Ubuntu :: Renaming Photos In KDE4?
Sep 14, 2010
I'm trying to batch rename 3,300 photos, and can't figure it out.
I've tried digiKam and KRename, however I can't figure out how to simply rename the files as such:
~/Pictures/[year]/[month]/[datetime].JPG
where the year, month, and datetime are when the picture was taken, via EXIF data. In digiKam, I can't figure out how to rename the files to move to a different dirrectory than their current one, and with KRename, I can't figure out how to only use the year for the directory instead of the entire datetime.

I'm trying to change the name of a partition that grub mislabels. I've tried editing /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober, but I keep getting syntax errors.
The lines I changed are:
Code:
case ${LONGNAME} in
Windows Vista*|Windows 7*)
;;
replacing them with:
[Code]....
where line 163 is the one marked above in red.

I'm trying to rename ~11000 files. What has happened is I have files in the following format:
string1_100_string2_200_string3_300.log
now the numbers 200 and 300 are sometimes below 100 and the file looks like this:
string1_100_string2_99_string3_99.log
and I want to rename such files to be like this:
string1_100_string2_099_string3_099.log
I wrote a small matlab script but it seems to take forever so thought I'd try and do it bash and have got near to nowhere....

I am trying to follow the instructions in the smb.conf file which says, "name original file smb.conf.master and create the "real" config file with test parm -s smb.conf.master >smb.conf".
First I made myself the owner of the smb.conf file. Then I tried to rename the smb.conf file to smb.conf.master. When I try to do this with: rename smb.conf smb.conf.master the result is: Bareword "smb" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.Bareword "conf" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.
Can someone tell me what this means, (why it is happening) and what do I need to do in order to rename the smb.conf file to smb.conf.master.

All I want to do is rename the folder containing my VMs but when I do that it breaks the VMs. In the settings of the individual VMs under Storage, there is a location for the .vdi file which I think may be the culprit but I see no way to change it. So is there a way to easily just rename the folder without importing/exporting the entire VM?

I have ubuntu on one laptop and arch linux on another. Ubuntu allows me to easily take photos from my camera and put them on my laptop. Arch does not, even after I've installed the "necessary" software.
What is it that ubuntu has that allows me to do this? I'd like to know, so that I can install it on arch.

upload photos to Photobox (other than one by one)? It keeps telling me I haven't got the plugins, offers me 2 but both are installed. FTP can't be used as they say (log in and drop stuff in). I have Mint Helena (Karmic Koala) and Mozilla 3.6.8

Does anybody have an idea why I can't upload photos to Facebook?Always when I try to do it, both in Firefox and in Opera the message "The connection has been reset" appears... What could be the reason? Could it also be a problem with my router or provider? Because I presume the problem exists, since I have moved flat.

I use: Ubuntu 11.04 (with Unity) Chrome (and also tried using Firefox and Opera) My Problem? Today I tried to upload some pictures on Facebook (like I use to) and after choosing them it gets stuck, the browser works, but the pictures don't get uploaded. I tried different browsers and the results were the same. My java package seems to be up-to-date as well as my browser (Chrome). I don't really know what is going wrong.

I've got a lot of photos I've take over the years, and I suspect I've got lots and lots of duplicates, since I may have multiple backups for the same photos.
Have anyone experience with deduplication of photos in Ubuntu, and could recommend an approach for a quick and efficient way to do this?

Alright, after trying to organize shortcuts in Wine's menu (which did not work), I ended up hitting the 'Revert' button, which changed the names of most of the folders:
Screenshot
As you've probably guessed, I want to remove "wine-Programs-" from the beginning of the folder names. I've tried using the menu editor to do this, but the 'Properties' button does not seem to work on anything I did not create myself. How do I go about editing the names?
I would also like to know how to move the MS Office shortcuts into a custom folder/menu. They refuse to drag into any folder I make.

A potentially very dumb question but still ... I want to create a place that I can choose in the panel at the top left. So I
- go to Nautilus (tree view in sidepane) down in the folders until I see my destination on the left;
- switch to places in the sidepane and drag and drop the folder onto the places thing.
Then, the folder shows up with the name there, which is something like "Web_ABC". So I want to change it to "Web" only. On my 64bit machine, this works, on my 32bit machine, it doesn't. Whenever I change the name and press ENTER, it goes back to the old name. On the 64bit system, it only worked when I went to some other place once, and then fine, but on the 32bit one, no chance.

I have a large collection of pictures, that are arranged in lots of directories such as pictures/june/001.jpg, pictures/july/005.jpg.I was wondering if it would be possible to move these pictures around so that they are also renamed to their parent folders name, such as moving picture/june/001.jpg to picture/june_001.jpg
Is there an easy way to do this or will i just have to write a shell script?

This has happened twice to me. I'm editing a filename on the desktop, for example, I have a part of the name highlighted and press delete. Inadvertently, I press delete again, but with nothing highlighted. The file is deleted, but is not added to the recycle bin (possible bug).
I believe that is what is happening. I cannot seem to recreate it purposefully on my work computer --I had done this at home this morning while sans-coffee.
Is there a way to recover the files?

I've used Shotwell to give titles to a lot of photos, and now realise that I want to also rename those files using the title. I see that Shotwell saves the title into XMP IPTC structure, using this: dc:title[x]. how to batch rename a bunch of files using this data?

I've installed Silkypix (tried 2.0 and 3.0SE) through Winedoors in Linux Mint Helena and keep getting coloured stripes across the photos. It actually works if I ignore these stripes but I wonder if it could be fixed...? I also tried Linux raw converters Rawtherapee and UFRAW but they don't seem as good, especially the noise reduction function. Can I fix Silkypix or is there another Linux software that is comparable?

As a long-time Windows user, I have trouble zeroing in on many of the most basic tasks in Ubuntu. I have several dozen photos from my camera that I would like to rename in batches such as tulips01.jpg, tulips02.jpg, etc. In Windows I could highlight them and right-click to "rename" to do the lot. I understand that "renaming" is now changing a "property" but I cannot find the simple way to do an entire lot at a time.

I just recently purchased an iPod touch 4G running iOS 4.1 under the assumption that it would play nice with Ubuntu as stated here:..Devices/iPhone. It doesn't! I can't seem to get it to work. It shows up as a camera with 86MB of available space. I can access the photos that are on the device, but nothing else. I really would like to be able to transfer music to the device, but nothing seems to work. Rhythmbox doesn't even seem to recognize that it's there, the device isn't showing up in /media, and I can't seem to get a mount point. Has anybody out there had any success in this area? I've tried on both my 10.04 Desktop and 10.10 laptop machines

(Not too tech savvy here.) With Ubuntu 10.04.1, I'm trying to download a mix of photos and videos from my little Panasonic camera. When I download, F spot comes on and downloads, but I can't play the videos; can only look at the photos.
