OS X :: How To Get All Folders Listed Alphabetically At Top
Nov 18, 2007
I've been a Mac users for a good long time, but only recently have I gone back to using it as my primary computer again. Now, after the wonderful homecoming, the sorting on the Finder is really becoming unacceptable. Why can't it list the folders first and then list the Files? I really need to get this working to effectively target things I need to do. Has someone worked out a solution for this yet? Has Apple? You have a folder of files from A-Z numbering in the thousands, and only 4 folders inside of it that are scattered throughout the thousands of files alphabetically. How do I get ALL folders to simply list alphabetically at the top, before the Finder lists all the files? This doesn't seem like rocket-science, but I'm running out of keywords to search on, and I'm not having much luck. There's gotta be a Finder enhancer or system tweak somewhere, right?

Since installing Snow Leopard my Address Book does not sort alphabetically. (I wish I'd not bothered with SL - it's made no noticeable improvement just caused a series of small problems.)

I just got Adium today and wanted to know how to order my contacts alphabetically?! I read somewhere that you have to go to "view" and then "sort contacts alphabetically," but I have no idea where the view button is.

I am having trouble sorting my itunes library. I have numerous different songs by different artists (i.e 700+ lil wayne songs). What I would like to do is sort my entire library alphabetically by artist. Then, I want each artists songs to be alphabetized. Its just way to hard to look through 700 shuffled songs from one artist.

How do I sort my Safari Bookmark Menus alphabetically..So far I have just had to highlight the bookmark and move it with the arrow to a black line that shows up in the space where I want to put it. In Firefox, you can right click the context menu and choose 'sort by name'. I don't see that option in Safari.

In Safari, there must be a way to sort a long list of bookmarks in a bookmarks folder into an alphabetical list. Safari support did not have an answer.Â

I'm fairly new to Macs, just got an iMac. So I'm working on getting everything transferred over and set up. I got my iTunes library working and I can sync my iPhone 4 and my iPod Nano 5g just fine. When I hook up my iPod its icon appears on the Desktop and I can explore it with Finder and copy/delete any videos that I've shot with it. The iPod also shows up on the left side of the Finder window in the Devices area. Now when I connect my iPhone it does NOT show up here and it seems like I must sync any photos or videos I have on my iPhone into iPhoto or Aperture. I would think it should show up in the Devices list and on the Desktop too but it doesn't. This seems funky to me but it does sync with iTunes fine. Is this normal? I just don't know if this is how it's supposed to be since I'm a Mac newbie. Is there a way to explore the iPhone through Finder to manage and copy the files?

I purchased OS Lion back in Sept 2011. The other day whilst in the Appstore-My Purchases I noticed that my app list had all my apps listed as 'Installed' but OS X said 'Download'. Why would that be?

iPod Touch connected via USB and does not appear in the iTunes list. In fact 'Device' is not listed at all. I know the USB port works so it isn't this or the cable. I would like to synch my daughters iPod with her music (which we have done many, many times in the past without issue) but the device does not appear and I cannot find a way for it to be 'found'.

I just noticed (I never really looked before) a bunch of login items listed that mostly I don't know their purpose. The logitech control center for my bluetooth mouse is there. That makes sense as to connect my mouse at startup. But I have something called 'Airport Base Station Agent' and iTunesHelper' and a couple of other do-dads for a couple of other small apps (Rogue Amoeba Schedule Help, for ex.) that I have no idea why they should be 'starting' when I log in, nor are they something I even notice when I login in. Are they some kind of background process goings on I don't know of? If I toss this stuff, would it hurt anything? For example, is that Airport agent thing an important background utility that's needed for my computer to connect to its wireless on startup or what?

How do I find the place where cookies are listed? I found it once but can't locate anywhere. I tried under Safari Preferences>Private but cannot find Private.
I find somethings that says Cookies under Security but that does not list any unusual listings. There MUST be somewhere I can find out if I have a virus, junk, or the like. Safari freezes, dumps and has slowed down.

Some previous items I purchased are not listed there for example Season 3 of the Wire. I checked my billing history and confirmed that I purchased it and not rented it. When I try to buy it again I'm informed I've already purchased it and to check my available/pending downloads (its not listed).

If you look at your account page in iTunes and the iTunes Store there is a section for "Manage Devices". I have an iPad, the new 3rd Gen, and it shows up as an iPad2 under my devices. I think this may cause issues when syncing, downloading and playing content, or installing new apps since they are different model devices.
I only have one iPad and never had an iPad2, but I did buy one for my Dad a while back but he lives in a different city and it has never been synced with my itunes account or library. Has anyone else ever ran into this situation? And how do I correct my device list to show the correct model iPad?
Info:iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi, iOS 5.1

I have suddenly had constant lockup trouble with my 13"MBP under Lion (latest version 10.x). So I did a complete re-install, including using Disk Utility to erase HD, then Lion. I have complete Time Machine Backups, however Lion will NOT list my TM external HD when migrating my data (both at initial startup and using the utility)! Why not? It is CLEARLY listed on my desktop, so I know it's mounted. I don't have to re-install every program, and info manually?Â

After deleting one of 2 admin users on my MBP (Lion), my other computers still see both users listed on the home network. Mostly it's just annoying, when I can simply ignore the "ghost" user name, but in one case my oldest imac is confused and can't connect to either users. There must be some way to delete preferences or otherwise get the network to "reset" its list of MBP users? (It's is a basic Airport network with an Extreme plus an extending Express.)Â

I have a Macbook Pro, OS X Lion, that needs to be restored. Will the USB KEY on Apple Store site do the job?I have a Macbook Pro, OS X Lion, that needs to be restored. Will the USB KEY listed on the Apple Store site do the job? Looking at the listing, it speaks only about upgrading..but a local computer store (no nearby Genius Bar) insists it will boot the system and do the full reinstall.

I have submitted my podcast to iTunes and I was very happy to know that I have been approved to have my podcast added to iTunes. When I found my podcast in iTunes I realised that the episodes that I have in the store are in reverse order, ie. episode 1 is episode 4 etc. I have used blogger to post my audio files and have used Feedburner to create the feed link. Is there anything that I can do to make it so that episode 1 is episode 1 and that every episode that follows is in order of its creation?Â
links to my feed and podcast are here. [URL] .....

I'm very shortly going to purchase a 13" MacBook pro.I was just wondering, will the hard drive listed in the link below work with my new MacBook pro 13"au/ws/eBayISAPI....:X:AAQ:AU:1123Naturally, I would be installing it myself, and since I'd be doing it straight away, I don't think I have to worry about backing up and etc.Now, if it does work, what is this particular hard drive like in terms of performance in comparison to the default hard drive that would be coming with the MacBook pro?

So I've had a 15" Unibody MBP since around November and I haven't been able to get it to work with my Hanns G 19" widescreen monitor. It should work at a 1440x900 resolution but its not even listed as an option when I hook it up. The monitor has both VGA and DVI inputs but I'm using the mini to VGA adapter (I picked up VGA to connect to a projector at school). I don't know if using the DVI adapter would do the trick or not and I'm not willing to waste $30 to find out as I'm a pretty poor college student at the moment.

For some reason lately with my new email address I made with Gmail, a lot of emails have been sent back to me, "Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender"
Part of the message says, "I was unable to send this e-mail because the domain ( gmail.com ) has been black listed due to spam or forgery."
What the heck does this mean? I promise I'm not a spammer, for this is my personal email account.
Could it be possible that someone on the receiver's end has blocked my address or something?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this issue? It happens when I send mail from Apple Mail, my iPhone, and even through Gmail.
