Point to a folder (directory in windows)

hi all,
I wonder if anyone knows how to get the a folder's directory (String).
I would like the user to indicate where he wamts to save some files (he should point to a specific folder and later all files will be saved there) for this, I need to get the folder's directory (example: C:\\dev\myFiles\zip\)
I don't want to have a copy-paste of the directory but somthing like a FileDialog which is more friendly.
can anyone guide me here,
Peter

1) Use a JFileChooser and set to
fileChooser.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
2) If you want to save the selected directory so that there is persistence between invocations then use the java.util.prefs.Preferences.

Folder Directory Create

I recently Migrated our sharepoint from windows 2003 to 2008. In doing so I lost Cold fusion and a directory Wizard, This wizard was put in place to create a folder directory out on our network drive when used. Now I have Coldfusion 10 installed on my new sharepoint server, I have brought over all of these directory wizard files but it still does not work. Its like I am missing a certain link in the chain here. Can anyone shed some light on the topic?
The wizard opens up to the first page, which it says next to continue. You would select a company which the code is written to pull a companies list from the network drive, then it creates a folder directory with files in the on that network drive. Now when you lick the initital next button it buttons and takes us to a The website cannot display the page. I still have all the original code files, placed into the same exact directory on the sharepoint server. The sharepoint server is an identical match, but its like somewhere something isnt lined up correctly.
I also have downloaded Coldfusion builder also.

OKay since page 1 actually doesnt do anything I can skip that, and ill start on page 2 and the other esential code files that actually build the directory.

Unable to Determine Parse Mode!
The validator can process documents either as XML (for document types such as XHTML, SVG, etc.) or SGML (for HTML 4.01 and prior versions). For this document, the information available was not sufficient to determine the parsing mode unambiguously, because:
in Direct Input mode, no MIME Media Type is served to the validator
No known Document Type could be detected
No XML declaration (e.g <?xml version="1.0"?>) could be found at the beginning of the document.
No XML namespace (e.g <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">) could be found at the root of the document.
As a default, the validator is falling back to SGML mode.
No DOCTYPE found! Checking with default HTML 4.01 Transitional Document Type.
No DOCTYPE Declaration could be found or recognized in this document. This generally means that the document is not declaring its Document Type at the top. It can also mean that the DOCTYPE declaration contains a spelling error, or that it is not using the correct syntax.
The document was checked using a default "fallback" Document Type Definition that closely resembles “HTML 4.01 Transitional”.
Learn how to add a doctype to your document from our FAQ.
No Character encoding declared at document level
No character encoding information was found within the document, either in an HTML meta element or an XML declaration. It is often recommended to declare the character encoding in the document itself, especially if there is a chance that the document will be read from or saved to disk, CD, etc.
See this tutorial on character encoding for techniques and explanations.
Using Direct Input mode: UTF-8 character encoding assumed
Unlike the “by URI” and “by File Upload” modes, the “Direct Input” mode of the validator provides validated content in the form of characters pasted or typed in the validator's form field. This will automatically make the data UTF-8, and therefore the validator does not need to determine the character encoding of your document, and will ignore any charset information specified.
If you notice a discrepancy in detected character encoding between the “Direct Input” mode and other validator modes, this is likely to be the reason. It is neither a bug in the validator, nor in your document.

Validation Output: 27 Errors
Line 1, Column 1: no document type declaration; implying "<!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM>"<HTML>
✉
The checked page did not contain a document type ("DOCTYPE") declaration. The Validator has tried to validate with a fallback DTD, but this is quite likely to be incorrect and will generate a large number of incorrect error messages. It is highly recommended that you insert the proper DOCTYPE declaration in your document -- instructions for doing this are given above -- and it is necessary to have this declaration before the page can be declared to be valid.
Line 3, Column 11: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "I" <TITLE>C&I Engineering - Project Directory Wizard</TITLE>
✉
An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".
Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters.
If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem.
Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.

Is there a way I can set iTunes to add files automatically from a folder in my Windows PC?

Is there a way I can set iTunes to add files automatically from a folder in my Windows PC and ensure that it is synced automatically? For example, if I add or modify a file in that folder it should be added to iTunes automatically. At the same time the original files in the folder should not be re-organized. That is can I just point to a music folder in my hard drive and sit back for iTunes to do the rest?

Minor Nit - Default Install Directory in Windows 7

I notice that on installation, the new empty catalog is installed to the user's My Pictures folder.
With Windows 7, the Library feature allows one to have multiple directories for photos (not just My Pictures) in the Pictures library, and allows one to set a default directory for new files to be created/written in. IMHO, LR4 should be cognizant of the Pictures library in Win 7 and default to installing new catalogs, etc. to the default save location in the Pictures library.
That is all.

Safari is 32-bit. It's run through the Windows-on-Windows-64 machinery on your system. The SafariSetup.exe installer contains a 64-bit version of Bonjour, though (in case the installer gets used on a 64-bit system), so Bonjour will be 64-bit for you, as required.

Pointing to the application directory

I'm been using this (LeaveApp) folder for development. Now I want to point to this folder which is in c:\LeaveApp. How to do it?
Please show the guideline or url if you know it. Thanks.

You know you can deploy more than just the ROOT webapp, right (assuming you're talking about the ROOT webapp that comes with Tomcat)?
The proper way to create a redistributable webapp is to create the complete folder structure as it would appear in ROOT, with just the files from your app, and then zip them up in a war file (you can use WinZip or the Java jar tool to create the war file, just name the file .war instead of .zip or .jar.
So imagine you have a directory layout like this:../myapp/*.jsp
../myapp/WEB-INF/web.xml
../myapp/WEB-INF/lib/*.jar
../myapp/WEB-INF/classes/....You should then zip up the contents of the myapp folder (the myapp folder itself should NOT be in the zip) and call the file myapp.war. Then when you deploy it (for example by placing it in the webapps directory of a Tomcat installation), it will be available on the server as (for example) http://localhost:8080/myapp/ (the name is derived from the name of war file by default).

After Drive Replacement, iTunes Points To Wrong Folder Even After Adjusting Settings

I moved my music to a new hard drive. I then adjusted settings within iTunes to "point" to the folder on the new drive. The folder name is identical as are all the files within it. I did this a few months back and had no issues once iTunes "located" my files. All files played, playlists remained intact. This time however only a small portion of my files successfully "located" and the remaining 75% are unplayable. When "shown in finder", the unplayable tracks point to a completely random folder within my mail folder of obviously non-music files. I've been searching for weeks how to fix this to no avail. I definitely do not want to lose my playlists, play counts, etc. so starting from scratch with iTunes is not an option for me. Please advise how to fix this very odd issue!
iMac 3.4 Ghz i7
OSX 10.8.5
iTunes 12.0.1.26 (just updated)

To resolve this we will need details. I don't know exactly what is where. Even though it "worked last time" I see people post with that and almost invariably there is something different in the scenario this time.
The iTunes application alone has no idea where media files are. You could drag all the media folders you like to the Media folder and it won't know. You could "point" iTunes to that folder in preferences and it still will never look there. iTunes knows where files are because as you add them to iTunes it puts them in the Media folder and makes a note in that .itl file where the files are located. When you try to play a track iTunes looks up in the .itl file which media file it should try to play when you request the track and goes to that location to play the file. If there file isn't there you get ! You have to mend the links one by one, or iTunes might try, based on you repairing links. to repair other links, but it doesn't usually work that way and is only partly successful at times (as we have already discussed). If you have ever walked into a store and see an empty shelf but their web site says they have 3 in stock and the sales person says all their stock is out on the shelf, iTunes is like that.
Here's a bunch of links on how iTunes works. As you can see, an entire library is a whole bunch of files and support folders working in concert and when they get split up iTunes starts misbehaving.

Our "IT" (outsourced) department migrated the network folders to another server and changed the filepath on the one folder I need to mount on my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.8).
I have been able to mount the new folder onto other Windows boxes succesfully, but the filepath name doesn't work. I can get to the server and mount other folders there, but they have changed the file path and I'm hitting a brick wall when I try and mount it. The error message says that my Mac can't find the original folder..
Here is the windows ORIGINAL filepath ://pcmsf01\dept
Here is the new filepath ://pcmfs02\d\dept
The dept folder is the one in question...
As I said, I can mount other folders from the new (pcmfs) server, but I really think that the new naming of the filepath is confusing the Mac
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Extremely annoying problem with user folder name in windows 8.1

Here is the thing:
Friend of mine bought the laptop (very strong and expensive asus - republic of gamers) with installed windows 8.1 on it, but after a few days only I bought that computer from him because he didn't need it and he didn't use it at all!
But, his name stayed in the windows. I changed all user accounts names and everything which was possible to be changed, but when i go to C/users his name is still there on folder!
I can say it is very annoying because that laptop cost almost 3.000 USD and I still need to look at someone else's name in my user folder!
I tried to change "ProfileImagePath" in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\ .... but after that windows logged in as a temporary profile and I spend another hour to figure out
how to reverse the thing!
How is possible that some so basic and simple things can't be changed at all in newest windows??? Only because some name was entered first it's not possible to be changed ever again???? Seriously?
Not only this problem, there is too many problems with this windows 8.1! Too many! You definitely made the worst thing ever!
I am extremely unhappy and upset with this operative system! I,m cursing the day when i gave so much money for computer with crap called windows 8.1!!!!
Very very angry!!!
(P.S English is not my native language)

Hi,
According to your description, it seems that you have resolve that issue.
Not only this problem, there is too many problems with this windows 8.1! Too many! You definitely made the worst thing ever!
Please let us know what problem did you encounter? Please give us more detailed information in order to provide the further help.
Here is a overall guide for you to know well the Windows 8.1
Windows 8.1: frequently asked questions
No Karen, I didn't resolve the issue.
I asked very simple question how to change something so basic like user folder name in Windows 8.1
You know: "C:/Users/"user name"
All the links you are giving to me doesn't provide any concrete answer to this question. I spent hours and hours googling and researching about this question and only solution which i found is that i need to create completely new user account and delete completely
the old one, just to be able to remove an old name of user folder! Are you kidding me?
How is possible that such a basic thing is so complicated?
Is there any way to change folder user name in any other way because i don't want to create a new user account!
Simple question, but, like always, no any concrete answers - just some empty talks, and totally useless links and SPINNING IN THE CIRCLE all the time without the CONCRETE solution.
As for part of my post which you quoted, and your request for more informations in order to provide me further help, i just gave it to you again. I want to change user folder name. What you don't understand in that question?
UPDATE:
Ok, i came back to edit this post because i have a feeling that maybe you don't understand the question and giving me this link because maybe you simply don't know that when you go to:
Control panel/user accounts/change your account name... and change the name, and after that, when you go to C:/users, the folder with the user name still have an old user name. Which means that any changes in control panel or anywhere else doesn't make any
changes on C:/users/ folder itself!!!!!
In previous windows versions was possible to change it by editing "ProfileImagePath" in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\ ....
But when I try to do that in Windows 8.1, when I reboot computer it logs in with some temporary account, so i need to reverse everything to be able to use computer with the real account!
So basically it seems that is absolutely impossible to change user folder name in Windows 8.1, which is simply unbelievable!
I really think i explained very good now.

TS3989 My Photo Stream works and I have iCloud control panel installed. The photo stream sync is selected, but when I go to the my photo stream folder on my windows PC there are no photos in the file.

My Photo Stream works and I have iCloud control panel installed. The photo stream sync is selected, but when I go to the my photo stream folder on my windows PC there are no photos in the file.

mlvov,
I did as you said and went to the icloud control panel on my Windows 8 Laptop to be sure I was looking at the correct folder for my photo stream. All my "shared" albulms pushed to my Laptop and are up-to-date with the exception of the "photostream" album. If I create a "shared stream album" and place photo's in it on the phone; I can see the photos on my laptop. I dont get it. I had a iphone 4s and had zero isues and now with my new nifty iPhone 5s it doesent work.
What am I not doing correctly.
Thanks,
iPhone, 5s, iOS 7.0.2

Trouble getting the default user directory under Windows XP

I m trying to get the default user directory under windows XP SP3.
To do so, I'm using
System.getProperty("user.home");
I was expecting to get a path like "C:\Documents and Settings\user", nstead of that I get "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Destop".
I checked the %USERPROFILE% and %HOMEPATH% window's environment variables and both of them are correctly set ( set to "C:\Documents and Settings\user").
Is there any way to get the right path other than using : System.setProperty("user.home", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\user"); ?

Thanks WalterLaan,
The System.getenv("USERPROFILE") method will, at least, fix the problem under win XP.
I guess i'll have to write a more refined method to be able to deploy my application under differents OSes.
Regards.

XML forms app with link pointing to KM folder

Hi guys!
I need to create in XML forms an application for messages. A message should include a link, which will point into KM folder with documents or photos. This link can be for each message different.
How to achieve this?
Thanx!
Peter

Hello Peter,
If you use a "Browser" Element in the XML Forms Builder, you can assign the type Object or Preview for images. The data Sheme should point to Rid or Image (depends what you want), this is a property of the data sheme element in the lower left corner.
hope this helps,
Axel
