How to replace a file in an archive without extracting?

Hello, I need to open up an archive and replace one file with the other. As archive file is and actual .ipa file (I'm just changing its type), I don't want to extract it and then re-zip it and rename it to .ipa.
It's beyond simpleness on Windows OS, but on a Mac you can only see content of an archive and extract any chosen one, but not replacing it directly.
Maybe there are simple terminal commands to do so?
Thank you.

man zip

How to replace event file AND replace edits in timeline

Is it possible to replace a video/file in an event, and in turn replace what it was used for in the timeline? For example, if I used some footage from an event and I cut i up 3 times in a project and added transitions and effects, is it possible to replace the file in the event with a new file (same length) and have the same cuts/transitions/effects applied to the new file in the timeline?
I hope my question is clear. I've been trying to do this in the original media folder but with no luck.
Thanks!

hit cmd-c in the Project to copy the clip('s settings)
select the new clip in the Event
drag on old clip, select one of the replace-options
select replaced clip, cmd-alt-v, apply effects/colors/…
I would NEVER dare to 'fumble' with the internal file-structure of a data-base (=FCPX)
Yeah I've learned that the hard way. I'll probably never do that again. Anyways, I didn't think about copying the clips settings. That definently works. I guess what I was looking for (or dreaming of) was some kind of automatic way. In After Effects and I believe premiere, you can right-click on a file in the "Event" folder and it will replace it the project as well automatically. I don't think anything like this exists for FCP however. I'm pretty sure the only way would to wait for apple to add something like this, or create some kind of script/plugin/automater. Any ideas?

How to display a file from Application server without downloading it to local drive

I want to dispaly a file from Application server without downloading it to my local system.
i tried the below method but it didn't work.
     CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>EXECUTE
      EXPORTING
        APPLICATION            = L_FILE
        DEFAULT_DIRECTORY      = L_DIR

Hi,
Use open dataset to read file from application server.
try like this sample code:
data : p_file like ibipparms-path.
data : rec(350) type c.
data: g_delimiter(1) type c value ','.
maintain the file path in p_file. then
open dataset p_file for input in text mode encoding default.
   IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
do n times.
READ dataset p_file into rec.
split rec at g_delimiter into your internal table fields like it-id it-name it-age.
append it.
clear it.
enddo.
close dataset p_file.
Now you have the data in internal table it.

How to use database file within jar archive

Hi. I'm quite new in Java programming, and I'm wondering if what I did makes sense or not.
In my applet I'm using a MS Access Database file, which is contained in the same Jar Archive like the Applet class file. I tried and tried to use this Database file directly but it wouldn't work. Than I read in some other forum that it is not possible to use the database file directly within the archive. First question: Is that true?
Than I desided to extract the DB file in the init() method of my applet to the default temporary foulder. When the program is closed I use the destroy() method to delete it again. Everything works well now. But is this the typical way this is done?
Thanks for help!

Hi,
here is the code which extracts the database file out of the jar archive (the same archive in which the class file is):
//get the user temporary folder
File TempFolder = new File(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"));
//create (empty) db file
efile = new File(TempFolder, "steelSections.mdb");
// if database file is not yet extracted
if (!efile.exists()) {
//get an input stream for the database file
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(
"FaST/db/steelSections.mdb"));
//create an output stream for the db file on the file system
OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(efile));
//-Buffer to copy the data
byte[] buffer = new byte[2048]; //buffer to copy the binary
for (;;) {
int nBytes = in.read(buffer); //read data
if (nBytes <= 0)
break; //no more data to read
out.write(buffer, 0, nBytes); //write data
out.flush(); //close out and in streams
out.close();
in.close();
If you have the db file in an other jar archive file you need a referenze to the entry in the other jar archive. I'm not sure how to get this, but I'm sure you fill find a solution by searching in this forum...
Good luck!

How to replace multiple files in same location Indesign CS6

Hi everyone please help me with this challenge if you are avialable it will be greatly appreciated!
Ok I have a spread of about 60 pages in indesign. I created a template where I have differnt PDFs in each section. I have 3 different PDFs per page totalling about 180 different PDF docs in my in design file. Every week I have to go in to replace those PDFs with the new ones. They have to be in the exact same place and sized the same way since they are setup to print on one of our printers. In indeesign CS3 I would just do Command D and then I would select all 180 PDF documents. It would import all of them and I would just click on each area of the PDF holding down "Option" and it would automatically size the PDF to fit in the same way the previous PDF was. Basically just replacing it. I did this for all 180 relatively simple. Now that feature is gone! I can't for hte life of me figure out how to do this. I've tried everything and it's not working.
Can any one help me?

Make Object style to your frames and setting the Frame Fitting Options>Fitting
Also try: tomaxxiPlace2 script, i test it with indesign cs6 and it work fine.

How to view Retrieved file in DMS Archiving.

Dear All,
My client is specific about DIR Archiving. Now the scenario is DIR has been marked for Deletion and archived and Stored in a repository successfully. After Archiving DIR has been deleted from the Database.
Now using SARA Transaction using "Storage System" archived file has been Retrived and File name has been created in Archive Administration. System is displaying File name, Logical path and Physical File name. Below Physical File name it is showing "Archive File is accessable".
When I check using T-code CV02N Nothing is Displayed.
Please guide me how to see the Retrived File. My client wants to see the DIR with attched originals.
Please let me know if any configuration is required.
with regards,
S.Dayanand

HI Dayanand,
Execute SARA transaction. You can set a deletion flag for document info records that you no longer require for managing
documents and their original application files. Archiving object CV_DVS enables you to archive these document info records. After the archiving run, you can delete the archived document info records.
The document info records that you archive and delete with archiving object CV_DVS are
identified by the following data:
Document,Document type,Document part, Version
Follow the steps
1. Goto DIR which u want to archive and set them deletion indicator On from document tab
2.Go to transaction CVAR and create Varient for DMS.
3. Select the selected Varient
4. Click on Start date
5. slect the start time for writing,You can choose immediate or schedule later also
6. Select spool parameters, give output device and press procced, now archiving job wil be scheduled
7. Now u can check scheduled job by clicking Shift + F4 in same transaction
8. Select the job & click on Joblog
9. Note down The archiveing session no. is 0000xxx
10. Now execute transaction CVRE and enter read program as DVSARCH3 and execute
11.Provide the archiving session Number 0000xxx and execute u get archived document list.
12. For deleting archived documents execute CVLO transaction, Select the archived file
13. Select the No 0000xxx. & click on Continue
14. Select the start date,You can choose immediate or schedule later also
15. Enter spool parameter and execute
16. Now deleting job will be scheduled,
17. Check the DIR in CV02n, u wont get those archived DIRs
Hope this will solve your query

How to replace a file in Finder

I am trying to back up my iPhoto library, which lives in an external hard drive (My Passport) to my Seagate external hard drive. Usually, I can go in Finder and drag and drop the most recent Library over-top of the backup. A pop-up will appear asking if I want to replace the existing file (yes) and the backup takes like 5 or 6 hours... I have 300 GB of pics.
With OS X Yosemite, when I drag the file and drop it in the backup hard drive, it doesn't recognize that there is already a file with the same name, so it tries to make room to add the new library, when in reality I want it to replace the existing (outdated) backup.
I downloaded this for the Seagate external, which hasn't proved useful http://www.seagate.com/support/external-hard-drives/desktop-hard-drives/backup-p lus-desk/ntfs-driver-for-mac-os-master-dl/
and I tried holding down Option, and Command, then dragging... nope. I can't figure out how to get it to replace, or merge, the files. It just tries to keep putting it in as a separate file.
Please help!

OS X cannot write to an NTFS formatted drive. Whatever driver you got from Seagate probably doesn't work with the version of OS X you have. Is there any reason you could not reconfigure the drive for OS X? If you can the first thing you will need to do is to reformat that drive to MSDOS (FAT.) It's best to do that on a PC, but you can try reformatting it on your Mac using Disk Utility and setting the Format type to MSDOS. It may take a couple of tries. Once you get it formatted for FAT, then you can repartition and reformat the drive for OS X.
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
If you need to use the drive on a PC, too, then I suggest using NTFS 12.1.62.

How to replace a file with itself copied and corrected in AE

I stabilized the files already in the FCPX timeline with AfterEffects, and exported in a new folder, same lenght and filename than the original, just prores422 instead of h264.
What is the best way to replace those in the timeline with these new corrected files ? (making sure they will be positioned as they were before).
Thank you

Do you still have the original timecode on the file that came from AE? If yes, use reveal in browser to find the timecode at the beginning of the clip in the timeline. Import the AE output file. Go to the matching timecode, mark an In and drag to the timeline onto the clip to Replace from start.

How to replace .VSD file in KM

Hi
i have to change an image in KM content. i tried following steps:
Content mangmnt>document>content manager> my folder..
There i find folder(consists of some images) and some html files .Each html file has some folder associated with it, that particular folder carry the images used in html code.
now the image that i need to change is an .vsd file.The same image is saved as .jpg in the related folder .They have given the path in xml code to drag the .vsd file,
now the pbm is that i am not able to debug the path And i found out if i delete the whole xml, the image is still coming.
so where the image it is taken from ???. i did all hit nd trial but unsuccessful.
Please help if anyone knows..
thanx
Disha

Hi Disha,
If i have understood you correctly, the image is part of a html document and has a img file ext .jpeg instead of .vsd.
If this is the case, go to Content Admin - KM Content - your folder.
Select the html file and click on the context menu next to the file name. Now click on "Edit Online" and open the same with a "Text Editor"
Search for your img file name in the same and replace the path with the actual path of your vsd file.
You can find the path of your vsd file (if avl in the portal) in the Details - Properties section of the file.
Note: Try clearing the browser cache if the changes you have made doesnt get reflected.
Hope this helps.

venkat.

How to replace media files to pre-existing FCP, retain edits?

Here's the gist: I accidentally imported footage from 2 tapes as DV instead of HDV. I didn't notice this until the project was more or less done, but I need it to be HDV.
Basically I have 2 files set up as a multiclip that toggles between each other. I figured once I re-captured the new HDV footage and designated the same IN points as the previous DV footage, my EDL in the Final Cut project would sync. This is not happening.
My theory is that I didn't set any IN\OUT points prior to capturing the video, so my time code is not aligning.
Can anyone think of what to try so I don't have to re-edit the entire project from scratch?

You can use regular ATA drives in the G4 (I have 4 in my mirror drive door G4 for a total of 820gb).
I wouldn't use Media Manager in this case. Just do a simple drag/copy from one to the other, copying the MOST important files first. Remember, you can always recapture or rerender so those file may be sacrificed if you're running out of time.
Try to set up the exact same folder structure on the new drive - it may help FCP reconnect the media quicker, especially if you get another Firewire drive and give it the same name as the old one (once you disconnect the old one).
If FCP does have a problem reconnecting, check the box where is ask to "Reconnect Manually" then navigate to the new file. When you reconnect the first one, click the box that says "Connect all offline files in relative path" (or something close to that) and FCP should be able to find the remaining files on its own.

Change file in Zip archive without repacking

Hi All,
I have Zip archive. It contains ~100000 files. I needed to change only one file, without repacking all Zip archive.
How can I do this? Do smb have such situations?

You can't, using Java. I think that there are 3rd-party products that can. Try searching for one.

How can I create files in unicode format without "byte order mark"?

Hello together,
I have to export files in UTF-8 format and have to send them to another partner system which works with linux as operating system.
I have tried the different possibities to create files with ABAP. But nothing works 100% how I want.
Some examples:
1.)
OPEN DATASET [filename] FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8.
If I create a file in this way and download it from application server to local system the result for file format in a unicode text edior like NotePad is "ANSI AS UTF-8". This means I have no BYTE ORDER MARK inside.
But it is also possible that the file format is only ANSI if the file contains no "special characters", isn't it?
In my test cases I create 3 files. 2 of them has format "ANSI AS UTF-8", and one only "ANSII".
After transfer to Linux I get as result 2 times UTF8 and one time ASCII as file format.
2.)
OPEN DATASET [filename] FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8 WITH BYTE ORDER MARK.
With this syntax the result in local editor looks like ok. I get as format really "UTF-8".
But I get problems with the system which receives the files.
All files has the file format UTF-8 on Linux but the interface / script can not read the file with BYTE ORDER MARK.
This is a very big problem for me.
Do anybody of you know if it possible to force creation in UTF-8 without a BYTE ORDER MARK?
This means more or less the first example but all files should have UTF-8 format!
Thanks in advance
Christian

This means it is not possible to create a pure unicode file without the byte order mark?
You wouldn't happen to know how a file with byte order mark should read on a Linux system?
Or if this possible or not?

Christian
