File Utility - Find operation; How to retrieve all files in a folder?

I am using Find operation of FileUtility service to count the number of files present under a given folder.
I can not find the correct Regular Expression to match all files.
The Adobe documentation mentions that * character is default which matches all files/folder within the Directory. However, If I leave * unchanged, I'm getting an error "Incorrect Regular Expression syntax".
I have tried different combinations, nothing seems worked.
Can anyone assist me on this?
Thanks,
Nith

Hi,
You can use the following syntax to get the list of all files:-
\w*\.\w*
Yow can alslo go through the following material for details on Regular Expressions:

    Connect the iPod to your PC. If iTunes starts syncing (ie erasing) your music automatically, hit the X in the upper right hand corner of iTunes display, to the left of the search box, to stop it.
    In Control Panel, Portable Media Devices, double-click your iPod.
    In the Tools menu -> Options, in the View Tab, check "Show hidden files and folders."
    Navigate to the Music folder. On my 'pod, the full path is
    Portable Media Devices\NAME of IPOD (F:)\iPod_Control\Music
    Select all the music folders, and drag and drop them into a folder on your hard drive, or directly into iTunes.
    And you're done! The iPod music folder structure is strange and inexplicable, but once you move your files into iTunes you can set it to automatically organize your folder by artist and album to clean that up. (To do this, in iTunes Edit menu, choose Preferences and in the Advanced tab, check "Keep iTunes Music Folder organized."
    might be out of date worth a try

    After you restore from backup, you MUST sync to restore your iTunes content. No iTunes content is included in the iPhone backup. Your apps should be in your iTunes library, just sync them back to your phone. If for some reason your apps are not in your library, you can re-download them for free:

  • Scc question: how can I retrieve all files in 6.1?

    hello
    I have recently upgraded from LV5.1 to 6.1.. In 5.1
    it was possible to retrieve all files of a project
    with scc. When I try to do that in 6.1 (scc provider, select changed files, get latest version..) LV searches
    always in the local work directory for the vi's, but they don't exist, so I have to press "cancel" all the
    time.
    Is there an easier way to retrieve all files of a project at once???
    thanks

    NI support has sent me this VI, replace the original
    VI and it works..

    Hi Amit,
    you can not move specific changes from Dev to production.
    but you can follow this process to make your workflow as it is as in Dev:
    Create a new workflow on the new list in Product.
    Create at least one step, one condition and one action in this workflow.
    1. In Dev server open your .xomal file as XML and copy the entire contents.
    2.In Production server Open your .xoml file as XML and Paste the entire contents
    3. repeat this operation for the xoml.rules file
    4.Double click the .xoml file for the new workflow to open the workflow in the Workflow Designer and click Check Workflow to verify no errors and then click Finish to ensure the workflow is saved.
    Whenever you need to make changes apply the same.
    Please Mark Answer and Vote me if it will to resolve your issue

    Hi erastyle,
    Actually the Licensing information for the package is missing hence it is not launching any applications. You need to Reserialize the products using APTEE which you can find it on the Machine where you have created the package. If you dont have the access to that Machine then please download and install Creative Cloud Packager and it will download APTEE in the below mentioned location.
    Windows:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities
    Once downloaded please follow this KB article to use the Tool.

    All of the data should be on your computer, simply sync it back.
    If the update was done via iTunes on the computer, the first step in the process is a backup of the device.

  • How to move all files to the top level folder?

    I want to move all files within a particular folder -- and all files in all sub folders -- to the top level. i.e. I want to collapse the folder structure to just one folder. Assume that there are no files with the same name.
    *Method 1*
    My first thought was to use Find:
    1. Limit Find to the particular folder.
    2. Find all files in the folder with Size > 0.
    3. Switch to List view. All files are listed.
    4. Select all files and drag to the top folder
    5. Delete all sub folders manually.
    Problem: Pages files are not found, and maybe others aren't.
    This is a simple method and I'd like to stick with it.
    *QUES 1*
    What condition should I set within Find so that I can be guaranteed of finding all files?
    *Method 2*
    It was suggested in another thread that I use Terminal to move all files to the top level, but I couldn't get it to work. And there was a problem with files that consist of bundles.
    *QUES 2*
    What is the easiest way to consolidate all files within a folder to the top level -- assume no duplicate names -- and at the same time remove all sub folders?
    Message was edited by: Guy Burns

    Thanks for the suggestion of EasyFind.
    To find all files in a certain folder I typed in *[a-z 0-9] as a Boolean search (this thread won't let me post the exact characters required by EasyFind). That should cover every file I've ever named. EasyFind came back with "11719found/12316done".
    Any idea what the missing 500 files would be? I'm hoping they are files that I don't need to know about (invisible files, system files and so on).

  • How  to read all files  under a folder directory in FTP site

    If you use Chris Poole's XUTL_FTL package, I believe that contains functions that allows you to query the directory contents.

  • How to retrieve all users in the portal with UME API

    Hi everybody,
    I would like to know how to retrieve all the users from a portal, which uses LDAP as a source (there are users created in the portal as well)
    My code snippet is :
    IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
    UserSearchFilter searchFilter = userFactory.getUserSearchFilter();
    searchFilter.setDisplayName("*", ISearchAttribute.LIKE_OPERATOR, false);
    ISearchResult searchResult = userFactory.searchUsers(searchFilter);
    My problem is that with the code above, only the users created in the portal are displayed, and no LDAP users.
    Does someone know how to retrieve all the users whatever is the source?
    Regards
    Renaud

    prakash's code should work.
    however, mine code below doesn't user a search filter. it retrieves everyuser including users like indexadmin etc. Note:
    result.next().toString();
    returns a weird uniqueID used in the portal world.
    getUniqueName()
    gives your the usernames (sAMAccountName in Microsoft AD) people use to logon to the portal.
    try {
      IUserFactory uf = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
      ISearchResult result = uf.getUniqueIDs();
      while (result.hasNext()) {
        String uniqueid = result.next().toString();
        IUser user = uf.getUser(uniqueid);
        String userid = user.getUniqueName();
    } catch(Exception e) {
      //systemout

  • I need to find out how to transfer all the music from my old IPOD to my new IPOD.  Not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES.

    I need to find out how to transfer all my music from my original IPOD nano to my new IPOD nano.   I want to keep both and not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES.  Please help!

    Your music should be in your iTunes library, that is how it gets synced to the iPod. If that music is not present in the iTunes library, you will need to get a 3rd party software for the computer to get the music off the original iPod and then move it to the iTunes library to be able to sync it to the new iPod. You can see some additional information in this tip supplied by a fellow user. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
