Hide files from the "all my files"

hello,
i have certain photos and videos which i do not want to be shown in the "all my files" folder, how to do i hide these specific files?
can i make a rule for that folder not to include files which are located in a specific path?

Not certain, but try adding the enclosing folder to the Privacy tab of Spotlight.
You can't set a criteria such as, "not in folder X" as that criteria isn't implemented.

  • Hide music from the All my Files tab

    I've been consolidating files, deleting and generally clearing up my iMac.
    In the All My Files tab in Finder i was wondering if there was a way to hide all the music that I have consolidated in iTunes.
    Like the same affect iPhoto has. If a photo is in iPhoto it won't appear but if it's on my computer elsewhere then it will show up in the All My Files tab.
    I don't want to see it, I'd prefer to see music that isn't in my library so I know what to copy in.
    Thanks.

  • How do I remove updates from the "all updates" list?

    Hello, say I have been getting updates for Windows 7, and I fully migrated to Windows 8, how do I get to remove the updates for Windows 7 from the "All Updates" list within WSUS? I have tried de-selecting the Windows 7 product from the p roducts
    and classification option, and I have tried runing the clean-up wizard, but they are not getting removed. Deleting the database and reinstalling WSUS can't be the only option....

    Uh... no... they weren't. No such concept exists. However, if you have an Automatic Approval rule configured on your WSUS server, that could account for such an action.
    And all of that is aside from why these updates were imported from the Online Catalog in the first place, and not just synchronized normally like other updates.
    What do you mean no such concept exist? They were approved by an admin, no one said anything about getting them imported, you are assuming these things, and normal sync was conducted.
    Okay, let's clear up some logical impossibilities here. If the Server Cleanup Wizard deleted files, then the updates were DECLINED. Then the downstream servers WILL synchronize those declines, and the updates will be DECLINED
    on the downstream servers.
    Yes, that is theoretically how it’s supposed to work, but it does not, for example, my upstream server is showing 223 updates for FEP 2010, but my downstream server is showing 239 updates out of which 21 are invalid software updates.
    This statement is logically inconsistent on a number of levels:
    First, as noted, if the files were deleted, then the updates were declined on the upstream server, so they should now be declined on the downstream server.
    Second, I have no idea what you mean by "red X representing an invalid software update". I'm not familiar with any such icon. Can you provide a screenshot?
    Third, the servers are not "still getting the metadata". They get it ONCE. The day it arrives in the environment. After that, it's there FOREVER... unless deleted by the Server Cleanup Wizard.
    As I already explained, theoretically the files should be synced up, but they don't and when I say that they are represented by a red X I am referring to the Microsoft's Technical Reference for the Icons Used for Software Updates which you can find here
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh848254.aspx
    So here is the thing, you are saying that the metadata is there forever, but is it? I mean if the server cleanup gets rid of it that means it’s not there forever, right? Maybe I am missing something? As a side note, I did run the server cleanup wizard, and
    it did not remove it since the icons with the red X's are still there...
    So first question: Have you used the Server Cleanup Wizard on the downstream servers?
    Yes, and it did not help. I am still seeing bad updates, as these ones for example –
    Not possible, except by declining the update on the upstream server. Which should have already replicated.
    Declining updates does not help me in this scenario for postdated KB's, only for the ones going forward.
    I'll still need to figure out what you're talking about here, as I have absolutely no idea about these indicators.
    Please refer to Microsoft's reference -

    No, actually. :-//

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Is there a way to hide them so that my kids will never see them when looking for new apps?

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

  • Is there a way to hide users from the FileVault 2 ''main boot'' login screen?

    After your entire disk is encrypted with FileVault 2, there is a now a ''main'' boot login screen with users displayed--after a full shutdown/restart--as opposed to a ''normal'' login screen when logging users in and out after booting into FileVault 2.
    If that made any sense...there was a way to hide users from the ''normal'' login screen before by running this Terminal command:
    sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow \ HiddenUsersList -array-add xxxx
    (xxxx being a short user's name)
    How do I do this now for the login screen that comes up on a full/shutdown restart?

    Not really, but you can move them from the home screen to, say, the 4th, or 10th screens. But you do need to have at least one app in every screen on the phone. My idea was to have several blanks before the screen with her apps, but the phone doesn't allow this.
    Sounds like time for the Iron Fist. ::grin:: Putting your foot down. Funny how those two descriptions don't quite match up. Our 5 year old son loves to use the iPhone, and with consistent training we have minimal trouble when he doesn't want to quit.

    After hiding them on your Mac's iTunes try logging out of your account on your phone and then log back into it.

  • Hide ringtones from the Music Player [S60]

    Tired of having your ringtones listed and played together with your music? Here's how you can hide the tones from the Music Player. This is applicable for Symbian phones only (N82, N95, etc.).
    WARNING: The advise below involves changing folder attributes and using tools that might easily harm the file system of your phone! If unsure that you can handle the steps, better leave the ringtones be.
    Note: Following the advise below will also hide the folder/files from the build-in File Manager.
    To prevent a file or folder with ringtones from being listed in the MP3 player:
    1. Get yourself a file manager that allows you to change file/folder attributes. Y-Browser will do the job - http://www.drjukka.com
    2. Create a separate folder and place in it all the ringtones and melodies you want to hide from the player. I recommend using the memory card - this will help you repair the file system in case something goes wrong.
    3. Open the file manager from Step 1 (not the build-in File Manager) and navigate to the folder from Step 2.
    4. Change the attributes of the folder to 'System'. For Y-Browser highlight the folder and choose Options -> Attributes then set 'System' to 'Yes' and press Save.
    5. Exit the file manager and refresh the library of the Music Player. Now the folder/files are not shown in the Music Player/File Manager but are still listed on music file selection dialogs (like 'Ringing tone' option in Contacts).
    You can also hide single files by setting their attributes to 'System'. I do not recommend this, though.
    Please, have in mind that reverting the folder to non-system might not be possible (N82 + Y-Browser 0.88, for example). If this happens you need to move the files to another folder and then delete and recreate the folder. If you have set up the folder/files on the memory card, use a card reader or 'Mass storage' mode to connect to the computer and reset the attributes from there.

  • Hide Dashboard from the Drop Down list - OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1

    Hi,
    We have got an Index page, which contains links to all Dashboard the user is allowed to see and it is the home page for every user. Apart from that user's can select Dashboard from the drop down list. Is it possible to hide some of the dashboards from the drop down list but still users should continue accessing them from Index page?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    For showing the Dashboards as a drop down list I believe you are using HTML code. If so edit the HTML to remove the dashboards you do not want to see in the drop down.
    If the drop down is because of excessive pages shown on the dashboard then under the dashboard properties you can select the hide option for the dashboard. So by default the dashboard page would not show up and the index links would show.
    Let me know if this helped.
    Regards,
    Jay

  • How do I delete or hide purchases from the App Store on my iPad?

    I can't seem to delete certain things in my App Store purchase that I want gone

    You cannot delete Apps from the Purchased list.  you can however hide them.
    You can only do this from iTunes on a computer, it cannot be done on your iPad.  It doesn't need to be your own computer. You can borrow one with iTunes and login with your account.

  • Is it possible to still hide Workbooks from the Windows Taskbar in Excel 2013

    Because of the introduction of the SDI in Excel 2013 it is no longer possible to select the option to NOT display workbooks in the Taskbar.
    This causes a major problem with Excel Applications written in VB or VBA which have multiple workbooks open for various reasons but only wanting the user to have access to one workbook at a time.
    Is it possible to still hide these workbooks from the taskbar?
    I did request in beta to still have the Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar still available via VBA, switching to FALSE  for the life of the Excel instant...but that would have been too easy...
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Steve
    Steve Stretch

    Thanks Jaynet,
    Yes, this is what I also worked out. However hiding the workbook via the .visible = FALSE means you can then no longer reference cells or worksheets via the ActiveCell or ActiveWorkbook objects, which meant a massive re-write to my application. For the benefit
    of other developers I then needed to reference my 'Active' Objects via the Set myActiveWorksheet = anActiveWorkSheet.
    BTW I have given up suggesting things to Microsoft during any beta releases as they have never taken up any suggestions I have ever made in 13 years of receiving Beta's. My software is the biggest Excel Automation program in the world (I suspect) with over
    20 meg of VBA Code. Don't tell me that implementing a simple request of allowing  Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar
    was beyond Microsoft's ability. Application.EnableEvents lasts for the duration of the Excel instant, this could have behaved in exactly the same way.
    Unfortunately Microsoft's agenda is to no longer satisfy the customer but the shareholders...I could go on....
    Thanks

  • I have an iPhone 4 and I am wondering how I remove emails from the "All Mail" .  I have over 8,000 emails and want to free up storage but it will take forever to delete them 1 at a time!  Help!

    Is there a way to remove emails from the Exchange Account "All Mail"?  I have over 8 thousand emails and want to clear them out.  It looks as though I have to delete them one by one!

    Since it's an Exchange account, it sounds like the way to do this would be to remove them using a computer.

  • How do I hide names from the Address fields?

    here's the problem.
    a group of peers is exchanging emails using the Reply All function. the catch? we need to keep our names out of the Address Fields. if I enter my friend's name into Address Book, Mail insists on showing the full name in the Address Field.
    is there any way to insert only the email address without the name of the recipient in the Address Fields? even when selected from the Address Book, or entered via a Group selection?
    BCC is not an option. De-selecting "When sending to a group, show all member addresses" is also not an option, because I would assume that recipients will not be able to Reply All.
    I tried entering an alias into the Email field in Address book: Alias <[email protected]>.
    any ideas?
    cheers,
    Gregory

    you can uncheck the option to auto complete addresses in Mail preferences->composing. then you can enter the addresses by hand without full names. the addresses will still show of course. or you can create double vcards for people in question in address book that have just email addresses but no names. then Mail will let you choose those.
