to "02"
else if mt is March then
set mth to "03"
else if mt is April then
set mth to "04"
else if mt is May then
set mth to "05"
else if mt is June then
set mth to "06"
else if mt is July then
set mth to "07"
else if mt is August then
set mth to "08"
else if mt is September then
set mth to "09"
else if mt is October then
set mth to "10"
else if mt is November then
set mth to "11"
else if mt is December then
set mth to "12"
end if
set dtt to mth & "-" & zro & dy & "-" & yr as string
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "iBook HD:Users:roger:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
This gives the folder name as, for example, 11-22-2008. (The days will have leading zeros, if you don't want these just remove the references to 'zro'.)

Linked Images : Automatic Folder Creation for linked images?

Best Rgards
Mac OSX 10.9.3
InDesign CC (9.2.1)
Presently: 120 page Blurb publishing with 190 images
I have created a large number of INDD documents that I piece together from many sources,
such as file folders, internet searches, external drives, emails...kind of grabbing things
from all over the place. usually I publish this as a PDF for local and archival use. Sometimes
using this also for newsletters and other ways to distribute documents as pdf and epub.
I never really paid to much attention to LINKED FILES and where they might
be located, as my intent was PDF and you can publish a very
serviceable Pdf without verifying or correcting MISSING LINKS...
NOW, I am working on a higher end 120 page Photo BOOK to have printed on paper.
I did not organise my image assets into a folder, i should have first. Now as I go to
upload to the publisher I find I have to many missing links to images. So I am going
back through the whole project and organising the assets and re-linking...what a lot of work this is.
I was wondering if InDesign supports automatic creation of assets folder?
As you place images, with their links, the program creates a folder and puts a copy of the file there?
I don't see anything about this subject.
I am wondering why not? It would sure make the work flow speed up. Options for
the format, size, pip etc. Does this exist in InDesign and if not
wtf not?
Sure would appreciate anyone's thoughts on this. It is to late now to save this
relinking 190 images, but I realise I need to be better prepared with my assets in the
future. I work on a number of publications, some spontaneously and others
more carefully planned...some sort of auto process for asset-linked-folders
seems a simple enough coding issue. It is 2014 already.
???....best rgards, Thanks for any input on this issue.

Thanks to everyone for these answers. I guess the real answer is "no", Adobe software engineers see no reason to create a script which
will place linked files into a folder. To bad. A really serious and lazy oversight in my view. The package function is helpful if one has already
organised their assetts.
As great as these programs are, this is an oversight of some frustration. As I said in my comments above, it seems an easy enough routine to program
into the app. Why should a user have to worry about collecting details of resources/links for a document?
Even after all these years?
Best regards, thanks to everyone who contributed some thoughts.

Create automatic backup?

Is it possible to set Acrobat Pro 9.0 to create an automatic backup of whatever document you are working on? I don't mean "save". For example, in MS Word, I have my preferences set so that a document named Backup Document Name is automatically created as I work on the document, so in case there is a computer or application crash while using the document, the Backup Document is automatically saved.
Does anything similar exist in Acrobat Pro?
Thanks.
Sheri

thank you for answer . You mean create two scheduled task with wbadmin or powershell ? Create Backup once ? With this is still full backup , or incremental ? And can I create automatic backup ?
Falcon

How to create automatically pdf with automator

Hello,
Probably my problem has been posted many times on this forum. So, any help is more than welcome.
I would like to create a workflow that creates automatically a pdf version of any file when dropped for example in a defined folder.
Is it possible? Does someone have already a similar workflow working?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Tom

Sure, but you would do that if you have to convert one or two files.
I am looking for a workflow which converts automatically into pdfs hundreds of word documents for example.
thanks

How to delete pic and docu from iPad desktop

This photo and document on your iPad's home screen came from where?
I wasn't aware this was possible.
You can create a folder for apps by dragging an app on top of another app. A folder will be created automatically along with the name for the folder based on the apps you are placing in the folder, or you can manually enter whatever you want to name the folder. You can follow this by dragging similar or like apps within the same folder.

Folders are creating automatically in Sql Server Report Manger

Dear All,
I am using Sql Server Reporting Services. And i have created Diffrent Folders in Report Manager,
And deployed various reports. Now the problem is one folder created automatically in Report Manager as 'User Folders'
and in that folder, sub folders are created automatically whenenver users are extracting the reports.
Iam getting the below error whenever iam going to delete that folders,
The permissions granted to user 'sbkhetan' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)
Pl help me on this issue. How can i delete that folders,
Thanks

That folder is part of the My Reports functionality. As long as you've got that activated you cannot delete the folder...
"While the feature is activated, Users Folders and its subfolders cannot be deleted. Furthermore, the name "My Reports" becomes
a reserved name for folders created under the root node (Home)."

Automatic folder creation fails ... trying to use the bulletin board tutor

Hello,
I would like to create a blog using KMC functionality. For this I found an sdn article on how to create an bulletin board an this tutorial has some functionality I need in the blog too.
Unfortunately I have some problems when I want to have an folder created automatically. Here are the steps I am doing:
Creating a folder in the km-content named /documents/Blog
In Content-Management > Repository Filters > Userhome Filter+ I created an filter:
Name: Blog
Priority:
URLs: Postings
Prefix: /documents
Startpath: /Blog
Then I created a folder for the km-navigation iview in the portal content. The path to the initial folder is: /alias/documents/Blog/<user.id>/Postings
But when I call the preview to see the newly created folder ... I get the error message that the object couldn't be found (translated it means something like):
Object not found /alias/documents/Blog/<user.id>/Postings
Has someone an idea what the reason could be? Is it that the automatic creation of folders is only possible in special folders?Did someone faces the same or an similar problem and could help to solve it?
Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend,
Vanessa

Hello,
It worked perfectly fine for me.
Of course only after the restart.

Hi Tq1,
You can choose a number of ways to sort items in a Finder window in Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite). See this article for how to select your sort order -

Creating automaticly foldername by date (YYY MM DD) fails in PSE10

Using Elements 10 i have a problem when importing files from my camera to Harddisk.
I want to import the files in Elements Organizer creating automaticly a foldername like YYYY MM DD.
If i choose this (YYY MM DD) in properties(Camera and Cardreader), Elements Organizer will creat a Folder like YYYY DD MM.
Because i have a lot of photos organized within Organizer it is difficult to find the folders
by date on my harddisk.

Hi, Brian,
No - I tried downloading the new update a couple of times and it always seemed to delete files from my card after dowloading them - so I went back to the old version - I can cope with the wrong date format by using a custom date setting which seems to work.
In terms of the downloader duplicating files - it seems to work if I use the basic dowloader (at least it picks up some duplicates) - but does'nt work when I use the advanced format where you can choose which pictures to copy across.
Maybe my set up is odd in some way - at least I know these work arounds now.

I am trying to install software and am getting the following prompt.Installation Failed, the installer cant create the folder "var/folders/sq/2fzf3s_d2bzb21159nbwkb2r0000gn/T//install.3732dq0ogT. How do I repair this

I am trying to install software and am getting the following prompt.
"Installation Failed, the installer cant create the folder "var/folders/sq/2fzf3s_d2bzb21159nbwkb2r0000gn/T//install.3732dq0ogT.
How do I repair this

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
