Draging files/apps to subfolder of stacked folder

Hi,
Moving a file/app to a Stacked folder on the Dock is easy, I have just to drag-and-drop the file to the stack.
But if I want to move the file/app to a subfolder of that folder, I drag it to the top of the stack, hold it there, wait for the folder to appear on Finder, look for the subfolder and then drop the file there. Isn't there any easier way, without opening the Finder? Showing the subfolders as a grid, for example, so I can drop the files directly there on the Dock?
Thanks,

There are two options for viewing the contents of a stack in the Dock, as a List or as a Grid. You can change the view to your preference by either Control + Clicking or Right Clicking the stack in the Dock and selecting one of the two options to view available. You can also select the way that the folder displays; as a single folder or as a stack of documents.

  • Move files out of subfolder into main folder

    I have a bunch of files in subfolders :
    mainfolder A / subfolder 1 / file a
    mainfolder A / subfolder 1 / file b
    mainfolder A / subfolder 1 / file c
    mainfolder A / subfolder 2 / file d
    mainfolder A / subfolder 2 / file e
    mainfolder A / subfolder 2 / file f
    mainfolder A / subfolder 3 / file g
    mainfolder A / subfolder 3 / file h
    is there a script or automator thingie that will automatically move them all into the main folder? Like as follows :
    mainfolder A / file a
    mainfolder A / file b
    mainfolder A / file c
    mainfolder A / file d
    mainfolder A / file e
    etc?
    have used scripts (especially in iTunes) but never the automator - would appreciate any help!

    Well, it's relatively easy manually.
    Open a separate Finder window for mainfolder A by COMMAND-clicking on the folder. Move this folder to the right of the other Finder window. Now navigate to subfolder 1 in the left Finder window and press COMMAND-A to select all the files in that subfolder. Drag the selected files to the right Finder window. This moves them all where you want them. Now repeat this for the files in the other subfolders. When you finish all the files will have been moved to mainfolder A.
    I know this isn't the most elegant solution, but it may take a lot less time then it would take you to write a script or an automator action. Unless, of course, you want the programming experience.

  • Seach and copy files from selected subfolder

    Hi,
    We had some performance issue while looking for files in a folder(Archive) which have more than 600000 subfolders.
    Daily these subfolder get created and we want to look for files inside those subfolder which are created in this year (2014).
    there are only around 30000 subfodler created in 2014. is there any way to direct get-childtimes cmd to search files only in subfolder created in 2014.
    Thanks

    filename.txt is having list of filename (unique filename ) that need to be searched.
    As I have told, total around 600000+ subfolder are present and around 30000 subfolder are of 2014.
    Archive folder is containing ONLY subfolders and each subfolder is having one file. we want to copy some files whose name are listed in filename.txt to local folder.
    net use X: "Network\Folder(Archive)"
    I am creating logical X: drive for network folder "Archive" through cmd prompt.
    in powershell
    X:> Get-Content -path filename.txt | `
    ForEach-Object { Get-ChildItem -r -File $_ } | % { Copy-Item -Path $_.FullName -Destination <out-folder>

  • HT3042 I can't find any file exchange icon in the utilities folder

    I can't find the Bluetooth File Transfer icon in the utilities folder on my iPhone

    It's not supposed to be on your iPhone. That application is for Macs.
    iPhone's do not support file transfers over Bluetooth. There are some apps in the AppStore that can do it to the same app running on another iOS device, but not to non-iOS devices.

  • Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    No. This is NOT true. I've been battling with this for a couple hours.
    I choose Export>Versions
    choose
    Subfolder Format: Project Name
    no custom subfolder
    Name Format: Current Version Name.
    Aperture creates project folders for each image and names them Projects1, Projects2, Projects3 etc.
    To be sure, I have no project named Projects
    x
    This particular Aperture library has 16 projects. you can see in the screen grab it's created more than 30 folders
    If I uncheck the Subfolder, that is say NONE, I just get images and images and images, not in their project folders (of course, because I've said NONE, so why would it put them in project folders?)
    I just want to export the entire library and have the versions placed in folders named by the projects from which they came.... ez enough, no?

  • BizTalk 2010 File to File App - make two copies

    Hi there, 
    I'm learning how to develop applications in BizTalk. 
    I crated a simple "file to file" app,expected behavior is that when I drop any file in the rec folder it will get processed, it's name will be appended of the current date-time and it will be put in the snd folder.
    All works fine except that sometimes there are two files being created not one.
    Example I drop a file named a.txt to rec and two files appear in the snd folder:
    2014-04-25T094304a.txt
    and 
    2014-04-25T094303a.txt
    Also, this not always happens. Most of the time  I'm just getting a single file. 
    When  I added the %MessageID% to the port configuration, it turns out BizTalk creates two different messages 
    Example:
    Also, I can see no errors in BizTalk :(

    Try using messaging only approach as this type of scenario can be achieved using the messaging only approach.
    Just put a filter on the sendport and provide the details of the receive location in the filter.
    I agree with la cour, this scenario doesnt demand an orchestartion. I have answered a question on messaging only approach and it also gives you details on how to catch exceptions if using the fault messages routing. If you want you can
    refer to this post.
    Thank You.

  • The dmg files have downloaded to the wrong folder - not finished with the install process

    The dmg files have downloaded to the wrong folder - I am at the part of the download/install process where the "Welcome" screen appears asking for me to agree to the license agreement.  Somewhere on your site, I read that they should NOT go to the applications folder but to the "Users" folder. Can/should I move/drag the folder with the dmg files into the "Users" folder"? If so, before or after I complete the install? I am running MAC OSX 10.7.4 on a MAC Mini.
    Also, when the trial period is over, I will use the license number for the purchased software disks, should the dmg's/folders then be moved to the application folder or stay in the "users" section? I have Purvhased Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10, but somewhere on your site it was suggested to download them instead and use the license code at the appropiate time. If someone can help with these questions, I would appreciate it. Thank you

    Hi,
    In the Welcome screen, you can accept the license agreement and can go ahead with the installation. You will be asked for the serial number. If you don't have one, install it as a trial application. By default, it's installed in the Applications folder. However, you can change the installation folder in the third screen, if you have a reason. Please see the screenshot below:
    After installing, you can't move application to a different directory by dragging. You need to uninstall and install it again in the folder of your choice.
    Thanks,

  • Every time that I play a tune from my itunes the file duplicates itself into my 'MyDocuments' folder. If I delete this the song is erased from itunes totally. Ideas??

    Everything worked fine for the last two years but now every time that I play a tune from my itunes the file duplicates itself into my 'MyDocuments' folder. If I delete this the song is erased from itunes totally. Ideas??

    You are of course deleting the tunes from within the iTunes interface.
    The settings that I am referring to are your device settings for the iPad. It should show in the left column of iTunes when your iPad is plugged in.
    Go through your playlists and make sure that the tunes(s) are removed from any playlist. You can prevent the sync as noted above then do a sync and the iPad should update with the content from you Mac.

  • TS3704 Trying to delete I Tunes because of missing MSVCR80.dll followed instructions from Apple to delete - Apple Mobile Device support keeps coming up its being used I have gone to program files deleted what I can from folder but left with 3 files

    I have been getting the MSVCR80.dll missing message.
    Been on the Apple site and following instruction.
    Going down the list has instructed I have Deleted I Tunes.
    Deleted Apple Software Update
    But when I try to delete Apple Mobile device it wouldn't delete so went into program files has the instructions say by going to Program Files\common Files\Apple\Apple Mobile Device Support Folder.
    It still wouldn't delete saying it was being used. 
    I opened the file and highlighted all the folders and pressed delete, most of them have disapeared into my recycle bin but the folder still holds AppleMobileService, AppleMobileDeviceService_main.dll and MobileDevice.dll. 
    Message when I right click the first file is AppleMobileService I am told this action can't be completed because file is open in Apple Mobile Device. Close and Try again. 
    When I click the next file AppleMobileDeviceService_main dll it says  It comes up with This action cannot be completed and File description Apple Mobile Device Service. Company Apple Inc. File Version 17.323.0.9 Date Created 7/9/2013. Try again...... and finally  MobileDevice.dll come up with same message but file version 710.0.0.4 Date Created 7/9/2013 Size 902KB Both say Try Again but the same thing just recurred.
    I have left my lap top on hoping that I a swift reply.
    I am certainly no computer wizard and simply trying to follow the instructions to get rid of the box which keep coming up everytime I switch the lap top on saying APS Daemon.exe-System Error. The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.  I had looked at the internet and there appears to be warnings not to click on the button.
    I have had an apdate from Apple for the I Tunes but it wouldn't update. I thought that may have sorted it so whilst I had a few hours I thought I would go through the process that is advised on Apple's website. 
    I hope I have not ruined my computer. I haven't even tried deleting Bonjour or Apple Application Support (I Tunes 9 or later) has these are supposed to come after the step I am on.
    Please HELP!!!!!

    Sorry I missed your post. Anyone else with the same issue should find useful resources at Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

    How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4?  And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?
    My 3GS is dying and it's synced to an older computer.  I have tons of datafiles as well as apps, music, text messages, etc. that I need to get moved to the new iphone4 I'm getting.  Then I need to move the sync to a newer computer so that I can sync the new phone and new computer.
    I understand how to get my apps to transfer to a new pc.  That's not the issue.  It's getting ALL the data from the 3GS to the 4 and then to a new computer.
    Thanks.

    Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone).  Very clear. 
    However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer.  How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?

  • How do I drag files in Finder to a different folder?

    How do I drag files in Finder to a different folder?

    First, open one Finder window, and then, open another one pressing Command and N keys.
    On one window, go to the folder where the files are, and on the other one, go to the folder where you want to put your files. Choose them with the Command key (or select all if you want to transfer all of them, with Command and A keys) and drag them to the other Finder window

    I have a subfolder of a folder that I want to make a subfolder of my inbox. Is this doable?

    As far as I know you cant make folders in your inbox. But if you realy want it you can move everything in your inbox to a new folder "IN" and there you can make a lot of folders. A stupied solution

  • One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder...

    Upon opening Photoshop CS5 I have the following message displayed on the screen. I have uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop but it did not make a difference., the message keeps showing up. It is getting annoying and I have no idea which files are missing. Anyone know how to fix this? I am copying the message here:
    One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop.

    It's not a systemic problem, no.  Photoshop CS5 can certainly run without an error message.
    Was it working without the error message on your system at one time?
    Have you made any changes to the files supplied as part of Photoshop?
    An uninstall (possibly via the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool) followed by a reinstall will probably get you working again.
