How to index files/folders?

I'd like to index all the stuff I have in certain folders and backup DVDs, and save it as a word file (or text). Is there any simple way to do this? Any utility or trick? Thanks.

There are disk cataloging programs. Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Cloaking files / folders still appear in Files List, how hide cloaked files / folders?

Is there anyway to actually hide the folders and files that are set to cloaked within a dreamweaver local site within the files list?
I don't see it in the help file http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7e9fa .html
or in any options I have found so far.
I have several projects that fork off of a base project and some files I move to seperate folders within a site to get them out of the way. In Dreamweaver I set these folders and files to Cloaked.
In the files list for the local files these cloaked items are now crossed with a red line but it would be better if I could remove them from displaying in the files list too without actually removing the files from
the hard disk or from the current directories structure.
I have other editors that allow this feature and it is really nice.
I am using DW Creative Cloud version 12, the latest and greatest version. I may go back to my other editors but wanted to try DW as an editor to see how the workflow goes.
Any ideas here or is this a new feature request that needs to be made?

I switched back to the other editors I have been using one is something I purchased from another company they are MUCH MUCH easier to use than dreamweaver for hand coding. I like the idea of having real time or some what real experience with a live version of my site within the editor but dreamweaver is too buggy to use for me in a real world design situation with heavy use of server side code in my case php and mysql. The live view just can't handle it.
For example I have a session based site which defaults to a login page, the live view actually refuses to work for this process and the embeded files are not correctly being displayed in part due to dreamweaver not being able to keep up with real time situations.
I really don't want my information shared all over the place so I wont be submitting a feature request officially for that reason, after skimming through the form and legal info I am dubious my information wont be published all over the net if I give my personal information in the form.
The hiding of cloaked items in the file list is really a basic thing which can be done through notepad ++ , PSPad and the commercial editor I use from JetBrains. I am not really suprised DW does not have this feature as it never did but I was curious about how it has progressed and it seems to be ok for visual layout design but I personally find it very hard to use for heavy duty coding.
Thank you.

TREX ABAP Client: How to index file content?

Hello Colleagues,
We have installed TREX search engine and writing own solution by using ABAP Client. Everything is ok except files content like XLS, DOC and so on. When we try to post binary content to the FM TREX_EXT_INDEX it is not processed by TREX and only attributes search is available. I think something wrong with data types.
Test example:
data lt_data type table of char100.
data l_size type i.
data lt_doc type trext_index_docs.
data ls_doc type trexs_index_doc.
call function 'GUI_UPLOAD'
    exporting
      filename   = 'D:test.xls'
      filetype   = 'BIN'
    importing
      filelength = l_size
    tables
      data_tab   = lt_data.
ls_doc-doc_key = '00001'.
ls_doc-doc_langu = 'EN'.
ls_doc-doc_type = 'B'.
ls_doc-mime_type = 'application/excel'.
call function 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING'
    exporting
      input_length = l_size
    importing
      text_buffer = ls_doc-content
    tables
      binary_tab   = lt_data.
append ls_doc to lt_doc.
call function 'TREX_EXT_INDEX'
    exporting
      i_index_id            = me->index_id
      i_rfc_destination     = me->rfc_dest
      i_index_document_list = lt_doc.
Document is indexed without content. Why?

Hi Evgeni,
I realise this is a little late, but just in case you are still interested - or anyone else out there is:
Basically somewhere internally the FM 'TREX_EXT_INDEX' does the following with your ls_doc-content:
l_xstring = p_content_in. "(p_content_in == ls_doc-content)
If you look at the conversion rules in ABAP the xstring then expects the string to contain only the characters '0-9A-F'. Which your string does not have after calling the FM SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING.
Thus you have to format your ls_doc-content differently. Basically you need to move the hex characters in your xstring into 'real characters'. Which will expand the string massively.
We solved the problem using the following Form:
form conv_content using value(raw_content) type string
               changing content            type string.
data: lv_char   type c,
        lv_string type string.
field-symbols: type x.
clear content. " init output.
while raw_content is not initial.
    lv_char = raw_content(1).
    assign lv_char to casting.
    lv_string = .
    concatenate content lv_string into content in character mode respecting blanks.
    shift raw_content left.
endwhile.
endform.
Not exactly efficient, but you can call it just as you would call the FM SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING (except you don't need the filesize). Then the TREX will index your MS-Office documents as long as they are not of type Office 2007 or newer. In that case there is another bug, where the mime_type you pass in the interface is only 50 Chars long - which is too short to fit the full docx mime type for example.
Regards,
Robin

How to access Files / Folders on Mac from XP Laptop Using wireless network?

Hello, I have successfully set up my iMac and XP laptop to access the web via a wireless router. However I am wondering if there is a way for me to wirelessly connect to my files and folders on the Mac from the XP laptop? I am going nuts trying to figure this out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can find lots of useful information on iFelix's page "Sharing files between a Windows XP PC and a Mac running OS 10.4.x".
If the folder you want to share isn't viaible, you can use SharePoints to make any folder available to share.

How to make files/folders get updated ACLs by inheritance when you move in same volume?

Hi everyone!
I'm having some issues with my W2008R2 file server (using DFS). The problem is: when an user connected to a file server share (using W7 box), moves (drag and drop) files or folders from one folder to another in the same volume of the server, the ACLs are
not automatically updated by the ACLs of the new parent folder, I mean, it is not inheriting the new ACLs from the new parent folder.
I've read this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310316
but it says:
Make sure that the user account that is used to move the object has the Change Permissions permission set. If the permission is not set, grant the Change
Permissions permission to the user account.
Users have the "Modify" permission set in both folders (the permissions are granted to Domain Local Groups of AD, which users are members of). As you know, "Modify" permission does not grant users the ability to "change permissions",
which is correct, because you don't want users to have the ability to modify permissions in file server.
The question is: is there a way to fix this issue and to get ACLs automatically updated?
Thanks!

Good point! I didn't think about that...
Anyway, in my case, the scenario you mention would be better, because files would always have permissions inherited from the parent folder they are located. Users could use the "trick" you pointed out to modify files, but that is not of the concern of a file
server administrator, I think.
In conclusion, what is the best way or best practice to set permissions in a DFS file server environment?
Thanks again!

How to organise files/folders by size

Hi,
I am currently using Mac OS X Version 10.7.4 and have been warned that I'm running out of space on the HD so I have opened up Finder and arranged the folders by size order so that i can get rid of the larger files first. The largest folder was the Desktop folder but I have now emptied the desktop of everything and emptied the trash but it still says that it's the largest folder and is placed underneith the "From 10GB to 1TB" subheading. I have changed the arrangment from Size to Name and then back to size again to see if it would reset but Desktop is still listed as the largest folder. I have also restarted the computer but still no change.
What obvious thing amn I doing wrong?
If you nee anymore details about this system then please feel free to ask and I'll try to provide you with the information that you require.
I know it's not the end of the world, but it would be handy to find out why this is happening.
Thank you in advance for your help.

For this particular task, the Finder is a clumsy and unreliable tool. There are a number of tools designed for exactly this task. One of the best (which is now free) is OmniDiskSweeper.

HOW MUCH MUSIC FILES/FOLDERS CAN A 160 GIG HD HOLD

I was just wondering because I need to buy a new HD and I cant really afford something thats alot of doe, so i was looking at the Lacie extreme 160 gig. I just want to know how much cant it hold.

It can hold a bit less than 160 gigs.
If a typical project of yours is about 10 gigs, that's sixteen songs.
If a typical project of yours is about 1.6 gigs, that's 100 songs.
Seriously, no-one can answer this but you.

How to organize files in 'Folder'

Hi everyone, I always use 'Folder' to listen to my music. Primarily because the Jam doesn't recognize more than 2000 songs which forces me to use the Folder option if I want to listen to most of my albums. My problem is the order in which the files are organised within the 'Folder'. The files, currently, are ordered partially alphabetical en partially at random. I have no idea why some albums are ordered 1-2-3-4-5-6 alphabetically and others go 3-4-2-6-1-5.Has anyone found out how to manipulate files/folders/documents within the folder into (alphabetical) order? Sincerely, Someone who misses his clip+

I assume that the Jam, like the Sport, organizes folders and files by when they were added as vs. otherwise (apart from when you are using the database). A way to counteract this is to use a program like FAT Sorter periodically, which in essence sorts the files then there anew. This may help you with at least part of your issue.

Loop Browser - Removing files/folders not indexed in the Apple Loops Index

Hi...
I experimented with dragging in a SFX folder to the Logic Pro Loop Browser window. It asked me if I wanted to copy files to the Apple Loops folder or reference the original files, and I selected reference the originasl files.
The SFX files were then listed under the OTHER area of the View menu.
Question... HOW do I remove these SFX files/folder from the OTHER view menu?
I have tried deleting all of the Apple Loop Index files and that did not work.
I have tried deleting the actual SFX files/folders, and after they disappear, but when I restore the SFX files/folders to their source location they reappear in the logic browser view menu.
Is there some where else Logic stores Loop Browser reference data which can be deleted to remove these OTHER files/folders from the Loop Browser view menu?
Thanks

Success...
OK I found the solution.
1) I deleted the SFX audio files from the referenced HDD source location.
2) I opened Logic and re-index the Loop Browser.
3) I quit Logic and copied the SFX files back to the HDD.
When I opened Logic this time, the SFX files/folders referenced under the OTHER menu were gone.
Because I have a huge production music & SFX library, the best way to audition these sources for use in a Logic project, is to audition in iTunes and then just drag whatever I need right from within itunes into the Logic project.
That keeps my Logic loop browser more manageable and focused on composing.

How to stop iTunes index files (*.itl) from backing up onto office server ?

Several of us new iPod users on my office LAN have been plagued by iTunes' unasked decision to locate its index files (I.e. iTunes Library.itl and itunes Music Library.xml) at
\My Documents\My Music\iTunes.
Why is this annoying? Because, for example, when I
a) dock my notebook at work, to be my desktop or
b) log on to the work server from home via broadband
I have to wait while Windows synchronises those files with the copies on the server, (at \\bsecfs\users\bjc18\My Documents\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\.
This
1) wastes server space, 2) wastes my time and broadband costs by extending the synchronisation and 3) adds no functionality to my life - it is personal data and I want it all on my C: drive.
Another colleague found the library got placed on her Desktop and therefore the entire Library was synchronised into the server copy of her user profile. The LAN Manager was aghast!
I consider it impertinent of iTunes to choose where these files shall be placed.
QUERY: How can I instruct iTunes to place (or to move) those two files onto my notebooks C; drive where all the music lives?

I consider it impertinent of iTunes to choose where
these files shall be placed.
It's not impertinent, it's the Microsoft recommended practice. User specific files go into the My Documents folders. In iTunes case, the My Music folder is the logical place to put them.
QUERY: How can I instruct iTunes to place (or to
move) those two files onto my notebooks C; drive

You can't. iTunes always puts the library files into the "My Music/iTunes" folder.
You can, however, change the location of the My Music folder. This is a folder specified in the registry. If you use TweakUI for Windows XP (google for it, it's on Microsoft's site), and change the location of the "My Music" special folder, then the library will be put there instead.

Files/folders created in Windows share are read-only... why and how to fix?

Client: MacBook Pro running 10.7.5
Server: Windows 7 desktop
I'm sharing a folder from the Windows 7 machine and mounting it on my Mac using Finder's "Connect to Server..." and an smb:// URI. I'm providing a user ID/password for an account on the Windows 7 box that has full control over the shared folder, via smb://userid:password@server/share.
The volume mounts properly on my desktop, can I can see files/folders there as expected. However:
If I create a folder, it's read-only. I cannot create any files inside (or even see inside), rename the folder, or delete the folder. The folder has a badge: red circle with bar.
If I create a file, it's read-only. I cannot rename it, delete it or edit it.
If I examine File Info via Finder on any of these files or folders, under Sharing & Permissions it says "You have custom access."
If I try to delete these files/folders, I get error code -8072. I can delete them from the command-line, but I can't otherwise manipulate them.
I've verified on the Windows box that the user ID I'm using has full control of the folder. I've also set it so Everyone has full control, with no difference.
This seems to have been a recent change in behaviour (a few weeks ago I was copying data to this drive, no problem), and it's driving me crazy because I can't figure out how to fix it.

L145:
It is always good counsel to Repair Disk Permissions (from the internal HDD) before and after any new installation.
To change permissions in our Applications Folder:
Select Applications Folder.
Get Info (Command + i)
Go down to Ownership & Permissions
Click on arrow next to Details to expand.
Click on lock and authenticate
Owner is system
Group is admin
Change all permissions to Read & Write except Others
Other can Read only.
Please do not hesitate to post back should you have any further questions or comments.
Good luck.

How to create index file for pdf.

Hello,
I need to create a plugin which will read a list of pdf files and then create a full text index with catalog. I searched on net and came to know about the catalog plugin which does this work.In AV layer there is a catalog object but I am unable to find any example on net which uses the catalog object to create the pdx file and a support folder(contains idx files).
I also read the java script documentation but there was no example for creating index.We can build index but for that we need to retrieve the index object first.
Can somebody please giude me.
Thanks!

Hi Irosenth,
Is it possible to use DOM/IAC to create index files. The example given in SDK(SearchPdfVB) allows us to add,remove,enable and disable index files. But there is no method given in example to create an index file.
I want to create index file and the supporting folder which contains .idx files automatically ie through code. Is it possible to do so??
I also looked into the AVCommands but couldn't understand how to create the index files using AVCommands.
Can you please guide me.
Thanks!!
