Items from multiple folders into one?

Any programs that can move thing's out of multiple folders into one?
I'm thinking in particular iPhoto, roll folders with images inside, want to move them all out and into one folder. I would rather not go through each one and move manually as could take a while, especially if there are say hundreds of folders each with photos inside i want to move into one.
Must be a program or something that will do it?

I find one:

I've never tested it and it has no reviews. Proceed at your own risk.
EDIT: Make that three!

Import 800K photos (many duplicates) into Aperture from multiple folders in one hard drive.

I have a hard drive with 800,000+ photos in it, many are duplicates after I have made multiple back-ups to different drives over the years and then transferred all the photos to this new drive. The photos are located in different folders but are all in the same hard-drive. How do a import the photos in the easiest/fastest way? How will they get sorted, by date? Is there anyway that I could delete the duplicates without losing photos? I have many photos with the same file name (but from different cameras), tumbnails, edited photos etc.
Very thankful for your assistance!

Hi,
You can import photos from multiple folders.
Just click File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files and Folders
Now select the folders you want to import photos from (they should be at same level in the directory, say all folders in My Pictures) using Ctrl+Click, tick the checkbox for 'Get Photos from subfolders' if not already checked and then click 'Get Media'.
Hope that will help
Thanks

Combine CSV columns from multiple sources into one

Hi,
I am trying to import column from one CSV file and output it into additional columns on a Get-MailboxStatistics | Export-CSV command. The issue with the script I have created is that when use an Expression to create the new column it outputs all of the items
in the column from the import CSV into one row. See script below, I have highlighted the expressions that are not working.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
[Array]$Global:NotesMailSizeMaster = (Import-Csv c:\usermigration.csv).MailSizeMaster
[Array]$Global:NotesMailSizeRefresh = (Import-Csv c:\usermigration.csv).MailSizeRefresh
[Array]$Global:UserAlias = (Import-Csv c:\usermigration.csv).Alias
if (!(Get-PSSnapin |
Where-Object { $_.name -eq "Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.Admin" }))
ADD-PSSnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.Admin
$Output = ForEach ($Alias in $UserAlias)
{ Get-MailboxStatistics $Alias | select-object DisplayName, ServerName, StorageGroupName, Database, @{ Name = "TotalItemSize"; expression = { $_.TotalItemSize.Value.ToMB() } },
@{ Name = "NotesMailSize(PreRefresh)"; expression = { $NotesMailSizeMaster } }, @{
Name = "NotesMailSize(PostRefresh)"; expression = { $NotesMailSizeRefresh }
$filename = (Get-Date).ToString("yyyyMMdd")
$Output | export-csv -Path c:\"$filename-mailboxstats.csv" -NoTypeInformation

There's a lot wrong with this script:
1. You're importing the same file 3x; you should import one and reference the things you need out of it.
2. If the CSV has more than one row in it, your .notation you're using to access the MailSizeMaster, MailSizeRefresh, and Alias properties is used incorrectly. If you are trying to reference each of those properties from an array of different entries,
the proper way would be:
$Import = @(Import-Csv C:\usermigration.csv)
$MailSizeMaster = $Import | Select-Object MailSizeMaster
OR
$MailSizeMaster = $Import | Select-Object -Expand MailSizeMaster
...the "OR" is not PowerShell.
3. I don't know if you can concatenate different objects with the select-object cmdlet like you are. However, what you could do is create a custom object to load the values into and then output that object:
$filename = (Get-Date).ToString("yyyyMMdd")
foreach ($item in $Import) {
$MS = Get-MailboxStatistics $item.Alias
New-Object PSObject -Property @{
'DisplayName' = $MS.DisplayName
'ServerName' = $MS.ServerName
'StorageGroupName' = $MS.StorageGroup
'Database' = $MS.Database
'NotesMailSizePre' = $item.MailSizeMaster
'NotesMailSizePost' = $item.MailSizeRefresh
} | Select-Object DisplayName,ServerName,StorageGroupName,Database,NotesMailSizePre,NotesMailSizePost | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation "C:\$($filename)-mailboxstats.csv"

Selecting from multiple tables, into one internal table

Hi,
What is the best & most efficient method of selecting from multiple table (in my case 6,) into one internal table?
Thanks,
John
Points will be rewarded and all responses will be highly appreciated.

I have simple example :
First one - Join 5 tables
data : f1 type i,
          f2 type i,
          f3 type i.
start-of-selection.
get run time field f1.
write the query 4 or 5 tables join.
get run time field f2.
f3 = f2 - f1 ( Total time).
Second one - joins 3 table and use for all entries
data : f1 type i,
          f2 type i,
          f3 type i.
start-of-selection.
get run time field f1.
write the query 3 tables join and use for all entries
get run time field f2.
f3 = f2 - f1. ( Total time )
Finally you can have time diffrence between the both sql statement.

Archive multiple folders into one zip (Shell/Applescript)

Hi guys,
This is the third place I'm posting this question and I hope it's third time lucky.
How do I zip several folders from different locations into the one archive using the ditto command or Applescript?
Thanks,
Kuzey
Mac OS X (10.3.9)

This script does what you asked (plain vanilla AppleScript)
set theName to text returned of (display dialog "Enter a name for the new folder to be created, loaded and zipped on the desktop" default answer "ZipFldr" buttons {"Cancel", "Enter"} default button "Enter" with title "Zip Folders")
tell application "Finder" to make folder at desktop with properties {name:theName}
set FldrPath to ((path to desktop) as string) & theName
MoveFolders(theName)
tell application "Finder"
set name of (FldrPath as alias) to name of (FldrPath as alias) & ".zip"
end tell
to MoveFolders(newFolder)
set destination to (path to desktop as string) & newFolder
set More to true
repeat while More is true
set aFolder to (choose folder with prompt string "Choose a folder to be moved and zipped")
tell application "Finder" to move aFolder to destination
display dialog "Do you want to continue?" buttons {"That's All", "Get More Folders"} default button "Get More Folders"
if button returned of result is "That's All" then set More to false
end repeat
end MoveFolders

Merging events from multiple calendars into one calendar

I am using iCal version 2.0.5 on Mac OS 10.4.11.
Right now, there are 3 separate calendars setup in iCal: Personal, Home and Unfiled. What I would like to do is merge all of the events from these calendars into the Personal calendar and then delete the other two calendars (Home and Unfiled). Is there any trick to easily doing this?
Thanks,
Andrew

Andrew,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Before you do anything else, use iCal>File>Back up Database..., and save the backup to your Desktop.
Then use iCal>File>Export... for the Calendars that you want to merge into "Personal", and then delete Home/Unfiled from your CALENDARS sources pane.
Next click on the exported copies on the Desktop and you will be presented with an "Add Events" window which will allow you to choose "Import" into the Personal Calendar.
If everything is working as desired use Back up Database... for the new setup.
;~)

Add Text From Multiple Fields Into One

I'm creating a form in Acrobat 9 that lets you fill in information for four cars. For each of the four cars, there is a text box for Manufacturer, Model, and Year. I have the boxes labeled Manuf1, Mod1, Year1, Manuf2, Mod2, etc.
Then I two other text boxes called Text1 and Text2. In Text1 I want all the manufacturers listed together( example: Ford, Chevy, BMW) and the same thing for the models in Text2. What would be even better would be if in Text1 and Text2 the names could be seperated with "or".
Is there a javascript that can do this and not repeat a name (if, for example, the first two cars were both Ford, the third was BMW and the fourth was Chevy, I want Text1 to display: Ford or BMW or Chevy, not: Ford or Ford or BMW or Chevy)?
Thank you for the help!

The code sample you provided is using AcroForm scripting and will not work in this form. There is another post similar to this one...have a look at this one it might help you out. It is doing the opposite of what you want but the concept of the loop and how each field is addressed inside ofthe loop is what you wil need.

Picking files from multiple folders based on name send to destination folde

Hi,
I want to pick multiple files from multiple folders with one root folder. Based on file name I want to send it to diffirent folders. No need to go for message mapping. Can anyone suggest me.
Thanks & Regards,
Prasad Kotla.

Hi Prasad,
to pick the files from multiple source directory, can use "Advance Selection for Source File" in Sender CC.
If you wand to develop a Scenario without Message mapping, develop a scenario as "Sender as Virtual receiver"
This option is available in Sender agreement, just give the dummy name for Msg Interface and Namespace, Name defined should be same in Rec Agreement.
Develop only: Sende CC, Receiver CC, SA, RA
No need to develop ID and RD as no mapping is involved.
If u want to send the files to different folders of receiver side, just develop the adapter module which changes the directory based on the sender filename.
If the sender and receiver directory is same than check the "adapter specific Msg Attribute" and "directory" checkbox in both the sender and receiver CC. in this case no need to develop Custom module for changing the directory. files will be automatically placed in the path they were picked from sendor directory
appreciate if useful
regards,

Copy text from multiple fields to one field

I would like to copy text from multiple fields into one field. Each of these smaller fields will only be allowed to have one character. The larger field will not be able to be edited.
So far, I have thought of creating a naming heirarchy for these fields. I was going to then call upon the array of the parent and set the value of the parent to equal this array.
var parent = this.getField("everything");
var array = everything.getArray();
var v;
for(parent=0; parent<array.length; parent++)
v = a + " " + v; //Im guessing this line is incorrect
parent.value = a;
Any suggestions? or a better way of doing this.
Thanks

Adding item in multiple folders

Hello,
we are using 3.0.9 portal version content areas. When a item is added, it should be posted or created in two folders. Is it possible? if so Can you explain how?
Thanks
Sha

No - playlists are created within iTunes, the only way to get from somewhere else is to Import them (but not the music).
Music files don't import as playlists - they get arranged into Artist / Album sequence. You can import one folder at a time by creating a playlist first, then drag and drop the folder into it. But not multiple folders into multiple playlists.

SQL Query -How2bring multiple results into one field using Formatted Search

Hi Everyone
i am trying to bring in the results of the field dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT using a formatted search into a row level using the following query:
SELECT     dbo.LOT_ITEM.LOT
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN dbo.LOT_ITEM ON dbo.DLN1.ItemCode = dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM
WHERE     dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM=$[DLN1.ItemCode]
however the result of the dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT field could be more then one value depending on how many lots are assigned for that item
(for example this query would be similar to assigning batch/serial numbers to an item being despatched - as you can choose multiple batches/serials depending on the quantities available and required and then move from the left to the right side of the selection window) if that makes sense!
is it possible to bring in the multiple results into one field? and how can i amend the above query to include this?
Thankyou in advance :o)

Hi Suda
Thanks for replying :o) but im not sure about the query?
just to simplify it (as the query im working with is to do with 3rd party addons) i have used the serial/batchs field instead and used standard demo database fields from SBO 2005 sp01:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode='g1000' and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = '193'
The above brings me the relevant results but when i change it to be used in a formatted search:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode=$[dln1.itemcode] and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = $[dln1.DocEntry]
i cant seem to get it to work - now this may be because the serial number is not allocated until teh record is added to the system, however when this happens i am unable to go back in and manually trigger the query as the delivery note rows cannot be selected!
i think as what im originally wanting an answer for is same as this example, im wanting to know if this is even possible?
Thanks

Import multiple folders in one step

I'm new to PSE and have just installed version 10: is there a way to import multiple folders from my hard disk into Organizer in one step? Selecting each folder and then selecting all the pictures in it is tedious (I have about 50 folders to import into PSE).

Hi,
You can import photos from multiple folders.
Just click File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files and Folders
Now select the folders you want to import photos from (they should be at same level in the directory, say all folders in My Pictures) using Ctrl+Click, tick the checkbox for 'Get Photos from subfolders' if not already checked and then click 'Get Media'.
Hope that will help

How do I turn off automatic bookmark creation when combining multiple PDFs into one?

When I combine multiple PDFs into one, I need Adobe to use the CUSTOM bookmarks I created in the original PDFs. I do NOT want the additional PDF name as a bookmark in this instance. Is there a way to turn this option OFF in Acrobat Professional? I have version 9.

You can not automatically turn off this action nor can you remove the 'file_name.pdf' heading, but you could add a button or menuitem to remove the 'file_name.pdf' from the bookamarks. Yes, it is one more step to perform when combining PDFs, but is you want until you have all of the PDFs combined you only need do it once.
Removing filename bookmarks created by Acrobat by Sean Stewart
From the above article:
"With the release of Acrobat 6 came the ability to create a composite (binder) document from multiple files, (i.e. File > Create PDF > From Multiple Files.) When this is done, Acrobat automatically inserts a new top level bookmark at the start of each new file. The bookmark title will correspond to the source filename of the source file. While this level of separation can be helpful, it is counterproductive when the user wants the bookmark tree in the merged document to be continuous.
"Here's a sample JavaScript to remove the top level bookmarks from the bookmark tree. This script will look for a ".pdf" extension to decide whether to remove the bookmark."
With some additional coding you can add menu item or toolbar button.

How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1. On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi BH,
I see your diagram. I just scanned something. The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram. The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram. I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance. That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
Thanks,
Mark
