Rename file or folder in Finder?

I am convert from Windows.
In Windows, to rename a file or folder you just highlight its icon and hit F2. Then the field becomes editable. Is there such a shortcut key in OS X/Finder? Right now, I am highlighting the file/folder, doing a crtl^ Get Info in the context menu. Really slows me down. Thanks.

Alternatively, select the file then (after a short delay to avoid double-clicking) click in the name box. This will also make it editable.

  • When right mouse click on a file or folder the finder refreshes

    Hi everybody!
    I am having problems with the finder of my PowerBook G4. I have recently reinstalled Mac OS 10.4.8. I have installed Final Cut Studio and right now I am having problems with the finder. When I right click on a file or folder the finder seems to refresh itself and closes all the windows I have there.
    It doesn´t happen all the time but I am getting worried about it. Please, help me.
    Thank you in advance.

    This is the Finder crashing and relaunching. It's probably caused by a dodgy contextual menu module (CMM). I've noticed people complain that a Stuffit Module is causing this problem. CMM's are stored at HD/Library/Contextual Menu Items or Home/Library/Contextual Menu Items. Try removing them and logging out and back in again, a little trial an error will find the one causing the problem.

  • How to rename files by folder name in applescript

    Hi,
    I need to be able to rename files within a folder to the folder name. I have a work flow and script that allows me to find the files within a folder, enter a new file name and starting sequence number in tow seperate dialogue boxes. What I want to be able to achieve is to rename the files without manually entering the name... I still want to be able to manually enter the number.

    Use code such as:
    tell application "Finder"
    set the_folder to (choose folder)
    repeat with this_file from 1 to (count (get files of the_folder))
    set name of file this_file of the_folder to (name of the_folder) & " " & this_file
    end repeat
    end tell
    replacing the last this_file on the fourth line with the variable which contains the number.

  • I renamed the Library Folder in Finder, and then imported photos

    Several months ago after first purchasing an iMac, I imported some photos. Since these photos were all from a Mexico trip, I went into Finder and renamed the iPhoto Library folder to "Mexico Photos". What I didn't know then, but certainly do now, is that renaming a folder in Finder is a cardinal sin in iPhoto. Now I have a problem, because yesterday I started importing and organizing hundreds of photos. After creating 97 events with over 1500 photos, I realized that all the newly imported photos are in the "Mexico Photo" file. Since I now have photos from several different events, I wanted to change the folder name to something other than "Mexico Photos". So once again I renamed the file back to the original "iPhoto Library" but after doing that, I couldn't open any of the photos. The 97 events were there, but the photos were all blank. When I clicked on a photo, an explanation mark appeared. After changing the name in Finder back to "Mexico Photos", all my photos and events are visible and I can open all the photos. So my question is how can I change the folder name to something other than "Mexico Photos" without losing all my photos again?

    Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
    If you quit iPhoto,rename the iPhoto library package and launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key you can select the library - the newly named iPhoto library should be selectable
    The name of the library does not affect operation as long as you have not modified the contents of it

  • Renaming files in folder

    trying to figure out how to use automator to rename files within a folder.
    searched on youtube but none of the methods seem to work on my mac.
    if anyone knows of a great tutorial for this i would love to have it.
    thanks'
    Owen

    Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. Are you referring to the Downloads folder that Mac OS X sets up by default in your user's home directory? If so, you rename files in that folder the same as you would any other folder. The Downloads folder does not (unless something's amiss with the permissions on your system) restrict anything and isn't any sort of "special" folder in terms of how it behaves.
    If that's not what you meant, please post back and explain further.
    Regards.

  • [Solve] Bash: Rename file in folder to sequential numbers saving path

    I have a folder with many subfolders with many files. I want to rename all files to sequential numbers (0001.jpg, 0002.jpg, .0003,jpg ...) but i want to save the path. I mean that the files should not be saved in the root directory (where i launched the script), but I want them to remain in original subdirectorys. How can i do this?

    are all the subdirectory. Can i use "$(pwd)/*" instead of "$1/*"? In this way i don't write the parent directory
    If you want to specify $PWD, just call the script with an argument of '.' to point it at PWD.
    cypherinside wrote:
    if [[ -d $src ]];
    walk "$src"
    continue
    fi
    I dont' understand
    It's simple recursion. You don't want to rename directories, you want to process the contents of the directory in the same way you're processing the current directory.
    cypherinside wrote:
    printf -v dest '%s/%04d.jpg' "$1" "$(( ++i ))"
    Stores in dest... what? I assume that %s is a string as in C language, infact you give "$1" as argument (but why?). And I assume that  "$((++i))" is like i=$((i+1)). Is it right?
    It's the bash equivalent of sprintf(3).
    cypherinside wrote:
    [[ $1 ]] || exit 1
    I don't understand.
    If $1 doesn't exist (i.e. you passed no arguments to the script), then refuse to run and exit immediately with an error.
    You weren't really clear in your requirements, so I wrote it as I interpreted it. If you want to reset the numbering for each directory, scope 'i' locally:
    #!/bin/bash
    walk() {
    local -i i=0
    for src in "$1"/*; do
    if [[ -d $src ]]; then
    walk "$src"
    continue
    fi
    printf -v dest '%s/%04d.jpg' "$1" "$(( ++i ))"
    mv "$src" "$dest"
    done
    [[ $1 ]] || exit 1
    walk "$1"

  • Unable to move files or folder in Finder GUI

    I am no longer able to drag files in Finder folders nor on the Desktop using my mouse or the trackpad. As administrative user, I still have read/write privileges over folders and file and none are "locked." It is still possible to move items to the trash via the Finder's menu command. I simply cannot manipulate any of the files in the Finder GUI with my cursor input devices.

    same problem here.
    The only solution i've found is to trash finder preference file and reboot.

  • Weird flashing problem - cannot rename any file or folder in Movies

    I have a problem affecting just my Movies folder. Whenever I view it in the Finder, the edge of the Finder window will flash once every four seconds. If I am trying to rename an item within the Movies folder when the flash happens, I get dumped out of the name editor and the file or folder is given the partially-typed name.
    It only happens when I'm viewing the Movies folder in the Finder. Any ideas?

    What do you mean by "flashing"? Can you post a video or photos for us to see?

  • Can't delete, rename files, or move to another folder

    I had posted earlier about not being able to delete, rename files, or move to another folder. It never was resolved here, and I guess Apple still hasn't done anything about it. Here's a great workaround I found though in case others need something. Download the program called "Unlocker", it's free and you can get it at http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/ When you get the message about the file being in use, even though QuickTime isn't even open, you can unlock the f'ing file and do whatever you want to then, move, uh DELETE, or rename, or whatever. Try it, it's the best thing going so far seeing Apple isn't doing anything about this problem.

    Hi there,
    I am still struggling with this problem. Actually my coworker has the same machine, Apple pro with windows xp installed, but he does not have this problem with his quicktime 7.5. I uninstalled 7.5 and installed 7.2, but it did not solve the problem. The fact is that I don't have the problem in my laptop which I am using it in the office. I am still trouble shooting. Hopefully I can find an answer.
    Peace

  • Renaming Folder Crashes Finder

    Greets. I've been experiencing Finder crashes ever since installing the latest Security Update (from last week). Finder crashes when I try to rename a folder. If I persist, it usually gets around to accepting it after the third or fourth try. I have two Macs--my main workhorse, the iBook, and my backup and general media playback device the Pismo. I get the problem on both computers.
    What I've done so far (a lot of overlap between all of these things, I know):
    (1) Rebooted with DiskWarrior and run all available checks, etc.
    (2) Rebooted with the Tiger install disk and run Disk Utility's FirstAid
    (3) Run all of the rebuilds/maintenance checks/etc. available through MainMenu
    (4) Ran part of a Memtest, umm, test on my iBook. However, I abandoned that part way through since (a) it became clear that it was going to tie up my iBook for a lot longer than I can afford right now and anyway (b) I checked and the Pismo is having the exact same Finder problem. I rather doubt that the memory on both computers has suddenly failed, though just to be safe I plan to let my iBook chew on Memtest overnight tonight.
    (5) Tried creating a new account to see if the problem still exists. It does not. Great, so now if I want to rename a folder, I have to log out, rename, and then log back in to my main account
    (6) More to the point, clearly there's some app that I'm running on both computers that disagrees with the security update (or possibly Safari 3.2.1 . . . though I had already been running Safari 3.2.1 for a week or so but don't recall this problem coming up). The question is, which app? A.P.E. would seem to be a likely candidate, but I tried uninstalling it and rebooting, but the problem persisted nonetheless.
    Here's my Finder crash log. Anybody have any suggestions?

    Thanks for both replies so far. Unfortunately, no dice.
    To K Shaffer: I had already taken all the steps you recommended (permissions have been rebuilt with MainMenu, DiskWarrior, and DiskUtility; I launched from DiskWarrior and DiskUtility disks and rebuilt permissions that way, too; additionally, various bindings have been rebound, caches emptied, maintenance scripts run, etc. through MainMenu, which for all intents and purposes is the same thing as Onyx--I've yet to hear or see anything that convinces me one is better than the other and I find MainMenu to be more user friendly, but YMMV). The one thing I haven't done yet is run fsck. I'm rather inclined to believe it won't help, alas--I'll explain why in a second--though I plan to get around it anyway after I post this messaged.
    To Klaus: As I said in my original note, I did uninstall APE. However, I didn't try wiping all traces of those Unsanity apps from my computer. I've now done that, but unfortunately the problem persists. Incidentally, I use Firefox as my browser, and in any event Safari crashes are not the problem.
    To repeat one point that is a little buried in my original note. I am having this problem on BOTH of my Macs, on both my iBook and my Pismo, both of which are running 10.4.11, both of which were recently updated with Security Update 2008-008, and both of which began experiencing this problem after that update was applied. That's why I'm a little inclined to believe fsck isn't going to resolve my issue--this isn't a problem with just one computer (but who knows, I'll give it a spin anyway) I'm using my Pismo as a bit of a testbed right now. The Unsanity APEs are uninstalled. I've also uninstalled Default Folder X, which was recently updated. All pref files have been cleared out and I rebuilt permissions again after all that just for grins. The problem persists.
    As I said, I rather doubt RAM is an issue, since the same problem appeared at the same time on two different computers whose RAM has heretofore worked without a problem for two years and four years, respectively. It seems like too big a coincidence for both to fail at the same time.
    For further pondering, here's my Pismo's most recent Finder crash log, after all those uninstalls. Oh, and a minor tweak about the problem itself--Finder crashes when (1) I try to rename an existing folder OR file and when (2) I create a new folder AND THEN try to name it. After Finder reboots, it's allowing me to rename the folders and/or files in question.
    Sigh. Any other thoughts?

  • Difficult to Rename Files (Finder windows keep Refreshing)

    Has anyone else noticed how difficult it is to rename files in a folder? It is almost as if Leopard's Finder keeps refreshing (or building thumbnails) or something. Here is my scenario:
    - Browse to a folder (in my case a folder with large files)
    - Hit enter on a file and start renaming the file
    - After 1-2 seconds, finder jumps out of edit mode by itself (as if the page somehow refreshed)
    - Hit enter again and keep on editing
    - 1-2 seconds later, jumps out of edit mode again.
    - Leave the window for 20-30 seconds
    - Then hit enter, then it is easy to rename the file.
    - Thereupon, immediately try to edit the next file, and bam, it exits edit mode after 1-2 seconds (almost as if the previous file rename triggered a 'refresh this entire view' event)
    It is incredibly annoying to attempt to rename a bunch of files with Leopard.

    Ah - I cant seem to get into the habit of "get info" to rename my files. It seems counter productive.
    Is there any other workaround / fix to make the finder stop jumping me out of renaming a file?
    It is incredibly annoying. I will get a few characters typed in, and it will jump out of editing... and then to add insult to injury, the folders is updated and the file jumps to its new alphabetical location in the list - So I have to go find the partially named file to finish the job.
    People ask me if I like Windows or Mac. I say both have benefits and weaknesses. Renaming files is one of my Mac's weaknesses - it seems. It shouldn't be - it is a basic part of an operating system.
    Help!

  • Automator/Applescript to Rename files when dropped in folder based on parent folder name

    When a file is dropped in a folder ( ParentFolder/Folder/File.pdf )
    I want to rename the file to ParentFolder_Folder_01.pdf
        --Get folder
        --Get ParentFolder
        --Check for next available number and use it.
        If ParentFolder_Folder_01.pdf exists, try _02
    I automator, I have chosen folder action
    Added 'Get selected finder items'
    I have attempted to modify another sript I found here to no avail.
    on run {input, parameters}
        tell application "Finder"
            set theFolder to input as string
            set theNameOfFolder to name of folder theFolder
            set theFiles to every file in folder theFolder
            set theFolders to every folder in folder theFolder
            my ProcessFiles(theNameOfFolder, theFiles)
            my ProcessFolders(theFolders)
        end tell
    end run
    to ProcessFolders(theFolders)
        tell application "Finder"
            repeat with thisFolder in theFolders
                set theNameOfFolder to name of thisFolder
                set theFiles to every file in thisFolder
                set theFolders to every folder in thisFolder
                my ProcessFiles(theNameOfFolder, theFiles)
                my ProcessFolders(thisFolder)
            end repeat
        end tell
    end ProcessFolders
    to ProcessFiles(NameOfOuterFolder, theFiles)
        tell application "Finder"
            repeat with thisFile in theFiles
                set theSuffix to my grabSuffixOfFile(name of thisFile)
                set name of thisFile to NameOfOuterFolder & "_" & theSuffix
            end repeat
        end tell
    end ProcessFiles
    to grabSuffixOfFile(theFile)
        set text item delimiters to "_"
        return (text item 2 of theFile)
        set text item delimiters to ""
    end grabSuffixOfFile

    Normally it is a bad idea to do things with items that are in the attached folder (earlier OS versions will retrigger folder actions when an item is renamed, for example), and you don't need to use a Get Selected Finder Items action since the dropped items are already passed to your workflow (also note that the input items will be a list).
    It looks like you are trying to use multiple passes to add on the folder names, but you will have less of a headache if you build the base name and just deal with the number suffix.  If I understood your naming scheme correctly, the following script should do the trick - it isn't very fast, but should be OK for a few items at a time.
    on run {input, parameters} -- rename input Finder items (aliases) to name of containing folders
      set divider to "_" -- the divider character between name pieces
      set output to {} -- the result to pass on to the next action
      set counter to "01" -- start suffix at one
      repeat with anItem in the input -- step through each item in the input
      set anItem to contents of anItem -- dereference
      tell application "Finder" to if class of item anItem is document file then -- don't mess with folders or applications
      set {itemParent, itemExtension} to {container, name extension} of anItem
      if itemExtension is not "" then set itemExtension to "." & itemExtension
      set grandParentName to name of container of itemParent
      set parentName to name of itemParent
      set newName to grandParentName & divider & parentName & divider & counter
      set documentNames to my getExistingNames(itemParent)
      repeat while newName is in documentNames -- increment counter suffix as needed
                                            set counter to text -2 thru -1 of ("0" & (counter + 1))
      set newName to grandParentName & divider & parentName & divider & counter
      end repeat
      set name of anItem to (newName & itemExtension)
      set end of output to anItem -- alias still refers to the same file even after renaming
      end if
      end repeat
      return the output
    end run
    to getExistingNames(someFolder) -- get base document names (no extensions) from a folder
      set nameList to {}
      tell application "Finder" to repeat with aFile in (get document files of someFolder)
      set {fileName, fileExtension} to {name, name extension} of aFile
      if fileExtension is not "" then set fileExtension to "." & fileExtension
      set fileName to text 1 thru -((count fileExtension) + 1) of fileName -- just the name part
      set end of nameList to fileName
      end repeat
      return nameList
    end getExistingNames

  • My iWeb image names are incompatible with FTP servers and must be renamed but I can't find the images in iWeb. I can upload to a desktop file and change them there but then I would need to download them to a new site in iWeb to publish them.

    my iWeb image names are incompatible with FTP servers and must be renamed but I can't find the images in iWeb. I can upload to a desktop file and change them there but then I would need to download them to a new site in iWeb to publish them. 
    What's the answer?
    Thanks 

    Many thanks to  responded to my question and sorry not to get back sooner.
    Yes, I discovered by this unfortunate experience that the names of photos are a serious issue if the site is to ever go to an FTP server.  Apple should discuss this carefully in their "manual".
    One more question:  I uploaded the website to a folder on my desktop. When I open it, unlike the photos in iWeb, there are folders for each page which have all the photos in them. I went through each folder and changed the names to be FTP compatible. I'm using iWeb SEO Tool which allows one to upload from this local folder to an FTP server but having trouble.
    Is this because there is an imbedment in iWeb that uses the old photo names to link to the actual photos and it can't find them because of the name changes?
    Thanks again for your help ...

    Hi Kiruthika,
    1. You only need the configarchive if you don't want create all the KM configuration objects mentioned in the guide manually. So, just create the objects mentioned there and you don't need the configarchive
    Also, the scenario works also on 2004s.
    2. Please check this thread on how to show the total number of files inside a folder:
    https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=19610
    3. It would be nice if you would consider rewarding the time people like Saravanan spend to investigate and answer your question by assigning points via the colored stars.
