How to change a file name or insert something into it without having to make the mouse hover over it, often opening the image instead?

Huurah for Apple, most of the time....But in soime matters I miss my old PC. This business of having to hover the mouse over a text is something I just cannot master. Is there a better way??

I can only guess at what you are asking.
If you want to rename a file without selecting it, there isn't a way.
You can just hit Return to get into the Rename mode, but you have to do something to select the file, first.

  • How to change original file name?

    When I rename a video, it doesn't change the title in info or the name which is shown at the top of the QuickTime window. Can I change that name?

    If the file is already open in Quicktime, changing it in the Finder won't take affect until it is next opened, and that's if you don't save anything from Quicktime.   If you Save As from Quicktime, then you can change the file name both in the Finder and Quicktime simultaneously.  Now normally it shouldn't allow you to change the name from the Finder if the file is open in Quicktime.   But who knows what is going on in your machine if it just did!

  • How to change Makefile file name in sun studio for linux 11?

    Greetings,
    For historical reasons, our makefiles are called Make.bld
    Sun Studio refuses to accept these as makefiles.
    It'd be a big pain to modify our entire build system to take makefile as the name.
    Is there a way to instruct sun studio to accept a different filename for makefiles ?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    There is no supported way of getting the Sun Studio IDE (or NetBeans) to recognize
    Make.bld as a Makefile. However, the solution Nik pointed out with a .nbattrs file will
    work.
    Here is a complete file which, if copied to each directory containing a Make.bld file
    will work. However, if the directory already contains a .nbattrs file you should edit
    the existing one and add the <fileobject>...</fileobject> lines rather than overwriting
    the entire file.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE attributes PUBLIC "-//NetBeans//DTD DefaultAttributes 1.0//EN"
    " http://www.netbeans.org/dtds/attributes-1_0.dtd">
    <attributes version="1.0">
    <fileobject name="Make.bld">
    <attr name="MAKEFILE_TYPE" stringvalue="foo"/>
    </fileobject>
    </attributes>
    Note: I split the DOCTYPE line myself. It should be a single line in the file (although
    its probably OK if split, I didn't verify that so I'll suggest a single line).
    I should warn you that the next release of the Sun Studio IDE will no longer use
    .nbattrs files and you'll need a different solution. A preliminary version of the next
    release is currently available by downloading Sun Studio Express 3. The IDE is
    significantly better than the current one! You also get a lot of the same features
    by downloading NetBeans 5.5 with the C/C++ Development Pack.

  • How can I share files in airdrop between mac and phone without having setting turned to "everyone"?

    I'm trying to utlitise airdrop between my MBP and iPhone 5s. I have the same icloud account for both, but when I have airdrop set to "contacts only" on either device the other is not visible. I have to set either device that I am trying to send to as visible to Everyone for it to show up on the other.
    I have myself in my contact book as well so I should technically come up as a contact I would think? I'd rather not have to have visibility set to "everyone" if I can help it.
    Any advice?
    Thanks

  • Change multiple files name at once

    Hi
    I would like to know if someone knows how to change multiple files name in mac. I need to name hundreds of files name, and dont want to do it one by one ... Example: Change from: Doc 1, Doc 2, Doc3 ...to: 2010Summer1; 2010Summer2,etc...
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Joao

    Make an Automator workflow that changes the name. You would Replace text of "Doc" with "2010Summer". When you open Automator, choose Workflow. Drag in a Get Selected Finder Items and then drag in a Rename Finder Items. Select the "Replace Text" option. Fill in the Details, select the files in the Finder, and then run the workflow.
    There are also some third-party file renamers. Check MacUpdate or VersionTracker. I don't know if there are any free ones.

    My questions are
    1) when use oreilly package to do file upload , it looks like i line of code is enough to store the upload file in the
    file direction.
    MultipartRequest multi =
            new MultipartRequest(request, dirName, 10*1024*1024); // 10MB
    why some example still use FileOutputStream?
    outs = new FileOutputStream(UPLOADDIR+fileName); 
        filePart.writeTo(outs); 
       outs.flush(); 
      outs.close();
    2) can I rename the file name when I use oreilly package?

  • If I change a file name, how can I get all the links to update?

    I've recently finished my webpage
    (kensingtonconcertseries.com),.....then my client wanted to change
    the name of one of his pages from 'Marold Duo' to
    'Rodewald-Morebello Duo.' All of my links to that page are to the
    original page(MaroldDuo.html). Arrrhhhhh!!! Is there anyway I can
    change the name of the page and have all the links within the
    website update automatically?
    I figured out my problem...make a copy and rename it and put
    it on the server. Simple....eventually, I'll have to get rid of the
    original file, but for now works well.

  • How can I hide file names in a photostream?

    How can I hide file names in a shared photo stream on icloud.  I don't want people to see how many pictures I take at an event.  Can this be done to pictures already posted?

    The Shared Photo Stream uses the filename of the original image file as the title that is shown in the stream.  If you want to hide the original filename, export the image to a folder in the Finder, rename it, then reimport it to share it.  You can rename the files directly when exporting.
    Or, if you do not mind to change the names of the originals in Aperture use the command "Metadata > Batch change" and change the title of the image, with the option "Apply to Original file" enabled and "Add metadata from" set to "None".
    To rename the photos already shared, delete them from the Shared Album and share them again.

  • How to change data source name and context root during deployment

    Hi,
    Env:
    WLS 10.1.3
    JDev 11.1.1.6
    Hudson
    I need to deploy two instances of my ADF application on the same development enviroment. We are using Hudson to deploy. My question is how to change data source name and application context root before second deployment.
    Kuba

    I don't believe there is an inbuilt facility to do this.
    Previously how I've done this is when checking files out using Hudson jovs, before the build I then use an Ant extension called XmlTask (http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/) to modify the required XML files.
    Can I ask why you're doing this in the first place please? Multi-tenancy? 2 versions of the same app?
