changing file name is slow
To change the name of a file in the Finder the advice is to:
1 Locate the item you want to rename on your desktop or in a Finder window.
2 Click the item to select it, then click the name.
3 The name is highlighted and you will be able to edit it.
4 Type the new name and press Return.
This works but after step 2, I find there is a very long delay before stage 3 (some 5 seconds - seems an age!).
Sometimes, uncertain whether the click has registered, I select again. This is then interpreted as a double click and the file is opened. Very frustrating,
Is there any way to control the length of this delay?
