.Oyvind Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hey guys (and chicks) I've been looking around a while for a tool that adds support for copying files with resume support.. Ex. TotalCopy for the PC. When you're copying 100 GiB's it's a bummer when something goes wrong and you have to start all over again.. And.. Is there a way to make the folders appear on top? For example change the "kind" name of a folder to be 00AA_Folder or something to make it show on top.. As in Windows Explorer.. Hope to solve this!

hecker Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I've been looking around a while for a tool that adds support for copying files with resume support.. Ex. TotalCopy for the PC. When you're copying 100 GiB's it's a bummer when something goes wrong and you have to start all over again.. I was unable to find a finder extension/replacement but you can use the almighty terminal to resume interrupted file copying: http://ask.metafilter.com/66991/Is-there-a...opy-in-Mac-OS-X And.. Is there a way to make the folders appear on top? For example change the "kind" name of a folder to be 00AA_Folder or something to make it show on top.. As in Windows Explorer..Again, there is no way that I am aware of but you could try fiddling with metadata.

U.C. Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Path Finder is an amazing Finder replacement. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/62982-copy-with-resume-support-and-folder-view/#findComment-446410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
