Is there a dialog to choose a folder?
If I use the standard Export dialog, the Export Location section has a button labeled 'Choose...' for custom folder locations. If I choose that, I get (at least on Windows) the standard directory-chooser dialog (i.e. not meant for choosing files, just directories). I'd like to invoke this in my own export plug-in but I don't see it in the LrDialogs namespace. Is there some other way I've missed? How do people handle the case where they don't want the user to choose a file, just a directory?
Wouldnt this do it? -

I'm on a windows laptop using iTunes sharing through the family to connect with Apple TV.
After choosing the folder of photos to be shared and displayed on the appletv and when I choose to show on screen, they are not shown in the order they are in the original folder.
How to pair show in a certain order, for example, sorted by name.
grateful
Julio CesarNot that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

"00004.MTS" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.
when i try log transfer from a sony nex-vg10 but my buddy can do it with no problem on my cam an macIf you copy the recordings from AVCHD cameras, you must copy the entire storage device with its directory structure intact.
I have even tried copying BACK files onto the camera and they do not show up in the transfer window under the last clip.
There is no information for those clips in the AVCHD storage device's directory index files. That means there is no way for the computer to find them.
Your last resort is most likely [ClipWrap|http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap] now, unless you can get the storage device exactly back into the state it is supposed to be according to the index file. -
RH10 - WebHelp, SSL, Navigation Toolbar Options. Is there a way to choose no default?
I have one group that's requesting their output to have a collapsed left hand navigation pane (i.e., no TOC/Index/Gloss/Search identified as default).
While I've shown the requestors HOW to collapse (click the "X"), they want it gone by default. I know we could always go Traditional - No Skin.. but we could also write content in Latin, too.
So, is there a method to choose "None" as the default toolbar for a defined Single Source Layout (even outside the WebHelp Options GUI)?Yes there is but you'd have to ensure your content has the necessary navigational links to enable users to get around the content without a TOC, index or search. In the WebHelp SSL click on the Navigation dialog and deselect all the toolbar butons.

Dialog to choose directory problem
Am I right that there is a file chooser dialog in the normal swing, but
no directory chooser dialog? Is there a way to use the file dialog so
that I can have my users pick a directory? If not, is this planned to be included in future releases or is
there a free third-party dialog?
Thanks for help!I believe you could change this using the setFileSelectionMode(...) method.

Choosing which folder to save downloaded files to as soon as file is downloaded?
I'm completely new to this so if there's a simple solution to this, do forgive me and thanks in advance for your patience!
So I've just started messing about with Automator today and read about Applescript.
I'm basically trying to find a way of having a prompt for me to select which folder I'd like to save downloaded files to, as soon as the files are downloaded into that folder.
I've tried a couple of things:
Setting up a Folder Action in Automator for my Downloads folder.
'Revealing items in Finder'
'Get selected items in Finder' (thinking that this somehow grabs the items that were revealed and selected in the previous step)
Then running an Applescript (as an 'action' in Automator) to do something like this:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
tell application "Finder"
set the destination_folder to [choose folder with prompt choose folder]
end tell
end adding folder items to
Or something like this:
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Finder"
select files
move files to [choose folder with prompt choose folder]
end tell
return input
end run
As you can probably tell, I really haven't a clue (although this is addictive and I can't deny I'm enjoying myself)... I've tried a few more variations based on scripts I've seen dotted around the web doing similar things but I didn't hold on to them so I can't show you them. The script actually runs really smoothly, and runs through with no errors - I copy a file into my downloads folder (to test) from another folder. The Downloads folder opens up automatically, selects and shows me the file I've just added then pops up with the window prompting me to choose a folder. It's just that when I do end up choosing the folder, the file doesn't move at all. The window disappears then pops back up again, then disappears after I press 'Choose' for the second time, as though something has happened. I suppose the files that the Finder revealed, selected and 'got' had no connection to the following action/script?
What do I need to change? As I said, completely new to all of this so please do treat me like I'm a bit stupid!
Thanks!Others have already given alternative pointers to solve your specific problem, but I can understand the desire to roll your own
From your script samples, you're on the right track, but are missing a couple of key concepts. I'll try to clarify.
Your script:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
tell application "Finder"
set the destination_folder to [choose folder with prompt choose folder]
end tell
end adding folder items to
First up, let's correct that 'choose folder' command. Specifically, the prompt - it should be a string (enclosed in quotes). As it stands, conceptually, you're kind of invoking 'choose folder' again, and the result of that is used as the prompt on the first 'choose folder'. Not going to work so well.
Instead, your choose folder should look more like:
set the destination_folder to choose folder with prompt "Select a folder:"
Note how I've quoted the text and now it's interpreted correctly - the selected folder will now be stored in destination_folder.
Now that you have the destination folder, what you need is the files to move. Fortunately, Folder Actions provide this for you in the way the command is called:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
In this case, these_items is a list of the newly added files., so all you need to do is move these files to the destination_folder:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
set the destination_folder to choose folder with prompt "Select a folder:"
tell application "Finder"
move these_items to folder destination_folder
end tell
end adding folder items to
Note how I've moved the 'choose folder' line outside of the 'tell application "Finder"' block - there's no need for it to be in there, and this way it will prevent the context switch where the Finder comes active to ask you for the folder.
Incidentally, this is a 'pure' AppleScript implementation, not an Automator action. The Automator action would be radically different in that the files would be passed into your workflow - you'd need to store these in a variable, then prompt for the destination folder and store that in another variable, then use the move Finder items action to move the files, like:
Personally, I prefer the AppleScript option -
Choosing a folder from the hard drive
Hi
I need to allow the user to choose a directory to save a logfile to from a Business One form that should get launched when they click on a browse button. I have currently got the below code which is located within the the ItemEvent.
Dim FolderWindow As New Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog
FolderWindow.RootFolder = Environment.SpecialFolder.MyComputer
FolderWindow.ShowDialog()
The FolderBrowserDialog window does appear however there is nothing shown where the folder directories should be so therefore not allowing for a directory to be chosen. If I however copy the exact same code and place it into the sub Main for example it works OK.
I've had a look around the forum and theres a couple of people who look as if they've also had this problem but there's no fixes given. Does anyone know why the folders aren't being shown or another way I can allow the user to choose a directory from the Hard Drive?
Thanks
SteveHello Steven
In the last year i have published a solution in c# and vb.net which is working properly.
you can donwload a simple source from:
http://www.progi-tech.hu/ShowFileOpenDialog.zip
before you call the browser window, you can tell the .NET to Acess to the filesystem by the following .NET code
Dim f As New FileIOPermission(PermissionState.None)
f.AllLocalFiles = FileIOPermissionAccess.AllAccess

Unable to choose a folder while publishing to portal from query designer
Hi,
I'm trying to publish a report to portal from query designer using 'export to portal' option. I'm having two problems here and may be they are related.
Problem 1 - When I click on the dialog box to choose a pcd folder name, i get the following warning...
"The BEx Web application does not correspond to the domain with which the folder selection dialog is called Another cause of the problem may be that BI and portal server are not running in the same domain Notify the system administrator or maintain table RSPORT_T_PORTAL and take note of the server configuration section in SAP note 444247"
BEx reports created from portal are working fine. The portal and BI are running on same domain and RSPORT_T_PORTAL has FQDN. What am I missing here?
Problem 2 - When i say ok and continue, it gives me the option to choose the folder. When I pick a folder (gave complete authorization to this folder), and click on Transfer to continue, nothing happens. The button doesn't respond. Technically it should copy the folder path to the previous dialog box from where I should be able to publish.
Could somebody please help me with this problem?
Thank You,
AshwinHello Ashwin,
I would start with a very simple thing: add the domains (URLs) to your trusted sites list in the Internet Browser.
Maybe it solves both problems.
Kind Regards,

Step 1. I open a web page.
Step2. I press ctrl+d.
Step3. I do not see the window where I choose the folder I wish the bookmark to be saved in.
Step4. I clicked the star button on the right corner of location bar.
Step5. I see the window now.
Step 6. When I move the cursor down that window to choose the folder it again disappears.
Step 7. I randomly click at a spot in the area where the window disappeared.

I recently upgraded to the iphone 5 and managed to sort the transition out with little trouble but noticed when I tried to put my music on that Itunes has messed with album info and either it or me has generated several copies of the same albums over the years and it makes it quite dificult to sort it all out before reloading on the phone. To stop the chaos I had hoped to clear the library and start again but cant find a way to do it. I was hoping to sort all my music out in original files and consolidate them into a proper folder. HOw do I do this. I notice there is an add fole and folder button but no take away??? is there an easy way?
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If you have multiple references to the same files then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

I acquired a new iMac, and need to transfer the Smart Mialboxes I have set up on my Mac Pro to the iMac. Mail is already set up to sync thorough iCloud, but the Smart mailboxes are - apparently - set up for individual machines. The only solutions I have been able to locate involve moving Preference files from one machine to the other; the problem is that there is no longer a 'Mail' folder set up for individual Users (actually there is no Mail folder at ALL under 10.8.4), and I am unable to locate any .plist files for Mail at all. Any idea how to make this haoppen?
Create a new smart mailbox. Does it sync? If not, do as below.
Back up all data.
1. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
2. Repeat with this line:
/Library/Mail/Bundles
This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash. -
Is there a way to download a folder or all the contents of a folder?
Is there a way to download a folder or all the contents in a folder? I uploaded all the photos into my Creative Cloud but now I am out of the office and working on another computer so I need all those images so I can create a DVD Slide show for A&M. I need all the images, over 100 of them. Is there a way I can download this entire folder or at least all the images in the folder at one time? All I can find for download is to download each image separately one at a time. I can't even select them all and say download every image selected. I don't want to sit here for hours downloading one image at a time, that's just ridiculous.

Is there a way to choose multiple "send to" addresses at the same time?
I would like to send mass e-mails to different people from my contact list for different topics, picking the addresses each time rather than using a group. I have found the " + " sign for accessing the contact list, but I can't figure out how to select more than one address at a time (and then having to go back to the " + " sign to select the next contact, etc. Is there a way to choose the contacts you want to include in a send field in ONE step like we used to be able to do in the last version of this app?
Is there a way to choose the contacts you want to include in a send field in ONE step like we used to be able to do in the last version of this app?
No. You can kind of do it by dragging from the Contacts app, but the default address (first in list, I think) will be used. I you have contacts with multiple email addresses, you’d have to go to each in the address field and select the correct one.
