Is there an easy way to use the VMware Studios Open Source download?

I noticed there was a relatively current open source download package for VMware Studio, so I downloaded it, hoping there were instructions on applying the new software to the appliance.  The download was a tar.gz file, which appears to include source code for those OSS packages.  
So, I am concluding that my hope that this was an update to VMware Studio was unfounded.  
Is there any news, at all, about plans to update VMware Studio?  It is obvious that a VMware-internal tool exists as they use it to create their own appliances which appear to have fixed some issues, such as IE10 access.  
Thanks Dan

You do not need to invoke Finder to do this. Create a new empty Automator workflow and use the "Run Shell Script" option. Paste in the following....
mv ~/Downloads/* ~/.Trash
You can then save the workflow as an application, attach it as a Finder action or add it to the scripts menu, whichever you like better.
If you would like to bypass the Trash and just completely delete the Downloads folder contents immediately, then paste in this command:
rm -rf ~/Downloads/*

  • HT1660 is there an easy way to delete the whole itunes library and and start again. I notice there is only an add file/folder button but no remove facility

    I recently upgraded to the iphone 5 and managed to sort the transition out with little trouble but noticed when I tried to put my music on that Itunes has messed with album info and either it or me has generated several copies of the same albums over the years and it makes it quite dificult to sort it all out before reloading on the phone. To stop the chaos I had hoped to clear the library and start again but cant find a way to do it. I was hoping to sort all my music out in original files and consolidate them into a proper folder. HOw do I do this. I notice there is an add fole and folder button but no take away??? is there an easy way?

    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If you have multiple references to the same files then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

  • Is there an easy way to clear the contents of Download Folder?

    Is there an easier way to clear out files (send to trash) from the downloads folder, other than dragging one by one? The downloads folder closes immediately upon dragging one file out.

  • Is there no easy way to change the computer that an iPhone is synched with?

    I have my iPhone 4 synched to an old Power Mac.  I just bought a new Macbook and want to transfer my iPhone info to this new computer so I can synch and update software from this new computer.  I am getting rid of the Power Mac.  Is there no easy way to do this?  I can't seem to figure it out.  I don't want to lose my info or iTunes library.  Apple is usually so intuitive, but this seems to be incredible complicated.  Any ideas?

    This link says "If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so".  I don't understand.  Isn't it ALL synched to my iPhone?  Isn't that why it's ON my iPhone?  This is absurdly confusing.

  • Is there an easy way to count the number of albums I have in my library?

    Hi, there is probably a very easy way to find out how many albums I have in my iTunes library - but I haven't discovered it yet! (looking for something a bit like word count in MS Word document?)
    Powerbook G4 15 1.67   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   my first Mac - where have I been!?!

    Click on the Library icon in the source list Go Edit->Show Browser.
    This will split the library window into subwindows listing each genre, artist and album, at the top of these windows it will show the total for each of these categories.
    Apart from being the easiest way to count your albums, it's also a really useful way to view the library or any playlist. You can turn off the genre subwindow through the general preferences.
    Hope that helps!

  • Is there an easy way to use MOVE when importing from card reader?

    In Lightroom 1, I would hit File -> Import From Disk which would allow me to move photos from my card reader to the hard drive.
    In Lightroom 3, the only option is the normal import dialog and in order to get the "Move" option I have to select "other source" and then scroll down the list to select the card reader in order to get the "Move" option.  It's a pain to do it every time.  (not to mention my wife will never do it and just use "copy").
    So my question is, "Is there a way to get the Move option to be available by default on my card reader?"
    It's been my workflow since 2004 to have the images deleted directly after I copy them off the memory card using Adobe software (Photoshop Album 2.0, Photoshop Elements 4, Lightroom 1.0).  I'm really hoping there is an easy way to accomplish this in Lightroom 3. Otherwise I will be pretty disappointed.

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    brianbjork wrote:
    The reason I like the move command so much is that I know when photos are on my memory cards that the are not on my computer.
    LR defaults to not importing suspected duplicates.  so if there are still files on the card, they will be grayed out. That's how you can know.
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    brianbjork wrote:
    What do you all use in your work flow to delete the pictures left on your memory cards after they are copied?
    I have a shell file that removes the files from the card and ejects the disk.  I keep it in my dock for easy access.
    Others will tell yiou, though, to format in camera. Which is a good idea! I just like to keep my cards empty and ready.

  • Is there any easy way to move the cursor in a plot by just a mouse click?

    Right now I have to click at the cursor and drag it to the right position. I was wondering if there is an easy way to just do the mouse click to change the cursor (not dragging the cursor). I have only one cursor in the graph.

    Assuming that if you click the cursor that you want it to always move to the same position, I think that you could do what you want by calling the cursor's SetPosition method in the graph's CursorMouseDown event.

  • Is there an easier way to strip the video to leave just the audio in a clip?

    A friend asked me how to remove the video so as just to leave the audio in a clip.
    She said she had tried detaching and expanding the video, but even though she selected just the video, whenever she hit the delete/backspace  key everything disappeared.
    I couldn't find a way of doing it but suggested the old trick of simply exporting the clip as  audio only.
    It seems a bit convoluted so is there a quicker way?

    I have just realised that this is not quite the solution I thought it was.
    The gap is almost like an invisible clip which prevents anything being added to the timeline above the audio.
    Yes, you can attach another clip above the timeline but it's not exactly elegant.
    It appears that the only way to get rid of the video to leave an uncompromised audio clip is to Share>Audio Only and re-import.

  • Interactive report - Is there an easy way to expand the width of a column to allow for more data on a line.

    Example.
    One of the columns in my interactive report is labelled Notes.
    The data in the column looks like
    I really
    enjoy
    typing up
    notes,
    please
    disregard
    Is there any way to get this note all on one line - or atleast expand the width to increase or decrease the number of characters per line.
    So either
    I really enjoy typing up notes, please disregard
    Or
    I really enjoy typing up notes,
    please disregard
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Mikez,
    You can also consider to render your "Notes"-column as a textarea, eg:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:23:
    For the text area you can define the default number of rows and column width you want. You render a column as text area with an apex_item function:
    select apex_item.textarea(3,NOTES,1,80) from MY_TABLE
    Where 3 is the index number that you want your NOTES colum to have and 1 and 80 stand for row and column width respectively. When you use apex_item for a column, make sure to set that column as "Standard Report Column" under "Report Attributes".
    More info on apex_item:

  • Is there an easy way to use Dreamweaver?

    I started my website 7 years ago in FrontPage and just purchased Dreamweaver thinking; in today's technological world aimed at 12 year olds, this has got to be easier than FrontPage or at least I'd have a head start since I created and have maintained my own 10-page website.   Wow, was I ever wrong, Dreamweaver is strictly for people with computer degrees and only speak html.   I'm told I have to html every dot, space, sentencing space, centering, etc.  I paid $699 for the program, paid $250 to a web designer to just get my website into DW then teach me how to maintain it (got nothing), found another web designer, paid a $100 deposit, she "redesigned" my home page, told her that wasn't what I wanted (after explaining what I did want), never heard from her again.  Just talked with a recent computer designer graduate, he wants $450 to get my website into DW and put in new navigation buttons.    I know html, here's the site I created with NO training, just studying and learning FrontPage: www.nilesbottlestoppers.com      
    Some one, PLEASE, give me some words of encouragement because, right now I'm crying (literally).
    Thanks,
    Ruth

    DW is pro-level software aimed at professional web designers/developers who are comfortable working with HTML, CSS and JavaScript code.  It's a powerful tool and there isn't much you can't build in DW providing you have the necessary skills to use it.
    On the other hand, Adobe Muse is consumer level software aimed at designers, hobbyists and non-coders.  The price you pay for all that ease of use, however, is limited features and code that needs to be maintained in MU.   It might be all you need for now.  Then again, if you want to add advanced features to your site later, you may be forced to switch away from MU which might be a worse place than you are right now.   I don't know.
    Suffice it to say, a lot has changed in web standards and technology since FP was retired in 2007.  Designs & layouts must cater to an ever growing list of new web devices ranging from smartphones and tablets to desktops and flat screen TV screens.  
    I don't know what your budget is.  But for a small business web site, you really should contract with an experienced web developer (get references) who can re-build your site within a prescribed time frame to include a simple CMS (content management system) which you can use to edit the site yourself. 
    DW won't be much help to you unless you learn to work with code.   Code is not hard to learn.  No computer or science degrees required.  Just a few focussed hours and a little effort on your part will get you started on the path to success.

  • Is there an easy way to adjust the touch screen on an Image Class MF7480?

    When we try to hit the System Monitor button, the Special Features button activates. It used to be that if you put your fingernail on the very bottom of the screen, you could activate the System Monitor button. It's a great printer, but this is frustrating.

    Hi Brooks!
    It sounds like cleaning the touch panel might resolve the issue. Try powering the MF7480 off and cleaning it with a clean, dry, soft cloth.  Be sure to get around the edges of the System Monitor button.  If the Special Features button still activates, the MF7480 will likely require service.  Call us at 1-800-OK CANON (652-2666), Monday - Friday, 8 AM to 8PM ET.  We can give you some service options from there.

  • Is there an easy way to locate the cursor on a page?

    sometimes I have trouble locating the cursor. It gets lost in the page content.

    You can change the system-wide color of your cursor to something more easily findable (like a large black cursor). [http://www.ehow.com/how_6122649_change-cursor-color-windows-xp.html http://www.ehow.com/how_6122649_change-cursor-color-windows-xp.html].
