How to keep both file when paste

hi to every one
I would like to know how to keep both files have the same name when I copy one of them to the other folder , since I have tow options only : replace or skip !!!!!!!!!! in windows 8

I suspect that that's how it is supposed to be, Cyber_Defend_Team. However, I can confirm that in Windows 8.1, when I attempt to Copy and Paste files, like from my camera's SD card which starts it's numbering system at 0 each time, to my photo folder,
I only have the following options:
Replace the file in the destination
Skip this file
Compare info for both files
Now, when I choose the Compare info for both files option, I get a secondary dialogue which shows me a thumbnail of both pictures and has a checkbox for each one in two columns (there is also a checkbox at the top of each column for multiple photos to select
all in a given column). I'm given only two buttons on this screen, Continue and Cancel.
As such, Lany Zhang, I don't think that this question can be considered answered as it isn't.

Thanx in advance ,

Hello,you can create a DocumentManager class,
here is my solution in the past...
you can use static Hashtable save the xml's Document,if one application want get
a appointed Document.first,you can find it from Hashtable,if can't find it ,you

"Keep Both Files" is NO Substitute for "Do Not Replace"

Can someone please post a Terminal command sequence to disable the "Keep Both Files" option in the Finder copy dialog? It's useless to me and I've already wasted several hours trying to manually work around this bug and shut it off on my own. Anyone with a digicam hobby will quickly run into the huge drawbacks of the loss of this feature.
I routinely deal with thousands of individual files on a daily basis; the file names repeat very frequently and the files arrive from multiple sources, therefore these files do NOT all have unique identifiers and each batch can be hundreds of GB. They all need to be moved and backed up weekly or more frequently. On a daily basis I move between 250-500GB of files between directories and from devices to the computer, et cetera. Without this function there is literally not enough time in the day to carefully manage a production system, which equates to a waste of time, electricity, and brain power on mundane tasks. Who keeps their entire file tree on paper so they can refer during copying between directories?
Windows 7's mostly useless "Keep Both Files" feature has no place in a system as useful as Apple's. It really doesn't help with anything other than to offer a rubber bumper to protect inattentive people from overwriting files, which was elegantly in place up until Lion. Come on, you can't GUI someone's inattention out of the equation. If you could, would I be typing this?....
Listen, by removing the "Do Not Replace" option from the finder copy dialog, I am forced to either increase storage space--I can't believe I need to explain this, but I will say "unnecessarily" just to be redundant--or alternatively I must copy EVERY FILE???!!!! So, if only 50 files out of 1,800 need to be copied I still have to move all 1800 or sort through them one by one.
You have got to be joking. Give me a Terminal rip to kill this behavior please. This is an amazingly full-fleshed waste of time. It seems obvious enough that this is a programming SNAFU. "Do Not Replace" has been removed from the Finder copy dialogue because Lion actually cannot do both that and "Keep Both Files."
So, who knows the code for Terminal to revert this behavior to the pre-Lion days? Post that sucka!!!! A lot of people are looking for it.
I swear I will regress to Slow Leopard just for this one single feature-- and sorry ya'll, I doubt I will be the only person who can't spend all day waiting for drives to back up.

Okay, what we are griping about is called "recursive copying." There is a Terminal command for it.
A-and, the Terminal command is in bold if you already know how to do this. Otherwise, here's a primer for command-line interfacing. If you want to learn more about the cp command, type [ man cp ].
1. Open the Terminal application (in Utilities).
2. Type this code, which is a basic command for recursive copying ("do not replace" for us non-tech linguists):
cp -Rpn /originating file path/ /destination file path/
3. Hit return. If you're moving a large amount of data, say a few gigs or more, at this point the cursor will disappear and the file transfer will take place. The cursor reappears when the operation is done. You can do other things like normal on your computer at this point, but don't move or alter any of the files during the transfer (just like normal). While that cursor is gone there's a transfer going on. If you're curious if it's working (or distrustful like me), you can open a finder window at the destination to watch the files show up.
If you're wondering if you have to do all that typing, the answer is no. Type in the [ cp -Rpn ] exactly like that and then drag and drop folder 1 into the Terminal window. It'll give you a file path automatically. Then you only need to put a slash after it and then drop the folder you want to copy into onto the the Terminal window. You might have to type another slash. Hit enter.
Apologies to the person who posted this information on another site or here in the forums. I haven't found your post, but when I do I'll attribute. Many thanks!

'don't replace' vs 'keep both files'

How do I get the 'Don't replace' option presented in Snow Leopard and previous vs the 'Keep both files' found in Lion when copying duplicate files to a folder? I save copies to multiple devices and syncing them is so much slower now that I must choose replace or keep both... I'd love to have the don't replace back to retain my workflow..

Hi Everyone, I had posted about this in regards to being a photographer with limited CF card space, so I often bring my laptops to upload cards on-the-go. In this fashion it's easy to sometimes shoot on cards that have been partially uploaded or uploaded and then not reformatted and had additional files added. This is a big reason the "don't replace" was of value to me, as I am always worried about accidentally deleting work. (No judgements on my work-flow or style, I just upgraded to a markii so at the largest RAW even a 16GB o ly holds about 400 files and I usually shoot 2500 for an avg 4-6 hour event)
I did NOTICE recently that a days ted a shoot when I was transferring the last cards, when the finder popped up where it would normally list "don't replace" there were the same options as always, but this time it listed information about a duplicate file that was found. Has anyone else seen this in Lion OS?
I'm guessing this was the intention, why I didn't see it on other transfers I've done I don't know. But regardless, it only listed ONE file - which given how I shoot, would imply there are many more. So I think of I had hit "skip" it would have gone on to show me the next duplicate. This is still a big error of Lion, because it's just common sense that if this is the updated version of "don't replace" then it should list all the files that are duicates at one time.
I plan on writing Apple today about the issue, as was directed in one of the preceding posts. I also an on listing a link to this discussion - it would be GREAT if everyone else grappling with this did likewise, as I'm sure it's likely to have more of an impact.

Where are the "keep both files" located when restoring in time machine?

I just tried to restore my mac hd using time machine and selected "keep both" instead of replace. Now my mac hd has much less remaining memory and I would like to delete the duplicate files but I can't find them! Anyone know how to find them? Thanks

Hi, thanks for responding. I was trying to restore the whole mac hd not just a file, I thought it would be similar to windows but it isn't. I had 576G remaining on my mac hd now I have 147G. I can't find anything that shows mac hd 1 or original or anything obvious. I had updated a program that seemed to go wrong so I wanted to go back prior to that update. Even after the so called "restore" it didn't go back, it seems to be the same except a chunk of my 1TB internal drive is now full of a copy of the hard drive and I can't find it to delete it and get back my space. Also, I did try a proper system restore using the install disc but the most recent restore point was May 2013! I thought backing up on Time machine meant you could go back to any back up point. Any ideas on how to find the copy of the internal hard drive that is hiding somewhere on my computer? Thanks

How to keep project files small

I'm a veteran Windows and Adobe Premiere user, so I come to iMovie with that frame of reference. One thing that Premiere does that it doesn't seem that iMovie does is keep the video files separate from the project file. I captured 2 hours of a 8 mm video into iMovie. It was 24 GB. I want to create a DVD out of the entire 2 hours, but to practice, I wanted to work with only about 10 minutes of it. So I put a clip on the timeline, cut it down to 10 minutes, deleted all the clips from the clip window and saved it. The file size is 24 GB.
In Premiere, all source videos are in the format they were captured in. Within a project file, you point to the source video but it doesn't get saved with the project file. Therefore you can have lots of project files (all of which are small) but only one source video file.
Is there any way to have a second iMovie project point to another project and use it as a source? Or do you always have to save the source video file with the project file?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike, welcome to the discussion!
do you always have to save the source video file with the project file?
Your observations are spot on. iMovie HD does not "share" source files. Each project has its own files that it stores in the Media folder inside the project. As video/audio is imported to the project -- from a camera or elsewhere -- it is copied directly to the project.
(The project is not a file. It is actually a package, a special kind of folder. To look inside the package, Control-click on the project icon and choose "Show Package Contents" from the popUp menu that appears. The source files are in the Media folder.)
iMovie HD does non-destructive editing -- Media files are never modified -- so projects tend to stay large. Emptying the iMovie trash may discard clips, but not necessarily reduce the size of the project.
It helps to know how things work. Understanding the iMovie trash is important.
Media files that support the clips are never modified. In your project, you have a single 120 minute Media file. If you discard 110 minutes of your project, emptying the trash does not reduce the size of the project because of non-destructive editing. iMovie ALWAYS lets you restore that 10 minute clip back to 2 hours -- even if you Copy and Paste the clip into a different project.
The Media file itself is discarded only when the LAST clip using that Media file is discarded. If no clip uses the file when you empty the trash, it is discarded.
(In an extreme situation like yours, one option is to export the 10-minute clip to its own file, then import that file back into the project. Now you can discard the 2 hour clip.)
Note that for a project like yours, iMovie 6 has a feature that helps minimize the impact of this feature. Instead of importing the video as a single 2 hour clip, there's an iMovie 6 preference to tell iMovie to break up the video in 1 minute scenes (or whatever duration you want.) In your case, discarding 110 1-minute clips would, in fact, remove them from the project. Each clip would be the sole clip using its Media file, so discarding a clip would discard its Media file too.
This scene preference can be useful for projects like yours where scene changes aren't automatically detected as the video is imported. On modern camcorders, iMovie optionally starts a new Media file -- a new clip -- at each scene break. Later, when you discard that clip, its Media file goes out with it.
As you Copy and Paste clips from one project to another, iMovie applies the same rules as importing. Copying a clip and Pasting it into another project copies its entire Media file to the project.
That happens each time you Copy and Paste a clip. It's important, therefore, to Copy and Paste all the clips you want at the same time. Then iMovie figures out which Media files need to be copied and copies each one just one time. Otherwise, if you Copy and Paste clips separately, iMovie may copy that Media file again.
Note that the Pasted clip inherits all the non-destructive features it has in the original project.
There's pros and cons to this whole approach, of course. One important pro is that you don't have to worry about accidentally discarding a video file in a central cache that the project relies on. Non-destructive editing also helps avoid corruption problems that plagued earlier versions of iMovie as Media files were modified.
Fortunately, as FireWire drives have become cheap the problem isn't so much of a problem when you think about it.

Lightroom won't ask how to edit a file when I select "edit in Photoshop CS6"

Yesterday Lightroom suddenly stopped asking how I want the file edited when I select "edit in Photoshop". I opens the file directly in Photoshop without asking do I want to "edit with Lightroom changes", "edit a copy", or "edit original".
I've tried finding a setting to turn this on or off and found nothing. I've tried shutting down. I've even tried removing and reloading both Photoshop and Lightroom. As far as I can tell it has defaulted to always opening with LR edits.
I'm using Lightroom 5.3 and Photoshop CS6 extended version 13.0. I ran updates on both after reloading yesterday. I'm using the Mac versions of the software.
Please help!

Is it possible that you've switched to using Raw (or DNG) files? There is a different process when using a Raw file versus using a rendered file such as Jpeg, Tiff, PSD....and it's only the latter file-types which will prompt the "Edit a copy, Edit original, etc" question. If the ACR levels are compatible (which they will be if your ACR plug-in for PS CS6 is up-to-date) then there will be NO question when using "Edit In...." on a Raw/DNG file, the file is rendered automatically in the background by Photoshop's ACR plug-in, when you then "Save" in PS the now-rendered file (Tiff or PSD, depending on your external editing preference setting) will appear back in Lightroom.

How to include external files when building installer for a standalone executable?

Hi,
I was trying to build a stand alone executable from my Labview project and I was able to do it successfully. Now I would like to include a few external .txt files in the installer. Those .txt files have parameters/constants that will be used by the program, and my program needs to load/read them when running. For now I have to manually copy/paste them into the target machine, but I really hope the installer can do it automatically. I see there is a "data" folder in the installer, and that's where I hope those .txt files can be added into.
How can I do it? Can anyone give me some suggestions? Thanks!

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Norbert,
I could not find "Add file" when right clicking the project. See attached image please. Under "Project" I do have a "Add to project" but there is no option for external files. I did not find "Source" location either.
What did i do wrong? Is there any version requirement here? I have a 2010 base version. Thanks for your help.
Rgds,

How to keep all files in differents browsers

I use differents browsers how to keep the bookmarks organised in all of them ?
Is better url manager or Bookit ?
Thanks

What del.icio.us would do is make all bookmarks you create there available to any browser on any computer you happen to be using. It will not give you the same set of bookmarks in each of your browsers. I mentioned it because it has become a popular way of keeping bookmarks which is not dependant on any one browser and is available even when you are not on your own computer.
The bookmark/url managers would be the better way to go to actually manage the bookmarks in your various managers. With them being shareware, you can try them out to see it they fit your needs before you would have to pay for them. The two I mentioned both got high user ratings on VersionTracker. You might be able to find other url managers there as well. It has been a while since I tried any url managers myself, so I cannot give a personal recommendation on any of these programs.

How to keep photo order when opening default photo app?

First it concerns the default photo App: I have created an Album based on recent photos imported from the cloud, there are 125 photos in them, for some reason they are in the wrong order, i.e. by date. I know how to rearrange one photo at a time, but it's painfully slow to go through all 100s of them.
Second, there is the iPhoto App: I downloaded iPhoto app from the iWork suite, that came free for me, it gave me an option to sort photos by date, hooray!
BUT!! when I close iPhoto and reopen the default photo app, the photos were no longer sorted, it was the same order before the sort!
My question is, how on earth do I sort an album in iPhoto and to keep that order when I open the album through the default photo app or indeed any other app that uses the iOS albums such as facebook etc?

As far as i know, you can't, when using iphoto, the sort is only for iphoto, apps on ios do not have access to one anothers data, ever, you can transfer a file from one app to another app that supports the file format but then you have two independent copies of that file.

How to keep the highlight when the JTextComponent lose focus?

I wanted to do some basic copy/cut/paste on the JTextPane from the Menu. But when I selected the menu, the highlight disappeared. How do keep the highlight?
The only topic I found about this was here:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=214931
but it appeared intimidating and not exactly what I needed.

Most javax objects will accept things in <html> tags why don't you try setting them onto the JTextPane (never tried this btw but should be worth a try) using html and the transferring the same syntax to the output email

Ical keeping both events when I move events from one google calendar to another

Hi all!
I use multiple google calendars and sync them with my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Air. I like to move events from one calendar to another (for color coding purposes), and am coming across a unique issue that I hope someone has a solution to.
When I edit an event by moving the event from one calendar to another the events show up correctly on the iPhone and iPad, but not in my iCal on MacBook Air. (Only when I make the changes on my iPhone and iPad). For example, when I switch an event originally created in my 'appointments' calendar to my 'done' calendar the event shows up appropriately on iPhone and iPad, and even in my Google calendars on the web. But, the iCal on my MacBook Air keeps both events. This only happens when I make the changes from the iPhone or iPad. If I make calendar changes on my computer, then there are no hiccups on any of the devices.
It seems like a syncing issue with iCal, and I can't figure out how to prevent the duplications in my iCal on my computer from showing up. Quite annoying because I have to go in and delete all of the duplicated events on the computer at the end of the day.
I have the Mavericks OS on my MBA and the software on my iPad and iPhone are updated to the latest software.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know! Thanks!

Petrill,
Thank you. I was trying to do that yesterday, but it was grayed out. It seemed to work alright today.
Thanks,

How to keep PDF file clear once its been reduced in size

Does anyone know how to keep you PDF file resolution as clear as u originally placed it once you reduce the size of its properties?

Obviously if you reduce the resolution of the images, or compress them more sharply, you can lose quality. It is up to you to experiment with the settings to find a compromise between size and quality. There is no magic bullet.
