I am having a bit of varying difficulty copying files and I wonder if someone 
can walk me through this in Mavericks. 

I have files in the Documents folder, which does not show up on my doc btw, and 
I want to copy them to an SD card. 

I have inserted the SD card 
and have gone to the file list in the documents folder. 

I turned off cursor tracking and moved to the next file I wanted to select and 
hit VO-space. This said the file was added to the selection but then opened it 
in Preview. It did this for every file I added to the selection. 

Then it began just kicking me out of the Documents folder and onto the desktop 
which showed the SD card. 

I finally selected all of my files and hit command-c to copy them to the 
clipboard. This apparently went fine but then it was time to go back to that 
desktop and get to the SD card. 

I never could figure out how to get back there. Hitting command-shift-d got me 
to Finder but didn't show the SD card by name. 

I have another annoying problem which I'm sure I accidentally caused but need 
to know how to fix. When I go into the list of files in the documents folder 
and want to go down to the Devices list to get to external drives, I have 
several programs listed before Devices and as I arrow down, each one opens. How 
do I get them off this list? 

I know I'm doing something really screwed up here as it can't be that difficult 
to copy files. :) 

Thanks to all.Jenine Stanley
