• Batch rename files that have non-consecutive numbers?

  I have a folder with about 100 files of images that carry the non-consecutive numbers. Is there a way to rename them all to add something after the numbers (and before the file type extension) without changing the numbers?

  Example: If I select 111019.003.dng and 111019.007.dng, is a way to batch rename the 111019.003_tk.dng and 111019.007_tk.dng?

  Of course, simply batch renaming it w / a sequence number would change to 111019.003_tk.dng and 111019.004_tk.dng. That is not good.

  I realize the easiest way around this is to name them properly the first time, but I'm not the photographer.

  Hope that makes sense and thanks.

• script to rename files with similar names?

  Hi, people.

  I have my RAW files in a single folder and my derivative images (e.g., PSD, TIFF, JPEG) in another.  The derived files share only the last four digits of the names of RAW files (for example, the RAW file is named 100826 - 14278.CR2 but the JPEG version is only named 4278.JPG).  In addition, the derived files have no metadata.

  Is it possible to use a script to match all derivatives for the last four digits-based RAW files, then change their file names to match the names of RAW.  And, if possible, can bridge waterfall then metadata less camera EXIF data in the RAW files for derived files?

  Thank you!

  -Greg

  P.S. My knowledge of scripting languages stops with cursive handwriting, so please, be gentle.

  Copy and paste the script in Extendscript Toolkit
  This utility is located in the proper folder: -.
  PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe utility
  MAC: /Applications/Utilities/Adobe utilities

  Start Bridge - Edit - Preferences - Startup Scripts - Click "reveal my Startup Scripts.
  This will open the folder where the script should be saved.
  (It's just a text file with the extension .jsx)
  Close and restart Bridge and accept the new script.

  You will now see a new menu item 'Metadata' select 'Rename and add metadata' in the menu.
  It will now give you the option to select the folder of raw files and the folder of derived files, it then do rename it and add metadata (I hope).

  It may be preferable to set up a couple of test files and see if it works well.

• Problem with rename file with applescript

  It seems very stupid to ask, but I am VERY new to the apple scripts and trying to learn it.

  I get an error with the following script. I'm setting up of automator to take a file placed in a folder with folder actions implemented. But I get an "unknown error".

  It should take the file and rename it to the content of the text in the Clipboard and preserve the extension.

  tell application "Finder" to activate
  tell application "Finder"
     set theExt to name extension of theFile
     set the clipboard to «class ktxt» of ((the clipboard as text) as record) # remove styles from the clipboard
     set theNewname to the clipboard
     set name of theFile to theNewname
     set name extension of theFile to theExt
  end tell
  

  You don't need to activate the Finder unless you want to come to the fore and, as you are already down a file in a folder, I think it's already there!

  I don't really understand your workflow to understand what you put into the Clipboard, so it would need to be a tweak if this script does not work for you.  While you can set the name explicitly extension, I just built the new name, including the extension in the newName variable.

  NOTE: I put a test in preventing the name change goes forward.  If you don't want that, remove the otherwise.  As always, make sure that you have a backup!

  say application 'Finder '.

  the value theExtension for name extension of dittos

  oldName put to the name of dittos

  set newName to (Clipboard) & "." & theExtension

  display the dialog box 'Are you sure you want to rename' oldName & "to" & newName buttons {"Yes", "No"}--delete this line and two others below if you do not want to check

  If the button returned of the result is 'Yes' then - delete

  the value name of dittos to newName

  end If - remove

  end say

• How to move/rename files directly from 5 first?

  I need to better organize my files, now they are in too many files and file name structure is incorrect.

  Can I manage the directly from first without having to tell the new position as when you out first? just as you can to the Lightroom library, move to rename files with...

  I tried rename, but it seems that different in my project window, the actual file name remains the same...

  Thank you

  No, changing names in first stays with first.

  Changing names and move files on the hard drive's files go offline.

  Rename will give trouble when rebinding unless you know excactly what is what.

  So in other words plan before starting a project.

• Batch Rename causes error with 1000 files

  If I rename a lot with more than 1000 files or more I get an error to rename the lot.

  I have maybe 6 sets of difference in poses of model with digital unique names.  I select all the files and rename it with the name of the model and named in order with a series of 3 numbers.  What I get is a mix of images in games with names that act as duplicates with one (1) in some of them.

  If I have less than 1000 files I have no problem.

  Everyone knows this?

  I have not yet tried, but wouldn't it better to use a number to four digits of the sequence as a three digit goes that 999?

• batch file to copy the file with the extension of the date - does not work in Windows 7

  Under XP, I got a batch file to copy files daily and rename them with the date, as:

  Project_Tracker_Copy.mdb

  TO

  Project_Tracker_Copy_2012_01_17.mdb - it would make the current format YYYY_MM_DD day

  next day, through Planner, he would run the batch and I'd end up with

  Project_Tracker_Copy_2012_01_18

  Here is the key part of the DOS command:

  Ren S:\archive_2012\Project_Tracker_Copy.mdb Project_Tracker_Copy_%date:~6,4%_%date:~0,2%_%date:~3,2%.mdb
  

  A batch file that runs hidden in Task Scheduler. [Task Scheduler starts the vbs & the vbs starts the batch file.

  This example shows how run the batch BackupCoreFiles.bat - the only point the vbs to packaging is so he can run hidden like Task Scheduler it would be otherwise in the default command window & that can be a distraction, if you work on something else at the time.

  Set WshShell = CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")

• Rename presets with the file name

  Hi guys,.

  I currently using presets to change my image but the name is so angry, he does not follow any order naming, just a total mess. I am using a batch program rename to rename this (filename), then import it to lightroom and realize that the name has not changed.

  "I Googled it and look like I need to change the ' title = ' with the text editor to change the name in lightroom. But I will have hundreds of presets and cannot change each of them manually more (past 4 hours to change the name of the file).

  Are these anyway that I can change the name of the fastest presets? Any program that correspond to the "title =" with the file name?

  Thank you

  User presets, click with the right button on the preset in the develop module, and then choose Rename.

  Batch renaming presets of in Lightroom is not possible.

  

• Bridge CC on Win7 64 problem with batch renaming.

  Subscribed only to the Cloud environment and download Bridge CC. Set up and saved a batch rename model ok, but the names of the selected files do not change in the same folder. The folder is located on a second disk, but I doubt that this would have caused a problem. I wonder if bridge CC must be connected in the cloud using it and if browser script security restrictions would cause a problem? No matter which illuminate my path?

  This anomaly occurred when a system has been implemented with two physical hard drives. Each was bootable, but it will take a tour in THE system BIOS before startup, which drive to boot from the value. Regardless of the car was chosen would then be called by the BIOS of the c:, the other being the D drive. So when Bridge CS3 disk 1 started as the C: drive it should have been not aware of the other side of the bridge on the D: drive now. If disk 2 with bridge CC has been started, it would then become the C: drive, making the drive 1 drive D:. Once more drive 2 bridge CC is not aware of the version of D: drive on disk 1.

  The original problem may have been caused during the installation of the bridge on the second disc, which could search all drives during the installation you are looking for install previous, not only the startup disk. To avoid this the second disc will need to be taken offline (dismounted) while the latest version of the bridge has been installed on the remaining disk. It's like having two drives C: containing all required files, but only have one mounted at the same time. However, changing the code of the road so there isn't that one C: drive can both be used together with the only designated as C: initializing. The other would just look like a data reader.

  This configuration has been a trial in the production of a fast recovery system in a hostile environment. Because this configuration is no longer in use, I will finish this original question because it is no longer relevant.

• Rename a batch of files in LR5

  I imported a batch file with the name of the file to garylittle... nave

  I need to remove the © garylittle of the name of the whole of the batch. F2 does not seem to work for me. I had before the bridge used because it has a much more well-developed file name faciltiy which has no LR.

  I guess one of my questions is "can I use Bridge and did recognize renameing in LR?

  BTW, there are hundreds of these files so you can see I can't do each separately, one and the same if I did, the F2 does not work well.

• Renaming of files with the same file name.

  I got image files files that have been renamed properly with a file name

  1234

  and they must be 1234.jpg.

  When I open the file in Photoshop, the name of the file says 1234 .jpg.

  Can someone help me with an action or Automation (not good at writing, it, any help is appreciated) who could help me to rename these files properly without the task to open each file?

  Thank you!

  You have Finder > Preferences > advanced (on the Mavericks) configured to display file extensions?  The ".jpg" is perhaps already there.

• compare files with the same structure of channel / rename channel(-groups)

  Hello

  I have several groups ch with many channels in the file of each measure.

  Now, I need to display/compare Channels 2 or more files of measures in a chart. (channel 'speed1' to the file 'measurement1' vs 'speed1' to the file 'GCA2' channel)

  So I import 2 files in the browser und have the same structure of string twice. To distinguish between the channels of the two files I want to rename the channels by script and add the file name of the channel-group name.

  Is this a common way to compare measurement data in files with the same channel names and structures?

  In the affirmative. How can I make a script?

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Ski

  Hi Ski-Fahrer,

  each channel has a name of the institution.

  Data.Root.ChannelGroups ("Name" or Index). Channels (Index or "Name"). Name

  You can assign a new name like this:... Name = "NouvNom".

  I don't think it is necessary to rename the channels. If you do not forget the files. If you want to rename something I only rename the ChannelGroups by adding a date or a serial number.

  Kind regards
