I Need Help : File Managment with ITunes

I have a library of music on an external drive. I ripped my CD's with Winamp in .wav format. I bought an IPod, and ultimately would like to convert my .wav files on my external drive into .aac, then upload to my ipod. I imported the file into my music library (iTunes reorginized all of my files, which was a problem) but they remain in .wav format. When I highlight the file and run "convert to .acc" from the "Advanced"drop down menu. This converts the file, buy duplicates an instance of the song, and it is very difficult to manage the files (determining which have been coverted ect)
Any suggestions?

Right click on any column title of the Library view and check "Kind" so you will see amoung other information the file kind (AAC, MP3, etc.).
Then, left click on the column title "Kind" so your song will be ordered by kind. Now you have all you WAV and AAC songs separated. You can now delete the ones you want and remove the "Kind" column when no longer needed.

Need help file sharing with a powermac G4 and ibook

I need to transfer files from my G4 to an ibook. I am using ethernet slot B on the G4 and the ibook has an airport card. I also have a router. Does anyone have an easy way to do this? I want to set up a connection between these two computers without using the internet. Appletalk is active on the g4, and file sharing is on yet the activity monitor does not show the ibook as a connected user. I tried to find the G4 on the ibook by connecting to server but it does not recognize the g4 when I either type the name of the computer or browse the network. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Would a CD writer for the G4 be a better option?
Thank you.

I tried to find the G4 on the ibook by connecting to server but it does not recognize the g4 when I either type the name of the computer or browse the network.
If you are running Mac OS before 9 and trying to connect to Mac OS after 10.3, you will not be able to do it without additional software.
If you connect the iBook to the router with an Ethernet cable, you may be more successful, as some routers do not pass AppleTalk packets from wireless to wired.
The FireWire approach will also work, and yes, it mounts the other computer's drives on your desktop.

TS1389 I need help removing UAC from itunes..

I need help removing UAC from itunes so it will not allow me to open itunes. Everything I have read from other comments that you shouldn't turn off your user account control. I just to be able to open itunes. Can anyone help me with this problem?? Greg, ogrady612@yahoo,com

I had this problem too but you do not need UAC to be turned on.
Click on start and search for 'uac' in the search box at the bottom and click on 'Change User Account Control Settings' when it comes up. Move the slider to the bottom when the window appears and save the changes and your done!
It's worked for me and my uac has been off for months without causing me any problems!
Hope this helped

File Manager with tree view

I've been using Cinnamon with the Nemo file manager for a while now but I'm wanting to remove Cinnamon and have only Openbox and Awesome installed. The only thing that's stopping me now is I'm unsure of what to use for a file manager. The feature of Nemo that I really like is the ability to show folders in tree view in the main pane when in detailed list view. I know that most of them probably have the tree feature in a side pane but I want it in the main pane.
I'd like something with as few dependencies as possible since I'm wanting a more minimal approach to my system. Nemo requires Cinnamon, I'm guessing that Nautilus has the feature that I'm looking for as well but that requires Gnome.
Can anyone recommend another file manager with this feature? Or is there any way to install Nemo/Nautilus without their desktop dependencies?

drcouzelis wrote:It doesn't look like Nemo requires Cinnamon. What do you mean?
claire ~ % pacman -Qi nemo
Name : nemo
[snip]
Depends On : libexif gvfs dconf desktop-file-utils exempi python2
cinnamon-desktop gnome-icon-theme libnotify libxml2
cinnamon-translations
I think this is what is meant.

Not really, since those libraries are required to run the respective file manager.

Looking for a file manager with copy queue

Hey,
I'm looking for a file manager with a file-copy-queue feature.
It is useful when browsing mounted samba shares, and you find something you want to copy.
You'll then start copying the files, and then spot another useful folder. You start copying that as well
and suddenly you got 5 different file copies processing at the same time, which decreases the copy speed.
I also miss the feature when transfering files from my external harddrives.
If there is a lot of FM's with this feature, I prefer one without kde-dependencies, as I am using xfce.

Ranguvar wrote:If MC really does have that as a feature, it's once again proved itself _the_ graphical (sorta) file manager.
sorry for misinformed.
mc has a background job option while copying, it is not exactly a queue like functionality, but simulating to be a queue, and you can stop/resume a background job.

File manager with tree view in main pane?

I'm looking for a file manager with something similar to Nautilus' list view, with a list and tree structure as a main view.
The nautilus one is awesome, but nautilus has qwerks if you don't use gnome (wants to control desktop, panels are very restricted, etc.)
Does anyone know of a file manager with a view similar to this that I can try out?

I've seen a few things on spacefm, and played with it a bit. Took me 3 minutes and 2 segmentation faults to find the setting to change views, and it still doesn't have the ability I want, so still a bit too buggy for me.
Pcmanfm is a good all around filemanager, but doesn't have that feature either.
I played with a slew of file managers one day looking for similar things, maybe I should try that again and branch out further than what's in the repos.
More suggestions?

Need help to start with some file and text manipulation

Hello script mavens,
I need help with starting a script that does the following:
-within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
-moves all the files into the images folder
-within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
-writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
-then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder and renames in indexX.html
-in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
The task is more complex but this would help me tremendously do the rest.
If I am asking for too much on this forum please let me know

This should get you started.
The description of how you want to write the data isn't clear, but the rest should work (untested):
property imageNum : 0 -- last used ImageNumber
-- within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-- get the folder:
set baseFolder to (choose folder)
-- now get the files within it:
tell application "Finder"
set fileList to every file of folder baseFolder as alias list
end tell
--creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
tell application "Finder"
set imageNum to imageNum + 1
set newImageFolder to make new folder at baseFolder with properties {name:"images" & imageNum}
-- moves all the files into the images folder
move every file of folder baseFolder to newImageFolder
--within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
set textFile to (open for access file (baseFolder as text) & "images" & imageNum & ".js" with write permission)
--writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
write "//-" to textFile
-- then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-- need more info here
-- a blank line between each instance of the file name? or all file names, blank line, all file names again?
-- an example, please
close access textFile
--from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder
--and renames in indexX.html
--in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
-- the easiest way of doing this is to read the file and write a new copy with the changes - that's easier than changing it in situ:
set indexHTML to (read file "index.html" of folder (container of baseFolder))
set {oldTIDs, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "replaceThis"}
set indexHTML to text items of indexHTML
set my text item delimiters to "imagesX.js"
set indexHTML to indexHTML as text
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs
set indexFile to (open for access file ("index" & imageNum & ".html") with write permission)
write indexHTML to indexFile
close access indexFile
end tell

Voice Memos File management with wireless remote hard drive

Dragging unwanted voice memos from within iTunes application to trash, then emptying trash, won't delete voice memos in the "voice memos" folder in iTunes Media on my external remote hard drive. Why not?
I manage my iTunes music from my laptop, storing the actual files in an iTunes Media folder on a hard drive connected to an Airport Extreme. The hard drive was close to full and I decided the culprit was giant voice memo files. I didn't need most of them so I dragged them to the trash from within the voice memos "playlist" in iTunes. This removed them from the playlist, but even when I emptied the trash via the Finder pull down menu, the files stayed in the actual folder on the hard disk. Disk still full. What gives?

Hi Samboni98, and a warm welcome to the forum!
You could do that, but a far better idea would be to clone the 160 to the 500, then boot from the 500 which besides beimg faster, OSX just loves lots of Free space.

Looking for a file manager with these features:

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a file manager that has the following features (in that order of importance):
- Designed with keyboard users in mind (but full mouse support also)
- Easily configurable
- Supports copying, moving, deleting and the usual operations
- Good search functionnality
- Can see a lot of files at once, does not take up too much room on screen
- Can tie certain file types to applications (ex. open .avi files with video player)
- Nice to look at
- [opt.] Can preview pictures (thumbnails or a preview pane)
Does such a file manager exist? What would you reccomend?
By the way, my current window manager is pekwm.
I am new to linux desktops, so this may change.

Hah, I was going to say exactly that... "keyboard users in mind? my file manager has some awesome hotkeys - like 'l' then 's' to list files, and 'c' then 'p' to copy, 'm' then 'v' to move, it goes on and on, and it has millions of 'plugins'!"
Yeah. I fell in love with linux because of the command line. But it's not always the best tool.
One advantage of graphical file managers is that they offer 'automatic ls': you always see the contents of your directory.
Also, yesterday I needed to move most files in one directory to another. They had varied names. This would have taken a long time with the command-line: I could have named the files one by one, or moved all of them and then name one by one the files that I want moved back. With a graphical file manager, I can select all files and then 'unselect' the ones I don't want to move with just a few clicks. It's faster and simpler. (Or maybe there's some really fancy CLI tool that I don't know about)
When choosing a tool for a job, first I look for the most ethical one, then the most practical one. In most cases I would say I prefer the command line, but sometimes a graphical interface is better. Computers are really good at both, so using both methods is the way I go.
I absolutely love your humour though, slackhack and phrakture. Keep it up!
