While importing, how do I save the file name with the artist in it?

Currently when Itunes imports any cd, it imports it with the song name only, and put it in a folder with the artist name. I would prefer the tracks to be named 'Artist - Song.mp3'.
Any idea how I can do this? It's driving me crazy. I need to rename all the imports with the artist on the file name.
Thank you!
I have itunes 6

Anyone have any suggestions for this problem? I have the same issue. I have iTunes for Windows, so Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes is not an option.

    With your presentation open, click on each movie element and read the name in the Metrics Inspector > File Info.

  • Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

    Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
    thank you

    Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
    Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
    It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
    How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
    How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
    How will the script recognize the year of publication?
    For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
    Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
    Best of luck.

  • How to obtain the file name of the cached file

    Hi All,
    I am using JMF to play a MP3 file from an HTTP link and I need to know the file name of the locally cached file. I found that I can obtain the cache directory using Manager.getCacheDirectory() and I can see the cached file there but its file name is changed.

    I once had a similar task for creating a webpage that I only use on my computer--a webpage that accesses PDF's and SWF's font previews from a list of fonts as "a href's".  What you must do is utilize the power of the command line, whether on a Mac on a PC or on Linux, Linux being the most powerful (although Mac IS Unix).  You must utilize variables, variable replacement, and then a command to print out the results of a "for" or "while" loop to a text file which will be your HTML file with each individual link automatically built into the HTML code.  You will have a list of 50 links.  If you are simply looking for a GOOGLE type functionality where you click on "Next" and "Previous" you will have to dig deeper into variable replacement--this I don't know how to do yet but there are books for command-line shell interpreters.  One shell interpreter is called "bash" (born-again shell) and there is a book on the market which gives a detailed example of how to replace variables in a shell script.  Again, I don't know how it works.  I will try to learn this at a later time when I am more seasoned with the basics of shell scripting.

    Thanks keiron

    We cannot know. These kinds of things are operating system errors with stuff getting blocked due to insufficient permissions, security tools interfering, network errors or whatever. Since you mentioned none of that, it's an "Ask your mom..." thing at this point, but if you provide more details, someone might be able to figure it out.

  • How to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    how to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    Within Aperture you have Images, which are constructed on-the-fly from two files (the Master and the Version).  You get an image-format file _only_ when you export an Image.  You select the file name (usually a scheme) when you create an image-format file (that is, when you export).  Look under "Aperture→Presets→File Naming" for built-in Presets.  You can, of course, create your own or customize any provided.
    The Preset is applied to only the file newly created by your "export" command.  It is not applied to the Image in Aperture (unless you rename your Versions or your Masters).

  • How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

    hi all,
    how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
    Regards

    Found the solution for this.
    First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
    In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.
    Thanks for the posts

  • How to not append '.PART' to the file name of the currently downloading file, and just download the file with its normal filename

    In Windows, when Firefox (I'm currently using 7.0) downloads a file, it appends ''.PART'' to the file name of the currently downloading file and just renames it to its original file name after it finishes downloading.
    I sometimes like to watch a currently downloading video file, so it will be better if Firefox just downloads the file to its actual filename (like what Opera does), so I can easily double click the incompletely downloaded file and watch it with the video player assigned to that file extension, rather than the awkward ''Right click -> Open With -> Choose Default Program'' route with .part files.
    Does anyone know how to set Firefox to do this?

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox and prevents Firefox from renaming the .part file.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

  • How can I edit the file name of the home page?

    How can I edit the file name of the home page?
    Gr Ammani

    I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
    When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
    This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
    Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
    Thanks,
    Emelia

  • Finding the file name with Regular Expression

    Hello All,
    I am having some requirment to find the file name for the input provided parameter.
    In my program i am having an input parameter for file name. This contains both the file name and file stored location.
    Example : C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\xs234fs\Desktop\TEST_123_44.txt
    From the above example string i need to find only the file name that is TEST_123_44.txt by using Regular expression.
    Please let me know how to get this.
    Thank you ver much in advance.
    Thanks,
    Feroz.

    Hello,
    If you have attached an F4 help to the filename input param, in that you can use the FM: GUI_FILE_SAVE_DIALOG.
    In this there is a return param FILENAME which contains the name of the file.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR P_FILE.
          CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_FILE_SAVE_DIALOG'
           EXPORTING
             window_title            = TEXT-001
             default_extension       = p_extens
             default_file_name       = ls_deffile
             initial_directory       = ls_initdet
           IMPORTING
             filename                = ls_filename "This contains the filemame
             path                    = ls_path
             fullpath                = ls_fullpath
             user_action             = ls_usaction.
    Else if you have hardcoded the filename in the input field you can use rthe FM: PC_SPLIT_COMPLETE_FILENAME to split the filenames into different components

  • In mini bridge, is it possible to view the file name and the rating at the same time?

    Hello,
    In mini bridge, is it possible to view the file name and the rating at the same time?
    Thank you.

    if you know when a new image arrives and you can retrieve that new image file name ...
    Well, that's precisely my doubt, how can I know the file name? Is there a property/method for it?
    function loadImages() {
    for (var i:int=0; i<imagesNames.length; i++) {
    var imgLoader:Loader=new Loader;
    imgLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,imgLoaded);
    imgLoader.load(new URLRequest(imgPath + imagesNames[i]));
    function imgLoaded(par:Event):void {
    trace(par.target,par.target.content,par.target.content.name);
    Output window:
    [object LoaderInfo] [object Bitmap] instance160
    [object LoaderInfo] [object Bitmap] instance159

  • Not to display the file name in the browser bar.

    Hello,
    Merry Christmas to all,
    Is it possible not to display the file name in the browser bar?
    Like say, when we write www.rediff.com, the index page name is not displayed.
    Likewise is it possible for any other page too.
    What I want is not to display any of the page name for the whole application.
    Whichever page is requested the page name should not appear in the address bar of the browser.
    How will I do that, what logics should I apply?
    Please suggest,
    Thanks,

    first, what does this have to do with Java?
    second, no; in order to display something, the browser needs to know where it is. and if it knows, then a user can find out too. maybe you can make it not show up in an address bar sometimes, but that really achieves nothing

  • Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script?

    Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script? I wrote entries to a generic log file and would like to include the script name.

    Okay, So What you can do is
    1. Read get the version from your  database and redirect it to a text file(SQLCMD outout can be directed to text file using -o option or windows redirection operator >)
    2. Now you can read this value from the text file either inside a batch file or a powershell script and decide what operations you can do.
