Re: Refresh finder in Mac OS X 10.3.7

[Joseph Welling]

I'm not 100% sure, but it seems like if you just click on the window 
(or maybe you have to click on the file itself).  I often have the view 
sorted by "date modified" so as to see my most recently changed files 
first--sometimes I noticed what you have observed--that it doesn't 
always update immediately.  I think it matters which window is active 
(on top), whether the change was a "save" or a "save as", and probably 
what the app does when it saves.

But I'm just guessing--it sure seems like when I click on a file in a 
non-updated window, it updates.

FWIW.

How do you refresh the file sizes in Mac OS X 10.3?
I open a new finder window and the file size is displayed, along with 
the
name of the file and the modification date. The size of the file 
sometimes
automatically changes and sometimes it does not. Is there a command to 
force
a refresh.

In windows you press F5 to force a refresh.
I work with a lot of large files and I use the file size as an 
indicator of
the job completion.
