Is there a way to show files in finder?

I was wondering if there is a menu command [or even better, a keyboard shortcut] to view the actual file of a photo in the finder?
Something very similar to what iTunes has when you choose 'Show Song File' or apple-R?

Hi barbtastic,
There is a way to find out where the original photo is that you have in your iPhoto Library. On this page there are iPhoto Applescripts. One of them is "show image file" I tried it and it does work for iPhoto 5. If you click on the image in your library window and then use the applescript it will open up a finder window with the image file, and you can see it's path of where it is.
http://www.apple.com/applescript/iphoto/
Download the scripts from the link
Once downloaded, put the folder "iPhoto Scripts" in ~/Library/Scripts
Now navigate to Applications/Applescript
In that Applescript folder is an icon that says "Install Script menu"
double click that icon to install the Script menu in your menu bar. You might have an item called ScriptMenu.menu instead. follow directions on next link
http://www.appleclub.com.hk/applescript/script_menu/
It will look like a little black scrolled paper.
Or you might have an item named AppleScript Utility.app in the folder. Double click to open it and make sure you have show script menu in menu bar checked.
Now open iPhoto, click on a photo to highlight it
Go to the menu bar and click and hold on the Applescript icon
scroll down to iPhoto Scripts, then scroll to "show image file"
Wait for the Finder top open a finder window showing you where the image is.

    If we open a Document from Untrusted location,the file is opened in Protected mode and a Red Message bar is shown below the ribbon for Excel,Word apps.
    Can we show this type of similar message bar with custom Message in Outlook or any other Office App.

    Are you displaying an MSG file? Keep in mind that Outlook creates a temporary copy in one of Outlook folders, so strictly speaking your are not looking at a file.

    Is there any way to show the file name super imposed on the slides in Premiere Elements 9?
    I am setting up pictures as slide show along with some movie clips but wanted the desctiptive file names appearing with each picture.
    Thanks!

    Yes. In Timeline mode, you add it to an upper video track as a title.
    I show you the basics of titles in the Basic Training tutorials at Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com.

  • 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 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 show 2 videos at once?

    Is there a way to show 2 videos at once?

    Welcome to the forum.
    What version of PrE are you using?
    What OS version are you running it on?
    The answers to those questions can be useful in giving you specific instructions.
    For general discussion, the answer is yes.
    Now, how do you want to display the two Videos, such as side-by-side, with each taking up 1/2 of the Frame, or in some other configuration?
    Basically, what you are talking about is PiP (Picture in Picture), but exactly how you will need to set things up will be dictated by the version of PrE, and then exactly how you want those two Videos to display.
    Good luck,

  • 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?

    I'm in a multi-page Pages document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    Not on my document. I have a 7 page document open. The "flashing vertical bar" is at the top of page 3. I have the thumbnail view showing. I click page break and two blank pages are added to the end of my document. I have to scrool thru the pages to see that the 2 pages were added as they do not appear in the layout view... I'm not sure if it is inserting a "section" as it adds two blank pages.. But I am clicking on "INSERT PAGE BREAK".. So guess there are still a lot of bugs to fix..
    Thanks again

  • Is there a way to show the end dates of the previous month stand out?

    is there a way to show the end dates of the previous month in bold or make it stand out? so 30,31 and 1st of this month don't all look the same? For example the 30,31st get a regular text since they are a part of the the last month and this month gets bold dates? Its hard to read the dates anyways.

  • 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.

  • Preview 5.0.3 keeps hiding my text annotations, forcing me to find them 1 by 1 and double click on them to show their text, is there a way to show all?

    Somtimes, Preview 5.0.3 will hide my text annotations, forcing me to find them 1 by 1 and double click on them to show their text. After clicking on the Pen icon on the sidebar, i can see what slide numbers they are on, and have to go through 1 by 1 and double click them. For 200 slide classes, this becomes very annoying, is there a way to show all? or just to prevent it from hiding them in the first place?

    And to answer the tecnical aspects of your post in detail:
    --I want to know how to "see" what he has privately browsed
    You can't.
    -I want to know how to "see" what he has deleted.
    You can't.
    --I  want to know if being his IPhone 5s and Ipad 3 are synced, is what I have found on the Iphone (**** sites) but they are NOT on the Ipad, so does that mean he browsed privately, but forgot to click on "private" on the Iphone?   --
    What is browsed on one device has nothing to do with what is browsed on any other device. If you see something in a browser history in the iPhone, then either he didn't click "private" or didn't clear the history on that device.
    I also want to know if I synced both of our IPads, will what he looks at thru safari privately or not show up on my IPad Air? (most likely not, but I need to ask)
    No. Again, browser history is not synced to other devices.
    If he's surfing and either using Private Browsing or clearing the history, then there's no way you can see what sites he's visited. You'll just have to decide how to deal with that from there.
    Regards.
