ID should automatically copy a file in the folder of links

I had this idea that there should be a feature in InDesign that automatically copies the file in a folder.

Sometimes it's really frustrating to get the file and manually copy to the folder of your project links. It would be so easy if you would have only to search for the file when investment he and the ID would automatically copy the file to your folder of links projects. Of course it insists that there is any function to define a project and a folder for it, possibly a name. I think that this would save a ton of time when you have to do a book or some other large publication. I don't know if there is this kind of feature somewhere or the ID 5. It would be a good feature or not?

In recent versions, it is there already. See wheel of the links Panel menu.

You can also package it a file to make a copy and collect all the necessary links in one place.

    Hi could someone help me with this problem.

    I tried to import pictures to destination Macintosh HD or my external hard drive but it continue to go out with the same message "could not copy a file at the location requested. (114) items 1-100: articles 101-114.

    Interestingly, it was working fine up until yesterday.

    I tried restarting computer, I have the latest version of lightroom, I use Mac Os x Yosemite 10.10.4

    Thank you very much

    Hi josepht,.

    Looks like your destination folder does not have a full read and write permissions.

    Try to set the destination as a specific folder that contains all the permissions on your local or external drive, then, check.

    Kind regards

    I JUST bought this new macbook pro and Lightroom installed, imported 2 lots of pictures, but all of a sudden he kept denying my imports with "could not read the file" or "couldn't copy file at the location requested.  Help, please!

    Your use of the word "files" (in the plural) still makes me believe that you have not checked the permissions on the folder that is appropriate (in the singular).

    You must determine the Destination of the Lightroom Import dialog window Panel and see which folder Lightroom is really tr6ing to copy photos in (which may have been accidentally changed and is not what you may have used in the past) and change the permissions to write to this folder.

  • you have to copy a file to the root directory...

    IM using winscp to copy a netapp host utility, but it must be copied into the directory "root" and run it from that directory.

    Of course, using winscp, as I can only log in with a user account that I created in esx and not root. How to copy a file to the directory root?

    That's what the Solution says to do, does that mean that I have to copy the files in the root directory?

    Utilities of the host needs to the environment of the root, or by logging in as "root" or by switching to the root with su - environment

    Installing the utilities of the host in the root environment by running the command: su -

    You can use root - as long as you allow root ssh access - what is advised.

    Another alternative is to download Veeam FastSCP (free) and use it - with this you can authenticate with your user account non-root, but you can elevate your privileges specifying the root account. It is the method and the tool I use. You'll have to excuse my lack of terminology Linux

  • Move the file in the folder of the same name in AppleScript

    I had a problem with the script below. Basically, on the execution of the script, I want to create folders based on the name of the file and move the files in the files of autocorrelation. However, at the minute, that I'll have to choose the folder in which the script should run.

    Folder to choose a folder

    say application 'Finder '.

    located fileList to the name of every file in Folder with name extension is "m4v".

    end say

    the value point text delimiters to ".".

    Repeat with dittos in list of files

    get each text element of dittos

    masterFile defined in the point 1 of the result

    say application 'Finder '.

    create a new folder to Folder with properties {name: masterFile}

    move (each file from the folder Folder whose name contains masterFile) will cause

    end say

    end Repeat

    Ideally, I would like it to run automatically, but the folder is on an external hard drive. (\Volumes\Lacie\Movies). and I had problems to use the POSIX and 'alias' to properly re-create the path of the file desired.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Hello

    You can try something like the AppleScript script which is a simple shell script wrapper.

    set d to (choose folder)'s POSIX path
    do shell script "/bin/bash -s <<'EOF' - " & d's quoted form & " 2>&1
    cd \"$1\" || exit
    shopt -s nullglob
    for f in *.m4v
    do
        m=${f%.*}
        [[ -d $m ]] || mkdir -p \"$m\" || continue
        mq=$(sed 's/[^[:alnum:]]/\\\\&/g' <<< \"$m\")   # quote meta characters for regex
        find -E . -depth 1 -type f -iregex '.*/'\"$mq\"'.[[:alnum:]]+$' -print0 | xargs -0 -J% mv % \"$m\"
    done
    EOF"
    

    For example, given that you choose/path/to/directory in the folder - source

    Input state:

    /path/to/directory/abc.m4v
    /path/to/directory/abc.txt
    /path/to/directory/abcd.m4v
    /path/to/directory/abcd.txt
    

    Status of the output:

    /path/to/directory/abc/abc.m4v
    /path/to/directory/abc/abc.txt
    /path/to/directory/abcd/abcd.m4v
    /path/to/directory/abcd/abcd.txt
    

    Briefly tested under OS X 10.6.8 but no guarantee of any kind. Please make sure that you have a full backup of the original files and directories before you run this kind of script.

    Good luck

  • In Windows Explorer. A dated file say 12/02/2000. When you click the folder, the files in the folder bear different date. Why is it so.

    ORIGINAL TITLE: I use Windows xp.

    I use Windows xp. In Windows Explorer. A dated file say 12/02/2000. When you click the folder, the files in the folder bear different date. Why is it so. To update the files, we should see the dates of the files instead of the dates of the folder. right? Why is there such a difference?

    My copy of Windows XP works the same as yours.  Apparently the date folder is not updated when the content is, that fact make some sense as the folder itself is not updated when new content is created in the it.

  • Manually remove the iOS App files in the folder "Mobile Applications" on a Mac.

    In my eagerness, trying to save valuable disk space, I deleted all the files (40 GB) in the mobile apps on my mac. This folder has accumulated over 900 files app over the years. I am currently using only 160 apps on my iPhone. I deleted all the files (and emptied the Recycle Bin). After having to remove it, I was unable to download, only the applications that I use currently on the phone (160 of them), in my iTunes again (from the app store in iTunes). This is because iTunes App store thinks that I have already downloaded these applications; where I have deleted just manually in the Mobile Applications folder.

    After reading on the web that it is a mistake, I got cold feet and began a restoration of my time Machine to all 900 app files back.

    I started the process of restoring time Machine is because the thinning app is NOT allowing me to transfer my iTunes on mac purchases. I first thought I can "put" just the 160 apps from my phone, Mobile Applications to iTunes folder. Now, I realize that I can do is not "transfer purchases". I am on iOS 9.2.1 (6s iPhone Plus) and OS X El Captain (10.11.3) (Macbook Air).

    Moreover, I have a PDF file with a list of all the files in the Mobile Applications (900 application files) folder. I did it using an application called Print window. So I did not have a detailed list of all the files (apps) that I never downloaded. This is so that I can download the Apps on my iPhone directly (from the cloud) in case I need an app on my phone, in the future

    Critical how's this for keep the files in the folder of Mobile Applications on my Mac? In which case I have to restore my iPhone, applications will only download from the Cloud? If the answer is Yes to this question, I can go ahead and delete all the files in the folder of Mobile Applications manually to recover a good amount of disk space?

    I hope I'm clear in my question and description.

    Thank you!

    You have more need to keep a local copy of the apps. Any application that you do not have at the time of a restoration is downloaded from the cloud provided that it is always available. You can view your list of 160 apps for everything you'd be really sad to lose and keep a copy of those. You don't necessarily need in the library. As long as you have the file .ipa somewhere you can add new in your library at a later date.
