Using tags in finder with teammates?

I have spent a lot of time tagging my documents inorder for my teammates to get a better workflow. But now it hit me, will they be able to see my tags on their computer? Our team work with dropbox and I wan't them to easily be able to find all linked resources for our campaigns etc.
So my question is: will they be able to see my tags and work with them in the finder sidebar? If not is their any way around this? I also want to know if this also applies to comments Ive made for the files in the file info.

Hi Cmdr,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Yes, you can select multiple files in Finder, and then follow the steps in the article you mentioned to add tags to those files:

All the best,

What is the best way to search for tags in Finder?

There are a lot of articles out there written about Tags in Mavs. All of them cover how to apply tags, but there is hardly anything written about searching and finding files.
Now, does anyone here actually use tags in Finder? How do you search for them? Did anyone ditch folders or stytematic file-naming?

I am currently using and experimenting with Tags. Searching, finding, and managing your tags is pretty straight forward. On the far left side of any Finder window, you have a selected number of Tags predetermined and an option for "all tags." If you click on this link, it will take you to a menu where ALL tags in use are listed. Change the name and color for them just as you would any other file name (I have a usb mouse, so it's a right click for me).
If you used the "labels" feature (color-coding documents and folders), you have used tags; its the same idea, but now you define a word as what you are sorting by.
To search for a tag, I either use the in-Finder search or Spotlight (which may be the same, but I am not sure--I am also a newer Mac convert and am still learning the ropes). I have started to organize my schoolwork solely by tagging it, but I have run into issues where I have "Exam 01" for one class and need to make a second "Exam 01" file for another class (I created different tags for each class).
I will say that, since I started to only use the minimum amount of folders, I have noticed somewhat significant speed improvements in startup times and normal use. However, this coincided with the release of Mavericks so I do not know truly whether the folders help or not.
One of the things I both love and hate about tags is that you can search across multiple folders (or drives in my case) for documents matching the tag in question. When I download classwork from our school's website, I tag with the appropriate class name, and then move to external hard drive (yeah, I am paranoid). Unfortunately, if I then don't delete the copy inside the "downloads" folder, the document will show up if I try to list all of my "Class" tags.
Best of luck,

How to numberformat when using sql:query alogn with c:forEach JSTL tags

Is there anyway to format the numeric values returned from the database when using <sql:query> alogn with <c:forEach> tags
Here is my jsp code
<sql:query..../>
<c:forEach var="row" items="${queryResults.rows}">
<tr>
<td><c:out value="${row.COL1}" /></td>
<td><c:out value="${row.COL2}" /></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
Col1 values are numeric without any formats Eg: 1000, 10000, 1000000 etc.
how can i format them to 1,000 , 10,1000 , 100,000 etc

It is polite to mention what your answer was. These posts are not just here for you to ask questions, but to be used as a resource for other people to find answers. Saying "I solved it" with no details helps noone.
I presume you discovered the JSTL <fmt:formatNumber> tag?

Use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it

I am trying to use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it.
(This is in a Function.)
Let's say ParmIn_Look_For has a value of 'black dog'. I want to see if
ParmIn_Search_This_String has 'black dog' anywhere in it. But it gives an error
Syntax error on command line.
If ParmIn_Look_For is just 'black' or 'dog' it works fine.
Is there some way to put single quotes/double quotes around ParmIn_Look_For so this will
look for 'black dog' ??
Also: If I want to use the option of ignoring white space, is the last parm
'ix' 'i,x' or what ?
SELECT
REGEXP_INSTR(ParmIn_Search_This_String,
'('||ParmIn_Look_For||')+', 1, 1, 0, 'i')
INTO Position_Found_In_String
FROM DUAL;
Thanks, Wayne

Maybe something like this ?

test@ORA10G> with t as (
2    select 1 as num, 'this sentence has a black dog in it' as str from dual union all

Problems with JSP - using tag library with Weblogic 8.1

I am getting the following error when I try to run a web application called "regain":
/searchinput.jsp(2): Error in using tag library uri='regain-search.tld' prefix='search': cannot find tag class: 'net.sf.regain.ui.server.taglib.MsgTag'
probably occurred due to an error in /searchinput.jsp line 2:
<%@taglib uri="regain-search.tld" prefix="search" %>
The classes that the .tld file points to are in the web applications WEB-INF/classes directory and I have put this path into my classpath environment variable (running Windows 2000 Server).
This application runs fine on Tomcat.
I can't not figure out whether is error is masking another error or what. I've tried using JDK and Jrockit for my web app - no luck.
Please help! Thanks!

anyone? :/

Where can I find a mapping of the Mac Powerbook version number (e.g., 3.1) to the dates (e.g., "late 2007") that Apple uses for indicating compatibilty with OS upgrades?

There were no PowerBooks made in 2007. By then Apple had switched over to Intel and they were making MacBook instead.
If the MacBook is what you really want try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook

Where do I find the "Maestro" font in Photoshop? It used to be included with all the other fonts. It is a set of musical symbols. Thanks.

Where do I find the "Maestro" font in Photoshop? It used to be included with all the other fonts. It is a set of musical symbols. Thanks.

The only way I know to achieve this would be to create three separate bookmarks on the Bookmarks toolbar and click on a one that you want to load in the current tab. You can also try to right-click the Back arrow and click the entry at the bottom of the list to return to the first page.

How to launch a finder with password requested, not using sudo in terminal

Hi,
I would like to have a finder with password requested in Mac like we move the the driver in /System/Library/extensions folder to trash by command lines. Using "sudo delete" in terminal will have the DOS-style and not good-looking for users. That is, I would like to have the GUI with password by some commands(or scripts) before I removing the driver.
Thanks for your help.
Jason

You shouldn't be doing anything with system files. Those don't belong to you. If you need to install or update software in /Library, create an installer package. It will run as root, after prompting for administrator credentials.

Hi Stephan,
this solved placing both animation on one page. Make sure all your fonts are called out in the <head> section like for example:
<script>var __adobewebfontsappname__="dreamweaver"</script>
<script src="http://use.edgefonts.net/quicksand:n3,n4:default.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Dreamweaver does this automatic for you. If you are having a font conflict I recommend under command (if you are using dreamweaver)
Clean up the font Tag and add only the ones that you are using again, sometimes they accumulate.
Good Luck.

Use Keychain to find or store password with Safari

Hello Guys,
I wonder how I could use Keychain to find my forgotten password on hotmail with Keychain. Do we need to activate something? I'd really like to know.
At least, do you know how to set my Safari, so I can store my passwords?
Thanks!

provided you actually ever stored the password in the keychain, open keychain Access, locate the keychain entry for hotmail, double-click on it and check the box to show password. you'll have to enter you keychain password at this point which is your login password by default.

Having problems using ion tape express with itunes cannot find the song on hard drive

Having problems using ION tape express with itunes. The song is on hard drive as temp1 not the name of the song. And I have problems playing it in itunes
because it says it cannot locate the song'

Then correct the name of the song or point iTunes to the new file.
Issues with restoring should be directed to the manufacturer of the backup software/device... this is not an Apple or iTunes issue.

Is it possible to tag a pdf with 'reject', so when it loads into Bridge, it will be pre-rejected?

Is it possible to tag a pdf with 'reject', so when it loads into Bridge, it will be pre-rejected and not view (so long as 'show reject files' is unchecked in Bridge)? - Please see screen shot.
We're wanting to have all pdf's initially set, so they don't view in Bridge, until the 'reject' tag is then removed.
Any help would be great! Thanks.

Well, not possible directly because the Acrobat interface doesn't allow changing Bridge's ratings and labels. But as Omke Oudeman showed over in the Bridge Scripting forum, they are stored in the XMP metadata, where "Reject" seems to be an xmp:Rating of -1. Thus you may be able to add this bit of metadata within Acrobat Pro by using the Append... [XMP template] command -- assuming you can come up with an XMP template, and can find the command buried in the interface (in Acrobat 9 it is behind the Additional Metadata button on the Properties/ Description tab, and then from there under Advanced). Another route might be via Javascript. Either way, before investing much time you should consider that most software won't see labels and ratings you add to the XMP metadata, and, as Omke mentions in that thread, their rendering seems somewhat fragile even in Bridge.
Another route might be adapting a metadata category already available in Acrobt's interface: Keywords, say, "Approved" and "NotApproved". (If you can't touch the Keywords, maybe you could re-purpose another of Acrobat's categories; and of course my suggestions are not related to Acrobat's stock stamps "Approved" and "Not Approved," a different kettle of fish). Keywords might suffice for you to filter views in Bridge, but if you really want Bridge to show files with "Reject" then they must carry that tag. If neither an XMP template nor an Acrobat Javascript serves, I imagine a Bridge script could apply "Reject" to files with the keyword NotApproved. Of course, for any PDFs whose status changes you'd need to adjust both the Reject (xmp:Rating -1) and the keyword; perhaps another script could un-Reject and change the keyword to Approved in one step.

Using Places in iPhoto with aperture photos

If we have a picture in aperture with the City and Country Name attribute filleds, this picture in iphoto will not have the info. So, iPhoto no uses the EXIF City and Country Name fields.
are there any solution to use the exif info filled in apeture with Places in iPhoto?
Thanks.

I am not familiar with Aperture so I don't know what it can do or if any helper programs/plug ins will do with Aperture.
However there are other Geotagging programs out there. One that is very easy to use in conjunction with Google Earth is Graphics Connverter. With GC, you can open Google Earth, find the location of you want to tag your photo with, then switch over to GC and use the menu item to geotag the selected photos (you can do many photos at once) with the currently displayed Google Earth location. In addition there is a menu command to simply type in coordinates if you do not want to use Google Earth. GC can also tag using GPS data logger files.
GC will write the coordinates to the EXIF data and I have done it myself on both normal JPGs as well as Olympus RAW format. I know when I geotag with GC and then add the photos to iPhoto, iPhoto sees the tags just fine and show their locations. I assume Aperture would do the same.
iPhoto can tag photos as well, but it only writes the data to the database and doesn't actually add the info to the EXIF of the photos themselves until you export the photos out of iPhoto. Do to do it with iPhoto is a multi step process that would require adding them to iPhoto, tagging them, then exporting them back out of iPhoto. I think CG would be an easier solution.
