Is there a way to rename multiple form field names with a "b" at the end?

I have a two page form, both are identical. I need to rename all the field names on page 2 with a "b" at the end of the file name so they dont conflict with that of the first page. Is there any fast way of doing this without renaming each individual one at at time? I have a LOT to do!

It's not possible with JavaScript. The name property of a field is read-only.
I would suggest making a template from the first page and then spawn a new page from it.
If you do it from a script make sure you set the bRename property to true and the form fields will be automatically renamed, but you can't specify the name, it will be in following pattern:
P<Page Number>.<Template Name>.<Original Field Name>

Is there a way to rename PDF form fields without worrying about having all the right fonts?

I'm trying to merge data into an IRS form... for some reason, they duplicated the names for a few fields which causes a problem with merging.
I've installed Acrobat X and tried to edit the form in LiveCycle, but I don't have all the fonts, so I can't do it correctly without altering the IRS form.
Can someone point to a right tool to do a simple rename of a few form field names?
Thanks in advance!

The field names don't have anything to do with fonts, but you might be better off asking in the LiveCycle Designer forum.

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 a way to rename multiple files in finder at the same time?

for example, I have a group of pictures that I want to all start with the word "start" and be listed as "start1, start2, etc" Is this possible to do as a group versus having to individaully renaming every picture?

There are some third-party renamers, or you can use an Automator Workflow.
Start Automator and create a new Workflow.
Drag in a Get Selected Finder Items Action.
Drag in a Rename Finder Items Action. It will ask if you want to copy the items so that you don't alter the originals. Since you want to actually rename the originals, don't add that action.
Set the parameters for the Rename. If you want to be able to reuse that workflow for different things, click the Options button and set it to show the action when the workflow runs. From your example, choose Make Sequential. Start with a new name and number it after the name.
Save it so you can recall it when needed.
Select your files and Run the workflow.
You could also create it as a Service so that you can select files, then ctrl-click to select the workflow from the contextual menu. If you want that, set the Service to receive Files and Fodlers in the Finder.
Skip step 1 (or delete it if you are converting it to a Service), but do the rest above. Save it with a short name so you can easily find it. It will appear in the Services submenu of the contextual menu.

Is there a way to create entry form/fields in Numbers.

Can anyone let me know if there's a way to create an entry form/field in Numbers. The idea would be to have already created a list of contacts, then at an event on an iPad, people can check off if that person is there and also enter new contact info. Thanks in advance.

Isnt this just a table? A list of people, with a check box field in the second column, followed by a few columns for contact info to be entered in?

Is there a way to open multiple files at once with the new download manager?

It was possible to do this with the old one by right-clicking and selecting "open", but I haven't been able to find a way to make it work with the new one.

I looked at the download section of the Library dialog, which you can open using either:
* Show All Downloads
* Ctrl+j
I couldn't figure out any way to open multiple items in one step. I can select multiple items, but... no way to launch them. Seems you need to double-click or press Enter to open a single selected item, and repeat for each item you want to open.

In Acrobat, is there a way to have a form field use small caps in place of lower-case text?

I found java script online that will force a field to be all caps (using it in the format tab > custom format script). But I have not been able to find anything to change the lowercase text to small caps. Anyone know how to do that (or if it just can't be done in Acrobat)?

But if you use a "small CAPs" font, you need to be sure the font is fully embedded in the PDF. If not, it is likely that users will not be able to use your form.

Is there a way to link two FrameMaker 12 books with shared content into the same RoboHelp 11 file?

This one might require some back story.
I'm working at a company with roughly 60 business units that will each be getting their own emergency response procedures (.FM files compiled into a single FrameMaker .book file for their department). I then want to link all of these books to a single RoboHelp so that when it comes time to publish all of these plans into WebHelp menus I can do that with a single batch generate/publish.
My problem is that some of the FM files within the books are shared (maybe two or more departments are at the same location or all of them share the same corporate level plans) so that when I try to link two books with a shared FM file it throws an error.
Is there away to allow multiple copies of a FM file to exist in a single RoboHelp? Or is there a better solution to the task at hand?
Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated as I am still a moderate beginner with Frame and RoboHelp.
---Corey---
P.S. Just to complicate things this will all be done via SharePoint so books and FM files live there, and then the RoboHelp output will be published there.

I think you’re looking at creating a merged RH project – one parent project that subsumes all the linked FM to RH child projects – read up on merged help on Peter’s site (grainge.org)

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset - which will normally be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

When I print a weekly calendar from Lightning, the title reads "Week 10". Is there a way to change this to my name?

I need a little more formatting flexibility from Lightning. When I print a weekly calendar, the title reads "Week 10" in large bold print. Is there a way to change this to my name? I searched through the entries in the Tools/Calendar/Advanced file, but didn't find what I was looking for.
Thanks in advance!

guigs2: I appreciate your kind response. But please let me clarify: it's not the calendar's title that I'm trying to change, but the notation of which week of the year the calendar has noted. When printing the weekly task view, the calendar's title is at the top. A subheading is then available to edit as well. But what I'd like to edit is the third heading, which this week reads "Week 10". It's the "Week 10" that I'd like to edit. Is there an entry in a configuration file that I could edit, or ???
Thank you for your time and interest!

Is there a way to select multiple files and initiate the Capitalize function?

I have hundreds of files all in upper case that are driving me crazy. I can select them one at a time, right click and then select Transformations/Capitalize. Is there a way to select multiple files and initiate the Capitalize function?

You could use Automator to do this - take a look at the article at http://www.wikihow.com/Batch-Rename-Files-in-Mac-OS-X-Using-Automator to see how this might be done.
Good luck...

Is there a way to add multiple agents to a skill group at once?

Hi All,
Is there a way to add multiple agents to a skill group at once by using bulk edit or some other means?
I am using ICM 8.0
Thanks in advance.

Hi Piyush,
There is a tricky way of doing it in the config manager. Say for example, if you have 100 agents to be added, rename the agent so that they get listed first while adding to the skill group. This will reduce the effort of searching the agents. You can scroll and select the total number of agents till it is renamed and revert back once added to the skill groups
Hope this helps
Cheers,
Dass

Quicktime pro, is there a way to export multiple movies as a batch?

Quicktime pro, is there a way to export multiple movies as a batch? Every time I export more than one at a time they try to export at the simultaineously and their progression slows tremendously. Is there a way to automate the export process so they go 1 by 1? I am embedding watermarks in .mov files of different sizes so while thier export settings are identical there is some discrepency in the format/size of the movies and the placement and size of the watermark "track".

Unfortunatley no. You must export the forms one at a time.

Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordian at a same time

Hi,
Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordain at a same time.
My requiremnets is something like this:--
Thanks for any help on this in Advance.
Regards
Munira

You can have multiple nodes open on a tree, so I guess you could open them all up on a button click.
Another option that might be possible is to use individual Accordians for each section and then use the click function to close the others.
