Displaying file extension and "raw" tag in iPhoto 08

In iPhoto 06, filenames were displayed with their extensions and a "raw" tag was added.
In 08, the "title" field doesn't contain the file extension. Is this a result of the way I imported photos into 08? I used "import" to bring them in from folders on a network drive.
Glenn

I right clicked the RAW file, then chose "edit in separate window". I did crop, contrast, sharpen, etc. Then the "Done" button.
For example, I imported both RAW and JPEG from my CF card to iPhoto. They are IMG_3067.CR2 and IMG_3067.JPG, respectively. I then duplicated the first file and renamed the new one as IMG_7777.CR2. I did the edit like mentioned above on IMG_7777.CR2. Finally I clicked "Done". You can see that IMG_7777.CR2 differs from IMG_3067.CR2 but it still has the CR2 file extension.
Is this normal or I missed something here?

Display File Extension in iPhoto?

I've just started to use iphoto. In the thumbnail view of an event (or for that matter, anytime I'm viewing a display of thumbnails), I would like iphoto to display file name and file extension. It's not doing that and I can't see a setting in iphoto preferences to enable file extensions. I know there's a Finder preference to show all extensions, and it is checked.
Is there a way to display file extensions?

Yes.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Query about tag extensions and custom tags

Hello,
Can u please clarify me where are these tag extensions and custom tags are actually used. (in which conditions)
What are the advantages in using them...
thanks in advance..
Jaagy.

You have to remember that .tag are, in a way, jsp pages, so you can use other custom tags, etc.
We use them when we need template that are mostly html, with a little bit of logic in them that we want to reuse.
For example, we made one for or header and footer. In header.tag, we set all of our http info, from doctype to body, including default css, title, etc if they are not supplied as parameter, and in our footer we put the /body and /html tags. Now, our typical pages look like
<%@ taglib tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags" prefix="custom" %>
<custom:header title="Page title" />
... page content
<custom:footer />Now, if we want to change some attribute for the whole page, or to put a signature in each page, we just have to change the corresponding .tag file and the whole site is update.
Also, .tag file can be used to display selectively page fragment.
Take a look at Sun's tutorial for more info:

Hope this helps!

Filter/Redirect based on file extension and path

Posted this earlier on the NSAPI list, didn't get a response. Can some
one help?
Thanks
Immanuel
I am attempting to write a filter/redirector based on file extension
and
the path of the file - some thing like:
http:\\www.wombat.com\filetpye1\file1.abc
gets redirected to server http:\\foo.com\file1.abc
http:\\www.wombat.com\filetpye2\file2.xyz
gets redirected to server http:\\bar.com\file2.xyz
Can some one tell me
a. Is this possible using NSAPI and conf file changes
b. Pointer (and source if available) to implment this
Regards
Immanuel

You need to use Client tages and redirect and other SAFs. More info in :

Can I force iTunes to display file extensions?

I just downloaded iTunes yesterday. It's my first experience with the program.
Can I force iTunes to display file extensions? If so, how?
For example, when converting an MP4 audio file to an MP3 one, neither shows its extension, and so the two files appear the same within iTunes.

I wrote a program for Windows to embed the downloaded
artwork into the file. Please note, embedding the
artwork takes up more disk space; Apple's method of
NOT embeddeding it means they only have one copy of
the artwork. Embedding the artwork takes up X times
as much space, where X is the number of tracks for
that album. (e.g. if the album artwork is 500 KB,
and you have 10 tracks, the disk space consumed is
10*500KB or 5000 KB (~5MB))
http://home.comcast.net/~teridon73/itunesscripts/itune
sinsertartwork.zip
That sounds exactly like something I am looking for. Yes, I realize that I am sacrificing disk space to do this - but I have a lot of space to spare on my iPod and I am really tired of redownloading artwork when I change the way I organize my files (or God forbid I have to do a full restore at some point).
I am running your tool now and it looks to me like it works great! Thanks for posting it, I truly appreciate it. Do you know of any sites where people develop these kinds of tools for iTunes (I suspect you participate in one or more of these).
One question - from the looks of it, you do handle the case where I have already embedded my own artwork in files (for those that are not in the Apple iTunes library). Does iTunes actually put that image in its database (the one I embedded) or did you have to allow for that in your utility? Just curious.
Thanks a LOT for that utility!

How to create new file extension and associate an application with it?

Hi,
I want to create a new file extension named ".emsof" and
associate any text editor with it like notepad++ in windows 8.1
Moreover all of these files should be searched by having filter of "*.emsof" like any other ordinary files.
Please guide me about hoe to do it?
Thanks.

Hi BurrWalnut,
Thanks for the help.
Will this command also allow me create and save file with .emsof extension and to filter files through .emsof extension (Like we can filter through .doc or .txt extension)???
1. I don’t know what you mean by ‘filter’. In your initial post you mentioned searching, if that’s what you mean, you can search for any extension.
2. An easy to understand example of the assoc and ftype commands is a .txt file, which we all use in Notepad:
Typing assoc .txt in a cmd prompt will return txtfile (the file type).
Typing ftype txtfile will return %SystemRoot%\System32\notepad.exe %1 (the full path of the program and %1 representing a passed parameter).
Alternatively, look in the registry hive HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT for .txt and further down for txtfile.
3. If you add an entry that is later unwanted, you can easily delete it by typing assoc .emsof= and pressing Enter. Then delete the filetype by typing ftype myext= and pressing Enter. You can, of course, just delete the entries in the registry (nor recommended
for beginners).
4. Test it out now but be aware not to use extensions or filetypes that currently exist.
5. Display all extensions and their associated file types by firstly copying the following 4 lines:
assoc >"%userprofile%\desktop\assoc.txt
start notepad "%userprofile%\desktop\assoc.txt
exit
cls
Press the Windows Logo key+X (or right-click or press and hold the bottom left corner) and choose Command Prompt/Windows PowerShell (Admin). Using the mouse right-click, paste the 4 copied lines to the Command Prompt window. A .txt file is created on the Desktop
and Notepad will open and display the list. The list represents the registry keys located in the merged HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. In the left pane, look for the extension, for example .txt. The (Default) field in the right pane contains the file type, e.g. txtfile.
6. Now display all file types and their associated programs by substituting the above 4 lines with these:
ftype >"%userprofile%\desktop\ftype.txt
start notepad "%userprofile%\desktop\ftype.txt
exit
cls
Another .txt file is created on the Desktop and Notepad will open and display it. This list represents the registry keys in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT further down beyond the extensions. Look for the file type, for example txtfile, then click or tap shell\open\command.
In the right pane, the (Default) field shows the full path of the program that opens it, e.g. notepad.
7. NOTE. In operation, any keys in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes (current user) take precedence over those in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes (all users) and both keys appear as the merged HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. Any changes should be made to HKCU and
HKLM. The HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT keys are intended to be read from, not written to.

How to display file extensions

Hi,
I'm trying to get our Sharepoint 2013 server to show file extensions again and I've had no luck so far. I've been able to add an extra name column that shows the file extension (like ), but that name is not clickable anymore so I've ended up with one name
that's a link and the same name next to it. This doesn't look good, especially when the users pick overly long file names.
This (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/11161.how-to-display-file-extensions-in-a-sharepoint-document-library.aspx) seems to apply to Sharepoint 2007 only. I'm not sure which onet.xml file they mean and the default file has several
occurences of "Name=”Created_x0020_Date”", or how adding
Name=”File_x0020_Type”/> without an extra opening bracket would work.
I've also found and tried this solution: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/59c15eee-9116-4aa1-8d16-32cd361c9a2f/show-file-extensions-in-document-library?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
>>3. Edit the WebPartPages:XsltListViewWebPart so that the link contains the extension.
>>a. Open SharePoint Designer and click on the desired document library.
>>b. Open the View you want to change, which in most cases is "All Documents".
>>c. Find the line that looks like this:
>><xsl:value-of select="$thisNode/@FileLeafRef.Name" />
>>d. Edit the line to look like this: (the xsl:if tests to see if the suffix is not blank and then displays a '.' and the suffix)
>><xsl:value-of select="$thisNode/@FileLeafRef.Name" /><xsl:if test="$thisNode/@FileLeafRef.Suffix!=''">.<xsl:value-of select="$thisNode/@FileLeafRef.Suffix" /></xsl:if>
This doesn't seem to work with Sharepoint 2013 because the line <xsl:value-of select="$thisNode/@FileLeafRef.Name" /> doesn't seem to exist. Are there any other suggestions on how to get the file extensions to show?
Thank you.

Hi
use these functions
RIGHT (Text, Number)
Return X characters from the right
RIGHT(“The Quick Brown Fox”, 5)
n
SEARCH(Text1, Text2, Num)
Returns the index of Text1 within Text2,starting the search at index Number
Formula should be
right([Name-column],search[".",[Name-column],1))

Tags, no longer displaying file names and other issues

I upgraded to Mavericks, MacBook Air.
I need help sorting out what is going on with Tags.
I have a screen shot, but uploading it to this post is another problem I have run into with Mavericks. I click on the camera icon, click on upload file, and then I get a list of greyed out files, and am unable to select any of them. Very unmac like.
Back to the tag issue. The tags are listed in the open finder window. Most of the tags I have created, when selected, will display all the files with that tag, and show the file name or icon.
BUT, one of my tags, which has over a thousand files, will not display the file names. What is shown are a list of blank icons, and no file names. The preview for each file still shows as it should when a file is selected, and the file name is listed in the preview.
A picture is worth a thousand words, so I really wish I could have uploaded the screen shot!
In addition, some of the files, e.g. a .pdf file, will show no icon, no file name, no file size, but will open when double clicked and dispaly the file name and a greyed out addition to the file name "-Locked". Much weirdness.
Tags have not been working well for me. I have used colours extensively in the past for organization and now it seems to be a huge problem converting to tags. What a painful transition from Mountain Lion!

With the backup completed, I followed your suggestion:
"Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again."
The smart folders disappeared. The original Tags named by colour are back on the list of Tags, and the problems remain unchanged.
In the Tags I created for my file collection, call it the LotsOfFiles folder, there are no file names listed, none.
However, when I changed the permissions on every file in the LotsOfFiles folder to Staff-Read & Write, then I was able to change, add, and delete Tags from the files. Also, once the permissions were changed the file names appeared, after five minutes... so I edited this entry when I discovered the change.
The files in LotsOfFiles have been collected since 1995, and have been saved to many computers and many backup systems. They also have been used, saved, changed etc. in operating systems dating back to OS7, and almost every operating system up to 10.9. They also are being used on different computers right now, one running OS 10.3.9. one running 10.7, and one running 10.9. The computers all have different admin logins and info.
But I still can't upload files to this forum!

I can read NEF and RAW photos in iPhoto but not Aperature. What's up ?

How do I read and print NEF and RAW files ? Aperature is saying that the file format is incorrect but iPhoto reads them fine.

What is your Aperture version, Mac OS X Version, and your camera model?
The raw support is specific for each camara, and it will depend on you Aperture version, if the raw support is available.
See this list for the raw formats, that are supported in Aperture.
Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
Is your iPhoto version newer than your Aperture version? If both versions are current, they should be able to read the same raw formats.

Windows 8.1 File Extensions and Show Hidden Files Always showing

Dear sir,
It's been an on and off problem for me since my windows 8.1 sometimes like to show it all whether it's the extensions of the file or even the file itself and it doesn't accept my command on not showing it. I have a bitdefender 2015 always up to date so my
guess is that could not be a virus please help.

Hi,
How about uncheck file extension option? In addition, follow the screenshot below and make your settings same with main.

File extensions and other formats

I'm having trouble with file extensions when saving AW files in other formats. I suspect it may have to to do with a recent upgrade to 10.5
I have (as recommended in the forum) deleted the AW plist files, but it didn't help.
Here are the symptoms:
1. When saving, "Hide extensions" is always checked. I remember it as always being unchecked (which I prefer) . Unchecking it every time is getting annoying.
2. If I uncheck Hide Extensions, I can save as an AW file with its cwk extension, no problem
3. If I change the File Format to something else, like Text, then the Hide Extension box (which I had previously unchecked) is now checked again. The previous cwk extension disappears, but the period remains.
4. If I then uncheck Hide Extensions, a second period appears.
5. If I try to get rid of the extra periods and add txt so that the file is filename.txt, I get an error message that says I can't use the extension ".txt", and that the required extension is "." Using both leaves me with "filename.txt."
6. The only solution has been to let it save with Hide Extension checked, then go into the finder, use Get Info to unhide the extension, and then save it with the correct extension, which is getting to be a real pain in the patoot.
Help, anyone? I'm ready to downgrade back to 10.4.
RJ

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Downgrading to 10.4 won't help much. The problem lies in AppleWorks being a Classic application that was carbonized to run in OS X. It just doesn't "understand" extensions. Although adding the period in Leopard is new, the problem with the error messages when you save an AppleWorks document as text or Word & add the appropriate extension is not new. I've given up & just add the correct extension in Finder.

Does anyone know how to change .mov to a supported file extension (and what extension would you suggest)? .mov works on Apperture 3.0 so I thought it would work on Final Cut Pro X....

Does anyone know how to easily change a .mov file extension to one of the accepted Final Cut Pro X extensions? I thought since .mov worked in Aperture 3.0 it should work on FCP X. Thanks

Hi Tom
Thanks
I am now doing some 1 minute import tests from various Q/T's
They are all in the same place on an External 1 TB Western Digital - connected by Firewire 800
I have just imported some 1 minute tests from other Q/T 's and they have imported Ok - quickly imported and transcoded etc fine and quickly.
Using your suggested methd of getting the details using Quicktime 7 Movie Inspector I can see NO DIFFERENCE in the formats! In fact with four of these files open I can click on each in turn and see the Inspector details for each in turn - and only the name, size etc changes - not the format!
I am really upset and confused by this as I have been trying for the last four days to get these imported. I realise that this is small potatoes to those who are having problems with even FCP 7 Files! But, these are q/t's of 30 hours worth of unique reserahc material I shot in Africa. I have made several programmes from this material before (one even shown on Discovery!) I WAS hoping that I could use the new and all singing FCPX to make some new programmes for teaching purposes
But, how can I do that if only some will import? As I posted elsehwre - i get the message "No importable files"
I am REALLY grateful for your expertise and advice here
thanks

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 $Files)) so I can tell if any of the
files being combined where actually empty. It wants to search the current location from the sever not just-Locations parm..
Error message in LOG file:
Get-ChildItem : Cannot find path 'F:\powershell\-SearchFor' because it does not
exist.
It's trying to find file install.cmd from where script starts and all the -Locations(which is only the search parm)
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)

End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\Server1\c$\Temp", "\\Server1\c$\Test1" -SearchFor "Install.cmd" -AppendTo "C:\Temp\Search.log"
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.

How to assign file extension and custom icon to executable?

Hi all,
I was reading an old thread about this issue:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=116925
I need to try to do this. My application uses a custom file extension (i.e. .abc). Upon installation I would like to:
1. Assign My App and custom icon to the file class (extension .abc).
This could be done by manipluting the registry (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776856(VS.85).aspx)? This could be a problem with Vista s unless registry operations occur during installation any changes are placed in a VirtualStore, correct?
2. Enable the double-clicking of .abc file type to pass the data in the file to my VI (exe).
According to the File Handling Guidelines of Jean-Pierre Drolet (http://www.openg.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=File+Handling+Guidelines) the best way to do this may be using LabVIEW as an ActiveX server.
I know that when I build an executable (or installer?) there is the option to enable LabVIEW to act as an ActiveX server. This much I know I need to do.
I thought I would open this discussion again as others may be interested and there doesn't appear to be a completely clear solution available. Please do contribute where you can.
Cheers,
Battler.

This needs to work (the files need to open) not only when the application is closed but also when it's already open.
Anyone have ideas?
The solution to that is to implement a DDE server in your application (and add DDE entries to the registry on installation). There are still DDE functions in LabVIEW vi.lib\Platform\dde.llb but they are considered depreciated and have been removed from the palette, also because Microsoft is trying to tell everyone that DDE is depreciated and sort of unsupported too. But it is still the mechanisme to pass actions from the shell to running applications.
I hesitate to send you over to lavag.org where there have been some discussions about this years ago. If you go there you would do good to employ a friendly attitude. That board is run all by enthusiasts and idealists and they are all great folks but react not very friendly to people with an attitude.
