Is it possible to archive a whole folder without selecting the individual messages within it?

I have a very large Thunderbird folder, about 15 GB which has become painfully slow to use. I organize my saved messages into folders and sub-folders because I find it easier to find messages that way. Is there a way to archive a whole folder or a group of folders at once while maintaining the "directory" structure I have built. I have tried using archive with the option to keep the existing structure selected rather than archiving by say year. This works nicely but it seem I have to go into every leaf folder, select all the messages in that folder and then hit "archive". I'm wondering if there's a faster way to do it.

Hi,
I cannot find a way to redirect the Deleted Items folder, but I think you may try to use the Retention Policy on the Deleted Items folder. Try to set the retention period to 0, in this way, messages aren’t retained and can’t be recovered. See:

  • How do I collect and organize files into a new folder without breaking the links to my media?

    I'm new to premiere pro, and learned that I probably should have figured out where to organize all of my files from the beginning, but in the post production phase, I have a bunch of audio and image files sitting all over my desktop, and I'm afraid that if I move them, I'll break the links to all of my media. Files I edited in CS6 Photoshop and Audition are of special concern (considering they get automatically routed to my desktop).
    Does anyone know how I can collect all of the files and media that were imported into my project, and and archive them into a folder without breaking the project's links to the original media? Perhaps there's a way to copy all of the files and move them into that folder, so that when I move the originals, I'll still maintain all of the links in the copied version?
    I tried using the project manager tool, but received an "unknown error message" each time I ran it. 
    Any organizational insight would be much appreciated!

  • (LR5) Possible to synchronize a modification-amount, without unifying the settings ?

    (LR5) Possible to synchronize a modification-amount, without unifying the settings ?
    Assume I have ten completely different photos i each optimized individually.
    Thus, sliders (not speaking about curves) of, say, color-tint  or temperature; could/would be each on a different setting.
    Is it possible to intervene on such a slider collectively without changing their individual starting-point?
    "Every selected-photo's  tint-slider  go up by 7 values,  without synchronizing the final setting itself ?
    ( first photo slider position of  -7  becomes 0,   second photo was 2 and becomes 9, etc) ?
    Auto-sync does not do that.
    Sync does not.
    Is there a plug-in for enabling this?
    ignoring the solution ?
    Impossible ?
    Thank You for any reply soon ! :-)

    Yes:
    * Without a plugin: limited adjustments are available via Quick Develop section.
    * With plugin: comprehensive support is available via plugins like Gazoo (free), which I wrote.

  • Can i share existing albums of photos from my photo library with friends straight to icloud rather than having to create a new shared folder and then select the individual photos rather than a whole album??

    Ok to clarify -
    1. i want to go into my photos on my iphone 6.
    2. create a new folder in shared folders.
    3. Add an entire album of photos from my photo library rather than having to select individual photos.
    4. Share with friends.
    Surely the reason i have saved certain photos into albums already from my mac means i like the selection already. So i would like to just share the whole album rather than having to select all the individual photos from the album. Ive tried but maybe im being a doofus and missing something??????
    Any help would be most appreciated.
    thank you in advance
    Kris

    This is normal and is how Apple handles photos.
    There are NOT duplicate photos.
    Just as a song is in your itunes library and you can access that exact same song from a playlist,  all  photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same photos (NOT duplicates) can be accessed from the individual albums.
    It is working exactly as it should.

  • How to open a folder inside a folder, without closing the first?

    I can't find a way to open a sub-folder, inside a mainfolder, without closing the main folder.
    What's even worse, if you hold "option" or "command,"  (old OS9 muscle memory kicking in) it opens the new folder but wipes-out the ability to use the back button!  So then if you needed that main folder open, and it's deep inside some chain, you have to go searching for it again.
    So, is there any fix for this?
    <Edited by Host>

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash, if possible.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

  • How do I move a .fm to another folder without breaking the .book cross-references?

    Simplified situation:
    I currently have mybook.book containing:
       chapter1.fm
       chap2.fm
       appendixA.fm
       apdxB.fm
    I'd like to reorg the files such that mybook.book contains:
       chapters\chapter1.fm
       chapters\chap2.fm
       appendices\appendixA.fm
       appendices\apdxB.fm
    If I move the files into folders with Windows Explorer, it will of course break the cross-references.  I thought I could simply use right-click Rename on the file enteries within the book in FM to move them, but it won't allow the / or | chars.  How can I accomplish this reorg without breaking the cross-references?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    oh well, looks like I'll have to develop a procedure for the staff.  Does anyone have any non-mif suggestions for a smooth procedure?
    Not sure what the problem here is. You need neither a 3rd party plugin nor any MIF editing. Simply do it this way:
    Create the required folders (chapters/appendices) within your current book folder
    Open the book
    Open the chapter files and do a "Save as" into the \chapter subfolder
    Open the appendix files and do a "Save as" into the \appendices subfolder
    Delete the book file entries and re-fill the book with the newly saved files
    Every "Save as..." keeps xrefs intact, including the new path in the document's references. This reqires some steps, yes. But I think it's still better than doing edits to MIF files by someone who is not experienced doing this.
    Edit: Sorry, it's not a easy as I thought. I forgot that this is done in several steps, and previously saved files don't recognize path changes of files saved afterwards. So this is no solution.

  • How do I make a shortcut for a folder without duplicating the contents?

    With Windows, I can right-click and make a shortcut icon for a program or folder, but don't know how to do that with a Macbook. I'd like to create a link in my Public folder for my music.
    Thanks for any help.

    control-click on the Music folder and select "make alias". drag the alias to your Public folder. you can also just commandoptiondrag the music folder to the Public folder and it will create an alias there directly.

  • Is it possible to return a database query without refreshing the page?

    I have a form which has a drop-down select box. What I want to do is send the value from the select list to a CFC which runs some SQL code and returns a recordset. I then want to use this recordset on my original CFM page that has the form on it.
    Is it possible to do this without refreshing the page through some kind of AJAX? Apologies I am a newbie at AJAX but I did manage to write a bit of code that uses <cfdiv> to bind to a URL that does the database work and returns some HTML. But really I just want the database recordset and not sure how to get it?

    You could use AJAX, Flex Remoting or any such remoting technique. That is, if there is a case for it. However, from what you describe in the first paragraph, you don't need to. Just send the form to its own page.
    In the following example, the CFC and CFM page are both in the same directory under the root. I have made use of the cfdocexamples datasource which ships with ColdFusion.
    Employee.cfc
    <cfcomponent>
    <cffunction name="getEmployeeDetails"  output="false" returntype="query">
    <cfargument name="employee_id">
    <cfset var employeeDetails = queryNew("","")>
    <cfset var emp_id = arguments.employee_id>
    <cfif isNumeric(emp_id)>
        <cfquery name = "employeeDetails" dataSource = "cfdocexamples">
            SELECT firstname, email as email_name, department, phone, location
            FROM Employees
            WHERE emp_id = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer" value="#emp_id#">
        </cfquery>
    </cfif>
    <!--- Will activate error-handler in the caller --->
    <cfif NOT isNumeric(emp_id) or employeeDetails.recordcount EQ 0>

        <cfset employeeObj = createobject("component","Employee")>
        <!--- employeeDetails is a query--->
        <cfset employeeDetails = employeeObj.getEmployeeDetails(form.employee_id)>

  • Changing permissions on a top level public folder WITHOUT affecting the folders underneath it in Exchange 2007

    Hello everyone,
    We have a pubilc folder we woudl like to lockdown to just the IT techs, but we want eveything below to function as it normally has been.  We have several folders underneath this folder with various permissions for our end users that we dont want changed. 
    How would you change the permissions on a top level folder without affecting (propagating) the folders underneath it?  Also, If I go into the "Administration" tab of the properties of the top level Public Folder I see an option to
    make this folder available to: "All users with access permission" or "Owners only". Would it be as simple to select "Owners only" here or will that restrict the down level folders as well to just the owners?
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi,
    You use PFDAVAdmin to customize your permission level for mailbox and public folder. This is good tool which helped me a lot in most of the permission issue for PF and Mailbox. Follow the below article for more detail of PFDAVAdmin Tool

  • HT1766 iPhone 4s; Is it possible to sync apps to icloud without using the touchscreen?

    I've been using my iphone 4S with a cracked screen for over three months now (it fell on a tile floor hitting the top front corner first, 5 weeks after I got it) without any issues. Tonight I dropped it from a height of about 8 inches and the part of the face that was cracked made first contact with something that was on a table I was standing at, jamming it further into the phone. When I picked it up I noticed a small piece had also fallen out near an intersection of the cracks. The touchscreen is now completely black.
    My question: Is it possible to sync my apps to the icloud without using the iphone touchscreen? I plan I getting a new phone and had my icloud setup to sync my mail, contacts and calendars. I've been able to download all my pictures and video to my computer.

    Getting/reinstalling the apps isn't a problem. I'm only concerned with the data that is stored within them. For instance I have a mileage tracker I've been using but haven't uploaded the data from the phone to back it up anywhere. I'd like to do that before getting a new phone but I can't see what i'm doing due to the screen not working.
    The phone is actually still working and I've been able to use Siri to make calls and send texts without a working screen. The screen still accepts inputs apparently so if I could return settings to factory settings I could theoretically use another phone side by side to show me exactly where I need to touch and when to back up my applications to iClould.
    Going forward, I actually had ordered another case before my accident as my current case doesn't provide enough protection. It'd be nice if Apple actually made an iphone that didn't need such band-aids for normal usage.

  • Can Inbox and Archive have different actions after selecting the close tab

  • How do i copy a single folder in the bookmarks to another computer. the master backup does not have access to individual folders. in windows you can just copy a specific bookmark folder without overwriting the whole thing

    eg:
    bookmarks
    fav1
    fav2
    fav3
    just want to copy fav2 to another computer

    Unfortunately you can not do that it has been asked like forever and always gets pushed aside. You will have to export your bookmarks and strip out what you do not want being careful to maintain the integrity of the exported bookmarks backup file. Then import the bookmarks. into Firefox. The imported bookmarks will get added to a folder at the end of your "Bookmarks Menu" bookmarks folder. Move them to where you want them and then delete the folder you added to the "Bookmarks Menu". If you automatically sort your bookmarks (automatic sorting is a bad idea), be sure to turn it off beforehand.

  • Is it possible to transfer a whole Spotify playlist to the standard music library?

    I'd like to transfer an extensive music collection, without having to purchase any content, or download it from the Internet - as this will either cost alot or take quite some time. Is there any way I can do this?
    Thanks.

    No, it did not solve the problem, as each laptop, although in the same location, has separate owners, with different Apple ID's. Therefore, I am assuming, for your suggestion to work, each laptop needs to have the same authorisation signatures? Thanks for trying to help. Perhaps you might have another suggestion.

  • Is it possible to import one spark component without importing the entire spark library?

    I want to create an actionscript mobile application project because the total size will be smaller than a flex mobile application - the SDK is smaller because it doesnt contain unnecessary libraries e.g. the spark, mobilecomponents, framework etc. are not included. There are however 1 or 2 spark and mobile comonents that i would like to use and it seems a little silly to import the entire swc libraries for a couple components. So herewith my question... Is it possible to import a spark or mobile component without actually importing the entire swc library?

    Hi Gordon,
    Im using option 2: Merged into code. I have just recreated this on a colleague's laptop as well with the same result.
    Could you perhaps see if you can follow these steps and see what happens on your side.
    Create a new Flex Mobile Project > SDK 4.6.0 > Google Android Platform > Blank Application Template > Finish
    Add <s:TextInput/> under declarations tag
    Export Release Build > Intermediate AIRI package that must be manually signed later > Finish
    Decompile the SWF from the .airi package (I'm using Sothink SWF Decompiler)
    Expand Action > Spark > Components
    My components folder contains many spark components im not interested in packaging - see screenshot attached above for the full list. All we added was a spark textInput and the swf contains Buttons, Scrollbars, TabbedViewNavigator etc. Thus the reason for this post.
