Finder not working correctly in Leopard
Hi. Just upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 on my PPC G5. Some problems have arisen during the course of the upgrade, all of which I've been able to resolve except this last one (hope it's the last). All my apps are running smoothly and the system is nice and snappy.
A problem has come up with Finder all of a sudden. I can use it but when I enter something in the search window, all my view options disappear and I get a message saying "there are no view options for the "Searching "drive name"" window. The results of my search will display but there are no little black arrows before the folders in list view and column view is dimmed and inaccessible. The only way I can see what's in the folder is to dbl-click it. If I clear the search window, everything returns to normal but then I'm in another window. I tried Repairing Disk Permissions and trashing "com.apple.finder.plist" and com.apple.sidebarlists.plist" but no change. Anyone have any suggestions?
Mac OS X (10.5.8)
