How do I display the folder size in OS X Lion?

So I just upgraded to Lion yesterday and so far I really like. The only thing that is bugging me so far is when I open a folder or drive I want to display the size of that particular folder. How much information is contained and how much free space is available. Any one know how to display that?
Thanks,

I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to but,
In any finder window in the View menu click on the "show status bar" that shows at the bottom how many items are in that particular folder and how much GB is available.
Hope this helps

  • How do I find the folder size.

    Using the finder, I can find a file by size, but how can i find folders of a particular size? I need to clean my hard drive and I'm looking for all folders that are larger than 3GB. Is this possible?

    OmniDiskSweeper is a very nice utility for finding where all the storage on your disk is collecting.
    <http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnidisksweeper/>
    In the Finder, you can use
    Finder -> File -> Find...
    click on the "Kind" pop-up and select "other", then search for "size" and check the box.
    Now you can search for "Size" "*Greater Than*".
    If you wish to use the Terminal, there is the /usr/bin/find command
    find /starting_directory -size +123M

  • How do I set the default size of a new folder?

    I have finder sized the way I want for existing folders and if I do Finder > New Finder Window. These preferrences, however, do not seem to apply to new folders. Everytime I create a new folder on my desktop, and open that folder for the first time, the window size is really small and the sidebar is narrow. This is incredibally annoying. How do I set the default size for all new folders? Is there a plist file I can edit to fix this? Or an AppleScript I can run automatically in the background that fixes this? I am running Mavericks 10.9.1.

    If you use the Finder's New Finder Window command (command N) to create a new window, resize it, place it where you want, and set it for icon view or however you want it. Then close it. Closing it is what sets these as the default. That should become the default for every new Finder window you create using the new window command. But if you have lots of windows open at once and then close them, the last window you close will set a new default.
    There are lots of utilities that control Windows - their size and placement. I use one called Moom but there are many more.

    Saving each image as different size - is it an option for you?  I would save images with their name as: 20x30.png, 16x20.png etc etc.
    Or explain whether you want these in a webpage  in which case only one image is necessary and different sizes are displayed with good CSS code.  this is question for Dreamweaver forum if this is what you want.

  • How do I get the top links in the search results page to display the folder?

    In the search results page, if you click on the top link from each result, it only brings up the description. Not much use as a link, so was wondering how you display the folder from this link.

    Is this for the general public or just for you?  If it is for the general public then insert this code at the top of the page:
    <TITLE>---</TITLE>
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
    </HEAD>
    And also at the end of the file after the closing body tag:
    </BODY>
    <HEAD>
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
    </HEAD>
    </HTML>
    It is unorthodox but it works.

    Have you noticed any difference between your MacBook and others at the Apple store? Wondering whether this is a configurable setting at the system level, i.e., DPI.
    You can default Firefox to a larger zoom level to avoid having to zoom every page. You'll still be able to adjust the size for individual sites as needed. It sounds as though you are aware of these add-ons:
    * Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
    * NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    There are some discussions about changing coming in Firefox 22 (I think) to address higher density displays like the Retina display. So perhaps there will be a built-in setting to address this in the future.

  • How to display the folder name in a webi report at infoview

    Hi all,
    Suppose I have a report named "Test_Report" at location Public folder > Test_Folder> Reports_Folder
    now I want to display the folder name "Test_Folder" using a variable in "Test_Report".
    So that the variable will always display the corresponding folder name of "Test_Report" wherever the report resides.
    Thanks in advance.

    Folder name is located in the breadcrumb
    remove your breadcrumb in your collectionrenderer of the layout set you are using.
    Check the layout set you are using in your KM navigational iview.

  • How can I display total playlist size in iTunes 11.  It used to be visible for each playlist or CD, but I can't find it now.

    How can I display total playlist size in iTunes 11.  It used to be visible for each playlist or CD, but I can't find it now.

    The Friend: Thanks from me too for that super simple fix!! I feel kinda stupid for not knowing that.
    Too bad Apple didn't:
    Give it a more intuitive name than "Status Bar"... "status" is what is shown at the top of the window along with the Artist and Song Title, e.g.; how far into the song/podcast/video I've played and how much is left,
    Put the keyboard commands in a more prominent place in their release notes when version 11 came out so we could more easily find the information they decided to hide in this attempt to make the desktop less cluttered and
    Allow us the option of displaying the data size along with the song count and duration just beneath the playllist title. The status bar is a redundant listing of information except for the data size!  Poorly conceived!
    Perhaps Apple will remedy this in a future release. For those of us who like to burn our playlists to CD, DVD and even a thumb drive this information is essential. WIthout it, we're left to guess whether a given playlist will fit on our target device.
    Thank you!

  • How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

    How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
    I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
    I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

    Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
    I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.

  • How do you change the default size of the print batch size for mail merge in Publisher 2010?

    I appended this question to another thread with the same topic but have not received a reply, so I'll try with a new question. Publisher 2010, when doing mail merge, will only merge and print two records at a time. How do you change the default size of
    the print batch size? This is for a 4 page document, 8 1/2 x 11, printed two sides on 11 x 17. I've tried all the suggestions that were in the other thread. The response that was marked as the answer by the moderator is incorrect and does not work. Nothing
    suggested in that thread works. A registry fix that worked for Publisher 2003 won't work because the print batch size key does not exist in the registry for Pub 2010. At least not that I can find. Printing to an XPS document doesn't work. It asks for a filename,
    prints 2 records, asks for new file name, prints 2 records, asks for new file name, and so on. The same for printing to a PDF document. Merging to a new Pub document doesn't work. When I print that job every other sheet is turned over. I.e., sheet one has
    pages 1 & 3 on top, next sheet has 3 & 4 on top, and so on. This makes it impossible to run them through the folder. The same thing happens when I print that complete merged document to XPS or PDF. I have the latest drivers installed for our printer, a Toshiba
    2500C copier/printer connected via network. What do I need to do to to change the batch size to something reasonable, like 100 records?

    It's been two weeks since I posted this question. What does it take to get an answer? I cannot believe it's being ignored, nor can I believe that someone in MS doesn't have an answer.

  • How do i increase the font size on my macbook air

    how do i increase the font size on my macbook air

    Unfortunately Apple hasn't yet given us a resolution independant OS yet so there are two solutions: 1) poor and 2) sad. You can open System Preferences and select a lower resolution in the Displays tab. The result is a larger font which is slightly fuzzy. Or you can change the default font size or magnification in each program (that allows this). Unfortunately many programs don't allow it.
    This problem (and my aging eyes) are why my next Mac notebook will be retina. They scale to other resolutions better than the Air does.

  • HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP

    HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP
    How do you change the window size for Ebusiness Suite after you log in. Currently it displays at 100% of the screen. I want to set it smaller, at some %

    I don't know if there is a way to set this. Some user's may prefer different sizes of window, depending on their job duties. For example, we have 170 Systems document management integrated with purchasing and payables so users shrink the Oracle window to fill about 60% of the screen while 170 uses the remaining 40% to display the scanned document.

  • How do you display the tables of EBS R12 (VIS)?

    Hi,
    My sqlplus does not work but I have an Oracle sqldeveloper. How do you display the tables info of order management module in EBS R12 for windows?
    For example:
    Base tables
    oe_order_headers_all
    oe_lines_all
    oe_lot_serial_numbers
    oe_sales_credits
    oe_price_adjustments
    Interface tables:
    OE_HEADERS_IFACE_ALL
    OE_LINES_IFACE_ALL
    OE_RESERVTNS_IFACE_ALL
    OE_CREDITS_IFACE_ALL
    OE_PRICE_ADJS_IFACE_ALL
    OE_LOTSERIALS_IFACE_ALL
    OE_ACTIONS_IFACE_ALL
    Thanks,
    Fernando

    Hi Fernando,
    The tables for Order Management will mostly be in ONT schema - APPS schema only holds Views, Synonyms, PL/SQL Packages and similar abstractions.
    In SQL Developer make a connection to the APPS schema, then go to Synonyms and you'll see the tables (note you should filter as there are lots of objects in Apps schema)!
    In the synonym SQL tab you can see the base schema for the table, e.g.
    CREATE OR REPLACE SYNONYM "APPS"."OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL" FOR *"ONT"*."OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL";
    Make a connection to the base schema, e.g. ONT.
    Then you'll see the ONT tables under the Tables folder.
    Alternatively, connect as apps and execute SQL "desc OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL"
    Or look at the APPS schema views instead, e.g. OE_ORDER_HEADERS
