Hello, Alex and others, I simply use column view as my default view. With that view, I press (vo)right arrow to open a folder and (vo)left to close. When I open/close folders on that way, only the contents of that folder is available. Whhen I want more details of a file/folder, , I switch to the list view with command+2 and back to column view with command+3.
Hope this helps, kind regards, William Windels Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPad Op 7-aug.-2012 om 09:20 heeft "Red.Falcon" <[email protected]> het volgende geschreven: > Hi Alex! > I suppose you are using arrows to open the folders! > OK when you get to that folder instead of using arrow open with Command+O > and you should have only that folder open and not end up somewhere else! > hth > Colin > > On 7 Aug 2012, at 02:05, Alex Hall wrote: > >> Hi all, >> I was looking through my large media collection to find the songs I have to >> practice for Wednesday.
