How do I select a specific folder of photos for a slideshow on Apple TV?

Using Apple TV 3 and Mountain Lion on Mac Mini. I am making a slide show on Apple TV. The thing is, unlike in the music function, in which I see all my playlists listed, in the Slideshow function all I see is "Photos", and the photos shown are only those from the first folder in pictures, so that is all that is available for me from which to make the slideshow. How do I use Apple TV to view all my folders of photos, so that I can select the correct folder of pictures from which to make the slideshow?

No, sorry, that's how Migration Assistant works -- the most recent backup is the one it uses.
Your best bet might be to restore whatever you need from that last backup somewhere else, then delete it (see Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #12), so the last backup is the one you want.

How can I create a new folder in Word for Mac ?

How can I create a new folder in Word for Mac?

You don't do this in Word. You do it in the OS X Finder.
All you need do in Word is open the file, then select Save As from Word's File menu. Change the destination to your new folder then click on the Save button.
The Finder method is much faster if you have a number of files you want to move. Just remember that to open those moved files in Word, you will have to change the directory from which you will open those files.

How to search within a specific folder

I know this sounds elementary. However, it doesn't seem to work for me. Let me explain:
I have opened a finder window and clicked on a specific folder. In that folder are over a hundred files. In the same finder window, I enter the exact file name of an file in that same folder (let's assume we know its in that folder). Let's pretend the folder I'm searching is called "PhotosA"
After I type in the file name, the search begins. However, in the window, it tells me it's searching "This Mac" and the folder which I have selected--PhotosA--is not selected. So then I click on the PhotosA folder and it shows up as found.
My question is: Why do I need to do an extra step to click on PhotosA, when I have already told the computer I want to search in PhotosA? Why does the search always go to "This Mac"? This is not a major problem. It's just a minor annoyance.
Is there a way for me to set my Mac to search the folder or drive I have selected, as opposed to it always going to "This Mac"?

Use Easyfind.

It's better than Apple's find in about a thousand different ways.

How to search in a specific folder?

I have a late 2012 iMac with Yosemite. How can you search in a specific folder? If I am in my movies folder, how can I just narrow my search to that folder only. Not sure why I have to ask this and why it isn't easy enough to figure out. Please do not tell me I don't have to download an external app to do such a basic function.

How to save in a specific folder if i'm no more able to see the subdirectories?

suddenly today I discovered that I'm no more able to choose a specific document when I have to attach it to an e-mail and at the same time I'm no more able to make a save as in a specific folder. I'm able only to see the main directories like desktop, home, documents on the left side but when I'm trying to go into the sud directories of each folder I'm not able to do this and even if I click for instance on the folder document I do not see any document. The strange thing is that if I want to open a specific document I'm able to navigate anywhere! Is there someone able to help me?

Yes, I'm seeing exactly the same of your above screenshot but when I click on the right arrow I see only the main folders on the left (preferred folders, home etc. but without any specific file in those folders and even clicking on those ones I'm not able to navigate through them i.e. to expand them)
yes it is happening in Safari too (see below screenshot) while for instance is not happening with Aperture

When i create a specific folder to Photos , i copy The Photos from The general folder TO The new folder. Why they stay In The new folhear and on The general One??? can i change this???

Is it possible when i copy Photos from The câmera roll TO a specific folder that The Photos appear Only on The new Folder?

No, the photo in the new folder is only a pointer to the actual photo in the camera roll. There is only one copy of the photo.

From list of IAP's in Aruba Central, how do I select only a few of them for license assignment?

Q: I have hundreds of IAPs in the device management page of Aruba Central. How do I select only a few of the them to assign license?
A: Especially, when there is huge list of IAPs showing up in the device management page of Aruba Central, it becomes difficult and time consuming for an administrator to assign license for each IAP and then move on to the other.
This problem was sensed by the Aruba Central development team before hand and put up a solution in place that would help a user to select multiple IAPs from the list and assign licenses to them at once.
Lets understand on how to do the same:
1. Once you login to Aruba Central, click on "All Groups" and move on to 'Device Management" under Maintenance.
2. In the right-pane, you would be presented with the list of IAPs.
3. Now , click on the "Search tool" and it pulls down the fields to enter the search text.
(NOTE: Make sure you have selected ALL in the above drop down. This helps central to search among all IAPs irrespective of group and license assignment.)
4. Enter the Serial Number or MAC address of the IAP or Switch and hit "Search"
5. Here is where the intelligence of Aruba Central comes to play.
From the search result select the IAPs and Central would remember your selected IAPs, even if you change the search string and initiate an other search.
6. Once you finish searching all IAPs that you want to, you can click "Assign License" button in the lower left-corner and move on assigning the licenses to the selected IAPs

This was a life saver! I even started to manually tick the box as well!

How can i load a specific CSS style sheet for Safari?

Okay, So I have some structure issues when viewing my website on Safari compared to Firefox. Is there a way to put a code in the <head> tag to load a specific CSS style sheet for Safari like you can do with IE?
Thanks.

I took a screenshot of your page from Firefox (shown below). I assume you're seeing the same problem in Safari. If you increase text size one click, the keyboard image drops below the #contact division.
1) Height is a restiction in all browsers except IE. Avoid using height values on containers with text in them. If needed to show a background image, use the min-height property.
2) Fix your code errors. Some browsers are very sensitive to errors.
3) Your #content lacks cohesion. You need 3 columns, each with a width in pixels. Or simply use a 3-column table.

How can i link a text to a photo into a slideshow?

hello, need some help please! i want to link a text to a specified photo into a slideshow, another word to another photo and so on...I've tried any slideshow, and composition with anchor points and it doesn't work. How can i realize that please?

There's no support within Muse to cause click on a word within a flow of text to result in a slideshow turning to a specific image.
A composition widget can be used to have clicking on or rolling over a trigger object cause a target container to appear.

How do i create a platform to allow uploads of videos and photos for custom slideshows?

How do I create a platform that will allow for uploads of videos and photos to allow the creation of custom slideshows?

I built a System Message HTA for my previous employer that was used in a computer lab setting. It was a nice way to inform the users about things happening in the lab, as well as a nice way to ensure people knew who to contact if there were problems.
The HTA lived on a network UNC and each computer had a shortcut to the HTA in their All Users Startup folder (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). While you could push the shortcut with GPP, likes the others recommended, that's
about all you should do with Group Policy. This was neat - I had the HTA run custom .cmd files (in a hidden window) when it loaded (the Windows_onLoad subroutine) and then when it was closed by the user (button press that called an ExitProgram subroutine).
This allow me to capture who was logged on, how long the HTA was open, and what computer they were using. In a computer lab such as that one, it was nice to have additional way to track who was using what computer and when. Good luck and let us know if there
are any more questions - I really enjoyed that project.
Edit: Added additional info.

How do I select a specific word inside a TextFrame?

I want to highlight a word inside a TextFrame, but I'm only able to select the entire frame.
I have tried something (and several related version) like this:
var textFrames:com.adobe.indesign.TextFrames = activeDocument.textFrames;
for(var i:int = 0; i < textFrames.length; i++){
var t:com.adobe.indesign.TextFrame = textFrames.item(i);
var texts:com.adobe.indesign.Texts = t.texts;
    for(var j:int = 0; j < texts.length; j++){
      var text:com.adobe.indesign.Text = texts.item(j);
      app.select(text);
This selects the entire content of the area, instead of just a specific word.
How do I proceed? Thanks

To clarify: I dont know which TextFrame the string is within - hence i look through all frames.
I have tried implementing the suggested ideas - mainly doc.findText() as:
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = word;
var w:Object = doc.findText();
The problem is the findText() returns object of all types, and I cannot figure how to get it working. Below is my current solution, working like a charm, though probably not the most efficient implementation.
public static function select(word:String):void{
var app:Application = InDesign.app;
var activeDocument:Document = app.activeDocument;
if (!activeDocument){
return;
var textFrames:com.adobe.indesign.TextFrames = activeDocument.textFrames;
for(var i:int = 0; i < textFrames.length; i++){
var t:com.adobe.indesign.TextFrame = textFrames.item(i);
var words:Words = t.words;
for(var j:int = 0; j < words.length; j++){
var selector:Word = words.item(j);
if(selector.contents.toString() == word){
selector.select();
return;

How do I excude a specific folder from Endpoint Protection scans on *ANY* drive?

I see this question come up over and over again, and I still have not managed to find a straight answer. Sure hope someone here can help. I am in a situation where I have the same exact folder name on multiple random drives that I need to exclude from Endpoint
Protection client scans. So for example here is what I need to exclude:
C:\MyFolder
D:\MyFolder
E:\MyFolder
F:\MyFolder
G:\MyFolder
H:\MyFolder
J:\MyFolder
Z:\MyFolder
I have tried the following with no success:
*\MyFolder
*:\MyFolder
How to I tell Endpoint Protection to exclude "MyFolder" across the board on every drive letter? Can it be done with wildcards?

Sorry, but it can't be done. Real-time protection doesn't honor wildcards used for drives or folders (though it will honor a wildcard for a file name if it is part of a full path. C:\Example\*.log for example) The documentation is sparse for SCEP, but it's
mentioned in this old blog post for FCS and still applies:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/clientsecurity/archive/2012/12/03/3317660.aspx
The reason is that it's inherently less secure to be able to add such broad exclusions, so they don't make it easy. The best you can do is one exclusion per drive letter as you have above.
Well thats at least an answer! Heh, I can live with that. So I just need to try and collect a list of drive letters where those folders are present and add them one at a time then? To excluse everythign underneaht that folder can I just add the folder path
like so:
C:\MyFolder
Or do I need to do somethign like this instead:
C:\MyFolder\*.*
What's the "right" way to do this?
