Work with files and folders system

I built a script to workflow that replaces the old versions of images and then did some workflows of the specific things I need. There is a big drawback to the script I want to solve.

Currently I selects a few sequences in the project Panel I want to replace, and select pairs of sequences of exact replacement from an import dialog box. Fortunately, it seems to process everything in alphabetical order so that they fit well. But sometimes it can be a pain to find each file from a large list of replacement.

What I would do is I select the images that I would like to replace, and then I choose a file to be reviewed. The script then analyze the folder (and subfolders) for images with names and run the workflow properly.

It is the analysis of a folder and import the process that I can't understand. I can't find any documentation on how to access and read files before importing them into AE. Best case scenario, I'd love to find a way to show the pair in the user interface to confirm they are correct, similar to the way aescripts: Immigration works. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be amazing. Thank you!

Seems good. Insofar as the. The names of folders and files DS_Store you can do a check during the loop in the checkForFiles function, which excluded because it is through them. You can use the 'hidden' attribute to check if the file is hidden and ignore the file. Also the instanceof object can be used to check if the file is a folder.

function checkForFiles (folderItem) {}

Uses of the var = folderItem.getFiles ();     Gets all files inside the folder

for (var c = 0; c)< thefiles.length;="">

fileType = instanceof uses [c] folder.     Check the file to see if it is a folder

If (uses [c] .hidden! = true & fileType == false) {//Checks file to see if it's hidden, AND if it is a folder

folderFiles.push (theFiles [c]);     Adds files to the array

}

if(filetype == true) {//Checks to see if the file is a folder

checkForFiles (theFiles [c]);     If it is a folder, the function resumes and continues its recursive process.

}

}

}

  • Error message "Access denied" on the sharing of files and folders on a dual-boot computer.

    I have a Dual Boot PC - the two Windows 7 Home Premium - one 32-bit, 64-bit.

    If I try to access files created in the 32-bit system to the 64-bit system, I get "Access Denied" errors. This is extremely annoying as its my PC, my data, my everything!

    The only way to solve the problem seems to be to give all permissions to "Everyone", but then I get my parcel Internet Security complain bitterly that my PC is now open to piracy because I gave "Everyone" full access permissions.

    I searched the Web and Microsoft, but I never seem to find exactly what I'm looking for; part of my search text seems to have more weight than another. For example, I add "in the system to dual-boot" and I get links to creating a dual boot system.

    If anyone has any suggestions on how to grant permissions to access 32-bit system folder to the main user on the 64 bit system, I would be very grateful.

  • problem with the Finder - files and folders displaying incorrectly

    After acquiring a new iMac, I noticed a problem with the Finder - files and folders are displayed wrong (see table).

    This is what happens always after the files have been transferred from one folder to another. I was reminded of my days of using Mac OS in the 1980s when automatic setting of files was not so "automatic." I use Mac OS for decades and I don't remember the last time I had to think about GUI problems like that.

    Other problems in the graphical display of files and folders were introduced, such as when you have hundreds of files in a single folder, you end up deleting about 30 to 40 of them say in a particular section, and you end up with gaps of the ChartSpace where files used to be, that is the remaining files automatically rearrange themselves (fill in these gaps) - never. A week later, you open the folder, and the gap of GUI is still there.

    I decided to do a clean install of the operating system but nothing works.

    Is there some setting in Prefs I'm missing?

    Hi there highland99,

    Looks like your folder icons are not accommodating themselves automatically you plan to do. To me, this indicates that you have organize by the None value in the view menu. You can change the way files and folders are prepared automatically by clicking on view > reorganize by and selecting how you would like that fixed.

  • Windows XP can't see shared files and folders on the system Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    I have a wireless home network. When I got Windows 7 Home premium 32-bit on my desk - my XP laptop was able to share files and folders.

    Today, I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    Now - my Windows 7 Desktop can access files on my XP laptop - BUT - I was no longer able to access to any shared files and folders on the Windows 7 desktop. I checked that matches the name of working group. And on the XP - when I go to the Add Assistant preferred network and make a Browse.When I select Microsoft Windows network and task force - I see my office listed. But when I try to select - the OK button remains grayed out.
    I would appreciate your help on this.

    Thanks for your help - but I just found out the problem. In the advanced sharing settings, I forgot to select Enable turn off password protected sharing. The second I chose no-all the files and folders that I set to share on the Windows 7 system became available.

    Thanks for your help, anyway.
  • Files and folders with the same name

    I am trying to unzip some files and folders and it works fine on my computer with Windows XP. However, when you use Windows Vista I can't because there are folders and files with the same name. After an internet search, it seems that the only suggestion is to extract the files in separate folders which then would allow them to keep the same name. The problem is I want what they in the same folder and they need to have the names they have.

    NOTE: I do have two files with the same name in the same folder, I have a folder and a file with the same name. I would have thought that this would be acceptable because they are two things separate, and given that it's great under XP.

    All solutions?

    You are right, if I make a file and a text file with the same name, it works fine. However, when I try to extract the files I need it tells me that there is already a file with the same name as the folder. He goes to tell me to choose a new name but my only options are 'try again', 'jump' or 'Cancel '.

    I think I can understand what the problem is. For some reason when you download the zip file, the computer seems to have added a few files side with any format other than "file." It is those who have the same name as the folders as if they were, and they could not be uncompressed because of this. I have no idea whence they came as they appear from nowhere (compared to my XP). I'm trying now unzip the files separately and exclude the strange s 'file '.

    Thanks for your help though!

  • Get Photos 'from files and folders"does not work beyond the letter 'G '.

    I have PSE - 7 is installed in Windows 7 64 bit. The program seems to work fine except for this:

    I have a very important folder; (141 GB, 2 500 files, 207 000 files) The command 'Get Photos from files and folders' stops working in the middle of the letter 'G'...!

    I have the same folder in a machine running Win XP, and both PSE 5 and 7 PES do not exhibit this behavior. Can I import from any letter of the alphabet...! (LOL)

    The catalog associated with this installation file has been optimized and recovered.

    This folder is located on the "G: /" drive (volume).

    HARD drive "G /: ' has been fully formatted (not a quick format).

    The only exception may be the way things should have been done, is that the catalogue was opened under the drive letter and the serial number of the drive.

    Using the drive letter, this catalog open immediately. Any ideas...?

    I learned that from the PSE 6, PSE uses the serial number of the HARD disk and not the letter of the reader to access the content. However, a catalog will still open and register correctly, using only the letter of the drive from it's previous machine. (Note that this is the same behavior as earlier versions of PSE, such as PSE-5, which depended only on the drive letter).

    --> When we say that the ESP is not dependent on the drive letter to access its content, it doesn't mean that the PSE will display the serial number of the HARD disk in the application. In this case, you have changed the drive letter from E to F, PSE media will not suffer.

    I'm usually import a whole folder. Until the letter 'G', PSE - 7 works as expected. The photos appear in the organizer and are accessible in all directions. After the letter 'G', it is impossible to select any folder inside the dialog box «Get the folders of files and folders» When the element is highlighted, the letters blink and change for other mailings, then selection resets nothing selected. After 'G', I have to use the, command "Get pictures by the research. This works as expected. Once the pictures are inside the Organizer, everything is as it should be.

    --> This is a known issue. Simply select "All Files" in the "File Type" drop-down list present in the import dialog box. After that, it will work very well.

    Just to sum up PSE6 or PSE7 are not supported under Win7 so you could face some issues.

  • ERRORS WITH FILES AND DELETED FOLDERS

    I deleted several files and folders in recent times, but when I'm in my trash to reconstitute some of these files and folders deleted, surprisingly my basket was empty. To confirm what happened, I deleted some files again and I could not trace of these files to the trash. Again and again, I deleted some files as a test and when I got to the recycle those removed from files and folders could not be found. In short my trash seems always empty, regardless of the number of files and folders deleted. In fact, what is the problem? Should I stop the deletion of files and folders?

    Yes, STOP or you will leave it all.

    Trash and check to see if a GHOST put a check mark in the box to right click.

    Do not move files to the Recycle Bin, delete files immediately when they are deleted.

  • Qosmio X 505-Q892 Desktop files and folders endangered

    As indicated by the name of the thread I encounter a weird problem I've never seen before, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem before where the files and folders on the desktop and files and folders within other folders just goes completely invisible are however still usable.

    Last night I had some strange lag on my computer so I restarted, everything loaded up just fine. I went to load Firefox and an excel spreadsheet to update on my spreadsheet work, and nothing went wrong. Save the file and went to open one that follows and everything in the folder disappeared. It's like everything just went invisible, I tried to move all my old files to the new folder on my computer from an external drive, and he said that all the files are still there. So I rebooted the computer again, and my entire office was empty except for my trash, so I did a system restore to see if it would be useful and done it in a way, but it only is half of the files and visible programs still. Half of my files are still invisible, the information is there and other programs can access the information, I just can't access it myself via records (if it makes no sense to me).

    Now, I know the difficulty more easy for this would be completely clean up the computer and start again, but I have no boot disks and that you don't have any idea how to get half of the drivers and all back, I'm decent with computers, but this part goes beyond the knowledge that I have. Any person in charge of helping a confused man? @. @ I just want to get my files usable again as they are normally...

    It looks like Windows 7 common bug where it is not refresh the list of files. If you press F5, you should see the files appear.

  • To access the files and folders from the hard drive Windows 7 on Windows XP, access denied error message.

    Original title: portable destroyed - need for car access

    I don't know if this is the right forum - please advice if it is not.

    My friend's laptop computer was destroyed in a car accident. I pulled the drive and placed it in my desktop XP system and the drive appear in good health. However, I received permission issues trying to access records on the disk and thought that it was because of me using Win XP and the laptop was Win7x64. My questions below are based on the assumption that I'm not able to access these files on my Win XP system. If this assumption is incorrect, so please let me know.

    I have a laptop that I don't use and put the disk in it. I was hoping it would be plug and play all the new material, but after reading a little online, I know that this is not the best thing to do and will probably not work as did the earlier versions of Windows.

    In the end, I care retrieves the contents of the disc, although it would be great if I could lend my laptop for a few weeks with "its files" until it sorts how to replace the laptop.

    Can I get the player Win7x64 working on the laptop computer of replacement by reinstalling Win7x64 on this laptop? I'm not "means a clean install/reformat, but have rather the Setup program detects an existing installation, and do its magic to get the operating system runs on new hardware?"

    I know that this raises questions of MS licenses. If the installation process could get his old system running on the laptop replacement, if I have a small window of time completely to access his files before being forced to re-register the OS? I'm hoping so.

    I'm looking for only a short-term solution - I do not recommend that he hopes that drive long term because the laptop got quite truncated of the accident, and once he gets a new laptop it will have everything he needs on this subject (OS, licenses, etc.). If I have a small window of time where I can simply copy their important files, or to lend him my laptop with its player and him can bring to its domestic network and the print out of all the things that are important, that it's going to be all together to move them to a new laptop when it is available.

    Hello

    You experience this problem because of the permissions applied to these s folder.  To resolve this problem, you will need to take ownership of these files and folders.

  • Certain files and folders are not detected by Windows Explorer (XP).

    I created 15 files in a folder on a shared network drive, associated with another computer. My computer is running XP x 64 v. 2003 SP2, and the computer server (the one with the shared drive) has v.2002 XP Pro (32-bit) SP3.  When I open the folder in Windows Explorer I see only 12 folders. When I tried to rename one of the 12 visible files to match the name of one of the 3 missing files I get an error (file exists!). What is all too weird, when I select all and delete 12 deleted records and previously missing 3 appears.

    Has also had a similar problem with entire folders. The Explorer does not see the folder but when I create a shortcut by typing the path of the folder manually and click on the shortcut, the name of the file appears in Solution Explorer!

    All files and folders are visible when I connect on the 32-bit computer. There is no difference between the files/folders regarding the permissions or security settings are concerned. Other users have experienced the similar problem. I tested this on 2 other computers on the same network. On a 32-bit computer, everything works fine, but on another 64-bit computer, I get the same question of file disappears.  It seems to suggest some incompatibility between Windows XP 32-bit and 64-bit XP systems.  Any suggestions how to fix it? It's really frustruting...

    The files appear when you refresh the Explorer window by pressing F5 (or view-> Refresh)?
