Importation as referenced in Folder with name of the project impossible?

Hello,
I am currently importing my photos as referenced in Aperture and want to automatically create the folder with the same name as my project, but it always create a folder named "test". I can't find where is my mistake? I think I already have already succeeded in doing that in the past.
2 screen copies (unfortunately in French) to help you understand better:
During importation I also do a copy (Save) and it also create the same "test" folder.
Thanks in advance for your help

It is finally working after doind the following "Move the user created presets, keyword lists, and so on..." from Trouble shouting mentionned by Leonie.
I previously did the first 2 steps of repair as below:
and also "Delete the user preferences" from Trouble shouting but without success..
As answer to Frank: I imported from a SD card in a card reader and from the HDD
To: HDD or a NAS.
but all possibilities had same result.
My import configuration was as below (similar to Leonie's screenshot):
Thank you to both of you.

RQ: Receive files in folder with name of the sende...

Hello,
I don't know is I'm on the right place and I don't know is there same request, so I apologize if it exist...
Please, make option the received files to be saved in folder with the name of the sender. For example: my friend with skype name XYZ send me a file 'foo.bar' that will be saved in \My Documents\Skype_save (I changed the default dir); another friend with name XXY send me file 'foo1.bar' and again it will be in \My Documents\Skype_save, but when there are many files it is difficult to sort them and know whose files sended by who... So the good choise is if the files are saved in folder with name XYZ, XXY etc... Example:
\Skype_save\XYZ\foo.bar
\Skype_save\XXY\foo1.bar
I'm sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language. I hope you can understand what I mean with this folders

There is no automatic option in Skype that can do what you are trying to accomplish. However, you can in advance create save folders named as your contacts and and each time you receive a file, to save the file in the appropriate folder.
For this to function, you have to set the option in Tools -> Options -> IM settings -> Show advanced options to “Choose a folder where to save the file every time”.

Never mind, I already found the solution myself.
What I did wrong was:
- not copying the master image to the nbi folder
- selecting the netinstall-restore.dmg image as source to copy to my HD.
The thing is, when you create a netinstall image for 10.5, the image itself is already included in the netinstall image so you don't have to do anything else.
With the 10.4 image however, you also have to copy the master image to the NetBootSP0 directory.
In the *.nbi folder contains an netinstall-restore.dmg file. But that is only to boot you to netrestore, it's not the image itself.
Other alternative is to copy the images to another folder that you share with AFP and adjust the configuration of netrestore like described in this manual:
http://www.shellharbourd.det.nsw.edu.au/pdf/misc/osxrestoringnet.pdf
This manual was also how I figured out that I forgot to copy the image to the NetBootSP0 folder.

How to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

how to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

Within Aperture you have Images, which are constructed on-the-fly from two files (the Master and the Version). You get an image-format file _only_ when you export an Image. You select the file name (usually a scheme) when you create an image-format file (that is, when you export). Look under "Aperture→Presets→File Naming" for built-in Presets. You can, of course, create your own or customize any provided.
The Preset is applied to only the file newly created by your "export" command. It is not applied to the Image in Aperture (unless you rename your Versions or your Masters).

RH9-change the name of the project after it's been generated & released as help site.

I'm a novice non-programmer working in RH9 - client wants to change the name of the project that appears at the top of Internet Explorer. The project has been generated & released to their internal website. I've changes every file name I could find as well as the name in the title bar when you first generate it within RH. Any words of wisdom &/or advice are welcome.

It's not clear whether you are trying to do this the correct way which will require generating the help again or whether you are trying to change it just in the output on the server.
The latter is not good practice as it will get forgotten next time you generate and you will be back to square one. If you must do that, then it should be as simple as changing the start page title. You will need a copy of the file from the server. Open it locally and change the <title>, then upload it again.
The correct way is to go to Project Settings and change the name there, then regenerate.

When I import audio and move it into my timeline the project will no longer play?

When I import audio and move it into my timeline the project will no longer play?

The audio is a .wav file created in Audacity.
The OS is Windows XP
The verison is CS4
I have included images of the Sequence settings and the playback settings because I was not sure what information you would need.
I am not sure what you mean by waiting for the Audio to conform but I know I have imported the audio and gone back the next day and tried to place it in the timeline and it still did not work.

I have burned to my external blu ray burner 3 times, but twice ended up with glitches in the project. now it stops at 59% and won't finish sharing. How do I get it to finish sharing?

I have burned to my external blu ray burner 3 times, but twice ended up with glitches in the project. now it stops at 59% and won't finish sharing. How do I get it to finish sharing?

It's a complex project and there are a lot of possibilities. Among them is the length; there are a number of reports of projects that are approaching 2 hours failing to burn.
If it's a question of jarring Create Disk into action, one thing that has worked for some users is simply to click on and the Apply button (s) in the Settings pane of the Blu Ray Share window and then hitting Cancel. This can be tested by duplicating your project and selecting a tiny section of your sequence and exporting. Change the Output Device to Hard Drive and see whether Create Disk successfully writes a disk image.
You can also check that a specific clip isn't rendering properly. Since the process got to 59%, it may just mean that the burn couldn't be initiated by Create Disk – or it may indicate a problem with a clip toward end of your sequence. (If you can check the log, there may be something useful in there.)
Use the duplicated project and this time set a range for the last 30 minutes or so of the project and export it, using the Blu Ray destination. Again, set Output Device to HD and see whether it will complete.
Good luck.

LR3 bug: Files from a folder with name ending with "." (dot) cannot be imported

This is a weird one Surprisingly, directories with names ending with a dot, don't show in the Import dialog and also cannot imported by using synchronization. So, if you have any folder named "Flowers, trees etc." ... you cannot import it.

And what happens if you delete the dot at the end of the folder name?

Create folder with name Client150412n

Hi,
I'm new to ApplesScripting. I've found this script that I'd like to change:
--This script will make a new folder on the desktop with current date and dialog box
--format the date to 2010-11-19
tell (current date) to get day & (it's month as integer) & (it's year as integer)
set TheDateFormat to the result as text
-- asks for folder name with date as default answer
set TheFolderName to text returned of (display dialog "Name the folder" default answer TheDateFormat)
--make folder with date & user entered text
tell application "Finder"
make new folder with properties {name:TheFolderName}
end tell
The desired changes:
- Date format should be: 150412 + a letter (a, b, c) if the folder to be created already exists.
- Place the cursor at the start of name dialog, no selection active.
- The new folders should be created in /Users/Hans/Dropbox/Jobs/
Thanks,
Hans
Another question is related to execution of the script:
- How can I start the script easily with a shortcut key or a Dock icon?
- Is it possible to select client name from a plain text file containing client names in separate lines?
- Is it possible to have zip files automatically unzipped to subfolder names with the zip package name?
- Regarding the Dock icon I could even imagine that I drag a zip or other file from an email or the Desktop to the icon and that I only have to type the clients name to have the file moved to a new folder.

save script as an application bundle. Drag app to dock.
Set short-cut key to app.

Image copy to folder with name based on image creation date

Hi all,
I am new to Mac OS X and automator so I would like to know the following,
Is it possible to have an automated action that triggers when I attach my camera to USB, and who copies all images to a folder which is named according to the date when the image was created?
Example:
I attach my camera and it shows up as disk image named "NIKON D70" and the images are contained in subfolders "DCIM/100NCD70" (or actually in DCIM/*). I then want all images in these folders copied to my home directory in a subdirectory called something like "Pictures/D70/2007/20070605" where the year folder name and the date folder name should be according to current image creation date (which of course can be different for each image).
I have created a simple automation script that copies images from my camera to a folder named according to current date, but that's not good enough.
Anybody having any hints or ideas of how I can accomplish this?
Regards

Create new folder with name of file?

I am generating about 20 files from a 3d model. I open the model let's say the name is "delorean" then I want to create a new folder with all the generated files. I'm using a watch me Do to generate the files. The watch me do will save them in whatever folder I specify ahead of time. Should I just specify new folder each time, then rename it with the file name afterwards? If so how do I get the original file name so that I can use it to rename the file. Is there an example of doing something like this somewhere?
Thanks.
This forum is great.
Dan

I am going to guess that you start off with a single file - what are you doing to generate these files? My *Get Names of Finder Items* action can get a name to use in the *New Folder* action - items passed to the New Folder action will get copied to it, so a little more detail may help in creating the workflow.
The *Dispense Items Incrementally* action can also be used to dole out the items one at a time - knowing what the workflow is doing would help with the use of this action as well.

Automator: Create folder with name and subfolders in it.

Hello everyone, my question is related to Automator. I work in a company where we have a huge server. Every time a new job comes in it gets a six digits number and a folder with 5/6 subfolder needs to be created. The main folder will be xxxxxx_nameofbrand and will contain 5 subfolder each one of them starting with the six digit number assigned initially followed by 5 tags (always the same ones).
Everytime it's a long thing to create it manually and copy and paste every number and name, so I thought I could use automator to do it easilly but I always get stucked at the part where I want the 5 subfolder to go in the main one. This is what I had done, but I'm pretty sure there is a faster/easier way to do it.. I'm really new to automator, I know it's potential but don't know how to use it very well..
I thank you all for the help.

For this kind of exception, you can just add a Run AppleScript action at the end of the workflow - for example, the following will rename all folders ending with the specified name that are at the specified depth in the structure:
on run {input, parameters} # remove prefix from folder name
set sourceFolder to quoted form of POSIX path of (input as text)
set exceptionName to "Links" # will find a name ending with this (case sensitive match)
set exceptionDepth to 2 # at a folder depth of this
set theFolders to (do shell script "find " & sourceFolder & " -name " & quoted form of ("*" & exceptionName) & " -depth " & exceptionDepth)
repeat with anItem in paragraphs of theFolders # rename without prefix
tell application "System Events" to set name of folder anItem to exceptionName
end repeat
return input
end run

Selection of Folder/File name using the same Fun.Module

Please let me know if there is a function module which can fetch folder name/File name from the directory path when f4 option of selection screen field is selected. Currently I am able to get the file name using FM F4_DXFILENAME_4_DYNP but the requirment is like I have to select either folder name or the file name depending on user selection.
Note: Please let me know if there is a single Function module which can get folder name or the file name based on the user selection.i.e, if the user want to select a folder he can select or he can select files in the folder for processing

Removing Folder/Application name under the icon on desktop

I've run into a bit of an issue while customizing my Macbook's desktop. I've found a beautiful icon set (Kobhens Icon Set) which has the name of the application/"Macintosh HD" on the icon. The issue is that I cannot figure out how to remove the name label below the application/folder icon on the desktop. I'm being pedantic, but I'd love to kill off the label for "Macintosh HD" on the desktop and for a few other applications like Firefox and Itunes without replacing the name with spaces.
I was wondering if this is possible through any settings menu or maybe through Terminal???
Any help would be greatly appreciated, so please let me know if I need to clarify anything.

Thanks for the response.
So there's no way to remove the icon labels (even with a third party application)? That's a bummer. Well, maybe there's a way to work around it... The desktop background I'm using is black/white. Is there any way to change the label's text color to match the background (i.e. make the text black on the black background or make the text white on the white background)?
I find it odd that such a simple (albeit useless) task would be impossible.
As always, any help would be greatly appreciated.
