Re: cycling through windows in finder

2018-12-31 Thread John Panarese
There is a difference between opening folders in column and list view. However, command-accent should work to cycle in either case. If you are closing windows, command-up arrow should close in list mode and command-down arrow should open to expand folders. This is why I prefer column mode.

Did you ever try opening new finder windows as tabs instead? Then using command-tab to cycle through the tabs? Works splendidly in list view. I find this makes copying or moving files quite painless. When I want to close a tab, command-w does it. From E.T.'s Keyboard...

I use list mode. I get confused if I try to use collumn mode. I guess I could use some practice with that. I've never tried command-o to open a folder. I use that for programs or apps. I assume that when I open a folder it opens in the same window I'm in. that may not be what's happening

Hello, the standard behavior for Macintosh since before MacOS * was created has been to open a new folder in the same window as the current window. I tried 1. using command-o 2. using command-down 3. command-option-O The first two of these in column, list and icon modes seemed to just

it's kind of hard to explain. when I want to cycle through windows I use command-tilde. when I want to open folders as I'm navigating to my desired destination, that's when I use command-option-down arrow for open and command-option-uparrow for close. I'm in list mode. I'll have one window

Hello Lorie and thank you for this info. However, I am not certain that I understand the scenario to which you are referring. For example, when I need to copy and paste files between finder windows, I use Command+~. I don't think I've ever used Command+UpArrow. Can you please describe why
