Help with shell script: Find Recently Modified Directories

I'm trying to do something that appears to be beyond my capacity to figure out on my own. I'm hoping that someone more skilled than I at scripting can help.
Challenge
I'm trying to build a script that finds directories and gzips each individually, but only if they've been modified within the last, say, 7 days.
Context
The idea is to create a set of gzipped directories that can then be uploaded to a remote server for backup and archival purposes. Since the parent directory is 8+ GB in size, and 99% of the contents does not change from week to week, I want to identify, zip, and upload only the directories that have been modified recently. (Uploading is outside the scope of this script).
*Cut to the Chase*
In plain english, my script might look like:
1) find sub-folders contained within "~/Sites/" that have been modified within the last 7 days; do not go more than 1 level deep (i.e., return only the top level folders within ~/Sites/)
2) loop through the returned list and gzip each directory
I'm hoping that this can be done easily. Automator doesn't provide filters that are granular enough to do this, so I'm thinking bash is the way to go. Any help would be most appreciated, and will be rewarded with all kinds of good karma. =)
-Steve

OK, here is an untested and possibly syntactically incorrect Perl script:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $siteDir = "$ENV{HOME}/Sites";
# Get all the top-level contents of the Sites directory.
opendir(SITES, $siteDir) or die "Couldn't open $siteDir folder.
my @siteContents = readdir SITES;
closedir SITES;
# Reset my script startup time to be 7 days ago.
$^T = time - (6060*247);
# Now find all the modified directories since then.
my @modifiedSiteDirs = grep { -d "$siteDir/$_" and -M "$siteDir/$_" < 7 } @siteDirs;
foreach my $modifiedSiteDir (@modifiedSiteDirs)
system qq{tar zcf "$modifiedSiteDir.tar.gz" $modifiedSiteDir};
Actually, I did just test it with only a printout instead of executing tar and it works. I'm not sure of the path to tar on MacOS X. You may have to add that.

Spot color used in indesign document

Hi all,
How to find spot color used (text, frame and any othe item) in Indesign document.
Please help me to write javascript code.
thanks,
mon

'unusedSwatches' -- sure. Removing these will leave just the used ones (something like that was asked a while ago). But it seems the OP wants to know where the remaining ones are in use.
Graphic objects can be tested per Loic's script, but each and every single table cell fill and stroke needs to be checked, and for text I can't think of anything else than explicitly searching for fill & stroke.
The OP needs to 'find' spot color usages, which is rather unclear in the context of a script. Find it -- and then what? Report? Highlight/select? (Which doesn't work when more than a single occurence is found.) Change to another color?

HT5022 I'm trying to add a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version. I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility.. Help!

I'm trying to add my HP wireless printer as a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version. I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility.. Help!

Why would you need to ADD a new Client. Unless the APE sytem is completely different then any other Wireless router the printer should get an IP address from the router. That is IF the printer is setup to get an IP from the LAN DHCP server.
Now you may want to make that IP it does get a Staticly assign IP address so it never changes, which will screw up printing if it does change. But i don't know if you can do that with APE routers.

I am new to scripting & I need Script for Document color mode

Hi,
Please help me to create a script which should find the Document color mode. I am new to scripting. And please let me know how to use the same.
Balaji

Are you using the Extendscript Toolkit Editor (ESTK)? In the Help menu you can find all the properties for Document that can be queried/changed.
(Personally, I don't use ESTK, because I really really hate it. But I don't want to miss the Help, so I made my own version. I have Illustrator CS4, and it's possible your version doesn't have this, but under Document I find:
documentColorSpace
DocumentColorSpace:
DocumentColorSpace.RGB
DocumentColorSpace.CMYK
readonly
The color space used for the document.
For the how-to-use I glady refer you to Adobe's own Starting With Scripting guides.)

Where can I find information about using the Mozilla Help web pages?

Such as tips to make searching the help pages faster like adding symbols + or - or " which some internet search systems use.
There is simply too much information offered for me ( a neurologically disabled person - specifically with working memory difficulties [dyslexia, dyspraxia/DCD] ) and all one can do is write yet another new question - which will probably be a repeat of what has been asked before in a different way and increase the already existing mass of information for the next enquirer to 'wade; through!
The consequence of not knowing where to look for information, is that I just bumble along and never become as proficient using Firefox (and the web and my computer) as might be possible if I had a really good teacher giving personal one to one guidance matching my knowledge gained so far and skill potential.

Hi Andrew
The main introduction to Firefox are these articles

m1doc,
Are you migrating from a Mac or a MS Window machine? Either way you probably should be in touch with AppleCare, you have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support.

My Illustrator does not allow me to change colors using swatches panel. Help pleas.

Few days ago I started having strange problems with my Illustrator CS5 application. I am using MacBook Pro with Intel Processor. After major update on the Mac OS few days ago I noticed I can not change colors in my drawings using swatches panel. The function on my Illustrator CS5 stopped working. When I select object and try to change its fill or stroke color using fill and stroke from the options bar above work space, none of the swatches would work. The are there how ever nothing hapends when I select them, the color remains the same.The same thing happens if I try to use the swatch panel, I select the object then I try to select new color from swatch but the fill or stroke does not change. I can only change color on my drawings using the color panel but that is not useful for me since I need to get precise colors using approved color swatches ether from pantone library or approved by client.
The other strange thing is my selection tool does not deselect when I click outside on or of the artboard, the object remains selected until I reselect another object or use the keyboard short cut to deselect it.
I have tried various options to resolve the issue from deleting and reseting preference to completely uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator CS5. I even installed back my old CS4 version because I had to complete a project and the same issue is happens there as well. I also reset the application using Time Machine from few months ago when it was working correctly. What happens when I reset or reinstall the app, it works for about 10 min correctly as it should and and then it reverts to the same problem. I am out of options and do not know what else I could do to fix this. Right now I am working on my old Mac tower G5 and CS4 where everything works as it is suppose to, but I really need to get this fixed. Can any one help or has solution for my problem? Please.

Please help. Photoshop isn't displaying colors correctly after new monitor/calibration

When I open JPEGS or RAW images in photoshop they have a dull, flat color to them. This is happening after recently buying a NEW PA271W wide-gamut display and calibrating it using Spectraview 2. It doesn't matter whether I have the Working Space in PS set to Adobe RGB or sRGB under color settings... The only way I can make my image look normal is to go under settings and ASSIGN PROFILE to Adobe RGB. It looks fine then. I could live with that, except the bigger problem is that I begin my editing process in RAW, where the colors are also looking flat. The best I can tell, there is no way to assign a profile at this stage... and I don't even know if that would help.
I've been working in photoshop many years and I do know that RAW images have a 'flatter' appearance to being with, but this is something completely different. For example, when I slide photoshop onto my other monitor next to it (I have multiple monitors) - the color reverts to the normal color I want . And if I then slide photoshop back onto my new NEC monitor, the normal color actually stays intact for about two seconds, then reverts back to the dull color. So I am unable to begin my work process in RAW since the colors are wrong. Also, I know that my new monitor is capbable of displaying my images in their proper colors because when I use any of several different image viewers I have - irfanview, etc. - everything is fine. It's only in photoshop. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chance. Oh, and I have CS5 and I'm using Windows 7.

What you're describing sounds like your display profile is incorrect.
Don't mess with the working space, don't assign profiles -- just fix the display profile.

That's probably not a good idea to try to share apps since you will have to switch ID's each time you update apps and sync apps from iTunes.
And technically - according to Apple's terms - you cannot share apps using different ID's. You can actually lock yourself out of an ID for 90 days if you switch ID's and if you associate the iPad with another ID.
The bold type is a copy and paste from the site that I referenced below.
When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.

I can't find the color I used

Some time ago I made website buttons. I now need to change the text on top of one of the buttons, but I can't figure out the exact color I used. The dropper does not pick the original shade. It seems to be off. The button was rasterized and saved as a JPEG. The original PSD file is gone. I hope I don't have to redo 11 buttons just because I can't find the original color. Can anyone help?
I attached a copy of the button. It is the blue color on top and not the rollover color I need to find.

The problem comes from the fact that the text is small and there's a lot of JPG artifacting. Even if you find the original color, it will still look off compared to the other buttons while in Photoshop because of the lack of JPG artifacting. You'll likely have to preview the colors using File->Save for Web & Devices set to JPG and a low quality setting.

Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the page that opens.
Select the System keychain in the list of keychains in the sidebar of the window. If you don't see the list, click the down-arrow icon below the sidebar.
Then select Passwords in the Category list at lower left. Click the Kind heading in the list of keychain items to arrange it by Kind.
Locate the AirPort Disk Password with the name of your Time Capsule. Double-click the item and check the box marked Show Password in the inspector window that opens. You'll be prompted for the administrator login password. Make a note of the AirPort password, then close the inspector window and delete the item.
Also delete any other AirPort DIsk Password items for that same Time Capsule, which may have had a different name in the past.
Quit Keychain Access and try again to back up.
