Is there a any way to refresh/reload file icon in finder 10.8?

Hi,
I am looking for programatically to refresh/reload file icon in finder. I already tried below solutions.
1) apple script
a) tell application "Finder"
      update POSIX file "File Path"
    end tell
b)
tell application "Finder"
          repeat with i from 1 to count of Finder windows
                    tell window i
                              try
  update every item with necessity
                              end try
                    end tell
          end repeat
end tell
both are working before 10.8, not working after 10.8
2) Apple event
        err = AEBuildAppleEvent( kAEFinderSuite, kAESync, typeApplSignature,
                                &kFinderSig, sizeof(OSType), kAutoGenerateReturnID,
                                kAnyTransactionID, &theEvent, NULL, "'----':alis(@@)", itemAlias );
Not working in 10.8, worked in 10.7
3) Refresh Quicklook cache.
4) Changing the modified date of file. This works, but need solution without changing file system.
5) relaunch finder. This works,but need solution without relaunch. This is ugly.
It looks finder cache the icon.
Thanks

  • Any way to extract *.sca files

    hi there,
    is there is any way to extract *.sca files, or you have to use JSPM or SDM tool to deploy these patches......Please let me know...thanks Kumar

    HI,
    If you want to compress or extract the files i.e., to create or extract SCA or SDA archives use the command jar -xvf filename (in HP-UX).If you are not able to do then try to run this command from the folder /usr/sbin.

  • Is there any way to create a file compatible with Premiere Pro

    Is there any way to create a file in Premiere elements that is compatible with Premiere Pro and that can be used in Premiere Pro

    Consternation
    The important information that I do not see mentioned nor offered by you.
    1.What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system it is running? What version of Premiere Pro do you want to use?
    The Premiere Pro Import Supported Formats seem to indicate that it will accept the Premiere Elements project.prel (project file) on Windows Only.
    Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Supported file formats
    This may or may not be possible depending on damaged projects or outdated elements.
    2. If you want to export your Premiere Elements Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and subsequently import that into your Premiere Pro version, that "should" work. You would go to the Premiere Elements Publish+Share/Computer/ and make a selection based on what the Premiere Pro Import Supported file formats are and what you need. I can help you with that. But, details first.
    But, just a "beware"...when you get to Premiere Elements 11 or 12 (if that is the version involved) Publish+Share/Computer/ there are several categories, but all you see is Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The rest of the list that includes AVI and QuickTime which both need to be scrolled to all of the time to see them, not just sometimes, with the thin scroll bar to the right of the list of choices. You can export files
    with AVI file extension, under Publish+Share/Computer/AVI
    with MOV file extension, under Publish + Share/Computer/QuickTime
    And, if you do not have QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, you are not going to have presets for the QuickTime export.
    Remember, there is more to an export than just its file extension. Know your other export properties as well.
    In many cases, you can customize the export settings to suit your requirements.
    Problems will exist if you are trying to go from Premiere Elements Windows to Premiere Pro Mac or vice versa.
    I would be glad for the opportunity to help you with this issue, but details are needed.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    Thanks.

    Probably dead if you have tried to charge it.
    You should never try to charge or turn on a wet electronic device.
    You should let it dry for  a week or so, then try.

  • I had to do a restore on my I-phone 4 because it froze. I lost all of my apps, music photos and contacts. Does anyone know if there is any way at all to retreive the photos if I hadn't uploaded them to my home computer yet. Thanks for your help!

    My I-phone 4 froze when I was trying to sync some music to it tonight from i-tunes. I lost all my contact info, apps and most importantly photos. I had just returned from a vacation to the mountains and had 200 or so photos that are now lost I really would like to know if there is any way to retrieve them because I hadn`t uploaded them to my computer yet. I don`t mind if I have to pay a professional to retrieve them I just want to know if its possible. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks for listening and any help anyone might have.

    If the photos were not backed up with a recent backup, there is NO way to retrieve them.

    I'm wondering if there is any way to view the results of the form other than in a table?  Is it possible to print responses one by one in PDF format, or word, etc?  I'd like to create a form for proposal applications, and the spreadsheet format results are nearly unusable for this type of form.

    Hi Nalani500 ,
    Yes, you can print the response in a PDF by following the steps suggested below.
    1) Go to the response file
    2) Select the response you want to print
    3) Click on Save as PDF button and it would save the selected response in PDF format.

  • Is there any way to get the files from other computer ?

    Hai all,
    I have 2 computers connected. I know the IP address of other computer. Is there any way to get the files from other computer. (for e.g. I want to get the files from specific folder. In Java netwroking is it possible? (Any programs)
    regards,
    Namanc

    Bro Take it easy.
    Think you need to send a Image file named ("abc.gif")
    now develop a server using ServerSocket and connect it in local IP and any PORT
    For example i think ur server is connected in "localhost" and 9000 port.
    Now make ur server educated using some commands.
    For example:
    FileName: <File Name String>
    [Means new file is sending by connected client]
    FileSize: <File size long or int value>
    [ So that ur server can determind about the total length of sender file]
    DataModeOpen
    [Now your client will send its image data, this command means your client software is sending data]
    fjadlkfjaofaijojfwoeiurfodkjflsajlfksa
    l23j4lj23lkjlasjfoq23j4rokjelfkjasldkf
    2o3j4lk2j3ljslakdjf2l3j4 l23kjlk23k4j
    DataModeClose
    [Means file sending finished]
    Close
    [Means your client connection is closed]
    Now develop a client supporting this command.
    For example(Server):
    String getFileName=null;
    long getFileSize=0;
    public handleCommand(String getCmd) {
        if(getCmd.startsWith("FileName")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileName=   splitData[1];
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("FileSize")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileSize=Long.parseLong(splitData[1]);
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeOpen")) {
               //data mode open so receive data
              receiveData();
              outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeClose")) {
              //close client socket
             getClientSocket.close();
    }For client:
    DataInputStream dataIn=null;
    BufferedOutputStream bout=null;
    public sendFile(bytes[] getBytes) {
            //if ok found then do other or show error message
        if(sendCmd("FileName:"+getFileName)) {
            if(sendCmd("FileSize:"+getFileSize)) {
                if(sendCmd("DataModeOpen")) {
                   bout.write(getBytes);
                } else {
                   showError(3);
            } else {
                   showError(2);
       } else {
            showError(1);

    I hope this will help you with your problem:
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    You can restore your backup whenever you want from iTunes or iCloud, depending where you made it.
    Let us know if you succeeded or need any further help.
    I believe you are missing the point. The OP has already restored from back up, but failed to include a specific app in the back up and is trying to recover data for it, which in this case is not possible.

  • Seriously? Is there not any way to view DRM-protected books downloaded from iTunes on my MacBook Pro?  I cannot believe that there is no way around this?

    Seriously?  Is there not any way to view and read DRM-protected books downloaded on iTunes on my MacBook Pro?  I cannot believe that there is not any way around this!  I seem to constantly get confounded by what seems to be the most amazingly unbelievable conundrums with Apple despite having been a champion of the company for years and years.  This relates to tethering on iPhone, external Apple hard drives only being usable with MacBook Air, and now this! If anyone is aware of a hack or way around this I would appreciate some guidance.  Thanks!

    "Seriously? "
    Yes.
    " Is there not any way to view and read DRM-protected books downloaded on iTunes on my MacBook Pro?"
    There is not.

    Believe it.

    Last of my questions, will any wireless flash drive be compatible with my ipad or no??
    That's a broad question - it's possible that other wireless flash drives may work, but it is doubtful that all of them will. I am mostly familiar with AirStash, and it has been around for a long time. There are also portable wireless hard disk drives such as the Seagate Wireless Plus or SSDs such as the Kingston Wi-Drive. You have plenty of options to consider.
