OS 10.9 Mavericks - Finder does not show number of files/folders

The finder, in all the past Mac operation systems (as far as I can remember), has shown the number of files selected as 1 of X and included how much space is left on the drive they reside in. Yet now that I have upgraded to OS 10.9 Mavricks that has been eliminated. Why is that? I have looked everywhere for a setting to get this back but have found none.
Anyone else see this as a problem or have found a solution?
Please fix this Apple! ASAP!

I'm not sure why they set it off instead of just using the preferences you had set. It grabs your other Finder Prefs.

  • Finder does not show all the files in a folder.

    I have created a folder in Photos in which I put all the photos I want to use for social media. If I access the folder through Facebook, all the photos are there, but if I go to the folder through Finder, none of the photos I have added in the last two to three weeks are to be found.
    The only way I can find them in Finder is to go through All My Files/ images and then scroll through hundreds of images. This is time-consuming and very frustrating.
    I have tried relaunching Finder several times but it has made no difference. Any photos from the past 2-3 weeks can not be seen in the folder, even though they are clearly there when I open the folder from Facebook.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for your reply. I have only had my new Macbook for a few weeks and do not have DropBox or GoogleDrive (or anything else) on it. It is a very weird problem.

  • Finder does not show all colors from selected color Labels

    Since a view days finder does not show all Color Label colors. When I select either yellow or green it is selected, but it does not show in the file list with details, I can see it in icon and 3 pane view, but not in the detail list view.
    does anybody know why or how? Or what plist files I might need to delete to get this reset?

    Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your labels work in that User acct in list view? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
    Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
    Let us know and we'll troubleshoot this further.

  • Finder does not show all files from NAS

    Hi there
    I have a NAS attached to my mini where music, ... is stored. I can access it from both the mac as well as a PC.
    for some reason the mac finder does not display all the files in the directory even though the files are there (i can see and open them when accessing the NAS through the PC). at the moment I only see this happen in a folder that contains video (mpg) files and some event must have triggered this strange behaviour because I could play the file sometime ago without problem.
    also, some of the files are shown as a folder than a file in the finder. E.g. a clip called last_holiday.mpg would show as a folder (when you open it it is empty) rather than a video file.
    I have tried to re-mount the share, but this has no effect.
    Is this a bug or is there some wrong setting?
    thanks for any help,
    Chris

    I have this same problem with mounted DAV server folders. I can see the files via Windows and other DAV clients -- just not via Finder. Moreover, it does not apply to all files: some of them do show up. And, it does not happen all of the time: just occasionally.

  • Finder does not show new files with older creation dates

    Short story: when I somehow create new files or folders with older dates, Finder does not show them.
    This happens e.g. when I unrar archives created some time ago: the files or folders coming out of the archive get their original date, which is earlier than today.
    I can see those files and folders without problems in a terminal (using ls). But they don't show up in Finder when I visit the same directory.
    When I use terminal to go into some directory that is not yet visible in Finder, and I open a new Finder window for that directory from within terminal (using "open ."), the new directory and its contents will show up in Finder.
    My best guess is that some things have changed in the way Finder and the indexing of my flle system co-operate. In any case, this is higly annoying.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I have the same problem.  I create files and they do not show up in their respective Finder window.  I know the files are there because I created them and I can see them using Terminal and applications can open them.  If I refresh the window by going to the parent directory and back again, the files do not show up.  If I close all windows and open that specific  window again, the files still do not show up.  If I leave the computer overnight, the new files still do not show up.  As brdsutte stated, after rebooting the computer, the files show up in the Finder window.  Anyone have any suggestions?

  • How do I locate harddisk content like I do in explorer. Finder does not show the hardisk

    How do I locate harddisk content (Files/folders) like I do in windows explorer. Finder does not show the hardisk?? Please suggest.
    Thanks

    Open Finder preferences, select General icon in the toolbar, check the boxes for what to display on the Desktop. Click on the Sidebar icon where you can configure what's displayed on the sidebar.

  • Finder does not show the content

    Late 2011 MacBook Pro 2.4GHz i5, 16GB RAM. OS X 10.10 (Yosemite).
    When I open up Finder, it does not show me any files I got on my Mac. I can choose Movies/Music and everything, but they're all blank. After waiting 5-10 minutes some of the folders finally load but, when I click onto my user it freezes. So I have to relaunch it. Which most of the times crashes again. What can I do? All those files are accessible via terminal.

    Hi ..
    Might be Finder preferences are corrupted ...
    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.
    Restart your Mac then try the Finder.

  • Preview does not show any postscript files

    Preview does not show any .ps files in Mac OS 10.4.3. I get an error message "PostScript Conversion Error" when Preview tries to convert the ps file into pdf.
    (I print online banking invoices to postscript using the print option "save as file", because the pdf option isn't always available as a file format.)
    How can I view my ps files?
    (this is a cross-post from the print/fax forum, as no one answered my question there)

    Thanks for the tip. I downloaded Ghostscript, installed it but can't find it once installed and nothing has changed.
    I did however find out that only my online banking PostScript files are unreadable. Other PS files I create with my Canon printer menu are automatically converted into PDF by Preview without a problem. So it must have something to do with the document header or whatever of the online banking files.

  • Finder does not open when a file passes over (mac os X 10.8.3)

    Just installed mac os 10.8.3 mountain lion. As such, it seems with this OS X version the "finder" does not open when a file passes over (in order to move it from desktop).
    The screen dims a little and nothing else happens.
    How can I recover the "finder" functionality that apparently doesn not exist anymore?
    Is it something wrong that I am doing?
    Regards

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • When bookmarking it does not show the list of folders that I have in bookmarks to place new bookmark into. I reset firefox

    When bookmarking it does not show the list of folders that I have in bookmarks to place new bookmark into. I reset firefox and still have the bookmarks from the bookmark tab, Just bookmarking new ones the folders do not appear to place new bookmarks in, only a few folders show

    Click the arrow at the far right (outside) of the Folder field (i.e. not the one in the Folder field) in the "Edit This Bookmark" window to access the complete folder list.<br />
    This full folder list also opens if you click the drop marker in the Folder field and click the "Choose..." item.<br />
    If folders in the list aren't expanded then look for a possibly faint arrow icon to expand/open the folders.

  • Finder does not show flash drive but it is mounted.

    After reformatting a drive to FAT it was automounted to the /Volumes directory. I checked and it is there with all of the content there. Disk Utility also is telling me that it was mounted. The weird part is that the Finder does not have the drive in its sidebar. What else is weird is that other drives come up in the sidebar. Reformatting the same device and changing the volumes name will make it come up.
    How can I make it show up in the finder?
    Is it possible that I somehow blacklisted volumes with that name?

    well then turn that option on temporarily in finder preferences->general.

  • Finder does not show new files, does not acualize

    In Mountain Lion I realize that the finder more than once does not show the actual content of folders. Even a "start new" from the stop-dialog did not change it.
    A restart of the whole system did.
    Pathfinder in opposite did show the new files immediatly.
    Does anyone have the same problem?
    Any suggestions?
    Thx.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    It's a while since i used v5 but I think this is true.
    Whereas with early version of iPhoto there was a separate folder for each album, starting at v5 the app doesn;t do that. Instead the album information is stored as part of the main database file. At heart, it's a direction to the app to display certain pics together. The advantage being that a single pics can be many, many albums with no wasted disk space.
