Searching for a group of items, and moving them

Hi.
Is it possible in 10.4.6 to search for a group of items all at once, and have them moved to a specified folder?
For instance, say I have eleven different images that are scattered across 6 servers. I want to search in one interface for them all and put them where I want, in a new location.
Is that possible?
Thanks,
Scott

Your question is a bit general and vague. There is more than just a small amount of material to explain. What have you tried? What is your level of experience with Java? What is your specific question?
Try posting the code that you've attempted (preferably between [code] [/code] tags), as well as any errors you might be receiving. You may also want to try a tutorial.

  • How can I use a script to search for a list of filenames and copy them to another directory

    Hi all,
    I'm quite new to using scripts etc and wondered if anyone could help? I've only ever modified preset folder scripts so making one from scratch is a bit new to me, but it would also be great if anyone else has done this before if they could pass on there script and ill modify to suit my needs.
    I will be recieving a tab delimited file containing a list of 150 - 200 clips every day and I need to pull those files onto a hard drive.
    All of the files are housed in one folder on the internal media drive and I would like to be able to have applescript / automator / whatever  either look through the tab file and then move the files in the tab file from the internal media drive to the external transport drive or I copy and paste the filenames into the script and run it and the script moves the files from the internal media drive to the external transport drive.
    Hope someone can help,
    Many Thanks

    There are no other files in the source video root folder nor are there any folders within the subfolders.

    Search for Main Group Not all Subgroup
    My illustrator project may have 5 main groups, which may all included 100 subgroups. I would like to search for main group without having to search through all subgroup, because too many and too long for the script.
    For the moment I have given a name to all Main group but the process is much too long.

  • How to create a dynamic menu for each group of responsibility and  user

    Hi
    I am using Jdev 11.1.1.6 and new to ADF, my application require to populate menu which would be different for different groups of user, and the user in each group would have different submenu depends on their responsibilities assigned to each one of them.
    so on the top level would be menu_top_item1, menue_top_item2
    |-->submenu1_1 |-->submenu2_1
    |-->submenu1_2 |-->submenu2_2
    also the menu would need to be on_mouse_over to show the submenu items or collapsed back.
    any idea what would be the best approch? or is there any example around?
    thanks a lot

    You can use ADF Security to control access to menu options.

  • Searching for pictures by both date and keyword

    When I have the calendar tab up and a date with pictures is highlighted, when I go to select a keyword the calendar goes away and then I am back to my library. How do I search for pictures by both date and keyword?
    Thank You, Margaret

    Margaret:
    You can use a Smart Album to do the job. Just use the criteria:
    Keyword is "xxxx" and Date is "dd/mm/yyyy"
    Be sure to select All in the Match menu.
    Or you can use the text find box at the bottom in this undocumented way:
    1 - click on the library icon and in the text box type any character.
    2 - select the library icon again and type Command-I
    3 - in the Find window (the same as what you get for a Smart Album) set your criteria: Keyword is "xxx" and Date is "dd/mm/yyyy" and set "All" as the Match criteria.
    4 - hit the search button and those pictures will show up in the thumbnail window.
    5 - when complete clear the text box at the bottom of the window to get all of the photos back.
    Either way you'll get those photos with the keyword and particular date.

  • Deleting Items And Moving Items Automaticly

    This is probably a rookie question, but I am new to ID. What is the best way to setup an ID document where if I delete a text box and photo in one row, that the rest of the rows on the pages after move up automatically and line up like I had the deleted row? Or does this have to be done manually?
    Reason I am asking is I have a document which is a directory of employees with a description on the left hand side, photos on the right hand side, and I have to remove employees who have left the company. These documents are pages and I would hate to have to manually move everything after that deleted employee.

    If it turns out that nothing is threaded and the images are not anchored, and you don't have some sort of database from which to rebuild, my personal plan of attack would be to make a copy of the file, then cut the first image frame and paste it into the start of the first line of text in the listing.
    Select the anchored frame and go to Object > Anchored Object > Options... and change the type to "custom" and make the x-coordinate relative to the page or margin and the y-coordinate realtive to the Line. Drag the image frame back to its correct postion in the right column.You may have to revisit the options dialog to get the y-offset where it needs to be. Make a note of the settings.
    With it still selected, open the Object Styles panel and check to see if a style is assigned. Most likely, it will have [No Style] because that's the default for any object drawn with a frame tool. If that's true, create a new Object Style which should include the posioning information for anchored objects, as well as any fitting options you need. If there's already a named style assigned, edit the style to include the anchored object settings. Apply the style to the selected frame.
    If the frames you checked above had [No Style] assigned, and you are using a version of ID that has Find/Change for objects, you can search for objects with [No Style] and change to the object style you created. If there was already a style, this step is unnecessary. The good news here is that even though you are adding anchored object positioning information to potentially every image inthe document (even those that have nothing to do with the listings), unless the object is actually anchored those settings will have no effect whatever. The bad news is exactly the same thing -- you won't see any changes to the employee images until you go through the file and manually cut them and paste into position inthe first line of the listing (and when you paste there they should appear back where they belong). Move the empty frames too, just in case a image is added later and to be sure the empty frame is deleted along with the corresponding name when that gets removed.
    Hard part is now done. Next step is to go to Rorohiko,com and get their TextStitch script (http://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/indesign-downloads/textstitch/). Run the script, delete all but the first two pages of listings, and then delete all but the first lisiting frame on the first page. Resize the frame to fill the page, then pick up the overset and hold Shift as you click at the top of the next page to autoflow the rest of the listings back into the file.

    Hi
    I have tried your suggestion to use the "AEGP_GetLayerSourceItem", but for some reason I always get null. Here is the code (assume I do this with a valid AEGP_compH compH):
    A_long numLayersL;
    ERR( suites.LayerSuite8()->AEGP_GetCompNumLayers(compH, &numLayersL) );
    A_long i = 0;
    AEGP_LayerH layerH(NULL);
    ERR( suites.LayerSuite8()->AEGP_GetCompLayerByIndex(compH, i, &layerH) );
    AEGP_ItemH itemH(NULL);
    ERR( LayerSuite8()->AEGP_GetLayerSourceItem(layerH, &itemH) );
    itemH is always NULL
    Any suggestion as to why is this happenning?

  • How do I find/search for a particular app or genre of them

    How do I find/search for a particular app or genre of them in Maverick app store...thx for any help...byeGeorge

    Just go to App store and type in what you want in the search box.   Say, apps for word processors, Anti virus apps, Games apps and so on.   You could also go via Google with a similar approach and lastly, the system divides up particular subjects in any event ...  under the term Categories.
    Having said that, the system isn't a mind reader.   It's up to you to refine what you've  been presented with.

  • How do I design my posters on Photoshop touch for ipad, to be A0 and export them to creative cloud at the same size???

    How do I design my posters on Photoshop touch for ipad, to be A0 and export them to creative cloud at the same size???
    every time I do it it comes out at a fraction of the size and not even an A size...
    Please help

    A0 is pretty big if you go at a high DPI for printing. It's about 10000 x 14000 pixels at 300 DPI.
    PS Touch can handle about 12 Megapixel image imports (which is about 4000 x 3000 pixels). PS Touch, interestingly, can create 4096 x 4096 pixel projects from scratch.
    Adding to that, PS Touch always exports at 72 DPI. Take note that this is probably due to tablet hardware. Tablet hardware is "getting there" but it still has a ways to go before it matches its desktop cousin.

  • Can i use time capsule for back up my movies and watching them with my bravia tv

    can i use time capsule for back up my movies and watching them with my bravia tv.
    i mean can i use this for external hard disk drive to back up my movies and watching them with tv that has a lan port or wi-fi technology.

    Only if the TV is a media player.. the TC is dumb as a board router with a hard disk.. there is no DLNA which I suspect the TV requires.. you can get a player like the WDLive and it will play movie files from the TC to the TV.. remember the TC is nothing but a file store.. no servers .. no nothing.

  • How to update PO Price only for a single line item and not other Line Item

    Hi
    My requirement is not to update Price of PO from PIR if the Final Invoice Indiactor is not set and it is not a return PO. I am trying to do this using
    BAPI_PO_CHANGE to update price automatically from Pricing record using
    POITEM-PO_ITEM = '00001'
    POITEM-CALCTYPE = 'B'.
    POITEMX-PO_ITEM = '00001'
    POITEMX-CALCTYPE = 'X'.
    The price gets updated for the line item 1 as well as other line item which I do not want. Please can you tell how to restrict that.
    Is it possible to restrict through configuration if this indicator is set there should be no price update. I tried to check in ME22n and if I update the condition item by pressing the update button the other item price also gets updated.
    Thanks

    Timestamp is date and time together in one field..
    Search for data element TIMESTAMP.
    If you are getting this in your table.
    If you are getting time and date in different fields then you can use the function module
    given below....
    CALL FUNCTION 'DELTA_TIME_DAY_HOUR'
      EXPORTING
        t1            =
        t2            =
        d1            =
        d2            =
    IMPORTING
       MINUTES       =
    Then you can convert minutes into seconds..
    Function module credit to BrightSide it works....but only it will give difference in minutes

  • Change Commission-value for Commisson-Groups on item/BP-level

    Hello,
    at the moment it is possible to change the defined commission-% of an commisssion-group for specific items and BP. I was told by the support, that this is not the correct way according system definition and that's the reason why all this individually defined values are overwritten if we update for example BP.
    We need this "wrong" behaviour, that allows us to change a commission groups %-value individually, because in our case for specific items or BP this value differs from the groups standard-value but we need to assign the commission-group to an BP for our commission reports.
    Best regards,
    Thomas

    Hi,
    According to your description, there are several list views in your list, there is a textbox control which holds the “Single Line of Text” type of data in your custom
    form. When users click the “Add new item” button in one of the existing list views, you want the textbox control in the custom form to be populated automatically.
    By default, when user clicks the “Add new item” button in a list view, the URL of the custom form page will contain the name of that list view page, thus, a workaround
    which requires custom code can be like this:
    After the form page loaded, we can extract the name of the list view page from the URL, then populate it into the textbox control immediately. This can be achieved
    using jQuery.

    get URL parameters of current page using jQuery:

  • AE CC 2014.1 error : internal verification failure (Unexpected match name searched for in group)

    Hi,
    First of all, forgive me for my basic english.
    I'm a creative cloud suscriber and recently update AE with CC2014.1.
    I worked for several months on a project, but since last update, on some composition, i have an error windows pop in who say :
    "After effects error: internal verification failure, sorry! {unexpected match name searched fo in group}
    (screenshot here -imgur: the simple image sharer )
    i have look everywhere but i can't get any info on this issue, and there is no support for after effect.
    I can't afford to loose all those hours of work, may some of you have some information / solution about that ?
    Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope !
    Thank you for your time

    Well, you don't have to update in knee-jerk fashion, do you?  Is it absolutely mandatory that you have to have the Newest Thing On The Block from Day 1?  You weren't so busy that you couldn't  spare the time to do the update, weren't you?
    You used the word, "we", which indicates more than one individual is running the same software.  Is it not possible to devise a strategy where the updates take place one at a time, so you can observe the potentially-adverse effects?
    Oh, you can do it, but I don't think you WANT to do it... either because you like to have the newest thing, no one in the shop is willing to work a little later to do it one machine at a time, or you simply don't have a plan in place.  Sorry if that's harsh, but it seems to me that early adopters without an eatrly adoption plan put their livelihoods at risk by jumping on the bleeding edge.  Adobe, Apple, Avid, Autodesk, Whoeveritis...  changes in software contain bugs, and you don't know what those bugs are.  Would you rather be the one EXPERIENCING the bugs or just reading about them?
    Okay, now I'll step down off my soapbox.
