Highlight one several files at the same time

I would like to highlight several files to delete at the same time. Through Windows highlight you or click on the first file with the mouse and click on the last file and everything in-between becomes highlighted for deletion. Is there a way to do the same thing with my Mac without clicking on each file individually?

OS X does not have an iota of code Microsoft Windows. Do not expect that it works in the same way.

  1. You have the choice on OS X. You can click and drag the file icons that you want to remove, then right-click on one of them and select move to trash.
  2. You can select the first icon in the file and then pressing the SHIFT key or order, select the following icons. Then click on any place in the trash.
  3. Step 2, but using the arrow keys for the selection of additional directional file icon.
  4. Combine [1, 2, 3] to add or subtract icons from file.

  • Delete several files at the same time

    Y at - it an easy way (simple) to remove several image and document files at the same time.  My sister downloaded hundreds of photos to my computer and I want to delete them.  I've spent a lot of time to delete individually and don't have not made much progress.  Is there a way to pick several at a time and remove them?

    See HairyFool response, and I would add the following. You can select multiple files in a folder by clicking on one and then by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on all the others you want, one at a time.

    After selecting several files, you can do what you want with them - all remove them, copy them, cut, etc..

  • Flattening several files at the same time?

    Dear Adobe experts,

    Is it possible to simultaneously flatten multiple files (in the comments on each separate file flattened)? Or is it possible to create a shortcut for the flattening of a PDF at the same time?

    I know of the Ctrl + Shift + X to open the preflight, and then from there I can flatten the file in use.

    I have a problem of efficiency because I have thousands of files. I've looked everywhere and know most of the Windows/Adobe shortcuts.

    Any help would be appreciated,

    Nice day

    PS: I use Adobe Acrobat Pro XI

    You can do it by using an Action (via Tools - Wizard of the Action).

    Create a new Action that runs this JS code and save the file and then execute it right on your files:

    this.flattenPages();
    

    Just an aside: treatment of thousands of files like this may not work in a single process. You'll probably have to do it in batches.

    From my experience, nothing more than 500 files at once is a recipe for problems.

    It seems that these downloaded emails would not have permission to delete.

  • which key to I use to delete several files at the same time?

    I know that this sounds like a stupid question, but I used to know the answer and now I don't remember. When you are in Windows Explorer or any program like this, there is a certain button you can hold down as you move your cursor to select multiple files. Then when they are highlighted you can delete or edit or move them or whatever all at once. I thought it was shift but it does not work for me. Someone must know, please...

    I'm not on my PC now, so I don't know where one would go, if she follows the computer that I use or if she goes to my login information. ??? But the response would be appreciated to the * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    • To select all files in file Explorer, select first one so you are assured that the component has the focus and then press on Ctrl + A (aka select all).
    • To select a contiguous block of files, select the first then hold down one of the SHIFT keys and click the last. All files listed in the meantime will be part of the selection.
    • Select (or deselection) random files, select one and then hold down one of the Ctrl key while clicking on the other files in the folder Explorer pane. By clicking on one already selected deselects it group.

    Open Acrobat Reader DC, navigate to the Edit-> Preferences-> General-> uncheck "Open Documents in the new tab in the same window.

    Now, reboot your system, when you open multiple PDFs that all will open in a new window so that you can easily compare.

  • How read datalog multiple files at the same time?

    Hello friends...

    can someone help me to show how read datalog multiple files at the same time?

    Here is the example of my case.

    I have 500 files in a folder. each file contains a waveform and its setting.

    and then I want to do a card spectral these files, because these files have been saved in the order.

    the point is to know how to read these 500 files at once? I made a program to read these files, but the program can read these files in one by one. So it is very uncomfortable to read 500 files one by one. can someone help me solve this problem? Thank you. I hope you can show me the program. Thank you again...

    Hi jojo,

    Well, in the range of functions daughter, you will find a function to list the contents of the folder. This allows to get the names of all the files datalog, and then use a loop FOR to read.

    No one is obliged to provide 500 names of files manually - that's why we use a programming language to let the computer do the stupid work

  • Several files with the same name.

    Cannot publish to Business Catalyst because of a fatal error, where it is said "why do we have several files with the same name?  The website and all its contents have not changed in more than a year with the exception of minor changes to the wording so unable to understand what the error is encountered. Are there not better misdiagnosed at one point less for the files in question.

    The problem is the result of a mixture of case-sensitive and case-insensitive between how files within the .oam are put into interaction with and what is written in the muse_manifest.xml file during a re - download full compared to an incremental download.

    If all .oam packages files are tiny and the original .oam were replaced in Muse with the all new tiny .oams, then you should select Upload: publish all the files in the dialog box Options. From there, forward publication of incremental changes should work without errors.
