I have several folders like /music/1/a.mp3
and /music/2/b.mp3
All of the file names themselves are guaranteed to be different.
Is there a way, probably using the Terminal, to copy these files to /musicTemp/
excluding the folders?
In other words, the result of the two examples above should be:
/music/1/a.mp3
/music/2/b.mp3
into:
/musicTemp/a.mp3
/musicTemp/b.mp3
2Does Finder provide an option to search for files recursively? If yes, search, select all, and drag to your destination. I know that's a good option on other OSes. – Ben Voigt – 2013-03-07T21:51:35.127
1That's so obvious I just facepalmed. All files are .m4a and Finder lets me limit to just /music/. Thanks!!! – samiles – 2013-03-07T21:52:56.343
1Just to add an alternative:
find /music -name "*.mp3" -type file -exec mv {} /destination_dir \;

cp
notmv
. Otherwise that should work. – Ben Voigt – 2013-03-07T21:59:46.057
