Hi Howard. My system is a mac book 13 with 2 gb ram and cpu at 2,13 ghz. runns smoothly on other tasks and browsing folders with finder but just that big music folder with finder gets it busy. In Itunes it works ok but I just wanted to copy a folder out from the big music folder with finder and then discovered this "busy" thing. I red somewhere that you can switch off calculation of mapp sizes but I can't find that so maybe that was in earlier version of the o s. Regards Tony
