Mc - cut & paste file or folder in the same panel (left or right)

Ah, now I see. I haven't used MC in a while - I'm not sure if there is any easy way to do that. You could write your own script(s) and bind keys to them. But this would require a buffer to store the "cut" directory. I'm not sure MC has such a buffer.
You may want to check out Vifm or Ranger. Ranger is quite popular in the arch community, but personally I prefer Vifm. Vifm is very similar to MC, but *much* more flexible and powerful. (Ranger is also very flexible and powerful - but a different style as it isn't a two-pane style manager).

New user...how do you drag or move or copy a file or folder from the desktop to an external drive? I have tried dragging and copy/pasting.

new user...how do you drag or move or copy a file or folder from the desktop to an external drive? I have tried dragging and copy/pasting.

My guess the problem you are running into is the drive is formatted for a PC as NTFS. OS X can read files from NTFS however it cannot write to it. Check the formatting on the drive, if it's NTFS then it should be reformatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), you can use Disk Utility to do this.
If you still have a PC and want to share the EHD with the PC and Mac please read MacWorld's Share an external drive between a Mac and a PC article.

[SOLVED]Cannot copy/cut/paste files in Konqueror

Hi all, I am using KDE4.1.2 (official version). My konqueror cannot copy/cut/paste files in 'file manager' mode, the copy/cut/paste items in the right click menu are always faded out, and C-x/C-c/C-v hotkeys do not work either. However, it can read/write/rename/delete files normally. In fact, 'Move to' and 'Copy to' menu works too. Meanwhile, dolphin does not have this problem. I am a little confused.:mad:

Hello,
I'm using kdemod, konqueror 4.1.4 in i686, and the paste is always greyed out (same happens with the button in the taskbar). The "copy" action seems to be enabled through ctrl-c and the right-click, but there is no way to say, because no paste can be done. Deleting files works, so it does not seem to be related to permissions.
Regarding the post
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57749
I installed konq-plugins, but it did not help. The paste is also greyed out in dolphin.
I wonder if anyone is having this same issue? I thought this was solved in 4.1.3
Thanks!

Is the media files in question in the iTunes library or elsewhere on the computer?

In iMovie 11, how can you cut/paste a clip that has subtitles and actually have the subtitles get cut/pasted. When I try, the subtitles disappear into the void and I have to do the subtitling all over again.

When saving files under options the file name is duplicated how to remove extra folder with the same name

Under Firefox Options I clicked Saving Files under Downloads but the file name appears twice and an extra folder with the same name is created within the folder i.e.:
G:\Akbar's Songs\HAMARA FORUMS DOWNLOADS\HAMARA FORUMS DOWNLOADS
As you can see the folder is repeated, how can I correct this?
Also the music files I download from a site downloads as WinRar file and I need to open it. Is there an option where the files open automatically in the folder I have selected?
Many thanks for your help.

The "beta" version is for testing and may be more prone to problems, so I suggest trying the regular version (9.20) even though it hasn't been updated since 2010.

Each time I reopen a folder the files get rearranged alphabetically, how do I stop this so the file arrangement in the folder stays the same?

Each time I reopen a folder in OS X 10.8.4 the files get rearranged alphabetically, how do I stop this so the file arrangement in the folder stays the same?

I might add that all the files are aliases. There are 40 altogether and I am aware I could create 10 sub-folders so I only have 4 aliases in each subfolder which would mean I only have to rearrange 4 aliases each time but this is still not ideal. I have been using Macs since the 1980's and up to now files have always stayed where you put them unless you selected Arrange By in the Finder View Menu.

Mail app: copy and past in draft folder kills the mail app every time

Create an email and save it (instead of sending it), the go to the draft folder, copy that draft (command,c) and try to paste it (command v) to create multiple versions of that email and the mail app dies every time. I do this to create multiple copies for mass emails which brings me to problem 2, the Mail app cannot send to multiple email addresses.

This has been really bothering me. I came up with this solution and have tested it. I hope it works for you too.
Create your first e-mail
Save it to your Drafts folder, in the usual way (in whichever account you're going to send from)
Left-drag this e-mail FROM your drafts folder on to your DESKTOP
Double click the icon it makes
When it opens, from the Mail.app menu bar click Message > Copy to > click on the Drafts folder you want your e-mail to be saved in
The e-mail that you double clicked from the desktop should still be open
Now use this key-combination alt-⌘-T and you'll copy another version of the same draft e-mail to your drafts folder
Repeat the key-combination for as many versions of the e-mail you need - you can work at some speed, it keeps up - no crashes. They will all go to your Drafts folder in the same way the Copy/Paste feature used to work
Once you have as many copies in there as you need, double click each one from your drafts folder, add the recipient address and any customisation and SEND!
This problem appears in quite a few threads on the Apple forum, so I will cross post.
I've not seen this solution anywhere else, or anything similar.
I'm happy for you to share this, once you've tested it, and you can follow on http://twitter.com/philipchapman
GOOD LUCK!

How do I share files between users on the same machine?

I tried using /Users/shared to share files between myself (Admin user) and another user on the machine (Standard user). Whenever I put a file or a folder into said directory permissions are 755 for directories and 644 for files, my umask is 0022. The files and directories belong to my user and the group staff. This means I can read and write and others can read. If I do the same using the other users account. Permissions are 700 and 600 respectively. (Owner is the other user and group is staff.) Strangely the other users umask is 0022, too.
The result is, that all directories and files I create with my account (Admin user) are readable to every other user on the machine, whereas all directories and files the other user (Standard user) creates are not readable for anyone else. I can easily rectify this using the Terminal and chmod and/or chown, but it is a pain having to do this, since I also need to forcefully restart the Finder App for it to notice the changed permissions.
Ideally I'd like all directories in /Users/Shared to have permissions 777 and all files 666 no matter which user created, copied or moved them to said location. I think this could possibly be done using applescript and shellscripting and the folder action hook. So far my attempts to find such a script on the net or/and write it myself have failed. I'd be grateful for any hints how I:
a) write and setup such a script
b) accomplish what I try to do (share files and folders on the same machine) in another possibly more Mac way
Kind regards
David

The following AppleScript will recursively descend the directory tree and change the items to your modes:
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px; height: 340px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFDDFF;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
repeat with some_item in these_items
ProcessStuff from some_item
end repeat
end adding folder items to
to ProcessStuff from SomeItem
processes items contained in SomeItem, recursively descending the directory tree
parameters - SomeItem [mixed]: an item containing the items to process
returns nothing
set SomeItem to SomeItem as text
set FileInfo to (info for SomeItem as alias)
if (folder of FileInfo) and not (package folder of FileInfo) then -- a folder (not a package)
do shell script "chmod 666 " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem
-- do shell script "chown root:staff " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem user name "me" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges
try -- to get items in the folder
tell application "Finder" to set SubFolder to (items of folder SomeItem)
on error
return {}
end try
repeat with SubItem in SubFolder -- process the sub items
ProcessStuff from SubItem
end repeat
else -- a file
do shell script "chmod 777 " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem
-- do shell script "chown root:staff " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem user name "me" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges
end if
return
end ProcessStuff
</pre>
You shouldn't need to change the ownership, so I commented out the chown shell script since this would need to be run as a super user. You can run a shell script with administrator privileges, but in order to be used by a standard user you will need to provide the appropriate user name and password in the script, which might not be a good idea - note that the folder action script will need to be attached in all accounts that you want to change the permissions, which means that it would need to be accessible to those accounts.

"Open each folder in the same window" not working

hey guys, just today, I noticed that whenever i double click a folder, it opens in a new window. I went to folder properties, and made sure I checked "Open each folder in the same window," and its checked. I tried switching it on, then off, then restoring all defaults in both those settings and the view settings, and I've tried restarting the computer, even using a system restore point. No Matter what, whenever I double click a window, it opens in a new window, but if I use the navigation pane, or if I highlight a window and click the open button at the top left, it opens in the same window. This is very very very annoying, because just navigating my harddrive, I might end up with 20 windows open to reach just 1 file.
Does anyone know what's wrong? or how I can fix this?

I was experiencing this same issue on my laptop and spent several frustrating hours of searching in vain for a solution. I tried most of the same fixes mentioned here with no success (re-registering DLL's, running the system file checker [sfc /scannow],
turning off the navigation pane, performing virus scans, etc). After almost giving up, I discovered that I only experienced this behavior when I accessed Explorer from the shortcut which was pinned to my taskbar. When I opened the "Computer" shortcut
on my desktop, I was able to open individual folders without having new windows open each time. I suspect that this is related to the new design/function of the taskbar in Windows 7. To get the results I wanted, I opted to revert to the "classic" style
taskbar seen in Windows Vista (AKA the "Quicklaunch" toolbar) by following the instructions here:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-7/add-the-quick-launch-bar-to-the-taskbar-in-windows-7/
Then, I simply added a new shortcut to "Computer" in the new Quicklaunch toolbar and, "Voila!" - problem solved. Oddly enough, I don't experience the same behavior on my desktop PC which is also running Windows 7. Ain't Microshaft grand?!? (a-hem)

I'm fed up with buying albums on i tunes with tracks cut. Did you ever experience the same?

i'm fed up with buying on i tunes albums with cut tracks. did you ever experience the same? and stop buying at Apple's?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

Can I apply a Rights Management policy to multiple documents in a folder at the same time using Adobe Acrobat Pro?

How can I apply a single Rights Management Policy to multiple documents in a folder at the same time instead of applying it to each document individually?

I don't know of a method with Acrobat, why not set up a watch folder and just drop all the files in that folder to have rights applied. You might want to look at the workbench help if you've not done this before.

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
