Finder show items in columns an item arrangement selected: Right size this column doesn't works

like the title says, under these condition (note that an item arrangement must be selected) the “right sized” to the maximum width, necessary to display the longest item in the column, doesn't works even with a double click or choosing "Right size this column" option (in both cases the column is set to the default size).
Anyone else experience this issue?

You understand me well, sorry I'm not native English.
Have you selected an item arrangement? if I select "None" it works for me too, the issue is when I select an item arrangement (arrange by Kind for example).
My setting:
Finder > View > Show View Options:
- Always open in column views: SELECTED
- Browse in column view: SELECTED
- Arrange By: Kind
- Sort By: Name
- Text size: 12
- the "three show" SELECTED
Under the above conditions I've the issue, the column isn't resized.

  • Finder question: "right size this column"

    Finder question: how do I get the "right size this column" feature to work automatically each time I open Finder or move between columns?  The column widths reset each time I close/open Finder or move between columns.

    Finder columns:
    Option dragging the resize widget || will resize all columns, wide or narrow, all the same and seems to stick.
    Otherwise:
    Double clicking on the resize widget || will expand that column to show all.
    Option double click on the resize widget || will temporarily resize all columns to the largest width needed..
    The last option may help but it isn't permanent.

  • I seem to have multiple problems related or unrelated.  I cannot use Apple Mail for blueyonder and mostly for gmail as both show that the server is off line.  My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with pop up windows on nearly every command

    Firstly I am unable to use Apple mail except for hotmail, for blueyonder, gmail or Sky as the server shows as (off line) and I have no idea how to get them on line even though I tell them to go there. 
    My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with advertising windows virtually on ever command I make, one seems to be impossible to unsubscribe from. 
    When I am in an email with a web link the web link doesn't work and I get a window saying that I must have a pop up blocker, but if I switch it off it is no different, what does work is switching the "enable Java script off", then when I get to the web site I can't use it until I switch the java script back on.
    I can't do a screen shot either full or partial, when I try it changes the web site that is on screen to another.
    So what have I done that might have caused problems, downloading Yosemite seemed to be the start of the problems.  Since then I have started to install Mackeeper, after checking with a family members who should know, that MacPaw is safe.  I decided that I didn't want to pay the subscription, so went through the uninstall instructions but it comes up as a pop up with considerable regularity.
    My stress levels have gone through the roof with pop ups happening so regularly and not being able to use Apple mail.o can anyone help please?

  • Ipod Touch 3rd Gen - not recognized by computer or itunes.  Shows cable pointing to itunes logo.  Can't reset it.  Doesn't work at all.  Have tried all the supposed fixes on the apple site with no luck.  It suggested asking other users !

    I have a 3rd Generation ipod touch that is not recognized by itunes or my computer.  My itunes works with other apple devices I own.  I cannot reset the ipod touch and can never get to the screen where it is supposed to show a red battery to turn it off.  I can't reset it.  Have tried to use the suggestions on the apple site to no avail.  Any suggestions ?

    From my experience, the only way you're gonna get a PC afflicted with this disease to work with a 5th gen nano is to roll back to an earlier version of iTunes.  Those affected have been exhausted by this ongoing issue.  To update or not to update?  And I always say never update unless you have to, and turn off all that auto update mess!
    I have two core2duo lappies running 32b vista.  My workflow dictates 32b fyi.  One is acer aspire running itunes v 11.1 (.0.126),  5th gen nano was originally formatted and works just fine on this machine to this day.  My other is the bigger badder lenovo thinkpad and the 5th gen will NOT mount using any version of itunes past 11.0 (.1.12)  Windows mounts it just fine.  itunes is not having it.  no shirt no shoes no service.
    I have both a 4th and 5th gen nano.  The 4th gen works great on both machines, I even successfully tested it with the latest version (11.1.5) before subsequent deletion on the thinkpad!  Weird huh?  I think my next experiment might be to restore my 5th gen w/ a Mac and theeeeen plug it into PC itunez.
    I'm at a loss on the thinkpad.  Scanned for intruders.  Cut the Lenovo bloat.  Executed system and reg maintenance.  Took down msconfig to a safe mode + itunes level to attempt to resolve possible sw conflicts but to no avail.  NO NO NO.  Every single dang port, every time on the thinkpad.  Has me feeling like others might get the same treatment by the next itunes update.  :|
    So in summary for me:
    5th gen nano and thinkpad are a NoGo on 11.1^  last working version for me = 11.0.1
    5th gen nano is working on an acer aspire 11.1.0  but no way in the world am I updating
    4th gen nano is kicking 5th gen nano's @zz so what would make me want to buy a new ipod?

  • Slider for scaling finder icons doesn't work if...

    I enabled the statusbar in the Finder window which enables the slider to scale the icons. But it doesn't work if I switch from the column view to the icon view. But the slider works if I switch from the list view or the cover flow.
    You will find a screenvideo at http://www.arangoo.com/slider.mp4.
    Thanks.

    Wow, I was having the same problem and never noticed that if you switch from list or cover flow it works! Still annoying but at least it's a quick work around. I hope Apple notices this and gets a fix going.

  • Wifi shows connected but doesn't work

    My iPhone 4 shows that it is connected to my home network, but the wifi doesn't work. I know that the router is working because another computer on the network is working fine.

    Try following:
    Delete the WiFi network from your iPhone.
    Disconnect the WiFi router from the power cord, let it be a few minutes, then reconnect.
    Reset the iPhone by holding the Power button and the Home button at the same time, keep holding, ingnore everything on the screen, until you see the white Apple logo, then let go and let the iPhone restart. Set the WiFi t on and put in the password.
    That should do it.

  • Auto Size All Columns

    _Auto Size All Columns_ no longer auto sizes the Name column in the Windows version of iTunes. Furthermore, _Auto Size All Columns_ ought to be a configurable option that works automatically whenever you select different music in the library to appear in the browser. Let the software do the work of resizing the columns. That's what computers are for!
    Yeah, I know that I'm supposed to report this via the Apple feedback mechanism. I've done that twice now with no results. I'd appreciate it if you reported it too. I'm tired of having to readjust column widths every time I choose a new selection to appear in the browser. You should be too. Report it. Complain about it. Do something!

    I tried that and it doesn't work. I make the shortcut in SP, but when I select "Auto Size All Columns" in iTunes, the shortcut isn't to the right of it.

  • Require that this column contains information not working

    Hi,
    I've added a new column to SharePoint Online document list, and I've selected the option: "Require that this column contains information", but when I try to upload a Document to this list, this option doesn't work, because the document always upload.
    Appears a new windows that says that the document is uploaded and that I can protect the document, and appears the new column to put data, but if I select the Cancel option, the document is uploaded.
    What I need is that before I upload a document, it requires the metadata information with the column and if I select Cancel, the document doesn't upload.
    Thanks

    Hi santiagocarbonell,
    If your event receiver is working on your on-premise server,  it should work on SharePoint Online aswell. Unless if you are doing something from the Event Receiver which is not allowed in Sandbox. In that situation, SPException will be thrown.There
    is really no "different" way to create Event Receivers for SharePoint online.
    Can refer the below url for how to implement remote event receiver for SharePoint online can replace the code accordingly.

  • Scope of Finder "show item info"

    This is to document some apparently inconsistent behavior of the current Finder "show item info"  view option: In Finder icon view, view->show view options->"show item info". The purpose is display additional information, including number of files in subfolders, pixel size of still photos, and running time of videos. It only applies to icon view, not list or column view, which is documented.
    In "show item info" there is an additional button to "use as defaults". The scope of this option is apparently undocumented and inconsistent. You might expect it would apply from the current folder downward -- sometimes it does and sometimes not. On my 2013 iMac running 10.9.3, it seems to be more consistent on the system drive than an external HFS+. Namely on the internal drive applying it at the root level with "use as defaults" seems to propagate that option downward through the folder tree, but on the external drive (Thunderbolt Promise Pegasus R4 RAID 5) it is less consistent.
    In general "show item info" is only fully reliable if invoked separately for each folder. If invoked at a higher folder level, subfolders may or may not display the additional information.
    The behavior is not isolated to a single user but happens for any logged-in user on the same machine.
    Show item info is probably disabled by default for performance reasons. Obtaining the additional info requires I/O. Once obtained it is apparently cached. There may be other optimizations such as don't enable on sub-folders with more than x files, but this is speculation. Regardless of the cause, the current behavior is inconsistent.
    If you want to see the additional "show item info", be prepared to enable it individually for each folder.

    Folder layout is stored in the hidden '.DS_Store' files within each folder.
    I suspect a newly installed OS will have very few .DS_Store files with custom settings so the default can propagate to the child folders. Did you clean install any of these 10.9 systems (erase the disk before install)?
    On your external I'd guess that you have been using it for years & have tweaked various views etc. Some folders will be custom, some may not.
    To see how many you have you can either use an app like FindAnyFile http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/ to search, or use the find command in Terminal.
    find -x / -name .DS_Store
    FAF will need admin permission to show inside protected directories.
    find will require a sudo to do the same e.g.
    sudo find -x  / -name .DS_Store
    The -x will prevent find crossing onto any other disks (Time Machine disks can take eons to search).
    Don't forget to use the /Volumes/VOLUME-NAME for the external disks, wrap it in quotes if you have spaces in the disk name. Drag & drop will auto fill the path with the correct escapes if you drop the disk into Terminal.
    You may be tempted to just delete these files but there is additional metadata stored in these files. If you remove them you may lose Spotlight comments & possibly other metadata.
    See the sources for links to better explanations…
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.DS_Store
    Also have a look at http://asepsis.binaryage.com/#about if you want to prevent or purge them.
    I'm sure there are lots of ranty posts on here about how this is a lousy system, but it's all we have

    I bought an album in the I Store and it shows there as a Purchased item.  However, I cannot find the album in my iTunes and do not know how to redownload it.  What should I do?

    If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then it should show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - that it where you can redownload items (as long as they remain in the store).
