How do I get Lion to preserve the folder view I select?

I like to have different folders set up different ways. Some I always want arranged by name in icon view. Some I want arranged by date created or date modified. Others I want to see a list view. In Snow Leopard I could set the view once and then each time I opened the folder again I got the same view. With Lion I seem to get a random arrangement each time I close and re-open a folder. It is really infuriating. Is ther any way to get the folder view settings to stick?

If you're transferring to another library, why are you exporting to the Finder (which is what Desktop, thumbdrive and DropBox are). This doesn’t understand manual sorting from iPhoto.
Here's one (of several) way(s) to do what you want:
Make an Album of the photos, then drag the pics into your preferred order.
Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the FInder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.

OS X 10.5.8 won't update to a newer version, how do I get Lion without having the App Store?

I have a MacBook Pro OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a), Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory. Why won't it update to a newer version with App Strore and how can I get it upgraded to Lion?

Apple - OS X Lion - Sign up to be notified when Lion is available.
Apple - OS X Lion - Get Lion in July. Only from the Mac App Store. Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.

How do I get Iphoto to preserve the sort order when I transfer an album?

Here's my problem. I carefully sorted my album of 230 photos manually. Each photo was then numbered from 1 to 230. Then I used IPhoto Library Manager to transfer this album someplace else -- to my desktop, to a thumb drive, to Dropbox--- In every case, when I did that, the photos themselves transfered just fine, but the sort order I had so carefully constructed has fallen apart and cannot by retrieved. Even when I close and then reopen an Album I have transferred to my Desktop, it loses its sort order. This is driving my crazy because I need to transfer this album so that it preserves the slideshow I have designed for it. A slideshow, of course, demands preserving the order of the slides.
In short, how can I preserve the sort order of an album when I transfer it out of one library to another?

How can I get Thumbnails back in the file View Menu?

My computer died and I had to re-install CS6. I had originally installed it to an external hard drive expecting that I could just hook up a new computer when the time came and everything would work as before. Not to be. I contacted Adobe and got the program re-installed. Now, when I open a file, I am unable to change the view in the View Menu to 'thumbnail' because 'thumbnail' is no longer an option. How can I get that option back?
Thank you.

Are you talking about in the File>Open dialog in photoshop cs6?
Could you post screenshot of what you see?
Windows 7 doesn't have a thumbnail option as windows xp, but you should be able to at least see the jpeg thumbnails without any third party programs.
If you pick Tiles or one of the three Icon options at the top, your not able to see the jpeg thumbnails?

My 2nd gen ipod touch will only sync some of the music selected. How do I get to synch all the music I have selected from i-mac with itunes 11

My ipod touch will only sync some of the music selected. It only wants to sync the newest music and will not sync previous music even though some of these songs were previously on the ipod touch.   I am connecting to a imac with itunes 11.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Hi David,
In 8.5 or 8.6, there is a shipping example that contains the filter design subVI you need:
examples\R Series\FPGA Fundamentals\Analysis and Control\Filter and DC-RMS\Using Reconfigurable Butterworth Filter - R-series.lvproj
In LabVIEW 2009, there is a new palette under My Computer: FPGA Interface>>Scaling, with a new Butterworth Coefficients VI on it. That will produce the quantized coefficients you need in the format expected by the FPGA Butterworth Filter.
Regards,
Jim

What model of Mac? I have a MBP running 10.7.3 and do not have that issue. From the other couple of posts I've seen about it, it seems to be maybe an issue with some iMacs? Have your tried searching the Lion or iMac forums for similar issues, just to see if anyone has hit on why it is happening?

and files? at the bottom of the window as in snow leopard.
I miss this and rely on it to monitor the available space on the hard drives ect.

Dov, that is close but not in the status bar but at the bottom of the volder window. Surely , everyone can't have forgotten snow leopard and leopard et al already, where you could could to display at the bottom of all ovened folders to see the status of the the files and hard drive. Boy I WISH I HAD A SCREEN SHOT OF WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.
Yes you can get the info from get info and in the list view. But we use to be able to have a line at the bottom that gave a running total, which to me was very useful as I throughput mondo files to discrete drives thoughout my network for sorting photos by topic to seperate drives.
ah here we go a screen shot off my macbook running snow leopard, it is that grey bar at the bottom which says "4 items 137,26 GB available",that I am wanting in the LION window bottom.

I rebooted my old MacBook. How do I get Lion back on there? I purchased it from the Apple Store Application

Just was wondering how to get Lion back on the computer, now that I've done a dull re-boot. Any help on this would be great!

Rebooting does not normally revert to a different version of the OS.
So what version is currently running?
And did you purchase Lion at the app store? If so, sign in and it should show up under Purchases and you can download and install it again.

I cancelled my OS lion download after a few minutes and told them I do not want it and they have not put the credit back on my account. I reported the problem and have heard nothing after a week. How do you get to talk to the "Store"

Boot into Internet Recovery
If your Mac problem is a little less common — your hard drive has failed or you’ve installed a hard drive without OS X, for example — Internet Recovery takes over automatically. It downloads and starts Lion Recovery directly from Apple servers over a broadband Internet connection. And your Mac has access to the same Lion Recovery features online. Internet Recovery is built into every newly-released Mac starting with the Mac mini and MacBook Air.
