Move file from one folder to another

the instructions in Lightroom say:
i(Optional) If youre not moving photos to an existing folder, create a
i new folder.
i Select a folder in the Folders panel.
i In the Grid view, select the photos you want to move.
i Drag the photos to a folder in the Folders panel.
i The actual photos are physically moved to a different folder on the
i hard drive.
Unfortunately I have tried to do this, but it doesn't work. When I try and drag the photo it doesn't move. Anyone have a clue how to do this?

Yeah that screwed me up too, I kept dragging by the borders and it didnt work =)

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.

Hello,
Do you know what the difference between copying a file this way :
** Fast & simple file copy. */
public static void copy(File source, File dest) throws IOException {
FileChannel in = null, out = null;
try {
in = new FileInputStream(source).getChannel();
out = new FileOutputStream(dest).getChannel();
long size = in.size();
MappedByteBuffer buf = in.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, size);
out.write(buf);
} finally {
if (in != null) in.close();
if (out != null) out.close();
================SECOND WAY============
AND THIS WAY:
// Move file (src) to File/directory dest.
public static synchronized void move(File src, File dest) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
copy(src, dest);
src.delete();
// Copy file (src) to File/directory dest.
public static synchronized void copy(File src, File dest) throws IOException {
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(src);
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(dest);
// Transfer bytes from in to out
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int len;
while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
out.write(buf, 0, len);
in.close();
out.close();
And which is better? I read up on what each kind of does but still a bit unclear as to when it is good to use which.
Thanks in advance,

Move files from one folder to another javascript?

I am running a 3-action droplet automatically using windows task scheduler. Here are the 3 steps:
1.    Batch file to move files from hot folder to processing folder
2.    Run IPP (dr brown's image processor pro) using preloaded settings to make several sizes copies of the files.
3.    Bat file to move the files from processing folder to archive folder.
The problem I am observing is that Step 1 works and IPP begins to run. It only processes the first few images, and then moves on to the 3rd step where the bat file is ran to move all files from processing folder to archive folder.   The trouble is, only a few images were processes (about 10 or so), yet all of the images get moved to the archive without being processed. Is there a way to make sure that step 2 (IPP) doesn’t begin until all files have successfully been moved from the hot folder to the processing folder? IPP starts right away and files are still being transferred to the processing folder.
Does anyone have a script that will move files from one folder to another?

I'm sure I have see a way to close down Photoshop in a Photoshop script. I never had the need to. It may be a simple statement like app.close(); I don't know javascript and only hack Photoshop script mostly by looking at others code. app.close(); is a guess on my part. Let me try it. I was wrong its photoshop.quit();
So make your MoveToArchive.jsx look something like this
try{
   var BAT = new File(Folder.temp + "/MoveFilesToArchive.bat");
   BAT.open("w");
   BAT.writeln('Copy /Y "c:\\Process\\*.jpg" "c:\\Archive\\*.*"');
   BAT.writeln('Del "c:\Process\\*.jpg"');
   BAT.close();
   BAT.execute();   // execute the temp bat file
}catch(e){
alert("Bat MoveFilesToArchive failed to execute.");
photoshop.quit();

Why can't i move files from one folder to another by sliding them?

Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

Move files from one folder to another

I am brand new to the application and have spent a ton of time googling various topics, but need some additional help. Seems easy enough, but I can't figure out how to do it...
I would like to move pics from one folder to another. I can drag files from one folder to another, but they still reside in the original folder as well. Is there a way to cut and paste or a similar function to accomplish this move?
Thanks.

Hey, HawaiianHaole, as a multidecade Mac user, let me tell you, Aperture is about the worst example of Mac-iness one could imagine. Ironic, as it's (of course) made by Apple. But it is so inflexible, and insists so vociferously on making the user learn its peculiar interface conventions it reminds me most of something out of that famous company in Redmond.
Want your Projects in an order you choose? Sorry! Want to arrange your windows so you can see your list of chat buddies while you're working in Aperture? Nope, can't do it! Aging eyes have trouble reading tiny grey type on a grey background? Hey buddy, it was your choice to grow old, don't blame us!
But all is not lost. Aperture has gotten considerably better of late (versions up to 2.0 were fundamentally unusable in many ways) and will hopefully continue to improve. (ie Maybe they'll fix the printing thing...)
Please don't make Aperture the basis for your judgement of the Mac OS. Many long time Mac users are having as much trouble with Aperture as you. Mac OSX has significantly reduced customizability but at the benefit of much improved stability and indeed usability. Old school Mac users had to learn to accept this, which most did. You'll hear people talk about the "Way of the Steve". As irksome as Aperture can be, you'll actually have a better time of it if you adopt the Way of the Steve, and accept that you can't do things the way you might want to. This is imho antithetical to the original Mac many of us knew and loved, but it's the way things are today, so we mostly shut up and take it. You can fight with your software all day, or just accept that there are ways you have to adopt and adapt to them.
Welcome to the Bright Side, hope your Mac experience improves.

I suddenly can't move files from one folder to another in my FlashHelp project.

I have RH8 (8.02). I have been working on this project for a couple of years now.
What changed? I had imported a Word document and then removed the document and the folder it created from the Project Manager. Now I cannot move any of my files from one folder to another in the Project Manager pod. I susptected a corrupt CPD file so I closed the project, deleted the CPD file. Next I opened Robo from Programes (I never open from the .xpj file), went to Tools>Options and deleted the pinned most recently used project. Select Open, and locate/open the xpj file. I've also re-generated the output (no errors) and completed all these steps again. Of course Robo only goes haywire on me right before I have to publish for our new software release.

Hi there
From what I'm seeing my own guess here is that RoboHelp is still believing that the content belongs to word.
I might suggest the following steps.
Open Winows Explorer and make copies of the HTML files involved. Then from RoboHelp, delete or remove the content. Then use the Import function to add the desired HTML files back into the project into the desired folder.
My thought is that by taking these steps you will have effectively disassociated Word and the topics should now be independent topics that RoboHelp should allow you to manage as you wish.
Hope you get it sorted... Rick

Can't move files from one volume to another

Using the 1.2 client on SLED, I don't appear to be able to move files from
one volume to another. I have two drive "mappings", each to a
different volume on a NW65SP5 box, but when I try and cut and paste files
I get an error saying "Not on the same file system". However if I drop to
a terminal and just use mv, that works.
Is this a known issue?

Hmm, yep get the smae problem when trying to move files.
Copy works just great though.
I know there are some issues in Gnome/Nautilus that's being worked upon.
These are outlined in the Readme. For example it's not possible to copy a
folder from Server A to Server B, then delete the folder form Server A.
Finally later on copy the folder back to Server A from Server B.
Also Gnome is leaking file handles, which could be the cause for the
problem we're getting here.
I'll ask my contact at Novell about this and have him enter it in as a bug
if it's not a known issue.
For a workaround you already have a good alternative of using mv in a
terminal.

Moving files from one folder to another caused freeze

I now have a list of files stuck in the center of my screen.
I'm sure a reboot will fix this (I hope!) but I thought it was a bug worth reporting.
All I did was move a copy a collection of files from one folder to another folder. It made the "move" sound, and the files have been copied, but something clearly went wrong

Have java.io.File objects pointing to the three folders. Get the list of all the files in the folder. Start a loop and check if the filename ends with Data.dat. If it is so then copy file to the final folder.
To Copy file you can use any of the two approaches.
1. You can read that file as byte stream (java.io.FileInputStream) and write it to the other folder as bytes (java.io.FileOutputStream).
2. You can use shell commands to do this. (java.lang.Runtime.exe() method)

Can I move files from one caralog to another?

Can I move files from one caralog to another?

No. you cannot.
This, among many other reasons, is why multiple catalogs are not recommended.
(You could import the photo into another catalog, and delete from the first catalog ... and without first using the command File->Write Tags, you will lose your tags, captions and other metdata; version sets, stacks, album/collection membership are lost in any case)

Is there a way to automatically move mail from one folder to another?

Is there a way to periodically, automatically, move mail from one folder to another?
For example, I'd like to move mail from one of my IMAP/Archives folders to my MyMac/Archive folder and I'd like this to happen without intervention.
Can this be done?

I'll try to be more specific.
When I'm done with an email, I archive it.
Because I have multiple email accounts, this results in emails in multiple Archive folders (one per account).
I'd like to have these automatically all moved into one (on my Mac).

Ssis - move files from one directory to another and rename destination file if present

Hello,
How is it possible to move files from one directory to another directory and if the file already exists in destination directory then rename it?
Thanks

1. Use a foreach loop with file enumerator pointing to first directory.
Inside loop have a ssis variable of type string to get filename (@[User::FileName])
Choose option as Fully Qualified in loop
2. Add another variable called @[User::DestFileName], set EvaluateAsExpression true for it and set expression like this
REPLACE(@[User::FileName],<source directory path>,<destination directory path>)
put actual paths in above expression in your case
and another variable called @[User::RenameFileName], set EvaluateAsExpression true for it and set expression like this
REPLACE(@[User::FileName],".","_old.")
3. Create a boolean variable say @[User::FileEXists]
4. Add a Script Task inside the loop and pass @DestFileName variable in ReadOnly mode and FileExists in ReadWrite mode
Inside Script Task write code as per below
http://blog.dbandbi.com/2013/11/13/check-file-exists-ssis/
5. Add File System Task choose operation as Rename File, Select IsSourcePathVariable as true and select @[user::DestFileName] variable and IsDestinationPath variable as true and select @[user::RenameFileName] variable
6. Choose ExpressionAndConstraint option for precedeence constraint from ScriptTask to above File System Task and choose constraint as OnSuccess and expression as
@FileExists == True
7. Add another File System task with operation as Move File Select IsSourcePathVariable as true and select @[user::FileName] variable and IsDestinationPath variable as true and select @[user::DestFileName] variable. Join Script Task as well as
File System Task above to this task and choose constraint as OnSuccess and Multiple Constraint option as Or (dotted line)
Then once executed it will work as per your requirement
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs
