How do I a folder to 'favorites' section on finder?

Hi, please could someone explain how i could move my 'pictures' folder to the favorites section on finder because i have to use spotlight search to find my pictures folder which is a bit of a pain. Thanks for any help

Hi If you know the name of the picture folder. All you have to do is use the top menu go/ go to folder. Type in the name and click go. If you have Iphoto, you could put the folder on the desktop and import it. Or put it in your applications folder if you do not want to do that.

  • How to Delete Unwanted Folder from Favorites Sidebar in Finder?

    In the finder, by mistake I created a folder on the left side under the favorites category (you know along with Pictures, Music, Movies, Downloads, Documents, Desktop, Applications, Airdrop and All My Files)
    So far I've tried highlighting the untitled folder and hitting delete, tried dragging and dropping folder to desktop, and tried dragging folder to trash. None of these worked! Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Or at least has anyone else had this problem or if you're still confused I will try to clarify better, question may be little confusing.
    THANKS!

    Hold the Command key down and the drag it off the sidebar. A Puff of smoke will form and when you drop it that smoke will go Poof.

  • "My Pictures" folder deleted/moved from My Favorites sidebar in Finder – How to retrieve?

    I accidentally moved "My Pictures" folder from the My Favorites sidebar in Finder, and I can no longer find the folder. I've searched "all my files" for a My Pictures folder and nothing has come up, not even in the trash (that I haven't yet emptied). I am wondering if there is anyway of getting this folder back, as I had several pictures and folders organized within that My Pictures folder. All of my pictures are somewhere still on my computer but even they are hard to locate now without them being in any folder. Would be a HUGE pain to have to re-organize every single thing that was in that folder. Please if somebody has a solution, do share! Thank you!!!

    Okay, so I actually just figured it out.... If anybody is wondering/has the same problem with any folder:
    I went into Finder>All my files> Search and typed in "Pictures" and then went to the "gear looking icon" and clicked Search Criteria. Then changed the second option from "Document" to "Folder". (This explains why none of the folders were showing up). I then dragged the following folder back into "Favorites" sidebar. See Pictures attached.
    Thanks for the help anyway.

  • How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

    First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn.  I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

    Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor.  The pro version of iMovie.
    Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow.  It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them.  You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
    When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
    Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
    Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version).  Personal preferences showing here.

  • Delay in save and open dialog boxes waiting for Sidebar "Favorites" section

    Upgraded Macbook Pro (3,1) from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Lion 10.7.2. Ever since upgrading, when opening or saving documents in any application, the Favorites section in the sidebar is blank for a few seconds, maybe 5-10, and then populates normally. I do have a link to a remote computer's folder in the Favorites, which could be the issue.
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    You're asking about Java, right? There's JFileChooser which is probably what you are asking about. Note that it is just like the VB one in that it doesn't actually open or save a file, it just allows you to choose the name of the file to be opened or saved.

  • How import prior Backed-Up Fox Favorities in multiple sub-folders rather than one at a time in Fox 6.0

    How do you import prior Backed-Up Fox Favorities. This involved many short-cuts and contained in multiple sub-folders.
    How can I import the whole folder library rather than one short-cut at a time from each folder.

    The favorites shortcuts were not IE but from Firefox. I had a operating system failure. So, after re-installing the operating system, I then had to re-install all applications anew.
    After installing Fox 6.0, the problem is my prior use of folders and sub-folders with many favorites shortcuts in each.
    It appears that I will need to start anew with creating a folder system in the new firefox application. Then take all of the favorites shortcuts, individually, out of folders and put them in a file in a row, in an antilog fashion. Then try to get Firefox to accept them in some fashion.
    I also do not know how to (1) export IE Favorites (2) in IE (3) to an HTML?
    I am just lost.

  • I am evaluating Firefox to replace my AOL, how do in import my AOL Favorites into Firefox?

    I am evaluating Firefox to replace my AOL, how do in import my AOL Favorites into Firefox?

    First off we have the Favorites as 100+ *.url files that came from a PC... so no export command was used.
    Regarding the first recommendation of opening every URL and adding it to our Bookmarks would take a long time... there are probably 300 "Favorites" in there.
    Is there another way besides Exporting from IE... Since I did not do that and now just have 100s of .url files in one folder on my Mac's desktop?
    Thank you for the replies!

    Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
    I found the answer to my question.
    When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

  • How to filter the data in different sections (e.g. Report Footers)?

    Hi,
    I am using Crystal Reports 11 to generate cross-tables.
    I plan to generate 3 cross-tabs, and each cross-table will be put in a section. For example, cross-tab1 in Report Footer a; cross-tab2 in Report Footer b; cross-tab3 in Report Footer c.
    I know use "Select Expert" to filter data. But, it seems that "Select Expert" filters data for the whole report.
    I want to filter the data for each cross-table separately. For example, filter cross-tab1 based on condition1; filter cross-tab2 based on condition2; filter cross-tab3 based on condition3.
    How to filter the data in different sections (e.g. Report Footers)?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Now that you've inserted the subreport just right-click the sub-report and click Edit. The Design page for sub-report should open up.
    You can now insert the cross-tab on the Report Header and insert a record selection formula of your choice.
    Also, suppress all the other sections of the subreport so the Main report only shows the crosstab without any spaces.
    Do the same for all the subreports.
