"Find Finder Items" returns same file twice

Hey y'all,
I'm trying to jerry-rig a photobooth for my wedding. I'm using automator to grab 3 stills from a webcam, and place them all in a folder. When I use "Find Finder Items" to send these images to an action that will rotate them, it finds one of the images twice. That is, the results for "Find Finder Items - where: path whose: name contains 'snap' " will return pictures/path/snap3.tiff, pictures/path/snap1.tiff, pictures/path/snap2.tiff, pictures/path/snap3.tiff. This means that when I send these results to my Rotate 90 Degrees action, Snap3 is rotated 180, and when I send them all into a PDF, I get snap3 twice.
This also happens when I "Find Finder Items" and just look for all the .tiff files in /path, and when use "Get Folder Contents" on /path.
Background: Running 10.5.8 Leopard on a PPC Mac mini. Fairly new to the world of Mac, so I may be missing something obvious.
I've been searching for answers for a day or two now, and haven't come across this sort of issue; I apologize if this is old hat, but I really have made a goodfaith attempt to search these and other forums.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edited to add: The folder only contains the 3 .tiff files, and the PDF I'm trying to dump them into. I thought maybe I was somehow creating a 4th identical file, but it's not the case.

Hello & a warm welcome!
no idea what is happening, other than Apple Software is usually the worst to accomplish thing the way YOU want to.

Sender File Adapter picking the same file twice

We are facing a weird issue with File Sender Adapter
We are using PI File Adapter ( NFS ) to read files for a NFS folder and
processing those in PI.Normally it works fine. But for a scenario we
are noticing it sometimes process the same file twice before archiving,
thus duplicating the financial postings.
What we have is :
File Sender Adapter - NFS, Polling interval 60 secs, and Processign
mdoe Archive. File name includes Wildcards - JE_Upload*.txt
what we are noticing is that :
when it picks up a file, it immediately polls again to check for
another file, and sometimes the file is not yet archived so it picks up
and reprocess the same file.
If you see the message below, both belong to the same file, and it
picked up the same file again in 12 secs after processing it the first
time

Anyone seen this behavior before?

Hi,
Please check the script which creates file in source NFS Folders. There is possibility that script is making change in file when PI is picking up the file.
When PI picks the file first time it creates one message ID in system. After that if script is making any change in file without file name change (This need not necessary data change), for PI it becomes new file and new message gets generated in PI for same file.
This error normally comes when File adapter is not able to archive file succesfully. For eg. file with same name alredy exists in Archive folder.
File adapter generates the new message id whenfile get modified(eg.change in its length or data change) even though
the file name is same and when file get change ,XI file adapter thinks that its new file and hence generate the new message id for same file.
If file has same name and notmodified then XI adapter will not generate new message id and will keep on throw the error till you remove that file with same name from the
archieve directory.

How do I open same file twice in LR into Photoshop

I like to work on the same image in two different windows in photoshop. I like to see different options with editing on two or sometimes open the original image again to apply image to tone down editing. When I click open in photoshop through LR4 it just goes to the file I was working on and doesn't open new copy. How can I open same file twice in raw format? I was able to do this in previous versions and it just listed copy-...in front of the file name.
Thanks so much,
Melissa

Thank you Ian, I am running trials of LR4 and CS6 and yes I am making sure I select the right one when I right click open in photoshop. I did this action all the time in the previous versions. There is not a tab or anything within photoshop. Once the file is already open in photoshop nothing happens. If I close the file then I can open again. I am sure this is simple, but I cannot figure it out. I can open it as a smart object and that's it. In the past, it would list copy-"filename" as the file name opened into photoshop a second time.
Melissa,
In Lightroom there is no such command as 'Open in Photoshop'. The command is 'Edit in Photoshop CSx' (x being whatever version of Ps you have installed). I don't know what it is you're trying to achive and from where you're trying to open the file, but I have tried Edit in CSx muliple times on 3 Mac's and a Windows 7 box in past 10 minutes and it works fine.

Illustrator CS3 opening the same file twice

Hoping someone has an answer for this because I'm stumped.
Just set up CS3 on a new iMac for one of my users, imported her Illustrator files from her hold PC (also running cs3).
When she opens a file its opening the same file twice. When she modifies one, its all being mirrored on the other. When she saves, she has to save both "files" although they're really only 1 file.
Any ideas?

You can open multiple windows looking at the same file. It comes in handy when you're zoomed in, working on some detail and want to see the big picture...
Open a new one by going to the window menu and selecting "new window" This will open a new window with "filename:2" in the title bar.
To get rid of additional windows, just close them. You'll have to save the file to get it to remember that the other windows are closed.

FindByProperty Returns Same Record Twice

I was able to resolve this situation by splitting the ContactNote entity in two: ContactNoteId and ContactNote. I had combined them because it seemed kind of silly to have the id, date, time in the ContactNoteID entity, while the ContactNote entity just had two fields beyond the embedded id.

While loop return same record twice

I have script below returns 2nd row twice
File ID: 2 File Location Drive : D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\MSDBLog.ldf
File ID: 2 File Location Drive : D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\MSDBLog.ldf
it should return result
File ID: 1 File Location Drive : D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\MSDBData.mdf
File ID: 2 File Location Drive : D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\MSDBLog.ldf
Any idea whats wrong?
DECLARE @dbdatafile2 VARCHAR(500), @fileid2 int, @i2 int;
set @i2 = 1
while (@i2 <= 2)
begin
select @fileid2 = file_id, @dbdatafile2 = physical_name from sys.master_files where database_id = 4;
PRINT 'File ID: ' +( CONVERT(VARCHAR, @fileid2))+' File Location Drive : ' + @dbdatafile2 ;
set @i2 = @i2 + 1
end;
GO

select @fileid2 = file_id, @dbdatafile2 = physical_name from sys.master_files where database_id = 4;
If you query this way, you will always get the same (random) file_id; you have to change your query in this way (marked in bold):
set @i2 = 1
while (@i2 <= 2)
begin
select @fileid2 = file_id, @dbdatafile2 = physical_name
from sys.master_files
where database_id = 4
and file_id = @i2;
PRINT 'File ID: ' +( CONVERT(VARCHAR, @fileid2))+' File Location Drive : ' + @dbdatafile2 ;
set @i2 = @i2 + 1
end;
GO

File Adapter does not process the same file twice

SOA: 11.1.1.4 (non-HA).
I have a file adapter that triggers when a new file gets to a directory; the file is not deleted after the process triggers.
The process is supposed to call other services via a mediator and if any remote fault happens it should rollback automatically and re-trigger with the same file at the next polling interval.
I have literally 3 scenarios:
1). The file gets picked up once, the process fails and the file is never picked up again.
Msg in log: The file : /xx/xx/xx/abc.xml is being ignored as it has already been processed
2). If the mediator only routes to one service after the file gets picked up, it works as expect (that is rollback and restart at the next polling interval). If it has more than one sequential routing rule, I see the same error as above.
3). File does not get picked up EVEN if I "touch" or rename the file.
Msg in Log:
File Adapter ProcessName Poller enqueuing file for processing :/xx/xx/xx/abc.xml
File Adapter ProcessName Ignoring File : abc.xml as it is already enqued for processing.
I have already checked, there is no permission issue.
This is what my .jca file looks like:
<adapter-config name="getFile" adapter="File Adapter" wsdlLocation="getFile.wsdl" xmlns="http://platform.integration.oracle/blocks/adapter/fw/metadata">
<connection-factory location="eis/FileAdapter" UIincludeWildcard="*"/>
<endpoint-activation portType="Read_ptt" operation="Read">
<activation-spec className="oracle.tip.adapter.file.inbound.ScalableFileActivationSpec">
<property name="DeleteFile" value="false"/>
<property name="MinimumAge" value="5"/>
<property name="SingleThreadModel" value="true"/>
<property name="PhysicalDirectory" value="/xx/xx"/>
<property name="Recursive" value="false"/>
<property name="PollingFrequency" value="20"/>

<property name="MaxRaiseSize" value="5"/>
<property name="ListSorter" value="oracle.tip.adapter.file.inbound.listing.TimestampSorterAscending"/>
</activation-spec>
</endpoint-activation>
</adapter-config>
Thanks for looking into it in advance.
Any help with the error messages will be appreciated.

You have to use MOVE operation, if there is any remote exception occured, then move the file to someother folder and again move back to the same folder where the file pickup will start.
In that way you will be use the same file picked up next time when the polling happens.

Find command in terminal -- lists files twice

I noticed the other day that after i used the find command to search for some files, the computer listed them twice -- first with just the names of the files (meaning ./(then the individual file names), then with the directory name, followed by the file names (directory name/file name). I was already in the desired directory, and I don't think this has ever happened before. Can someone tell me why it does this and how to fix it? Is there something wrong?
Here's the command I'm using:
find . -iname "*(text to search for)*" -type f
and, if I use find from my home directory (that is, not in the desired subdirectory), it lists ./(subdirectory name)/(subdirectory name)/file names. This is really wierd. Is it supposed to do this?
In case it matters, I also had to reinstall Snow Leopard the other day. I also just shut down the computer and restarted it, but that didn't change anything. Please help!

Never mind --
I feel like such an idiot. I didn't notice that I had put a copy of the directory from my flash drive into the subdirectory -- making it a subdirectory of the subdirectory
DOH!

Export to disk to the same file twice or more

Post Author: Koen
CA Forum: Exporting
Hello,
i am writing an application in vs 2008 en cr 2008.
The purpose of the application is to send offers to the customer throug e-mail.
The report is exported to filename "Offer Nr : 70012.pdf" in the report the name of the customer is changed to his name and then the PDF is send via smtp server.
The first time this works fine, the second time i get an error : The process cannot access the file "Offer Nr : 70012.pdf" because it is being used by another process.
Code :
public void ExportOfferToPDF(String FileName, String EMail, string DocumentId, String ContactId)         {
            DemandeDePrix1.RecordSelectionFormula =                "{vw_print_doc_demande.id} = '" + DocumentId +                "' and {vw_print_doc_demande.ContactId} = '" + ContactId + "'";
            DemandeDePrix1.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.Excel, FileName);

Sounds like you may need to place a delay between the export and the email.If you'd like to achieve the same thing without the need to run the report again and again for each ContactID, consider a 3rd-party tool. See list of such tools at: http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html.My Visual CUT software can do this in a single pass without a need to know the list of group values ahead of time -- they are identified on the fly based on the information in the report.- Ido

I am having a silly problem with Keynote and Pages. When ever i open a file, it opens the same file twice ?

When ever i open a file using key note or pages. The files opens up two times. I the ave to close one version of the file and only then can begin work.
Could you please help me how to get rid of this ?

try routine software maintenance:
1 - shut down the Mac
start up the Mac again with the shift key pressed, release when Mac logo appears, let the Mac boot up it will take longer as it will be repairing the software
2 - Applications > utilities > disc utility > select the system drive > disc first aid > repair permissions
reboot normally and see if that helped

HA File Adapter still processing same file twice

We are using the eis/HAFileAdapterMSSQL to watch for ZIP files that get dropped into a directory. We are running SOA Suite 11.1.1.6 on WebLogic 10.3 with a 2-server cluster. We set our PollingFrequency to 120 seconds.
When our ZIP files are small enough to where our BPEL process (which does some unzipping and merging of files therein) completes within those 120 seconds, everything is fine. One, and only one, node in our cluster processes the file.
But when the ZIP files are large, and our BPEL process takes 30 minutes to complete (i.e. longer than the 120 second polling frequency), we see a new instance of the BPEL process on soa_server1 start as expected, then second process instance start on our soa_server2 instance 120 seconds later.
It's almost as if, if the entire BPEL process - which is kicked off by the HAFileAdapterMSSQL - does not complete within our polling frequency, then the file is not being blocked from other servers in our cluster picking it up and start processing it. Is there a way to "lock" the file with the first instance of the HAFileAdapterMSSQL that picks it up until it's completely finished with it?
Has anyone encountered this?
Thanks,
Michael

You need to define the below property in composite.xml file of your bpel. This will allow only one adapter active and another passive to pick up the file.
<activationAgents>
<activationAgent className="oracle.tip.adapter.fw.agent.jca.JCAActivationAgent" partnerLink="PickupFile/FTPConsumer">
*<property name="clusterGroupId">BPELProcessNameCluster</property>*
<property name="portType">FTP/FileConsumer_Message_ptt</property>
</activationAgent>
</activationAgents>

LR 4.2 wants to import the same files twice

I'm using LR 4.2, Windows 7 Pro.
I notice lately that sometimes when importing new files from a card, previously imported files are sometimes imported again.
I do check "organize my files by date," and after the date folder is created, I typically modify the folder name to add a description. I also rename files on import. I always check "new."
Still, I thought that LR could keep track of this type of stuff. Someone please explain what might be going on.
Thank you,
Robert

Not sure what to say.
It means the error occurred very near the end of the exporting code. I don't suppose you have any Post-Processing defined, do you? (in export dialog box / export preset).
