Search into folders and subfolders

I must realize a procedure ColdFusione that effects the
search into folders and subfolders
on the file System that simulates the Windows API, specially
the function PathMatchSpecW().
How can I realize it?

Thanks for the information,
I must realize an optimistic search of folders and files.
For example in "C:\App\" I have 3 folders Fp_1, Fp_2, Fp_3.
Gives the run "C:\App\Fp_*" I must get the list of the 3
folders.
I use this code:
<CFDIRECTORY DIRECTORY="C:\App\Fp_*"
NAME="MyDir"
SORT="name ASC">
<CFTABLE QUERY="MyDir">
<CFCOL HEADER="NAME:" TEXT="#Name#">
<CFCOL HEADER="SIZE:" TEXT="#Size#">
</CFTABLE>
I have not a record!
Can you write a correct example code?

Search multiple folders and muiltiple files and combine to single file

I want to search multiple folders for muliple files and combine to single file name. The files I'm searching have same format, but where named
differently in each of there processes. Now I want to combine based upon -SearchFor .. I'm having a problem with -Filter $SearchFor
Code:
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations,[String[]]$SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\",-SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt",-AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"

I think you might want to use -Include instead of -Filter. Your -Include parameter accepts wildcards, i.e. *.docx or *somstr.txt
Your command to actually append the content should be:
Get-Content -Path $File.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
You had $Files.FullName which might behave unexpectedly, if at all.
Your actual command has several issues.
Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\" -SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt" -AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"
You had commas following the lists of locations and searchfor terms, did that even work? Without seeing your source files or your target file I can only advise you so much, but ideally you would import-csv and export-csv. Depending on the contents,
you may be able to get away with get-content and out-file though.
I hope this post has helped!

Does bridge search all folders and subfolders by default?

Many documents and folders are not being found with Bridge's search feature. What do I need to do to have Bridge A) find files in specific folders and B) search newly added folders? Does bridge search every folder on my computer by default or just specific ones? If the latter, how do I let bridge know which folders it should add to its searches? THanks.

Bridge starts the search where you tell it and then moves down the dirctory tree. So if
your folder is above the start point it will not be searched.

Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file

I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
Example
root folder to start search
\\servera\sales
\\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
search for and create output file for. The folders to search
will somewhat be static.
Thanks.

I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
Laughlin posted are a great resource.
Function Search-Files{

$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\Server1\c$\Temp", "\\Server1\c$\Test1" -SearchFor "Install.cmd" -AppendTo "C:\Temp\Search.log"

How to Search Multiple Folders?

I am using a new machine with 10.7.2 Lion and I'm unable to do something I used to do on 10.4.11 Tiger, that is, search multiple folders simultaneously in Finder. To be clear, in a Finerd window, I was able to hit command-f and the current folder name would appear along with a button that said "Others." Clicking that would allow me to select any number of additional folders to include in my search. There isn't an "Others" button in Lion! What happened? Did the Lion developers get Lost?

Greg,
There's one way of doing this that's even easier than before.
Use a Spotlight Search, one of the best OSX features ever. Simply press CMD-space, and you'll get a small window. Type in your search criteria, and Spotlight will automatially list all of the hits on your computer - without even pressing enter.
If you're searching, say, using Safari, CMD-F will let you search for all the hits on the site you're on, and highlight them. Press Enter to cycle through the hits, if you have any.
Otherwise, use Spotlight for your system search needs.

How can I transfer/copy my entire iPhoto library from one iMac to another iMac whilst keeping all the folders and subfolders intact?

We recently purchased a new iMac for our office (8 GB memory, 2.7 processor, version 10.9.2) and we need to copy the iPhoto library from our other iMac (version 10.9.4) onto the new one. The photos are essential for our work and there are around 53,000 of them all organised into folders and subfolders and then the photos are manually ordered within the albums.
We have tried connecting the computers but when we tried to access the iPhoto library on the new iMac it says that iPhoto is locked and we do not have permission to view it. We updated iPhoto on the old iMac as we thought that might be the problem but the message still appears. We've been advised to use an external hard drive but we're worried that will corrupt the organisation of the library. We have also been told not to do it over AirDrop / the Server because of the sheer quantity of photos.
Any advice on how to safely do this would be much appreciated.

No idea exactly what you did
if you followed the instructions
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
then you have exactly the same thin on your new system that you had on the old
If you do something differently - like import the library instead of simply opening it - then it will not work
did you dimply drag the iPhoto library from the pictures folder of the old machine to the pictures folder of the new machine and then launch iPhoto on the new machine?
and to help it is important to use word correctly since that is the only communications method we have - in iPhoto folders do not contain photos - you view photos in events and you can organize them using albums (which view photos) and folders (which hold either albums or other folders - folders never have photos in them) so your description of the problem is not at all clear since it uses folders incorretly

I don't think you guys are hearing my question. I can see how to restore a single file or folder.
I want to restore ALL the changed or deleted files and folders since my last backup (but not the entire disk, that would be unnecessary)
Were all (or most) of the items in, say, your Documents folder, or your Music folder? If so, you can restore the whole folder via TM. That will put all sub-folders and files back exactly the way they were at the time of the backup. You just have to be careful to pick the right backup (date & time).
Or, if they were scattered through your Home Folder, you can restore that entire folder in the same way.
If you've made changes subsequent to that backup, however, they will be lost in the process. What you can do in that case is, restore to a different location, then compare the two folders, and drag & drop what you want. (To restore to a different location, select the folder in TM, then click the "gear" icon in the TM Finder window, and select +Restore <item selected> to ...+ and you'll be prompted for a restore location.)

Copy only files from folders and subfolders

I need a help.
I have issue with too long destination part, so I want to use some script or command, to copy all files (just files) from all folders and subfolders to one destination (one specified folder).
I don't need folders and subfolders, just files.
I have this issue on Windows 7 Professional.
Best regards

Try this batch file. It will overwrite files with duplicated names.
@echo off
set Source=d:\My Documents
set Dest=d:\My New Folder
xcopy /y "%Source%" "%Dest%\"
for /F "delims=" %%a in ('dir /ad /b /s "%Source%"') do xcopy /y "%%a\*.*" "%Dest%"

How do I stop creation of multiple folders and files while importing CD

I am such a dinosaur. All I want to do is load some CD's and play them on my computer. iTunes starts automatically, and,dispite my settings, it does not get track names before starting process. Further, although my settings are to the contrary, it creates folders and subfolders, and I don't want any. When I start the CD, iTunes goes through the long process as if each track were being saved, but if I eject CD, it is not saved. If I save it, iTunes goes through the whole long process again, and if I don't click "do not replace", I end up with duplicates of each track - just the track number in one folder, and track number with name in another folder. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Getting tracks names automatically doesn't always work first attempt. Making folders during ripping process is normal for iTunes. Set iTunes not to rip CDs when inserted, then when you are ready to rip you can start process. This lets you get the album info added before ripping.

What would happen if I turn off my backup and delete backup data From my device? Will it delete my music and everything for ever or just stay in the cloud but not on my device?

What would happen if I turn off my backup and delete backup data From my device? Will it delete my music and everything for ever or just stay in the cloud but not on my device?

If you have multiple devices backing up to the Cloud, you will see all of them listed. You would click on each device to change what is backed up from that device. You can then delete your individual back-ups.
Once you have all your settings to your liking, you can then go back to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, and click on Back Up Now (bottom of the screen) to create a fresh backup with your new settings.

How to get the Folders and subfolders collection in Project Manager

Hi,
I am trying to get the folders and subfolders collection in Project Manager, so that I will be able to loop through the collection and be able to create a project under the appropriate folder.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Bhanu

Anything you do without submitting to form has to be done on the client side (ususally by JavaScript) using data which has been send already from the server.
With JavaScript you can do quite a bit. You can download tables which don't necessarilly appear on the screen, loading them into JavaScript arrays by dynamically generating javascript. Then you can pick up events like drop-box selection and use these tables to chose what you do next (e.g. preloading other fields, setting drop box content etc.).
Or, you can cause forms to be submitted when actions like a selection happen without the user clicking a button. It's generally a matter of how much data you'd need to transmit.
Another posibility is to use a Java applet, which can generate requests to the server and handle the results as it chooses. That are a number of problems with that but occasionally it's the best solution.
What you can't do is to handle user input inside a JSP. The JSP has come and gone before the user even gets to see your form.

Closing all folders and subfolders within a window with one command

In list view, is there a way to close all folders and subfolders within a window with one command, instead of having to close each individually?
Thanks!

Thanks, all, for your feedback, but no cigar, yet:
- opening folders with "option" is possible but problematic
- none of this solves the question of closing all the folders and subfolders within a window in one shot.
Any better solution would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Copying folders and Subfolders with files using Promises WinJS

Hi,
I have app written in WinJS.
I want to copy a particular folder along with its subfolders and their files. I am so far successful with copying folders. Below is the code for the same.
app.CopyFolder = function (folder, destFolder) {
var replace = Windows.Storage.CreationCollisionOption.replaceExisting;
//console.log("create folder: " + folder.name);
return destFolder.createFolderAsync(folder.name, replace).then(function (newdest) {
return app.CopySubFolders(folder, newdest);
app.CopySubFolders=function(folder, destFolder) {
return folder.getFoldersAsync().then(function (folderlist) {
return WinJS.Promise.join(folderlist.map(function (folder) {
return app.CopyFolder(folder, destFolder);
Now after I have copied all the folders I need to copy their respective files. The problem is I am stuck,I get the files copied but I want to proceed ahead after all the files are written to their respective folders. Below is the code for the same.
app.copyAllFiles = function (fileList, destStorFolder) {
console.log('copyFiles Start...');
var promises = [];
var fileCopied = 0;
var collideOpt = Windows.Storage.CreationCollisionOption.replaceExisting;
return WinJS.Promise.join(fileList.map(function (file) {
return app.copySingleFile(file, destStorFolder);
app.copySingleFile = function (fileObject, destFolder) {
var promises = [];
var fileCopied = 0;
var path = destFolder.path + "\\" + fileObject.folderName;
var collideOpt = Windows.Storage.CreationCollisionOption.replaceExisting;
return Windows.Storage.StorageFolder.getFolderFromPathAsync(path).done(function (folderObjectOfLocalFolder) {
return fileObject.fileObject.copyAsync(folderObjectOfLocalFolder, fileObject.fileName, collideOpt).then(function (fileObject) {
console.log("copied single file:" + fileObject.name);
The problem is when i run the folder copy code and apply breakpoint for the success call back of
CopySubFolders(source,destination).done(/*my breakpoint*/)
The folders are created.
But when I try to breakpoint for my copyAllFiles,the files are created only when i pass the success call back.
Can anyone tell me what am i doing wrong? How can I proceed ahead only when all the files are written successfully.
Regards,
Ninad

Hi,
I tried the above solution but what i want is that the action of copying folders and subfolders along with the files should be done with promises and that promise should return only when all folders,sunfolders and their files have been copied. I want to
do it in this way because I want to perform certain second action only when all things are copied.
If I do it the as per the link the function runs in the background and my second action proceed aheads and may cause error if it finds some folder or file missing.
So I came up with following above code,first copy folders then copy. The copy folder works as expected but the files are getting copied only when the file copying code enters the success call back.
Can you please shed light on my code where I am going wrong.
Or is it ok to proceed ahead with the solution you mentioned at the link cause I dont want any runtime crashes.

Ninad

HT204655 Can I create folders and subfolders in the new Photos on my mac?

I've just started using the new Photos app in the latest Yosemite update on my Macbook Pro.
Until recently I was using Aperture to sort all my photos into folders and subfolders - I think they were called "events" or "projects" in Aperture.
In Aperture, I was creating folders like "1993", "1994", "1995" or "Best of My Family".
Then I had subfolders within those folders - things like a "Christmas 1995", and perhaps some subfolders within that like "Christmas 1995 at Home", "Christmas 1995 at Parents" as well as things like a "favorite 1995 pics".
And sometime non-date related folders - things like "Children as Babies" subfolder or "Parents on Vacations" subfolder within the "Family" folder.
These folders and subfolders seem to have been carried through to this new Photos app as "iPhotos Events".
But I dont seem to be able to continue sorting - like creating new subfolders within folders.   For example, in Photos I don't seem to be able to create an album within in an album.
Am I missing a trick here?
Is Photos unable to do this?
Or, is the community please able to suggest another alternative solution - like, would using the Pictures folder in Finder be better, perhaps in conjunction with DropBox instead of iCloud?
Or another photo organizing app that is able to sort folders and subfolders?
Thank you for your help in advance!

One way to create folders, subfolders, albums, is to make sure you have your Sidebar showing (menu - view > sidebar) and then use "Control + mouse click" on a folder you want to create a subfolder or album in to bring up the contextual menu.   You can also do these things in the upper right of the Photos window using the + icon but that always seemed to put those items in the top level of the sidebar so I would have to drag and drop them to the folder where I wanted them to go.
