Is there a way to document File Heirchy in finder?

I need to document file locations (in text document format) and I am wondering if there is a way to do it through finder or another application so I don't have to do it manually.

Heather,
You might consider using an object path 1.1. Unstuffing the archive will produce a script application, the purpose of which is to copy to the clipboard the path to a file or folder of your choosing. You can then paste the clipboard info directly into a TextEdit document.
Note: The script can be modified, allowing you to avoid having to paste the clipboard info manually. Open the downloaded script in your Script Editor (Applications > AppleScript > Script Editor) and append the script with the following code:
*tell application "TextEdit"*
activate
*tell application "System Events"*
*keystroke "v" using command down*
*keystroke return*
*end tell*
*end tell*
Save the result as a new script application.
Good luck!

  • Is there a way to exchange files between an iPhone and a mac?

    Hi there,
    I know the iPhone does not support bluetooth (legally), but is there a way I can share files between the phone and a macbook NOT connected to the internet?
    What I need to do is the following: I use the phone for work (bad choice, I know...) and need to be able to access e-mail and send files out. I am going to be away for a couple of weeks (I am based in the UK and going to Italy) and was thinking to use the phone for e-mailing (megabucks!!!) and the macbook to do some work that will need to be subsequently e-mailed, but as the iPhone does not support (legally at least) bluetooth, is there a way to load files onto the phone? I mean, it doesn't sound like rocket science.
    I have to say, I am overall very disappointed with the iPhone as a tool to work with. Great for games, etc., but not for work. I am really tempted to toss it in the trash (or at least return it where I got it from).
    I hope you can give me some good news here...
    Besides as a general observation, I have been spending HOURS scouring the internet trying to find solutions to some basic issues I have with the iPhone... A piece of kit that is as expensive as all that should not be so difficult to use especially if all I am trying to get what would be considered a common feature in all bog standard phones, but that's another story... At least I have the digital compass and I can check stocks and shares to make me feel better...
    Thanks

    I guess I'm confused then. DocsToGo and AirShare Pro both allow you to set up an adhoc network (direct wifi-based connection between the laptop and your iPhone, no wifi router/cell data connection required). You can then pass the documents back and forth between the two devices. I prefer DocsToGo, because it also allows you to edit/sync the docs back and forth. Is this not what you want to do? You can also email the document from within DocsToGo on the iPhone if desired.
    If you want to upload/download using a service like DropBox (which will also require a data connection, either WiFi or cell-based) DocsToGo can access that cloud-based service.
    Note that I'm NOT affiliated with DocsToGo, but I did read the instructions to find out all the stuff it can do

  • Is there a way to attach files into a Captivate Project like Adobe Presenter?

    All,
    There are things I like about Adobe Presenter and things I like better in Adobe Captivate.  Is there a way to attach files like spreadsheets, PDFs, and Word documents in Adobe Captivate like you can in Adobe Presenter?  It is real easy to do and I find it hard to imagine tha Captivate does not have an easy mechanism for doing this unlike Adobe Presenter which does it naturally.
    I am working on a project that has a complicated Table of Contents that Adobe Presenter cannot handle (yet Articulate works creates TOCs without any issue).  All the slides visible or none or lack of grouping options are not accpetable.  So I am redoing this in Captivate.  For the most part I am having no issues with the TOC but the point of this little project is to disseminate a spreadsheet to audience members that care to download it.  Here is where Presenter is better since it is real simple to do this.  Am I just lost in Captivate or do I need to do something "un-godly" complicated for a simple task?

    Hi Mike,
    I'm using Presenter too, not only Captivate. Use Presenter often as wrapper for CP-movies (if I do not need the right click functionality). And I agree: some aspects are more attractive in Presenter (thinking about the Notes panel, the automatic adaption of the languages...). But you have to miss grouping in the TOC, and for real eLearning with interactivity, branching, I go for Captivate.
    If you want some features transferred to Captivate, why not filling in a feature request? The form is on the main page of these forums.
    Just wanted to help you. The action 'Open URL or File' is not that complicated to use.

  • Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

    Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?  The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function.  Am I missing something?  It was so easy with Windows.

    Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

  • Is there a way to transfer files from a mac-book to another computer?

    I need to get files off of my damaged Macbook and I'm not sure how to do it. Is there a way to transfer files from my macbook to another computer? The damage is to the screen of my macbook and it is severe- you can only see the top left of screen, the rest is cracked/blacked out. Is there anything I can do?

    If the MacBook has a FireWire port, hook it and the other computer up with a FireWire cable, start up the MacBook with the T key held down, and copy the files off.

  • Is there a way to edit files?

    Is there a way to edit files in iTunes? What I would like to do, in one or two cases, is keep half a file.
    For example, I have one file which consists of an interview followed by a song, I'd like to discard the interview but keep the song.

    That's helpful, thanks. Is there a way of getting rid of the unwanted portion, so as to save memory?

  • In Lion 10.7.5 is there a way to view files in alphabetical order in column view?

    In Lion 10.7.5 when viewing files/folders in column view, if I select arrange by name it does not sort the names alphabetically.  Is this a bug or is there a way to view files in alphabetical order in column view?

    I've been using Column View for years and have it set to None:
    It has always shown in alphabetical order automatically.

  • Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud?

    Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud? I want to free up disk space on my Mac and assumed that the icloud would be a good way to do this, but having 'moved' 70Gb of files to the iCloud drive (I've upgraded to 200Gb storage) my Mac is still nearly full and I've realised that it seems to just Sync files just like dropbox.

    So, the big question is did the Apple guys confirm that this is how the new iCloud drive should be working?  I'm guessing, from your response, that this is indeed the case.  Are they going to fix this anytime soon?  I thought that this was a new function of the iCloud drive in Yosemite.
    I just want an online storage facility to back up my photo & music collections.  I did look at Dropbox as they have a good deal going with their Dropbox Pro, however this is still just a sync service where the Master files reside on your local disk drive - although I have read that there may be a way to work around this.  Still not ideal.

  • Is there a way to upload files directly to the cloud from bridge cc?

    Is there a way to upload files directly to the cloud from bridge cc? I use bridge to organize my files. It would be a lot easier if I didn't have to drag and drop files into the cc folder, I was hoping that there might be an easier way.
    thanks,

    When you save them just make sure you save them to your Mac and not iCloud. For those that already exist, you can move them from iCloud by dragging and dropping them to somewhere else on your Mac. To see all the files in iCloud choose file > open in either pages or numbers.

  • HT201077 Is there a way to delete files locally, on iPad, after they have been backed up in iCloud, without losing any files?

    Is there a way to delete files locally, on iPad, after they have been backed up in iCloud, without losing any files? Because iCloud is seeming like it actually doesn't back up anything.. Just clogs up all storage space on every device with duplicate images/videos. I am looking for a delete when backed up feature. Does that exist?

    My iPhone disappeared from my car while it was valet parked at the airport. I did a find my phone when I realized I had left it in the car, and it showed the location to be valet parking lot.

  • Is there a way to save files in two (2) locations at once?

    Hi everyone.
    I am a devoted mac user, but I am significantly less computer-savvy than most other mac users I know. I recently upgraded my 2.66 GHz quad core mac pro to have three 1TB hard drives. I want to use one of those drives for my FCP cache, and the other two I would like to set up (if it is possible) to save documents, video files, audio files, photos, etc.
    However, I want one of the drives to be a backup of the other. What I am asking is, is there a way to set up my hard drives such that when I save a file to one location, it automatically saves it to the 2nd? I tried for the longest time with external hard drives saving it to 2 places, but that requires a level of diligence I don't have, and I ended up with different files in each drive.
    A sales rep at my local Apple store told me there is a specific type of RAID (Alias RAID? RAID Alias? something like that) which can do exactly what I am looking for. The problem is, I don't know enough about computers to set it up or figure it out, and lugging my Mac Pro tower to the Apple store is a bit of a chore.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!
    ~Bryan

    Hello Bryan,
    I believe you are looking for a RAID 1 set up. When it comes to computers I am no pro either, so hopefully the real pros will chime in. Anyhow, you should be able to do this in disk utility, do a search here in the forums for RAID 1 and go from there.
    Hope that helps!

  • Is there a way to merge files?

    HI folks. 
    I want to be able to do something that the Web world does all the time.  Include files.  Is there a way to do that in Pages?  I have 1 main file I need to shove 124 items into.  They are all .txt files, with formatting that I can use in Pages to make what I want.  The problem is that I don't want to manually have to insert all these files every year.
    I don't think I can use a merge, because these files are not addresses (and hence not in the address book), nor are they items I can put into a Numbers spreadsheet.  They are blocks of text I want to bring into the main document. 
    I've looked for placeholders where I can insert external files, but that doesn't seem to be possible.  Perhaps I am overlooking something.
    Any advice appreciated.  Cheers

    There may be a third party software that does that, but I am not aware of any.
    The best that I can advise is to use an application that will identify (not merge) duplicates such as dupeGuru.
    http://www.hardcoded.net/dupeguru/
    Then you would have to manually merge the data.
    Ciao.
