OS 10.4.3 and List View: Functionality has regressed since update from .2

In the Finder, I exclusively use List View. I like it a lot and it works better for me than any of the other modes for viewing my files.
However, since I have applied the upgrade to 10.4.3 from 10.4.2, I have seen a definite regression in the functionality in the utility of List View, particularly when it comes to cut and paste of text within file names.
Try this example: open a new Finder window in a directory. Press command-2 to get List View (if that's not already the default). Press command-shift-n to create a new folder (should be named Untitled Folder). Press the Enter key to accept the name. Next press the Enter key again to allow entering a new name. Use the mouse to double-click on the word Untitled. Press command-x. "Untitled" won't get into the paste buffer - it just sits there and doesn't move. To make it go away, you must use the keyboard to delete it.
While this sounds like no big deal, it is. I manage a lot of data using my Mac. I need to be able to copy or cut parts of folder names all the time. Changing the Mac interface for an improvement of the user experience is all well and good, but this is a regression and - dare I say it - the introduction of a bug in the Finder.
By the way, this isn't specific to my computer. I've tried it on others and received the same broken behavior. Am I the only one who uses List View and cares??

hmmm is this a variation the copy/paste problem I was having with 10.4.2, where I found it was no longer possible to copy a piece of text from one application to the clipboard and then paste it (CMD + V) into another application or indeed, as the name of a new folder or a file I wanted to rename?
These are matters of the most fundamental functionality of the OS. Those little things we do all the time because we need to. If it's no longer possible to paste in a new folder name, or type one in, to replace "untitled folder" (whether in List view or any other view) that that is surely a bug and not a design feature.
So: I can confirm that I am experiencing something like the "can't rename a folder in List view" except that it's worse - it's "I can't paste anything from one place to a different place, such as three paragraphs of text I created in AppleWorks, into a Word file".

Lost photos! aaaggh! (iPhoto 08). I disconnected my HDD temporarily when relocating.I synced my iphone and iPhoto it seems has rebuilt the library from the old copy

I have two ext HDD intended to ensure I don't lose my photos( iPhoto 08). I disconnected my HDD temporarily when relocating.
I then synced my iphone and iPhoto it seems has rebuilt the library from the old copy of the library (2011. I have Time Machine but I can't restore the last 3y photos as I guess Time machine does not back up the other HDD.
Any chance of finding my treasured photos somebody?

Sounds like you have another iPhoto library someplace - under no conditions would iPhoto revert a library to an older one - you just need to find and open the correct one
Depress and hold the option key, launch iPhoto and use the resulting select library to look st the libraries you have

List View filtered by multiple params (one from cookie) - works fine when groups are expanded initially, but hides filtered items when collapsed and then expanded.

Hello!
I have a page with a list view web part. I am applying multiple filter parameters to it: I have to display documents for all US locations (general) and also filtered view of documents for user's office location. I am setting the user location Cookie and
i have configured webpart with Param to read it. Second filter value is hard-coded (Non-specific location). It all works FINE when i set the list View to expand all groups by default. The problem starts when I set it to be collapsed from the start:
Collapsed group shows correct number of items to be inside but when i expand it, the 1 extra LOCAL item filtered by {PARAM} is missing from inside this expanded group. Only items filtered by a "hardcoded text param" are being shown. And
again - when i change the view and set it to be expanded by default - ALL items are being shown without any problem! Only thing that breaks it - setting of collapsed-expanded for this view groups. nothing else.
Any suggestion on how to work with this thing?
I can't make all groups expanded by default - too many documents, but it only time when it works.
I tried changing view design, other characteristics, but nothing makes it change the behavior so far.
I really want o avoid creating custom "hardcoded" views for each location where location is predefined instead of dynamically read it from cookie. For me it looks like something is connected with PARAM as only these items are affected by this weird
behavior. Thank you in advance!

Hi Olga
I have tried the method you have mentioned, but the jquery function is not working to collapse the groups.
I have tried 2 approaches, but none of them is working fully:
1) Raising the Click event as follows
for (var i = 0; i < links.length; i++)
if (links[i].href == "javascript:" && links[i].onclick.toString().indexOf("ExpCollGroup")
> -1)
links[i].click();
2) ExpCollGroup()
Please suggest or send the correct method to collapse

Report Viewer - SSRS settings/parameters and List Viewer

Hello
I have 2 questions. Using SharePoint 2010, data are stored in SQL 2012
1. SSRS Report Viewer - is there a way to display parameter panel with the question on the top of the web part or left side (it shows on the right side)? Can't seem to find that setting, but seen some samples of the reports that show parameters drop
down on top of the Viewer.
2. Using List View Web part to display the items from the external content (sql), but can't seem to find a way to select the record without going into details for this record. In other words - I'd like to display a table with few records, have an ability
to select the record and pass the ID as a parameter to the report, but also give a user ability to view details of each record. Is there a way to add the radio button or something like that next to each record?
Thank you!
Alla Sanders

Hello,
This is the answer for 1. This is the way I did it. So, use content editor webpart. Add this script to the webpart. Script shows a label and a dropdown list and attach a javascript function to onchange event of dropdown list. Onchange event creates the dynamic
report url and open that report url in new browser window.
<span>Report parameter one : </span>
<select onchange="loadreport(this.selectedIndex); id="cars">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadreport(index) {
var ddcars = document.getElementById("cars");
var carname = ddcars.options[index].value;
var rpt = "http://yourserver.com/MA/SIP/_layouts/ReportServer/RSViewerPage.aspx?rv:RelativeReportUrl=/MA/SIP/SC_Reports/Location_Reports/YourReportName.rdl&DefaultItemOpen=1&rv:HeaderArea=None&rv:DocMapMode=Collapsed&rv:toolbaritemsdisplaymode=152&rp:CarName=" + carname + "&rv:ParamMode=Collapsed" ;
window.open(rpt);
</script>
Hope this can help!
Thanks!

Birthday calendar and list view

Hey, I'm loving my iPhone and have been very lucky in avoiding issues others have had. I do have a slight problem, though. I enabled birthdays in iCal and allowed them to sync over to iPhone. The only problem is that these birthdays from last year are showing up at the top of my list view, despite having the option in iTunes that prevents syncing of old items enabled. Has anyone else had this problem?

If you have them set up as recurring appointments, they may be coming over but seeding themselves according to how they were defined, including the start date of the recurrence.

Lost disclosure triangles in coveflow and list views in home folder

I ran the 'chflags nohidden ~/Library' command in terminal to reveal the user library which worked just fine. The problem is that I have lost the disclosure triangles in my Home folder view in List and Coverflow views. When I click home in the sidebar There are no triangles by the folders. Double cicking a folder to see subfolders shows the triangles okay. Problem is only at top level. All other folders in sidebar are fine. I have relaunched finder, ditched finder preferences and cache, booted into safe mode, restarted several times all to no avail. Also reran the chflags command hidden and nohidden. Would appreciate any assistance.

Please post a screenshot illustrating the problem.

How to change to Icon View for some folders but and List View for the rest

I've had a bear of a time with View options in my folders. I'd like some folders to be in Icon view and other to be in List view. For what ever reason if I change the view option of one folder it changes the view option of EVERY folder. What can I do to make this happen?

I was about to ask the same. I'd like to use icon view normally, but list view for folders containing lots of text documents. It looks like the solution is using View > Show View Options, change the folder to the view you want, and then tick the box at the top fo the dialogue for "Always open in __ view".

I cannot get iCalendar to display in List view on my computer since I downloaded Yosemite. It works on my iPhone and iPad but not on my computer. Any suggestions?

Since downloading Yosemite, I can no longer view my calendar days in iCal in "List View". I still have this view option available on my iOS devices. Is there a setting on my computer to get "List View" back for iCal? Or, is this feature no longer available on the computer?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    3.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    4.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    5.    Restart your router.

List View does not retain date formats from Excel

i am using List View control to isplay data. When i scroll the horizontal bar inlist view, the date format changes to numbers. is there were to stop this happening.
regards
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
Are you getting the values from any live connection or is it static data from the excel file?
You can also try to goto properties of component and in the appearence tab,select the format of the values as "DATE".
Incase you are getting the values from the live connection, you can select a different cell which would reference to the data coming from the connection and use it into the components.
e.g.: if values are coming in cell"A1" then goto some empty cell as B1 and type in"=A1" and use this new cell into the component.
Let me know if this works.
Thanks,
Amit.

How do I get my calendar to "list" view after 7.0 iPhone update?

I did the update to 7.0 on my phone. Now I can't view my events in what used to be called 'list' where all it displays is ALL existing events, dates & times. The only thing I'm finding is I have to scroll through empty hours of the day to get to my event. Then it doesn't give me an exact time. It's a shaded area between 2 hours. If I have something scheduled at 7:15PM, I have to scroll through the WHOLE day to get to it & then it's shaded a little after the 7 o'clock hour. Is that shading 7:15 or 7:30?? I need to know at a quick glance my schedule for the next few days & what exact times they are scheduled. I COULD do this before the update. Is there a way to get to 'list' view with 7.0? Or at least have it display only scheduled events when selecting a particular day? (Which I could also do before the update.)

Yes, the magnifying glass shows the list view. Thank you. But the Notification Center does NOT show the list view. It's still the shaded blocks of time with it stating at the top "The first thing on your calendar today is...". Not the true 'list' view like it was before the update.

Updatable View issues: cannot select FOR UPDATE from view with DI

Hi All,
I have a simple view XY and an instead of trigger on that to insert data into one table which is used in the my view. When I do insert statement on view XY it is working fine from sql but when i used same thing with page process of " Process Row of XY Automatic Row Processing (DML) " i am getting following error.

ORA-20001: Error in DML: p_rowid=xxxx, p_alt_rowid=abc, p_rowid2=, p_alt_rowid2=. ORA-02014: cannot select FOR UPDATE from view with DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc.
Thanks

James,
are you already on 3.0.1.00.07 or 3.0.1.00.08? Have a look at the release notes, it says something about a bug fix for some occurrences of ORA-02014.
Also have a look at the new substitution value/item FSP_DML_LOCK_ROW which turns locking off if you set it to FALSE. See http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.0.1_readme.html#CHDIDIAF and also http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32472_01/doc/appdev.300/b32471/advnc.htm#BCGFDAIJ

Before update on an owa.mail site I viewed others' calendars. Since update, it makes space for the other calendar, but doesn't show it. How can I undo the updat

I get my office email online at an owa.mail.com website. I have delegate access to several people's calendars for work. Before the latest update, when I checked the box for someone else's calendar, it would split the calendar space and the other calendar would be next to mine. Since the update, when I click on another calendar, it splits the calendar space the way it used to, but the other calendar doesn't show. I need this for work, so I had to download Opera and it works as it should there. What do I do?

Could you check for a zoom/wrap issue by reducing the zoom level by one or two increments? You can do that by holding the Ctrl key down and tapping the - (minus) key a couple of times. If that makes no difference, you can reset to the default zoom level by holding Ctrl and tapping 0 (zero).
If you haven't tried it, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Slow, not responding, and not compatible with java etc since updating to 6.0.2. Love Firefox normally but am not happy.

Since updating to Firefox 6.0.2 i have not been happy with the way it is running. It is incredibly slow, keeps telling me its 'not responding' and looking at my add-ons, seems incompatible with the java console, with skype click to call, etc. I also seem unable to look at complex 3d graphics online, which used to work fine. Now they end up crashing the system.
This is a big problem for me, and i have noticed (on your other forums on this website) that others are having similar problems.
Is there any thing i can do before this problem is eventually fixed by firefox?

i tried. like i said, only when i disable all i can watch youtube. i have not checked settings of extensions but i am not an it specialist. i probably would not know what to look for.

How do i get my norton toolbar with firefox 21, it has all my user names and passwords. I have downloaded every update from Norton. Can I go back to 20?

automatic update disables norton toolbar. it has all usernames and passwords saved in it. Every time Firefox updates it is not compatible with Norton Toolbar. When will this patch be available. If not in the next day, how do i go back to firefox 20 which is compatible

The problem with Firefox updates is that before Comcast or Norton get their ducks in a row and get the Norton Toolbar working, there's another update from Firefox and we're back in the same boat.
Why can't these people work together with every update? I realize the browser is free, but if you want us to use it, it would be nice to get everything ready to work properly with the Norton Toolbar prior to updates. Firefox is a great tool, as is the Norton Toolbar, but tools are no good if we don't have the right ones.
