Organizer File Name Mass Change - Manual Rearrange Capability?
I used to use Bridge 6 to mass change file names. I could drag files into desired rearranged locations and then rename the batch in any order I wanted. Elements Organizer does not seem to have that capability. Am I missing a simple trick or did this program go backwards in capability? I bought Photoshop Element 12 ONLY for the Organizer!!!!
I'll be short. The Organizer is not for you. Or you are not for the organizer. It's a pity you did not use the trial version to check this before buying the software.
Now for some of your practical questions:

I do prefer to rename my files and move them to folders of my choice such as Family Photos 2013, Family Photos 2014, Work Photos, Comic Book Related Images etc... I don't manipulate the images themselves, just filenames.
Nothing wrong with that, but that's possible in the organizer, even if it's best done with a browser like Bridge.
I can't stand generic filenames given by cameras or applications so I give them meaningful names like a date sequence and location like 20140504ZooVisit001 or some such name.
Did you consider using captions instead ? They are much more flexible, readable and searchable in a database system.
If I have 50 sequentially, generically named photos in a folder and I have opened the folder with Organizer (Bridge) and I want to re arrange let's say Image1, image 2, image 3, image 4, etc... to change the sequence of photos or groups of photos to image3, image 4, image2, image 1.
In Bridge I could drag photos about within Bridge to my desired sequence THEN I could highlight the group and rename them sequentially with a totally new name for permanent file storage. It's really a simple desire.
In the organizer, you can select the photos in a subfolder, or from any kind of complex multicriteria request, and group them in an 'album'. It's just like a 'playlist'. You can order them manually. You can select them and assign a common starting name with an order number suffix. Very basic.
You asked about 'compatibility'. With the above features, the organizer can move, rename, delete files or folders. It can 'write metadata to files', which is not only to keep the keywords, ratings, captions, notes in its database, but also to write them in the files themselves, so that Bridge, or explorer or finder can read them. It can hold many other information like stacks, albums or version sets. But Bridge and the explorer/finder are not compatible to receive such advanced information.

MacBook Pro-'the disk copy of "file name" was changed...'
My MacBook Pro has been running very slowly. Occasionally, the message 'The disk copy of "file name" was changed since you last opened of saved it. Do you want to save it anyway?" when attempting to save photoshop files. It also tells me my start up drive is nearly full but it is not. I'm guessing the these are related. Anyone else experiencing this?
I also just started experiencing this.
Quick Specs:
MBP 8GB 2.3Ghz 1.7 (Early 2011)
256 SSD
OSX Lion 10.7.2
I have seen this with Photoshop, Flash, and Dreamweaver CS 5, and Eclipse.
I am growing concerned that this is either the SSD starting to fail or possibly the new Spotlight index algorithm.
Would really like to see if anyone has a fix. -
HELP! I lose original file name when changing folders or extensions
I'm confused! Didn't used to be a problem, but now, when I 'save as' and change either the original file location or the file extension (eg PSD to JPG) the file name changes to ".jpg" Any ideas would help!!! thanks.
Default format isn't the problem. I don't think i explained very good, let me elaborate:
Say I have a file named "abcdefg".
I open it, and edit it, add layers etc.
When I choose "save as" the orgianal name of the file appears ("abcdefg") as the "file name", all good here.
This is where the problem occurs: if I
A) change the folder the file will be saved in
B) change the format/extension
the file name "abcdefg" is wiped out and the file is automatically renamed ".JPG" or ".PSD" whichever format the orgianl files was (if i'm saving in a different folder) or ".JPG" ".PSD" according to the new format/extension.
This is a problem because i'm working with long complex file names that I'd prefer to not have to manually enter everytime I save. To make things more frustrating, it wasn't doing this before. Any info helps, and thanks for the quick response. -
I am downloading some files via Safari. I then click the file name and paste the preferred name (usually in column view) copied off the Safari window. After a few, Finder stops allowing me to make any changes. I can get the name to open as if it can be changed, but anything I type will not take. I force quit finder and it works ok again. I have had this occur now and again throughout many 10.4 versions. Sometimes I can paste dozens of names, just now I did 1 and it stopped taking the change. Key commands to close windows also then stop working. Though force quit key command brings up that window. Changing name in Info window does not work. Keyboard viewer clicking letters does not work, though keyboard viewer clearly shows the key's typed are recognized. Often these changes pull up a window asking me if I really want to add a particular extension.
Why does this happen and is there a more permanent fix?
Or any simpler fix than restarting the finder?
thanxAbsolutely, it can do this.
In the import dialog's filename box, pull down the list and choose "Edit" to edit your filename preset. You will then be able to create a custom preset with a three digit sequence number.
I've done exactly this myself. -
File name getting changed while exporting file
I am exporting file of name something like
mithun.ruikar.111212.csv
I am using
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=mithun.ruikar.111212.csv");
to export my file.
Now what is happening is on JSP i get download popup and even i can save the file
and it shows proper contents inside.
Only problem is (default) name of file is
now changed to
mithun[1].ruikar.111212.csv.
If i am trying
ruikar.111212.csv only
then i get ruikar[1].111212.csv
and for 111212.csv i get 111212.csv, which is right.
So only when i use more than one . in file name the first . is preceded by [1].
How to solve this?I dont have anything duplicate.
as i said my file name is of format
mithun.ruikar.121344.csv
here last part is time stamp.
and if use file name like 12344.csv or mithun.csv it works fine.
My problem is having filename with more than one dot
and there are no duplicates.
I would like to know some kind of escaping for these dots. -
My Logic file name length changed
For some reason, Logic started limiting my file name lengths to 31 characters. This was never an issue before. I could always use much longer names. About a week ago, for no apparent reason, it started limiting the length and truncating the names to only 31 characters. Anyone know if this is a bug or is there a setting somewhere that i don't know about. I'm on OSX 10.6.8. There is no problem with creating long file names outside of Logic 9.0.0
This has always been so in Logic. It never suddenly "started"...
But it was fixed in version 9.1.0, which came out
almost three years ago
and is a free update for every LP 9 owner...
You really should update, there's no reason not to. If you're on a PPC (G4 or G5), you can only go to 9.0.2 (still worth it), if on an Intel Mac (2006 and later), you can go to 9.1.8; this will improve things for you, and also end the 31 charachter limit, which was an atavism. -
RoboHelp changes file name to lowercase
I am using RH X5.0.2 (running on Win XP SP2) to import HTML files as topics. The primary layout is Microsoft HTML Help.
The original HTML file names are mixed case, but when the files are imported into RoboHelp, the file names are changed to all lowercase. For example, GL_Audit.htm is changed to gl_audit.htm. This is an issue because the topic title reflects the file name, and I need the topic title to retain the mixed case of the original files.
After I import the file, I have to manually change the topic title. However, RoboHelp does not like it when the title has an underscore. If I change gl_audit to GL_Audit and click OK, the change is not saved. But if I change gl_audit to GLAudit and click Apply, and then change it to GL_Audit, the change is saved.
I am using an existing project that was created by someone else a long time ago. Here are the steps that I am following:
1. Right-click the destination folder, and then click Import.
2. At the Import File screen, select the desired file, for example, GL_Audit.htm, and click Open. The file is imported as a topic.
3. Right-click the topic, and click Properties. Note that the Topic Tile is gl_audit, and the file name is gl_audit.htm.
4. In the Topic Title field, type GL_Audit, and click OK. Note that the Topic title is still gl_audit, and not GL_Audit.
5. Open the Topic Properties screen again.
6. In the Topic Title field, type GLAudit, and click Apply.
7. In the Topic Title field, enter an underscore between the L and the A so that the topic title is GL_Audit.
8. Click OK. Not that the topic title is saved as it was typed -- in mixed case.
If I can get RH to import the files without changing the original case, it will not matter that it takes two steps to change the topic title name.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
AshleyHi again
Ashley, how are these HTML pages being created? I ask because I performed a small test. While the import process did indeed convert the file name to all lower case, it ignored the Topic Title. However, if I didn't have a Topic Title defined, it did create one that was all lower case.
I'm thinking that whatever tool that was used to create the topics you are importing didn't properly configure a proper Title Tag.
Cheers... Rick

Database Files Name Change Auto in SQL Server 2012
I am working on SQL Server 2012 and I am restoring diff db's backup with different db names. But, all the time I need to change their db files names manually its not being changed. In sql server 2008 r2 files name auto changed as per db name. Please
guide me for auto change.SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) for SQL Server 2012 doesn't do that, as you have noticed. Nothing we can do about that, if we insist of using SSMS 2012.
SSMS 2014, however, does change filenames for us, in an even more intelligent manner than did SSMS 2008!

Infopackage routine for changing file name
Hi Everyone,
I have to load flat files from application server directories. I get these files from different locations and they are saved in own (location) folders by a script). I would like to run these file from infopackage through process chain. the problem is that these files have changing names. The format is like this
Canada_co3300.csv
I can write a routine is my infopackage but "co3300" keeps changing as it represents different companies code in that particular location (Canada).
I have a routine
data: F1 type string value 'D:\usr\sap\FLAT_FILES\Inbound\Cayman\Canada_<b>co3300</b>_',
F2 type string '.csv'.
concatenate f1 f2 into p_filename.
How can I get a variable <b>co</b>---- in my routine so my infopackage can read the file if <b>co</b> has different value like co2000. Thanks In advance.
Regards,
AsadHi Saugata,
My flat file name has a naming convention based on company code in application server folder, so I get files with name
Canadaco<b>3000</b>.csv or
Canadaco<b>2000</b>.csv or
Canadaco<b>4000</b>.csv or something else <b>(co</b> number keeps changing)
So My file name keeps changing all the time. I would like my infopackage to read these files automatically thorugh a routine or logical file name. I have tried both, but donot know how to configure this scenerio thorugh my infopackage. Please give me steps to use that table you mentioned. Thanks . -
[RFC to File]Problem about Changing file name in message mapping.
Hi,
my problem:
Type:RFC to File
I change the file name in message mapping.
when I call the RFC to send the data twice at the same time, both of the output file names are changed while I only want to change the second output file name.
thanks
SamIn my MM, the input values to these variables (var1, var2 and var3) are (<ZZCOMBI>array,G499999,END_FIFC0029) ,
var1 is an array of input <ZZCOMBI> item list;
var2 is get from a property file by call another UDF;
var3 is constant value.
the test input data :
I send the data for the first time:
- <rfc:Z_IFCFR821_ZIFCTT82100010 xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <T_ZIFCTS82100010>
- <item>

<ENAME_VE />
<ENAME_Z5 />
</item>
</T_ZIFCTS82100010>
</rfc:Z_IFCFR821_ZIFCTT82100010>
so the input values to these variables (var1, var2 and var3) are (G000002G000002,G499999,END_FIFC0029)
the output file name(File1) :END_FIFC002920090413-171534-053.dat
output record: G000002G000002
because the data what I send is the last record, the system send the dummy data for the second time by program.
- <rfc:Z_IFCFR821_ZIFCTT82100010 xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <T_ZIFCTS82100010>

<ENAME_VE />
<ENAME_Z5 />
</item>
</T_ZIFCTS82100010>
</rfc:Z_IFCFR821_ZIFCTT82100010>
so the input values to these variables (var1, var2 and var3) are (G499999,G499999,END_FIFC0029)
the output file name(File2) :END_FIFC002920090413-171533-928.dat
output record: G499999
I find that File2(20090413-171533-928) was ouput before File1(20090413-171534-053 ) from the time stamp.
I am not sure about that "XI will create a message ID for each message and the messages are independent." as you mentioned above.
Best regards

Imported source file name changed for the external table
Hi,
I have external table from flat file. Now the source file name is changed. I can change the file location to point to the new file name, but I can't update the source for the flat file property(as seen under flat file properties,structure tab. the column "Sampled From"). Is there way to have this update without having to import the file using the new file name again?In the Files section in the object navigator find the flat file you want to change the source of.
Double click on the actual file, and on the General tab change the old file name to the new one.
The fact that it has been sampled from a different file should not 'disturb' the working of the external table.
However, if the structure of the new file is different I'd suggest to resample.
Good luck, Patrick -
How to do coding to change the file name while loading
Hi All,
Recently we have upgraded to BI 7.0. I am currently loading flat file from Application server. Flat file name will change after a period of month ex. from 17 dec to 16 jan one file name and 17 jan to 16 feb another name.
I have a table /bic/pzscenario where i have start date and end date and another field(zscenario) which stores name of the file.
Directory created is /interface/gsf/ so file name should be /interface/gsf/"value of zscenario based on system date which falls between startdate and end date".csv.
can anyone tell me how to do coding for this in infopackage?
Thanks this is very urgent. I tried using select statement
select single /bic/zscenario from /bic/pzscenario into tab_zsce
where zstartdate LE sy-datum or
zenddate LT sy-datum.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
concatenate "/interface/" "gsf/" "tab_zsce-/bic/zscenario" into p_filename.
endif.
this coding throws me error saying unexpected endif...
pls correct my coding. If the coding is wrong pls let me know how to code.
Thanks & Regards,
Bhuvana.Hi Bhuvana,
Your code returns more than one "zscenario" value, this might be the reason for error.
It shud be like
sy-datum GE zstartdate and sy-datum LE zenddate

Changing the .chm File Name
I know this topic has been covered before in the forum, but I a little bit slow and haven't quite understood the answers. I am trying to change the name of the .chm file which resides at the root of the C: drive, but outside of the project folder.
Several of the solutions refer to changing the name in the window properties, except I don't know what you are referring to by Window. Is it on a dialog box such as Project Properties or is it something I'm totally unaware of?
Sorry for the redundancy of the topic.Are you referring to the CHM file created when you compile your project? If so, all you need to do is right click on the Microsoft HTML Help single source layout and select Properties. The top field in this dialog - Select Output Folder and File Name - is where you specify the path to the CHM file and the actual file name. Change this to the reference the required file name (e.g. C:\Source\myfile.chm) and click Save. The next time you create your project output the file name will be as you have supllied.
