Where do you obtain said program, and is it paid? -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Emilio Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2012 5:30 PM To: MacVisionaries Subject: Re: Hazel Help.
For those unfamiliar with Hazel, it is a file manager application. Like Darcy indicated, you can set various conditions for particular files or folders, and once those conditions are met, the specified result will be automatically executed. I understand the concept of assigning particular conditions to certain folders. However, I am slightly confused when assigning certain conditions because either my rules are not performed, or my rules are performed, but include other data that is not desired. For example, I select my downloads folder as the source from which Hazel will monitor and move only .mp4 files to the automatically add to iTunes folder, but this does not happen, or when changing the "all" to "any" conditions includes other data. This similar result occurs when attempting to set certain conditions that deal with time limits on particular folders either within the downloads folder or within particular folders within dropbox. Searching for tutorials has been semi-fruitful, but I guess I am needing a step-by-step guide because while I understand the ease of this program, it is proving most challenging. Any other feedback or sites where detailed explanations are provided would be greatly appreciated - sorry for the length. thanks Darcy Burnard wrote: > Hi.

I get the overall purpose of a rule, but when adding additional conditions, is where I get lost.
