Is it possible to change the file Kind, e.g. mkv to video and not document?
Is it possible to change the file Kind, e.g. mkv to video and not document?
I can't find where I can change this in Finder or OSX. Is this really hardoded in the OS? Get Info gives me no options, but that is where I set the default apps for file kinds (types).
I hope this is possible because I have lot of document kinds and the arrange by kind view in Finder is thus not very useful.
Thanks in advance.
It has to be hard-coded in the application that claims MKV files as a type.

Changing the file kind's description
On my MacBook Pro running Leopard, I have several PHP files whose kind in Finder is displayed as "HTML Document". When I display the "Get Info" pop-up for a PHP file, the Kind field under General is not editable.
I would like to change the file's kind description from "HTML Document" to "PHP Source File". I have done a lot of digging and searching via Google to find a solution to this and I have not found anything that describes how to do this.
Is there a way under OS X to change the file kind description?Hello jk:
I do not use those files, but I suggest you do a Google search on "PHP." There is a lot of information there.

What are the post steps we need to take care from the EBS database and application side after changing the owner in the Unix level.- Stop the application services
- Change the ownership from the OS
- Change the value of "s_dbuser" and "s_dbgroup" context variables in the database context file
- Run AutoConfig on the database tier node
- Change the value of "s_appsuser" and "s_appsgroup" in the application context file
- Run AutoConfig on the application tier node
- Start the application services

Is it possible to change the name of a computer in itunes? And if so, how?
I got a new computer and am giving the old one to my sister... but on our home sharing network it shows as the name I had for it.
So basically if my device (computer) is called pizza... how do I get it named hotdog? I was able to change all other device names like iphone, ipods etc and just want to do the same for the actual computer itself...I don't think you can change the name of your computer but you can change the name of your itunes library.
iTunes Preference, General Overtype the Name in the Library Name Box,
Then your iTunes library will show the new name -

I just want to see if there is any way that I can import the files into iMovie as an alias like Final Cut Pro and Express does. I hate having to copy the file again because it takes up alot of space on my Mac. Thanks.
No, but you can import your Event to an external drive from the import screen.
It is also possible to create a symbolic link to another location. The link stays in your iMovie Events or iMovie Project folder, but the actual file resides somewhere else. I don't do it this way, so I can't share any details. -

Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking?
Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking and going through the import options?
I'm trying to import seveeral pages of the same PDF. The process would be quickest if I could import it once, then duplicate the image box a number of times, then just change the page number each image box is linking to.
At the moment I'm having to relink (or place), then go through Import Options, then choose the page - it's a long process that feels like it should be quicker.
Any ideas?
ThanksThe short answer is no, that's not possible, but it IS possible to import multiple pages at one time.
My favorite script for this is from Scott Zanelli: InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files, but there's also a sample script included with ID. -

Changing the size of fonts in InDesign's menus and toolbars?
Is it possible to change the size of fonts in InDesign's menus and toolbars? I'd love for the Control Panel at the top to be a bit easier to read.
Thanks Bob, didn't see it anywhere but figured it was worth asking. I think the size is a little biased toward people with better vision than me but I guess I'll have to live with that.

In my current Help project, I have one set of topics that are specific to use of our product in one country. I would like to change the TOC icon for the specific book without changing all of the "purple book" icons.
Thanks.Whether you can do this depends on how much time you are willing to invest. The easy answer is 'no'.
Having said that, it is possible to change the script to change the icon for a specific page. For this, you need to change the output files and you must create an exception to the regular mechanism. Best of all, you need to hard code the topic title/url to do this. This is a typical case of 'I offer consultancy for these kinds of things'. PM me if you want to know more.
Kind regards,

I recently had some 8mm film transferred to DVD. I am trying to edit the film clips using Premier Elements 4.0. so I can reburn the films on a single BluRay disc. Some of the film clips copy into the project but others don't. I tried copying the VOB filed onto my hard drive and then changing the file extensions on the VOB files to MPEG but this was no help. Some of the VOB files contain numerous film clips but my software does not appear to be able to recognize them as such. I need to know if replacing my old Premier Elements with the new Version 13 would solve this problem or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What do you have now.....
What computer operating system do you have?
We can go into the finer points of source and your intentions, but for now it would appear that you are using SD 4:3 source media to get to a HD 16:9 result. Lots to discuss in this regard.
What was given to you on the DVD disc? DVD-VIDEO 4:3 or something else?
If DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, you should expect to find on the disc a folder named VIDEO_TS. That is your target for your video files.
If you were given a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then all you want from it are the video files, specifically
VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on through that series until possibly getting to
VTS_02_1.VOB, and so on. How many files you have beyond the VTS_01_1.VOB file will depend on the size of the DVD-VIDEO.
Does the above scenario apply to you?
The alternative might be someone giving a DVD disc (data disc) which contains just the VTS files mentioned which were copied from
the VIDEO_TS Folder. So, you do not get the whole VIDEO_TS Folder, just the essential video files. Does this scenario apply to you.
I see no need to replace your Premiere Elements 4 with a later version unless you have a huge project and need a later version that will be a 64 bit application running specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer.
Consider...Premiere Elements 4 and if you have DVD-VIDEO on DVD....
1. Place the DVD disc in the burner tray
2. Open Premiere Elements 4 and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard (assuming you are working in a NTSC setup)
3. Go to
Get Media
"DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader"
"Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" and its Advanced dialog.
Set the Source in the latter dialog for the drive which has your DVD disc inserted in its tray
You should see your VTS_01_1.VOB thumbnail in the "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" Advanced dialog.
With this VOB selected, click on Get Media to get the file from there into the project.
Should work fine.
Complications may be involved if the people who processed your footage gave you something other what is described above.
Please review and consider, and then we can plan our project strategy accordingly.
Thank you.
