Remove name from Alias folder?

Hey
I'm bored, so I started making a wallpaper where I have navigation aliases and games and much more... However, that got me thinkin' if there is any way to remove the name from the Alias, so you only see the folder icon?
If not by finder as default, then maybe through a 3rd party program?
Best regards,
Jesper Pedersen

LOL, so easy, can't believe I didn't even see that one coming! anyways, thanks a bunch

Hi I am having problems removing mail from trash folder. Can anyone help please

Hi I am having problems removing mail from trash folder. I can send mails to the folder but cannot delete them permanently from the trash folder. I am using Iphone 3G and anm up to date with OS. Can anyone help please

Check that there isn't a different Trash folder to the one with the proper Trash symbol on it.
If you see one in your list of folders rather than a separate one, highlight it, then click on Mailbox...Use this mailbox for...Trash

You want a "Drop Box" style folder. You should be able to achieve this by creating a folder and giving it permissions similar to the "Drop Box" folder in your users Public Folder (i.e. write only permissions.)

How to get the file name from downloads folder with the applescript??

Hi All..
I am downloading an application to downloads folder, I need to install the same application after downloading programatically.
So how do I get the filename in runtime while downloading or after downloading from downloads folder with Applescript or Java?
Also my download URL link doesnot contain full name of the download file.
Pls suggest.

Hi,
The best method is to use curl.
Other methods are not reliable, but can work, it depends on several factors (what the script does, what the user does).
Here is an example with the curl command:
set tUrl to "http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/files/2.0.4/macosx/vlc-2.0.4.dmg/download?ac cel_key=60%3A1350656196%3Ahttp%253A//www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html%3 A7233e4e9%245818d66f39b0576e1e9c4a0f3b46b1991180bfdd&click_id=976a88ee-19f7-11e2 -9a21-0200ac1d1d8e&source=accel"
set dFolder to path to downloads folder
tell application "Finder" to set newFolder to (make new folder at dFolder) as string
set f to quoted form of POSIX path of newFolder
do shell script "cd " & f & " && curl -L " & tUrl & " -o 'vlc.dmg'" -- download to file "vlc.dmg"
set downloadedFile to newFolder & "vlc.dmg" --<-- HFS path
--do something with the downloadedFile

Remove name from menu bar + possible bugs?

Hello, I was wondering if it were possible to remove my name from the Menu bar. It currently says my full name and is clickable, dropping down to my icon and a link to the Login Window and Users & Groups Preferences (but there's no option to remove it in these preferences!) Thanks!
Also, Is there a thread where we can post bugs we come across? Becuase I've found a couple.
I'll post them here for now:
1) When I go into Finder > Preferences, the menu box flickers strangely when I switch between the option tabs (General, Labels, Sidebar, Advanced).
2) Scrolling left and right through folders in the Column view is hesitant. It doesn't flow smoothly like it does when I scroll up and down.
If there's anywhere I can report these bugs, please let me know!

name from menu bar:
the easy way: hold command and then drag the name icon out of the menu bar (just like how you remove stuff from the dock with the difference of pressing command while you do it).
the less easy way: open system prfs -> Users and groups [press locket if locked] then click login options and uncheck fast user switching menu

Can I use file names from some folder to specisfly a value of a variable

so here is the thing I want to do:
I've got like 3 variables in my swf file which value tells to
the code how many picture there are to load.
So I have like
var totalPics:Number = 5
in my folder images I have 5 pics, but I want to put 3 more
so I want to make suck code that will check the total files in the
folder and return a value of 8 or check the name of the last file
found in the foulder like pic8.swf (I've made it into swf to load
in a loader) and to take that letter 8 from it as a value to put in
the variable totalPics so it is = 8.
Can u tell me is this possible to make in flash.... where I
should read helps or guides .. or just give me a simple example
please.
Thank u a lot. If u have any more questions, just ask me..

Very helpful of you guys ;] Thanks a lot.. so lets continue
on the matter..
GWD the second option is good but can work in a simplier
code.. mine is a bit complexed and by that I mean.. that the total
number of pics or things to load should be known for the main swf
file at his start. That is because before the turn for the pics to
load comes, there is something else that must happen first, and it
depends on that total number (actually 3 total numbers cuz there
are 3 folders with different pics that must mix) So.. can't use the
second option cuz it works good when the code is a bit more simple
than that.
If u didn't understand whant I tried to explain.. doesn't
matter.. not so important atm.
Now the thing with the LoadVars.. yes, I've been thinking the
same thing but like this: At the 1st frame in the main timeline I
have 3 variables that are used further in the code and that must be
predefined by how many pics there actually are, so.. I've been
thining to make 3 different var1.txt, var2.txt and var3.txt files
for example and to put there as value just the number I need. So
when I add more pics for example to my images folder, I edit the
txt file containing their total number and just change it so the
code can automatically add the new pics to the sequence.
I've got some examples of this how LoadVars works with txt
files and I think I can manage to do that, but anyway would be nice
of you to give me some example ;] and of course correct me if my
toughts above are not true.
Now.. SumTsb.. what u mentioned, I am interested in, because
I have a PHP guy, who can make me a code that automatically counts
and gives back the totalPics number from a certain folder (I don't
know for sure that it is possible but if it is he can do it). My
point is.. When he makes this code.. that reterns value of
totalPics, how can I redirect it so it changes the value of
totalPics inside my main swf file. I see only this as option at the
moment:
1) when someone adds or deletes files from the folder the php
code returns a different value, equal to the number of files in the
folder, and automatically changes the content of the file var1.txt
like this:
First off var1.txt has: &content=10 // this is the total
number of pics/swf files in the folder;
when u add.. like 3 more files.. the php code changes the
value inside of var1.txt to: &content=13 and when the main swf
is started he takes the new value and my problem is solved. Is this
what I say as example true ? If it is I guess the only thing left
for me is the php programer to make his code and job is done.
But answer me this question too: is it possible the php code
to return the value of the totalPics directly into the main swf
file. So if I have inside the main swf a variable at the first
frame ot the main timeline called totalPics, can the php give it a
value equal to the total numbers of files in a folder, and how ?
I guess I've written too too much :D so I'll wait what u will
answer me now.. I think you understood my idea.. and if more
questions arise I will write u back. And if no.. I will just thank
you a lot :D

How to remove member from Alias dimension in EPMA 11.1.1.3

Hi,
We are using EPMA for controlling master data for HP and HFM. While uploading members using Flat file import, by mistake, we have added a member called "French" in Alias dimension. Because of that, now all of the HFM applications, which were deployed earlier, are showing error as "The 'Alias' dimension has been modified since the first successful deployment of the application..."
Now, if we are trying to remove the new member "French" from Alias dimension, we are facing error as "The following error occured: Member 'French' is referenced by another Member."
We have checked but still could not find any member which is referencing/has value against this French Alias member.
If you have faced such kind of problem earlier, then can any of you share your experience? That will be very much appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Removing name from contact list

There is a group to which I send a general e mail a few times a month. I have these contacts listed under a group name, so when I type in the group name under "To" all the names appear. There is one person who no longer wants to receive the group notices, and I have completely removed her name and contact information from my address book, but when I type the group name in my "To" box her name still appears. She has a "hotmail" account, as do several other members of my group. Is there anything else I can do, short of trying to remember to delete her name every time I send an e mail to this group?

When you get hold of one of those first line reps on the phone, it depends very much on just who happened to answer the call. Some of them are very good. Others not so much. The only reason I found out about the memory for the To: line is that another poster had asked about it and I contacted Plaxo about it. There was an exchange of emails and they explained how the thing works.
Do you see "Forget" to the right of the first 3 o 4 names when that list comes up? I had no idea what that was for. It is the automated sorting software that the mail program uses to determine what addresses you use most often when typing in a given letter/word combination into the To: field. It then ranks them in that order. If you want it to change you click on Forget and it should remove it from the spot in the list. At least that's what was explained to me. But when I first asked them about it they tried to tell me it was something to do with my browser, which it is not. So I sent them a screen shot of it and then they said "oh wait----yeah------that thingy", and then gave me the correct information.
They don't all know all the features of the mail program or address book.

How to remove document from iCloud folder?

I want to remove and rewrite a document created on Byword v2.3. I locked inside iCloud (Folder 1?

Best Practices for Removing Shots from BDMV folder

CS6 Production Premium Suite
Win7x64
Canon XA10
I would appreciate feedback on the best practices for the following situation:
Using Windows Explorer, I copy the BDMV folder from the XA10 to my Talk2 project folder.
The BDMV folder has three one hour shots (talks) where each shot is one hour called Talk1, Talk2, and Talk3.
Each shot consists of several MTS files in the STREAM folder since MTS files have a maximum file size so a new MTS file is created when a given MTS file reaches the maximum file size.
Since I only want to have Talk2 stuff in my Talk2 project folder, I need to remove the Talk1 and Talk3 stuff from the BDMV folder.
I delete the Talk1 and Talk3 MTS files from the STREAM folder.
I delete the Talk1 and Talk3 CPI files from the CLIPINF folder.
I leave the PLAYLIST folder as is.
Using the Media Browser, I import Talk2 (which consists of two MTS files).
I edit the clip.
This procedure seems to work, but I do not know if there are any "got you" issues.
Thanks in advance.

Oh, don't do it that way. I know a lot of people do, heck, my boss does, but it's just asking for trouble.
Treat your card as if it was your original tape master (because it is). It is the most important thing you have. Don't delete or move any part of it.
If you want to break up the talks, do it as you shoot them. Use separate cards for each talk and archive each one separately. There is too much valuable information in the structure of the card format. You may not need it now but your editing program may need it later.

How to remove name from printed matter

Macbook stuck in gray screen after removing "loginwindow" from CoreService folder

Hi, I was troubleshooting why I was getting a login loop on my main admin account and stupidly removed a file by the name of "LoginWindow" in the CoreServices folder into the trash and now it won't go pass the gray screen. Is there a way I could reinstate what's in my trash to its correct folder in single user mode, or a similar work around without doing a reinstall? Hope to get some help. Thanks.

Restart with the Command and S keys held down and run the following:
mount -uw /
mv /Users/username/.Trash/loginwindow /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow
exit

Removing files from iTunes folder that are no longer in library

Hi all,
Quick question that I require help answering.
I'm trying to tidy up my iTunes library/ Physical storage.
I currently have 1600 songs within iTunes, but through bad management in the past I actually have (I know this after reimporting the library to another machine as a test) 1700 songs within the physical iTunes Folder structure. What I need in order to slipstream my storage is to remove those extra 100 songs lying about in my physical folder without losing the 1600 currently in use and present in iTunes.
Does anyone have an easy way of removing the extra files?
Thanking in advance,
Steve

Use File > Add folder to library... and select your iTunes Media folder. Anthing already in the library will be ignored, anything else will be added. Once the process is complete sort the library on the Date Added column and remove the tracks that have just been added, sending them to the recycle bin.

How to remove tags from a folder

I have reset my tags, but I still have a few folders that will not allow me to remove the colour tag. On other folders I simply clicked the X in the coloured dot to remove the tag, but a few the opition is greyed out. I also tried checking and unchecking the tag colours in the Finder>Preferences menu.
These folders that seem to be affected at the ones I had originally tagged with the old system where it highlighted the whole text.

I solved my own problem.
The "Blue" tag was a duplicate tag from the old system. So I had two blue dots with different labels. To fix it I right clicked on the old blue dot in the left side bar of finder and deleted it. I did this for all of the duplicate coloured tags.
