mac noobie question:)

[sugirox]

I just switched to mac after being a PC user for almost 15yrs!! What i miss most abt windows is how the folders were displayed. All i had to do was name a file folder.jpg and it showed as a thumbnail. That way i had an idea abt what was in each folder without having to open the folder!! Is there any way i can do that on the mac?? I installed the app add folder icon and it requires me to update every folder manually.
Also what is the color profile you use???
Can somebody point me to some good utility apps as well?
Thank you so much in advance

i had to do all my folders manually too but once you have them all finished if you do it as you buy a kit, etc it's not that bad.

I don' tknow much about the apps for my iMac. I think Lynnette probably has more info on that Im sure she'll peek on later lol (I secretly think she loves these mac/techy threads)

Thanks Meg!! But manually??? I'll never be done in this lifetime i'm talking thousands of folders here. i guess i'll get started now and check in later for what Lynnette has to say

As soon as I unzip a folder I assign the folder image. I haven't gone back and done previous folders but anything from 2010 on has an image. LOL!

I use Onyx as my disk utility to clean up my mac. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macos...ties/onyx.html
