Saving apps to another folder?

Hi All,
Is there any way to get iTunes to save my apps automatically in my iTunes folder rather than "My Documents" folder? (I'm using a Windows machine). I have all my music pointed to another drive (which is a RAID), but the apps always download to the "My documents" folder.
I'm obviously using V2.1 firmware, and iTunes 8.0

Safari preferences / General tab is where you set the default download location.

HT204655 How do I move photos from the Photo app to another folder?

Before the photos app, I use to just plug my iPhone into my macbook and import my pictures to a selected folder in documents. I have all my photos stored from all my iPhones on my external hard drive. How do I do this now with the photos app? Im not brilliant with the macbook so might be simple for some so please can someone help? Thanks

You can continue t do that using Image Capture instead of importing into Photos - or you can import into Photos and go to the last import, select all and export tot he location of your wishes

How can I "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight (and preferably visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App)?

How can I "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight (and preferably visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App)?
Background:
I am using Mountain Lion and Mail App and running out of space on my small primary SSD drive (where I keep OS, apps, key user preferences/data and mail for speed). The mail data is the big variable (many GBs) and I want to "archive"/move some of the old mail to my 2nd drive inside the Mac. But I still want it searchable inside spotlight and preferably even inside Mail too. And I'd like to be able to still drag and drop old mails into this archive folder.
What I've tried that seems to work:
This seemed to work:
1. Move the archive folder/mailbox to the 2nd drive/partition/folder (don't delete anything inside Mail App)
2. Create a symbolic link from its new location to the original/old location
This seems to work, it looks as "normal" and as if nothing happened inside Mail App but the folder now resides elsewhere and seems searchable etc. But I'm not sure that once caches refresh or over time with updates etc if stuff will break horribly or corrupt.
Is that the right way to "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight and visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Daniel

I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

Link customer submitted web app to another web app

Hi,
Just wondering if there is a way to insert data from one web app into another.
I have 2 web apps - one for business info (submitted and updated by the business), the other for recipes (submitted by the business). They are both linked to the same user.
What I would like is on the page that displays the recipe submitted by a business for there to be a link that says Submitted by Business Name 1 and for Business Name 1 to link to their Business info page. And also on their business info page to have a link saying Recipe name 1 and for Recipe name 1 to link to their recipe page.
There will be hundreds of businesses so if this can be built into the web app and be automated that would be great without having to manually add the links to their business listing or recipe pages.
Cheers

The only way I have managed this is to Extend the CRM and have duplicate fields and links. The CRM can be called when a web app is created. If that CRM has a business name and a link to the existing web app business, then they can be saved into the new web app. The tricky part is to encourage users to update their CRM with the appropriate fields.
Clumsy, but it works. I use it for connecting 'articles' and 'business listings' using the Authors name here: http://www.umbrellamag.com.au/view-umbrella-articles

Issues with subject line when moving emails to another folder

Hi.
For the past few months I've been having a problem moving groups of emails from my inbox to another created folder. When I move a group of emails to another folder the subject of all the emails swap with each other. The issue seems to be with the iPhone native mail app only as when I connect via iPad or web the emails are correct.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Not that I'm aware of.
Mail.app isn't a particularly scalable database in general, so you might want to look at your workflow.
For better or worse, email is often ill-suited as a general information-storage and transfer mechanism.
You might be able to set up a Rule to perform the move when the message arrives; if the mail messages involved are uniquely identifiable.
It's also possible to implement server-side rules, depending on what you're up to, and what your own mail server or particular your mail provider supports here.
I'm using a combination of these two approaches locally.
Or swap out for a different mail client or a mail-handling package; a package or a tool that's better suited for the scale that you're apparently working at, and the requirements you have.

Saving layers within a folder to separate pdf's (complete n00bie warning)

I have designed a set of wedding invites recently and when it came time to export I was wanting to find a smarter (and hopefully faster) way to export each individual invite.
I have the document setup so one folder is all the artwork including details text on the card, and the second folder is a large number of text layers with each invitees name on an individual layer.
I was wanting a script that with one click would export the first folder (with all the wording and artwork) and then only one layer out of the second (invitee text layer) folder, then repeat the process but with the next invitee name. It would be preffered if the pdf was then named after that layer name (ie: the invitee's name).
After much searching I found this excellent script:
Creating Multi-Page PDF from a Layerd Illustrator file (script)
but unfortunately I couldn't find a way to make it work with only layers in one folder and leaving another folder visible.
I am on a Mac and using CS5.
Thanks for taking a look at my question!

If you doc was something like this where I would expect you guest names to be sat in a layer above the base art?
Then this should be close… Well it worked for me with this example file…
#target illustrator
var docRef = app.activeDocument;
with (docRef) {
 var docName = baseName(name)
 var pdfOptions = new PDFSaveOptions();
 pdfOptions.pDFPreset = '[High Quality Print]';
 // Turn all first layers text frames off
 for (var i = 0; i < layers[0].textFrames.length; i++) {
 layers[0].textFrames[i].hidden = true;
 redraw();
 // Turn each first layers text frames off
 for (var i = 0; i < layers[0].textFrames.length; i++) {
 if (i == 0) {
 layers[0].textFrames[i].hidden = false;
 redraw();
 var guestName = layers[0].textFrames[i].contents;
 var saveAsPath = new File('~/Desktop/' + docName + '_' + guestName + '.pdf')
 saveAs(saveAsPath, pdfOptions);
 } else {
 layers[0].textFrames[i-1].hidden = true;
 layers[0].textFrames[i].hidden = false;
 redraw();
 var guestName = layers[0].textFrames[i].contents;
 var saveAsPath = new File('~/Desktop/' + docName + '_' + guestName + '.pdf')
 saveAs(saveAsPath, pdfOptions);
 //close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
function baseName(fileName) {
 var nameString = '';
 var extOffset = fileName.lastIndexOf('.');
 if (extOffset == -1) {
 nameString = fileName;
 } else {
 nameString = fileName.substr(0, extOffset);
 return nameString;

Mac desktop. 10.6.8. Text edit. Not locked. Read and write. Still, documents are locking when they are moved from desktop to another folder on the server. Techies can't figure it out here. What am I not doing?

Mac desktop. 10.6.8. Text edit. Not locked. Read and write, not read only. Documents are locking when they are moved from desktop to another folder or saved directly into that folder on the server. Not happening with anyone else but me and the boss's computer so has to be in the properties for my text edit software. Techies can't figure it out after trying for two weeks. Boss can do a cut and paste and put into a new document, but that's starting to become a problem.

Debugging in a dll on another computer, in another folder.

Hi,
I have a dll which was produced with VisualStudio2008, as console app. I have on that PC (let's say DevPC ):
C:\DevLoc\IntAd.cpp (dll source file)
C:\DevLoc\IntAd.dll
C:\DevLoc\IntAd.pdb (symbol file)
This dll is used also on another computer (let's say AppPC), in another folder (let's say AppLoc). In order to be able to debug in the dll on AppPC using VisualStudio I had to put there also the pdb file (but in original folder) and the source file in
the AppLoc so I have there:
C:\AppLoc\IntAd.dll
C:\AppLoc\IntAd.cpp
C:\DevLoc\IntAd.pdb
This works but then if put on AppPC the source file also in the original location (so I have it in both) like:
C:\DevLoc\IntAd.cpp
the debugger will prefer this one, will enter this one at run time. Strangely, VisualStudio debugger is "smart" (with or without quotes) enough that if I open C:\AppLoc\IntAd.cpp and try to put at run time a breakpoint inside, will automatically
open C:\DevLoc\IntAd.cpp and put the breakpoint there. The problem is that the two source file(s) might be different versions.
Now come the questions and they might seem like XY questions but I'm interested what options I have and how each one can be achieved:
1) What can I do so in the IntAd.dll is embedded not absolute but relative path to the IntAd.pdb so I can put the symbol file in the same folder as the dll file?
2) How can I modify IntAd.dll (I mean really to edit the dll file) to change the pdb path embedded in it? This way I could put the pdb in whatever folder I want on the AppPC. A dirty solution I thought was to edit the file and to change the pdb path and
to pad with trailing spaces that pdb fully qualified name to match the original name length. This, of course, assuming that new name is shorter than original name (to ensure that, on DevPC I should chose a ridiculous long directory name). Would this work?
3) Why is C:\DevLoc\IntAd.cpp prefered by debugger instead C:\AppLoc\IntAd.cpp if both exists? What can I do against?
Thanks

@ MaybeCompletelyW: If I set the symbol path, this means that also on DevPC that path will be used, is still a fixed path. The thing is that I need a portable package, so I can deploy the three files (cpp, dll, pdb) in the same folder, whichever
it is. The problem is that the dll is deployed on several AppPC's, on each one in another folder, on each one could be another version and I need to be able to debug in the dll on each AppPC without rebuilding the dll there. I thought about setting symbol
path like $(PathFromSysVar)\IntAd.pdb but it seems to me that in dll file the path is still explicit and full.

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc?

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

Comparing files in a folder with those in another folder with multiple subfolders

is there a non-terminal tool that i can buy that will do the following?:
i want to compare the files that are nicely sorted into nested sub-folders and sub-sub folder in /one/ folder with those that are sitting - in bulk - in another folder.
effectively i want to then /delete/ the duplicated files in the /bulk/ folder and sort the remaining files - the ones that are not dupes - in with the files that are already sorted. i don't want to delete the files that i already filed obviously and I only want to add the files that are not dupes.
i'm dealing with pdf's in this case.
TIA

It does folder sync -- and there are quite a few other folder sync tools out there. But that's not what you asked.

That's not folder sync'ing. I doubt you'll find an app which does that out-of-the-box.

Greetings. Can you please tell me why a bookmark is not always saved in the chosen folder? Also, Firefox crashes shortly after opening, periodically. (Both of these problems have been happening with different versions for sometime now.)

The bookmark problem occurs when I am creating a bookmark. When it occurs, the page is saved to another folder that was recently accessed, and random other folders' names are changed to the same name as the folder where the new bookmark was incorrectly saved.
The browser crashes only shortly after I open it, and I am closing a tab.

Bookmarking with Ctrl+D will bookmark to previously chosen folder.
'''Bookmarking with the bookmark star''' will bookmark to "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder (default), unless you have modified behavior with an Extension. The "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3880/ Addbookmark Here2]" extension has some [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/addbookmarkhere2.txt options] that might be confusing and are optional for those who are looking for old behavior.
 Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.
Please post only one question in a post, people looking for answers are going to be confused when looking for answers to either problem.

How do i download 15 photo folders to my ipad. it only lets me download one. if i try download another folder, it deletes the previous folder.

how do i download 15 photo folders to my ipad. it only lets me download one. if i try download another folder, it deletes the previous folder.

You need to select and sync them in one go. Photos that you sync from your computer can't be deleted directly in the Photos app, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync - so you've effectively been telling iTunes to replace the folder that you've just synced with a new folder

Setting Apps for another domain machines in SharePoint 2013

How do I set Adobe Reader XI so that a saved pdf will be saved in the last folder saved?

When I save a group of PDF files, I want them all saved in the same folder. How do I configure so that each fille will be saved in the last folder that was used to save, rather than having to browse for the save folder each time?

I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.
