Question about All my Files

I'm in the All My Files window of the Finder in Lion (os 10.7). When I choose Arrange by Kind while in the Icon view I only see five lines of file types: Images, Music, Developer, Spreadsheets and Documents. Also in the Music section Show All says there are only 45 documents.
I'm missing something here or just don't understand - any advice please.
Thanks
Eric

Thanks for the information. As you suggest the music files I referred to are not in the itunes folder but elsewhere in my documents folder. However a review I've seen this morning says:
By default, All My Files sorts them by Kind: Contacts; Events & To Dos; Images; PDF Documents; Music; Movies, Spreadsheets; Developer (for HTML and Xcode files); and the catch-all Documents.
I'm missing half of these and don't see how to change it.

Basic question about importing wma files

Hi, I have a basic question about importing wma files. I ripped some cd's on a Mindows computer using Media Player, but now want to copy them to my Mac and use them in iTunes on my Mac. when I use Import in iTunes, nothing happens and I cant even seem to copy them one by one using the Music folder.
Can someone help me?
thanks

iTunes for Mac doesn't support .wma files.
If you can use a PC to convert them, you can use one of many freeware applications. Google for 'wma to mp3'.
For the Mac there's the shareware program EasyWMA that can convert them.
Hope this helps.

Some questions about importing HTML files

Hi, folks
Let's suppose we want to import a pack of HTML files formatted in HTML5 wit's it's CSS into a double-oriented folio. A couple or three questions about that, please:
1. Is there a limit for a reasonable quantity of HTML files I can import into a folio? I mean.. 100 would be way too much, for instance?
2. These HTML files could be navigated and referenced from inside TOC-pages made in InDesign,right? (navto://..., I gues?)
2. Will it be possible, by means of HTML adaptative design techniques, to treat both orientations (vertical and horizontal) as different viewports or screen sizes so that the design adapts for instance the column width with its CSS?
3. That said, will the InDesign final app. respect that adaptative CSS rules?
I am asking this because we are looking for a way to inject big quantities of content with a very similar design into our application in a really fast and automatizable way and I have the suspicion* that importing HTML5 preformated CSS files could be the a very good and simple alternative to importing XML into InDesign templates as we start out content as tagged almost-html files.
Thanks a lot
Gustavo Sánchez (Posting from Madrid)

I assume you are asking about using HTML articles.
1. There is no limit beyond simply keeping things reasonable.
2. Yes. Just use navto://articlename
3. Yes. I've used min-width of 768 and max width of 1024 to control it.
4. InDesign does not enter into any of this with the exception of using the folio builder panel. Everything else is done in Dreamweaver or whatever program you decide to use for the article.
If you want to restrict the HTML articles to one orientation or the other, use the _h and _v suffixes.

A few questions about executable Jar files

Hi,
I have to make an a tutorial system and was going to make it using applets embedded in webpages. This approach causes certain limitations so decided to make it using JPanels that open up as windows on the users computer.
I intend on compressing all the files (java, images, sound etc) within a Jar file and would like a few questions answering.
1. How would I make an executable Jar file that when clicked on will load the program on the users computer. Is there some software to do it for me or do I have to do it from the command prompt?
2. Is using a Jar file the best approach or is there a better way to get my java program to run on other peoples pc's
3. If I create an executable Jar file on windows xp, will it run on a Linux machine?
Cheers

1. How would I make an executable Jar file that when clicked on will load the program on the users computer. Is there some software to do it for me or do I have to do it from the command prompt?The SDK contains all the tools you need. Use the jar command. To make your jar executable, include a manifest file that references your main class.
2. Is using a Jar file the best approach or is there a better way to get my java program to run on other peoples pc'sA jar will work just fine.
3. If I create an executable Jar file on windows xp, will it run on a Linux machine?Yes.

Few Questions About Backing Up Files

Okay, I'm pretty new to this, and have checked the support pages, but I do have some questions about backing up my files.
I'm running out of room on my computer's hard drive, and am wondering if burning the library to CDs will allow me to quickly restore my library on my computer when I sync my iPod.
I know that when an iPod syncs with a comp, it will lose any songs that aren't on the library list. (If I deleted some songs to free up room, I'd lose those songs on my iPod when I synced it up.) Is there a way to prevent that from happening? Some way to save a headache continuously restoring my iPod's library every time I want to add a new song or recharge it?
I'm on Windows XP, if that matters.

Best and easiest solution is to buy an external hard drive. Then simply drag and drop your iTunes folder from your internal onto the external and copy the entire library.

Question about uploading design file when converting a html file to a master file in SP2013

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj822370%28v=office.15%29.aspx
Here there is a note saying "When you upload your design files, you should keep all files that are related to a single design in their own folder in the Master Page Gallery. When you copy your design folder into the mapped network drive, the Master
Page Gallery retains whatever folder structure you created."
What do they mean keeping in own folder in Master Page Gallery? All my design related files are in a single folder containing sub folders of images, css, js.. I copy this top folder to the http://ou.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/
This is also where I would copy my html file to first before converting to master file?
Thank you.

So I mapped to the server drive,
http://our.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/ successfully.
All my design related files are in a single folder containing sub folders of images, css, js.. I should copy this top folder
to thehttp://ou.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/
and also copy my html file to first before converting to master file. My question is do I copy all these files(including the html file to be converted to master) to that masterpage folder before following the instruction to go to SP site
setting and select and convert the html file? Or is there any other steps I should or shouldn't do.
Thank you.

Question about calling batch file by using the System Exec+.vi?

Hi
I have a problem about calling batch file. I know that the system exec is equivalent to "run" in Windows. I called the batch file c:\rtxdos\bs\ch0.bat successfully in the "run" but it didn't work in the LabVIEW program. The dos prompt had an error message "Bad command or file name" and it just happen when I call this batch file in LabVIEW. Why?
Bill.

Hi,
Try to set the "working directory" parameter of System exec.vi to the directory where the batch file is located. It may help.
Good luck.

What about all these files/folders?

* I looked through my Applications and located the following files that do not seem to be applications and perhaps should not be in Applications at all:
-Epson LFP Remote Panel empty folder;
-Epson Printer Utilities 57kb Alias;
-Epson Stylus Pro 3800 empty folder
-Installflash_player_osxintel.dmg, 5.8 MB disk image;
-Lightroom empty folder;
-Microsoft office 2011 empty folder
-Nik Software empty folder
-Utilities empty folder
* When I open "downloads" in the Dock, I find the following:
-HDR efex pro-la-ver1.100.dmg 86,2 MB disk image;
-imageeditingsoftwarefile3.dmg, 83,5 MB disk image, (has something to do with my Lightroom3);
-Photopro.dmg, 41,2 MB disk image
-SecUpd2011-001.dmg, 253.1 MB disk image;
-tuxerants_2010.12.dmg, 4.7 mb disk image.
I like to keep my finder clean and I am planning to remove all empty files, but do not know what to do with the rest?
Thanks for helping me out!

You can delete all the stuff you don't recognize in your Downloads folder, those are not a problem.
Some of that stuff in your Applications folder can be deleted as well, such as the Installflash_player_osxintel.dmg and Epson stuff (if you don't have an Epson printer that you're using).
However, your Utilities folder should not be empty. I would try doing a Permission Repair in Disk Utility - it seems like your permissions might have gotten changed somewhere and thus you are not able to see what is inside your Utilities folder.

Question about opening a file with Quicktime..

Hello,
I would like to open some audio files with QuickTime and not iTunes.
With Panther I used to select ALL the files i needed to modify and then select the default app. for opening them (in this case QuickTime)
Now that I'm running Tiger when I do that all the INFO of each files opens up and I have to make the change one by one.
Any idea?
Many Thanks

Use Option-Get Info.
I don't think this changed from Panther to Tiger, however.

Question about long audiobook files before I buy Zen Mi

I am in the market to buy a hard dri've MP3 player for the purpose of playing audio books. Specifically, I want to download audio books from my local library's netlibrary account and listen to them on the go (these files are 32kbps DRM WMAs). These files have caused problems for two different players I have tried, due to their long length (most files are over 00MB, and play for 8+ hours). I have an old iRi'ver flash player, which will play these files fine, until you get about 4 hours into the file. Then, when you turn off the player, the time elapsed jumps from where you were to 2 hours or so. What this means is that you can't listen to the entire book unless you play the book for its entire duration without stopping it or turning it off. I next tried a Rio Carbon, but it has a different problem. Every time you turn off the Carbon and turn it back on, it will lose it's place in the file by 0min-hour, depending on how long the track is and how much you have listened to. The only ways around this is to either never turn the player off, or write down the time elapsed before you turn off the player, and then fast forward to that time when you turn the Carbon back on. After fighting with it for a week, I returned the Carbon.
So my question is, has anyone actually used a Zen Micro to listen to a very long audiobook, and does it have any weird issues like I have experienced with other players? All I want the thing to do is remember where I left off when I power off the device, within a few seconds.
Thanks

Lots of people have audio books on their micros and i havent head of anyone complaining about them. one good feature the micro has that i believe other dont is the ability to place book marks in a song/audio book at a set time so you can automatically go to where you want without searching.so you could save the book marks for each chapter or something.

A question about updating metadata files in plug in

Hello
I 'm trying to monitor my stand alone java app.
I read the chaper Target Types and Default Collections ( my app exposes jmx beans)
all seems to work ok ( i mean the part wherre it says ..
emctl register oms metadata -service targetType -file full
path/TargetTypeMetadata.xml -pluginId Plugin Id -sysman_pwd sysman
emctl register oms metadata -service storeTargetType -file full
path/TargetTypeMetadata.xml -pluginId Plugin Id -sysman_pwd sysman
emctl register oms metadata-service default_collection -file full
path/TargetTypeCollection.xml -pluginId Plugin Id -sysman_pwd sysman
but , the next line is not clear to me:
emctl register oms metadata-service systemStencil -file full
path/TargetTypeStencil.xml -pluginId Plugin Id -sysman_pwd sysman
My question is: what is TargetTypeStencil.xml file? where can i found it?
Do I realy need it?
and after restart the agent as it says , could i see my beans ? ( i used emcli jmccli tool and created the metadata / default_collection files) ?
Thanks.

So, I folowed the instructions in chapter 13.7.1 ( ProgrammersReference) - EM 12C release 2.
I created my own mbeans , used the emctl jmxcli etc ..
I created both files : for metadata, and default_collection ( The files which the emctli genertaed for me )
I did it on the agent machine. I copy the files under the PLUGIN dir in the agent machine too.
I registered the files using mrs service as it's written ( chapter 16 ) . ( after I copy the files from the agent to the mrs ( oms machine ) machine .
Every thing seems to be OK . I restarted the agent.
Now, when I open the EM console' I can't see the metrics which i defined in the generated files !
Am i missing something??
Please Help!

Questions about "Diff Sequence File With..." function

Hello,
I've started working on a project where I'm maintaining a piece of older code written by a since-departed employee of my company. It's a TestStand 3.0 sequence file calling on Labview 7.0 code. The thing is, there were two of these installations done at different times and, somewhere in the woods between stations 1 & 2, the code base diverged. Part of it was due to not being able to get exact duplicate hardware for the PXI chassis and part was, apparently, due to the fact the client used the 2 machines to test different UUT models.
So, I'm looking at copies of the installed code base on the two machines using the diff feature in TestStand. (If it makes a difference, I'm doing this viewing in TestStand 3.5 since TS3.0 has mysteriously gone corrupt on me at the moment on my main development computer and, if memory serves, you have to uninstall all the later version of TS to reinstall an older version. An altogether fun process, no doubt, but a little time consuming.)
Anyway, the first thing I notice is that very many of the sequence steps have different Step Properties.Step ID values that look something like this: "ID#:2vMTp0db002mQDXArddRSA". Messing with the diff screen showed an option to "Ignore Unique Step Ids" which got rid of these. Regarding these unique step ID's: When are they generated and do they remain constant on a particular machine? Beyond mere curiosity, I wonder because another diff is in some of the "On Pass Target" or "On Custom Condition True Target" under certain Step Properties and the value under there looks suspiciously like those unique ID's (i.e. ""ID#randomstuff""). Are these all dynamically updated at runtime or will I break something by changing those (say if I copy a sequence from one version overwriting it in the other)?
So, I filtered the unique ID's out. The next large area of difference is that many, but by no means all, Labview VI calls have a difference under Step Properties > Flexible Labview Adapter Properties > ViCall > Connector Pane Checksum > Value. Also, in a few other instances, ViCall > error out > Connector Number is different as well. Does this indicate a different underlying VI?
There are a few other differences, but I can interpret those. My goal is to get one sequence file for both machines so the code will be easier to maintain. I do think that some of the VI's with different Connector Pane Checksums may be different between the two installations since one of the different hardware components required a different driver library. This leads to a third question, what does it take to use identical sequence files when the underlying VI's might differ? Is it just the interface needs to be the same? Like the connector pane has the same geometry and data types for the exposed inputs and outputs?
Thanks for any help,
Mike
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just got off the phone with NI support, so no worries on the answers.
Short versions:
The unique ID's are regenerated when a sequence is copied.
Teststand doesn't need higher versions uninstalled to reinstall an earlier copy.
Connector Pane Checksum implies a different underlying VI, but having the same connector geometry/inputs/outputs/types should allow you to have a different VI for different installations without different sequence files.
Still waiting to hear back from support on whether the goto pointers get updated properly when a sequence or portion of a sequence is copied.

Question about Custom Shape Files from newbie to PS

My husband bought me PS CS4 Extended. That said, I have never used PS at all. I have always used PSP. Please don't hate me!
I have figured out that one loads actions and presets. OK, got that. The question I have is if I can have my Custom Shapes and Actions on a completely different partition? I ask this because there is not enough room on the partition for me to continue adding shapes and such to PS in the program itself. I am figuring that I can since I have tio load them into the program anyway, but am asking to be sure so that I don't screw anything up.
Another question I have is if I am able to point PS to where all of my plugins are that I already have installed in PSP, which also happen to be on a different partition. In PSP all one has to do is to point the program to where they are and all is good and they can be used within said program. Does PS allow for this also? If not, do I have to re-install all of the plugins into the PS program itself? I just don't have that much room on the partition that my PS resides on because of all of the other pregrams that I have. Also, does everything I load into PS just stay loaded or do I have to reload each time I want to use that particular preset?
I do hope that ya'll can understand my questions and thank you for any help in advance.

the benefit of having the presets in the proper folders is that you can select them from the fly-out menus instead of having to search for them using the Load command so yes, you can have them wherever you want. I doubt though that you don't have enough disk space for them, for instance, all the actions that come with Photoshop take up about 200kb, the custom shapes are about 700kb but that's because they come in duplicates. And yes, all that you load up stays in Photoshop until you remove them, no need to reload them at program start. For plug-ins you have the option to set an additional plug-in folder by going to Edit->Preferences->Plug-ins, don't know about needing to install them though as i don't use any

(newbie) Question about replacing .class files and web.xml file

I'm new to servlets and I have two quick questions...
Do I absolutely need a web.xml file to define all my servlets, or can I simply place .class files into the WEB-INF directory and expect them to run?
If my application server (for example Tomcat) is running and I replace a servlet .class file, do I need to restart the server for the new .class file to take effect?
...or are both of these questions specific to the application server I'm using?

Hi,
From an article I read:
With Tomcat 3.x, by default servlet container was set up to allow invoking a servet through a common mapping under the /servlet/ directory.
A servlet could be accessed by simply using an url like this one:
http://[domain]:[port]/[context]/servlet/[servlet full qualified name].
The mapping was set inside the web application descriptor (web.xml), located under $TOMCAT_HOME/conf.
With Tomcat 4.x the Jakarta developers have decided to stop allowing this by default. The <servlet-mapping> tag that sets this mapping up, has been commented inside the default web application descriptor (web.xml), located under $CATALINA_HOME/conf:


A developer can simply map all the servlet inside the web application descriptor of its own web application (that is highly suggested), or simply uncomment that mapping (that is highly discouraged).
It is important to notice that the /servlet/ isn't part of Servlet 2.3 specifications so there are no guarantee that the container will support that. So, if the developer decides to uncomment that mapping, the application will loose portabiliy.
And declangallagher, I will use caution in future :-)

Question about moving library file/playlists

I've just switched to a new computer, and while I was able to move my music and video, my playlists were gone(the music and video were on an external HD, but the library file with the playlists was on the old computer's HD). I've found the library file on the old computer, and I plan on plugging the external HD into the old comp and copying the libary file to it as a means to getting it onto the new comp.
Just one question: The previous comp was badly corrupted by viruses. I'm worried that if I copy the library file to the new comp, the new comp will become infected as well. Is this a risk? What can I do to prevent it?
Also, if I get the library file onto the new comp....then what?

Format the drive using your PC. Connect it to your Mac. Transfer the files. Connect to your PC. All is well.
