How can i see others files in mac air

I want to manage the storage in my Mac Air but I don't know how to visualize "others" files so I can review what I have there...

Finder > Go > all my files
then arrange by size, or by date ,etc. to see what you need to offload to an external HD.
disk expert, or daily disk applications on the APP Store are also very handy for that as well.

How can I see my files on Time Capsul

Do you mean Time Machine files or ordinary files.. ??
Did you copy files to the TC? It should just open in the finder as long as the TC is available and the airport utility shows it connected.
If you want to see the contents of the TM files.. open the sparsebundle and use main Time Machine icon in the dock.

How can I see what file's are in a directory

I'm want to make a program for brosing the harddisk and copying and editing file's.
I already can copy them but:
How can I see what file's are in a directory and how can I see
what subdirectory's are in a directory so I can show them to the user?
I dont't know if it does matter if If I'm on a windows or linux platform, when it does please tell me for the windows?

I believe this works for a directory of reasonable size.
import java.io.File;
final public class FileSearch {
    public File current;
    public String path;
    public File[] files;
    public FileSearch(File dir){
       try {
          current = dir;
          files = dir.listFiles();
       } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
    public void currentSearch() {
       for (int i=0; i<files.length; i++) {
          if (files.isFile()) {
System.out.println(files[i].toString());
public void searchFiles(){
for (int i=0; i<files.length; i++) {
if (files[i].isDirectory()) {
System.out.println();
System.out.print("directory: ");
System.out.println(files[i].toString());
try {
FileSearch sub = new FileSearch(files[i]);
sub.currentSearch();
sub.searchFiles();
sub= null;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
public static void main(String[] args) {

How can I see other results (matches) in Messages on Mavericks?

I have a long message thread/conversation on my Mac (it's an iMessage conversation) that spans back several months now. I am trying to find all messages with a particular word in the message.
Example: I want to find all the messages in my Mac with the word "LOL" in. I type "LOL" in the search box in the Messages application. The result says that I have 300 matches, but when I click on the thread/conversation it only lets me see the most recent message sent or received containing the word "LOL"
How can I see previous messages containing a matched search term without scrolling through the entire message thread?
Seriously the message thread/conversation I'm talking about is HUGE. It is so big that it takes up over 300MB in my iPhone's storage... So going through it to find a particular message or two is going to be a nightmare just by scrolling up/down all day!
Can anybody help?

Figured it out!
Use Command-G or Edit > Find > Find Next to cycle through matches in the transcripts. Command-Shift-G and Find Previous let you reverse direction.

HT2531 How can I see a file's enclosing folder.

Often I just need to know where a file is, not to open it. If I go to Spotlight, how can I see what its enclosing folder is? I think this used to pop up when hovering over a file name in Spotlight.
Thankyou.

If you are talking about the spotlight search in the upper right of the finder window it still has the tooltip that shows you the full pathname of what you are pointing at in the list.
If you select spotlights show all then the pathname is outlined at the bottom of the spotlight window and you can double click any of the items along that path to open that item.

How can i see movie from my mac to tv

how can i see movie from my macpro in to tv screen

Its not clear what MacPro you have. If it is a newer one then the thunderbolt adapter will work. If it's like mine, a 2008 model then you may face some issues.
If your MacPro is older and has DVI outputs for video then you are going to have to either use a TV with DVI in or get a DVI to HDMI or DVI to VGA, whatever your TV will accept as input.
Also if you have to go this way the DVI doesn't contain audio so you'd need another cable to move audio from your MacPro to your TV. So this could get complicated. There might be some easier solutions.
As mentioned you might be able to airplay it to an apple TV if you have one.

How can I see any files that did not originally come on the mac

I downloaded and erase a few things here and there and ever since I did that I feel a slight differnce in the power of my book.. and I am completely new to mac so I am not sure how to navigate through everything completely just yet. I know how to use finder etc. but like is there a way to just look at recent files that are not natural to a mac so i can delete them
I have the brand new Macpro btw i dont think that should make a differnce with any of the answers but just incase.....
I thank you guys in advance for any help I can get I love making sure I have no trash or malware on my computer that i just paid 3k for

I'm afraid that my way and Tom's way of perceiving your question are quite different. It would be confusing to have two people dragging you into different realms of troubleshooting, so I will leave this question for you and Tom to work out. To many cooks spoil the broth.
Below is my treatise on trying to fix slow computers:
Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                  The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                  The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
                                  The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
                                  Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
    used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
    requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
    drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

The app called "Air Sharing" allows you to do that. Connect to a wifi network, run the program and you can mount your iphone as a drive using Finder. Upload all the PDFs you like, and you can open them from within the Air Sharing app. Also, you can view most image files, most office files, etc.

How can I see my files from iCloud on my ipad??

Can't see MTS files using mac os 10.9.5 and adobe premiere elements 12

I am using a MacBook Pro and OS is 10.9.5. Adobe premiere elements 12 does not recognize MTS files from my SD card. The OS does not see MTS files from the card as well...but...I have an MTS file on my desktop from before I upgraded from 10.6.8 that can be seen by both Adobe and the new OS.
HELP

annejennifer
What are you using as your Add Media/ for the import of your .mts on the SD?
Not sure if the following is a viable question, but....
What happens if you transfer the .mts on the SD card to your computer desktop and then try to
import the .mts into Premiere Elements 12 with its Add Media/Files and Folder/Project Assets?
But on reflection, if your OS and Premiere Elements are both not seeing the file, this does not
present as a Premiere Elements issue, rather an issue between the .mts format and your Mac computer.
If that is a valid observation, have you gotten any input on this from Apple?
Have you looked into converting these .mts files into H.264.mov or .mp4 before use?
ATR
Add On....could you give us more information about the .mts file that you said that you have on your new
computer desktop and is being recognized by the OS and Premiere Elements 12?

How can I see all files used in a Report or Transaction

I need an expert advice. I am not an Abap programmer but probably this is the the correct forum to post my question.
I need to create a Query using same files that are used in report S_ALR_87012103 and some other additional files.
Is there any transaction or functionallity that I can use to see the files used by this report ?
<< Removed - please do not offer rewards >>
Thx. in advance for your help
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Jun 19, 2009 1:33 PM

Thanks for your message. I just reviewed the files in SE36.
So I guess, next time I will have to check the name of the program in the status bar or the system status screen.
Then, I will have to use SE38 in DEV to see the "Dictionary Structures" in the source code.
However, on this case, I can not find the "KDF" in the source code or "Dictionary Structures".
Other than you technical expertise ... How did you know that this program is using the KDF Logical Database.
On my case, since I am not an Abap programmer, I would have to review all files described in the "Dictionary Structures" which by the way they are a bunch of files.
I prefer the logical view. I liked the way the files are displayed using the SE36 and "KDF"

Marco
