Finder: Folders first please! (folders on top)

Wrote on December 30, 2009, 12:07am

yeah I know that I prefer folders on top, but many of my mac-user friends prefer it as is. There is a workaround for it (here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=208068) where you change the name id for a folder from 'folder' to '~folder', so that when you arrange by kind, folders appear at the top.

Trying to rename a folder in use results in unhelpful dialog

I can get this to come up when I copy a large file/folder from another computer on my network at home, and while it is still copying to mine I try to change the filename. Then, this error appears. Not sure how the OP got it to appear (maybe the same way), but +1 it is a baffling error message.
