How do I rename more than one file at once in Finder?

I am new to Macs and I have a bunch of files I would like to rename to the same thing e.g. Work (1), Work (2) etc. I was wondering if there was a way you could do this on Macs like you can on Windows based computers.
Thank you for your help.

Hi shauniemac,
I do this on a regular basis with a shareware utility called File Buddy.

    Currently you cannot share a folder, only individual files. Sharing of folders is a feature that is coming in the future.

  • How can i transfer more than one file from server to client

    Hi,
    our requirement is transfer more than one files from server to client using the
    webutil_file_transfer.as_to_client_with_progress.One file transfer is already working in our system.If anybody know the solution please inform
    regards
    mat

    just an idea ...
    for this purpose let us put aside security concerns and other potential problems....
    -- Get the content of a server directory with Filter and create zip file
    1) create a class that implements java.io.FilenameFilter ...
    2) define accept() method ...
    3) call File.list() with the filter as a parameter. The returned array of strings will have all the names that passed through the accept() filter
    4) use java.util.Zip to create ZIP file on the server side
    -- I think it is better to create this functionality as a separate Java class, put it in required folder and after it
    -- use Forms->Program->"Import Java class" to create pl/sql wrappers, than to create wrappers for all classes and code in pl/sql
    5) use webutil to transfer file on the client
    6) use Java on client side to unzip transferred file
    if you think this is not too complicated, you should try ...

  • How could I select more than one file in a dialog?

    Hello NG,
    is it possible by using a "file path - frontpanel element" to configure
    the dialog for the possibility of selecting more then one file? The
    return should be an array. At the moment, I am only able to choose one
    file or a whole directory. But I want to select different files of
    different directories and do not want to reopen the "file path dialog
    box" continously.
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    Best regards,
    Michael

    Here's an example that uses the program you download from here. I also used a Boolean with the file browse icon that I got from OpenG. If you want, you can also check out this thread.

  • Can't open more than one file at once (Indesign CS3)

    hi there
    I have to deal with a strange problem, every time (well actually randomly) I try to open more than one indesign file at once, indesign just stays in the background and I can't get it to show up.
    the only thing I can to is force quite the application and restart indesign. Sometimes I'm able to see one of the open documents but I can't do anything with it (as there are no tools and no other indesign windows).
    Im not the only one having this problem, my work mate just updated his osx from 10.4 to 10.5, and now he is having the same problems...
    any suggestions why that is?
    cheers
    (my system: mac 2x2.66ghz dual-core intel xeon, 1gb ram, osx 10.5.2, indesign cs3
    my work mates system: mac G5, 1gb ram, indesign cs3, osx 10.5.2)

    Every system has issues when its first released.
    What's the point of jumping to a new system on a production machine when everything works perfectly in the old system?
    Monitor these forums and other boards and as soon as Apple and Adobe have a fix jump to the new system.

  • How do I burn more than one file to a dvd in with compressor?

    I'm needing to burn 2 video files to a single dvd, is it possible to do so in Compressor?

    The easiest way  is to put them into a single sequence in FCP, separated by a gap and title, with a chapter marker set at that location for navigation. You could also use Quick Time Pro for this.
    But Compressor cannot do multi-track DVD;s like a full fledged authoring program – such as  DVD Studio Pro. iDVD can also do this if you can locate a boxed copy of iLife…also Toast.

    How about performing the update IN the database using a stored
    procedure?
    By using non-database fields on your form to get the
    information, you can then call the procedure in the database to
    perform the updates. If an error occurs in the procedure you
    rollback, if necessary, and send a message or status back to the
    form. If it succeeds you might wish to commit and then re-
    execute the form's query -- using either the original key values
    or the new key values...

  • Can't attach more than one file at once in Yahoo! Mail using Firefox 15.0

    This problem appeared right after the new and improoved Flash Player was installed, when using Firefox 14.0.1. Problem persists with the new Firefox 15.0 (installed, not updated). It also takes a long time for Firefox to load the Attach button. I don't have this problem if I use Chrome.

    Or, just intall by new printer but do not Delcare it as the Default printer, I guess in this instance there would be NO default printer?
    You may not even have the problem!
    Have you installed the new printer yet?
    There are many more people who don't see it happen than those who do.
    PS: there is always a default printer.

  • How can I install more than one brush at once

    IV tried placing them in the preset brush but they dont load into photoshop and I have 300+ brushes to install HELP (photoshop cs6)

    Putting the files in the presets folder doesn't load them - it just makes them more easily available for you to load.
    The easiest way to load your brush preset files is to drag them into the running Photoshop application.
    But remember that those sampled brushes and textures consume resources, and will take a lot of time to load at launch.

  • Lightroom wont save metadata to more than one file at once

    I've got a whole bunch of files in a catalogue that have had the metadata changed locally.  I want to overwrite with the metadata thats in my LR cat.  When I select them all and choose metadata>save metadata to files the little "!" dissapears from only file ata time.  I matters not which module I'm in or if I go library > save metadata. Of course I'm on a deadline.  Argh!

  • How can I reference more than one jar file

    hi, In an applet, I use
    Archive = "foo.jar" to reference this jar file.
    But how can I reference more than one file?
    Thanks.

    Suggestion: spend a few minutes reading the tutorials.
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/applet/appletsonly/html.html
    You can specify multiple archive files by separating them with commas:
    <APPLET CODE="myapplet.class" ARCHIVE="file1, file2"     WIDTH=anInt HEIGHT=anInt>
    </APPLET>

  • How to upload more than one file in struts?

    thanks first. I want to upload more than one file at once. So I modify the the example of the struts 1.1. I changed :
    protected FormFile theFile;
    to
    protected FormFile [] theFile;
    and add indexed getter and setter method.
    public FormFile getTheFileIndexed(int index){
    return theFile[index];
    public void setTehFileIndexed(FormFile theFile,int index){
    this.theFile[index]=theFile;
    and in the upload.jsp, I changed
    <html:file property="theFile" />
    to
    <html:file property="theFile[0]" />
    and also in the ActionForm
    reset(){
    this.theFile=new FormFile[2];
    But when I run it, it tells me there are no getter indexed method.
    Thanks again for reading.

    Create a FormFile property with getters and setters for each file you want to upload. Eg.
    private FormFile file1;
    private FormFile file2;
    public void setFile1(FormFile file) {
       this.file1 = file;
    public void getFile1() {
      return file1;
    // same for file2And in your jsp use the following :
    <html:file property="file1" />
    <html:file property="file2" />
