?Select vi's from different folders

Hi!
From the function palette I would like to have user defined "Select a VI..."-like options
that shows the open dialog in a defined folder.
For example:
A user defined "Driver VI..." will open the folder where we store drivers (on a network drive).
Likewise, "Tool VI..." opens the folders which holds the tool VI's and "Project VI..." opens the folder
where the current project is stored. You get the point.
I hope that this can be done or at least solved in another way. I hope to get some help for this one.
This would speed up the "tree walking" considerable.
Thanks,

Sorry, but there's no way to bring up a custom dialog box. The closest you can get was my previous suggestion. The only other thing to do is try and find a utility that modifies the default file dialog box to incorporate a list of folders you have been to recently. (and you need one that works better than the one built into windows XP--it's way too slow to be useful).

Syncing Photos from different folders...?

I know it never worked in the beginning-but has someone found a way to sync photos not from only one folder but from different folders to the ipod?
something like a photo playlist...?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Inside this folder create as many other folders as you want (or drag and drop existing ones from other locations on your hard drive)
3 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the appropriate folders you just created. (not necessary if you are using pre-existing folders already containing photos)
4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?

How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?
I have a few folders of photos in my mac that I want to be on my iPad2. How do I go about on doing that?
It seems like I need to put all the folders into one folder and point iTunes to that main folder.
The thing is I don't want to copy them (waste of space) and I don't want to move them (my photos are organized).
So is there a way for me to import photos from different folders in my mac to my iPad2?
Thank you!
BTW... I don't use iPhoto.

Find software (which may not exist) to export them in a photo format (jpeg, tiff). IPhoto will not do it

How ATTACH multiple files from different folders in one ATTACH 'session'?

Hi,
In Mac Mail, I often have to attach 2 or 3 separate files, all from different folder locations on my hard drive.
This requires clicking attach, selecting file 1 and clicking OK, which closes the Attach dialog.
Then I have to do it again 2 times for each other file. oy.
Is there a way to Highlight multiple files in different directories (ala Command-Select...which doesn't work) before selecting OK?
OR
I've found that I can DRAG a file from the Attach dialog into the email and the dialog will remain open, only the file is HIGHLIGHTED in the email and , hence, gets replaced by the next file I drag into the email (or select by the normal method)....
Is there a way to drag that file#1 into the email and have it NOT remain highlighted, so that I can pick another file to add in addition to that one?
Thanks!

Ctrl + click on the songs you want to group - then right click and click get info and it will ask you if you want to get info for multiple items click YES then under album name it whatever you want and them songs will be grouped into 1 album.

Same procedure but hit SHIFT instead of CTRL.
Actually, it's right click or ctrl click, same as windows.

Image Sequences and Batch Processing: Can opening files from different folders as image sequences be set up as an action for batch processing?

I have an ongoing series of tasks that necessitates opening the contents of a series of folders as image sequences.
I'm used to setting up some fairly complex actions, including ones that are intended to be applied to all of the contents of materials in various subfolders, but for some reason I cannot get an Open-with-Image-Sequence-Checked action to set up in a way that will batch process correctly.
Complicating matters is that the file prefixes (i.e., the letters before the sequential numbers) and the folders will always have different names from the last time the process had to be carried out.
The steps I would like the action to carry out would be the following:
1. Open Subfolder 1 - that is, Photoshop shouldn't be looking for a specific folder. It's just *any* subfolder to the current parent folder.
2. Select first file in sequenced set of files.
3. Open as an image sequence.
4. Open Subfolder 2.
5. Select first file in sequenced set of files.
6. Open as an image sequence.
...rinse and repeat until Photoshop runs out of subfolders to check.
Am I asking the impossible?
Thanks!

I'll look around there, because I had posted something about this and was told to look here ps-scripts - Browse /Image Processor Pro/v3_0 at SourceForge.net
then this is the image here:
is the result I received. Granted I'm new to using scripts and actions for image processing large amounts of files.

How to Interleave photos from different folders to Create a Slideshow.

I have LR 1.4.1 and am trying to create a slide show from photos collected in folders marked by the day they were taken. In addition there is a folder loaded with jpeg Title Pages intended to be inserted to mark the beginning of a new day in the slide show.
I am having trouble figuring out whether I should be in Library to interleave all these photos and title pages or in Slideshow. I am not able to reorder or compile into a new order in any mode I can detect. Should I be in a Quick Collection or just a Collection or somewhere else to order all the slides. Should I be in Grid view or Loupe view? Can I see the order and alter it in the Film Strip perhaps? I need to be able to SEE the slides from a source and the resulting ordered slides for a slide show to accomplish this.
Has anyone had this problem and solved it? I tried to accomplish this in iPhoto with no luck. Is what I am trying to do outside the norm for creating slide shows?
Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Raymond Zachary

Ray,
It sounds like you tried to open a new catalog, not create a collection.
Go under the file menu and click open recent. You should see your old catalog listed. Once you have that opened, go through and mark all the photos you want. You can use color labels, or some nonsence keyword, like qwqw or any method you like. Once you have them all marked, be sure you have all photos selected, then filter for your keyword or color lable, or whatever you marked them with. Then select all those photos. Then go down the right panel until you see Collections. Click on the + icon. In the dialog box that opens, give your collection a name and be sure the box "Add selected photos to this collection" is checked. Then click OK. Now you'll have a collection of the photos you want to use. If you want to add any to the collection, you can just drag them into the collection name. Be sure you're dragging from the thumbnail, and not from the border around the thumbnail. If you want to remove a photo from the collection, just right click it and check remove selected photo from collection.
You can then take your collection, and reorder them anyway you like. And then go to the slideshow module and there you go.
Hope this makes sense.

Adding photos to an iPad from different folders on PC

Hi there,
Is there a way of adding another folder of photos that iTunes can sync from?
I have a folder called iPad Pix that I use to sync photos and pix and I have another folder that I want to sync from but I use that folder for work as well.
I don't want to copy those pictures to the iPad Pix folder because I don't want duplicate files.
Is there a way to get iTunes to sync from another folder without deleting the first lot of pictures?
Thanks,
Maz

Hi Lawrence,
Thanks for that... I thought of that, of adding my iPad Pix as a subfolder of Pictures and syncing to Pictures but I remember many versions of iTunes' ago that I could add folders. Can I still do that or has that option gone? If the option doesn't exist then I suppose I will have to use folders and subfolders.
The thing is, I have iPad Pix as one folder then another folder of Pictures with various subfolders within it. It's a couple of those different subfolders I want to sync as well as iPad Pix and I don't want the hassle of moving and syncing specific folders etc... it really would be easier if I could sync more than one folder at the same time. Hope it's possible...
Thanks,
Maz

Audition shuts down when dragging in files from different folders.

Whenever I try to drag in music files (in WAV format) from two separate files, Audition shuts down. It stops responding. How do I fix this?

I suspect changing the audio driver won't make a difference, though it's certainly worth a shot. Generally, when something like this occurs in certain editing modes, but not others, it's related to the Workspaces documents.<br /><br />It's pretty simple to verify: Open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\3.0\ and move or rename the two Workspaces folders. (Note: AppData may not be visible by default depending on your configuration, but you can manually append it to the location bar and it should become visible.)<br /><br />After moving these folders, launch Audition. Audition will rebuild them to the defaults. Let us know if the problem still occurs.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Durin

Selecting multiple images in different folders/projects?

What is the most efficient way to go about this? On occasion I will export a web gallery using the FlashAlbumExporter. Simple if the images are in the same project. But sometimes I need to pull different images from all over the place. I created a new project and made duplicates of my versions (learning more about Stacks and Picks in the process) and dragged the duplicates to the new project.
Perhaps I should have given each version a unique keyword and created a smart album?
Any feedback appreciated.

That is the way I do it; works great, and is repeateable.

Locate missing images from different folders?

This is how I screwed:
Made a collection in LR, with original files on external hard drive
Created new folder on internal drive and copied the original files there (within LR) Collection now refers to the files on internal drive.
Accidentally erased the folder on internal drive (from Finder) and emptied Trash
Now LR path refers to the non existing folder on the internal drive. The original files are spread over hundreds of folders based on date on the external drive. Any suggestion on how to make LR locate them will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Just realized that LR moved the files instead of copying, so they're gone... Going the file recovery path. Thanks for you involvement ManiacJoe!

Capture specific files from different folders with USMT

Hi Team,
I am looking for some xml that will just capture specific files and restore it as part of refresh TS. Any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks.
Regards,

You need to create a custom xml which can be used with capture (scanstate.exe) and restore (loadstate.exe) of any specific data you want. This xml file needs to be modified to create rules for files to be captures, example:
<script>MigXmlHelper.GenerateDrivePatterns ("*
[*.pst]", "Fixed")</script>

Comparing photos from two different folders...

Is there a way to have side-by-side two images from different folders? Say, one from 2008 and one recent? Lightroom 3.6...

Sure. In Grid mode, select the two folders that the images reside in. Click on the first folder and Ctrl-Click (on PC) on the second. Then find and select the two images in the Grid. Then invoke the compare feature.

Syncing photos from different iPhoto accounts

On my iMac, my wife, daughter and I all have our own accounts on the machine which means we have 3 different iPhoto collections and you can's see one from the other.
Any way we can sync all three iPhoto collections to a single iPad?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:

4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

Need help using multiple classes in different folders.

Hey everyone.
Im trying to make a trading card game, in Java. Each card is going to be a class derived from a main card class (called card). The problem is that each card is going to be in a different folder based on the set and card number. (ex. card 001 from set 02 would be in "game/02/001/")
I found this is a real good way to organize the game since there will be new cards all the time and players wont have all of them. Is it posible to call classes from different folders, and if it is how do I do it?
-Thanks to anyone who answers

The problem is that each card is going to be in a different folder based on the set and card number.Why don't you simply add two attributes to your Card class:
cardNumber
setNumber
Or better, have a Set class with attribute:
number
and a Card class with two attributes:
number
set
