Delete files and sub-directories over created over 1 year ago

Hi Josh,
Have a look at this script I got for cleaning up a scans folder.
It's a bit over the top but it works.

Hello,
I have a batch script that runs at the start of every month which clears report files and moves them into an archive directory in a folder with the date of the move. So the archive folder doesn't fill up i want to run a script on it that clears out any folders created over 1 year ago.
I've got:
Set dir="C:\aa_Mine\test\testto"
Echo Deleting all files from %dir%
del %dir%\* /F /Q
Echo Deleting all folders from %dir%
for /d %%p in (%dir%\*) Do rd /Q /S %%p
pause
which deletes all the files and folders in the directory but is there a way only doing it for ones edited over 1 year ago. I tried to add the /minage: command but its not supported.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Deleting Files and (sub)folders - how to

Hi,
Easy question. Easy there a vbscript to delete all files and (sub)folders, empty or not. Important, here is that the parent folder must NOT be deleted, only it´s contents. (important: this folder is located on a mapped share \\servername\foldername\)
please help

Hi,
' Delete All Subfolders and Files in a Folder
Const DeleteReadOnly = TRUE
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objFSO.DeleteFile("C:\FSO\*"), DeleteReadOnly
objFSO.DeleteFolder("C:\FSO\*"),DeleteReadOnly
Save the above code in test file with .vbs file extension. modify "C:\FSO" to your folder.

Have you recently added your Facebook credentials? If you haven't synced with your PC recently, this is likely the reason.

How do I view the first imessage between a friend and I from over 1 year ago?

My girlfriend and I have been texting for quite awhile now, over a year to be exact and I was curious on how to see the first imessages we shared between each other whenever we first started talking. I have tried to scroll all the way up but it just freezes and closes out once I get like 2 months back.

Create your text with no fill or stroke.
In the Appearance pallette, give your text a fill and (one) stroke of the color you desire. Make the stroke weight what you want the final surrounding stroke to be.
Then, in the Appearance pallette, with the stroke selected, use the FX menu (see below, circled in red) and go to Path > Offest Path and enter the offset desired.

Updated operating system and the ipad4th gen froze up and restored it's self and now I lost all my photos and videos from over a year ago,,any way to recover them?

system restored it's self after a recent operating system upgrade 8.0 and kept shutting down and restarting ,asked to be linked to my mac ,,so I did and it totally reset it's self ,all my apps ,photos and videos are gone from the day I bought the ipad...looked in itunes and I cloud and they are not there,,is it possible to recover all my photos now after a complete restore has happened?

Do you have a back up?
If not you're into using file recovery software like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

I am trying to open space in my macbook hard drive, so I deleted files and after emptying the trash bin the amount of Gigs didn't increase, why? Where can I go and delete those files?

Did you do a secure empty trash? SHIFT COMMAND DELETE, they will be over wriiten. Are you deleting docs as they aren't much space, videos,pictures,music use much more space.
You can move those fiels to an external "archive" drive to save them then delete them from your internal drive.

HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list. I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

Hello, I lost my iphone over a year ago and I haven't been able to get any of the music that I purchased. Is there a way to retrive my music library

Im wondering how I can get the music that I had on my iphone 4. I lost the phone over a year ago, but I spent hundreds of dollars on music albums. since then I have never been able to find out if I can get the albums that I purchased and save them in my computer. I don't have a iphone or other cell phone at the moment. the phone that I lost was not backed up. if anyone know how to do that, I would be thrilled.

If you got them from the iTunes Store, click here for information.
If you got them from somewhere else, reload them from that source.

Jsp code (js code) to display(tree) the files and sub folders in a folder

Hi all
plz can any one send me the source in jsp or js to display in tree structure for files and sub folders in a folder.

There are dozens of Javascript tree widgets available on the Internet. Some are free. Some are good. Google will find them for you.
(The only relevance of JSP to your question is that yes, you can generate HTML that uses one of those Javascript tree widgets.)

Deleted files and photos

If deleted files and photos even from the bin, is it possible in anyway to take them back without any cost issues?
Thanks

It may be possible to recover some erased ones, but you must quit using the Computer immediately, because the OS will think it can write to those freed blocks on the disk.
Either boot this one in Target mode...

And recovering from another Mac, or booting this Mac from another HDD, then using Data Rescue...

They have a trial version, so I guess you can see if your data can be recovered...

FileSalvage is an extremely powerful Macintosh application for exploring and recovering deleted files from a drive or volume. FileSalvage is designed to restore files that have:
    * been accidentally deleted.
    * become unreadable due to media faults.
    * been stored on a drive before it was re-initialized/formatted.

I have an iPhone 5. I got it just over a year ago and the power button recently quit working. Since ive had it for over a year, can i take it in and have it replaced or fixed?

I got my iPhone 5 a little over a year ago, and my power button recently quit working. Since ive had it for over a year, can i still get it fixed or replaced?

Wow that is so unlucky. If I was you I would try talking to someone at the Apple Store, explain your situation and don't be shy to shed a tear or too. Its just a shame 3 weeks after your phone getting hardware problems. I know people will say, oh buy Apple Care but I feel ya and I know adding that extra money in the beginning feels pointless and expensive.
Worst case scenarion like I said you will have to pay Apple 269 for them to swap phones. Or if you have any nerd friends have them fix it for you. Its a tedious repair the way the power button has some weird hinge that needs to snap on and ribbons are so thin. I do not advise for you to attempt to fix your self unless you don't care if you break it completely.
Alternatively you could just turn on Assisitive touch on accessibility and use that. That way you wont need to pay anything to fix your phone and wont need to take it apart either.

I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and format the memory card in my helmet cam?

I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and reformat the memory card in my helmetcam?

If you return the memory card to the helmetcam, it may choose to reformat it before use; back to some FAT-16 or FAT-32 format many of these third-party cards and cameras use. Unless you were going to use it for Mac OS X and format it with HFS+ or in a partition map for Mac data, etc.
If not, the easiest way to reformat the card may have been in the camera itself. I've formatted several kinds of camera cards, drives, USB flash drive, and others. The means varies with the intended purpose. Sometimes the default is the best; since it is platform neutral if the device is seen by both players.
Good luck & happy computing!
