How can a do a simple Batch convert?

Page 248 of the manual explains how to make Applescript droplets for batch processing:
You can also drag files or folders onto a droplet, making it easy to batch process files.
Great! I opened a single file in the Audio editor, applied my actions, and saved the result as AppleScript via File > Save as Applescript.
I drag and drop a few files to this app, and it processes, but then it asks me to save somewhere. This is understandable, since when performing the actions I didn't specify a save location, but I can't figure out where to specify this for when performing the steps or ultimately creating the Applescript. It's also annoying, because I don't want to have to do this for hundreds of files!
But it's a moot point - the Applescript app hangs and never does anything with the subsequent files. It only processes the first of the group.
What am I doing wrong here?
... going to try using Compressor... but it won't boot... again.

Compressor worked once I reinstalled it. Soundtrack Pro ought to be able to do this, or even send to compressor.
Crazy thought, the Soundtrack Pro manual should mention that you can use Compressor instead of providing instructions that don't really work.

  • How can I use Automator to batch convert files of various formats into pdf files?

    I am very much a novice.  I need to convert approximately 10,000 documents into pdf format.  (No, I'm not exaggerating.)  I have searched and found various Applescripts that will do it for Word documents, but have even been unsuccessful using those.  Each of my attempts ends up with some sort of error.
    The documents are in mixed formats:  Excel, Word, PowerPoint, OpenOffice (.odt), and .jpeg,   I even have some Clarisworks/Appleworks files, but those I'm happy to deal with separately if need be.

  • How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    Hi mariab,
    What format are those music scores (I'm not familiar with cubase documents). But, it may be that Adobe PDF Pack doesn't support that format. In that case, Acrobat is the way to go. You can then print your files to PDF as you'd like. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days to see whether it's going to work for you. If you decide it is, and you'd like to use it going forward, you could convert your PDF Pack subscription into an Acrobat subscription.
    Best,

  • How can I PRINT a simple list (e.g., .txt or .doc) of my bookmarks?

    How can I PRINT a simple list (.txt or .doc) of my bookmarks?

    You can export your bookmarks to an HTML file by going to Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks. From that window select Import/Export and then Export HTML...
    See [[Exporting bookmarks to an HTML file]].
    Once you have that file, open it in Firefox or a text editor and print from there.

  • How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

    How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

    Use only formatting that is supported (in the same manner) in both applications. You'll need to find which that is through trial and error. Beyond those formatting options, you'll need to do some corrections, as Fruhulda suggests.

  • How can I completely uninstall Simple Pass Data file? where is data file kept?

    Computer came with Simple Pass finger print reader.  Won't let me program Windows log on unless I enter Windows log on password.  I DO but it says "incorrect from what was originally password."
     I don't know what that would be, (tried all old passwords)  so I want to ERASE ALL RETAINED DATA and reinstall.  
    ADD/REMOVE program removes program but data retained.  Then deleted Validity Sensor under Biometric devices so all data should be gone but upon reinstall it still says i have wrong password!
    Where else is this data kept on computer and how can i remove so I can fix program?
    Anyone familiar with Simplepass or recommend another fingerprint program that would work with HP Envy?
    Thanks in advance.

    Frank,
    Updating the OS to Windows 8.1 does destroy the Recovery Manager -- side "benefit" that seems to go unmentioned by some of the enthusiasts of Upgrades.  On the other hand, unless the system comes with 8.1 there is little you can do -- Windows 8 is rather sad.    You have the choice of a weird hybrid "almost" Windows 8.1 or running Windows 8.  Eeeew.  I chose the upgrade on the one Windows 8 system I have -- same level of frustration but at least the problems are different than running sad Windows 8.  Smiling.
    Because you know your system runs Windows 8.1 -- and there are apparently the Drivers at your system's HP Support pages for Windows 8.1 (very important), you might consider purchasing Windows 8.1 Pro and being done with the hybrid upgrade OS.  You still lose the Recovery Manager, of course, purchased 8.1 does not provide the HP Recovery Manager -- but at least the OS is stable.   You still install the HP drivers from the computer's Support site, of course.  I actually purchased 8.1 for my upgrade system and have only been too lazy to install it.  Sigh.
    You can use third party Image software to back up the system.  Certainly not the only one, and maybe not even the best according to whom you ask -- one such tool: 
    Redo software is free and is NOT Windows dependent. 
    The software can be used with Both Windows and Linux Operating Systems.

  • How can I set h.264 to convert quicktime for itouch 16x9 (480x320)?

    Nabil -
    Your standalone client needs to obtain certain server-dependent properties. You can provide them in your code or grab them via a properties file.
    For Orion - you need essentially the following setup, filling in your own information...
    Define your standalone client class with "main" etc (this is orion specific - should work for 9i AS as well - perhaps there are some differences)
    public class SomeClass {
    try {
    Properties p = new Properties();
    p.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial",
    "com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory");
    p.setProperty("java.naming.security.principal","server_admin_name");
    p.setProperty("java.naming.security.credentials","server_password");
    // THEN you can get your intitial context reference
    InitialContext initial = new InitialContext (p);...........
    Then go about your business.....
    A good book to get is called "Professional Java Server Programming J2EE Edition" - there happens to be a reasonable amount of Orion/OCJ4 centric information since one of the authors is Karl Avedal - one of the principals behind Orion. Go out to java.sun.com and look at some of the J2EE tutorials - unfortunately a lot of it is hidden behind the J2EE Deployer, but you will get a good sense of what goes into outside-the-container standalone clients.

    If you want to see traffic without being in the middle (the requests go direct) then you can not use the standard Java API. And do so in any situation of course requires that you be in the physical connection in the first place (ie in a star network with a router in the middle a client machine will not see packets from other machines.)

    Hi Kuya,
    Why not using Alert management if you are in SRM 5.0 :
    Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Event and Event Schema for Alert Management ->....
    You should have a look here, you may be able to define event for document status.
    For more information on Alert Management, see the SAP Library (SAP R/3 Enterprise, Release 4.70)
    under:
    SAP-NetWeaver Components ->SAP Web Application Server -> Basis Services / Communication
    Interface -> Business Workplace and Services -> Alert Management
    Hope this helps,

  • How can I create a simple chat function in a mobile app for iOS and Android

    I am wondering how can I create a chat function in my mobile app creating in AIR and Flex. The chat should be similar to the one in WhatsApp.
    Do you know some possible solutions?
    Thank you in advance!

    To enable chat messages, you need a server. The kind of server depends on the application. Do you want to create a chat like application like WhatsApp, where the server pushes messages without an active connection? Or do you have some sort of online game, where chat messages can only be transferred when the client is connected already?
    I have an online game where clients are connected to a Java server at all time. From there it is pretty straight forward:
    2 textfields:
    - 1 line textfield for input messages
    - multi-line textfield for chat history. Make sure the textfields autoscrolls to the bottom when the content changes
    on enter or button push, send a socket message to the server.
    the server broadcasts all messages to all clients that are subscribers of the chat group.
