How can I unlock numerous files at the same time (i.e. photos) so I can make changes (rotate etc)?

Im using Lion on a MacBook Pro 15in (just under two years old) and I would like to know if I can lock numerous photo files at the same time so I can make changes to them. At the moment when I select an entire folder to go through and make changes, ie rotate in Preview, I am told with each photo that I have to unlock it. I am going through photos I took of archival material and have nearly 5000 photos to adjust and make changes to. This small step is taking up a lot of time.
I realise there will probably be a common 'sense' answer to this but it alludes me at the moment so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

  • How to upload multiple .CSV files in the same time.

    Hi Legends,
    Can anyone please help me to resolve my issue?
    This is very urgent and critical.
    Description:
    We have two users.1)edw_user_dump
    2)prd_udm.
    We need to upload the xx.csv file at the same time for these two users in oracle forms.

    Thanks in advance!
    Thanks,
    Madhusudhanan

    Madhusudhanan,
    A couple of observations. First; always list your exact Forms version (eg; 10.1.2.0.2 not 10g R2). In most cases, the solution is different depending on the Forms version. Second; why must you use Forms to kick off a SQL Loader process? This is a server-side process and should be initiated by a server side process. If you absolutely must use Forms to kick off the process, again we need your Forms version in order to offer any solutions. Based on your code sample, I can asusme you are at least using Forms 9i becuase you are using WebUtil.
    Is your Database and Application Server the same physical computer? If they are not, this would explain why your HOST command isn't working because HOST runs against the Application Server not the Database server.
    Third; have you considered using and External Table (if your RDBMS version supports them) for each of the files you are attempting to upload? In this instance, it would be helpful to know your RDBMS version as well. External Tables can be a little frustrating to set up the first time, but as with any new construct you use - it gets easier the more you use it.
    Fourth; are you getting any errors in your log file(s)? If so, what are the errors? Please list the full error message if you have one.
    Finally, with respects to your statement:

  • How can I rename many files at the same time?

    Hello!
    I have a bunch of PDF files (2 thousand at least) that I need to transfer to another Mac but since it's running OS 9.2 it won't accept the files because the names are too long, therefore, I need a quick way to change all such files into a shorter name but maintaining some of the serial numbers each file name has (i.e., not changing all to the same name but just taking off the first or last 5 characters for example), is there a way to do this sort of thing with OS 10.3.9 or 10.5.2?
    Best!
    Danny

    Look at this shareware. http://www.jonn8.com/ntf/ It's a batch renaming app, but I'm not sure it will do exactly what you want. However, it does have a 7 day free trial.
    If you do a Google serach using +batch file rename mac+ you can review a lot more apps.

  • Two people can open one InDesign file at the same time

    We have Mac (10.8.5) users who share files on a file server. They are connected to the file shares via NFS. The users are using Creative Suite 5.5. When a user opens a file, they get the appropriate ".idlk" lock file. For example:
    ~test~0kjyv(.idlk
    TEST.indd
    As far as I used to know, this used to prevent anyone else from opening that same file. But now, multiple users can open the same file. Whoever makes the first save seems to win. The next person who tries to save the file will get the following error:
    "Another user has modified the Adobe InDesign document TEST.indd. To prevent damage to the document, InDesign is shutting down."
    InDesign then locks up and starts beachballing. The only option is to force quit.
    I tried updating the users to the latest version of CS5.5 InDesign which is 7.5.3.
    Has anyone else encountered this?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Maybe it is something to do with using NFS? Our Mac's are bound to AD, and use NFS shares because they have issues with SMB/CIFS. They are connecting to an EMC NAS. All of the users have read/write permissions to the files.
    I tried the same process on a test AFP share that I created from a Mac OS X Server, and then it works as expected. When the second user tries to open the file, they cannot, and they get an error message:
    "Cannot open the document TEST.indd. You may not have permission or the document may be open already."
    Why doesn't it behave this way on the NFS share?
    The permissions look comparable for each:
    NFS share:
    -rw-rw-r--@  1 ADuser  ADgroup   6823936 Oct 29 16:17 TEST.indd
    -rw-rw-r--@  1 ADuser  ADgroup        0 Oct 30 09:37 ~test~0kjyv(.idlk
    AFP share:
    -rw-rw-r--@  1 admin    staff          6823936 Oct 30 09:33 TEST.indd
    -rw-rw-r--@  1 admin    staff               0 Oct 30 09:35 ~test~0kjyv(.idlk

  • Can I export multiple files at the same time in Premiere CS5.5?

    I have 10 hours of total video.  I need to cut them up into small  <5 minutes clips to play on a clients website.  Rather than exporting one clip at a time, i'd like to do them all at once and save them as individual files.. it that possible?  I thought now, as each small file would need it's own file name.
    John Q.

    You can do a batch export by sending them to Adobe Media Encoder with the Queue button in the export settings dialog.
    However, you will have to set up each export one at a time.

  • How to run several class files at the same time

    I have four class files, there's: cvnt1.class,cvnt2.class,cvnt3.class and cvnt4.class.
    I want to know how to write application for running all of those files together. thanks!

    Your question is still unclear - do you want to access code from those class files (just add all of them to classpath) or do you want to create number of threads or number of processes (one per class) and start code from each class simultaneously or something else?

    Does IPVC-3511-MCU support multiple conference with multiple video screen?
    Regards,

    Hi -
    This feature is called continuous presence - there are a number of references on Cisco's web site for the 3511. Here is one - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/hw/video/ps1870/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a00804fc993.html and possibly another - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/hw/video/ps1870/products_data_sheet0900aecd801c5e66.html
    You did not mention the release of the 3511 software you are running. Knowing that might help too.

  • How can I open multiple files as Photoshop Raw files at the same time for Photoshop CS6 extended on a PC?

    I am trying to open 20-25 files at the same time as Photoshop Raw [*.RAW] files.
    The only way I can open multiple files is if i leave the file type as All Formats. When I change it to  Photoshop Raw [*.RAW], the files a deselected.

    Use bridge. Select all the files then press ctrl-r or cmd-r to load the selected files into camera raw.
    If you try this in Photoshop use File>Open As then for file type choose camera raw. (I have not tested open as for opening multiple files)

  • Two users open same file at the same time... how is this possible?

    I am the Creative Director for a magazine. All the people in my team are using Macs with Leopard and Indesign CS3. I didn't know this was possible, but it is happening to us. Two people can open the same Indesign file at the same time. When this happens, the file becomes corrupt and we can't work on it again. We don't use Version Cue. We probably should, as well as In Copy, but we just haven't had the time to learn to use them. This problem started about three months ago and we have not been able to determine how this is possibe or find any information why it is happening, or how to stop it from happening. Help! If anyone out there has any idea... we are desperate.

    My hunch would be to suspect the server - it's probably not handling file locking correctly.
    Here's what I'd image I'd try - but be aware, I am writing down stuff from memory, and I cannot guarantee the info is completely accurate - but I hope it might give you some pointers.
    - If the server is currently providing the AppleShare Filing Protocol (or whatever it is called - acronym is AFP), you could try to connect using that.
    Go to the Finder, and use the Go - Connect to Server... menu item and enter the server's IP address, prefixed with afp:// - e.g. if the server is on IP address, say '192.168.1.120'
    In that case, I'd try connecting to
    afp://192.168.1.120
    (I am inventing this IP address for the sake of argument - don't simply copy this number. Ask the IT guy what the server's IP actual address is. There are other ways to connect, and using the IP address is very crude and 'primitive' but it also cuts a few complexities out of the picture).
    If this does not work, it might mean that the server is not providing the AFP protocol - in that case, ask the IT guy if he can turn it on for you.
    I don't know much about what Microsoft's various product names mean (e.g. what exactly is included in a 'Microsoft small business server' - no idea), but there's a good chance there is a module available that is probably called 'Services for Macintosh' which can be installed.
    I've worked around Microsoft servers before, and if I remember correctly, 'Services for Macintosh' is not typically installed by default - it's part of the product, but it is not installed unless explicitly requested during install.
    The IT guy will need to get out the Microsoft server's install disks and install the optional Services for Macintosh, then turn it on. Once that is done, the above 'magical incantation' afp://yadiyadi... should work.
    If it does, make sure _everyone_ in the team uses the same method to connect to the server, and then try again - there's a good chance the server will now honor the file locking and warn the second user who attempts to open the document.
    - If the server is already using the AppleShare Filing Protocol, and you're already doing some variation of the above, and the whole point I made above is moot, try connecting using the SMB protocol instead. So, in the finder use 'Go - Connect to Server...' then use
    smb://192.168.1.120
    (replacing 192.168.1.120 by your server's real IP address).
    Again - make sure _everyone_ is using the same method to connect before trying whether the files are now locked properly.
    The AFP and SMB protocols are the two most common protocols that Macs can use to connect to a Microsoft file server.
    Now, the third possible cause: often people don't realize there are possibly multiple ways to connect to an MS server, and so people go browsing the network from their Macs and 'grab' whatever entry they see first.
    So what often happens is that user 'A' is actually connecting using SMB, and user 'B' is connecting using 'AFP' and in theory that should all work, but in practice sometimes things go wrong.
    My recommendation is to make sure that all users in the Mac workgroup connect in the exact same way - so there's no mix of SMB and AFP protocols being used.
    To verify which protocol is used, right-click or control-click on the volume name after it has been mounted on the Mac, and use the Get Info... menu item - the info dialog should tell you which protocol is being used. The easiest to see the mounted volumes is to go into the Finder Preferences, and under 'General' make sure it shows mounted volumes on your desktop. Then you can simply right-click the volume on the desktop to do Get Info...
    Hope that helps!
    Cheers,
    Kris
