Midi Trim (Delete all except selected) Command?

Does this exist?
Midi Trim (Delete all except selected) Command?
For instance: I have a simple triad chord progression and I only want the 3rd note of the triad (the middle note) of each chord. So I select the 3rd of the triad of each chord and now I want to "Delete all except selected".
Been doing it the old fashion way for way too long. I'm working in Logic X and 9. Thank you.

The best way I find to do this is to select the note/s, right click, select invert selection then delete.
( Key command for this is: shift + I )

[SOLVED] Simple Bash, delete all except

Really annoying me, though simple.
Say I have a directory, foo. I also have an array of paths of files AND folders under 'foo' that I want to keep -- but I want to delete everything else. The kept files should retain their permissions and such.
Is there a simple way? I've dug through 'find', maybe I missed something... will check again tomorrow.
Thanks.

I can never remember regular expressions, but I'm sure theres a way to format it to pull out any matches.
edit: Also just found an option for ls in the manpage, --ignore=PATTERN that might be good to look into
That would be horrible for file names with spaces in, might be a good idea to use xargs instead.
ls --ignore=PATTERN foo/parent | xargs rm -rf
I do however recommend checking that code before running it, I'd hate to think you'd delete something you want.
Very true! didn't think about that. Have never heard of xargs, but looking at the man page looks like it will run into the same problem
Because Unix filenames can contain blanks and newlines, this default
behaviour is often problematic; filenames containing blanks and/or new‐
lines are incorrectly processed by xargs. In these situations it is
better to use the -0 option, which prevents such problems.
but, -0 expects null terminated items, so I think ls needs to be changed too, but can't find any null terminated options for ls. How about this?
ls -1 --ignore=PATTERN foo/parent | xargs -d '\n' rm -r
Not sure how many files have newlines in their name.

CALC ALL EXCEPT MBR problems

Is there an issue with the CALC ALL EXCEPT MBR command with certain members?I load data to members tagged with a UDA as "Direct Load" which should not be consolidated. The member that is being consolidated has an alias of "SSS" (it is in the accounts dimension and 0 level). I need to load data for each quarter in a year as well as the year itself. But when the calc script runs it overwrites the year member. I have tried the following but they do not work:CALC ALL EXCEPT MBR("SSS"); Result: SSS is still consolidated across the time dimension.CALC ALL EXCEPT MBR(@UDA("Accounts","Direct Load")); Result: Error message: "Invalid Calc Script syntax [CALC ALL EXCEPT MBR(@UDA]"Any ideas? We have Essbase Version 5.0.2 Patch 14. What else can be done to keep my direct loads from adding up across time?

The EXCEPT MBR command excludes any Headcount calculations. It does NOT exclude other calculations such as dimension consolidation.If your Headcount member has a formula, Essbase will not calculate the formula. But it will take the existing values and consolidate them across the other dimensions.You probably have a situation where you do NOT have a formula on Headcount. If that is the case, then you want a calc script similar to this one:calc dim (XYZ);fix (@remove (@idescendants (XYZ), Headcount))calc all except dim (XYZ);endfixWhere XYZ is the dimension that contains the Headcount member.

Delete all users except one?

hi there,
I'm in a lab environment where I need to be able to delete all user accounts except "Administrator" on remote machines from ARD that accumulate from unsuccessful syncs, etc.
Is it possible to run a selective rm -rf command that will do this? I've googled, but the solutions don't seem to work for me.
Thanks!

I found this article: http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/3908
It says to use this command:
find . ! -name "*.ogg" -exec rm -f {} \;
Adapted for my purposes:
find . ! -name "administrator" -exec rm -rf {} \;
I tried this on a folder called "test" on my local machine with folders named 1, 2, and 3 (keeping 2) and it worked, but I want to make sure this is a good idea before I push it out via ARD to 90 workstations. Thanks!

How to delete all songs in itunes except purchased

i want to delete all the songs in my itunes but i want to keep my purchased ones

52,
Try command clicking a song and it should select all in songs or a playlist.

How can I delete a file? At the moment I delete each pic and it takes ages! I tried select all and managed to delete all my 2300 photos!! I've got them back but I've also got back 980 which I had already deleted 1 by 1 over the past 6 months! Help!

Please help! How can I delete a file without deleting all my photos? I have just managed to delete all my more than 2000 photographs by choosing' Select all' and then delete. But I thought only 'all' the photographs in the file I had open would be selected! I have got them back, but I've also got back more than 800 others that I'd deleted SINGLY over the last 6 months! HELP!

Put a Photo in the iPhoto Trash.
iPhoto Menu -> Empty Trash
This removes the photo from iPhoto and the Hard Disk (in every version of iPhoto except iPhoto11)
In iPhoto 11 the file goes to the System Trash, you need to empty that too.

Delete all rows except 10 random rows

Hi,
how can I delete all rows from table JOBS except 10 random rows?
Someone asked it before (not here..): http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10820105/t-sql-delete-except-top-1
but I didn't understand the answer, and I don't think it will work in PL/SQL.
If the answer in StackOverflow does works in PL/SQL, I will glad if someone explains me with better example,
If the answer in StackOverflow does'nt work in PL/SQL, I will glad if someone gives me an example.

Actually I found a problem in this solution.
delete from jobs where rowid not in (select rowid from jobs where rownum<=10) ;I used the above code to delete all rows except 10 in JOB_HISTORY table, but for some reason the rows that were chosen were only in the range in which (144<=EMPLOYEE_ID<=146).
I tried this several times and always i stayed with rows in this range.
Here are the queries:
SQL> select employee_id from job_history;
EMPLOYEE_ID
144

Delete command is not deleting all rows

Hi All,
Database version 10.2.0.2
Delete command is not deleting all rows and deleting some subset of rows which it should delete, ever time I delete and do the roll back, next time it will delete some random rows, count is different everytime with in the range but not complete in anyway. see the following -
select count(*) from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
COUNT(*)
27105
delete from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
16045 rows deleted.
select count(*) from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
11060
rollback;
Againg the same procedure -
select count(*) from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
COUNT(*)
27105
delete from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
14320 rows deleted.
select count(*) from test where evt_id in (select evt_id from test1);
COUNT(*)
12785
why its not deleting all the 27k rows in one shot? Is there any bug related to that?
Thanks
Abhinav

Odd that what looked like identical statements produced different results, both the counts and the deletes. The most likely cause of that is your data is changing - as Fahd suggested perhaps a simultaneous load taking place.
The delete issue is probably not due to a bug. Possible but unlikely.
If any evt_id values are NULL they won't be deleted with the subquery - a NULL in test.evt_id will never match a NULL in test1.evt_id.
Have you tried alternative subqueries - a correlated EXISTS subquery for instance?

HT201323 Delete all music in iTunes Match except Purchased items

How can I delete all of my uploaded music in iTunes Match (cloud) EXCEPT for my iTunes purchased music?

HI
Make a smart playlist based on iCloud status not purchased. Select all tracks in list (cmd + A) then delete tracks (option + delete). As tracks have already been deleted from your hard drive, you will not get message to keep or move files to trash but you will get message telling you that the tracks will be moved from the cloud and will no longer be available in the cloud.
Doing this will clear iTunes match. Do you have a back up of your music on an external drive?

"Delete All Backups" command not working...

I just started using Time Machine for the first time about a month ago with my new MacBook Pro. Recently, it started notifying me that it was out of space and automatically deleting the oldest backups, which I thought was odd, because my external Time Machine backup partition is 500GB and my startup disk only had 150GB of data (on a 260GB partition). Well, after checking the backups I quickly found the problem. I have three partitions on my internal drive, and Time Machine was backing them all up (I had thought Time Machine would only back up my startup disk). So I added the other two partitions to the "disks to Exclude list". That part worked and my new backups only include my startup drive. But I want to get rid of the all the backups of my other partitions, so I opened up Time Machine and tried to manually delete their backups, but it's not working.
I've read that you can select the volumes/folders and choose the "Delete all backups of ..." option to remove them. I also read that it should take some time to complete this. But it's been over 24 hours and still it hasn't removed any of the backups I want to get rid of. And there seems to be no activity on the Time Machine drive. So what gives? Why isn't Time Machine honoring my request to delete all backups of these partitions/folders? I've repeated the process a few times, and each time the authentication dialog appears and my password is accepted, so everything looks like it should work, but it hasn't.
My first thought was that maybe Time Machine won't delete the backup of a folder/partition that it's already excluding. So I turned off automatic Time Machine backups, and removed the two partition volumes from my exclude list and then tried again to delete all their backups. It's been a few hours since then, and still nothing is deleting. How long should it take? And is there some trick to manually deleting the backups outside of Time Machine that I could try?
I guess if nothing else I could try and reformat the Time Machine backup disk and start over, but I shouldn't have to right? This is really puzzling...

Yes, It appears that Time Machine CANNOT delete files that are locked for some reason.
that's not true. it's perfectly capable of doing that.
Originally I assumed that since I could not delete a file directly from within the Time Machine volume's "Backups.backupdb" subfolders, that I would not be able to unlock it. But you can! I simply located the files in the backup, chose Get Info on them and un-checked their "Locked" checkbox.
something is really wrong with your backups. you should not even be able to unlock any locked files in TM backups as they should be all protected by hidden ACLs to prevent people from messing with them from finder.
And the lock status change took effect! Then went back to Time Machine and chose "Delete All Backups of..." and selected the volume in that backup, and they instantly disappeared!!!
That's pretty strong empirical proof that Time Machine has a problem with locked files.
no, it's a strong evidence that your TM backups are messed up.
I have repeated it with about a dozen various files that were locked and all behaved the exact same way. So I think this is pretty strong evidence to a "bug" in Time Machine!

When is there going to be a select all/delete all option in email? I need to search for certain emails and delet them from my phone but not my email program (Outlook)

when will there be a select all/delete all option in Emails? I have a large number of emails that come to my phone which i dont want to delete from my outlook mail account (On my PC). However, i want to be able to search, select all and delete these emails from my phone? I do not use ICloud either as it causes issues with my calendars at work.
These features should be a standard as there are plenty of other users out there that are trying to do the same thing and as yet there has been no progress? The email on the iphone is one of the biggest downfalls of the phone, blackberry and android handle them much better, but i dont have an option with my phone at work. Please help??

No one here would have any idea when or if such a feature would be introduced until and unless Apple announces it.
