What is the best way to organize files and folders on my mac (current Yosemite)?

I'm bored of Windows Explorer, since I got my Mac, as the Finder does not quite do the job.  Applications or software out there who will help?

I think you go through a learning curve, Finder is much more powerful than WE have ever been. You can benefit by using https://www.apple.com/support/macbasics/ to learn how to OS X and if it is not useful to get a book on the Mac OS X version you use and use it as a reference guide until you feel comfortable using OS X.

As much a organize your stuff, specifically are what types of files & folders you referring? If you mean to say that your photos and then use the Photos app for this, if you want to say your music is what iTunes. If you want to tell your other files then Finder and how to organize the files and the use of items such as tags in the Finder. There is a LOT of information at your disposal, but you must write specific questions in the case that we do not know what you are trying to solve the problems.

  • What is the best way to use files recovery

    I work in FM 11 and broke FM a few times. What is the best way to use the recovery files and save them as normal files? So should I filter a window of the Explorer to "recovery" so FM don't ask me if I want to use the older recovery files? Thanks for your help.

    > What is a wash of the MIF?

    1. Save all the files of FM component .mif as MIF format.
      Save the .book as. book.MIF in the MIF format.
    2. Output FM.
      Restart FM.
    3. Open .mifs. Save as FM, replacing the old (FM probably saved files).
    4. Open the. book.MIF, re - register under .book.
      Note: do not open the. first book.MIF and then try to open the component files, or open the files binary pre - MIF.

    FM11 and 12 can have a free add-on as much as the fact in a single operation.

    Washing MIF creates new .book files and FM have syntactically correct data structures (and that may have lack of bad content). They are less likely to crash, but can still have problems.

  • What is the best way of updating OID and similar attributes via OIM OAM LDAP?

    Our environment uses IOM provisioning of an OID LDAP that is used by OAM.

    Purposes of inheritance, must complete the Oracle "orcl *" attributes and OAM "ob * ' in cases where they use the same or similar.

    Example: When a user is disabled in IOM we define orclisenabled = 'false' and obUserAccountControl = 'DISABLED' in OID

    What is the best way to achieve the IOM? My first thought was to write a custom adapter, similar to the OID adapter change user out-of-the-box, which takes in charge the changing multiple attributes.

    Is there a better way?

    You can create two tasks that will modify two attributes to OID.

    On the task of the user to disable call task1, success of task1, Task2 (using the task to feature generate).

    You can make use of OOTB connector only.

    I recently had an external drive of cloud and moved my library to him, with limited success.

  • Could someone tell me the best way to transfer files and settings from an old computer to a newer version?

    Hello everyone, once again I find myself going to the pro to know what you're probably going to think is an easy thing to do, but I have to swallow my pride and ask anyway. Before I ask my question, I need to let you know that I'm almost completely computer illiterate. I can manage to do somethings, but I have a feeling this is going to be difficult. I have an older Dell model, this is the Dimension 2350 series and I would like to transfer those things on that is also a Dell, but it's an Intel Pentium 4. . Really, I don't have as long as it's what files to transfer, but especially picutres of family or your holiday. What worries me is transfer the settings on my old computer to the newest one. I have a Windows XP CD drive that comes with a new computer. What help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!  Can you give me an idea what I have to do first with the old as in the steps I have to take.

    Question for you:
     
    What is the operating system on both systems?  They are both Windows XP?  Is the older Windows XP and the newer Windows Vista?  Windows 7?  Something else?
     
    I ask only because whatever you mentioned was a Windows XP CD that is supplied with the newest computer.  The truth - the newest computer is already up and working as you want - if not relevant.  The answer to the foregoing will help someone lead you correctly.

  • What is the best way to learn photoshop and other adobe products?

    I am an amateur photographer and all my editing was done in Lightroom. I know I have a unlimited creativity with my photos in Photoshop, and so the question comes up. I would like to learn how to use product to adobe as much as possible. What would be the best option? Graphic design of decision-making in a community college, to seminars, to youtube, books, day 2 courses etc... I know Adobe Tutorials but I would like to learn as much as I can out of Adobe.  Of the suggestions as to what type of courses or classes to take would be appreciated. Thank you in advance to Adobe and the Adobe community for your help!

    No doubt personal lessons are the best (short courses and colleges) - and the most expensive!

    There are some excellent books, such as quick start Guides and classroom in a book series.

    The tutorials of Trainsimple.com and Lynda.com online video training are also very good. You can get a free 10 day trial with Lynda.com to try.

    And you can always ask specific questions on the Adobe forums.

  • What is the best way to transfer files to an external hard drive?

    I would like to clean my laptop occasionally so that the hard disk gets more than half full, because I run a large number of graphics and good programs, my fan has some mental problems then he goes crazy. The problem now is that my external hard drive is that of 500 GB and now it's almost half full. I tried to use the files zipped, but honestly, there's just a huge amount of time to compress something (which by the way, why windows excludes a zipped folder more?) and the file gets that much smaller. Should I use another form of compression program?
    A Briefcase is not a substitute for a zipped folder?
    Thank you

    ". . . I can't even afford a good 1 TB hard drive. »

    Whenever you are able to buy another external drive, get not necessarily the least expensive (unless it's a more expensive player for sale). If these backups are valuable to you, go the extra cost of a high quality unit.

    It seems that you pretty much a backup solution, you're just trying to reduce the time it takes. I understand perfectly with having six physical computers, but four of them use SyncToy to keep the two main desktop computers in sync so I only have two I actually backup; I picture all six, but much less frequent that my backups (copies).

    If you try to compress large video files (of the order of GB), I can see where this would be extremely slow and compress probably not as much as you said. In the past, I use to make a copy of zip each of my web sites periodically to check them with one of the order of 1 GB, which took forever.

    ", I don't really like having a bunch of useless files"

    Have you tried the free version of CCleaner? I use it and it keeps a pretty simple enough clean machine. If you have not heard of him or tried, see my post about it in the thread below.

  • What is the best way to move and organize records

    I recently bought a Mac Pro and have bought files across the FRO my windows laptop but what is the best way to organize the files iCloud or local drive and how do I move files in my list of "all files" in individual cases.

    In case you are not aware, all the files that you put in iCloud drive are on your disk local and iCloud.

    You can go to preferences in the Finder menu and specify whether you want iCloud drive to display in the sidebar of the Finder. I find that having it in the sidebar makes it easy to use. I also have other folders I used frequently in the sidebar; You can add the system ones (Documents, downloads, etc.) using this same preferences window. You can add folders that you created them by dragging to the sidebar of a Finder window.

    A way to move files into folders that you created is to open 2 windows in the Finder and drag it from one window to the other. Another option, if you move a file in one of the folders that is displayed in the sidebar is just do it from its current location in the main area of the Finder to the folder window in the sidebar in this same window of Finder.

    Just bought a new Apple computer. What is the best way to transer CS6 and Lightroom? Both applications have been updated. Should I reinstall it on the Adobe site?

    first of all, if you're going to retire this old computer or, at least, no longer use your adobe on this old computer programs, open and click Help > deactivate.
