There are different Finder window

When I opened Finder on my iMac (version 5 k), I get a window that looks like this:

However, I am able to access the original Finder window by right-clicking on Finder > new smart folder

I'm running on OS X El Capitan 10.11.5.  I tried to restart the Finder via Terminal, no luck there.  It's frustrating, when I opened a folder, it opens one of these new windows in the Finder for each folder.  I end up having to close all when I'm done.  How can I fix it?

In the menu bar, click Finder > Preferences > General. Under "New Finder windows show," what is saying?

  • In the forum Coursera pages there are different icons and buttons, but I see that only holders of palce, small squares with letters in there. Any help?

    In the pages of the coursera.org forum, there are different icons and buttons. They do not display correctly. I can see only tiny forms square with characters in them. Hovering on them can display information in some cases, but it is not very convenient. Although they recommend Firefox, I use Chrome instead. Chrome has no questions here so far. Is it possible to view these icons correctly?

    Many sites now use downloadable fonts to create their icons instead of the traditional image files. So, there are some Firefox settings that might be a factor, as well as the NoScript extension, if you use this (blocked objects).

    (1) in the dialog box fonts Advanced, unchecking the checkbox which allows the site to use its own choice of fonts. To check that:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > content > button "Advanced".

    Here you must "allow pages to choose their own fonts.

    (2) on the deactivation of fonts downloaded in: config. It's less likely, or you remember probably not, but here's how to check on it.

    • In a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.
    • In the search box at the top of the list, type or paste the gfx and make a pause so that the list is filtered
    • If gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled preference is bold and user, set false, double-click it to return it true.

    This seems useful.

  • Affter boot the system, I get message there are files in Windows XP. I wonder to eliminate them by inserting the original installation CD. This is clearly not a viable solution.

    I use automatic updates and have the version of Service Pack 3 on my computer.  I think that this problem can also occur a few other unwanted symptoms.  First of all, web browsing is not as smooth as it should be.  Second, when Windows is running, or that IE is running, it appears the screen is only alive for a few seconds then he acts like he's been invited to another action.  I have to click the mouse to get the site current direct return.  This goes on and if playing solitaire, surfing the web, or by reading the home page.  I had technical support scan my PC for problems and clarify everything that has been identified, but the questions that I have just described have continued to occur.

  • Windows machine is in a constant reboot loop. HP has been working on the device and there is no hardware problem. Microsoft support said there are corrupted in windows files and we were able to repair windows.

    HP is sending me a CD to reboot for Vista and say these original files are on my hard drive. The risk is of losing all the data. I'm embarrassed to say I didn't have a backup or set a restore point in the years I've had the machine
    So my concern is to lose all e-mails, documents, images, videos, and music, a lot of itunes. Microsoft feels that they can get the computer restarted without damage and data. Apple suggested I install a product open source, Ubuntu and use the file manager in this OS to unload the files. I studied a little and it seems too risky.  My question is this; What is the best way to save my files as part of the reboot process?

    You follow what I said.
    We don't know what data is on which drive.

    1 and 2 requires that remove you your hard drive.
    1 means install you also in another computer as a slave drive.

    If you think that labor is out of your reach, see a local computer repair shop.

  • The button behavior is different between Windows 8 and Windows 7

    Hello

    I'm developing an application that runs on Windows 7 and Windows 8. This application is intended to be used with a touch screen. Users must make choice of a ListView.

    With Windows 7, everything works fine. Items are selected when the user clicks on it.

    Things are different on Windows 8. If the user do not type in the center of the item (IE, if the finger touches simultaneously two elements), Windows seems to think that the selection is ambiguous and does not select anything. This is particularly problematic when the list contains small pieces of interface user, in which case the user must be very specific by touching the screen.
     
    Is it possible to disable this behavior, or reduce the radius of ambiguity?

    Thank you

    My computer has Windows 7 and Acrobat Reader DC.  When I open a PDF sent there are several fonts instead of one.  The only difference I can find is 'Properties - font - Arial - Type of the actual is of Type 1 fonts' instead of 'TrueType '.  If this is the problem, how can I change the Type 1 for TrueType, and if not, what could be the problem and the fix?

    It cannot be resolved with Reader. Sounds like an issue that will be attached to the end of the creation of embedding fonts.

  • When searching from a finder window, why are there no visible file path bar? Is where you enter something in the search engine.

    When searching for a finder window why don't the path bar of file at the bottom of the window disappears. Y at - it anyway to stay visible.

    Of course, I would like to know where the file or folder is where spotlight shows its conclusions. Is there a preference I need to change to make the default action to be one in which the path to the file still appears at the bottom of the finder window?

  • SD not recognized by Windows Media Player, but there are songs there!

    Hi there, this may be related to my previous post about the unknown artist (for which I didn't get any answer!) ).  Anyway, there is a new bug now.  I reconnected it to WMP, and it reads that I have an external SD (which I do), but says that he has no songs on it (which exists).  Earlier, in WMP, it registered the songs when I clicked on the SD card.  It the bed as having only 1 mb of space on the card, which would be fair.

    I can play some songs on the device that are on the card external sd (but those entitled 'unknown').  I'm so confused and it's quite frustrating and counterintuitive.  I'm going on a long trip in 2 days (of course!), and this is my first product Sansa.  I have NO IDEA what to do.  Help, please

    WMP is a curse! I find his oprtions synch counterintuitive and downright dangerous for the contents of your library or on the drive.

    That says Windows Explorer is located on the map? You can use it to drag & drop of the stuff to/from the player - for me, it works better than WMP for content management.

    Depending on whether your rocket is set to MTP or MSC in settings-> system-> USB Mode settings, the map will be either see the place as a directory under \My Computer\Sansa Fuze xGB or as a removable drive in its own right with its own drive letter.

    Note also that the files that put you on the memory internal rocket in MTP mode are not visible to the computer when it is connected in MSC mode & vice versa. You can see things on the card or mode, but the directory structure is slightly different in MTP mode.

    Do not use WAV format - there are problems with the "rocket" understand them. MP3 works fine & uses less space. If you want really audio not compressed, use FLAC.

  • Cannot install windows XP it said hard drives are not connected & windows can not find the hard drives

    I got an asus computer notebook windows vista, upgrade from vista to windows 7, now I'm not able to do a clean install of windows xp, when I try to install XP, it says that hard drives are not connected & windows cannot find not the hard drives, so once again installed windows 7, is there a way to overcome this problem Why do I get the message windows xp does not detect hard drives? I even formatted the hard drive & tried to install Xp, but still, I get the same message.

    The answers will be appreciated...

    Thank you

    Because the Windows XP installation CD does not have the necessary disk controller drivers.  You will need a floppy drive to provide the drivers of controller for the installation program, or you will need to burn a CD of Windows XP with the controller drivers slipstreamed into the installation.  A CD of Windows XP with SP2 included may have the necessary drivers.
