HELP???Question about the technique RM COPY

Im wondering if anyone can help me. I recently got a reply to a post that I wrote about deleting duplicated files. Mainly MP3s. I have not done this method yet though. Does it work? I have around 9000 mp3s that Itunes seems to always duplicate and I need to get rid of them. Can I open one of my ex-Harddrives that pretty much hold mp3s and run this command? Im looking for a completely faster method than individually deleting them in Itunes. One last question too. Where do I type this command? If anyone can help me Id greatly appreciate it. The reply is below my name

If none of the original filenames contains the lettering " copy", you can do what you want quite easily.
Open Terminal, navigate to the folder that contains the files, and enter the following command (exactly as it appears here):
rm *" copy"*
That's all there is to it. All 9000 duplicate files will be removed very quickly.
If you need help "navigating to the folder" or if some of your original filenames contain the lettering “ copy”, then post back here.

Launch Terminal.app
Type cd followed by a space. Do not hit return key just yet.
In Finder, navigate to folder containing the files you want to blow away.
Drag and drop that folder (in the finder) into the Terminal.app window. It'll autofill the path to the directory containing the files you're wanting to blow away. Now hit the return key.
You could type ls (that's a lower-case ell) and see the directory listing of all the files in your current directory. Probably a good idea to do just to doublecheck that you really are in the directory that you want to blow away all these files from.
Now do what Greg said.
Don't get impatient because Terminal is just sitting there and you're not getting an immediate command prompt. It'll take a while to blow away 9000 files.
For entertainment, instead of rm *" copy"* use rm -v *" copy"* so you can watch all 9000 file names be printed in your terminal window as they are being deleted.
Will it work? Oh yes .... irreversibly (if it doesn't, that's coz' there are some file ownership and/or file permission issues that need to be looked at, but assuming those are "compatible" with your current Terminal user environment, those guys'll be toast. Any file that's in the working directory where you are in Terminal that has the five characters " copy" in its filename will be history.
The assumption in Greg's command is that all the files you want to blow away all reside in the one directory that you have navigated to.

One question about the MouseListener and Copy function.

Hola,
I want my program to activate a method when the user press left mouse button, but in other window, in other program. I can make it with the Listener, but only when the window of my java program is active. I want to my program to listen for pressing a mouse in other window. And my second question is that I want to make the function like copy - the same, if I am in other window. For example if I have marked one fail to generate copy to the clipboard. Is that possible.
Thanks.

Your best bet to listen for activities in other non-Java programs is to use a programming language that gets closer to the OS such as C/C++.
And my second question is that I want to make the function like copy - the same, if I am in other window. For example if I have marked one fail to generate copy to the clipboard. Is that possible.I'm not clear on this. What do you mean by "marked one fail"?

Question about the ability of Genius Bar to help with outside software...

Hi I wasn't sure where to put this, but here's my question. I'm having a problem with the Sims 2 on my Macbook and I was wondering if I go to the Genius Bar will they be able to help me or are they strictly hands off when it's not a direct Apple product?
Also, I bought an external hard drive in the Apple Store but it's not an Apple branded product. If I'm having a problem with that, can I go to the Apple Store?

If it's a question about the installation, system requirements or compatibility with your MacBook, the Mac Genius can probably help. If you're having some kind of issue while using the Sims 2, you'll probably have to contact .
The same is true with the hard drive. If you need some help getting it connected or even formatted, they can probably help. However, if it's not powering up or you're losing files or some kind of operational issue with the hard drive after it's connected, they'll probably refer you to the manufacturer.
Usually Apple can't support other vendors' products. Someone here may be able to give you some more advice, since none of us work for Apple. There may be someone here who's already had the same issue with the Sims.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I want to question about the official service at the service center of Sony.

I want to question about the official service at the service center of Sony.
long since I like the models and items sony. from start playstation, cameras, camcorders up, I've ever had. and a new camera that I bought two years ie compact cameras Sony Cybershot DSC H200. as of a month ago, a camera was having problems in lenses that would not close. and setting the automatic mode to move by itself. I came to the Sony Service Center in Makassar, precisely on Jl. Shop Pengayomann A5 / 05 (0411) 442340.
operator initially said only two weeks to work on my camera. but this week has been more dau even want to go in a month tomorrow, dated July 9, no news from the service center. and I kept the call to the office service. as well as assorted reasons. there are no spare parts or technical constraints, and the last one I call to his office, he said the factory spare part is damaged. imported directly from Singapore. I think, ko new spare part it can be damaged before using that? how the quality of this Sony spare part? ugly? not good? why?
I was disappointed with this situation, where soon it will Eid, want to return home as well to Java. but the camera has not been settled workmanship?
nah, roughly what is the solution of the Sony plagued with this problem? please help, because he did not know to whom to complain. operator had just said: it's up to the father alone.
once again I asked for his help. solution. if you can before Eid arrived.
Thank you,

Question about the notification center (Mails and Reminders)

Hello together,
I just started using Mountain Lion and now I have some few questions about the notification center.
1. Is it possible to show all reminds in the notification center? I have a lot of reminds without an date / time and they don't appear in the notification center.
2. Is it possible to show the last five Mails in the notification center? I'm just seeing new incoming mails, but I would prefer it, if I could see the last five mails
     (no matter if readed or unreaded).
Thank you very much for you help.

Hallo zusammen,
ich habe gerade damit begonnen Mountain Lion zu verweden und habe einige Fragen zur Mitteilungszentrale.
1. Ist es möglich alle Erinnerungen in der Zentrale anzuzeigen? Ich habe viele Erinnerungen, die ohne Datum / Uhrzeit sind und in der Mitteilungszentrale
     daher nicht auftauchen.
2. Ist es möglich, sich die letzten fünf Mails in der Zentrale anzeigen zu lassen? Ich sehe nur neue ungelesene Mails, würde es aber vorziehen die letzten
     fünf Mails sehen zu können (egal ob gelesen oder ungelesen.)
Danke für eure Hilfe.

Only reminders with dates appear in the notification center - undated ones don't. Once an email has been read, it is removed from the notification center. Apple has a feedback center where you can offer suggestions.

Some question about the renegotiation function in SRM Contract (GOA)

Hi All Expert,
We are on SRM 5/4.6, there is a question about the renegotiation function in SRM GOA.
Can we renegotiate the price for some parts in the GOA items with this function ( e.g. Only renegotiate one item in the contract) ?
Will the item price updated automatically after the renegotiation?
Many thanks in advance!!!

Hi Sanjeev,
Many thanks for your help.
One more question, if I add a new item when we renegotiation, will it be transfered to contract and create a new item after that?
Thanks and best regards

Dear Customer Service Team,
I bought a twelve-month Dreamweaver CC program with monthly payment that I have paid via bank transfer and there would be a question about the activation. How could I get the license key with which I can activate my account? I can not find it and now I only have access to the trial version.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Kind Regards,

There is no serial number require for Creative Cloud products, you may activate the products using your email address and password which is associated with Adobe. If your Dreamweaver asking for serial number, then make sure you are signing in with correct email address.

This is a two part question about the creative 16gb Zen?

8This is a two part question about the creative 6gb Zen? First of all, my battery life dropped very suddenly. One charge I was getting the full 30 hour battery life and the next it dropped to under ten. I tried using their tips on how to extend the battery life and I am still getting less than 0 hours of battery life. Why would it dropped more than half the amount between charges? I tried recharging it after it ran out and still the same thing. Any help?
Second, (I am adding this question because it might relate to the first in some way) my mp3 player has been behaving strangely lately. For example, some artists sometimes have letters removed or all but the first end up being removed. But, if you reset the player, the artists go back to the full name. Also, my player has been taking a little longer than usual to turn on. It takes about 30 seconds to turn on instead of the 5-0 that I'm used to. Does anyone know why this might be happening?
My Zen is only 4 months old, and I would be very upset it it's breaking already. Please, if you have any suggestions on how I can fix what's happening, post them. (Even if they?probably won't work, they're worth a try.)

< This is an unusual one; never heard of it before. All I can suggest is cleaning up and perhaps reflashing the firmware. If it still is doing this, then get the thing exchanged pronto.
My guess is that the problems are indeed closely related.

Question about the order to creating Account, Contact, Contact Role

Hi, my friends,
I have some questions about the order of creating Account, Contact, Contact Role, etc in Web Service 1.0. I could create them in the following case:
1. Insert Contact object and get contactId (now new contact exists in CRMOD)
2. Insert Account object with Contact Role child associated with contactId
My questions are:
1. Do we have the following order? Insert new Account with new Contact child and Contact Role child (Contact is new and does not exist in CRMOD).
2. Looks like system need accountId, contactId, etc to make the objects relationship. Is there other field having the same function?
Thanks
Ray

Hi Ray,
In response to your questions:
1. Do we have the following order? Insert new Account with new Contact child and Contact Role child (Contact is new and does not exist in CRMOD).No. Both the Account and Contact must already exist. The Role value is an attribute on the Account Contact relationship, this relationship must exist in order to assign a role value to it. This is consistent with the behaviour of the UI, when you press the New button on the Contact child applet, you are taken to the Contact New page where you can create a Contact record. Once you save, the relationship is created but you cannot assign a role value unless you click the Edit Roles link next to the new Contact.
2. Looks like system need accountId, contactId, etc to make the objects relationship. Is there other field having the same function?Correct, the system needs to know which Account/Contact pair is being assigned a role value. To do this the Account and Contact values must be uniquely identified using the Id values for each.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sean

Question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)

Dear everyone
Could I ask you a question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)?
I was asked if it's possible to create a report which compares the data between different SAP systems (both production systems).
Now, the easiest way would be to use the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) within a SAP infoset query (SQ01 type query).
But I heard the rumor that using the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) is not advisable due to the security reason.
However, I am not exactly sure what sort of security problems this function module can possibly have...
Would you help me on this?
I also would like to know if using "remote enabled module" type function module can always overcome this possible security issue.
Or, are there any points that I need to be careful about even when I use "remote enabled module" function module?
Thank you very much in advance.
Takashi

Dear Fred-san
Thank you very much for your support on this.
But, may I double check about what you mentioned above?
So, what you were mentioning was that if some user executes the query with
the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE), under the following conditions, he can access to
the HR data even when he does not have the authorizations for HR transactions?
<Conditions>
1. the user has the authorization for HR database tables themselves
2. RFC_READ_TABLE is called to retrieve the data from HR database
<example>
Data: LF_HR_TABLE like DD02L-TABNAME value 'PA0000'.
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_READ_TABLE'
   EXPORTING
    query_table                = LF_HR_TABLE
TABLES
   OPTIONS                    =
   fields                     =
   data                       =    .
But then, as long as we call this function module for a non-critical tables such as
VBAP (sales order) or EKKO (purchase order) within our query, it wouldn't seem to be
so security risk to use RFC_READ_TABLE...
Besides, each query (infoset query) has got the concept of user groups, which limits
the access to the queries within the user group.
※If someone does not belong to the user group, he cannot execute the queries within that
   user group, etc
So, my feeling is that even infoset queries does have authorization concept...
Would you give me your thought on this?
I also thank you for your information for SCU0.
That is an interesting transaction
Kind regards,
Takashi

Muvo V200, question about the play m

Hello,I have a question about the play mode on my V200. I want to play the songs in a specific order (like in a playlist) but I don't find the way to do this. Can you help me please ?
Thanks
(sorry if I don't speak english very well, but I'm french )

Hi!
To get the tracks to play in a specific order, put numbers at the beginning of each file name. E.g.: file 'examplesong.mp3' would become '0_ examplesong.mp3' Don't spend years doing that manually though; the computer will do it for you! Click on 'my computer', then click on 'Muvo V200 media explorer'.. This shows the contents of your player. Choose the folder that you want to reorder the songs in...
( it's best to put the songs in folders, like you would in a floppy disk, as the muvo can only hold a certain amount in the root directory, and folders are great for organisation - eg: you can put one CD in each folder, and then the player will play all of the tracks in that folder before moving on to the next one )
...and click on it to display the songs. In the pictures along the top of the window, 4th from the right is an icon with a downward facing arrow and an A above a Z. Click on this, it's called 'custom sort'. You can then use the arrows at the bottom to change the order of your tracks to how you want them. Click OK, and they'll all be numbered (and so will play) in that order.
Hope that helps!

Question about the animated Pen tool

Hi,
ive a question about the animated pen-tool.
i draw a word, but my hand isnt very calm, so the result is what you see on the screenshot.
Is there a possibility to reduce the points on the animated pen tool like in illustrator?
i know in illustrator its possible, but i didnt found anything in after effects to do it.
thanks for your help

If you are using the Paint tools those options don't exist in After Effects. The only work around is to set a keyframe for the brush path, copy the keyframe, then go to Illustrator and in a blank document the same size as your layer paste. Once in Illustrator you can simplify the path, select it, copy it, then go back to After Effects and select the same keyframe then paste. If you get a mask instead of a new path delete the mask path, make sure you have only the original brush path keyframe selected, then go to Edit>Paste from the menu.
It doesn't look like you're drawing a mask path. That might be a better way to go.

I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty?

I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty? I want to know if the 3 year extended warranty covers what damage. Like water damage, accidental damage, lost or stolen macbook, manufactory defects, or any other kind of damage, maybe be even cosmetic damage. Can anyone help me?

If you are talking about features of the MBP itself, as long as you are not looking at the Retina models, then the memory you can upgrade yourself for a lot less than Apple charges, and that does not affect the warranty as Apple considers memory a user permitted upgrade. Great sources are Crucial and OWC, both are Mac specialists and have on-line videos on how to do the install.
If the 15" is what you are looking at, a good upgrade is the 7200 rpm hard drive, gives a little better performance over the standard 5400 rpm drive.
The Hi Res screen is good if you do a lot of graphics work.
Comparing the 13" amd 15" you will notice the 15" has a second, discrete graphic processor...helps when you get into heavy duty videos, games, graphics...but keep in mind that kicking in the second processor uses a lot of power and will run the battery down faster.
If you are looking at the Retina models, then keep in mind there are no post-purchase upgrade options...you have to buy with everything you want at the start.
Just some thoughts.
