HT202905 Applescript is exporting folders with a space after the foldername.

Applescript is exporting folders with a space after the foldername. This is causing problems with an FTP upload of ours. Is there a way to ensure Applescript doesn't insert spaces on the end of folder names?
Thank you!

i bought a used 2 year old macbook pro last week did an erase and install with leopard and once that was done with nothing transfered firewire the drive had over 20 gigs of used space on it so i started snooping around and saw a number of folders in a folder labeled base system that have a solid red circle with a white dash in the middle next to them after clicking on them it says i do not have permission even though i am in under admin?
the fact that you are an admin doesn't mean that you automatically have access to everything. those folders are owned by the system and have restricted permissions. you should not mess with them. those permissions are mostly restricted to prevent curious users with itchy fingers from damaging the system. as an admin user you can change those permissions and give yourself access to those folders but as i said you shouldn't.
any ideas to what it is what to do or why it took over 20 gigs to install?
20 Gigs sounds like a bit too much. have you installed any programs besides leopard itself?

Create a list style with unique space after the last list item?

I should start by saying that I'm a web designer and therefore extremely used to using CSS for type setting to the point that I now become frustrated when going back to the print world
So here's what I'm trying to achieve:
- I want to create a list style for bullet lists
- I want there to be 3pt space after and space before paragraph breaks
- I want there to be 9pt space after the entire list (or last list item)
I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this short of overriding the space after amount on the last item each time I use my style.

Hi supportneeder
Welcome to the forum.

Pay attention to how +"styles work by example"+. Form up the list levels the way you want them and then select them to make the list style.
Personally I can't help remarking on the obtuse behavior of programmers that they manufactured all the problems on the internet and only now, more than a decade later, patch together "solutions" they struggle to implement due to the legacy of all the awful standards we never needed to have in the first place.

btw The last list item is always a problem in typesetting. Usually you deal with it by having a particular style for that or the paragraph afte,r all of which can take multiple forms.

Folders with forward slashes in the name not appearing in Mail.app Exchange

Has anybody else seen this? For folders with forward slashes in the name, such as "Meetings/Events", the folder shows up in Outlook Web Access and over Exchange in Entourage 2008, but not Exchange over IMAP with Mail.app in Snow Leopard. The folder shows up once I remove the forward slashes, such as "Meetings Events" or "Meetings-Events" or "Meetings and Events".
Is this a known issue, and is there a fix besides renaming the folders?

In Unix the forward slash is an illegal character for a filename. In general you should avoid using it as the forward slash is used in path names such as /Folder/File. Avoid using the colon as well because it's commonly used as part of a disk identifier in OS X.
This is not any different than avoiding the backslash in Windows filenames.

Thanks, Flex harUI, for the direction in regards to isolating build changes. That aside (still working on it), can you offer any direction in regards to my original question on SDK and AIR compatibility? I'm specifically looking for a version compatibility mapping or anything that definitively states, "Flex SDK x.y.z works with the following versions of AIR". This information is crucial for us in order to more specifically plan our own roadmap built upon these two frameworks as we consider both existing installations of our software and future distributions.

Playing a DRM (FMRMS) protected .flv with a space in the filename fails on OS X

As the subject says, when trying to play a DRM encrypted .flv with a space in the filename it fails on OS X it works on Windows and I am 99% sure it works on Linux as well.
I changed my files to not include a space but it appears now that if there is a space in any part of the path as well it fails.
If anyone has an idea on what to do it would be appreciated.
I have tried to use the File.nativePath and File.url properties after confirming that File.exists returns true.
I tried escaping the spaces manually with + and %20 but none seem to work.
The error is that the file just doesn't seem to play. I will update this question if I find any more information.
Thanks
Glen.

Firefox 3 cannot download files with white space in the filename

When opening attachments in e-mail Firefox is unable to handle files with white space in the name. This is not the same as the white space file name truncation problem documented on this site (where file names with white space are truncated on saving.) The issue is that the browser will prompt to allow the file to be saved, but it will not prompt to open the file as an option. If I rename the file to remove white space then I do receive the "Open with..." dialog box. I verified that Firefox 2 did not have this problem and I can open attachments with white space in the file names just fine using that version of the browser (2.0.0.20).
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upgraded to version 3

When a user clicks on an attachment with spaces, the filename is truncated to the first whitespace. While IE, Chrome & Safari handle this, Firefox refuses to accept mime headers with unquoted filename parameters. According to Firefox's bugzilla/knowledgebase, Firefox's behavior is the correct behavior and it's a problem with most webservers or web applications. This problem can be easily corrected by surrounding the filename parameter with double quotes.
Eg.
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + fileName + "\"");

I'm in iPhone 5. I transfer photos to a Windows 7 PC, using the USB cable. Lately, the photos are appearing in Windows Explorer within monthly folders, with gibberish titles. The folder names will be 8 random letters and numeric characters. I tend to let photos build up, so there are about 2 years worth of these monthly folders… Between 20 and 25. This is a huge hassle… I'm unable to tell what months are in each folder, by the folder name.… Have to open each folder to see which month is in there. I want to be able to look at all the photos on the iPhone in one view, as I was able to in the past. How do I stop this foldering of photos, by months?? Thank you. BC

I have the same issue. I searched and finally got only one answer is -- Apple suggest customer using iMAC to transfer and backup photos instead of Windows. How great the solution is it!

Change Filenames with blank spaces in the Filename

I want to change many filenames with blank spaces and replace
blank spaces with underbar character.
Example:
File One change to File_One
File Two change to File_Two
Here is my script:
for file in `ls`
do
i=`ls -1 *" "*`
b=`ls -1 *" "* | sed -e s/\ /_/g`
done
mv "$i" $b
Please advise what is wrong with my script that isnt
working. The script works if I only have one filename
with a blank space. But if I have several filenames
with blank spaces in the name then it doesnt work.

Control space after the Drop Cap

ID3, XP
We character style drop caps. When the DC is a single character, we use the tracking in the character style to add space to the right of the dropped character. However, this method cannot be used when it is a two character drop, in this case, chapter numbers are dropped 2 lines. We want to adjust the space between the dropped number and the start of text, and keep that space equal on both lines.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

The first issue is still that humbled wasn't able to add space after the drop caps and maintain alignment of the text. Bottom line is that his method of using character spacing was a bad hack. I'm pointing out that the alternative solutions he tried (ex. post #4) didn't work because he wasn't using the correct value for the number of drop characters. And per his post #21, he is still assuming that 2 is the correct value to define a double digit drop cap. If he gets past that, solutions to other complications may come easier. In fact, unless he needs some specific sized space HIS WHOLE PROBLEM FROM START TO FINISH could be solved simply by selecting 3 as the number of characters for his drop caps rather than sticking with 2. That would have the effect of including the space after the chapter numbers as part of the drop cap making it larger and adding considerably more space. If he does need more space, then he is going to have to add another character. But that character still has to be included in the DC character count: 12<space>Text (3 drop caps) 12<hardspace>Text (3 drop caps) 12<space><hardspace>Text (4 drop caps) He can even use a tab character for a specific indent if he wants. Just switch a tab for the hardspace above. P.S. The same logic holds true for in single drop caps. If you want extra space after, increase the drop cap count to 2 to include the space after.

Anyone else having trouble with FCPX crashing after the OSX update?

Anyone else having trouble with FCPX crashing after the OSX update? It NEVER crashed until the update. The night before last it crashed 20 times in 45 minutes. I can't finish my project because of it.

I don't understand the question. I am simply editing.
There are some patterns of crashes that suggest possible causes and fixes; some users report crashes when FCPX is in the process of loading; others while importing/exporting, etc. Asking to narrow the list of possibilities.
Suggest starting with three things:
1) Update the software from the APp Store if need be.
2) Trash preferences.
3) Repair permissions.

Office 2013 - Word cannot establish a connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode

Hiya!
This issue has been answered numerous times for Office 2010 and Office 2007, but I have yet to any solutions or Hotfixes that work for Office 2013 (x64) on Win7.
How to replicate the issue:
Open a file from a network share.
Edit file.
Leave computer on with file open. Computer goes to sleep or into stand-by mode.
Wait a bit
Wake up computer
CPU opens file in Read-Only mode and gives you the following error "Word cannot establish a network connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode. Save the document into a different file to keep any changes."
What I've tried:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2434898 - Office 2007 registry fixes. Does not apply.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2413659 - Office 2010 problem. This exact issue. Says 'No microsoft products that match this hotfix are installed'
Work Around:
I can saving new versions of these files overrides this issue, but this is sometimes not possible for end-users who only have specific access to ONE SPECIFIC FILE in a particular network share.
Please let me know how I can alleviate this issue!
Thanks
-Chris

Hi,
Are those problematic documents created via previous versions of Office?
Please also try to run a repair of your Office 2013 installtion and check if it helps. See:

Problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file.

*Subject: problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file, i can't see my blog, nor my photos, but before that all was working fine.*
After the publication in the local file, I see all my pages, but there is a mistake on the page "Blog" where I just can see the top of my page, it's cut and I can't see it entirely, so I can't see the inputs while I should see 3 news or 3 inputs. And it's the same for the "Photos" page where the page is cut, I can't see the photos, and it's just written : "Put the slide show and subscribe".To finish, when I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
Please help me.

I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
The comments feature is only available when you publish to the MobileMe server, so I don't think you can use it when you publish to a local file.

How to stop iphone 4s from putting a space after the second digit, when entering a text number from the keypad

How do I stop the iphone 4s from putting a space after the second digit, when entering a text number from the keypad. Entering a text number on the key pad like 61998 comes out on the screen as 61 998 and the sms fails to go.

The space (or lack thereof) should have no effect on whether or not the SMS goes through. The spacing is intended to make it easier for the human eye to comprehend the number. I'd start by resetting the network settings in General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.

Why does fix capitalization work when there is only one space after the period in pages 09?

why does fix capitalization work when there is only one space after the period in pages 09? For example: "Turn on 3rd St. After the traffic light." There is only one space after the period in "St." shouldn't it only auto correct after TWO spaces..?? the word After, should be after..

You may also use a noBreak space after the period at the end of the abbreviation.
If I remember well, in such case the capitalization will not apply.

I have highlighted words in an .iba file. Now I need to increase the space before (and/or after) the paragraph it's contained in. If I increase the space after, the height of the highlighting increases also. Is there any way around this?
