Use LR to clean up and make a new folder

I have imported all photos and removed duplicates or useless photos. Can LR copy all the photos in the catalog to a new folder on the harddrive, so I can remove all old folders and keep just one cleaned up folder.

Try creating a new, empty folder and then adding that folder in to Lightroom.
Then select all your other images (select all the folders in grid mode, then select all images) and try dragging them to your new, empty folder. That should move the images at the OS level.
Try it on a small subset first just in case.
Good luck!

  • Does a factory reset delete all and make the new copy of OS completely fresh?

    Hi all, so I forgot my book's passcode and I reset it from the Recovery mode. All is fine, but I was wondering does a factory reset delete all and make the new copy of OS completely fresh? All the chains, registries and all, just like a fresh copy of Windows ? Or did I mixed up all...
    P.S. Strange after the factory reset and the system's downloading I got this as apps (of course some are downloaded by me)

    does a factory reset delete all and make the new copy of OS completely fresh?
    Actually, the "delete all" part is done by your using Disk Utility to erase the partition, as part of your clean install.

    Macs use an application called Migration Assistant to copy material from the old Mac to the new one. The macs are connected together and each runs Migration Assistance and the user chooses what stuf to copy onto the new Mac.
    Unfortunately I do not know how to do this between pcs or between a Mac and a Pf or even if it's even possible.

    Csound1 What Ive been trying to explain is that I have been running bootcamp, I open the app where the first screen is the introduction, i hit continue, the first time I select "download the latest windows support software fromm Apple" then I return and instead select "Install Windows 7." Then hit continue. The third screen is where I "Create a Partition for Windows" I set Windows to 80 gigs then hit INSTALL. As stated before Bootcamp cannot find the install drivers saying "The installer disc could not be found." My windows software is on a USB drive not a disc, I tried using a virtual disc reader to make it appear that the windows software was running on a disc, still no luck. What I would like to know is how to install windows on bootcamp.

  • A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

    There is no other way you can do now. Actually, you don't need to create a new Apple ID account, you can change the Apple ID from old email account to other email accout easily by all the steps below.
    1, Open iTunes > iTunes Store > log in old Apple ID > Click on your apple ID on the right hand side on top > choose account > Apple ID > Edit
    As long as you only change your Apple ID, then all the old apps are still under your new email account as well as you can keep downloading new apps.

    Hey,

    Can´t download apps, because it´s wrong. What can I do? Please help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can delete your account at settings > iCloud, scroll down and tap delete account. You can then enter details of any new account you create.
    Note. The purchase of apps are done through an iTunes store account not your iCloud account. If you are having issues downloading apps, it isn't related to your iCloud account.

  • Make a New Folder from the search field

    Tried searching all over, can't find the answer to this simple question.
    How can I use Automator to make a new folder with the same name as what I am searching for in Find Finder items?
    Basically I am working with large image sequences that are all being rendered in one folder, but then need to be sorted based on their Prefixes before an underscore. I'd love to not have to copy what I'm searching for into the New Folder field, too.

    I would particularly like to organize downloads by renaming them, and then they automatically get filed away in the correct folder.
    You might achieve something similar by using AppleScript. The example script below, while not meant to be a definitive solution, might provide a guide for you to work with.
    The script specifies paths to various existing folders, in this case Music Downloads and Movie Downloads. Once files passed to the script meet the required criteria ("if characters 1 through 5 of theName...") then the files get moved to their appropriate destination folders.
    To run this script as written you would first need to create a Music Downloads and a Movie Downloads folder, making sure to specify the exact paths to these folders, and replacing "username" in their paths with your actual short name. You would also want to rename your files so that they meet the required criteria: music files might be renamed music_1, music_2, and so on, while movie files could be named movie_1, movie_2, etc.
    The script below can be copied and then pasted into your AppleScript Script Editor to be saved as an application droplet. Once saved, you can drag and drop single or multiple renamed music or movie files, separately or in combination, onto the the saved droplet's icon. If all goes as expected, the music files will be moved to the Music Downloads folder while movie files get moved to the Movie Downloads folder.
    The script was written so that a warning dialog is issued if files passed to it don't meet the renaming criteria. Also, if any duplicate files exist in any of the destination folders, a dialog will appear offering the option to a) replace the item, b) don't replace but continue moving non-duplcates, or c) quit altogether.
    My preference would be for the AppleScript-only droplet approach. But if you'd like to use Automator and have the script available through a right-click contextual menu, you can create this single-action Automator workflow: *Run AppleScript* (from the Automator library). Simply remove the script from its "on open" command handler and insert the remaining code between the Run AppleScript action's default "on run" command handler. Then, from Automator's File menu choose "Save As Plug-in" > Plug-in for: Finder, with a name such as "Put Away" and you should be set.
    +The script:+
    *on open*
    *tell application "Finder"*
    *set theseItems to selection*
    *repeat with i from 1 to the count of theseItems*
    try
    *set thisItem to item i of theseItems as alias*
    *set theName to name of thisItem*
    *if characters 1 through 5 of theName is {"m", "u", "s", "i", "c"} then*
    *move thisItem to "Macintosh HD:Users:username:desktop:music downloads" -- Specify exact path; replace 'username' with your short name.*
    *else if characters 1 through 5 of theName is {"m", "o", "v", "i", "e"} then*
    *move thisItem to "Macintosh HD:Users:username:desktop:movie downloads" -- Specify exact path; replace 'username' with your short name.*
    else
    *display dialog "Only items which meet the criteria can be moved." & return & return & "The item " & (ASCII character 34) & theName & (ASCII character 34) & " cannot be moved" with icon caution buttons {"OK"} default button "OK"*
    *end if*
    *on error*
    *tell me to activate*
    *display dialog "An item named " & (ASCII character 34) & theName & (ASCII character 34) & " already exists in its destination folder. Would you like to replace it with the one you are moving?" & return & return & "Replacing the existing item will overwrite its current contents." with icon caution buttons {"Quit", "Don't Replace And Continue", "Replace Item"} cancel button "Quit" default button "Don't Replace And Continue"*
    *if button returned of result is "Replace Item" then*
    *tell application "Finder"*
    *if characters 1 through 5 of theName is {"m", "u", "s", "i", "c"} then*
    *move thisItem to "Macintosh HD:Users:username:desktop:music downloads" replacing yes -- Specify path and replace 'username' as above.*
    *else if characters 1 through 5 of theName is {"m", "o", "v", "i", "e"} then*
    *move thisItem to "Macintosh HD:Users:username:desktop:movie downloads" replacing yes -- Specify path and replace 'username' as above.*
    *end if*
    *end tell*
    *end if*
    *end try*
    *end repeat*
    *end tell*
    *end open*
    The above script worked for me in testing. Good luck.

  • How can I Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder

    I apparently moved or deleted my iCloud folder and keep getting this message Use the iCloud Control Panel to pick a new folder.  How do I do this?

    I have/had the same problem, just started this morning. I tried a system restore to a known good date. I still had the problem so I rolled restored the system to the latest.
    Thinking that it might have something to do with priviliges, I reviewed my user account and noticed it was set to "Administrator". On a whim, I switched my user account from administrator to "standard user" and I'll be... the issue dissapeared. I have no idea why. But I thought I'd pass it along.
