File name completion

I am running Korn Shell on Solaris (on SUN Ultra 60) and have a problem with file name completion.
Prior to Korn I ran C-shell and after set filec=on the filename completion worked ok.
Although my understanding is that Korn shell have this feaure built in I also tried export filec=on but it did not help. I am using Esc-Esc to attempt the file name completion. By the way Esc-= works and I get a list of options. Can anybody help? Thanks.

Hello
I am using Solaris 8 ultra-80, found this discussion and into the same problem, before this i used to work on HPUX 11.0/11i never had problem on "filec" as i believe this is "by default" set in ksh.
But on solaris i am finding it difficult to use "file completion" ( i mean filec: using ksh -o vi).
Could some one suggest!!, how do i go about!!.
I don't want to use ksh -o emacs, as i am happy using "ksh -o vi".
-Thanks

File name completion in Solaris 8 (SPARC)

I am running Solaris 8 on an old SPARC-20 using the C shell. File name completion will not work for root or any other users. I have verified that all are setup with the C shell by using echo $SHELL. Other C shell features (aliases, command history, etc..) work. Anyone have any ideas?

Have you set filec=on ?

Allow to have the file name with extension in contacts thumbnails

When I print a contact sheet from the Print module, I would like to have the option to have under each thumbnail the file name complete with the extension; e.g. "Sample.jpg". Right now I can only have the file name, e.g. "Sample".

I think you are talking about unzipping or extracting the contents
of the Zip file. Use the API in 'java.util.zip'
For code refer to

There you would find the code!!
Good luck!!

I have tried reseting to factory settings by removing battery and holding down the power switch for more than 5 sec but this does nothing.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I think with so much unwanted data on the desktop and other places the whole os will crash very soon.
Thanks, Rick

The hard drive may be dying anyway, or the directory damaged because it is so full. You should never let the hard drive get over 85% full.
A -36 error is a read/write error.
All you did with the power is reset the SMC. Does nothing to reset everything to factory settings.
Do you have your original 10.4 installer discs for the MacBook?
Is your data backed up?

Problems copying iTunes folder to an external hard drive - "The operation can't be completed because the item FILE NAME is in use"

Hi,
I have been trying to back up my iTunes folder from my MacBook hard drive over to a new LaCie external hard drive. However, whenever I try to do it at some point during the copying I keep getting the warning "The operation can’t be completed because the item FILE NAME is in use". Each time I have tried it, it is always a different file name that comes up and at different points of the copying. Following the warning, the copying stops and cannot be restarted.
I tried copying the iTunes folder to another Lacie external hard drive that I have, and it worked fine so I am guessing that it maybe something wrong with the hard drive.
I've been trying various approaches all day and can't seem to get anywhere with it - all very frustrating, so any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks.

If you don't have other backup data on it, reformatting external drive could solve the problem.

How can I open a pdf document after downloading is complete and there is no screen reference to file name?

I'm having a problem trying to locate a downloaded PDF file. I'm using Windows 7, and have Adobe Reader XI installed. From a given site some downloads will appear with a listing of individual pages within the document, or there will be a window appearing that has a series of icons to print or scroll, etc. At other times, from the same source & type of document, I will get a representatrion of doanload progress, then a "DONE" when completed. There is no notification anywhere on my screen as to file name or where to look for this download. I even go into "Documents", downloads, recent places, etc. to try and find a listing, to no avail. I also open Adobe Reader to see if there is any clue, again, to no avail. Incidentally, when Adobe Reader opens, there isn't any provision for scrolling, yet there appears to be additional information below the bottom edge of my screen. I sure would appreciate some help on this problem.

On my Windows 7, with any browser, all downloaded files go into the Downloads folder.
If you can't find your downloaded PDF docs, try a search for *.pdf

The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "FILE NAME" can't be read or writen. (Error code -36)

I have a RAID that my Mac says is damaged. It does mount, so I want to copy as much of the data as I can. I tried SuperDuper!, but it crashed (or gave me error and stopped). I tried copying and pasting entire drive (1.75TB) but it stopped with this error, and same error happens with some of the files when I try to copy and paste (Drag and Drop) them individually.
I get this error: The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "FILE NAME" can't be read or writen. (Error code -36)

Well, in pure Apple File System talk... -36 ioErr I/O error (bummers)
Not very helpful, but generally means a Drive quit being Readable or Writable since starting the operation...

If Disk Utility or fsck should fail to repair it, your best bet is DiskWarrior from Alsoft, you'll need the CD to boot from if you don't have another boot drive...
http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/
Might try the free trial of my favorite, Tri-Backup, it does a better copy/clone job in that it usually doesn't quit copying at every error, & has a nice log afterwards to try certain files agin if you wish....

Displaying complete file names on the desktop

I think there was a way to get the finder to display the complete file names on the desktop. Some terminal command. Can anybody help?

I have files on the Desktop that don't have that issue. But when I add characters to them I eventually reach the breaking point -- 37 characters is fine; 38 characters causes the file name to truncate. I suppose there may be a way to set a secret pref to show a larger number of characters using Terminal.
Anyone know how many characters the OS file system is limited to -- ignoring display issues, I mean?

Can you change other images via Image > Image Size?

Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

ITunes shortens file names. Is it possible to keep the complete file names?

Hello community, this is my first entry. Please consider this, if my expressions aren't clear enough. Would be great to find a solution. I use an external USB 3.0 hard drive formatted as HFS+ (under Windows 8 I use MacDrive Pro to have full read/write access) on my MacBook Pro Retina, which hold all my music files. As long as I import and manage my iTune media files under the Mac OS X version of iTunes everything is fine. But when I boot Windows 8 under Bootcamp - I need this native Window environment for my job - and import regular Audio CDs into iTunes for Windows it cuts all my file names of new imported files. The tags are complete, but the file names aren't. Is there a way to change this behaviour of iTunes for Windows? Perhaps a registry entry or something like this. I look forward for your help. Best

Note from other posts:
The content and format of the cache will and do change from version to version of javaws. It is highly unadvisable to build into you application relying on the location or format.
That being said, for 1.4.2 or 1.5.0, the location was as given: "C:\Documents and Settings\<UserID>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javaws", and in long path below that depending on the URL of the resource.
For version 6, the cache is in : "C:\Documents and Settings\<UserID>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0" and then in a directory below that named "0" thry "63", depending on the hash of the URL of the resource. The name will be completely obscure, there will be one binary index file with "idx" extension, and then the actual resource will be the file of the same name w/o any extension.

Getting complete full path of a file name

Greetings Java developer!
I am having a problem in my JSF program to get a complete full path of a file name if I runs it using a browser other than IE.
Here is the code I used to retrieve the complete full path of a fine name in my program.
UploadedFile uploadedFile =
fileUpload1.getUploadedFile();
String uploadedFileName =
uploadedFile.getOriginalName();
note: fileUpload1 is a UI component of sun.rave.web.ui.model.
The expected result would be i.e.:
C:\\abc\file.txt or /abc/file.txt
It works in the IE browser, but does NOT in Mozilla, Firefox, and Netscape. Is anyone have a clue to resolve this problem? Please advice.
Thanks!

Hi,
The tutorial on file upload
http://developers.sun.com/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/file_upload.html
has been updated to include this information. Pasting the relevant code from the tutorial:
public String uploadFileButton_action() {
UploadedFile uploadedFile = fileUpload1.getUploadedFile();
String uploadedFileName = uploadedFile.getOriginalName();
// Some browsers return complete path name, some don't
// Make sure we only have the file name
// First, try forward slash
int index = uploadedFileName.lastIndexOf('/');
String justFileName;
if ( index >= 0) {
justFileName = uploadedFileName.substring( index + 1 );
} else {
// Try backslash
index = uploadedFileName.lastIndexOf('\\');
if (index >= 0) {
justFileName = uploadedFileName.substring( index + 1 );
} else {
// No forward or back slashes
justFileName = uploadedFileName;
}

Truly dumb question. How do I get PS to actually complete a command, eg straighten an horizon, and finalise the change. Even doing a "save as" with a new file name and reloading brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame st

Truly dumb question. How do I get PS to actually complete a command, eg straighten an horizon, and finalise the change. Even doing a "save as" with a new file name and reloading brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame still there. Is there a "apply change" or similiar command that I simply cannot see.

brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame
PSE did what you told it to do. Choose the Straighten and crop edges or fill edges options when you use the straighten tool if you want it to do more than just straighten the contents of the image. Many people prefer the plain straighten because they'd rather crop themselves than let PSE do it.

How can I add form field value to the file name in save as dialog box

I do not want the form to be saved automatically, just want the form to auto populate the "file name" only.
A little background on the forms I want to use: My company has 70 retail outlets, I'll use one of our pdf forms called an "Incident Report" as an example. I would like for a store manager to be able to complete the form, then email the form to the main office (I already have javascript to add field values and form name to the email subject line), once the main office receives it, I want for them to be able to file the pdf electronically on our server. We have mutliple forms that we use so I do not want any of the forms to automatically save anywhere, (at this time anyway) I just want the office personnel to be able to click "save as" (or whatever they will need to click) and the form automatically add certain field values from the pdf they have received, of which will be different each time the form is sent to the office (Date, store #, employee name etc.) in addition to the name of the form in the "File name" of the "Save As" dialog box. The main office employees will decide into which server file the pdf should be saved.
I'm using Acrobat 8 professional, the stores and office personnel use Adobe reader.
One little note: We currently print and file a lot of paper on a daily bases, as soon as I can get this to work, we are going green.
Me and a lot of trees in this will really apprecitate any help you can give with this! :-)

You might want to take a look at the document "Developing Acrobat Applications Using JavaScript" (js_developer_guide.pdf) which is part of the Adobe Acrobat SDK, which can be downloaded here. Read the "Privileged versus non-privileged context" (p. 45ff.). You will find an example for "Executing privileged methods in a non-privileged context". Should be almost exactly what you are looking for.
Small Outline: For security reasons ("the user always has to know what's going on") you are not allowed to use the "Doc.saveAs"-method without the user permission (--> in a non-privileged context). In order to reach the goal of a privileged context you can use a trusted function. You do this by creating a JavaScript file (*.js) in either the Application-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Javascripts") or the User-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%AppData%\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\JavaScripts"). Add the following content to the new file:
myTrustedBrowseForDoc = app.trustedFunction( function ( oArgs ) {
     app.beginPriv();
          var myTrustedRetn = app.browseForDoc( oArgs );
     app.endPriv();
     return myTrustedRetn;
myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function ( doc, oArgs ) {
     app.beginPriv();
          var myTrustedRetn = doc.saveAs( oArgs );
     app.endPriv();
     return myTrustedRetn;
The developer guide actually wants you to add this content to the existing "config.js" file. I recommend creating a new file, since its easier to deploy in a network. Either way, every client/user who needs to be able to save documents this way, needs this JavaScript Code in his Application/User-JavaScript-Folder.
Within the Acrobat Document, which you want to obtain a certain file name, you can now use the trusted functions "myTrustedBrowseForDoc" and "myTrustedSaveAs" to store the file. To call the trusted functions and deliver the file name you can either you use a form field (button) or you add a new menu item. Add the following JavaScript Action to the button/menu item and change "Roller Coaster" to the name of the field which contains the value which you want to become the new file name:
var fileName = this.getField("Roller Coaster").valueAsString;
try {
     var oRetn = myTrustedBrowseForDoc({bSave: true, cFilenameInit: fileName + ".pdf"});
     try {
          myTrustedSaveAs(this, { cPath: oRetn.cPath, cFS:oRetn.cFS });
     catch(e) {
          console.println("Save not allowed, perhaps readonly.");
catch(e) {
console.println("User cancelled Save As dialog box");
Good Luck!
