How do I find and remove specific text in a PDF document?

hi. sorry for my english (i am from russia))
there is the problem - how do i find specific text in a document (in my case, it - all numbers (0-9)) and delete it, using javascript??
And I would like to know also - is the a search function with regular expressions??
And most importantly - how to remove the founded text???
is it possible?
document is so big, that if I manually delete the numbers - I will do it for a month!!))
Thank you!!!!

Thanx!!!
that is, if there are entries in document "hello 1234", then the search all words will identify it as two words "hello" and "1234". and then I check with regular expressions where the numbers.. ?
ps. and I have not found yet any command, that replace the founded text from javascript))
yes.. in acrobat X pro.. tools-protection-search&remove is also avaible....! (but, no regular in search string.. to bad...)
thank you!

How can I find and remove duplicate photos from my computer?

How can I find and remove duplicate photos from my computer?

Terence,
Yes, the duplicates appear in the iPhoto window. I have folders with same name occuring two or even three times sometimes with exactly the same set of photos (ie photos with the same ID) and sometimes with a limited set of photos. Other folders appear only once.
I normally take my MacBook with me if I'm shooting a lot of photos, such as on holiday, and then want to transfer them to my iMac when i get home. Other times I transfer the camera's memory stick directly to my iMac.
I have great difficulty transferring the photos from my MacBook to my iMac. I don't want to store my photos on my iDisk due to the length of time it takes to upload them.
Thanks again.

Use smart mailbox to find email with specific text in attached pdf

Does anyone known if a smart mailbox can be created to find emails with specific text within a pdf attached document. I know that spotlight can do this and it works fine but it would suite me better to be able to do this in mail.

After some digging, I found that Spotlight returns the pdf attachment (found within the library/mail/download folder), but not the actual email. The only time it returns the email is if the search text or numerics are coincidentally within the written contents or subject line.
Yes, i have tried setting up smart mailbox search criteria using the entire message contents but this does not find emails where the text exist within the pdf.
I've checked spotlight pref.'s and all categories are checked off.
Essentally, i need the smartbox search criteria to return results where the search text is found within the pdf attachment if possible. If this is not possible, i'll continue using spotlight searches outside of mail.
I appreciate any help you can offer.

How to find and remove specific email messages

I just read an article about a health department employee inadvertently sending a confidential e-mail to 800 users. The IT department shutdown the mail server and wihin an hour removed all copies of the message from the system.
I asked myself, if that happened here, how would I do that? I could shutdown the Messaging Server, but not sure what to do after that.
How would you identify, find, and remove a particular e-mail message from everyone's inbox?
$ imsimta version
iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.26 (built Mar 31 2004)

Well, each message is stored as a simple text file in the store. Assuming unix, you could do a pretty simple find and grep, looking for a key phrase. exec rm from that, and you're done....
After such brute force methods, you do need to run

HT2905 how do i find and remove duplicate songs in itunes 11.1.3?

i transferred my itunes to a new computer today, and somehow half of my library was duplicated. no i cant seem to find a way to get rid of the duplicates without selecting them one at a time. any ideas?

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
Alternativey see this migrate iTunes library post, you may want to revisit the transfer method.

How can I find and remove viruses from my mac

I fear that I might have a virus on my beloved macbook pro. i message was spassing out and not sending my messages, my folders continue to dissapear from my desktop causing me to restart finder (not a big deal just annoying) and some other out-of-place things are happening. I don't like credit cards so i can't buy any intvirus software so I was curious to know if there is a way to search for, find, and remove this potential virus on my own.

Apple provides and updates malware protection as part of the operating system functionality. There is no application you need to run. In using Macs in the corporate world and privately over the last 20+ years, the only malware that got into a Mac came from a shared MS Word document. That was in 1994.
Everytime that I chose to run a commercial or opensource anti-virus tool, a full sweep showed no infections.
There may be other systemic issues with your Mac that are the root cause for what you describe. As a baseline, I would do the following:
Run /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. On your boot disk, choose First Aid, and verify/repair permissions.
Reboot your Mac. Immediately press and hold the shift key until a login screen appears. Enter your login name, your password, and before continuing, press and hold the shift key again, until your desktop reappears.
Reboot normally.
What effect do the above have on the problems you mentioned?

How can I find and remove duplicate photos in iPhoto?

What is the best way to find and remove duplicate photos in iPhoto?

Are you seeing these duplicates in iPhoto or via the Finder? If it's in the iPhoto window then you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when one library has been imported into another with iPhoto 8 and earlier.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
I also prefer iPLM as it is more than just a dup finder. It's a the most versatile iPhoto utility available.

How can I find and remove b.scorecardresearch virus ?

FOUND THIS BUT NO SOLUTION:
This link does not work - it gives that 4400 error message.
Re: b.scorecardresearch.com
Apr 17, 2014 10:14 PM (in response to Austin Kinsella1)
      Try reading this report on Lingua Franca.
How do you find this in LION OS Mac Pro Desktop, and get rid of it entirely? After reading discussions on the web,
and when it began, I agree. It began with iCloud intially and got worse with the addition of iPhone.
Is there an EASY way to get rid this, AND stop the Cloud connection without losing all my things on the
desktop ?   The last place I was sent re: removing iCLoud they said to copy and paste each file (one at a time)
back to my computer, then remove iCloud. I have over 4200 Files - there has to be an easier way.

If you want to get this issue out of the way once and for all, in a few minutes, see below.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

How do I find and remove hidden files

For some reason, after the recent install of SL my 1TB drive is extremely bloated. I have deleted or moved just about everything possible from the disk (excluding system files and applications) and it still shows that I only have 94.08 GB of space available.
Is there a good piece of software out there that will help me to find out if there are several hidden files and remove what is unnecessary?

Wow ... that was enlightening. I discovered that somehow there is a hidden folder on the 1TB drive entitled "volumes" and within that folder is a subfolder entitled "Mega Drive" (my self-titled name for the 1TB boot drive), which is an exact duplicate of my previous hard drive.
A little more about how I got here. I had to computer in to the Apple Store, after upgrading to SL, for what I initially though was a hardware issue. The Genius felt it was software, did an erase and install. When I got the macing back I tried to us Migration Assistant to copy files from my Time Machine drive, it took all night so I wasn't awake when it finished. I suspect that is where this folder came from, as the next day I could not find the information on my computer, so I started manually moving the files from that drive.
The bottom line is this ... is it safe to remove trash this entire folder?

How to check if there is specific text in a word document ?

Hello everyone ,
I have a form include text box1 , I need to check a word document if there is specific text inside it , if it’s true the textbox1.text = 1 , if it’s false the textbox1.text = 0 , and so on .
to be clear I’m trying to check a lot of things not just specific text also ( font size , font color , font type , photo , table …………etc ) .
I read a lot of threads about Office Automation , all about how to create a new documents and insert text tables photos….. etc, but what I need just to check if it existing or not
Any idea , books, threads ,examples ….
Thanks in advance.
Visual Studio 2013

"1- what if i need to check that word in the beginning of the second paragraph in that document or at the end of the third paragraph "
to find a word in a paragraph, use the range keyword as in
Dim rng As word.Range = objDoc.Paragraphs(1).Range
rng.Find.Execute(FindText:="yourtext")
" can you give me any website or books , to learn how to check ( font size , font color , font type , photo , table
…………etc ) and return with (1,0) or (true ,flase)."
You can use the range object here aswell
If rng.Font.Size = 7 Then TextBox1.Text = 1
Look at this link for a multiple of examples about word automation
