Did the Finder change in 10.6?

When I had 10.5.8, I had the Finder set to show everything under 'Places' in Column view and everything under 'Search For' as List view.
Now, under 10.6, I simply cannot get it to behave the same way. Setting 'Search For' view to List puts everything under 'Places' in List view too. Setting 'the 'Places' categories to column view puts everything under 'Search For' into Icon view.
What gives? Is it not possible to have the Finder view preferences as I had it in 10.5? I've already tried repairing permissions and have trashed the Finder prefs once already.

Nobody cares to answer this question, I guess.

  • How to use character styles in the Find/Change JavaScripts?

    First, good luck to Ole. He's been so helpful (and such a good writer, too). All the best!
    My Find/Change JavaScripts are running into trouble at line 159 of the ExtendScript Toolkit. The script is searching for a particular font, to which it should then apply a character style. I'm using the format I see in Adobe's "FindChangeList" sample text, but the script is still hitting a wall. What am I doing wrong? I'd like to have a working method for searching, not only for fonts, but also for finding a particular character or paragraph style and then applying a new style.
    Simple stuff, but I'm roadblocked.
    Here is the script so far:
    //This script applies the DFKai character style to the Arial Unicode font.
    text {findWhat:"", appliedFont:"Arial Unicode MS", fontStyle:"Regular"} {appliedCharacterStyle:"DFKai"} {include footnotes:true, include master pages:true, include hidden layers:true, whole word:false} Find Unicode font; change to DFKai character style.
    Thanks for your help!
    Gary Niemeier

    You are absolutely correct. I don't know how those spaces got there! I copied the text from the "FindChangeList.txt" document, but somewhere along the way, a software program "helpfully" added the spaces. (Rest assured, it wasn't copied from AppleScript. I stick with JavaScript.) Anyway, the script now runs like a charm.
    My thanks to you! Another "newbie" mistake easily spotted, eh?
    One thing, though, if Adobe is reading this: please flesh out the "FindChangeList.txt" file for those who are not programmers/scripters. I'm just a normal InDesign user, and I really need examples of basic syntax in order to use the "Find/Change" script correctly. I'm referring to the syntax involved with finding or changing text with a certain character or paragraph style. I often search for styles, and those properties should be provided in the help file. A couple of samples are all that's needed. (I did read through the JavaScript reference guide provided by Adobe, and even in the "Find/Change" section, it did not provide this information!). Furthermore, I often search text for a specific font. Why isn't this syntax included as well? It would easy to do and would save users a lot of fumbling around.
    Thanks again, all the best.

  • Path of the Find-Change Queries/Grep folder in ID CC 2014

    Hi,
    Is this var correct to localize the path of the Find-Change Queries/Grep folder in ID CC 2014?
    var query_folder = app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.parent.parent + "/Find-Change Queries/Grep/";
    Thanks in advance! 

    Hello,
    Alert ( app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.parent.parent );

  • Trying to find the Find/Change queries

    Okay I thought I knew where these were.  I've looked in
    C:\Users\phyllis\AppData\Local\Adobe\InDesign\Version 6.0\en_US\Caches
    There are files there called FindChangeData and FindChangeDataTmp, but writing them into the folder for Version 7.5 doesn't do anything.
    So I think I'm looking in the wrong place.  I'm trying to move all the find/change queries into InDesign CS 5.5.  Can someone point me to them?
    Thanks, Phyllis

    try C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\<Version #>\<Language>\

  • What changed in the Find/Change Object behavior?

    In Indesign CS4 all graphics in a document could be centered through the Find/Change feature (Object tab) by leaving the Find field blank and setting the Change field to "Fitting Reference Point: Center" (clicking the center button). This no longer works in CS5. The feedback is of x number of objects changed, but none have.
    It was handy, now it's gone.

    No objects locked.
    Actually, it seems stranger.
    (BTW- The CS4 version is running on a Power Mac G5, pre-intel, Tiger.
    The CS5 Version is on a  Power Mac G5, Intel, Snow Leopard.)
    If a single graphic is dragged or placed in the document, the Find/Change, as described, does nothing. When a second one is added, it works as expected, unless they are both jpegs or PSDs. In that case, they sometimes, disappear completly and are shown to be (in the links panel) on the pasteboard but not visible there. But, get this, add a pdf or AI file to the doc, and run it again and it works fine again. The revese order also applies. If I delete all but one graphic it stops working again.
    In all cases the fitting commands work fine.
    It seems as if there is some confusion in how the document object model is being addressed and filetype is in the mix.

    Is it visible at all? If so, drag it to a new location, hit the "Done" button to close, close your document and launch InDesign again. By the way, are you on OSX or Windows? I'm on OSX and that works for me. My InDesign version is CS6. Hope this helps.
    Cheers!

  • Bug: Setting "Don't include footnotes" via scripting doesn't change the find/change dialog

    Hi,
    Small bug, but can be confusing. Whether you write this line:
    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes = false;
    or this line:
    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes = true;
    ... you won't see any different in the little footnotes button in the
    find/replace dialog, even though the setting does work via scripting.
    More testing is needed to see what can be done to get the UI in sync
    with the setting...
    Ariel

    The dialog isn't updated while it's displayed. But hiding the dialog and displaying it again (twice Ctrl+F) shows that the script did do its thing.

  • Why did the date change to september 21 when it is realy august 21?!?!

    I tried cropping a picture and suddenly my phone turned off then turned back on by itself. When it turned back on i noticed the date changed to september! Why did this happen? And how can i change back the date?

    This has occured on my iPhone 4 16GB three times this morning.  Once at 8:15a, then at 10:30a, and just now at 12:00p today (all times are Central). 
    Device:  iPhone 4 16GB (MC318LL)
    Carrier:  AT&T
    iOS Version: 5.1.1 (9B206)
    Turning the phone off and on does not fix the problem.  Could be an issue with the date/time info when queried from the carrier. All three times I was on 3G and had a weak signal. Once the date changed, 3G was lost and then went to 2G (EDGE) and then 3G was restored.  I am wondering if it will happen at 2:00p also.

  • Keep track of styles in the find/change fields

    Please at least make this an option.
    I need the ability for InDesign to keep the track of paragraph,character & object styles that have changed names. Because when they do change names, I have to go through a mega list of GREP queries and "re-link" them in the change field.

    If you really want, you can change it manually. Saved Queries can be found in your User data folder (which depends on your OS, your InDesign version, and your installation language -- CS4, Mac, is in Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 6.0/en_US/Find-Change Queries).
    This small sample is from a saved query that finds a character style "Page Number" and changes to a paragraph style "Body Text Indent":
    <FindFormatSettings>
    <TextAttribute type="cstyle" value="Page Number">
    </TextAttribute>
    </FindFormatSettings>
    <ReplaceFormatSettings>
    <TextAttribute type="pstyle" value="Body Text Indent">
    </TextAttribute>
    -- I changed the 'pstyle/value' string to another paragraph style name, using TextEdit, and when I retrieved the query in InDesign it was there.

  • Why did the permissions change on my log files?

    My Messaging Server was running just fine, but then it crashed with an error
    message that it couldn't write the log files. What happened?
    <P>
    Under the INSTALLATION root, there is only one file that should be owned by
    root:
    <P>
    ./bin/msg/store/bin/ressh
    <P>
    ALL other files should be owned by the user that Messaging is to be run as.
    Changing the ownership of the log files will enable the server to start
    immediately, but the ownership of the files should be addressed.

    Check your settings in System Preferencees > Desktop & Screen Saver > Hot Corners

  • Distiller - Is it still available or did the name change/

    I cannot seem to find a download on Adobe's website for distiller single client...is it still available?
    Thanks - Laura

    Distiller has not been sold as a single client product since 1.0, 20 years ago. This is the Distiller Server forum; that was discontinued many years ago.
    But since 2.0, Distiller has been included with the Acrobat product, currently Acrobat Pro (Windows, Mac) and Acrobat Standard (Windows). This is a single user license NOT to be used for a server process.
    The current server solution, similar to Distiller but going further, is LiveCycle PDF Generator, which comes in a variety of editions. Some editions can export or convert Office documents, as well as PostScript.

  • Did the cursor change in Safari 5.1.3?

    Maybe I'm just crazy, but I was curious if the cursor icon when a link is being hovered over has changed in Safari 5.1.3 from what it used to be. The "hand" now seems to be tilted a bit and the pointer finger at an angle.
    Just curious-- or insane.
