  • I've seen this problem posted elsewhere. I don't think that user has found a resolution yet. If I run across it again, I'll provide you with a link, as long as I remember where this thread is(!). I suppose you've tried to adjust the scrolling speed …

  • Have you added any third party enhancements for your browser? Which browser is this happening on regularly? Have you tried a different browser?
    in I can not post on Apple's forum Comment by gregg October 2009
  • 1. That was my first thought as well. 2. Doubtful, since the folder opening changed after replacing the plist file. So, if it wasn't #1, my next curiosity is whether or not this happens when you log in under a different user account. Have you …

  • I also discovered that once I set the flash drive's window to be stripped of the sidebar, it will no longer open an enclosed folder in the same window. But, once the second window is open and adjusted (size, position) it retains those characteristic…

  • I was afraid that I was asking the impossible. But, I found a solution that works by checking Mac Help. If you click the oval in the upper right corner of a Finder window, the sidebar and toolbar toggle off and on. It is window-specific. So, I inser…

  • Was O4M 2010 announced previously? To me, that's the real news in that article.

  • Yes, thanks. I did visit that site, and found a page of Enclosures, but none were IDE. I've bookmarked that in "case" I decide to do it soon. With over 35GB available, it's not an emergency.

  • Ok, and since there probably aren't lots of topics devoted to hardware that you can no longer buy new, Old Hardware doesn't have a forum of its own. Such topics have to go somewhere, but when presented with only Future and Current, it didn't occur t…

  • Thanks for explaining. My point remains. I am a reasonably intelligent college graduate. I thought about the "proper" forum for my topic before selecting it. Perhaps if the descriptions of the forums went into more detail, that "fine line" would …
