Baffled by Finder

I recently switched from PC and my iMac is great but I'm baffled by trying to create a folder inside another folder and by moving files between folders. I can't understand why this is not easy and straightforward. And I can't find a Help doc that explains it. Please help.

I imagine you are trying to create a new folder in List View. The focus of List View is the folder name in the title of the window. It doesn't change when you select another folder. You must open the folder to change the focus. When you create a new folder, it creates it in the window that has focus.
For what you want, use icon view or column view.
To move files/folders to another, just drag them into the folder and let go. With Spring-loaded Folders turned on in Finder Prefs, you can hover over a folder (or sidebar Place) and it will Spring Open so you can navigate to the particular folder. If you set the delay too long, it is annoying. If you set it too short, it's really annoying.

  • Issue editing template for website

    So, I am new to Dreamweaver and constantly baffled about finding solutions to problems on my own.
    My issue is this. I have been assigned the duty of updating and modifying our company's webpage. I had nothing to do with the creation of this page, so I am working with someone else's work.
    http://www.csus.edu/isr/index.html     this is what I'm working on.
    My problem had been editing this template that is used on all the other pages. I have a spry menu bar that has all of our menu options. I found a way to add a bar to that, at my company's request. The other edit I made to the page was adding buttons for facebook and twitter. I have updated the file on a local copy, saved it once seeing it worked well in the preview browser, and then replaced the file on the remote server. The template does not change at all. None of my changes are applied whatsoever.
    Any idea why this is happening? I have no clue at this point. I have tried everything I could think of.
    Do you think it has anything to do with editable regions, or what??? I have no clue
    I would appreciate any response at all. Thank You.

    Templates don't do anything at the server level.  They are a local site management tool in Dreamweaver only. 
    Update Template.dwt file and save. 
    When prompted, populate changes to all child pages based on that template. 
    Upload child pages to your server.
    Repeat this each time you edit the Template.

  • Paging custom search results

    I am using ISearchResultSet and want to page through them. I thought about running the query, holding up to 100 in an array, then showing the block of 20 requested on the screen. Probably not effecient but...

    Hello all,
    I can finally see the bug. The address is http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=BUG&p_id=2836633 for anyone interested.
    Towards the end, there are a couple of comedic sentences from the Oracle Bug Team to share with you all.
    First up is the claim that although the Custom Portlet itself instructs you to use it in the manner I did - "The selection of the results attributes only affects the item results. This is the intended behaviour in this release. Control of the result attributes for page results is planned to be added in a future release. This is possibly not clear enough in the documentation." - Classic!!
    Secondly, bearing in my mind, that this suggestion would produce entirely different results - "Available workarounds: Set Search Results Type=>Items or Any" - Please, stop it, my sides are splitting!!
    ANALOGY - THE ORACLE CLOTHES SHOP
    A bare chested man walks in and asks for a shirt. The assistant hands him one, but as the man starts to put it on he is baffled to find no holes for his arms. He queries this and after several hours investigation, the assistant tells him that the shirt is not defective, but that it was never meant to accommodate his arms in the first place. He remarks however, that the sleeve feature will be added to later shirts. The man asks what he should do as he is cold and needs something to cover his upper body. The assistant offers him some trousers.
    C'mon guys!!

  • Develop toobar problems

    I have used LR 1.4 and just switched to LR 2 and I can't get my tool bar in LR2 to show the same tools as it did in LR 1.4. I searched the FAQ and this forum and didn't find anybody else with this problem.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Steve, I don't know if this is the issue, but the first time I ran LR2 on my laptop and switched from full screen with the local adjustment brush selected (it's the same with the graduated filter tool), I was baffled to find that I couldn't access all the standard develop controls. It turned out they were completely off the screen (you can't scroll with the wheel in that situation, either). When I disabled the active tool by clicking on it again, they came back up to where I could scroll them.

  • I've lost my Downloads icon. Its not even in Finder, so I'm baffled!! A little box shows up when I am actually downloading stuff, then disappears. Where has it gone?? CCinNZ

    I've lost my Downloads icon. It's not in Finder or anywhere else I've looked.
    Has anyone found the solution as to where it goes.
    I simply want to drag it back to my Dock.
    Help.

    Not Lost, just leave a downloaded Application or pdf in it and it will stay on the safari tool bar..
    Downloaded files e.g.from Mail stay in the downloads folder in your home account in finder although this can be changed in Safari preferences.

  • Help me  with crazy issues with Finder please- I am baffled!

    I own a G5 1.8 with 2 externals and 100G of space on the harddrive running 10.3.9.
    My problem is bizzare- Firstly the Finder would do all its normal stuff except when I tried to empty the contents of the trash the spinning beach ball came up and I had to force quit the finder this also happened when I tried to "apply to enclosed items" in the get info privlidges section.
    Along with these problems When I use illustrator it won't allow me to close any file off unless I have saved it- the beachball doesn't come up but I click on the red close button on the top left corner of the document and you can just keep clicking on it and nothing happens- Illustrator also won't let you quit out of it either unless you save any unsaved files- I have tried all shortcuts aswell but no result.
    So after all this happening I repaired permissions, defragged the computer with Tech tools and ran alll other tests which found minor errors and fixed them, rebooted from the tech tools sart up volume (edrive) and tested the main hard drive. I also reinstalled Illustrator. After all this Illustrator still responds the same, I have to empty the trash by pressing the option key down at the same time and the "apply to closed items " button doesn't work at all - bu there is no spinning ball though - just no response! Also in Illustrator when I go to print something I can't get a response out of the Page set up button or the Printer select button!-
    Frankly i am sick of it i have spent 2 days trying things to no avail!!
    Please Help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Peter

    Peter:
    What version of Illustrator are you using and is the application located on your hard drive or on one of the externals?
    Have you tried deleting Illustrator's preferences and letting them get rebuilt when you relaunch Illustrator? You should find the preferences in:
    Hard Drive > Users > [Name of your user] > Library > Preferences

  • The Finder Icon "jumped" off my dock..how do i get it back?

    Hi. I just got my new MacBook earlier today and I was moving some of the dock icons around and somehow the Finder icon "jumped" off the dock and is now no longer selectable. It just sits on the desktop and hovers above all other programs but behind the dock. I can't click on it or move it or even select it using the lassoo, so any ideas what I could try? Or anybody have a clue what happened/has this happened to anyone before?
    here's a picture:
    It's not like it's something I could've manually removed. I've tried moving the finder before and you can't do it. (this isn't my first OS X mac)
    I'm just as baffled as you are.
    MacBook 2.0 GHz 13.3"   Mac OS X (10.4.7)

  • Links Pallet Missing. Adobe Help Line baffled.

    A day killed on the Adobe Help Line and no hope in sight. The Links Pallet is AWOL and Adobe tech support can't find it.
    Originally the problem was an error when trying to export a 275 page book to idml format as something was going wrong with the minor panic of losing months worth of work. It kept crashing InDesign CS5 on Win-7 64 Pro.
    In three very long calls over the period of the day, creating new ID's, wiping out all sorts of stuff, including a reinstall of just ID, the Adobe help line finally had us permanently deregister the Suite, remove the whole suite, clean everything with a piece of code they recommended, and reinstall.  It was a clean install. Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection on two DVDs, selected to install every option that had a check box - take a lunch break while it does its thing. Then updated to the latest code for InDesign (7.0.4) and Photoshop (all three check boxes) since those are the only two we generally use.  We went through all the drills such as trashing to preferences, and so on. All the ID extensions are checked as well. When all was said and done, the file still crashed the system, suggesting the problem was a corrupt file. Time to go to plan B...
    We managed to find an older version idml copy that could be updated using draft printouts, and patched our way back to sanity only to discover that none of the images were linked, and when we went to fix this using the link pallet, it was not there. No link panel, not on the /window drop down, not anywhere. We finally relinked the images by using the Package "Repair All". However, one image was RGB, and when we right clicked to edit in orginal (Photoshop), there was no such option anymore. The tech support guy at Adobe was baffled (politely).
    Somehow an awful lot of features related to images have vanished in this futile attempt to fix another problem. We are now worse off than we were this morning.
    We figure there is some sort of switch somewhere, that Adobe tech should know, but their help line seems to be staffed by people whose solution is to delete everything and start over. When that failed to work, they said they will call back, but by the time we rang them back they were closed.
    Has anyone either had this happen, or know what might be causing it? Links is an important feature, and without it, we might as well go back to CS-4...
    Hmmm, good thought, let's try it.  Just tried it before hitting Post Message, saving the file as IDML, but before it would open, the old ID-CS4 crashed with an error "Failed to open plugin resources: PARAGRAPH COMPOSER.RPLN" argh! (Don't let this one distract the question... all we want to know is how to find the Links Pallet on ID-CS5 v 7.0.4)

    We are writing this saga in hopes someone in management at Adobe may actually read it and make some changes to their company. While they may think they save money farming their support out to a call centre in India, they have chosen the wrong centre, or their quality control is bad. While their hourly costs may be lower than running support out of their home office, we suggest Adobe is paying more because the call centre takes so much time, and creates so many new problems. In fact, we do wonder if the reason the call centre people are so polite and constantly repeating and apologising is not cultural, but so they can keep the meter running longer. Memo to Adobe: You are being ripped off. Even if you don't care about your customers, your too-smart cost-cutters are losing you money. Better to provide high-quality tech support that knows what is wrong and finds the solution in minutes than wasting hours and days as happens now.
    It turns out that the support rep at Adobe gave us bad information and was about to propose more bad answers had we not become stroppy and demanded to speak to someone more competent. The support technician's next step was for us to:
    Load ID CS5 on another windows PC
    If the software worked on that PC either call Microsoft (yeah right) or
    Delete and reinstall Windows 7 Pro
    They did not volunteer any more than step 1, but having lost patience with their erroneous advice in the prior round, we pressed for what they would recommend next, since in fact the CS5 products had been working fine on the main desktop until they started telling us to start deleting and reinstalling things. On a complex multi-application computer, deleting and reinstalling Windows is not a simple matter, it usually results in downtime of three days and invariably important programs are reset, losing customisation that has been done over time. Our team concluded that rather than do this, if there was no other solution, we would trash CS5 and either go back to CS4 or purchase an Apple desktop solely to handle InDesign. Therefore, instead of continuing down this line of blind nonsense, we demanded to speak to someone who spoke better English, had a better phone connection and knew more than to tell us to keep damaging our systems.
    Finally, we got a call back from a more informed 1st tier support rep who goes by the nickname Sonny. For some reason the connection was far better, and we could understand every word of his much better English. It turns out that the Adobe support rep had walked us through the delete and recovery procedure and omitted a key step. This was only learned by pressing Sonny hard, until he realised the missing step. The prior rep walked us through the following support process and only told us to call back after we had begun step 5.
    Deactivate the CS5 Master Collection,
    Download and Unzip Creative Suite Cleaner Tool
    Create a new User ID with Administrator Level authority and sign on to it
    Close all programs and run the Cleaner Tool
    Reinstall CS5
    Download the updates (which is a problem when one is on a 10gb cap broadband plan)
    Of course, this did not fix the problem we had called about (manuscript kept crashing ID), but additionally the Links Pallet was completely missing as was the Edit Original right click function which made managing images in a manuscript impossible.
    When we reviewed this with Sonny, he finally identified the missing step. Before Step 4, running the Cleaner Tool, run the Microsoft Control Panel Uninstall Program to remove all the programs. Then run the cleaner tool to find files that Microsoft missed. Finally, after Step 4, add an additional step of manually looking at the files using File Manager to make sure all files were cleaned out and gone. When all this is done, go to Step 5 reboot and reinstall.
    Well the reboot took about 15 minutes as all sorts of orphan files came up, but when all was reinstalled, the InDesign functioned as it was supposed to function. The links pallet and edit orginal image was back where they belonged.
    The only thing we discovered is that when we went to email, eleven years worth of emails had vanished. We are now in correspondence with the email support team (thankfully, we use a commercial product, not a free one) to see if these can be recovered. It appears the Cleaner cleaned out more than Adobe. Oops, sorry about that. Argh!
    So what have we learned?
    The original problem appears to have been a corrupted file. Since this was a 275 page manuscript, it was not something that could easily be given up. We called Adobe hoping to figure out why the application program was crashing. This was never answered. It would crash when we ran spell check and it would crash when we tried to export it to an IDML file. This is a deficiency in the Adobe product that it allows this. Adobe never addressed this, or identified this.
    It was only when we started doing our own trouble shooting while waiting for Adobe to call back after they trashed the delete and restore application, that we realised we were being supported by ignorant technicians who appear to have little understanding of their products, very poor communications technology (it's hard to understand them due to a low quality line and in some cases a strong Indian accent), and whose "solutions" were to remove and reinstall their products. In this solution approach, the support technicians don't always get the steps right, with the outcome that the "solution" does not work.
    At this point, we realised we were in worse shape than when we made the original call. So we searched our files to find the most recent IDML backup that did work, imported it and then took pdf printouts to re-enter all the changes to the manuscript since that backup was made. We hope we located all the differences between the two drafts. This of course is a manual process and what we sought to avoid by calling Adobe in the first place, but we realised that the Adobe support was going to take more time than clerical re-work. Thus we ended up with a repaired manuscript - no thanks to Adobe, and a newly defective application program where their next "solution: was to trash the operating system.
    At no time did the technician ask the key questions to review what they might have done or not done that could have caused the problem. In other words, Adobe does not run a technical support line, but a trash and rebuild line. They waste hours of their own call centre time, not to mention the client time, creating further problems, call centre hours that we presume Adobe must pay for.
    That we must listen very carefully to what the technician says back, since over 50% of the time, they do not understand. When the record is read back, it is wrong (they wrote down that ID crashed on opening... never true).
    That it is not impolite to ask them to stop wasting time with very long apologies as the opening of every sentence.
    That it is essential that you have the customer identity information in the right order, so they do not spend 10 minutes verifying who you are.
    That it is not impolite to tell them to stop filling the air with nonsense and either answer the questions or get someone who can.
    That it is not inappropriate to threaten to document the call and file a formal complaint with Adobe.
    So for anyone who uses Adobe Help:
    Demand someone who can speak clear English on a clear phone connection. Write down their name and location so they can be tracked.
    Write down every step they propose and ask what is the next step if it fails to achieve the desired outcome.
    Demand that each step be written down in their documentation as well.
    Demand to know every custom file such as preferences and language dictionaries and their location. Make copies outside of Adobe so the cleaner file does not delete them. A folder on the desktop is the safest.
    When it becomes clear the technician does not have a clue what they are doing, demand to speak to their boss.
    Document every step here on this forum, so when they ask how they did, refer them to the public record.
    Thanks to Peter Spier and Jongware for their attempts at solutions. Turned out it was a corrupt file that would have been a disaster had we not made backups and a defective Adobe technical support system that threated to trash our whole operation.
    Bravo for persisting, insisting, asserting, relying on your own intelligence as you realized you were being not only ill-served, but wrongly-served and unforgivably-destructively-served. Sorry to hear how your own civility kept you from acting protectively sooner.
    I agree about escalating cases to the highest-level support manager ASAP as you discover incompetent support. I've written about this in a few posts that you can find with this Google search link: InDesign knowhow pro escalate support. I usually offer "I don't mean to be rude, but if you're not expert with this issue..." or I substitute "...aren't able to read the case notes and have expertise," and similar phrases, THEN I PRESS FOR ESCALATION, EVEN IF I NEED TO BE RUDE TO GET IT.
    However, with the increasing complexity of the stuff we use, and, as in your example, it takes a few days to rebuild a system, don't be lulled by the concurrent increased confidence you get from smarter hardware and software. I suggest cloning working systems for backups in disasters like you're reporting. Don't overwrite stored clone backups with unproven current systems that may have unbeknownst to you just gone bad. Consider virtual software like VMware Fusion or Parallels, even if you're committed to Windows; you can install one or more virtual Windows systems on a real Windows system, make snapshots and revert to them if needed. I think these are more robust than Windows Restore Points, because snapshots track everything done on the virtual drive, whereas restore points only undo the Registry, IIRC, so corrupted user files remain corrupt, lost files remain lost.
    IOW, practice safe computing.
    I heard of a business professional who sued his doctor for time lost when he was kept waiting for an extremely long period with no explanation, offer to reschedule, etc. (IOW, he got "airline treatment.") Whether he collected isn't the point so much as the recognition of the concept, and the corresponding smart pro-customer-service steps taken across many industries and companies. Whether defensive or pro-active, better customer service is better for everyone in chain of relationships.

  • Macbook pro can't find hard drive!

    I'm using a 13" Macbook Pro on Lion OS and yesterday I was working on my thesis and I opened up Pinterest for what must have been thirty seconds before I was met with the pinwheel of death. I waited five minutes, and then I decided todo a manual shutdown. and then when I started it up again all I could see was a flashing folder with a question mark on it.
    So i restarted it holding the option key, and my only option is the internet recovery. So I went there, and when I attempted to reinstall the Mac OS, I realized that it couldn't find my hard drive as a destination to download it. So I went to my local apple reseller store here in Norway and ofcourse they had no idea what to do withnit because they've never seen the problem before - they offered to help, but They would need to take it in for 2-4 weeks! and I don't think my exam period can handle that.
    So i left it alone for a night. In the morning I tried to restart it, but the same thing Happened. what should I do? Is my poor hard drive dead?

    It could be that your hard drive IS dead or it could be something as simple as a faulty SATA cable - hard to diagnose from a distance (and I'm quite surprised that an AASP would be baffled by something that MAY be something simple).
    Since you didn't find the Lion Recovery partition when you booted up whilst holding the option key, I'm assuming that the drive is dead or that the SATA cable is bad.
    Assume the drive is dead - the best thing that you can do is get a replacement hard drive, an external enclosure for your 'dead' drive and then use something like DiskWarrior to try to recover your most important data (which would be your thesis - and I'm assuming that you don't have a backup scheme in place?).
    I'm not sure that you should take your machine back to the same reseller - are they an Apple Authorized Service Provider? Go here -> https://locate.apple.com/no/no/ - and see if there's an AASP near you. They should be able to actually diagnose the real problem, before you go through the agony of replacing your hard drive.
    Good luck,

  • How do you find out when your contract times up?

    I've searched all over My BT but no where can I find anything about the date I can cancel my landline. I want to terminate my contract and move to another provder, but don't know either when my contract started or when it ends.
    I believe I'm on a yearly one. Even BT's phone menu is baffling as it gives you the choice to cancel and I'm afraid that may literally terminate it there and then.
    I'm sick of BT increasing their prices and also removing the paper free discount too. I'm with O2 for phone and also have full Sky package but O2 have the better landline offer with BB cheaper again.

  • My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    I had the same thing happen to me.  It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
    The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library".  This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty.  Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
    It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing.  Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices.  If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
    I spent an hour with an Apple Genius.  he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system.  His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system.  I suspect that this won't solve it.
    The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
    I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

  • Can't find Apple TV Sync Menu; No ATV in iTunes, Home Sharing works

    OK,  I'm about to give up...  My computer shows up in Apple TV (2nd Gen) in the ATV home sharing computer list but I am unable to find any reference to a sync menu or any options to force the sync to occur.   I find references here in the support community to ATV showing up in iTunes.   I can't find that anywhere.   My firewall is off.  I am using a Time Machine as my wireless router. 
    I've seen screen shots of a tabbed window explaining how to set up "sync" but I've never seen that window before.   (see this link
    http://web.mac.com/gartside1104/ATV/SyncvStream.html  ).   Is this an ATV1 / ATV2 / iTunes / Windows only feature?.   I'm running OS 10.6.8 with latest updates, latest version of iTunes.  Just updated the Apple TV software.    I never see more than one library from my network at a time in ATV.  I can directly connect to any computer to share via home sharing but I can't select a library to stream from in ATV (ATV1 feature only?)   I can stream to the ATV from any network computer's shared iTunes library. 
    Just baffled here...     Lots of hints but no answers.  
    My primary purpose was to limit the playlists in iTunes that will show up in ATV.   The iTunes preferences for sharing on my local network successfully limit my sharing to specific playlists to other computers on the network, but ATV provides access to ALL playlists.  Does home sharing use a different playlist selector than network sharing? 
    I set out to drain the swamp but am just wrestling with alligators.

    My computer shows up in Apple TV (2nd Gen) in the ATV home sharing computer list but I am unable to find any reference to a sync menu or any options to force the sync to occur.
    The Apple TV2 doesn't sync, it's a streaming only device.
    I find references here in the support community to ATV showing up in iTunes.
    Only the Apple TV 1 shows up under the Devices list in iTunes.
    I've seen screen shots of a tabbed window explaining how to set up "sync" but I've never seen that window before.   (see this link
    http://web.mac.com/gartside1104/ATV/SyncvStream.html  ).   Is this an ATV1 / ATV2 / iTunes / Windows only feature?.
    Yes that's only for the Apple TV 1
    I never see more than one library from my network at a time in ATV.
    Are you using the same details for homesharing on each computer.
    I can directly connect to any computer to share via home sharing but I can't select a library to stream from in ATV (ATV1 feature only?)
    Sorry I don't understand that, could you explain please.
    I can stream to the ATV from any network computer's shared iTunes library.
    That sounds correct.
    but ATV provides access to ALL playlists.
    Yes unfortunately their is no way to restrict content that can be seen by the Apple TV2

  • External Lacie drive crashed, now I can't find a recent backup for LR3 catalog.

    I have LR3 on a Mac running OS 10.6.8.  My catalog, cache and images were stored on an external Lacie 1TB drive (partitioned so it can be used by a pc and mac).  My catalog backup files were saved on another external drive MXTR as well as copies of all my images.  The Lacie had started self ejecting while running LR3 and I thought it was maybe a problem with the cable, as it would work fine after rebooting.  Yesterday it crashed LR3 and never remounted.  I used Disk Utility to try and repair the disk and it instructed me to erase the disk and start over.  I was not worried, since my catalog was backed up to another drive.  10 hours to erase the drive (the drive never quit during this time).  Another 2 hours to copy my images from the MXTR to the Lacie (again the drive never self ejected during this time either).  So now I go to find my most recent backup catalog.  The most recent one I could find was dated 2/09/2012.  I am baffled.  What happened all those times I was backing up?  I upgraded to LR3 in 2011, and I don't remember ever telling it to backup to another folder or drive. 
    Any ideas as to what the problem may be?

    What happened all those times I was backing up?
    We can't possibly know what happend or where your backups are. But you can indeed search all of your available hard disks and see if there are any files named *.LRCAT with recent dates.
    By the way, I would be extremely wary of using that Lacie drive any more. If it was me, I'd replace it.
