Problem with rename file with applescript

• Problems with file renaming Applescript

  Hello all and thanks in advance! I am currently working on a set of scripts that will work in tandem, and I got everything settled except this little AppleScript. It is essentially supposed to rename all the files in a given location at just the last two "words" in a folder (which are essentially the UID) and I used it several times in the past with success, but now that I have removed the guests 'choose folder' and instead of giving a specific path, I ran into the question after question. Here is my script up to now:

  Tell application "Finder".

  Repeat with this_folder in "Macintosh HD:Users:Server:Desktop:Test"

  name of the value folder_name this_folder

  Tell me to define the word - folder_name 2 contract

  Tell me to define the word entity - folder_name 1

  Set final_name to contract & "-" & entity

  If not (file final_name) then

  Set the name to this_folder to final_name

  end if

  end repeat

  tell the end

  say

  I'm now see "unable to get the name of \"M\. ' number-1728 name of "M".

  I thought it was a problem with the path at first, so I commented on the remaining elements of and had no problems from there. As I said, this script worked well when there was a prompt "choose a folder '; the only change that has been made is the reference to the file prompt. Thank you once again.

  As a first step, you should have written:

  Repeat by this_folder in the file "Macintosh HD:Users:Server:Desktop:Test"

• Download a file should implement an option to open the file or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else?

  Download a file would normally bring up an option to open the file with the appropriate program or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else? It is very frustrating - sometimes, you want the first opened file so it can be discarded or stored in a different location.

  Find the type of file in the Firefox -> Options -> Applications Panel, open its menu drop-down and select 'ask '. To reset all the actions of download, delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in your Firefox profile folder (or rename the mimeTypes.rdf X if you want to save as a backup). The file will be regenerated with all types of files, restore the default actions.

  For more information, see application Panel - set how Firefox handles different file types and change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file .

• What is the problem with my files, they don't move, copy or delete? #@?!!

  ..... It is not as easy as you think, either! I am not a novice, but I can't understand how to solve this problem! If I try to move the copy or rename them, Windows XP said 'Impossible. Access denied. Even the disk is not full or write protected and the file is not in use."  Well NO, the hard disk is NOT write protected and far from complete.  No other files in "My Documents", or if otherwise, give me problems. In addition, the files themselves are not protected in writing! They don't have ANY special attributes (IE. 'Read only' and 'Hidden' are NOT defined). Needless to say, I did not define all attributes on them myself, they are not in a shared folder, and I am the administrator of my own computer. When I restarted the computer the next day, it changes nothing! The problem with these particular files remained!

  I was able to move, rename, or delete only with UNLOCKER. But it's not my problem. My problem is when I try to burn any program I use, burns keep in check the end and I keep losing DVD - R, one after the other! I understood the reason for the failures of engraving is because of this problem of reading / writing weird with the files!  WINDOWS XP created this write protect it somehow, because he wasn't on the original files! However, this limited access status is invisible! There is no set special attributes on these files!

  They are just media files, I downloaded, as well as text files (FIVE files different, slightly different formats, ALL from different sources!). They have been downloaded to FIVE different subfolders created in 'My Documents'. And it's not just the affected media files. It's all the files that are in the same folders (ie. txt, jpg) (even if I can at least open the jpg, while I can't read multimedia files).  I've never had this problem with any other similar files downloaded in the same folder. These files are NOT protected by copyright, OR infected by viruses, AND I do not have the virus on my system. (I stopped Kaspersky, my virus program, but it made no difference. "So there was no lock file). Yet, I can play is no longer the files (so that I could before the etc..). VLC says "cannot open the file", WMP says similar. I created a new folder in My Documents, moved to the new folder with UNLOCKER, it made no difference! Same problem! Even using UNLOCKER to transfer them to the desktop, not in any folder in itself does not change a thing! Here is another beauty: software "UnlockIT" says "the file is not locked by any conducted! I have to be to imagine...

  ... This whole thing really made me realize how Microsoft Windows helps my carpal syndrome problem...

• Problem with the files in the folders

  When I'm renameing my music files they automatically categorize by alphabetical order, so I have to scroll to the top to work on the next file. How to stop them from doing this. I didn't have this problem with Windows XP, they remained in order until I closed the file then they in alphabetical order.

  Mr-music

  Windows Explorer has been redesigned from scratch for Vista and works a lot differently.  Try this: before you rename it, sort the folder by a property which will not change as the size of the file.  After name change is done, sort the file by name.

  There seems to be a problem with the software.  We use the CS6 for Records services and when we try to save the record, part of the record is stored.  Usually the recording to be saved as an mp3 file is 70 to 100 KB but recently only 3 KB are recorded.  What should I do to fix this?

  You may need to reset your preferences of hearing files stored in C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\5.0. If you rename this folder in 5.0.bak that hearing won't find it when you open the next time if it will recreate a new settings with the default settings folder. See if hearing then works as expected.

  Is not all clips, but probably 1/5th clips will have 3 or 4 frames of the clamp of the screen randomly corrupt pixels.  See this gif (ignore the interlaced effect), on the lower part. http://i.imgur.com/Kx5Yb.gif

  It is with DSLR no transcoding to 1080 p, 23.976

  If I go into the source file, it plays fine on VLC and Quicktime.  If I delete and re-import the clip, it does the same thing.  If I delete, rename, import the clip, it does the same thing.

  Need help please, it is a puzzle to me.  Transcoding is not an ideal solution.

  Your file is broken. Despite having said that it plays in QuickTime, it does not work:

  

  It's a little more difficult to notice in QT Player, but it is there; It is easier to notice if you move through levels, frame-by-frame in the clip with the arrow keys left and right.

  So, it's not a matter of Premiere Pro; There is something causing your clips corrupted. My first guess would be a bad CF card, but it could be something as Benin as a copy process borked (CF on hard disk) to something as serious a problem with your digital SLR. I don't think there is anyway to fix these files; My usual stuff did not work, which suggests that it is not a problem of container, but a problem with the video stream itself real.

  Bad luck.

• Live data / problem with the permissions of files

  Just try an old version of Dreamweaver MX 2004. I use my service for server/test remotely webhosting server functions. It is running PHP 4.3.10 and MySQL 3.23.58. I was able to set up the database connection and test - retrieve a recordset with no problems. By following the tutorial, I found that visualized wouldn't work, he just gave me a warning about file permissions be wrong. It turns out that when Dreamweaver creates a temporary file of the work-in-progress to upload to the remote server, the file is created on the server with owner = rw, group = rw, r = world, which explains why it does not-group must be set to group = r. The file is created on the fly and then immediately deleted by Dreamweaver so it is impossible to manually set permissions on the server and probably pretty useless too.
  
  I tried just to save the file and the preview in the browser that forces again to be uploaded to the remote server. The first time, it resulted the browser offering a download of the file box instead to run the page. The reason is - again - that Dreamweaver updates downloaded file permissions to include the Group = rw. If I manually set permission for the group the r = group that it works very well.
  
  It turns out that Dreamweaver always puts the permissions of files on the downloads of files (checked php and html) on the remote server / tests to include the Group = rw. Once I have it placed manually on the remote server / tests to the Group = r for a php file, everything's fine and later additions of the same file do not change it again.
  
  I checked with the Web hosting company and their second line reported back that the default file permission they put on downloaded files includes group = are so DW that causes the problem of definition of group = rw first. I was confirmed using WS - FTP to download the same (renamed) file in the same directory target and the set of permissions were owner = rw, group = r, world = r.
  
  Then
  
  Can someone tell me please how to change permissions that DW sets on the files written on a remote server, because I spent countless hours on it without success. Go looking at other posts in this forum, it could be that other users hit the same kind of problem with DW8

  Specifically, Dreamweaver supports the ability to use a remote server for testing purposes. It seems reasonable to test the site locally using the real remote environment in which it must be applied if the site is not already online.

  It turns out that the problem for me is related to what the remote server and tests of server connection configured to use SFTP. This caused the files created on the remote server to have RW set for the group that has been causing all the problems. When the value to use FTP standard, is very well - prepare file permissions properly when downloading and data online works as expected.

  Another SFTP side effect was that the site FTP log contained the Interline - am added to many of them whenever the remote server has been consulted but no text. On the configuration of the connection to standard FTP log fills up with messages as expected.

When the window customize appears that Firefox returns to its normal state. I have to click on the done button and go back to what I did. I tried to reset FireFox back to the default settings, but that has not fixed the problem.
