How can I create a simple app that will automatically add folder script

Hi! I hope I can get a little help on this. I tried searching online and haven't found anything.
Is there away I can make a simple "application" that will automatically add a folder script to a users folder?
Basically I need a folder script to run but I don't want to explaint o a user how they'd have to do it in automator.
I'd like to be able to create an application they double click. The app tells them to select a folder then automatically runs the script.
Does anyone have any ideas of how'd I'd do this?

Oh I get it. Yeah I read you post on one of the other pages and didn't quite understand, but not that you say that your're makeing this for another user, it makes sence.
So what you want to do is have the computer automatically install a script on a customer's computer, right?
(I'm using "custumer" loosly; i.e. just another user)
If that's what you'd like to do, then you'll probably have to write an actual program in Xcode, since I imagine automiticlly installing folder action scrips will be highly discuraged by Apple because it would cause a huge security hole in the OS. (You wouldn't want some random person sending you a folder action installer disgused as a regular app LOL.)
But I will actually suggest the following, which I think will work great for your users:
Make a regular Automator app, and drag it to your Dock. Now, have the user click and drag a bunch of photos to the application icon, and it will run the app automatically on those files.
You could try a work flow like this:
ask the user Are you sure?
convert pictures
save pictures to ConvertedPics folder
pop up a confirmation message saying that everything was resized
Hope this helps

How can I make a simple slideshow on iDVD?

As opposed to the majority of Apple apps that are "user-friendly" I find using iDVD a very awkward, un-friendly application. It offers "drop zones" without me understanding what I should "drop" into them.
I just want to make a simple DVD of a slideshow with some background music ... nothing fancy. I don't need any theme and I don't need to add any movies.

To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1089
If you want something a bit more sophisticated:
There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
(Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico: http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast, for burning.
You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!

How can I make a loyalty app for small business

I am experienced with Adobe Creative Cloud - no prior coding experience - however, I have assisted on a few websites that are Word-Press based.
I am working with a small business that would like to have an app with basics like their menu and products - however they would like a loyalty card on the app.
How can I use the CC to make this happen?

Web app: How can I make a web app input form post directly to a sub category

Please, how can I go about this? Some of the ideas coming to my head is to replace the section I require with the generated webapp input form code with this:
<input type="radio" name="CAT_Category" value="{module_category, ID} onclick="javascript: return false;" >2013 /> // Not tested because am not sure of the markup
Am I on point ? Or is there any other way I can get this done.

I Trickster, pardon me if am not clear enough. But this is it. I have many BC Categories setup for different web apps. If you use the module {module_categorylist} only. BC will populate all the categories on the BC site, instead of a specific category relevant to the web app. If it is {module_categorylist, categoryID}, you are telling BC to use the the categories in a specific category.
When you say that you want to assign a web app item to a sub-category... do you mean the built in BC categories . I want to do this via the web app input form not through the admin.
Do you have a top-level category that contains all the relevant sub categories that the user could use to classify/categorize the web app item upon submission? Yea I have a top category that the user could use. It is this top-level category ID, I have used with the categorylist module.
If you don't want the user to choose the sub-category themselves, how do you plan to derive the sub-category anyway? Thanks again Trickster. You have provided the solution to that with the hidden input field code you shared earlier. The sub-category has been pre setup as usual in BC and the sub-category ID would be used as you instructed in the code. This is intended for another web app that won't require users selecting a category. This is the example you shared:
<input type="hidden" name="CAT_Category" value="my category ID"/>
Using my example above I was able to test and have it working (using {module_categorylist} with the SELECT element) on a web app input form and when I submitted the new web app item it was classified in the category I chose. Yes Trickster, it works for me too that way. the web app item was classified perfectly, but if you go to your the web app item submitted at the admin-end, you will discover in that the category the user selected in the front-end is not selected, even though the item was classified
I have highlighted it here: http://screencast.com/t/dwiXzBFXp
The option selected by the user is not captured. It often defaults to the 2012, even when the user selected 2013 and the item has been classified as 2013.
I hope am more clearer. Thanks for all the effort.

How can i make my java app auto reconnect to Oracle.

Scenario:
when i am working with my java app if suddenly Oracle server connection unplugged. Then i got some problems regarding database.
When they replugged the connection, i need to restart my app again. Then it works fine.
Question:
When the database is replugged or restarted, then how can i reconnect to the DB automatically with out restart my app. Please letme know is there any auto reconnect process is there for Oracle.

If you want your application to reconnect, you would need to add logic that catches the exception that gets thrown when the connection is lost and tries to reconnect.

How can I make a simple 1D array filter.

When I aquire my data I get a 1D array with anywhere from 10 - 30 data points. There are always ten good data points the rest are noise or false triggeres. a good data point is in the range of .1-.2 a bad point is .001-.01 how can I filter out thse bad points? Im using labview 8.6. also I think this program will work if it could be backconverted from 9 to 8.6.

3 - "in range and coerce" - (note: you need to wire values above and below the orange line shown for the range you'd like)
4 - case structure: if "in range" is true, then take the value and put it into a new array (this new array only has the good values you want) (false case is blank)
NOOOOOO!!!!
Step 1 and 2 are not necessary. Simply autoindex the original array at the loop boundary. Voila!
(an "index array" with the index wired to [i] is never needed. Autoindexing does the same thing and automatically determines the number of iteration, eliminating step 1).
The second array is not initialized, meaning it will grow without bounds of you run the VI many times. Every time the loop runs, the array is resized, requiring a new buffer allocation. The original code is much better, because it preallocates the output array, replaces elements, then strips the extra length at the end. For large datasets, the original code will be orders of magnitude faster.

How can i make my ipad apps work again?

i have this iPad2 wifi+3g for like five months now but iv never tried sync it on my laptop. Just yesterday i decided to try sync but im frightened when a pop up window appears said that syncing will erase all the data i had on my iPad including my favorite movies and apps.It's been two days now that i've been tinkering my iPad apps.My 1st problem now is i lost all my movies that my friend installed on my iPad and i dont know how to retrieve it. 2) i foldered my apps and sync it and also update it to iOs5 but after the update and syncing my apps doesnt work now like my bookworm and few other games doesn't work but it's still there on my folder.
Can someone help me please... a detailed instruction is immensely appreciated .

If the movies that your friend installed on your iPad were not bought with your Apple ID or are not in your iTunes library - they are gone - unless he reinstalls them or you sync again with iTunes (if they are in your library).
If you bought the movies with your ID and you live in the U.S., you can download many movies again for free using the purchased tab in iTunes.
If your third party apps no longer work, try downloading another app on your iPad - any free app is fine. That will reset your iTunes authorization and should reset the other apps.

How can I make a simple Pendulum movement

Hi,
I am quite new to motion and at the moment I am thinking that I am tiring to run before I can walk this idea of mine.
I am trying to make a repeating pendulum movement, like the movement of the Newtons cradle with the 4 balls, the energy of the swinging outer left ball is transferred to the outer right ball on contact etc. Each ball will show a short looping video footage.
Is there a simple way of creating an arced motion path (upwards and outwards) for the first ball and then reversing it along the same motion path, but then copying this path to the opposite side, mirroring the complete movement?
I have tried converting to a simple motion path to keyframes but I get into a bit of a mess.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I actually just did an animation based on that desk decor thing... it was easy once i figured out what to do...
Now, i tought myself motion, so my way may not be the "best" or quickest but it worked. First...import the object/make the object or whatever. second, go to behaviors and take basic motion path. After that, take the bezier curve adjustment and arc the line. That will get you the object going up in a swing or down...depending on where you put the start point on the curve. After that, copy the actual motion curve, but put the new end point to where the old start point was...basically invert the motion (if there is a simpler way to do this please tell me). that will get the object to go up/down then down/up.
So that gets the basic motion of a half swing.
If your object hits another object (like in the desk thing) make sure your snap lines are on because youll need them to line up the motion. Do the same thing to the second object as you did to the first, but going the oposite way. The snap lines will help guide you to make sure the second object goes as high as the first. To make it look correct i pretty much eyeballed the connection of one object to the next going frame by frame. I also added the "ease at end" motion to the rising motion path to add a realistic touch.
If this is confusing i'm sorry...

How can I make the 'remote' app work across a routed network?

So, I have trusted and guest networks, with iTunes running on a Mac on the trusted network. I'd like iOS devices on the guest network to be able to use the 'remote' app, specifically the DJ function.
I think there will be two components:
-- service discovery. Apple likes mDNS (Bonjour), so possibly can be done like this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2751128?start=0&tstart=0 but one would need to figure out what service discovery records remote is looking for.
-- traffic. Appropriate traffic would need to be allowed between the two networks.
Has anyone looked at the wire traffic for remote, or gotten this to work?
Thanks,
Heath

Welcome to the Apple Community Dylan.
There is no way to set up home sharing on the Apple TV without the original remote from Apple, you will need to purchase a new remote from the Apple Store.
If you already have homesharing set up on the Apple TV, you merely need to set it up in the remote app settings.

How can i make a simple image viewer in JAVA?

i know this is a silly doubt...but 'm new to java
i have to make an image viewer which can also zoom the image
please help me
advance thanx

Create an java.awt.Image object
Display it in a java.awt.Panel object
using java.awt.Graphics.drawImage
some of the drawImage methods let you scale, clip, and flip the image.
That's AWT. It may be easier in Swing.
I think this could be written in under 50 lines of code. Maybe under 25.
Read the tutorials and the API. All will become clear.
If you're new to java, you might be better off posting to the New To Java forum.

How can I make a simple DVD in iDvd?

I have 17 video segments that I would like to autoplay in order and then have a simple titled menu come up at the end and so all 17 segments as thumbnails in case a reply of one of the segments is required.
THx for any thoughts...
Mike

You won't be able to get all 17 on one menu page. It will require a sub menu/s also. Most themes range from 6-12 buttons. But the good news is once you have compiled your iDvd project, you can drag and drop said movie to the first box while in map view within iDvd and it will play the dvd once inserted into most dvd players. The menu will indeed pop up at the end provided you do Not select the loop function also.
Hope this info helps but if not just come on back.

How can i make my own app?

I would like to make an app for my small business, not to sell to the public. Our sales people (only 4 of them) have iPads and I would like to make a catalog of our products into an app so it's easier to sync and use for the sales team. I've found several online companies that will help me but not sure who to go with or the best option...or if there's something I've overlooked. I've tried Dropbox and Goodreader and while that works...an app to me sounds better. The catalog would consist of pictures, product descriptions, some video.
Thanks!

You could start out with Apple's iWork apps like Pages for word processing and Numbers for spreadsheets (or something similar from the App Store). These apps allow you to embed photos and videos, or links to your own YouTube videos. And you could use iCloud or DropBox for sharing and collaboration between your teammates.
Experimenting with these off-the-shelf apps may give you some ideas for custom solutions that better meet your business needs. Good luck!

How can I make a simple voice recording with no instrumentals?

I just want to record a song or two, save them individually and then burn to a cd. I don't need all of Garageband whistles and bells. I'm intimidated at the new 'event/project' start menu. I don't want to select a key or timing. I just want to sing the song using the mic on my iMac. This is not going to be posted for the general public and I don't want or need fancy. Suggestions? Guidance?
I mistakenly posted this first to the podcasts site.

there's nothing to fear there, pick "Acoustic Instrument" for a simple "no bells" recording track

if you don't intend to use any of GB's tools, then the key and tempo don't matter
