Hi Ann, I'm running the latest version of Yosemite. I am using list view.
this is interesting. The arrow keys weren't opening anything, so I've been opening folders with CMD-o, and closing with CMD-w, which, as you say, closes everything. I just tried opening with CMD-down arrow. If I do that, the right arrow will work to open subsequent subfolders, and the left arrow will then close each one one at a time. Very weird. Thanks for this, Ann. I'd never used CMD-Down arrow before, so wouldn't have sorted this out without the info in your message.
