Is there any way at the moment to modify (magnify) the original dimensions (microscopic) of these icons on Snow Leopard?
Thanks

  • Getting Rid of Airport Extremes under Shared Devices in Finder Side Bar

    In the Finder side bar, under Shared, I see a nice list of all the computers on my local network.
    Unfortunately, I also see my Airport Extremes (I have two) and they show up as type "PC Server". How can I fix this problem either by not having the Airport Extremes show up while keeping the rest of my computers showing up correctly or (ii) having the finder understand that these are Airport Extremes and not try to connect to them and show the wrong icon.
    Thanks,
    Robert

    I appreciate you taking the time to look. My 3 macs are now displaying only other Leopard computers. The strange ones have disappeared. One strange listing did look like my airport express base station. I have a 2nd express airport which servers to play my itunes. I, also, have two PCs on a Linksys wireless network and a wireless printer on my airport network.
    Have no idea why the strange additions have disappeared. In an attempt to get them to disappear, I did shut down & restart each computer (Macs & PCs), unplugged and replugged both express airports, turned off then on the printer, and unplugged and replugged the linksys wireless router connected to my DSL modem. My goal was to isolate the equipment causing the strange listings. No luck. Could only modify the strange listing by totally taking down the wireless network at the DSL modem. Then, after returning from working at a client's; everything looked normal. ?????

  • I have a disk inserted into my MAC that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How do I eject it?

    I have a disk inserted into my MacBook Pro that is not showing up in the Finder side bar. How can I get it "ejected?" (I've checked in system preferences under CDs & DVDs and did not find a solution.)

    Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
    Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
      1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
          left mouse button until the disc ejects.
      2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
      3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
      4. Press COMMAND-E.
      5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
          your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
            /usr/bin/drutil eject
    If this fails then try this:
    Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

  • Strange Items Under Shared Devices In Finder Side Bar

    I have file sharing on for both my lap top and imac. Each shows up under Shared in the finder side bar. And I am able to connect to either one if I click on them. However two other devices show up as well. These two devices do not exist. When I use "Get Info" for them it indicates they are PC servers. I don't have any such thing. One of the items actually has a hyphenated version of my base station name. If I click on that one it says "connection failed". If I click on the other one it says "connected as guest" but nothing shows up in the window.
    Is there anyway to delete these items/devices or at least keep them from showing up? And why are they showing at all?

  • Finder side-bar is 'greyed out'

    As the title suggests, my finder side-bar is greyed out all of a sudden.
    All I see is 'Devices', 'Shared', 'Places' and 'Search for'... all greyed out and unusable.
    I have gone into preferences>sidebar> and all boxes are ticked...
    As an aside: I have a time capsule and opened the time machine for the first time the other day... I noticed then that the desktop finder view which comes up also has a greyed out sidebar... could it be related?
    Can anyone help get my side-bar back?

    Embarassingly... yes it does!
    I stupidly have been clicking on the words only. Must be the alcohol still lingering since the New Year.
    Thanks Chris

  • No device shows up in the finder side bar

    Hi, I found that my USB flash drive doesn't shows up in the finder side bar, although it has been mounted and can be accessed when I search the name of my USB flash drive in the spotlight. Actually not only is the USB flash drive but nothing shows up in the device sectino of the side bar, what would be the potential problem for this?

    Move the cursor over the DEVICES line in the sidebar. If the word Show appears on the right, click it.

  • I would like to have a storage solution that is accessed wirelessly, can be accessed remotely and is viewable in the finder side bar (mavericks)

    Is this possible? if so, how? Thanks in advance

    You have to pay for online storage, someone has to pay to keep the lights on. As far a getting it on the Finder sidebar, you did something wrong. That is where mine resides, see below.

  • Where is the media in finder side bar

    I am new to Mac, I have the Lion OS. On the side bar in finder, I do not have a media catagory, and when I go to system preferences there is not even a "media" for me to select to view. Is this an option and if so, how do I view it? Also, I have been trying to upload photos to several different sites to print off and I am not able to access my iphoto library to directly upload from there. How do I do this? It is very frustrating having to drag photos to desktop or make different folders because I can't access my iphoto library.
    Thanks!

    Yes, I have checked the available options in Finder > Preferences > Sidebar, and on my system there is not a 'Media' to select. Which is what is confusing me, because it seems many otheres have this feature.
    I am familar with the Share under iphoto, even though I really haven't used it much. And yes, I have created folders to access my photos, because it seems that is the only way I am able to upload them to sites like shutterfly, Walmart, etc to print. But this is a lot of work, and it would just be simpler if I could click on my iphoto library icon and access my photos that way. And so far, I haven't figured out how to do that. So just wondering if it is possible, or what I am missing. Like I said, I am very new to MAC OS and I have a lot to learn.
    Appreciate your help and any further assistance is welcomed!
    Thanks!

  • Is there a way to remove items from the "places" part of the finder side bar?

    Is there a way to remove items placed in the "Places" column of the side bar in the finder window?

    Control-click them and remove them, or just drag them out.

  • New-host-5 under "shared" in finder side bar after Lion update

    Just upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion.
    Intermittently I am now seeing "new-host-5" in the SHARED section of the side bar of a finder window. Switching WiFi off and back on makes it disappear and not come back.
    Any help on tracking this down is much appreciated.
    Thanks, C

    Just did a little more digging and found that the IP address for "new-host-5" is the same as the one for my iMac, who is also on the network. Curiously enough the machine also shows up in the SHARED section with it's real name. Very puzzeling!
