Default Search in finder should be in CURRENT FOLDER not the whole computer

Submitted by renatocoral on October 24, 2008 to Usability

Normally when you search for files inside FINDER you look for files within a especific folder and that should be the default option. If you are looking for files on the whole computer you can always go directly to Spotlight.

Submitted by fbcrmn on October 24, 2008 to Usability

iCal can manage tasks, but they are not recurrent. Example: when you have to pay your cell phone's bill every 5th working day. This is not the same of creating a calendar entry. Outlook and Palm Desktop have it since long ago.

Also, (more...)

Feature Request: add a basic drawing tool

Submitted by mojo2012 on November 2, 2008 to Usability

Mac OS has a very powerful texteditor, address book, mail app and a browser. But there is not drawing tool. Why? I don't want a photoshop or corel draw. But at least a very basic drawing tool would be nice.

Submitted by mojo2012 on November 2, 2008 to Aesthetics

Submitted by mojo2012 on October 24, 2008 to Bug

Finder: rename files with different owner

Submitted by mojo2012 on November 2, 2008 to Annoyance

If I want to delete a file which I'm not the owner of, then I have to enter my password (I'm in the admin group). The same happens if I want to move a file into a folder with different ownership.
But there is no way to rename a file with (more...)

Let the user rename files with different ownership the same way as normal renaming. Just ask for the password, then enable the rename mode.

Finder: more columns for detail list view

Submitted by mojo2012 on November 2, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

Why can Finder just show 7 different file infos in the detailed list view?
What if I want to show mp3 tags in the columns?

Let the user choose of much more file infos in detailed list view:
* mp3 tags (interpret, album title, ...)
* jpeg image infos (width, color depth, ...)
* owner infos, unix acls, ...

And don't make this available (more...)

Safari: Implement OpenSearch engine support

Submitted by mojo2012 on November 2, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

By default Safari just has one search engine: Google. This is annoying. I'm used to have wikipedia in the search box.
There is no option to change the search engine nor is there the possibility to have more than one search engine to choose.

At least let the user choose the search engine.

Better:
Implement the OpenSearch functionality (or some similar concept), eg, like firefox. So you could go to amazon, click a link and a new search engine is added to the list of available (more...)

Front Row: Resume playing music from iTunes

Submitted by Flauchhaus on November 17, 2008 to Annoyance

Opening Front row stops the music from iTunes and there is no option to resume it from iTunes in the front row menu. In Tiger, front row worked together with iTunes so it even was possible to close front row and continue playing music in iTunes (which (more...)
