Why no view options when searching???????

When you search for files, say like all files with .mov as the extension, you get a nice list of all files with that extension, the name, kind and last opened.
There is now way to see FILE SIZE, WHICH IS WHAT I NEED!!!
I know that right now, there is no solution, how do I get this to the programmers? so that they FIX this???
Leopard was supposed to be BETTER, I am have trouble realizing this

To report this to Apple, send a bug report (or enhancement request) via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug (ER) ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.

Why isn't there any view options when playing music from devices in itunes?

I prefer to play all my music directly from my Ipod, but the truth is, itunes is useless on manually managing the content of large external devices, and the only major reason for this, as I see it, is the list-view only option.
I don't get why they've left out the grid view option. It would be so much qicker to pace through the ipod library to find what you're looking for, and it would look much cleaner. Considering how the ipod classic lacks any editing features, it would be nice to atleast have a more organized view when it's docked!
For the record I have started using Winamp again, as it feature much more options, but on the downside, it's much trickier to manage ipod playlists in winamp. So I rather wish apple would just open up the grid function, and hopefully the coverflow feature, for devices as well. I Can't believe why so few complain about this. It *****!!

If there are music tracks in the Music app but your can't hear them, then make sure that you haven't set the volume limit for the app at the minimum : Settings > Music > Volume Limit

Qosmio x300 - no dual view option when using analogue

Have plugged in an analogue monitor. I can get an image to appear on either the analogue monitor or the laptops LCD but I can't get it to appear on both, i.e. dual view - either extended desktop or clone.
I have a Qosmio (a regret since buying it due to all the problems it has and Toshiba customer service have!). Its an x300-13w and I am running win vista x64.
I have the latest drivers from Toshiba website and looking to various forums I have tried to find a reg key called DisableDualView but cannot find such a key (the key probably only exists in win xp).
After removing the analogue monitor my laptop is now playing up further in that every time it logs in it does so under a lower resolution then flicks back to the correct high resolution.
Have tried turning sli off in case that was the cause of the problem but that was no help.
The problem appears to be that neither the nvidia control panel nor windows display settings shows the option for multiple monitors, both display only a single monitor option.
In the windows display settings I can only see "generic php monitor on nvidia geforce 9800...." and when I plug in the analogue monitor it says "multiple monitors on nvidia geforce...." however the monitor icon only shows one monitor.
In the nvidia control panel I only see the option "only use one display (single)".
Any suggestions on what I might try?
I seem to have some memory of having to change something in BIOS to switch between using HDMI and VGA but can't remember where I might have seen this.

frther update:
have been playing around with the settings... i can only get dual view to appear as an option and to work if i use the 9400m integrated graphics in windows power saver scheme.
when i turn off SLi (by turning the power scheme to power saver) i note the following:
1) dual view works
2) Windows shows only the LCD and CRT on the 9400m graphics (which i understand is the integrated graphics)
3) Nvidia control panel also shows that the 9400M is in use
does the 9800m gts not support dual view?
when i turn on SLi i note:
1) dual view does not work
2) windows device manager shows 4 monitors. 2 on the 9400m and 2 on the 9800m gts.
3) nvidia shows only the LCD on the 9800m gts. there is no sign of the crt.
so my problem is now narrowed down to:
i can't use dual view when the computer is in performance or balanced mode (power scheme options).
has anyone successfully used the dual view option on the 9800m gts when in performance and\or SLi mode? any tips on how i can too ;)
considerign the advantage of SLi i would have expected the 9400 to complain and the 9800 to be running just fine.

Mail: No "reveal in folder" option when searching messages.

When performing a search in Mail under Snow Leopard, there was a button that would reveal a selected message in it's mailbox. That seems to be gone in Lion. Am I missing something or is this yet another feature loss?

When you are searching in the new Mail, you'll see the mailbox each message is in, as shown in the example below:
When you select that message, the header information shows a link that will take you to that message in its mailbox:

How do you change view options when opening a file?

For some reason in CS5 when I choose File-Open it defaults to the "List View" in Windows XP. I have set my windows so they all have the same view (Detail-View) in the Control Panel. CS3 opens in Detail-View, but all programs across the CS5 platform will default to List-View. Any thoughts on how to change that? Has any one else noticed this? Thanks!

Near as I can tell, after doing a bunch of Internet research, the dialog always defaults to list view in Windows XP. Apparently changes were made in Vista to remember the last setting, but that doesn't apply to XP.
I could not find any config settings or registry tweaks anywhere that would change the File-Open dialog behavior to put up Details view by default.
I did, however, run across a downloadable freeware utility called "FileOpenPatcher" that patches the file commdlg32.dll in Windows XP ONLY so that you will see more columns of information by default in Windows File-Open dialogs. I tested it with Photoshop Elements, which I had installed on an XP virtual machine. It apparently stuffs some values into the DLL to change the defaults, and it appears to work on XP SP3.
http://www.netcult.ch/elmue/ElmueSoft-en.htm
It requires a reboot after installing.
This is now what I see after running FileOpenPatcher, when I choose File - Open:
Disclaimer: I did not write this software, and I only just found it on the Internet. You will, of course, have to decide for yourself whether to trust it on your system. Use it at your own risk.

2G Nano View Options in iTunes dont get saved!!!

I noticed an issue with the 2G Nano that the view options (columns with Artist, Song, Track Number etc.) always get reset to the default settings in iTunes every time I plug it in to charge/update music. I know with all the other iPods I've owned the iTunes view options (columns with Artist, Song, Track Number etc.) for the particular iPod are always saved and appear the same from computer to computer within iTunes. Does anyone have any idea why the view options aren't being saved on the 2G Nanos when it is viewed within iTunes?

The other post on this may have been mine.
What I find is that the Music folder under the plugged-in iPod source always comes up in a weird configuration upon connecting the nano. You can customize from there, and it will hold the new column choices/positions during the session. However, once you eject the iPod and connect again later, you're back to the original nonsense columns (nonsense in that they make no sense for a music library ... the Description column is present, intended for podcasts).
Fortunately, playlists seem to work. So, I now transfer all my music in one big smart playlist and, when browsing the contents of my nano, I select the playlist rather than Music as the source folder. It's a decent workaround, but I hope the problem is fixed in the next revision.

How can I export a playlist and later import it, while keeping the View Options

Related question: How can I choose the default View Options when creating new Play Lists from CD's (that I own) just imported in iTunes

The XML file is a subset of the information in the ITL provided for 3rd party apps to query the library. iTunes doesn't make any use of the data it places there. The ITL file records all the things that aren't recorded in file tags such as ratings, play counts, playlist membership etc.

Links no longer open when viewing images in search results, why?

When viewing the results from an image search, you used to be able to click and open a link, at the bottom left of the viewed image, which took you to the origin page of the image you are viewing. When clicking those links now, it simply opens up the same image results window, but not the origin page.

Are you using Google image search?
It sounds like you have the older results style instead of the new one (where a large black section zooms into the page, with new separate buttons for the image and the site).
So that we could see what you're seeing, could you copy the URL of the results page from the address bar and paste it into a reply? For the example, please do a search for something general like puppies to avoid posting any confidential information.

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:
"3-bar" menu 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, try either:
* 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?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

Why is it that when I go to the search screen to find a particular message in a conversation it comes up with the message but when I click on it it takes me to the conversation where the most recent message was sent and not the message I wanted

Why is it that when I go to the search screen and type in a particular message I want to view, my iPhone finds it but when I click on it it only takes me to the conversation at the most recently thing texted and not the particular message I clicked on?

Never occurred to me you can search messages that way, thanks.
Another way to do it is to scroll from the most recent message to the top of the screen and tap load more messages, repeatedly till you reach the one you want.
I like your method better, but with both methods it refreshes to the most recent message.

An appointment from 1974 could not be found, in SEARCH MODE, although it appears in the calendar.

Pardon me for a moment while I (politely) rant in your general direction...
This type of response is not just unhelpful—it is the antithesis of helpful.
This is a support forum. Its purpose is helping to resolve people's problems. Sometimes those problems are going to require long explanations or lots of information. That either comes out in the original post or over the course of several back-and-forth replies; the former produces long posts but takes less time overall than the latter.
If you don't have the patience to read through a long post, then just move on. Posting a "too long, didn't read" comment adds nothing beneficial to anyone. All it does is reveal that the person who made that comment thinks it's important to tell everyone that their attention span is too short for anything longer than a tweet.
Yes, my post was long. Had you read it, you might have understood why it's so long. I'm trying to provide information that people searching these forums about this problem might find helpful. I did this because when I searched for info on this problem, I found lots of people with a similar problem, but no answers that went beyond "restore from backup". Since that advice wasn't the solution for me, I decided that more information might prompt someone with more knowledge and access than I have to investigate. Since you couldn't be bothered to read it, you clearly aren't the kind of person whose attention I was hoping to catch.
Certainly I could have made the post shorter, but I think putting it into a narrative like this makes it easier to follow and provides a context that a terse recitation of bare facts does not. If you disagree, that's your prerogative, but please don't waste everyone else's time by posting a comment just to say that you didn't read it.
I find it appalling that someone who's able to reach Level 6 on these support forums would post a "tldr" comment. That does not reflect positively on you or these forums.
End of rant.

Changing View Options for a Finder SEARCH Results

I want to add SIZE to the Finder window that is generated from a <command> Find.
I cannot add anything to the standard Name/Kind/Last Opened. I want to add SIZE to the search results window. When I choose View Options, the options window says:
There are no view options for the Searching This Mac window.

In normal Finder windows you can select View>view options>*Calculate all sizes*
In Finder search window results, this has been hobbled. Here is the work around:

Out of the blue, my AppleTV went to a screen that had two icons, Computers and Settings. Why won't it go the the usual TV screen with viewing options? Help!

Out of the blue, my AppleTV went to a screen that had two icons, Computers and Settings. Why won't it go the the usual TV screen with viewing options? Help!

Here's what finally worked for me with Apple TV 3rd generation. Out of the box, when setup with wi-fi, it breezed through without any issue. As soon as I powered down and connected it to another tv (same wi-fi network), it got stuck at setting date/time. The remote would help in getting out of it, but the home would only have "Computers" and "Settings" and pretty much useless except for AirPlay. Here's what I did to resolve this:
1. On your main router, temporarily disable the firewall or set it to the lowest setting allowable (a reboot of the router maybe required).
2. Restart apple tv via the "restart" option in the "General" option in the main settings menu.
3. It should breeze through and not show the "Setting date/time" screen.
4. Once it loads up properly, turn on your fire wall as before (a reboot of the router maybe required).
I think it worked for me out of the box, but auto-update to the latest software introduced this bug. So, everytime apple tv tries to synch with the time server, this issue will come back. To disable this, I turned off the "auto time synch" option in Settings -> General.
I am fairly confident that I'd be able to use steps 1 through 4 anytime this recurs. Possible scenarios causing recurrence of this issue:
1. Unplugging the power to apple tv or power failures.
2. OS updates.
3. Restoring apple tv using "Restore" or via micro-usb and iTunes to the lastest OS.
Hope this helps. Please post if this works for you.

Installed itunes 11.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.6.8 - why no Size or Kind in View Options? Can't distinguish WAVs from mp3s!

How can I distinguish mulitple WAVs from mp3s in Itunes 11.0.2 when no "size" or "kind" options are available? Also, how can I recover lost playlists?

Itunes crashed today & automatically installed 11.0.2 when I reopened it Chris.
There are definitely no "size" or "kind" boxes under View>Options, see screengrab. I didn't delete any playlists, they disappeared!

Why no view options when searching???????
