Is there a way to exclude files from source paths using patterns

Hi
Does anyone know of any way to exclude files from source paths using patters rather than individually selecting the files? UI doesn't allow to specify any pattern. But if you look at the jpr file there are other places where patterns are allowed. Can the same pattern be copied and applied to excluded files?
Pat

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

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.

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.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.

A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

My apologies for the lack of photos, here is my post again with photos.

I have a Sony DCR-SR32 HDD video camera which does not appear in the list of compatible cameras for imovie '11. Does anyone know if there is way of importing video from this camera to imovie ?
Thanks
Pheona

Greetings Pheona,
That appears to be a hard drive based camecorder. Usually these mount on the desktop of your computer as a little white hard drive icon. If you go inside you should be able to find the movie files the camera is saving. See what format they are (the last 3 letters at the end of the file name is a good place to start).
You can drag the movie files from the camera hard drive to the computer to copy them. Then convert them with a video file conversion program to a format iMovie can understand.
Try converting one of the files using a video file conversion program like Video Monkey: http://videomonkey.org/downloads/
In the "Convert to" drop down menu choose "DV" (Preferred), "Quicktime", or "MP4". Then import the resulting file into iMovie and see if that works any better.
If that program can't convert the files you can try another file conversion program:

Is there a way to access files from an incomplete backup

I returned the phone without realizing my backup was incomplete. Is there anyway to access the files from the incomplete backup? It shows 3.7 gigabytes were backed up.

Thanks.
I'm not sure if they recover optical media either. Will have to look more carefully at their site.
But the fact that there are many PC optical media recovery programs that feature optical media recovery leads me to doubt that Data Rescue can do it.
But like I say, I will look more carefully at their page and perhaps send them an e-mail to be sure.
Appreciate the answer. It was helpful.

Is there a way to move files from Windows Media player to Itunes?

I have a lot of files in windows media player from Walmart.com. Is there any way to move these into my itunes library to sync onto the Nano?

Do you know what format the video is in and if its protected? most likely you will need to convert it, there quite a few converters out there. (i can't remember any)

Is there a way to migrate files from 10.4.11 to a new Macbook Pro?

I want to buy a new Macbook pro, and want to transfer important files from my old iBook G4. The folks at our Apple Store tell me I cannot migrate data from 10.4.11 to the new operating system. Is there any way to do it?

Hello,
A new MacBook Pro may not allow the same applications to be installed (if they are PPC specific applications)
Other applications will be updated to the current release.
The easiest way for you to transfer your personal files (not applications) is to use a USB pen drive or USB external drive.
Copy all your content to the USB drive and then from your USB drive to your MacBook Pro.
There are other ways to do this without a USB drive.
If your on the same wireless network you could setup file share between the two Macs and then copy files from one to another. (I've done this between my MacBook Pro and PowerBook) then it would be a simple case of dragging files from your iBook to your MacBook Pro over the same network.
You could use a cross over Ethernet cable and run a cable between the two macs.
Your new MacBook Pro may need an thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter to do that.
USB Drive would be easier and they don't cost a lot.
Best of luck

Is there a way to transfer files from my Ipad to a Mac Mini?

The Migration Assistant didn't work, and neither did the sharing, so I'm down to downloading files from the Ipad. I really don't want to transfer files with a flash drive, because it would take hours

The files got to the Ipad from my PC running itunes. I've been using the USB cable to sync . I wasn't able to move anything from the PC (Win 7) to the Mac Mini, so I was wondering if there was some way to sync the empty itunes on the mini with the files on the Ipad. Thanks.

Is there a way to exclude text from word count?

Hi,
I'm writing a research project at the moment and it's about 12000 words. I have to state the word count at the start and it is supposed to exclude everything which comes in reference brackets, eg (Ames, 2009, p.103)
I want to check the word count at the moment so want to exclude all references from the word count, but I dont want to simply delete them all because I still need to work on the doucment!
Is there a way to do that?!

Hi Brigit,
It can be done (or at least estimated closely) using only tools included in Pages, Here's the process:
Record the word count at the bottom left of the document window.
Press command-F to open the Find/Replace dialogue.
Enter an opening parenthesis character ( "(" without the quotes ) into the Find box.
Enter the same character into the Replace with box.
Click Replace all.
Note the count of items replaced below the Replace box (one in the example, your post above):
If all in text references are similar to the sample one provided, each contains four 'words'. Multiply the count by four, subtract the result from the document's word count, and you'll have the result you're looking for.
If your references are of different lengths (eg. (Ames and Smith, 2003, pp.301-303) has a word count of 7), you'll need to adjust the multiplier.
Note that if you have parentheses in your document that are NOT enclosing references, these will be included in the count.
Regards,
Barry

Since you haven't upgraded your iPhone from 4.3 there will also not be an iCloud back-up.,,, so.....
So there is no way to restore it, but before you start rekeying your contacts you should.
1. Back it up on Itunes (11.0.1) and a computer, it will help you upgrade your IOS (6.0.1) at the same time.
2. When complete ensure you have a back-up.
3. Set-up iCloud and iCloud back-up
4. Start keying....
Sorry in advance..

Is there a way to protect files from access of the users? (No cxt or dxr method).

I need to have a lot of files under several directory.
I need also to allow the projector to access the directory but not for the users..
I cant' in this case to make an extenal cxt or dxr file.
Is there e way to prevent the acces to directory, end/or file, by the users?
Thanks.

No. The Camera Connection Kit (USB and SD Card adapter) if used for import only. There is no way to save to an external device natively.

Is there a way to download files from the internet from my iPod?

Such as pictures, music, or video? When I go to a downloading music site I can only listen to the music, not download it. Is there any way to do the right click save as action from the iPod?

No you cannot.

Is there a way to transfer files from a hard drive that wont boot up?

my hard drive wont boot up. even when i try to reinstall it says that it cant be reinstalled on the drive, is there a way to get the files off before i wipe it clean? (assuming i can even do that)

If the MacBook has a Firewire port then you could connect it to another Mac with Firewire and use Target Disk Mode to access the drive and transfer files assuming the drive is accessible. Or if you don't have Firewire ports then you can remove the drive, install it in an external enclosure, connect it to another Mac and transfer data if the drive is accessible.
If neither of the above are feasible then you can try using recovery software. Recovery software comes on bootable discs, but you will need an external drive to which the recovered files can be saved.
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
