Finally figured out the proper terms to use in google to bring up what I want and I found these two pages: http://developer.apple.com/internet/...scripting.html http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/ma...sx.html?page=1 Case closed. Sorry for wa…

thanks whyatt trash! I'm going to keep this one as it may come in handy as well. Eventually I'll be able to put all these little applescripts together to make one giant automated system and stay at home while the script is being productive for me at…

Marvin rules!! I just did a quick test and it works as advertised. I got all the folders without the files! Once this horribly long batch finishes up, I can connect the drive to the other computer and save myself hours of work by using this love…

jroller, Thanks for the tip. I didn't know I could do that. I rarely search for things on my computer and if I do, it's just for a filename. This depends on spotlight I'm guessing? I've turned it off on my machine at home so I'm not turning up…

I am so smart, S-M-R-T..... You guys scared me pretty good with the XSLT stuff. I looked into it, downloaded programs and gave up. I figured it would be faster to do it by hand than to learn what I needed. Using my favourite method of solvin…

Starting with lundy's most wonderful and helpful script, I managed to hack the rest of what I wanted into it. I found a bit of code on apple's web site to help me log errors to a file so now I will know which files have duplicates so I can track …

Unless the finder can do this, I think I'm going to have to go with FileBuddy. The difference between the 6201 nd 6208 in filebuddy were 7 tiff files. I added the type column to the list in filebuddy and sorted by type. Filebuddy showed me 7 files w…

Well..... nothing was working, even the smart folders until I remembered I put that folder of images in the spotlight privacy tab. Took it out and things started to work a little better. Quote: Originally Posted by F1Turbo I haven't used Automa…

That's a good idea except I can't figure out how to get Automator to do it. I can't figure out how to have it search a folder full of sub folders for JPEGs and then copy all the found items to a specified folder. My find finder items seems to turn u…

well don't I feel stupid..... I can use the search feature in filebuddy! Other than FileBuddy, is there any other way to do this? Thanks
