OS X 10.8 cant remember the View Options in Finder

so that's not the only problem that i got after the uprade but it's really annoying that every time i move files, like from downloads to pictures, the pictures folder's view options are messed up and shows that "Sort by: none" thing
p.s. sorry for broken english i'm trying as hard as i can

OK, so here we go:  Go to Finder, Preferences, Sidebar, and click those folders that you want to show in the left panel of the Finder.  When all the folders you want are in the Sidebar, close Finder Preferences.
The sort feature in Finder is not Global, so you need to sort   Folders you want to view in the order you need them.

  • My ipod is on lock and i cant remember the combination

    i acidentally put my ipod on lock and i cant remember the combination. what do i do?

    Damon,
    From your link;
    "Unlocking iPod
    You can unlock iPod in one of two ways:
    1. Enter the combination on iPod using the same controls you used to set the combination. If you do not enter the correct combination, the digits onscreen flash red. When you enter the combination correctly, iPod will unlock and return you to the last viewed screen.
    2. Connect iPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one iPod synced with), and open iTunes. When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked."

    The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
       1. Use Apple's Express Lane.

    bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
    'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
    ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return

  • Is there a way to find all highlights made in the macbook ibooks library in the case that you cant remember the book in which the highlight was made?

    Is there a way to find all highlights made in the MacBook iBooks library in the case that you cant remember the book in which the highlight was made?

    Some things that might help:
    1. Only the most recently used apps actually occupy memory (used to be the most recent 4, but may have changed in the latest iPhones). After 4 (or so), IOS writes them out of active memory, as it does for even the latest 4 if there's no activity for a long time. So the business of closing all the open apps, apart from the most recent ones doesn't make a difference. Tis article has a good explanation:
    http://www.speirs.org/blog/2012/1/2/misconceptions-about-ios-multitasking.html
    2. There are settings about background app activity that might help:
    - Settings, General, Background App Refresh controls which apps can update their data in the background
    - Settings, Notifications controls which apps can tell you things, which they have to wake up to do.
    - Settings, Privacy, Location Services controls which apps monitor your location - another activity that uses resources
    Hope some of that helps

    If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours.  You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method.  But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?

  • I'm using my old iphone 2g but cant remember the pin can i reset it ?

    i cant believe how lost i am with out my iphone

    If you restore the phone to factory settings, then it should remove the passcode. But if you have a lot of stuff on your phone, I hope you backed it up. You should still be able to connect to iTunes and back it up that way, so then you'll be able to copy all of your content back over when the restore is done.

    You will need to restore your iPad from the same computer that you most recently synced to.

    If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

  • HT201304 enough to get more things, but I cant remember the code. How do I fix this?

    I set up a Restrictions code on my daughters ipod touch. Now she is old enough to get more things, but I cant remember the code. How do I fix this?

    - That is the only unless you have abackup made before the Restrictions were set up. In that case you can restore from backup.
    - To save/transfer app data such as saved games see:

  • HT5312 I dont get an option to reset my security questions and I cant remember the correct answers.  How can I have security questions reset?

    This is actually for my mothers account.  She has tried to use itunes for her new phone but is unable to login.  We want to change her password which I think we can manage but the major problem is she cant remember the answers to her secret questions.  We called apple support who helped to reset her password but we really need to change her questions also.  We dont seem the get the option to change them if we dont know the answers to the existing questions.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

  • TS2446 i cant remember the answers to my security questions.  i have reset my password and added the recovery email account but still cant figure out how to purchase new content. it asks me the same security questions. how do i fix this?

    i cant remember the answers to my security questions.  i have reset my password and added the recovery email account but still cant figure out how to purchase new content. it asks me the same security questions. i also have a temp pin. how do i fix this?

    If you've just added an address to your account then it will be an alternate/secondary email address, a rescue email address can only be added by answering 2 of your security questions. If you already had one on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email addressthen you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
