This may be a silly question but when I have multiple finder windows open and I switch from one to the other then single click on a file, it opens the file.
This is really bugging me as I only want to select the file (to move it etc). Is there any way to prevent single click file opening?
Does anyone know of an application, utility, etc. that will allow one to �open� a folder in the dock with a single click instead of clicking on the folder and selecting open from the menu?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a G4, dual 450, 1G Ram running 10.4.11. Recently after downloading and opening an .rar file, a file named .DS_Store appeared on the desktop. I have since deleted the .rar file, but cannot delete the .DS file. It is appearing now in all of my programs, including my camera when I plug it in. I've tried ClamXav, MacScan, and DnsChangerRemovaltool, also What'sKeepingMe, but nothing can remove it. Info says it's a document, 16 KB, and it reads as date created the last time I turned the machine on. Can anyone tell me what this is and how I can get rid of it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I'm in finder or on my desktop I'm able to hover above an MP3 and it brings up the option to play it without opening itunes or anything. However when I'm in the documents folder in the stack at the bottom next to the dock and I hover above an MP3 it doesn't give me that option. You have to actually click it to open it in itunes or another program to listen. Is there a setting for this? Is it possible to have it just play there the same way as if it was on the desktop or in a finder folder?

I have been given a ~400 slide Powerpoint Presentation, and need to extract all the text from it.
However, when trying to open it in Powerpoint 2004, it just quits everytime it attempts to open the 90Mb file.
Keynote has had more success, but I really do not want to be copying and pasting every slide into a document.
lately my Quicktime X gives me a delay of 10-15 seconds and a beachball before playing any file. Quicktime 7 plays without a hitch instantly. This is true of files on all locations on my Mac.
The file opens instantly, I see the first frame, but before it plays it will berachball. It is true for video and audio files.
