Changing the default view in any folder

The default setting regarding how the contents of a folder is displayed is "Tile view". How can you set all folders to open in a "List view"?
I realise that if I change any particular folder to List view it stays that way from that point on but it's really annoying setting every single folder manually!
Isnt there a 'global setting' for making List view a default? On a PC this is very straight forward, how do I do this on a MAC?

Dear Rich
Welcome to Apple Forums,
I'm not sure about either of these but it used to be that you could rook the finder into opening in which ever view you wanted by double clicking on your hard drive icon on your desk top changing it to the view you want and then resizing it slightly. If you then close it and reopen it it should open to list view again. Again i'm not sure that this still works but its better than nothing. Also there is a free program called Cocktail that might do it for you( i have an old version and there for the newer version might have it when might doesn't). I hope one of these two ideas works out for you.

How to change the default view of published iCal's URL

I am publishing an iCal for a nonprofit group and link to the calendar from the group's website. The default URL given (in the send publish email option) leads to the week view of the current week. I would prefer the link to take site visitors to the month view of the calendar. If I go to the month view and copy the URL for it, and use that for the link, I have to change the URL each month, because the URL that comes from the month view will only show the month it was at the time I copied the URL -- it will not change with the new month. Does anyone have any idea of how I can change the URL so that it leads to the month view of whatever the current month is?
I should note that I know how to change the default view in the my browser, but I would rather not have to explain how to do this to all the people viewing the calendar -- just wanting the correct month view to show up when they click the link, without having to change it each month.
I would be so grateful if anyone has some insight on this!
Thanks.

Carlo,
The fact that this question has been left unanswered for over 2 months seems a little negligent on the part of Apple Support.
This Forum is unfortunately not Apple Support. According to Apple:
What is Apple Discussions and how can it help me?  "Apple Discussions is a user-to-user support forum where experts and other Apple product users get together to discuss Apple products.

In direct response to your questions, I would say that (as observed by the OP) anyone who subscribes to a published calendar can make a change to their desired view using the "Preferences" icon which is displayed underneath the mini-month calendars.
There is no way that I know of to directly or conveniently change the time-range. There may be workarounds, but I could not find a suitable solution for you.
I would recommend that you provide iCal Feedback, if you are interested in informing Apple of your desires.

Changing the default view for Line Items in an Auction.

Hello All,
We have a version 5 client who is asking for us to change the default view for line items in an auction.
Currently, if you have an auction setup, and you go to the Line Items tab, the default view is the "Basic View". The client would like to change the Default from "basic view" to "price view".
Is there a way to change this default in the system? Can this be configured using query groups? Any information would be helpful.

Hi wood cloud,
This is not possible, bcz there is no VLV for that drop down and we cant set it to the price view.
Thanks,
Ankur Goyal

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW?

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!

ddotcom,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?

Changing the Default View

I would like to know if and how when I pop in a USB flash drive or view my photo
s in "Finder" and select "Pictures" from my favorites menu list, how can my defu
lt view show ALL my pictures in the folder? OS X tries to be clever by showing r
ecent pics, last week pics, and last 30 days pics first as the default view. I j
ust want to click on my Pictures folder and see all the pictures in there sorted
by 'name' rather than me having to do it manually every single time. Can I alte
r the system default behavior?

Does that make it the default view everytime or must I do that each and every time I select the Pictures folder?

How can i change the default view of recent calls?

Hi,
A similar question was asked here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3072545?start=0&tstart=0
And was not answered.
The default view of recent calls is missed calls on my current configuration.
Not a long time ago the default was all calls.
I didn't change it and don't know how.
How can i change it back? I really don't see the advantage of the current default, most of the users navigate to all calls every time.
I use iphone 4 and ios 5.1.1
Thanks.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
However, I am on 6.1.4, so perhaps there is a diference in the iOS version. It is also a matter of one tap on the screen, so seriously, is it that big a deal?

How can i change the default settings in km folder 'favorites'?

Dear experts,
i have a question about the default settings in the KM folder 'favorites' (to the portal favorites iview):
Over 'Details' in the default settings it's possible to activate the option 'manual ordering'. Then, all users can sort and order their portal favorites. But in the default settings of this folder the on top known option is not standardically activatet!!
How can i activate this option as default eg. automatically at once for all Users??
Under Content Administration > KM-Content > root > userhome > userXY > folder 'favorites': context menue > details: settings > manual ordering it's for each user adjustable. But if you have for example 5.000 users in the pcd of the portal it's a lot of and stupid work.
Thank you very much for all your answers or idears of developement.
TBM

Hello Mr. Urs,
thanks for your comment. But I have offered this solution already to my department. They are not contented with it because they fears it would be too complicated for the single user.
The layout set of the iview 'portal favorites' is changeable. The real main (entrance) portal application (PAR-file) 'com.sap.km.cm' with his component 'navigation' (portalapp.xml) only very hard!!
Is it to be put on possibly a higher folder with inheritance on the folders specific for user 'Favorites'?
Or do you know whether is there release with support package stack that contain this already ("upgrade")?
Thanks a lot again.
Many greetings
TBM

Changing the default view for material

Hi,
I am trying to add views using MM02. It is showing me just 5 views ...BASIC DATA1, BASIC DATA2 etc..... I want to add other views eg, Quality Management but am not able to do it.
I tired doing the following:
Go to mm01
    - Enter the material for which you want to add the views.
    - Then you enter the same material in copy from material
    - Then you may find all the view
    - Then select the views you want to add and make entries in the same view and save it
Are the view material specific?
Thanks,
Shelina

Go to SPRO and follow the path
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
-->Logistics - General
    -->Configuring the Material Master
        -->Basic Settings
            -->Material Types
                -->Define Attributes of Material Types
If you pick the material type of the material that you are trying to extend, you will find the views that are allowed under "User Departments".

How do I change the default view in a 3d pdf?

When I open my 3D model I want it to start in a certain view and I can't figure out how to change this setting. Help please!

Because 3D PDF Converter is the only 3D Plugin for Acrobat, exclusively works with Acrobat and when combined with Acrobat provides the same functionalities that where available in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended (its the same code) i would expect to see questions about our products here. Especially considering every single one of our users is a user of Acrobat Pro.
We see a lot of vistors to our website that come from this forum along with adobe.com and I always like to refer these people to this page on Adobe site to help them understand 3D PDF, some of the use cases and how they can leverage our products together. http://www.adobe.com/manufacturing/solutions/3d_solutions/desktop/ -
Thanks for providing your support and wealth of knowledge.

How can I make folder view the default view when I open Organizer?

I just bought Adobe Elements Photshop and Premier 11. I spent 2 to 3 hours getting my picture video library into Adobe's organizer. I had some problems with duplicate picture (that I wanted to be there - so I had to rename them) and a couple pictures with corrupted metadata. After I got all that sorted out I am a bit miffed about the folder view on Adob'es organizer.
I love that you can switch to folder view - since this is how I have been organizing my pictures for a long time. I would like to continue organizing this way for now until I get a grasp on the other ways I can organize them in elements. However, every time I close and re-open organizer it switches back to the default view instead of folder view. PLEASE tell me that there is a way to set folder view to the default view! HELP!

Perhaps it’s a design feature to speed up the Organizer launch.
I am sure it is.
- The normal use of the Organizer is not the folder view, it's the thumbnail view with an organization based on categories and folder. That way you should forget completely where your pictures are stored. Anyway, the folder view in the Explorer is not a map of the location of the different bits of your file, it's only a logical representation. That's easy to see when you are doing a defragmentation.
- The folder view is useful even for those using normally the thumbnail view, but that is only for rare cases when you must change the folder organization, for instance moving files to another drive. The folder view is here to prevent you from changing things from the explorer and outside of the Organizer.
- The new folder list view, which you find 'funny' is there to help better organizing using tags. Its huge advantage is that such a view is created extremely quickly by extracting the last subfolder in the media table : it's the way the database sees the folders, based on its own content, totally ignoring the complex folder organization of your disk with media files or any unrelated other kind of data. You should use it in many cases, the main purpose being assigning tags when you have assigned descriptive folder names. I had suggested such a solution to prevent the long standing bugs in the folder view of previous versions.
So yes, the purpose is:
- to speed up switching modes
- to help folder organization fans to migrate to tags organization
- to hopefully get rid of the old folder organization bugs

Can we change the default tablespace of a table?

Hi All,
Can we change the default tablespace for any TABLE while it contains any data? If yes, how it works? If no, any workaround?
Thanx,
Zaaf

instead of moving your table after the import you could:
1)execute an import with the parameter ROWS = N
2)move the empty tables to the correct tablespace
3)execute an impot with ROWS = Y and IGNORE = Y
This way you will only have to move empty tables which will probably be much faster also there is no need to rebuild the indexes.

When I change the default folder to save downloads in the options menu, it later reverts to the default folder even though I have made not changes in options. Any ideas? thanks!

In the Options menu I changed the default download location (folder) to a folder I have on my desktop and saved the changes. But this option reverts to the default folder when I turn on my computer and open FF the next day.

Thank you for your response.
I do use CCleaner and just ran it. It did not change the download option folder that I had changed from the default so it appears that this is not cause.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks again!

Change the Show View Options' "All windows" default to "This window only"?

By default, all Show View Options panes are set to "All windows". Is it possible to change the default to "This window only"?
I regularly change icon sizes for various folders, but never for all windows. So every time that I use the Show View Options pane, it's an annoying "click This window only" process.

The default is for any window you have not previously opened and set to have All Windows as the default, for List and Icon Views. Once you click This Window Only and make your settings, then every time you open that particular folder it should remain at the This Window setting.
I find the default of All Windows really really annoying, but I am aware of no way to change this. Send Feedback to Apple:

It should be a user settable global preference, but it isn't.

Power view in SharePoint - Changing the default save location?

Is it possible to change the default location when saving Power view back into SharePoint?
Our users are creating their own power view reports by clicking a power view shared data source in SharePoint document library.
When saving their reports, the default location is always the same location where the data source is. This is described here also:
https://support.office.microsoft.com/en-us/article/Power-View-in-SharePoint-Server-Create-save-and-print-reports-f616575e-02bf-46cd-b94a-b744245ef9d1?CorrelationId=a852221e-b063-4020-a20a-53d8e8fb8b8b&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Quote from the link: "The first time you save the
report, the default location will be the folder where the model is located."
Ok, understood. But is it possible to change this???

Hi again
Ouch! Not the network!
One of the hard learned issues that folks are unaware of until they encounter problems is that Captivate does not do well when a project is stored on a network. It's fine to keep projects there in order to back them up or as a transfer pivot location to allow others to edit, but you never want to open Captivate, click File > Open and browse to a network location to open a project for editing.
Best practice at this point is to keep projects on your local C drive when you make edits.
Cheers... Rick
