How can I make Spotlight show the file path

How can I make Spotlight show the file path in the Spotlight menu for selected file?

Via Finder certainly, but not in the menu.  You can view the file path in the Spotlight search results display by pressing the ⌘ key (while hovering over a file in the results), though.  The path will display at the bottom of the Quick Look output, or cycle through that location.

    Hello Louise,
    There are a couple of ways that you can download your apps to iTunes on your computer. 
    First, you can transfer your purchases to from your iPhone to your computer using the steps in this article:

    Alternatively, you can download the apps directly from the iTunes Store using the steps in this article:

  • In OSX 10.8, how can I make Spotlight  return filenames?

    Upto OSX 10.7, Spotlight always returned file names as well as content.
    Now, it only returns content, and I do not see any Preference option to make it return the filenames.

    But sometimes the file path appears, and sometimes it doesn't.
    Naturally, it's not showing for the file paths I need!
    When all that "appears" is a blank, any idea how to get Spotlight to show the file path?
    I've noticed that some are slow to load, sometimes.
    If you want to see the path so you can go to the folder, hold down the command key and click the item.
    Perhaps reindexing spotlight might help, but if it is finding the file, I'm not sure that would be the problem.

  • How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
    It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • When pressing Ctrl+f to find something in a page the Find box remains open until I close it, in ALL tabs I have in the firefox window. How can I make firefox open the Find box ONLY in the tab I am in?

    Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.<br />
    You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Another possibility is to use:

    Clips from JVC Everio camcorders have always had this problem with Premiere Elements (all versions). You need to select Interpret Footage.
    See this FAQ from PE version 2, step 3. Like I said it has been this way with all versions:

    You might be able to use this tool to change the header of your MOD files so they are seen as 16:9: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/DVDPatcher
    Or use this program (SDCopy) to download the video's from the cam, it will allow you to copy straight from the cam to your PC and auto renames and corrects the aspect ratio.

    and also, im trying to make a music video but i dont how to select different clips from a movie.

    Hello,
    You can get from Microsoft, the flip4mac free player. Since Windows Media Player for Mac is no longer supported, this is the way to go.
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx
    In my opinion, it is by far the best solution for playing .avi or .wmv files, because you get all the advantages of Quicktime.

    Perhaps it’s a design feature to speed up the Organizer launch.
    I am sure it is.
    - The normal use of the Organizer is not the folder view, it's the thumbnail view with an organization based on categories and folder. That way you should forget completely where your pictures are stored. Anyway, the folder view in the Explorer is not a map of the location of the different bits of your file, it's only a logical representation. That's easy to see when you are doing a defragmentation.
    - The folder view is useful even for those using normally the thumbnail view, but that is only for rare cases when you must change the folder organization, for instance moving files to another drive. The folder view is here to prevent you from changing things from the explorer and outside of the Organizer.
    - The new folder list view, which you find 'funny' is there to help better organizing using tags. Its huge advantage is that such a view is created extremely quickly by extracting the last subfolder in the media table : it's the way the database sees the folders, based on its own content,  totally ignoring the complex folder organization of your disk with media files or any unrelated other kind of data. You should use it in many cases, the main purpose being assigning tags when you have assigned descriptive folder names. I had suggested such a solution to prevent the long standing bugs in the folder view of previous versions.
    So yes, the purpose is:
    - to speed up switching modes
    - to help folder organization fans to migrate to tags organization
    - to hopefully get rid of the old folder organization bugs

  • How can I make a small swf file out of InDesign

    I have a 200 page book (PDF). I am trying to make a flip book to preview in web browser. How can I make a small swf file out of InDesign with the PDF I have?

    There is another point:
    if you are using JPEG images together with SWF as output file format, you could get smaller images by:
    1. using the Export For Web menu for generating size optimized JPEGs in PhotoShop opposed to Save As JPEG
    2. stripping all color management (ICC) information off the files (SWF is not very good in color management besides sRGB, I think…)

  • How can I make it put the folder in the current highlighted folder?

    When I am in a sub folder and want to create a new folder I got to File > New Folder and it always create the folder at the route in list view.

    Open the subfolder in it's own window. The window has focus, that's why the new folder is created at its root level.

  • How can I make my Clock.swf file disappear?

    Hi,
    How can I make my Clock.swf file disappear? The following code works great for movie clips but throwing an error while using for .swf files.
    Introduction_mc.visible = false; >>> This code works fine
    Clock.swf.visible = false; >>>> This code throws an error (How to resolve this problem?)
    Please help.

    The easiest way is by targeting the Loader object.
    l.visible = false;
    or
    removeChild(l);
    will both work.  And you can make it visible again if need be using the opposite of those commands.
