Finder is not displaying some folders and files

Most folders and files are displaying properly, but some are missing. I can find them by typing their names into the search window, but they are not displaying automatically in Finder.

Hello Andy_fan
Please look for MS-SMB_ServerUserGuide.docx file in the folder where you extracted MS-SMB.zip file and refer section 'Configure the SUT' for configuring SUT. Follow other relevant sections of this document to configure client as well.
Domain is not a requirement for running SMB test suite, hence, if you are in workgroup environment just ignore domain values in the
ParamConfig.xml
file.

Odd Error with Fireworks not seeing some folders or files

I have just updated to OS X 10.5.1 running on a Mac Pro 2x
2.66Ghz dual-core Intel Xeon with 5gb of memory.
I have been using CS3 for some time now on OS X 10.4 with no
problems. After the upgrade I now can't see some folders and files
via Fireworks. Even files I have just worked on in Fireworks and
saved to a folder. I then try and re-open them by looking in the
folder I just saved the file to but it's not there. If I look with
Finder or any other Adobe program I can see it without any
problems.
Has anyone come across this problem before?

Finder has stopped putting my folders and files in alpha order. What happened?

Finder has stopped putting my folders and files in alpha order. What has happened?

When you check and reset that file setting back to alphabetical order, does it stick?
Sometimes a user permissions issue may cause a slight problem, so if this is the
only issue, you could try to 'repair disk permissions' in Disk Utility, However if there
is some other problem and this is only a symptom, something else may be the cause.
If files have been moved between user accounts, then previous account settings &
user permissions may be included with the moved file, so this matter may require
you to look into the settings within each file, via Get Info on the highlighted file name.
You can change permissions and privileges to some extent within this area.
And at times, a simple restart may be required, if the unit has been on awhile. Given
a portable computer, unlike a desktop, your use may not include leaving it on for
months at a time; so it probably has been restarted more than occasionally. Mine,
set to automatically sleep & spin-down the HDD when not in use, is up for months.
Good luck & happy computing!

TA21041 I can not open some folders and get not have permission to open the folder

I can not open some folders and recieve the message: you do not have permission to open this folder. how I can solve it?

Select that folder, choose Get Info from the File menu, and give yourself read access under Sharing & Permissions. This shouldn't be done on folders in system directories.

Used windows update, installed 8 updates, FireFox does not display some websites and images correctly.

Hello,
Windows update installed 8 updates to my computer and now several websites are not displaying images or text correctly. Some forum looks like they were loaded in an extreme basic mode, another forum main page looks fine but sub forums are loaded in in the same basic looking mode, another forum only displayed 1 user avatar out of hundreds.
Chat/IRC clients wont load.
Everything works when I used IE.
I tried to follow the help thingies but was led to a dead link.

Anybody have any ideas?

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.
* Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
You can use one of these extensions to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages:
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
*NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

JBoss 4.2.0 does not contain need folders and files inside default server

Dear,
In the Virtual Appliance you provided, you will find under the /home/livecycle/jboss-4.2.0/server/default ONLY: log folder and tmp folder.
When you start jboss like:
~jboss4.2.0/bin>./run.sh -c default
It will give this error:
Failed to boot JBoss:
org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: url file:/home/livecycle/jboss-4.2.0/server/default/conf/jboss-service.xml could not be opened, does it exist?
The answer is NO as i explain before. But why? is there a problem in the Virtual Appliance when you prepare the jboss server on it?
Please let me know

JBoss in the Virtual Appliance does not have a "default" configuration. You should not start it with the command "./run.sh -c default".
Please read the readme.pdf before you use it:

Some folders and files are 'missing' in lion.

When I restore them from my SL back up they disappear from there as well. Help

I'm having serious issues with the LION Upgrade being not only glitchy but now Complete Folders are vanishing from my hard drive.
I keep a template folder, for speed, on my desktop which I use to start new projects for every client I have. The main folder labled "jobTEMPLATE" contains 6 seperate folders Labled Email, JPEGs, PDFs, PSDs, SOURCE, and WEB as well as one blank text.rtf message.
I duplicate the TEMPLATE folder - name it with the new project and I'm off to the races.
I just tried to do the same thing a few minutes ago and the Template folder I always use is completely EMPTY!!
Thank God I backed that folder up on my external because I have client work in progress which is now gone from the desktop!
Is anyone else having similar issues? Am I going nuts??
On an aside, I am also having issues with my magic mouse not liking Lion at all. My screen will start to pull to the right to go to Mission Controll on its own and / or minimize the entire screen showing multiple windows.
I am not a happy MACer at the moment!

Apache Commons Net FTP : ListFiles not displaying all dirs and files

So I am doing this:
FTPClient f = new FTPClient();
f.connect("foo.bar.com");
boolean login = f.login("User","Pass");
FTPFile[] list = f.listFiles();
When I doing a "list.length" I get 2. When I list it out it just shows that it retrieved the directories only. I know there are more files there....
Here is the wierd thing. When I manually FTP from this Windows box and do a dir I only get the two listings. When I FTP from my linux box I get the full directory listing (those two directories and more files).
Any ideas as to why I am not picking these up?
Thanks,
Michael

C:\Program Files\System Center Operations Manager 2007\Health Service State

Hi,
Please try to find the "health service state" by checking the key “State Directory” under the following location of Registry:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HealthService\Parameters
Thanks.

Finder not able to view folders and files on EHD after updating to OS X 10.9.4

I can see still see 'Hitachi' in the 'Devices' Sidebar, but I am not able to view folders and files on this Hitachi XL2000 2TB FAT32 Hard Drive (EHD) that is USB connected to the iMac below.
Late 2013 Apple iMac (27-inch Display 2560 x 1440), 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB, 512GB Flash Storage, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5, Magic Trackpad, Apple Wireless Keyboard and OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks
All was fine until I updated from OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 earlier this week, so now when I double-click on 'Hitachi' it just loads and loads with nothing happening and never displays the folder and file contents of the EHD.
Also, confirmed that Hitachi EHD has been removed from Spotlight indexing per System Preferences > Privacy > + > Hitachi and it was so this does not seem to be an indexing issue.
I have used OnyX and Apple Disk Utilities unsuccessfully to try and fix this problem.
Interestingly, Backblaze online backup still sees the EHD and connecting this EHD to a Win 8.1 PC also sees the EHD.
Further, I ran the commands below in 'Terminal' to make sure the drive was visible and got the following results which shows that the EHD is not hidden.
iMac:Applications john$ chflags nohidden /Volumes/Hitachi/
iMac:Applications john$ GetFileInfo /Volumes/Hitachi/
directory: "/Volumes/HITACHI"
attributes: avbstclinmedz
modified: 07/10/2014 23:26:44
Finally, I installed XtraFinder and am still not able to see the contents of the EHD, but when I installed OmniDiskSweeper I can navigate the EHD folder tree with no problems and can see the contents of the EHD, but when I try and open up a file it opens Finder which loads and loads and nothing happens.

Apple Support was quite helpful, but in the end I will wait to do a clean install of OS X Yosemite which is due in the Fall and not try and fix OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks.
It turns out that I run backups on my '/Users/john/Library' and the size of this folder before the 10.9.4 update was 1.07 GB and after the update it is 806.9 MB which is baffling, but in the end all of these problems should be resolved with a clean install of OS X Yosemite.
One lesson learned for the future is that I will wait on installing an update until it has been in the wild for awhile as a quick OS X Mavericks Finder Problem search and similar searches show there could be an issue.

Preview.app will not display some PDF files

Since upgrading Yosemite I have found that Preview.app will not display some PDF documents, the documents open but all the pages are blank. This is a big issue as my work involves reviewing documents that are all in the PDF format. Strangely some PDFs work properly but I haven't been able to determine any common factors among the documents that work versus those that don't work. The problem documents do open correctly in Adobe Acrobat Reader but Reader takes over viewing of PDF container fields I have in several important FileMaker Pro 13 databases. Acrobat in the FileMaker databases for me is just as much of a problem as not viewing PDFs in Preview.
After searching the forums I followed suggestion in a post to try using version 7.0 of Preview.app (the version that worked under Mavericks) but that is also showing blank pages. I have noticed that the PDFs which open as blank pages also display that way in Finder and Spotlight previews. Could this mean that I have some kind of OS level issue here and not a Preview.app issue? Perhaps Finder and Spotlight use Preview.app to generate the preview.
I have posted this in a bug report to Apple but in the meantime I would welcome any suggestions or workarounds to try.

The built-in PDF renderer has trouble with that file. You might get better results with Adobe Reader.

How to find folders and files by its partial name c#

in a specific folder of my hard drive i have stored many other sub folder and files. now i want to list those folders and files name by their partial name.
for example
c webapi xx folder
c mvctutorial xx folder
done webapi xx folder
webapi done folder
webapi.zip file
mvc.iso file
now when i like to search by partial name webapi then i want to get list of files and folders name which has webapi word. i want to show their full folder or file name in grid with their full path and size. like below way.
Name Type location Size
c webapi xx folder c:\test1 2 KB
c mvctutorial xx folder c:\test3 3 KB
done webapi xx folder c:\test1 11 KB
webapi done folder c:\test1 9 KB
webapi.zip file c:\test1 20 KB
mvc.iso file c:\test4 5 KB
i got a sample code which look like for finding files but the below code may not find folder. so i am looking for a sample code which will find files and folders too. so guide me to solve my issue.
the below sample code will find files but not sure does it find files by partial name. here is the code. i am not before dev environment. so could not test the below code.
find files code
static void Main(string[] args)
string partialName = "webapi";
DirectoryInfo hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch = new DirectoryInfo(@"c:\");
FileInfo[] filesInDir = hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch.GetFiles("*" + partialName + "*.*");
foreach (FileInfo foundFile in filesInDir)
string fullName = foundFile.FullName;
Console.WriteLine(fullName);

See code below
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
string partialName = "webapi";
DirectoryInfo hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch = new DirectoryInfo(@"c:\");
FileInfo[] filesInDir = hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch.GetFiles("*" + partialName + "*.*");
foreach (FileInfo foundFile in filesInDir)
string fullName = foundFile.FullName;
Console.WriteLine(fullName);
DirectoryInfo[] foldersInDir = hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch.GetDirectories("*" + partialName + "*.*");
foreach (DirectoryInfo foundFolder in foldersInDir)
string fullName = foundFolder.FullName;
Console.WriteLine(fullName);
// or
List<string> filesInDir2 = hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch.GetFiles("*" + partialName + "*.*").Select(x => x.FullName).ToList();
filesInDir2.AddRange( hdDirectoryInWhichToSearch.GetDirectories("*" + partialName + "*.*").Select(x => x.FullName).ToList());
foreach (string filesFolders in filesInDir2)
Console.WriteLine(filesFolders);

Sorting folders and files in FINDER

I can sort folders and files alphabetically, chronologically, etc using LIST view, but not in any other view.
I seem to recall that FINDER used to sort alphabetically but now seems to sort randomly. I prefer to use the COLUMNS view.
In LIST view there are column headers NAME, DATE MODIFIED, SIZE, KIND and clicking on one will sort accordingly.
But these headers do not appear in the other views.

Hi,
This can be done. If you want to arrange your files etc as columns...select "As Columns" from the "View" menu & then select "View Options" also from the "View" menu. It will then give you options as to how you wish to arrange your files etc.

Why can't I drag and drop folders and files in finder?

I was sorting out my folders and files when all of a sudden it stopped letting me drag and drop.
I didn't go on 'Show View Options'.
I've also checked my trackpad settings and all is as should be.
Any idea what's up?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

all of a sudden it stopped letting me drag and drop.
What do you mean by this? What symptoms are being displayed? Are you getting an error message when you try to drag and drop? We need more information to help you diagnose the problem.
