Hotmail sub folders using BIS

Hi,
I love BlackBerries. I've always used them at work but I am having trouble setting up Hotmail (or Outlook.com) on my recently acquired BlackBerry Bold 9900 for personal use on BIS.
My service provider says that BIS only supports POP email from Hotmail and as such I only get the Inbox, with no other folders or synchronisation. I am not techy, so I'm not sure I understand this correctly... Gmail works fine.
Is this a core limitation with BB7, BIS and Hotmail? If so, does the Q10 fully fix folders problem with Hotmail? It is critical to have folders from three Hotmail accounts. The iPhone, Android and Windows Phone can definitely do it...
Would appreciate any help before I sell the Bold and spend more money on the Q10.
Thanks in advance.
James

If you only get POP from hotmail then, yes, you'll only get the inbox.
The Q10 does fully support folder synchronization from hotmail and supports it quite nicely, and does it much better than iPhone (haven't tried it on Android or Windows.)

Nokia E6 - sync Hotmail sub-folders

I had the E72, which I loved & was able to sync selected Hotmail account sub-folders & see them listed below the inbox, being able to move emails from the inbox to them, view them, etc.
Now I have the E6 (which I only got because the memory was so much better on it) & am pretty happy with it. After being told to decline the terms & conditions when I set up my Hotmail accounts (as my emails weren't pushing through automatically, so I'm guessing this means I am not using Nokia's messaging to get my emails now), I now get emails within 5 minutes (which I am very happy with) but there doesn't seem to be the option to sync my Hotmail sub-folders in each account, so I only have Inbox, Sent, etc. I didn't see this option when I wasn't getting emails automatically either. I have tried to log onto my Nokia Messaging account too & it's now telling me my username doesn't exist.
Is there a way you can sync Hotmail sub-folders on the E6?
Thanks

If you dont use the exchange mail for other use, try to set up your live.com, hotmail, outlook-account with that...just an idea I think works.
You can then have calender sync, contacts there and emails, perhaps also the folders. Just try it out.

[Mac OSX / JS] How to find images inside sub folders using getFiles?

Hi,
My script uses the variable myFolder to store the path for the images Folder. But when I try to use myFolder.getFiles() to retrieve images that are in sub folders the script fails. The result is null. What can I do to force myFolder.getFiles() to search inside all sub folders?
var myFolder = Folder().selectDlg("Select images Folder");
var myFiles = myFolder.getFiles();
I will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Candido

Hi John,
Thanks for your help.
I'm rushing to my work so I don't have enough time to sort it out at the moment.
If I understand you correctly, it should be something like so:
var files;
var folder = Folder.selectDialog( "Select a folder with images" );
if (folder != null) {
     files = GetImages(folder);
     if (files.length > 0) {
          alert("Found " + files.length + " image files");
     else {
          alert("Found no image files");
function GetImages(theFolder) {
     var imageFiles = [],
     fileList = theFolder.getFiles(),
     i, file;
     for (i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
          file = fileList[i];
          if (file instanceof Folder){
               GetImages(file);
          else if (file instanceof File && file.name.match(/\.(jpg|psd|tiff|pdf|eps)$/i)) {
               imageFiles.push(file);
     return imageFiles;
But it doesn't work.

Dynamically Creating Sub Folders using ECMA

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a a folder and then a sub folder in that and set its Name and Title dynamically. I am able to crate the folder however not the sub folder. Please suggest any technical way.
Thanks,

No worries - I located another thread that provided the answer. I rather think it may be better for me - with the number of folders and sub-folders I have in my Pictures Library - to use the tree facility under Folders in Organizer.

How do I include sub-folders in a Smart Mailbox?

I've set up a Smart Mailbox using the following rules (ALL) :
1. Message is in Mailbox XXXX
2. Subject contains YYYY
3. Contains attachments
But only 3 messages were found! I then realised that although I carefully selected a high-level mailbox (XXXX), it hasn't looked in the large and very complex set of sub-folders.
Obviously, I don't want a smart mailbox for every sub-folder below XXXX. How do I force a Mail Smart Mailbox to look not only in a selected mailbox, but all its sub-folders too?

Never mind. I worked it out for myself.
Step 1. I created a new Smart Mailbox for any messages in mailbox XXXX, and all its lower level sub-folders, using the Match ANY rule.
Message is in Mailbox XXXX
Message is in Mailbox XXXX-AA
Message is in Mailbox XXXX-BB
Message is in Mailbox XXXX-BB-1
(etc)
Step 2. I then recreated the original Smart Mailbox (OP), but this time I stipulated
1. Message is in Mailbox (new Smart Mailbox). Rules 2 and 3 were unchanged.
It meant I had to create two Smart Mailboxes instead of one, and cost me ten minutes extra work, but it works. That's the main thing.

Hi Hemendra,
Thanks for your reply. Actually i am trying to do two things here. First i am creating sub-folders using following code. And then trying to assign individual group permission on these sub-folders using following Powershell script. Now problem is when i am
creating sub-folders, its also inheriting all the parent permission. Lets say i have customer folder name "Pepsi" and it has 4 sub-folders (like Account Management, Legal Drafts, Executed.. etc) . Now i want to assign individual group permission to each Sub-folder
but root folder (Pepsi) should remain all the parent permissions. i did try to remove the permission first and then assigned permission to sub-folders. i was able to assign individual group permission to sub-folders but problem is, its also assigning Limited
Access to the root folder. so basically i cannot see the folder as the root folder has limited access. Please let me know how can achieve that.

Sub-folders and synching from hotmail/windows live mail

Hi there
I have a hotmail account which I use via my home laptop through Windows Live mail. I have various sub-folders in my hotmail which also appear in my Windows Live mail.
Whilst I can access my inbox and sent items from my iphone I cannot see my subfolders which I need to distribute a large amount of mail to.
Can anyone tell me how I can get these folders to appear on my iphone (3 - not sure which OS).
Also, when I delete items from my iphone they do not delete on my hotmail/live mail. Is there a way of addressing this?
Thanks!!

To do what you want, you need the mail account to be set up as IMAP, which syncs the contents of the server with your device. It sounds like yours is set up as POP, which doesn't work that way.
I've lost touch with Hotmail, but I saw this which might help (you'll need to set up a new mail account on the phone to make it work)

Using Office 365 - how to close sub folders in iPhone-mail app.

using Office 365 - how to close sub folders in iPhone-mail app.

Isn't HotMail still POP3 mail only (i.e. no IMAP support)? If that is still the case, then your device is working correctly. The folders you made are a feature of the web tool for hotmail, and are not part of the POP3 supported email protocol. Only IMAP mail supports on-server mail subfolders, and those can be accessed from the iPhone mail client. But POP3 is limited to the inbox solely, as that is literally the only folder that sits on the mail server (your others are on Microsofts web server and supported via the web mail tool).

I have mac version 10.10.1 yosemite.Using LR3. I exported 7 sub folders from LR to an external hard drive in order to free up space on my mac hd.

encountered two problems:
1. instead of seeing the 7 sub folders in the external drive, all the images are out of order, entirely scrambled. when I open LR3 however, the contents of these folders are greyed out and show 0 images. I can see the question mark next to the image saying it is located elsewhere (i.e. on the external hd)If I plug in the external hd I can open the images and edit in CS5, but as I said it 's like finding a needle in the haystack.
2. no new space shows up on my mac hd even though that was the reason I made the export.
is there a way to fix this? I have a different external hd that backs up LR. Currently it is not plugged in. I am afraid to plug it in because it will take the new LR configuration and I'd lose any option to correct the problem. I also , on the same (different) hd I have Time Machine backup. would that help to fix the problem and bring back the organization I previously had with the 7 subfolders. All that organization is currently lost,i.e. show as greyed out 0 content in LR on my mac hd and shows as scrambled on the external hd.
Can I fix this??

zarowin, you want to move the files. Not export them! See here: Move folders around in Lightroom | Adobe Photoshop Lightroom tutorials. There are two ways to do that. One is to move the folders inside Lightroom to your external HD, the other is to move them in the finder and reconnect the folders afterwards using the tips in the link dj linked to above. Also, you really should upgrade your Lightroom. LR 3 is not fully Yosemite compatible. I think the problems are mostly cosmetic though.
Periodically I get a prompt in lr asking if I want to back up lr and I have been consistent about doing so. At this point however, since those out of order images have be “exported” (am I using the right word??) to the second external hd, into a folder without subfolders, (hence the scrambling effect), if I were to plug in the external hd that is my backup drive (for time machine as well as for lr), won’t it be backing up the mistake I made by not using subfolders ongto the other external drive, thereby compounding the problem?
This warning has nothing to do with Time Machine. It is Lightroom's own backup. Every week or so, it will generate a backup Library that you can revert to in the case of trouble. In fact, you can usually safely delete the very old ones but keep them from the last month or so. Look for them in a folder called "Backups" right next to your main catalog file (probably in your Pictures folder). Be sure to only throw away the oldest backups. If you have never done this and have a large catalog with 10's of thousands of images you probably have easily 100 GB of these backups. Just calculate how much space you are wasting if you started doing this around LR 3, several years of backup catalogs at a frequency of once a week, and a typical catalog size of 1.5 GB (my main catalog is over 2GB).
Lastly, Time Machine backup doesn't overwrite older versions. It keeps versions around of all your catalog files (including the backups!).

Dearbhla Bradley

The exception is pretty clear. for some reason the script is not able to open the folder TestFolder1 on the local hard drive.
I noticed in the script you have specified the $Folder variable to be "C:\Users\user\Documents\SharepointTestFolder" while the exception is for "C:\FilePath\TestFolder\TestFolder1"
Will you please help me understand this difference?
Also, sorry I'm not familiar with the "recurse" calling method. I'm suspecting you're telling it to call the ImportFiles() function again, though if this is the case it looks to me that it's reusing the same $Folder variable that was defined at the start,
rather than using the folder object you have just identified.

Solution to using Site Root with Sub-folders on Testing Server & Browser Previews

Hi Everyone
Have found an elegant solution when using Site Root relative linking for a website, that allows browser previews, even when the testing server uses sub-folders and the live code references just the server site root " / " of the live server and not the sub-folder structure of the testing server. This is really useful when you don't want to use document relative linking, which normally takes care of this problem in Dreamweaver.
The solution is to use sub-domains referencing the sub-folders on the testing server, so the sub-folders appear as the root of each website and the html code pointing to the site root works correctly on both testing & live servers without alteration.
Testing Server Setup
One testing server domain is used for all client development work:
For example: www.testingserver.com
On the testing server there are multiple sub-folder (one for each client website being developed):
For example: www.testingserver.com/clientA/ , www.testingserver.com/clientB/ , www.testingserver.com/clientC/
Live Server Setup
The site code needs to be developed with the final live server folder structure (url references) in mind:
For example: www.livesite.com (with all pages referencing the root of the live site server)
Page URLs on Testing & Live Servers
/page-name.html
Testing server url: www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
Live server url: www.livesite.com/page-name.html (without /clientA/ sub-folder)
Browser Previews Don't Work
You want to be able to run browser previews on the testing server while developing the website. To do this you normally have to reference the sub-folder structure of the testing server in the url for things to work right:
For example www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
What do you do, when you can't keep switching all the urls in the code from pointing to the sub-folder to pointing to the site root, and you don't want to use document relative linking?
One Solution - Sub-domains on Testing Server
In your domain hosting (outside of Dreamweaver) setup a sub-domain to point to the testing server sub-folder.
For example: Sub-domain clientA.testingserver.com points to www.testingserver.com/clientA (sub-folder)
So now when you reference the sub-domain it sees the sub-folder as the site root and all your problems are solved.
Dreamweaver Site Definition Setup
Site Definition under "Local Info"
Links relative to: Site Root
Site Definition under "Remote Info" (live server)
Access: FTP
FTP host: ftp.livesite.com
Host directory: /
Site Definition under "Testing Server"
Access: FTP
FTP host: clientA.testingserver.com
Host directory: /
URL prefix: http://clientA.testingserver.com
(location of the site's root folder on the testing server, the sub-domain redirection takes care of pointing to the sub-folder)
This is just one solution but it works well for me as it doesn't have any cost associated with it under our hosting package where you can have multiple sub-domains setup.
Hope this helps someone in a similar situation.
Aly

Just Google it, or run out and buy a copy of David Powers' Foundations Dreamweaver CS4 with CSS, Ajax and PHP, a book that is never out of reach for me. He details the process explicitly for both Mac and PC.
For me, on W7, I edit the C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file, and add the ip of my testing server along with the site alias -
192.168.1.82 site.local
Then I add this same designation to my httpd.conf file in Apache on the testing server. Finally I restart Apache.
Now from my production machine if I browse to "http://site.local", I get to see either the default file in the root of the site on the testing server, or a directory of the site on the testing server (my testing server is a unix box running on my LAN at that ip address). Furthermore, all of my root relative links now work as they would if the pages were being browsed from the live server.

I can´t use folders and sub folders in the screensaver now, whay´s that?

My problem is that since I install OS X Moutain Lion I only can choose one folder and doesn´t give me the option to mark olso sub folders. would you please tell me why you take that option that was so great to use?
thank you

Because Apple doesn't want you to have choices. They also remove many previously installed ones, apparently because they would work well with their retina displays. I restored those. File a bug report with Apple for lost functionality.

Reading sub folders in ifs using the ifs api

hi,
Is there any way i could get all the sub folders under the parent folders ,using the ifs api.
i am able to get the all the folders starting from the root ( parent folders) but i am unable to get the folders under each parent folder.
for example
at my root level i have folders x, y ,z etc..
and under x i have folders a,b,c etc.
i am able to get x,y,z but not able to get the sub folders under x i.e a, b,c folders etc.
Thanks
Arvind

A much more elegant method would be to utilize the oracle.ifs.search package!
You will see in there a Folder Restrict Qualification.
You can set your search class to be Folder.CLASS_NAME

Using sub-folders to create albums on the iphone - bug discovered?

I searched the forum yesterday looking for help on this subject, but couldn't find anything specific to the issue, so pardon me in advance if this has already been discussed...
Photos on my computer are organized this way:
My Pictures
----2010
------03-01-10 Vacation
------04-15-10 pictures of dog
----------dog one
----------dog two
------04-22-10 pictures of kids
(4 layers of folders)
If I choose to sync with the 'My Pictures' folder, and include all sub-folders, I end up with 500 photos in the Photo Library on the phone, and no 'albums'.
If I sync with the folder 04-15-10 pictures of dog, and include all sub-folders, I get two albums labeled dog one, and dog two.
Turns out that if you have more than one layer of sub-folder under the folder that you're syncing with, iTunes sync fails and does not create Albums. It just puts all of the photos as a big blob into the Photo Library.
Solution is to reorganize the folder like this:
My Pictures
----10-03-01 Vacation
----10-04-15 pictures of dog
----10-04-15 pictures of dog one
----10-04-15 pictures of dog two
----10-04-22 pictures of kids
That way, all of the photos are still organized by year, month, day, but I've eliminated two layers of folders. Sync with iphone/ipad, and you're golden.
Hope that helps the next person fighting this problem.
