How to copy selected files to cd

how do i copy selected files to cd

The easiest way, at least for me, is to open a folder on the desktop.
Copy the selected files in to this folder. This will be the source folder.
Use the software that came with your computer and burn the CD

How to copy selected files in Finder (applescript)

I don't like to use hotkeys (such as CMD+C, etc.) and would prefer to copy and paste files in OS X with the mouse just like I did in Windows.
Unfortunately Finder has no such copy and paste buttons in its toolbar like I know them from Windows Explorer. It bothers me that I always have to use the context menu or hotkeys. So I intend to write small scripts with AppleScript and move them into the Finder toolbar to have my custom made buttons.
Unfortunately I am newbie to Applescript and did not yet manage to get such simple script to work despite many trials.
The first script must only copy marked/selected files or folders in Finder to the clipboard so that I can paste them into another Finder window.
The second script should simply paste the clipboard content into Finder.
I tried this but nothing is being copied:
tell application "Finder"
activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
key down {command}
keystroke "c"
key up {command}
end tell
Would be great if somebody can help me with these few lines.
Thanks in advance

meanwhile got a reply in another forum that works like charm exactly as I want...I post it here below for future newbies...
tell application "Finder" activate
delay 0.2
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Finder"
keystroke "c" using command down
end tell
end tell
end tell
save as program and then drag to Finder toolbar.
You can even change the icon.
Thanks for your attention guys

How to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

how to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

You can PDFs to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports PDFs - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
Options include free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of other documents types).
For iBooks you can first add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, and you can then sync them by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and using the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync them.
For Adobe Reader adnd GoodReader you can use the file sharing on the Apps tab on the right-hand side to copy them over : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094

Does anyone know how to copy my files from my ipod to a different computer?

Does anyone know how to copy my files from my ipod to a different computer? I tried to do it, but all that it did was erase my files. What i want to to is use my ipod to transfer my files to another computer (which has itunes as well) PLEASE help!

You will need to enable your iPod for disk use. Then, you should see your iPod in "My Computer" and you can open up your iPod's folder there and drag the files into it. You can store the files on the iPod, then connect it to the other computer and drag-and-drop them from the iPod into the designated directory in that computer. Make sure individual files are not larger than 4 GB.

How to copy/delete file

hi,
i need to come out a program, which can copy/delete file from unix directory A to directory B, on the application server.
does any one have any idea how am i going to code the abap program for this?
thanks

> i need to come out a program, which can copy/delete file from unix directory A to directory B, on the application server.

i am assuming that your Application server is Unix.
unixcommand cp is used to copy the a file from one directory to another.
cp /dir/file1 /dir2/file2
the above command will copy the file1 of dir1 to file2 of dir2.
for delete use the command rm,
rm /dir/fiel1
the above command will remove the file1 from directory dir.

How to copy a file from Client to Application Server

Hello,
My requirement is user selects a file from Browse button on oracle form - this location is on client side, and have to copy this file on Application server.
I tried using webutil_file.copy_file function but it gives error - copy_file is not a procedure or is undefined.
There is another way of Client_to_AS but it needs some changes in configuration files of webutil, which is not allowed in our scenario.
Source - client machine resident file
Target- Application server disk location
So can any one help in this regard?

Hi Francois,
Thanks for your suggestion, actually i didnt want to use Client_to_As as client doesnt want to make any changes in any configuration files, no matter how small the change is.
Anyways we are able to successfully copy the file using Client_to_AS, but one thing that i couldn't understand is why was our webutil_file.copy_file function failing?
Any hint about this?
Thanks!

How To Copy Selected Music From One Library to Another?

What is the best way to copy selected music from one library to another?
I have a big and growing iTunes library -- 33,000 songs.
A year ago I copied my library to my daughter's new iMac. Now, a year later, I'm off to visit her and wonder how best to update her library. In the past year I have added a number of items to my library and I'm sure she has done the same -- some might be the same but many will be different.
How do I update her library with the new things I've added in the past year but not wipe out things she had added or duplicate when we each have a song?
I can load any / all of my stuff on an external HD and take that to plug in to her computer. Then what? I want to avoid duplicates and make sure I get stuff like album artwork.
I'm running iTune 10.4 on an iMac with OS X 10.6.8 -- my daughter will have the same iTunes and OS X once we update her software.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks

If you're sharing the same Apple ID and all your songs are from the iTunes Store, it's easy:
In iTunes on your computer, go to File->Preferences->Store and check the box next to MUSIC under AUTOMATIC DOWNLOADS.
You should also read this article, the section titled TO DOWNLOAD PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED APPS, BOOKS, MUSIC, OR TV SHOWS TO YOUR COMPUTER:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
You could also use an rsync utility such as backuplist+ to perform a 2-way sync of the files in your two libraries while your computers are connected via FireWire with one of them in FireWire Target Disk Mode, or from your external hard drive with your daughter's computer and then to yours again. After that, you'll need to use iTunes on each computer to update its library with the new files:
http://rdutoit.home.comcast.net/~rdutoit/pub/robsoft/pages/backup.html
This last would also be the preferred method if you have authorized each other's computers for media purchased with each other's Apple IDs (i.e. you are not sharing the same Apple ID), or if you have music from sources other than the iTunes Store. Most likely, though, music from sources other than the iTunes Store would not be legal to copy in this way for this purpose, although there is probably no technical impediment.

How to copy referenced files into iPhoto library

I have a mixture of referenced files and copies in my iPhoto library. I changed now the preferences to always copy files when importing new photos. But, how can I copy the old referenced photos into my library (they are all over the place)? Is there anything like "Copy all files to the library"?

csmun
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
But, how can I copy the old referenced photos into my library (they are all over the place)? Is there anything like "Copy all files to the library"?
I'm afraid there isn't - you'll need to do it the hard way I'm afraid.
What might help is to go into the Library/Originals folder and examine the aliases there. Right click on an alias and select 'Show Original' A finder window will pop open with the Original File. Then replace the alias with the original.

How to copy a file from a folder on macbook pro

ive been trying to copy a file (a video file) from my finder to my external hard drive, drag it and stuff, but i keep getting this forbidden sign.
i'd love to get some help.
thanks.

Hi,
Normally this happens if the hard drive is either formatted in an incompatible format (like NTFS which is read only) or if you do not have permissions to write to the hard drive.
You can check the format in disk utility by selecting the external hard drive partition in the left and then down the bottom it will show the format. It should either be Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or MS-DOS FAT. If it is not you will need to erase the drive to format it.
You can check the drive permissions by right clicking (control clicking) the icon for the external hard drive, and selecting "Get Info". down the bottom in sharing and permissions, check the box that says "Ignore Ownership"
Hope this helps.

How to copy a file from one folder to another folder in Linux

Hello everyone,
Oracle forms 11g 11.1.2.0.0
OS: Oracle Linux
We use webutil to upload files to the application server from the client machine, and stores them in a folder named JOB_DOCS on the application server (This folder is created as a databse directory too). File types are JPEG, GIF, PDF, TXT, BMP, DOC, XLS etc...
At a later stage when the user tries to view the uploaded documents, this was not getting displayed on the screen
on our windows server, when the user clicks on the print button we copy the file from the JOB_DOCS folder to the forms\java folder using the below command
HOST('COPY ' ||d:\JOB_DOCS\test.pdf||' '||'c:\oracle\middleware\as\forms\java\test.pdf ,NO_SCREEN);
once the file is under the forms\java folder then it is getting displayed on the screen to print or save, and later we remove the file from forms\java folder.
But my problem here is, recently we have installed our application on Oracle Linux server, and we have JOB_DOCS folder there, and the users can upload files to this folder also. How can we copy the file test.pdf from JOB_DOCS to forms/java in linux?
And what could be the reson for the document cannot be accessed from the folder where it is saved? We tried giving folder permissions, adding the folder to PATH variable etc.

For copying and moving directories you can use the cp and mv commands just like you use them with files. Yeah, I know. If you've already tried to copy a directory with cp, you've probably noticed that cp just complains at you. Probably it says something like cp: omitting directory yadda yadda. You see, the cp command wants you to use the -r option if you want to copy a directory with its contents. The -r means "copy recursively":
$ cp -r dir1 dir2
The above creates a directory named dir2 whose contents will be identical to dir1. However, if dir2 already exists, nothing will be overwritten: the directory dir1 will be copied into the dir2 directory under the name dir2/dir1.
When renaming directories, you use the mv command exactly the same way as with files:
$ mv dir1 dir2
When dealing with directories, mv works a bit like cp does. If dir2 doesn't exist, the above will rename dir1 to dir2, but if dir2 exists, the directory dir1 will be moved into the dir2 directory under the name dir2/dir1.

How to set selected file in FileChooser showSaveDialog to default file name

Hi,
How do I set selected file in JavaFX 2.0 FileChooser showSaveDialog, so I can prompt the user with a suggested default file name?
I am converting a Java Swing application I wrote a few years ago to JavaFX 2.0.
In the Swing application, I use setSelectedFile() as follows:
JFileChooser jFileChooser = new JFileChooser();
jFileChooser.setSelectedFile(new File(backupfile));
jFileChooser.setCurrentDirectory(new File(outputDirectory));
FileFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("Comma Delimited (*.csv)", "csv");
jFileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter);
jFileChooser.setFileFilter(filter);
filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("XML Document (*.xml)", "xml");
jFileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter);
jFileChooser.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
jFileChooser.setDialogTitle("Export File");
int returnVal = jFileChooser.showDialog(jFrame, "Export");
This would show a file chooser with the file name text field pre-populated with a default backup file name.
I can't find an equivalent in JavaFX.
Also, in the Swing application, I was able to determine which extension filter was selected at run time using getFileFilter().getDescription() as follows:
String extension = jFileChooser.getFileFilter().getDescription();
if (extension.equals("XML Document (*.xml)")) { ...
I can't find an equivalent in JavaFX.
Thanks,
Barry

You can use the open sequence file method on the application manager (then you only need to wire the file path)

How to copy archivelog-files from a ASM instance to another ASM instance

Hello ,
our RAC database has to be moved to another Datacenter. The database has a size of several Terrabyte. Will will create a standby database (on a cluster) on the new datacenter (using RMAN backup). Since the RMAN backup takes rather long we would like to copy the archive logs to the new datacenter. Since the archivelog-files are stored on a dirskgroup of an asm instance we have the following question:
- how can the archivelog files get copied from the current location to the new location?

Many thanks for your answer...
As a matter of fact the archivelogs are not backuped on a filesystem. If so we would copy them from the source to the destination host (that's easy).
The question is "how to get them copied from one ASM diskgroup to another ASM diskgroup". RMAN might be a good solution - but we would need to
figure that out...
We talking about 100 GB of archivelogs a day - therefore we don't want to wait until the standby database is configured and online. To have the archivelogs
already on the new host in the new datacenter would save alot of time.What is ASM version?
The copy is peer to peer? (i.e Can you copy files from one ASM to another directly?)
