Removing cover flow from finder

Whenever i arrange my files with date modified they sort of come in cover flow under date like today, yesterday. I dont want those to be in cover flow but in icon form throughout. Is there a way to disable the cover flow???

yeah it would work if i arrange it according to name but if i do that for something like date it automatically becomes in coverflow even when the icon view mode is selected. In the screen shot you can see files under earlier are in cover flow

  • Mavericks Cover flow in Finder gets lost

    This is a repost from "Lion" category. Fits better here.
    "have upgraded to Mavericks, and I am having trouble with Coverflow in the Finder. When I delete files it gets lost, showing previews of files that are not the ones that are highlighted. The spacebar preview seems to work, showing me the actual contents, but the coverflow view is for a different file. Also, if there is a long list of files in the folder, it cannot display the files further down the list.
    I was in the middle of a large project, going through thousands of photos in finder, when I upgraded. I had the perfect workflow, using coverflow, and it worked flawlessly in Lion. It seems this got boken in the update."

    I'm having the same problem. If I navigated away from a folder it was happening with for a while, the ghost perviews in the coverflow would disappear, but it would still happen if I tried to move or delete a file.

    Several of my applications (adobe acrobat, CAD) often crash (and need to be Forsed Quit) when I try to open a file using Cover Flow.  AutoCAD release the following advisory:
    AutoCAD crashes or file navigation dialog boxes close unexpectedly in Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)
    Issue
    AutoCAD crashes or the open dialog boxes close unexpectedly while using Open or other file navigation dialogs in AutoCAD on Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks).
    Solution
    This happens when you use Cover Flow view mode in a dialog box and navigate across folders. This issue will need to be corrected by Apple in a future Mavericks update.
    To work around this issue, do not use the Cover Flow view mode in file navigation dialog boxes such as Open, New, Save, External Reference attach, PDF attach, Image attach, Import, Export, etc.
    This is particularly annoying when trying to select a particular graphic file to work on.  I wind up opening a finder window in Cover Flow to find the particular graphic I want to open and then looking for the file name in List View in the Open diaglog box.

  • Stop Cover Flow from enlarging?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to disable Cover Flow from enlarging the view when you click and drag or expand the window in the Finder? I'd rather expand the list of items and keep the Cover Flow icons the same size.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Afraid it is a two step process: resize the window, then resize the CoverFlow section by dragging the little parallel lines at the bottom of the CoverFlow section upwards. You might send feedback to Apple suggesting that it would be better to have the CoverFlow section stay the size you set it when resize the window.

    I think what you want would be better than the current default behavior.

  • How can you get the unknown  previous owners on iPhone 5 Apple ID account be removed old device from Find iPhone ?

    After recent update 7.0.3 iPhone 5 started activation after I put in sim and did not accept sim bc of Apple ID of previous owner was still on the iPhone and can't activate it without the previous owner removing the account from find my iPhone .

    No, you first use common sense then you put it in a company IT policy document. So you are saying that you cannot create an Apple ID for each individual, because it is a hassle? So I guess it is also a hassle to create company email accounts because there are many people "coming and going"?
    Have the IT department create an Apple ID for each user with a "temporary" password. Then the user can change it. Once the emplyee leaves, he turns in his phone and gives the password to IT so they can deactivate his Activation lock and reset the phone. Or do what razmee209 has suggested.
    I guess the above might be a problem in your company where it is apparent that people are getting run over by buses all of the time and dying every hour.

  • Cover Flow in Finder doesn't display Preview Annotations

    When looking at PDFs using Cover Flow in Finder, the Preview Annotations aren't shown. Both Quick Look and Preview will show them.

    It means no other machine on your network is acting a server. Are you trying to connect to a Windows or Macintosh server? If you are trying to connect to Windows, there's no way to browse a Windows network. You have to be in the same WorkGroup to see any servers that way.
    SharePoints http://www.hornware.com/sharepoints/ will let you change your WorkGroup. I always change mine to Mshome so I can easily see other people's machines (which are almost always in that WorkGroup).

  • How do I stop cover flow from rotating????

    How do I stop cover flow from rotating, I have switched it off but it still rotates.
    Phil

    Any idea why that is?
    Probably because it is a visually oriented feature that requires the full width of the screen to show the prior & next albums in the right/left "flow" at a useful resolution on the small screen. I suppose it could be reworked for a top/bottom flow but that would require something other than the rotation of the Nano itself to invoke. Apple's engineers probably thought that would be a needless complication.

  • Cover flow lion finder window

    Horrible horrible horrible feature of Lion: 
    iPhoto is occupied iwth a large upload of images to flickr.
    I want to review some more of the images I shot today in thumbnail to
    open and start working on them in photoshop without waiting for iPhoto
    to finish (this is reason #6099 why I do not let iPhoto control the
    location of my photos on the drive, so I can access them without
    opening their specific iPhoto library).
    I open the enclosing folder for the images, click to view by icon,
    enlarge the icons, then click to sort the photos by date, and....COVER
    FLOW!  they've Cover-Flow-ized the icon view when you do any kind of
    sort except by name. 
    I cannot say how much I hate cover flow--nausea-inducing for the
    motion sickness prone, nasty vile scheme in general--and now, it's
    dropped the images I can see in one glance at the screen in this icon
    by date view of the finder window to ONE, and I can't turn it off.  I
    do NOT have coverflow checked in view options.
    Is there any way to kill coverflow completely in every place they've
    put it?
    (Feedback already sent to apple, BTW, if you have this problem too, and there's no solution offered by one of the bright folks on this board, please send them some at apple.com/feedback--the place to put feedback for programs like finder that don't have a 'send feedback' menu item))

    Support call gave the solution:  instead of 'Arrange by', use the 'clean up by' command under the view menu in Finder.  This does what arrange by used to, and while the menu options are more limited than 'arrange by', it doesn't default to the cover-flow behavior that is so irritating.
    If you hate cover flow like I do, please send them feedback.  If enough of us complain about it, maybe they'll stop putting it all over the place.

  • How do I stop my itunes albums in cover flow from being split up?

    It gets a little confusing- for every possible view of the albums, except cover flow, all of the tracks in one album are clustered together- it works fine.
    when I search for a term in cover flow that would only bring up one album as a result, it comes up as just one album- this is great.
    But- when I search for a common album title term, or if I view every album together, the different albums randomly get split up.
    Example: If I search "machine" in cover flow, the albums "extraordinary machine" and "lungs" (by Florence+ the machine) each get split up 5 times (5 of the same picture, about 2-5 songs under each picture). But, when I search "Florence" I get all the tracks from "lungs" under one picture. (because that is the only result)
    Question: How do I stop this from happening? Its not really affecting anything, it's just inconvenient and flustering.

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.
    Regards.

  • No icon for Cover Flow in Finder

    I have recently upgraded my ibook G4 to Leopard. The cover flow option with quick look in the finder is wonderful. Unfortunately, I seem to be missing the little eyeball icon in the Finder window toolbar. I can access Quick Look by hitting the space bar, but I'm wondering why the icon is missing? Did I get a defective version of Leopard?!?!?

    1) That's the quicklook tool, not cover flow. Cover flow is a black rectangle with two parallel lines along each side.
    2) Finder->View->Customize toolbar->drag the quicklook icon to the toolbar.

  • Cover Flow in Finder (Not Showing Photo)

    Hello,
    In my Finder window, it is no longer showing the actual photo in the "cover flow". I can still press spacebar and it will preview the photo for me, however, when I'm using cover flow to browse through photos, documents, pdf's, it no longer shows the actual image...it just shows a picture of a "creased page".
    How do I fix this?

  • Deleted files still have preview in cover flow in finder window

    After I delete files while in cover flow view mode in finder, the preview and filename do not match. In fact the preview of the deleted file remains when a different file is selected.  Every file below that shows a different preview.  It resets to normal if I close and reopen the folder.
    edit: Upon further investigation I see I am not alone.  Someone else even posted a link to report the bug, which I did.
