How to change default paths in the Finder

Hello world

I would like to create a partition on the hard drive to separate the BONES of my personal data (documents, pictures, movies, music, etc.).

How can I change the paths by default for Documents, Images, Photos in the Finder so that they "point" the the new structure in the other partition?

Thanks for any idea!

Mathieu.

I don't know much on El Capitan. You used to be able to do with symbolic links that look like aliases, but are certainly not aliases.

Some of these things you can do with the applications themselves. iTunes (and probably all) allow you to store media or even your entire library in a different location.

  • How to change default settings of the browser to the installer?

    I want to roll Firefox like standard software to the company that I administer, but we have a lot of things that runs on IE plugins, IE it must therefore remain the default browser, and users simply press 'Yes' when Firefox is opened the first time and then complain when they can't open the internal links. Is there a way to turn it off to ask if there is a default browser? The cck Wizard, I checked, but it did not offer this possibility. Is there a registry key or file where I could change this option before opening?

  • How to change default destination for the files to be imported?

    How can I tell LR to import to a new destination disk? I found a similar issue for LR 3 a couple of years, that says in the import dialog box choose the destination. This doesn't seem to be there now. In any case, I want LR to import into the new destination all the time, not only as a one-off. My HD is full and I can't keep moving the files manually. Thanks for any help!

    You can change the import (copy, move, add...) path at the top of the import dialog box.  When "Add", the destination panle is hidden, because it means that you come to 'Add' descriptions of the photos to the catalog and do not touch the pictures.

  • How to change default unit on the 11g database

    Hi all

    If I set my article:
    VACHAR2 (8) USERID -> by default, name of USER VACHAR2(8 BYTE)
    How can I change the default BYTE char as follows unit
    VACHAR2 (8) USERID -> by default, name of USER VACHAR(8 CHAR)


    Thank you very much

    NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS will affect the default value in the future.

    If you want to change the definitions of the tables or columns previously created, you will need to change these individually.
    You could write an alter table cript dynamic to change all that by looking at the CHAR_LENGTH and CHAR_USED columns in USER_TAB_COLUMNS

  • How to change default layout for the implementation model?

    The new layout model is great, but how can we use it to create a new default layout?

    At this point, the new "beta" model of implementation system and is parallel to the existing system of maps & Layouts.

    You can duplicate the drawings in the new system, but the old designs are still available.

    New models of provision system has it's own card by default, select and modify as you wish. Change the name of this card if you like-, but note that when you look at the map, the map background has a special icon, much like a box with blocks just fall into it. The 'catch all' icon indicates the card used if no mapping rule applies.

    The new system of models of provision is not having a card of "Default" truly sitting silently behind the mapping rules of how the old maps & Layout don't.

    The last mapping rule is and displays the icon 'catch all '.

    You can drag rules up/down to change the order of application, and there is a "catch all" icon at the top of the column mapping that you can drag and drop on a rule to force it to the bottom of the rules and set it as the capture all the rules.

    The new system has a couple of new approaches, we are all learning.

  • How to change each color of the illustrator vector object in 2013 of PowerPoint?

    But I want other options...

    There is no all.

    Illustrator and MS-Office share not all the graphics features of construction at the file level. There is no universal edit-ability between the two.

    .. which is the best export (eps, emf, or svg), then insert a vector file into PowerPoint?

    If your Illustrator illustration is vector of 100% and contains no live effects, complex gradients, blends, etc., the first thing to try is copy > paste special > enhanced metafile.

    Otherwise, SPE may work, or you can use the pixelation in PNG. Personally, I do not consider export raster format Illustrator to be a stable workflow method, so I'd be inclined to use Photoshop as an intermediate step: Illustrator > Save As PDF > open in Photoshop > save in PNG. Just my preference.

  • Configuration of the Simulator. How to change default command line?

    Hello

    BlackBerry Java plug-in

    How can I change default command-line for the Simulator?

    I want to delete/keep-lcd-on = true parameter because he throws:

  • How to get the default path of the data of a table space file

    I used below the sql statement to create a table space:

    CREATE A TABLESPACE DATAFILE AAA BBB SIZE 10 M AUTOEXTEND OFF...

    Notice, I do not give a full path instead of a file name, and then ask questions relevant to tables

    get the full path of the data file, assume that it's path below:

    d:\oracle\...\BBB

    So I don't think that there is a default path that oracle can use it to create the data file. My question

    is how to get this default path before creating a table space.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    I did similar simulations for you, then it could be seen easily:

    SQL > Show parameter db_create_file_dest

    VALUE OF TYPE NAME

    ------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

    db_create_file_dest chain

    SQL > SELECT NAME, VALUE OF V$ PARAMETER

    2 where lower (name) = "db_create_file_dest;

    NAME

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    VALUE

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    db_create_file_dest

    It has the value NULL. Then where my datafile is going?

    SQL > create tablespace TEST datafile 'test01.dbf' size 10 M;

    Created tablespace.

    SQL > select file_name

    2 of dba_data_files

    3 where nom_tablespace = 'TEST ';

    FILE_NAME

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    /U01/app/Oracle/product/12.1.0/Db_1/DBS/Test01.dbf

    When you check the alert logs, it will not show you the location of the data file. It will tell you what exactly you ran.

    ..

    ..

    Completed: drop tablespace test whose content and data files

    create tablespace datafile 'test01.dbf' size 10 M TEST

    Completed: create tablespace TEST datafile 'test01.dbf' size 10 M

    ..

    ..

    You can not SQL user * more? Well, I would say that, when you run the CREATE TABLESPACE command, is where you run the command:

    SQL > select file_name

    2 of dba_data_files

    3 where nom_tablespace = 'TEST ';

    FILE_NAME

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    /U01/app/Oracle/product/12.1.0/Db_1/DBS/Test01.dbf


    So, you should get the location of your data file. Alternatively, you can run the query in the parameter $ v so that you know your default data file location.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you.

    Kind regards

  • How to change default browser from Yahoo to Google on Android?

    I wonder how to change the default browser on Firefox from Yahoo to Google. I personally prefer Google for research and who want by default if it is possible

    Hi devinat1, if the battery-dot-3 icon does not appear, it means that Firefox has detected a button menu 'material' on your device. In general it's near the home button below the screen. If you can't find a menu button down there, do you want to talk about device you have? Perhaps one of the volunteer support can figure out what is happening.
