Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.finder.plist file to the Trash
Then try the Finder.

  • Alias not working in the dock

    Hi all,
    I am working on an intelmac 2x2.26 Quad Core Xeon, on 10.5.7
    I am having problems with adding a folder in the dock. I work off a server and when I drag a folder to the dock, it works fine until I restart. After the restart the icon is still in the dock but when it is clicked nothing happens. I have already checked the following:
    • Already connected to network before clicking the folder in the dock
    • The original folder still exist
    The strange thing is if I make an alias on my desktop of the folder, the link is remembered after restart, and when I put the alias from the desktop into the dock, the link to the folder is remembered in the dock too, but I really need to have the folder working in the dock as it speeds things up alot and also its bugging the **** out of me.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi,
    this is a good workaround, but the subfolders often change during the day so I would have to keep updating the main folder with new aliases, also this doesn't really get to the bottom of why the dock is not remembering the shortcut created from the folder on the server

  • What case works with the dock

    Hey, I'm looknig for a case that will work with the dock. Are there any out there? I really like using the dock to sync my phone and I'm not happy loosing that feature in order to use a case.
    I'm already aware that the iSee case will not work with the dock http://www.contourcase.com/isee/iseeiphone/ . What about the other cases out there?

    This looks like it might do the trick:

  • Mail is not working. The app opens because I see a light on under "Mail" in the dock.

    Mail is not working. The app opens because I see a light on under "Mail" in the dock, and I see the menu at the top of my screen, but I don't see the app itself or any windows. It is like it is running in the background, but I can't see it. Everthing is subdued when I click on the choices up in the menu. I have tried "Force Quit" and then re-opening the mail app several times, and have rebooted my notebook twice. What is weird is that this started right after I changed my password in a browser (it is a gmail account). I went into the System Preferences on my MacBook and changed my password there as well, so it should be setup properly to open. I am running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.   Any help anyone can provide is much appreciated.

    The current Mail version for 10.6.8 Snow Leopard is 4.6 (1085).   Run Software update or the combo updater ... Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1

    Hi,
    Try this ... reboot your Mac and see if double clicking works again.
    Also, you can just select the Application you like to open and hold down the Command+O to open.
    Also, did you check your setting for the mouse in system preferences.

  • Just installed ios 7 on my 4s, and I have two issues: 1) control centre: the music controls do not work, only the volume adjust slider works; 2) in mail, where do you find the setting to control how many messages you want your inbox to retain?

    Same problem here on my 4s: Control center music controls do not work.
    Since this thread has two issues, I'm going to start a new one with only the music control bug. Topic: iOS 7 Control Center Music Controls Not Working On iPhone 4s

  • Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l nudge cursor

    Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l produce cursor nudges.

    It's a new machine - and the Thunderbolt Display is meant to work with it. You need to just make an appointment at your local Apple Store and have them fix whatever is wrong.
    If you like, you could always try a SMC reset and a PRAM/NVRAM reset to see if either of those will get your keyboard back in working order...

  • Ipod 4 gen not working on bose dock and car dock since i update the ios 6.1.6

    ipod 4 gen not working on bose dock and car dock since i update the ios 6.1.6?????

    Have you went to Bose's support site?
    Sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility
    - 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.
    - Reset the Bose unit
    - 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem then there is nothing you can do except see it Base has firmware update.

  • HT1368 My wishlist is not working on the app store i can not find the add to wishlish icon but it is working fine with the itunes store so i am able to add films and music but not apps does anyone know how to fix this

    My wishlist is not working in the app store on my ipad it is woking fine in itunes store so i can add films and music but the icon "add to wish list" is not available on the app store so does anyone know how to fix this 

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • IPod 3rd gen not working with universal dock

    My old iPod 3rd gen (15GB, touch wheel, dock connector) worked great with the old dock, until the latter started scratching noises when outputting audio to my stereo. Still charges the iPod though.
    So, I tried old iPod with the universal dock I got for my Touch and found the following problems:
    1. iPod is not being charged through new dock plugged to wall adapter
    2. touch wheel menu control is not working as long as iPod sits in universal dock plugged to the wall adapter - the sound of clicks is all I get, but no control of menu or any other function. In order to select playlist or use any other function through touch wheel or any of 4 buttons I need to unplug power from the dock (it is not charging anyway)
    3. remote is not working at all
    Otherwise playback is OK.
    Any ideas what may be the culprit here? Apple states that Universal dock is compatible with 3rd generation of iPod and up.

    Hello Andrew,
    What a coincidence as I too have had to find a new dock for my 3rd gen ipod. This week I purchased an Apple AV Connection kit - but found that it would not charge the ipod or respond to the remote. I also bought and tried a Belkin AC adapter with cable to power up the ipod but it too would not charge the ipod.
    To see if these units were working I connected them to a friend's brand new ipod classic and both the Belkin and Apple AV Connection Kit worked fine - so there is something different about the 3rd gen ipod.
    I'm not sure if this helps you - but at least you know it's not just your ipod that is not working with the new dock.

    Hi my name is Silvana Pires,I purchased an I Phone 4 S Model A 1387 EMC 2430 SCC.ID DCG E
    2430 AIC.579 C-E 243 A in California one year ago,Unfortunately its Not working well the screen is getting black,and the phone is in good shape I can prove it,the Apple support in Brazil doenst work like in USA.
    I look forward to your reply and a resolution of this problem.
    Thank you very much!!!

    You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
    (1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
    (2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
    (3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
    (4) Add some SARE rules:
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
    70sareadult.cf
    70saregenlsubj0.cf
    70sareheader0.cf
    70sarehtml0.cf
    70sareobfu0.cf
    70sareoem.cf
    70sarespoof.cf
    70sarestocks.cf
    70sareunsub.cf
    72sare_redirectpost
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
    backhair.cf
    bogus-virus-warnings.cf
    chickenpox.cf
    weeds.cf
    Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
    Then stop and restart mail services.
    There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

  • Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine, mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar.

    Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
    If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
