I think this is similar to Bill's empty DVD problems but I'm actually wondering what the solution is when I get into these situations. If I plug in a USB drive which happens to have no files yet, the finder goes into that damn busy stuff and I can't get out of it any way, any how. I always end up turning off the computer and power back up. Is there any other way to get out of those busy loops? Unplugging the drive did not help the situation. As soon as I copy a file on to that empty partition, then all is fine. What I do is go into the terminal and use the cp command to do this. I read Bill's message about deleting finder settings and then it straitens out for a bit but obviously, that doesn't sound like a good solution as his problem kept coming back. If I use Command O to open the drive, I also get the dreaded "finder busy" crap so How does one get out of this loop when you get caught in it? I could see this happening every time you stick in a blank USB stick or SD card or something.
I sure hope Apple gets this serious bug fixed soon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
