Curious Folder Bug in Leopard

If I create a folder on my desktop and move it to just under the Spotlight icon in the menu bar it goes 'poof' and disappears! I'm using two monitors and the main is left, so the menu bar ends and the second monitor takes over the real estate to the right.
If I open a new Finder window and navigate to the desktop, the folder is there, but I still can't see it on the actual desktop.
If I select all desktop items and "clean up" the selection, the folder will appear, but it seems fickle, sometimes appearing on monitor 1, other times on monitor 2.
Other times, if I move the mouse (anywhere on the screen) the folder pops into view - on the 2nd desktop.
Weird!

Snap to grid is not enabled. But interestingly, if snap to grid is enabled, I can still make the folder disappear. Typing the first letter of the folder name (assuming nothing else is going to take precedence in the hierarchy) the folder pops back into view on the desktop. So at least there is a way to make it visible again. Guess I'll keep the snap enabled! Thanks.
It would seem to me that the OS engineers wouldn't want to allow you to loose a folder in that manner. But at least it's on a MAc and finding ways to get your data is always doable (or most of the time).
Thanks guys.

  • Nasty iCal bug in Leopard

    Hi
    I think I have discovered a very nasty bug in Leopard iCal.
    If I try to do any kind of search in iCal, by typing in the search word into the search field, the list of found items is empty, although I can clearly see the items dimmed in the month view. The same thing works fine in Tiger (10.4.10).
    Exporting (backup database) the iCal data from Leopard or Tiger and importing it back (revert) into iCal does not help.
    This one sure is a show stopper for me, unless there is some workaround.

    More detail on the iCal black box problem.
    Console reports:

  • USB audio Codec bug in Leopard

    Does anybody know when Apple are going to fix the "USB audio codec" bug in Leopard? I has a USB mic that get a annoying scratchy noise after 5-10 minutes when I record in Garage Band and Logic.

    But this mic is for Mac too. It's says that you "plug and play". I bought this microphone to record my music work at home.
    This is the website, It says that works fine with Garage Band but ...

  • Strange text offset bug in Leopard?

    A few days ago I discovered this strange bug(?!) in both the iCal icon in the Dock and in iPhoto '09.
    The date on the iCal icon are offset and the name of events in iPhoto.
    It just came up from nowhere. The day before it was allright. So I reinstalled Leopard, iLife and so on... Everything was fine yesterday, but today the same thing happend.
    The only installation I have made today is Adobe CS4 Master Suite. BUT I'm not sure if it happend after or before the installation.. Or maybe hours after the installation.
    It's not a serious bug, but very very annoying. Any clues? Trixes? Fixes?
    Images at: http://public.me.com/johannesroth/

    The images were easy to view... thank you!
    Did you by chance edit the images in a Photoshop app and then export them to iPhoto????
    Did you have iPhoto 08 and upgrade? If so, try this, delete this file:
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. See if the text is still off set.

  • Populating Smart Folder - Bug?

    There seems to have been a change in the way smart folders are populated in Snow Leopard. I like to keep a smart folder called "All Today". It is a great troubleshooting tool. For example, there is currently a Snow Leopard bug in using your mouse to select Expose "Show Desktop". With this smart folder, I can change the Expose settings and quickly see that com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist is the possible problem file.
    Unfortunately, Snow Leopard is not populating an realtime smart folder very elegantly. One has to open the smart folder, show search criteria, and toggle search locations to properly populate the folder.
    For example, here is an "All Today" search criteria:
    Create a new Smart Folder w/ search conditions as follows:
    Kind = Any
    System Files = Are Included
    (Option+) ANY of the following are TRUE
    - Last Opened Date = Today
    - Last Modified Date = Today
    Save the folder
    Close finder and open the folder. You will see that the folder is not properly populated. Now, open "Show Search Criteria" and toggle Search location at the top. Now correctly populated. It is a nuisance to have to drop down the menu to show the search criteria and then toggle. This was not the case in Leopard.
    Can anyone think of a work around?

    Hi all,
    I've a similar issue. If you create a smart folder with time based criteria it won't get populated correctly.
    Say you have a criteria "last opened" in "one week"
    It works as soon as you create the folder but if you open a file after the smart folder was created the new file won't be seen in the smart folder.
    Cheers,

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Search Folder Bug (?)

    Just curious if anyone else has this issue:
    When doing a search and wanting to only focus on a specific folder within the root, I have to go one folder deeper to have Dreamweaver select the folder I actually want.
    For example, if I want to search files within /root/main/ I have to actually select /root/main/subfolder/ to have Dreamweaver actually search the "main" folder.
    Is this a bug or just how the search folder works?
    Dreamweaver CS4 (10.0 build 4117) for Windows 7

    It's a well-known issue. See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/478327.

  • Import folder bug

    Hi
    I am importing to Pictures/2010/date of shot
    If viewed in explorer everything is fine. It created the correct subfolders and moved the pictures into it.
    However, in the folder structure in the Library panel the new folders are located at the root of the folder structure, and they obviously cant be moved because they actually are already there.
    Is this bug still not corrected or am I missing something?
    How do I get to show the Library the correct folder structure without always having to delete, resync ...?
    Franz

    You can drag each of the top four folders into the 2010 folder with 88 items.
    LR will then move them on the hard drive.
    You will see something like this (Click image) and all you have to do is click move to confirm.

  • G5 iMac bugs in Leopard?

    Hi,
    I've been having some trouble with my G5 iMac as of late.
    The soundcard will go through a spell whereby every time I turn it on, I get the chime, but the soundcard doesn't work by the time it has booted into Leopard. The soundcard is detected in system profiler, but it is greyed out. Resetting the PRAM or using a maintenance program like Onyx cures the problem, until the next reboot.
    The next problem is that just recently, my Airport card will forget my home network so I have to manually click the icon everytime and select the home network. In my network preferences, I have set the option to remember the last used network and put my home network at the top of my preferred list. It never used to do this.
    I'm wondering whether these issues are bugs in 10.5.5?

    Hi Steve Stiles;
    I second what Barry told you about there not being general issues with 10.5.5. Besides not seeing any issues with my two Macs none of the other six Macs I help to support are reporting errors either. You are having problems with your system.

  • 30EA1 - SQL-Developer 3.0.02 Connection Folder Bug

    hi,
    there are several treads concerning the poor "connection folder" (no sub-folders, folder-structure not in connection export,...) functionality...
    Today i found an new annoying "feature". If you rename a connection within a folder and restart SQL Developer, you will find the connection outside at the bottom of the folders. If you rename all connections within a folder, the folder disappears after restart.
    Its essential to reimplement the connection pane. The storage of the folder-structure outside "connections.xml" in "product-preferences.xml" will always be unmanageable!

    Bug 9734466: RENAME CONNECTION MOVES IT OUT OF THE CURRENT FOLDER
    see also Rename Connection
    I will add reference to this post in the bug.

  • Possible audio bug in Leopard 10.5.4?

    Hi guys,
    I've recently moved to a MacBook running Leopard 10.5.4, and found the following weird problem.
    After a while I use Itunes through my headphones, and I hit the pause button, the kernel_task goes crazy, going from -880 to 3,200 (yes, I'm serious!). If I unplug my headphones, kernel_task goes back to normal. Plugging the headphones back, it goes crazy again, but if I let ITunes play, the problem disappears. I've also tried this with VLC, and for a few seconds of the Avi file I'm opening, there is no sound on the headphones, then the sound comes back, and kernel_task goes back to normal.
    This is independent of the headset, since I've tried with various headsets, and speakers. Also, Console doesn't report anything strange going on.
    Of course, I've tried quitting Itunes, and any other running application, but the problem is still there.
    Any idea about it? Could it be a bug in the audio management of Leopard?
    Thanks in advance,
    Sandro

    I've not had this problem, and I've used at least two other sets of headphones besides the set that came with my iPhone. Did you update to 10.5.4 or was it already installed on your MacBook? If it was an update, I'd recommend performing a 10.5.4 combo update, which will replace any corrupted or damaged files that may have changed since the update. It can be found at: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1054comboupdate .html
    Last questions: did you boot off of your Leopard DVD and run the Apple Hardware Test, and did you try to replicate this in Safe Mode? (boot while holding down Shift) If there are no remedies and Console still shows nothing, you could wait for 10.5.5 to be released, or call AppleCare.

  • Bug Report Facility on OS X, Downloads Folder Bug?

    Hi. I think there should be a reporting system in OS X built-in. They should maybe convert the Report bug on Safari into a suggestions and bugs reporting facility because Safari is usually the most common app that's open all the time. It's inconvenient to do so to go to Apple's suggetions and bugs reporting page in their website.
    Also, when you go to the Downloads folder and put it on Arrange by Kind, some of the files on each category are not grouped properly (.dmg for example), they're separated. It also doesn't delete right away when you use Cmd-Delete, you have to do it more than once sometimes.
    I hope the next update will have fixed most of the quirks.
    Thank you in advance.
    Gbu,
    Alvin

  • Is the Burn  Folder bugged

    I always back up my files to DVD using the Burn folder.
    Recently every disk has been a failure, it only backs up an alias of the files. so if I back up a folder called 'pictures' for instance, the result is just a 1mb alias of the same name on the DVD.
    Is their a bug in a recent software update I have downloaded ?
    I downloaded an old application called Burn and this works fine.
    Anyone else found this please ?

    You keep referring to "the" Burn Folder as if it is a unique object with a required location. You (or your family member) can create as many burn folders as you want, and they can be wherever you put them. If this particular burn folder is on the Desktop, it may well have been created there. You can move it wherever you want it (including the trash, if you and your family are finished with it)

  • Where does "Mail" Folder live in Leopard?

    It's always been Users > Home > Library
    Just got a MP G5 and have my old mac connected via firewire, transferring files, pictures etc. In the past I simply loaded my "Mail" Folder into the Home Folder's Library opened Mail app and voila everything exactly how it was on the other machine. Not with Leopard after i moved the Mail Folder into the G5's Library and launch Mail it wants me to set up the acct. as if I was starting a a new as a fresh user.
    Any ideas?

    (Discussions says I can't edit my posts?!)
    So I guess this should read: In Tiger It's always been here: Users > Home > Library

  • ActiveX inside Folder - bug?

    When I will add SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_ACTIVE_X item to form and set  .frompane and .topane property to show it only on specific folder, the activex is visible in all folders, but not on the one where .frompane and .topane is set.
    The next problem with ActiveX compoennts is, that when this component is added to system form, after changing datas (formdataload) this component became invisible for few seccond and after that will be again visible (when i will move with cursor over it, it will be visible imediately).
    I think its bug in SBO, could somebody who played with activex confirm it to me?
    thanks

    Hi Vitor,
    you direct me to test it with the activex trreview from sdk samples. I added to BP form one folder and inside this folder i added this treeview.
    The problem with folders:
    - to BP form I added one folder and to this folder I added ActiveX as
    Dim oform As SAPbouiCOM.Form
                oform = SBO_Application.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount(pval.FormType, pval.FormTypeCount)
                Dim oitem As SAPbouiCOM.Item
                Dim oitem2 As SAPbouiCOM.Item
                oitem = oform.Items.Add("pane", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_FOLDER)
                oitem.FromPane = 55
                oitem.ToPane = 55
                Dim ofolder As SAPbouiCOM.Folder
                ofolder = oitem.Specific
                ofolder.GroupWith("9")
                oitem2 = oform.Items.Item("9")
                oitem.Top = oitem2.Top
                oitem.Left = oitem2.Left + oitem2.Width + 5
                oitem.Width = oitem2.Width
                oitem = oform.Items.Add("Tree1", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_ACTIVE_X)
                oitem.Left = 20
                oitem.Top = oitem2.Top + 20
                oitem.Width = 200
                oitem.Height = 200
                oitem.FromPane = 55
                oitem.ToPane = 55
                Dim acxtree As Object
                acxtree = oitem.Specific
                acxtree.ClassID = "MSComctlLib.TreeCtrl.2"
    And the result is, that its not working (same behaviour as my activex) - activex is on all panes except the folder with pane 55. It works exactly in opposit way than rest of non activex items. So i think its a bug in sdk.
    Problem with invisible component after form data load event:
    I added treeview to BP form (on header area with nos etting from and to pane) as:
    oitem2 = oform.Items.Item("128")
                oitem = oform.Items.Add("Tree1", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_ACTIVE_X)
                oitem.Left = oitem2.Left + oitem2.Width + 5
                oitem.Top = oitem2.Top
                oitem.Width = 80
                oitem.Height = 50
                Dim acxtree As Object
                acxtree = oitem.Specific
                acxtree.ClassID = "MSComctlLib.TreeCtrl.2"
    The result is, that after form data load the component will be invisible and will be visible again after few seccond. So I think its a bug in SDK too.
    So I think that ActiveX component are very good, but in relation to SBO only when they are used in new user form without panes (and not UDO, because component became invisible).
