View option doesn't work in Lion Finder after reboot

Hi.
Following problem:
The Finder in Lion forgets the view options after a reboot.
Example: If I set a folder in picture view after rebooting I get a list view.
Or: All of my external HDs folder appears as standard folder (Download) not as folder before I reboot the system.
I have changed the DS_Store files and substitute with my old Snow Leopard files from backup, deleted Finder plist etc., etc.
No way to change this situation... .
Anybody here with same problem and, maybe, with any kind of solution?
Mactheny.

have you tried removing the ~/Library/com.apple.Finder.plist?restart then test again

  • ITunes 11.0.3.42 - Show View Options Doesn't work

    I just upgraded my Windows PC to iTunes 11.0.3.42, and I am trying to enable showing the artwork in the songs view.  However, when try to open the "Show View Options" screen, it will not open.  An icon appears in my taskbar, but when I click on it to see the window, it disappears.  No matter what I try, it will not show the window.  I have tried minimizing and moving the main iTunes window to see if it is hiding behind it, but I can't seem to get it to display.  Without this window, I cannot turn on the Album Artwork in the songs view.  Tried using the CTRL-J shortcut, and I get the same behavior.
    Any ideas?  Anyone else having this issue?

    I had this problem for a long time and I finally found a fix!
    Open iTunes, and then click View -> Show View Options.  And of course, you can't get to the window no matter what you do, even though it shows up in the task bar, right?
    Leave iTunes just like it is.  Then go to your desktop, right click, and click screen resolution and change it.  Let the resolution change and then just let it automatically change back to your previous resolution and you're done! The View Options window should now be accessible.

  • Apple Modem (for dialup) doesn't work in Lion. Why?

    We have no acceptable alternatives for dialup where I live here. Even dialup is difficult. But the Apple Modem does not work in Lion!
    Anyone know why Apple did that?
    And what alternative is there for us (other than resinstalling Snow Leopard).
    Does Apple not know that there are still PLENTY of places with poor or non-existent Internet services?
    Does anyone know of an option?
    Using a MacBookPro, but the problem appears to be Lion so the hardware would not seem to matter...

  • Is it true MS Office doesn't work with Lion?

    I just purchased OSX Lion and while it was downloading I began to read the reviews.  I saw multiple comments that MS Office doesn't work with Lion.  I forced a shutdown on my MacBook Pro because I couldn't see any other way to stop the LIon download.  Now with it back on, the download is paused.  I don't want to resume it until I find out if it's true about office.  Any help?

    Len , MS2008 does require Rosetta. Ms2011 does not.
    W7ox, I tried 2 different licenses. I have 12 licenses here on site. I resorted to reading it straight off the box and still no joy. Very strange!
    Incidently. I can not access the Snow leopard Server either via the normal 'Go' and 'connect to Server'.
    Have tried afp and SMB. no joy.
    I am wondering if the ethernet Dinlge adpater to the Rj45 connector has any hardware issues?? will keep expeirmenting and any feedback appreciated, as I am NOT going ahead with any Lion updates on 12 macs until I know more about its bugs! ciao

  • How do i copy content from one hard rive to another through my macbook air? the copy and paste option doesn't work

    How do i copy content from one hard rive to another through my macbook air? the copy and paste option doesn't work

    It's because of the extension of the hard drive is a Windows extension ( most likely MSDOS or Ex-FAT), meaning you can only read but not write. If there are no important files (or you can copy the whole thing to your computer/mac) you can just reformat the hard drive and change the extension to NTFS (readable and writable on both windows and mac) or Mac OS Extended (readable and writable on Mac, readable on windows).
    Go to DISK UTILITY
    Choose the Hard Disk you intended
    ERASE
    You can choose either
              (I personally prefer this one, you know just in case)

  • Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option doesn't works

    OK, guys, this is the problem...
    After YEARS of testing from Acrpbat 4 thru 9 on Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option... it doesn't works properly and doesn't got the entire site. ALWAYS get an error of memory or any other error but FINALLY you NEVER got the entire site. I'm talking for a big website... not like amazon.com, but a big one.
    I make a walkarround to try to capture the website in parts but Acrobat is not "intelligent" to make a resume capture of the site, because ALWAYS start from the begining instead from the resume position of the site...
    My question is, HOW can get the ENTIRE SITE in a PDF document... without getting errors or stopping the capture process...
    Don't have problem of low RAM memory because I'm in a MONSTER MACINTOSH.... 3.2 GHZ with 8 Core and 32 GB of RAM under Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 in Acrobat 9 Pro.
    If I'm not wrong, the GET ENTIRE SITE option in Web Capture (Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option) doesn't works from Acrobat 4 thru 9 in Pro version... tested, you'll never got the entire site... I'm talking in capture a huge entire site and not a little one...
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks.

    Ok so I go to a web page and select something to print. Once I've clicked print I switch over from printer/micosoft xps docu writer/fax and select Adobe PDF. All goes through with a 'Create Adobe PDF' coming up progressing through to eventually save and store. Once I open the file it end up as the picture above. I have the same version on another computer and that works fine but this particular Sony laptop it doesn't seem to work properly. 

  • I have 3 macs. 2 are Lion, 1 I left Snow leopard so I can access data from my old Quicken Application that doesn't work with Lion. If I move to iCloud, will I no longer be able to access my MobileMe email on the Snow Leopard mac?

    What version of word do you have? The TS3938 sounds like it's a PowerPC app- written for an old architecture that is no longer supported in Lion. If this is the case, your files are fine- you just need a newer version of word that will run in Lion in order to open them. The newest version (2011) should be readily available anywhere, and has worked fine for me ever since I switched to Lion on release day....

  • Music App shuffle option doesn't work

    Stats: iPad 1, iOS 5.0.1
    Music App shuffle option doesn't work.  I have already reset the iPad, removed all my music and resynched.  Shuffle button is selectable, but just plays the songs in alphabetical order, even if I try to skip to another song or start anywhere on my playlist.
    So far this version of music player for apple product is disappointing, the iTunes app before never had these issues.  There are some serious bugs in this Music app, Apple your comback success was largely because of iPods and iTunes, so music is a big part of Apple users use, please fix this.

    Hello,
    Yes I believe this is a known bug in Firefox OS v1.0. [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=883781 Bug 883781].
    The bug is marked as resolved in Firefox OS v1.1. Once ZTE update the Open to v1.1 the bug will be fixed on your device.
    v1.1 of Firefox OS was officially released yesterday. Hopefully it won't be too long before it reaches the ZTE Open. See here for more details:
    [https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2013/10/09/firefox-os-update-1-1-adds-new-features-performance-improvements-and-additional-language-support/ Firefox OS Update (1.1)]
    I hope that helps.

    HI and thank you for your email.. yes we are using a blackberry enterprise server ... but anyway
    I was trying a lot of differents methods without success. Finally I found a solution.
    This is the recets:
    1) Create a backup from the desktop software at desk's client
    2) Wipe the blackberry device
    3) Re-install the account in the blackberry device
    4) Restore the backup from the desktop software.. but PreAttetion here!! in Advance way... one by one the differents option from the checklist... because When I was trying to do a complete restore (all in the same time) the problem were the same
    I don't know if there is another best solution.. but in this case It was fine.

  • Ctrl + numbers switch between spaces doesn't work in lion

    After a fresh install of Lion I'veexperienced strange behavior in mission control. I copied all my apps,documents, settings, etc. from SL to Lion but I noticed something different in Lion. Before I changed spaces by using ctrl+number-keys but for some reasonthis doesn’t work in Lion for me. It does nothing. When I hold down ctrl anduse the arrow-key it scrolls to the next space with a smooth animation. Afterthis and still holding the ctrl-key and pressing a number-key (3 for instance)it does jump to that space with a faster animation. But after releasing thectrl-key and trying it again without any arrow keys involved it doesn’t work atall. Is there anyone hew is experiencing the same problem? Anyone with a possibleexplanation or a way to solve this issue? I’m wondering if this has somethingto do with the clean install because my father did an upgrade from SL to Lionand ctrl+number-keys to switch between spaces works fine for him.
    Thanks in advance,

    Go to the Keyboard preference pane -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Mission Control and check to see if you have the ^ + number keys set.

  • Capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

    In Pages capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

    I think it does work as described, but the description is not very complete. Capitalization does not change any of the characters that you type; what it does is allow some of the lower case characters to display as capitals. If you copy the result and paste it as plain text, you'll see that the lower case characters are still there. It doesn't actually say anywhere that it can make capitals display as lower case, and it can't.
    The obvious way around this is to actually type what you want.
    The more powerful way is to install WordService from Devon Technologies which adds the functionality of Pages' capitalization menu as well a lot of other ones. WordService actually changes the character to the one displayed, and it works in most of the applications on your Mac.

    Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
    The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
    Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
    Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
    Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
    If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
    Thanks,
