Need a way to merge folders and treat files in the following manners: (1) If the two same-named files are the same, keep a copy of the file. (2) If the two same-names files are NOT the same, keep both copies. (3) If the file does NOT exist in the destination folder, move the file from source folder to destination folder. Is this possible? In any cell, enter the folder address of the folder from which you want to list the file names. In the cell where you want the list, enter the following formula (I am entering it in cell A3): =IFERROR (INDEX (GetFileNames ($A$1),ROW -2),') Copy and paste the formula in. Right-click on the ZIP files and select Extract All from the option; A pop-up window will appear from where you can select a location to extract the files. Select desired location and hit Extract. Check on the box saying Show extracted files when complete. You can find steps to extract multiple ZIP files on Mac in the following section.

Compressing multiple files. To compress several files and/or folders, create a new folder (Shift + Cmd + N) within Finder or on the desktop and name it whatever you want the zip to be called. Compress and uncompress file archives in Terminal on Mac. When sending folders and multiple files between computers, it’s helpful to compress them into a single archive. This saves space, lets you transfer just one item instead of many, and makes it easier to.

Ka3ebe asked the Utilities forum for a way to copy all of the .txt or .jpg files on a computer to a particular folder.
I’ve got two ways to do this. One uses familiar, Windows-based drag and drop methods. The other harkens back to the dark days of DOS, but it still works in all versions of Windows.
And the difference isn’t only one of user interface. The drag-and-drop method will put all of the files in the same folder. The DOS-like command line approach will preserve the folder structure of the original source. In other words, if you’re copying these files to D:mydocs, the first method will place every file in the D:mydocs folder; the second method will place the files in subfolders of D:mydocs.
Let’s start with the drag-and-drop method: Using Windows Explorer (or File Explorer in Windows 8), navigate to your root location—the drive or folder containing all of the files you want to grab. That might be your Documents folder, or it might be C:. Once there, click the search field in the upper-right corner and type your search criteria. If you want to copy all files with a particular extension, type *., followed by that extension. For instance, *.docx.
Windows (File) Explorer will then display every file with that extension in your current location and its subfolders. Once the files are visible, press Ctrl-A to select all of them, then drag and drop them to the right location. (If you want to copy the files to another folder on the same drive, remember to hold down Ctrl while you drag and drop; see The many ways to copy, move, or delete multiple files for details.)
If you want to keep the copied files in their folder structure, you should use this command-line trick:
In Windows (File) Explorer, Shift-right-click the root location (such as C: or My Documents) and select Open command window here. This will bring up a black command-line environment that may seem nostalgic if you’ve been computing for more than 20 years.
Once there, type the command:
xcopy *.ext destination/s
where ext identifies the type of file you want to copy, and destination where you want it copied to. For instance, to copy all of your *.docx files to D:alldocx, type xcopy *.docx d:alldocx /s.
This technique, unlike the others, will maintain the folder structure as it copies the files.
