Nautilus hiding files with '~'

Hey there!
I tried everything in Nautilus itself, and even activating the gconf key "/desktop/gnome/file-views/show_backup_files", but nothing works, even not after a re-login.
Does anybody have a clue?

Hiding Files with Java

Hi all. I'm trying to hide files (in Windows) using Java. The java.io.File class doesn't seem to have any facilities for changing file attributes in Windows.
The only solutions that occur to me are to use WScript or to use a batch file with attrib. Does anyone know a way to set files to hidden from within the JVM?
Thanks!
Daniel

Finder hiding files with "..." in the file name?

One of my files is named with a "..." at the start, which seems to be hidden in the finder - I can see from the folder size that the file is in there but can't see it. Is there anyway I can change the file name on a hidden file?

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

Hiding files with specific extensions

Being connected to our windows server, I see a bunch of garbage files that are usually hidden when viewed on a windows machine. Is there a way to hide files that contain a specific extension universally in finder?
Thanks!

No. and definitely not on a windows server.

Can't open a file with spaces on the filename.

Lets say I have a file:
/home/orv/Open - Me - Please.txt
When I double click to open that file with any program, the result is something like this:
"Unable to find /home/orv/Open%20-%20Me%20-%20Please.txt"
I'm not sure what to call that process of converting the file name so I've been unable to google it up to find a fix or a way to change the behavior of the file manager.
I've checked the settings in Nautilus and nothings there. Any clues? Thank you!

I tried removing everything in my home directory to erase all settings, still the same problem.
I tried using a different file manager and still the same problem.
Here's another example of my problem and its quirks:
Lets say I have a file called:
/home/orv/I am a Movie.avi
In nautilus or thunar, double-clicking that file so I can play it with Mplayer will give an error:
Failed to open file:///home/orv/I%20am%20a%20Movie.avi
However, when I drag and drop using the file manager into Mplayer, it works.
So my problem is this automatic conversion of whitespaces into the %20 which I don't know how to turn off.

Hiding files of windows partition

Hi Guys,
I've just installed bootcamp on my macbook but i'm getting fed up of searching through all the .ini and other system files in my windows partition when browsing my windows files. It also look quite ugly as well! Does anyone know how to hiding files of a certain type in OS X either natively or with a 3rd party app? (i.e. any file with the extension .ini, .lnk etc). I'm not too keen on fiddling about with terminal mind you.
Many thanks in advance
Rich

You can do just that very thing in System Preferences> Spotlight,
click on the privacy tab, and just put what ever you dont want Finder to search in that area, and you should be good.

Gedit opens an "Unsaved document" on opening files with mouse

when I open files by double-clicking the file with mouse I always get one additional "Unsaved Document X".. which is very annoying, because I have to close tham all, and click "Close without save"... it happens in dolphin, nautilus and krusader.
when I try opening a file from terminal using "gedit filename" that does not happen.
it also does not happen if I open the files from within gedit.
any hints on how to fix this?
thank you

It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Gedit seems to display data from stdin in a new "Unsaved document". For example:
echo "foobar" | gedit
To break the pipe opened by krusader, i replaced the command 'gedit %U' in krusader with this script:
#!/bin/bash
gedit $1 < /dev/null
man, you're a genius. thank you so much! :)
ps. perhaps a more global solution is right clicking Kmenu button -> edit applications -> find gedit there -> put "gedit $1 < /dev/null" in gedits command field -> save
That's an amazing solution!
Maybe better would be...
gedit "$1" < /dev/null
(with the quotes). That way we prevent gedit to open two files with each non-spaced name in the case that our file name had blank spaces.
(gedit foo bar -->one file for 'foo' && one file for 'bar')
Thank you,

I have created a .m4v file from iPhoto and would like to share it with someone else knowing that the file is quiet large (86 Mo), i used to share file with mobileme, how Can I do that with iCloud ? or another way....

In iphoto, I have create a diaporama which I exported to itunes as a m4v file. I would like to share this file with someone but it is too big to send it via email (84 Mo). This file is now in my films in itunes. Is there a way to share it via icloud.
I used to share files using mobileme which I cannot use anymore.
Thanks for your help,
Eric

How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

I can no longer access a password protected Numbers file with the correct password. Error message only says the file "cannot be opened."

I'm using Numbers version 3.2.2.
Suddenly I cannot access my password protected Numbers file with the correct password. I have the correct password written down so I know I haven't made a mistake.
The response box that pops up says that the file cannot be opened. There are no other options for me to choose from.

Also, I tried to open it through an older version of Numbers but it sent this error message.

MY system folder, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac) How do I remove them

I have a Macbook Pro running Leopard 10.5.8. I had a problem with my my operating system (my fault, I moved a file I shoudnt have) couldnt boot up but was able to boot up from a backup. I managed to repair my original system except now all the system folders, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac). For the most part the dupes are an exact copy, but not always. I want to remove them to free up space and cant imagine duplicate folders in the /system/library are not hindering my computer. But I dont know where to start and am afraid of doing irreparable damage. Any ideas

Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

How to send multiple files with it's original name over HTTPS using one CC?

I am working on a File to HTTPs scenario. It is in production and working fine. Currently we send only one file and I have hard coded the name in the communication channel in the header fields. Now we have to send more files with different names and I want to use only one receiver channel instead of many. We need to send the files with their original names.
I used the ASMA in the sender File Adapter and I see the FileName in the dynamic configuration under http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File name="FileName".
I know we can use a UDF in message mapping and get the value and put it in HEADERFIELDONE. But we don't want to use mapping as the files are huge and we don't want to insert XML tags in the payload.
So how do I put the Filename from the DynamicConfiguration to the HTTP header field as FileName without using mapping? Are there any settings?
Can I put something in the PROLOG or can I use any other module in the File Sender Adapter or is there any other option?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Sai

See my blog:
/people/stefan.grube/blog/2009/06/19/unknown-use-case-of-dynamicconfigurationbean-store-file-name-to-jms-header-without-mapping
You have to put the configuration in sender channel, as HTTP adapter does not allow modules.
For the second module, put values related to HTTP adapter.

Archive file with errors in sender file adapter not working! please help!

Hi Experts,
I have a file to RFC scenario. the input is a XML file. I have setup the flag in sender file adapter channel for archiving the input files with errors. But it is not working.
For testing I have used an invalid xML file for example without the main XML tag. I have also tested with a MSWORD file saved with.xml extension. But in both the cases the files are not getting archived.
My archive location permissions are fine and in fact normal archive operation is happening. That is, if I select the processing mode as "Archive" and gave the Archive directory then files are getting archived. The problem is only with the "Archive faulty source files" option.
What am I missing? DO I need to do some more configurations?
What are the prerequisites if any for this option?
How to test this?
Please help me! I will be greatfull to you all!
Thanks & Regards
Gopal
