Is there a way to rename a share in Leopard?

Before Leopard is was possible to use the utility Sharepoints to rename a share without changing the name of the folder that was being shared. I have not yet found a way to rename a share using the Sharing preference in Leopard.
Any know of a way to rename shares in Leopard?
Thanks

I'm not aware of any GUI tool that does this in Leopard. you can change the names of the share points by hand by editing the appropriate plists located in /private/var/db/dslocal/nodes/Default/config/SharePoints/ but that's a pretty horrible way to do it and is the opposite of user friendly. don't know any other way though.

  • Is there a way to rename a template without breaking existing pages using the 'old' template?

    Hi guys,
    I am using CQ 5.4. and I want to refactor existing code of a project. Part of that involves renaming existing templates. Renaming one locally, I saw that existing pages break because they can't 'find' the old template. is there a way to rename a template without breaking those pages?

  • Is there a way to rename all photos in a folder?

    Is there a fast way to rename all the photos in one folder e.g. I have diffreent folders say "wedding" and "birthday" with alot of photos in each. Is there a way to rename all photos in the folder to the same name like all called wedding?
    Also when i open photos they automatically open with preview, do I need to impost them into iPhoto or should they just automatically save there?
    Tracy

    Tracy
    Are these photos in iPhoto? If so, then use the Photos -> Batch Change command.
    IF not then you can use a batch file renamer such as Name Mangler
    iPhoto is a database and can only show pics that have been imported to the DB.

  • 5800XM Is there a way to rename an Application?

    I have installed the Sudoku widget obtained from the Nokia Hong Kong website onto my 5800 XpressMusic.  I assume because I don't have the Chinese language installed on my phone, the widget is showing up in my Applications menu with 2 boxes (੡੡) where the Sudoku App name should be.  Strangely when you play the game it is all in English.  Anyway, is there a way of renaming the Application so it shows the word Sudoku?
    Solved!

    Unfortunately it's not possible.  I've also tried that app and it is annoying to see.

    You can easily have an iCloud account that is separate from the Apple ID that is used for iTunes purchases. Take a look at the article below to walk you through that specific setup process of have an account for iCloud and one for Store purchases.

    Are you using the latest version of Silverkeeper? - v.2.0.2 is stated to be compatible with Snow Leopard.

  • Is there a way to install OS X Snow Leopard on the 2014 MacBook Pro Retina?

    I have a 2014 MacBook Pro Retina that I purchased a few months ago. Is there a way to install OS X Snow Leopard on it? I do not have a DVD drive and do not own OS X Snow Leopard discs. I do have a retail copy .dmg file of it though. Can I copy it over to a USB flash drive and install it on a partition of my hard drive? How do I do that, if it's possible? Can you list the steps? I would appreciate it!
    Thanks!
    P.S. Please don't ask why.

    Presumably, you want Snow Leopard in order to be able to run PowerPC applications.  If so, more information can be found here:

  • Is there a way to rename multiple Itunes songs at the same time

    Is there a fast way to rename multiple Itunes songs at once, instead of renaming one song inside Itunes at a time? For example; So I can select multiple songs at once and rename each songs Genre all at the same time? Without needing to rename song by song?
    Casey Computer

    You can click on multiple songs, and change info in the Get Info > Info screen.  This applies to most fields EXCEPT Name.  iTunes has never allowed the simultaneous change of Name of multiple songs, presumably on the grounds that it is usually an error to do so.
    Regarding Genre, yes, this can be changed for multiple songs at once, using the Info tab of Get Info.

  • Is there any way that I can share an in-app purchase over multiple devices even if they are under the same iTunes account?

    So there are several iOS devices in my family and on one of our iPads we have purchased an in-app purchase. I also have the same app on another iPad and would like to also have access to that in-app purchase. Both of these devices are under the same iTunes account so is there a way to share this in-app purchase across multiple devices?

  • Is there a way to rename an ASM DiskGroup from the Disks in 11g ?

    Hello,
    I've been looking for that and I didn't find anything except that it may not have been possible with 10g.
    I'd like to rename a diskgroup to reuse it in the same ASM instance from a netapp snapclone. Of course I would prefer to do it without any ASM instance accessing it but afterall, if there is a way... (even not supported; it's to enable a set of testing database all together) !
    Thank you for your help.
    Gregory

    Hi Gregory,
    since all information about ASM Disk, Diskgroup, etc. are stored directly on the disks there is no way to rename the diskgroup at the moment (hopefully in the future, like a way to change diskgroup redundance).
    Only option you have is to create a new diskgroup and copy the datafiles over with either RMAN or DBMS_FILE_TRANSFER. Then rename the file to point to new location. (alter datafile).
    But since you want to duplicate it into a different ASM Diskgroup, that will not help you. The option left is to change the Disk Header information directly. Unfortunately I do not have any information about the disk header itself...
    Hopefully someone can give you a hint what all to change there if you would DD this to a file change it and store it back...
    Regards
    Sebastian

  • Is there a way to rename a group of tracks being imported to Itunes?

    Usually, when I import audiobooks from CD to ITunes, I end up with a series of tracks named "Track 01" through "Track XX". I have ITunes set to search the internet for track names, but audiobook tracks aren't songs and seldom have names entered on-line. So, if an audiobook has 11 CDs, I end up with 11 sets of tracks named "Track 01" through "Track XX".
    I like to listen to audiobook tracks in the sequence in which they were recorded. The only way I've found to keep the tracks in order in a multi-disk import is to prefix each track name with a sequence number or letter (for instance the number of the CD). Unfortunately, this requires editing a couple hundred track names - one at a time.
    Is there any way to highlight multiple tracks and insert a prefix in front of ALL track names selected, or to have ITunes add a "relative disk number" as part of the import?
    Thanks

    Hi!
    You can import a CD, then click on all the titles at once and choose information, there you can either mark each cd as "CD x of y" and / or you can enter continuing numbers in addition to the title of the audio book.
    I hope this helps -it is my first reply..

  • Is there a way to boost Safari? Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Safari 5.1.7 is very slow, almost dead. Thank you.

    Is there a way to boost Safari? I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Safari 5.1.7 which has become very slow, almost dead. Many thanks!

    If Safari is getting very slow:
    (Presumably you regularly empty your Safari cache by deleting the following file:
    Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/cache.db
    and clear your History)
    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
    and here:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
    If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
    If your computer is part of a network:please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/best_practices/#your_network and follow the advice given.
    If you use a Router, make sure it has the latest firmware installed.
    One reason for a slowness in page loading may be the 'DNS Pre-fetching' feature of Safari 5.x as is described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US
    You can cancel DNS pre-fetching by going to Terminal and typing:
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    You have to restart Safari for it to take effect.
    If Safari seems to hang for ages:
    If you have a lot of tabs open and/or a lot of pages running Flash, Safari can sometimes 'hang', requiring a restart of Safari. This can often be inconvenient, and as it is rarely Safari itself that is hanging but merely one of its plug-ins, usually Flash, there is a way using Terminal to restart the plug-ins (without restarting Safari and losing your tabs) by quitting the WebPluginHost process:
    Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder in /Applications and type
    killall -9 WebKitPluginHost
    Note that this command kills all Safari plug-ins, not just Flash. All plug-ins should start back up when you reload the page.
    Then go back to Safari and refresh any pages that were using the Flash plug-in. This also fixes the Beachball of Death. Try this whenever Safari gets slow or freezes. The later versions of Flash 10.1 onwards appear to have improved the situation somewhat, but haven't completed eliminated it.
    For this and other reasons Apple switched their websites to HTML5 in January 2011:
    http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/01/26/apple_revamps_its_public_website_u sing_html5.html
