HT204365 Is it possible to monitor a folder for new .pdf files?

I mostly use my iPad for a few apps and reading my textbooks. I'd like to be able to put new .pdf files in a particular folder and have iTunes automatically notice so I don't have to drag them over every time. Is this possible?

If you install beehive extensions for explorer, you can drag and drop files and folders.

Is it possible to monitor State change of a .CSV file using powershell scripting ?

Hi All,
I just would like to know Is it possible to monitor State change of a .CSV file using powershell scripting ? We have SCOM tool which has that capability but there are some drawbacks in that for which we are not able to utilise that. So i would like
to know is this possible using powershell.
So if there is any number above 303 in the .CSV file then i need a email alert / notification for the same.

Hi Jrv,
Thank you very much. I modified the above and it worked.
Import-Csv C:\SCOM_Tasks\GCC2010Capacitymanagement\CapacityMgntData.csv | ?{$_.Mailboxes -gt 303} | Export-csv -path C:\SCOM_Tasks\Mbx_Above303.csv;
Send-MailMessage -Attachments "C:\SCOM_Tasks\Mbx_Above303.csv" -To “[email protected]" -From “abc@xyz" -SMTPServer [email protected] -Subject “Mailboxex are above 303 in Exchange databases” -Body “Mailboxex are above 303 in Exchange databases"
Mailboxex - is the line which i want to monitor if the values there are above 303. And it will extract the lines with all above 303 to another CSV file and 2nd is a mail script to email me the same with the attachment of the 2nd extract.

Is it possible to hear a soundtrack in a pdf file with an iPad ?

Is it possible to hear a soundtrack in a pdf file with an iPad ?

Sorry, but Reader for iPad or iPhone does not yet support sound or video.
You should get PDF Expert from Readdle. It costs US$9.99 but it's a much better reader, and, among other great features, supports multimedia.

Is it still possible to attach sticky notes to a pdf file? Which Adobe product will enable this?

Is it still possible to attach sticky notes to a pdf file? Which Adobe product do I need to do this?

Both Acrobat and Reader 10/11 can, and previous versions of Reader can if the document is enabled to allow it. Mobile versions of Reader can too.

Is it possible to extract the contents of any PDF file using Adobe PDF SDK?

Is it possible to extract the contents of any PDF file using Adobe PDF SDK?
For Example: There is one pdf file. Let us say xxx.pdf with 32 pages. I am interested in only in a topic present at 10th page. Can I extract this information and save it into another pdf file (means new pdf file)?

Thanks Irosenth,
I am actually interested in extract the page and create a new PDF with that page. But still there is a catch that on which basis the page needs to extract either on PAGE number OR on Bookmark basis.
But here in this scenario assume I am looking for the PDF file, now I want to save only page 5. How can I extract page 5 automatically/programmatuically? Or in simple word how can I get the reference link of page 5?
Here I am not getting clear picture that Do I need both SDK Adobe & Acrobat to achieve this requirement. And more over you have mentioned that SDK itself is free. But on Adobe side it is mentioned that it is available by license only with this I have another doubt: To work my desktop/system application with Adobe PDF library, this library needs to distribute with the application. So in this case will it be chargeable for each and every deployment.
Could you please provide me the link from where I can download the SDK? So that I can do some excerise with SDK to figure out the exact flow of functionality to work with my application.

Booklet converted to .pdf is fine for printing/folding, but for putting pdf file online website - pages in wrong order. How to fix?

I created a booklet in Publisher and then saved as .pdf file to post on a website. When printed, pages are ok for folding and printing in the right order, but the .pdf file to look at shows pages out of order. is there a way to fix this?

Not with Reader.
You would probably need to rebuild the original document and recreate the pdf.

Acrobat 4.0 possible patch to handle newer .pdf files?

I am currently at a small printing company that uses a Heidelberg Prosetter and interconnected software programs for platemaking in our pre-press department. We currently have an outdated Heidelberg meta dimension system that I was told will only handle Acrobat version 4.0 files. I get errors when a newer .pdf version is sent to me from my customers. So far I have found work arounds such as saving the .pdf file down to a compatible file, but am running out of options, and the newest version 9.0 files are really giving me a headache. Saving the file down doesn't seem to help. Is there a possible patch I can find to allow version 4.0 to handle the newest files? Heidelberg has told me that if we were to upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat we would need to upgrade the rest of our software (PitStop Server, Meta Dimension, SignaStation) since they all work together to burn plates and that would cost us upwards of $25,000. Being a small company we can not afford this and the owners have basically told me to work with what I have. Can anyone help me?

I still keep having some issues with transparent objects and drop shadows with a spot colors. I just spoke to our Heidelberg rep and he mentioned that they even had to update their software to handle the 9.0, and are now recommending that customers upgrade to the newest version of Meta Dimension (which is very costly I might Ad!). I think I am just stuck between a rock and a hard place, and will be there as long as I work here! Not only do I have issues with the transparent objects, I am sometimes getting a flat out will not open error message in EnFocus PittStop which is our pre-flight software. I am going to have to post this on the EnFocus forums and hope that someone might be able to solve that for me. Thanks for the input. I kind of thought that a patch like that was out of the question! There is just no help for poor people like me!

"A new folder for every project file"

Aha!! Right, from now on ... (thanks Steve)
From the Muvipix.com Guide to Adobe PE11 by Steve Grisetti
(p 36) [on starting and saving a new project]
2     Click the Browse button to choose a location to save your new
project file.
We at Muvipix recommend always selecting the Browse option and,
wherever you choose to save your file, creating a new folder for every
new project file.
This little bit of housekeeping keeps all of your new project's files in
one neat, little folder. And, when your project is done and you want to
clear it from your computer, you can then remove not only the project
file but all of the temp, render and scratch disk files Premiere Elements
has created for that project simply by deleting that single folder!
This makes post-project clean-up a much easier and neater process.
OK, hope I've got it this time (at last)
cheers
Brian

Oh no! I thought I’ll re-work that Canal video again, but this time saved the project from the very start in a new folder on an ext HD (500 GB) connected USB3.0. Tried all sorts of things on it, saved each time in the same folder.   Cleared all 14 clips from Project Assets (which of course emptied the timeline).   Shut down PE11.   Checked via Windows Explorer that the project files were all on the ext HD – and by the way, there are no other files on it, just the PE files. My understanding is that Advanced System Care Pro (Iobit) regularly defrags all my drives if necessary (tho’ I haven’t done this manually for months with this drive).
OK, opened PE, went to Open Recent Projects, it shows the above .prel file and the entire path, I click on it and –
Weird, just weird
Nil desperandum
Brian
Edited --- and another weird thing, my email isn't sending the complete message I type to this forum.   I sent a whole message once and it never appeared, but this time it's cut off half a sentence above (it did this before, earlier today).
That sentence should read,
OK, opened PE, went to Open Recent Projects, it shows the above .prel file and the entire path, I click on it and – nothing happened!   (You'll have gathered that's what happened, but I wrote it in my Windows Live Mail, sent via BT-Yahoo ISP ......... ) Hey wait, there was a whole lot more.
Here's a copy / paste from Windows Live Mail outbox
It’s so odd, because as I said previously, most of the time it works so well, does all the things it’s supposed to do.   I followed Steve’s instructions here to the letter.   By the way, as you know, it’s not just the ext HD, this has been happening all along with allowing PE to save everything in its default Folder 11.
I would be – now – very sorry indeed to have to abandon PE11 simply on this account, but it’s causing me to waste such a lot of time.   (Let alone the expense of buying it, plust one Lynda.com course, plus 2 books – not forgetting that I’d previously tried the Corel software and bought a book and DVD for that too!!)
Might just use – what’s that simplicity-itself thingy everyone uses who just want to get any old kind of thing up on You Tube ..........   Oi vey!! <<more weary sigh>>
Weird, just weird

Optimize scanned PDF for ONLY PDF FILES in a folder?

Using the Action Wizard to batch optimize scanned documents. When selecting a folder, how can we only optimize the PDF files and skip over conversion of all other file types (JPG, TIF, DOC)? Currently it is converting all files in the folder to PDF, but we only want to optimize the ones which are already PDF.
Thanks!
ATC

Figured that would be the only choice... I will use Robocopy to copy the entire folder structure and only *.pdf files, then optimize, then copy back and overwrite existing files. Hopefully Adobe will have a way to filter filetypes in their next release.

New "Purchased on..." folder for new ipad

Is there any way to consolidate the purchase folders?
I have 2 now for ipad purchases... if I add a folder for each new apple product, I will soon be filling the whole column, won't I? I tried dragging the purchased item from the old ipad folder to the new, but that would not work.
any ideas?
thanks
tom

The purchased on... playlists are just smart playlists of items you import from your devices. The items are also included in your music or video libraries. I normally delete the purchased on... playlists since they serve no useful purpose for me. Deleting the playlist does not delete the purchases from your library.

Cannot select proper root folder for new DW site in DW CS6

Hi,
I'm new to Dreamweaver and am trying to set up a new DW site to do a tutorial.   I am trying to create a new DW site named "Check CS6 Tutorial". The Local site folder defaults to: C:\Users\Pam\Desktop\Unnamed Site 2\ but I don't want that. I browse folders to choose 'c:\dreamweaver' and get the error message:
The root folder you have chosen is the same as the folder for site 'Pam-Test'. This may cause some operations, such as synchronization, to work incorrectly. Proceed anyway?
I keep trying to select the c:\dreamweaver location for my files but keep getting the error message above.

You need to organize your sites in individual folders for DW to function correctly.
Personally, I would create a folder on your desktop called "Websites". Then inside that folder, create another folder called "tutorial site". Set "tutorial site" as your new tutorial site's root folder and put all of the tutorial site's files and folders into it. All of a site's resources need to stay inside that site's root, so all .html, .jpg, .gif, .js, .css, etc.
Any additional sites would then have their own folder created inside the "Websites" folder and that folder would be their site root. All of the files for each individual site needs to stay inside that sites individual root folder. The structure would look like...
Websites
     tutorial site
          all of tutorial site's files
     pam-test
          all pam-test site files
     website 3
          all of website 3's files
     etc...

Rescan Project Folder for New images

I've got an existing folder structure on my hard drive that I wanted to maintain but try importing into aperture. I imported each folder into aperture as a project. I imported, but left the files in their existing location. Since then i've added addtional files to various folders in Finder. This is where my question comes. Is it possible to have Aperture rescan the folder associated to a project and have it import new files into aperture?

See my Aperture AppleScripts page at <http://homepage.mac.com/brettgross/Aperture/ApertureAppleScripts/index.html> for the Sync Folder into Project script. I think it will do what you want.
That is what I use it for, at least...

Is there any way to change the default folder for new finder windows...

...Or even set a different folder as the "home folder"?
I am recovering from an incredibly messy archive and install which refused to allow me to save my old user accounts, instead moving them all into "Previous Systems". In my haste to get the machine working again I just dragged and dropped my old home folder into the /users/ directory and changed the "short name" of the new account to match it. IT worked, but now I have an incredibly irritating problem. That is now indeed my home folder, as appears in the sidebar of all finder windows, albeit under my new short name instead of my old one. All my documents in iWeb, Garageband, etc are working now and default to the new folder.
However, Finder has not recognized this, and every time I open a new Finder window or anything like that it defaults to the home folder created by the reinstall, which is now locked to this account (so all the folders have a red no entry sign on them). I would very much like to tell Finder to ignore this now defunct folder and default to my actual home folder instead - is there a way to do this without actually moving or changing any folders? Like a preference setting somewhere? I know there's the "Advanced Options" pane in Leopard but I've been completely unable to find anything like it in Tiger

Finder > Preferences > new Finder Window opens

Is it possible to export/save Muse pages as PDF files?

As a Web Design / New Media student, the curriculum at my school teaches a combination of Illustrator, Fireworks, and Acrobat Pro for design, wireframing, and prototyping new websites. Muse seems capable of streamlining the process, but is it possible to export the file in PDF format for sharing (assignment submission; offline viewing)? Maybe after publishing, one can convert the wepage to a PDF?
Any suggestions are appreciated!

Not natively, but you can always screenshot your Design or Layout page and convert that JPG or TIFF to PDF, but Muse does not export pages in that way.

Help Firefox will not "open containing folder" for downloaded .rar files

I have to open a file that is in my FF downloads but none of the .RAR files will open the containing folder. I have quite a few .rar files none of them will open. Windows 7 PC

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
