• How can I copy the list of names of files in the finder and set the Clipboard filenames separated by commas?

  Hi guys, I was wonder if anyone can give me a hand with a script.

  I need to be able to paste a list of file names of the files as follows:

  0001.jpg 0002.jpg 0003.jpg 0004.jpg

  At the moment, if I select the files in the Finder, copy to the Clipboard and paste them in TextEdit, they are like this:

  0001.jpg

  0002.jpg

  0003.jpg

  0004.jpg

  I found a similar but slightly different script and I don't know how to change it. Here it is:

  Define extension_list to {"jpg", "" JPG","jpeg","JPEG"}

  the value cbNames (Clipboard text) paragraphs

  Set csvNames to {}

  the tid value delimiters to point to the text of the AppleScript

  the text value of the AppleScript point delimiters ".»

  -now, make a list of names without extensions

  Repeat with the names in cbNames

  If the point 2 of the text names is extension_list then

  copy of text 1 of names at the end of csvNames

  end if

  end repeat

  Journal csvNames

  -now the filenames as comma CONCATENATE string separated

  the text value of the point delimiters AppleScript «»

  csvNames value cross-as text

  the text value of the point AppleScript delimiters tid

  There is an easier way. Open a TextEdit document and paste the list in. Place the cursor at the end of the first item and drag it to the start of the second.

  

  Press on + command + c to copy and then command + f to bring up find it. Press command + v (do not click in the first search field). Check the 'Replace' box, click in the field replace, and then type a comma and a space.

  

  Click 'All' and then 'done '.

• Open a folder in the Finder?

  Hello

  I had the script below in a .jsx file, it was located in the "Adobe Photoshop CC 2015/settings presets/Scripts" and it worked perfectly.

  Now for some unknown reason - it won't open the file hardcoded in the finder

  If something has changed in a previous update, which makes this useless script?

  Any ideas how I now just open a folder in the finder, directly from a script?

  Thank you in advance.

  var f = file ("Applications/files/Photoshop\ Tuts\ and\ Plugins Plugins/Photoshop\ /'");

  f.Execute ();

  If this is what has been returned then it should work.

  var f = Folder("/Applications/Files/Photoshop_Tuts_and_Plugins/Photoshop_Plugins");

  {if (f.Exists)}

  f.Execute ();

  } else {}

  Alert ("file has not exist\nPlease check your way!");

• Can I make the data in a cell in numbers link to a file in the finder?

  Numbers will allow me to create a link to email or an Internet link, but apparently not to the files in the Finder. Anyone has a suggestion to make this happen?

  AFAIK, you can't link to a local file, except via the script, which is awkward.  You can put a file in Dropbox and copy / paste the public link to this file in connection of numbers. By default, clicking the cell number will download the file from Dropbox, which may or may not be what you want.

• Using the field of comments on the files in the Finder

  If you select a file in the Finder and use the "Get Info" feature, there is an editable field called 'comments '. If all the data is inserted in this field, that data remains with the file even if you move the file to another source? For example, if I am looking at a JPG file in the Finder, and I add a brief description of the subjects or the location of the image in the comments field, will be those who comments always be there if I burned the file on a CD, send the file to someone on a Windows computer, copy it to a USB etc. ?

  My goal for this question is the following. I have thousands of family photos, some dating back over 100 years, I'm going to be scanning in the near future. Once scanned, I'll be sitting with my mother and aunts to see these photos/files so that we can determine who is in these pictures, where they were taken, when they were taken, etc. I don't have most of the information I had at the moment I'm digitizing them, but I want an easy way to fix this information to each picture I revisit it with my mom and aunts. I also want to be able to eventually distribute digital files of other members of the family, but most of them do not use Mac (their loss, I know... LOL!). I don't think that using Photos for Mac, Picasa or a third-party to sort application and label will be an option. 30 years from now, who knows what technology will be available, so I want to keep the process as simple and generic as possible, so they can still access it in the future.

  The comments field will work for this purpose, or you have any suggestions for a better way to permanently fix this information to JPG/photo files? Thank you very much for your help!

  Long history, response to shore. Yes, the comments will stick. BUT: there is no guarantee that 30 years from now it will be a BONE that is able to read them.

• Bug in several windows in the finder with several screens

  When you use finder on several screens (with separate spaces) there is a problem when you enter fullscreen.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. open finder on a screen.

  2. open another window in the finder on a different view.

  3. full screen or finder window (any).  You will be able to observe a Visual problem where the finder window that you do not use maximizes and enters full screen then go back to normal, just before the finder window you use between full screen.

  4. at this point your finder window full screen is missing in the top navigation bar.  To reveal it, open your mission control and the space finder-click and you will see.  Basically, the navigation bar is on the finder space expanded while the rest of the finder is on office space.

  5a. If you try to exit the full screen, your finder window will freeze.

  5. before going back to full screen, if you go to the mission control and drag your space viewfinder on the screen where your other window finder is currently on, you will be able to leave the full screen and the finder window will not freeze.

  Cause of the error:

  Still, the problem occurs if the following conditions are met:

  -You have two or more finder windows (if you have only a window of finder, you can always expand it without any problem)

  -You maximize a window of finder, and it's the only finder window on that office space

  For example, if you have three screens and you have 2 1 1 finder windows in offices respectively, you will encounter the error when you maximize the window of the solitary finder on the monitors of 2nd or 3rd.  Maximize a window in the finder on the first monitor has no questions.

  Please try to reproduce.  I hope that it is easily reproduced on any machine and I hope this will be fixed as soon as possible.

• When I try to open a file in the same window instead it opens in another window

  original title: the behavior of the windows

  so my office is weird, as if you try to open a file in the same window instead it open in another window, etc. and the parameters are not to do, and I can not copy, paste, or drag-and - unless u open the file that you are trying to paste in... I mean that it shows that u copied or cut the file but it does not allow you to the paste it where you want it to... help?

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/813711

  I found the solution to a lot of the post regarding the behavior of the window as in not displaying thumbnails do not, or only display as icons. u could not drag-and - drop a file in a folder, the only way possible to copy and paste in the opened folder u he wanted.   When in an open folder u wanted to open another folder in the same window, that he would open the clicked folder u on in another window... Yes I think the setting may have changed with the installation of another program or uninstall. Ive search searched n not thanks to technicians to norton and Microsoft to answer the caz forums of course they know not what theyre doing... but in any case, I saw in another question, someone asked on thumbnails disappear n someone sent them the link to a microsoft support page click on the fix it , and it fixes everything that was to play place configurations... I'm really tired of people who say "oh come on in your folder options and check the personalization", how much this race was frustrating... Well hope it works... for future people and those that have not been answered... and im running vista...
