Renamed HD

Hello!

This is totally stupid and never happened before: by accident I ve changed the name of my main HD on the desktop.

All know how to get back the old name? Is that on some hidden log file?

Thanks for any help!

LAO

Just type the name of old. Not much. To do this, select/highlight the current name, and press enter/return.

    You can not. You may be able to rename it in a format customized with my CustomRenamer script or something similar, but that requires that you disable the option keep organized for the rest of your library.

  • Process of renaming with applescript/automator

    Hello

    I need a workflow to automate or an applescript script that will look at a folder called 'Vidéos Finished'. When a video file (.mkv or .mp4) is added to this folder, please proceed as follows:

    1. Create a new folder in the folder «Finished videos»
    2. Rename the new folder in the same as the file that has been added (less the extension)
    3. Copy the file added in this new folder
    4. Delete the added file so it only exists in the new renamed folder.

    Otherwise if it's easier, it would be ok if the new folder is created in a different folder of "destination". Also long video file ends upward in a folder named idental to himself.

    No guest should be presented during the process. He needs run automataically.

    Is it still possible? I hope someone can help :-)

    Kind regards

    Jesper

    It's trivial and actually easier that involves your workflow.

    It requires 2 steps, not 4:

    1: create a folder with the same file name (without extension)

    2: move the file to the new folder

    The trickiest part is the extraction of the base name of the file (without the extension), but this should do the trick:

    on Adding folder items to folder after receiving theNewItems

    Repeat with eachItem in theNewItems

    the value theBaseName to my getBaseNameOf (eachItem)

    say application 'Finder '.

    the value theNewFolder to create a new folder to Folder with properties {name: theBaseName}

    pass to theNewFolder eachItem

    end say

    end Repeat

    end Adding folder items to

    on getBaseNameOf (thisItem)

    say application 'Finder '.

    the value ext for name extension of thisItem

    the value extLength to the number of characters in ext

    the value n to characters 1 through -(extLength + 2) of (get the name of thisItem) as text

    end say

    n return

    end getBaseNameOf

  • Rename and change the date of the file on multiple files

    How to rename multiple files in pictures in a single operation like I did in iPhoto? The same question arises to change the filedate?

    I looked in the manual very rudimentary, and it seems to have disappeared. I think that pictures is a gradient iPhoto (I don't want to use a program with no future updates) and I'm not happy to trust pictures/iPhoto to archive all 18100 photos and videos in a single file which from time to time a photo or two disappears (will not help to repair the database file)

    I started using Adobe elements 14 Organizer to keep track of my files in a folder of my choice where my photos is located a file for each photo a week (feel safe) and Adobe Photoshop elements 14 to change files. He has a solution for my answers mentioned here, I have not found better (I tried AcdSee pro for mac but it is pretty unstable and limited in options)

    Come on Apple we give a new Photos with option not reinforced this low quality low option software

    You can't and you couldn't have in iPhoto, either - no change is possible for file names or file dates in a program

    Given that you want to not use pictures you have made the right choice - do not use in it, use a software you like - the software you use is your choice and you can change at will - but it is crazy to expect that Apple or someone else will change the software used and loved by millions just to meet your personal wishes

    And clearly, you have no idea how works same Photos - but because you don't like it don't is really no reason for you or for someone to try to explain it to you - just for a simple example - Photos put everything into one large file - it stores each photo in its own file using the same exact file used by each program Amc system including organizing Adobe

    You have made the right choice for you to use and enjoy - don't know why you even bother to post here

  • All my tabs are missing! Rename and copy/paste the files did not help

    I accidentally opened two windows of Firefox and closed one with all my tabs pinned first, then the second tab. After Firefox reload all my tabs are missing and I tried to rename files, copy and paste files, etc. as suggests these forums, but nothing has worked. I have myself screwed on?

    Check first the Menu history for any tab restore options.
    In the second place.
    If you have already restarted Firefox and have a copy of the files: close Firefox

    1. Open the profile folder profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
    2. Save the previous.js recovery.bak and recovery.js under another name
    3. Place the recovery files in the profile folder.

    So that this does not happen again change your tab Preferences and settings or try Session Manager add and save your profile.

  • How to move or rename the music folder?

    I have a 50,000 ranked songs and thousands of podcasts, mixes, music videos or applications.

    I understand that the so-called gel and iTunes questions all trolling are down to a large enough or maybe completely stupid thing that is the 'keep the organized library option '. That doesn't make a sense, is impossible to run (it would take days, and of course, it freezes the whole computer), put the files where you didn't ask whether they are and then don't know how to recover.

    Because I am enjoying a summer break, I clean my readers and so I decided to do a cleanup, rename and move my music folder that contains all my music classified by artists alongside the iTunes folder.

    Fortunately for me I have zero confidence for Apple, as they were ISIS, so I hold the number and the location of the files because I realize that of course when a play one music it plays very well because itunes detects the song even though she move which it is supposed to do with finder file system.

    But then I restart iTunes to test and here you have this infuriating, incomprehensible problem "song not found" with all my songs, and even if I indicate the new positioning of the library this shit of iTunes is unable to find the songs and it will probably take years to re-index, as iTunes was even able to this without * computer.

    So: How can I move/rename my file without iTunes * up to the library and the paths of the music? Or is there any decent replacement for this * software yet? I have a lot of things and people to manage just in music, even if I used it for 15 years I don't have the patience to endure this * voluntarily, Apple seems to make it worse every update, more.

    You cannot permanently change the names of the tabs because it is defined in the source code of Web pages.

  • How to stop Motion 5 to rename the items?

    How to stop Motion 5 to rename the items?

    For example, I have a folder named "Box" inside this folder are 5 additional folders and in these files are text and circles/squares etc.  Once I have copy and insert the name of the parent is "copy of zone 1", the names of children is now "copy print"1", 1 paper copy etc, and children are also name with a copy to the front and a number in the back.  If you like 50 items in the folder, you need to go to each name and remove the copy, then move to the back of the name and remove the number.  That would make 100 corrections.  If you duplicated "Box" 10 times that would be 500 times I have to delete the copies and 500 times I have to delete the number.  I am an organized person and I do not confuse names like "copy paper 27.

    I only want that this

    'Copy of movement case 12-11'

    to look like this

    "Movement block 12.

    It takes a lot of time to remove the copy at the front and out the number on the back of name.

    In Autodesk Maya 3D they do something similar, it turns 'apples' in 'pasted apples 1 ", so created a script that deletes all the text"stuck"in the name and number on the back the text name.

    I think it's a pretty silly renaming procedure.  Adds text to the front and rear.  Makes me wonder where they got their education.

    David

    David, for starters I can't duplicate what you describe, where things are added to the front and back automatically, you may need to clarify some things.  Looks like what you're saying is you have Group in movement named "Box" If you copy and paste the group, the name of the new group is "copy of copy of box?  Or you add 'Copy from' before the name of the Group at some point before making a copy/duplicate of the Group?

    Movement, like the Finder and many other applications, will add an object in double with 'copy', then add numbers after that. The structure of renaming seems simple enough. For example:

    1. start by a group of layers / named 'box '.

    2. copy and paste "Box" will give you "Box copy.

    3 copy and paste 'Copy of box' will give you «box copy 1"»

    My tests, if "copy" part of the name at the end, only the numbers will be added and increase gradually.  I think that if you get something like "Box copy copy" you have added manually "copy" at the beginning of the name, which is the only way that I could reproduce what you describe. If you don't want to have to remove 'copy' twice, don't start a layer name or "Exemplary" program group. Motion is probably not check if the copy is at the beginning, at the end.

    For what is a way of not having a copy or a number added to the end, it is not a.  It is probably a requirement of how the movement initially creates duplicates of layers/groups and make sure, that it is not destroy the existing layers. This is probably the best. This is similar to the creation of the records or documents in the Finder, just moving, you can go back and rename multiple items with the same name once they are created. If you are uncomfortable with writing scripts, sounds like you are, maybe it's a good option, otherwise you will have to do some manual changes as you go.

  • Old profile will be migrated but I forgot to backup existing profile before you rename it. Best way to retrieve emails to the original profile that still exists as * .old?

    Of course, I left on stage backup or export, do not know that. In any case, won't make things worse so thought better to ask before proceeding. I've renamed existing "new but used" profile *.old and copied old profile in the same folder, giving the name of the profile 'new but used '. There are emails in the profile "new but used" I need to recover. What is the best way to proceed?

    Thank you
    Mike

    OK, either copy all the files from the old to the new mbox and place them in local folders. do not copy * .msf files (they are just indexfiles and will be recreated)

    delete panacea.dat
    It will be re-created. (it contains a list of directories and files)

    or get an Add on ExportImportTools that can help you import an mbox.

    When they are in local folders you can move.

    Do not rename a profile folder.
    It seems that there is a problem with the profiles.ini.

    See:

    This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

    • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
      C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

    You can use one of them to make Firefox/reuse to create a new default profile:

    • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
    • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
      Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile
