What a moronic article; the 'panic' wording alone begs credibility.
The primary problem of the article insists there is a problem in Snow
Leopard, the discussion of which includes fewer than 100 posts.
Assuming most of those posts are responses, as in most threads, we can
assume fewer than a dozen incidents.
Why wouldn't we assume those are just clueless users?
Users who did something wrong, and haven't figured it out?
There are hundreds of thousands of Snow Leopard users. If there were a
problem with it's code, it would have affected more people.
Regardless of that, installation reminds people (though it need not) to
backup before installation -- so they're covered, right?
She goes on to describe Snow Leopard as 'plagued' with bugs -- though
damn few reports of any problems at all are out there. How much
justifies the word 'plague?'

A fairly large number of people have been hit with lots of application
crashes on Snow Leopard. Apple has been working with me and I suspect the
fix will be a part of 10.6.2...

Huh? As part of its testing, and because I had a monitor with a slight
flaw, Apple *already* sent someone to my house and replaced my monitor, my
video card, my CPU, my motherboard and more. Oh, and gave me a $100 of
product for my troubles.
That was not the fix to the problem... but worth testing.

My monitor problems were hardware... plain and simple.
The cause of the problem with Snow Leopard crashing were unknown. Apple
opted to do testing by replacing hardware - a wise choice on their part, by
the way. They also have sent me software to help test this... They have
been working with me to get this resolved. I am under a NDA and cannot say
more... but I certainly have not said enough for a reasonable person to
conclude the problem with the crashes must be from faulty hardware.
You just made that up.

A software problem can show itself on only specific hardware configurations
without there being a single thing wrong with the hardware. Now you know!
Or, really: now you *should* know... after all, you now have the information
available to you. But you will actively work against learning. You are
that predictable.

So you're claiming the problem to "the fix" is a hardware problem?

Huh? You made that up. Just thought you should know. Of course, you just

Fa-groon:
3) No Cut and Paste in the Finder - Before I start, I
understand the motivation for utilizing drag and drop. And
for the most part, I love using drag an drop. But when I'm
moving a file from one folder nested in
Adam/Documents/Important/Files/Taxes/NotReallyTaxes/Games/
MoveThis.file all the way to Adam/Movies/Films/A-F/Crappy
Movies/ThisFileWas.moved, Drag and Drop isn't the best
option. Even if it isn't called cut and paste (I'm aware of
the problem with the name scheme), call it "Sticky Move" or
"Smart Move" or something. Just include it.
Sandman:
This works in Snow Leopard at least.
Sandman, at least, was wrong. In a quick look I did not see where Fa-groon
was (on that topic)... so, yes, I apologize to Fa-groon for including him in
Sandman's error. My mistake.
Now see if you are willing to admit Sandman was flat out wrong.
PS: of course you will not... he is part of your clique. You *never* admit
he is wrong.

Take another "quick look" and you will see reference to moving a file but
not to deleting one!
Sandman was correct to state that wrt copy/paste "This works in Snow Leopard
at least" something that you have admitted to not knowing.
> Now see if you are willing to admit Sandman was flat out wrong.
He was not flat out wrong, how could he be considering that when Lloyd
Parsons stated ....
"Open finder, select file, hit <cmd>v, move to new location and hit <cmd>c
Works every time.... "-Lloyd Parsons
You then replied ...
"Oh, yes... missed that."-Snit
No Snit what you missed was that two people made comments one was a simple
typo ...Lloyd (something that we all do from time to time) yet strangely you
didn't notice or you chose to ignore that fact!
And the other.. Sandman, made a comment based on a described action where
the actual terminology was stated to be irrelevant.
So Snit how can several people one of which was you be talking about what is
clearly a method to copy/paste a file yet only *one* of them can be accused
by you of being wrong? LOL

To help you out some more, Wally, here is a program that brings the Windows
file *cut* and paste to OS X:
<http://software.techrepublic.com.com/abstract.aspx?docid=747827>
I do not know if that works for Snow Leopard... but it does note what you
did not know - that there is no *cut* and paste for files in OS X nor
synonymous feature with a different name.

Here we see you once again attributing a claim that simply has not been

Your problem is of course the fact that I have never stated that such a

Sandman was wrong. There is no *cut* and paste feature in the Finder (for

Snow Leopard has nothing like the cut and paste feature for files that

You simple have nothing of value to say, so you try to change

an example. But you cannot change the fact - the absolute
fact - that my comments about you are clearly accurate: you
not only claimed that non-powered USB hubs can only be used

inaccurate and amazingly ignorant statements.
You are technically incompetent and you are a pervert. No

The action mentioned certainly is achieved within SL just as Sandman states!

The post that Sandman responded to proves otherwise!
It was concerning an *action* which does in fact exist in SL just as Sandman
stated that it does, the post he responded to made it perfectly clear that
the term used to describe said action is irrelevant, which again is why
Sandman never mentioned a term ... contrary to the lie that you have told!

I have seen nobody claim that the ability to *cut* a file using the finder
is available in Snow Leopard Snit!
The *feature* as *you* have called it of being able to move a file whilst
not having to resort to using drag and drop as described in the post that
Sandman responded to, and then either deleting or keeping the original as
again the post Sandman responded to made no mention as to whether the
original should be kept or deleted is indeed available in Snow Leopard Snit.
The *cut* element of what you are proposing would remove the original file
Snit *that* intention has never been stated by anyone other than ......you!
The SL method is fully functional in achieving the desired aims as expressed
in the post that Sandman responded to the additional actions (deleting the
file) that *you* alone have introduced is irrelevant to this discussion
Snit!
Sandman was absolutely correct is his assessment of the features within Snow
Leopard, whilst your knowledge of Snow Leopard has been found to be lacking,
which could very well account for why you seen so unwilling to state whether
you actually have it or have even used it Snit!

Incorrect. There is nothing in Snow Leopard like the file cutting and
pasting that Windows has... not in *any* public version of OS X - not by
default, anyway. I have shown you third party products that add the feature
to OS X, but I do not know if it works with Snow Leopard.
> Lloyd Parsons made it clear how to do it Snit, if you have forgotten already

I have made it clear how to do it - use third party software. That is how
you get the cut and paste feature in question.

Nope. But as predicted, you will *never* admit you were wrong. I shall

The action in question is cut and paste (of files). Like Windows has. And
OS X does not.

moving a file from one folder nested in
Adam/Documents/Important/Files/Taxes/NotReallyTaxes/Games/
MoveThis.file all the way to Adam/Movies/Films/A-F/Crappy
Movies/ThisFileWas.moved
If you believe that the above action could not be achieved in Snow Leopard
or Leopard for that matter without the use of drag and drop as the OP stated
should be the case then you have simply added one more reason not to believe
that you have the ability to teach either Snow Leopard or Leopard Snit!
The action mentioned certainly is achieved within SL just as Sandman states,
and is also easily performed in Leopard!
> There is nothing in Snow Leopard like the file cutting and
> pasting that Windows has...
If you believe that the only way to achieve the desired action is by cutting
and pasting Snit then clearly either this thread has taught you nothing or
you simply did not understand the post that Sandman responded to!
But for your information as far as cutting and pasting files is concerned
apart from the fact that nobody has suggested that it is available in Snow
Leopard, I for one am very pleased that it is not an option as I believe
that it would likely cause far more trouble than it is worth especially for
those new to computers in general and OSX in particular, especially
considering that the required action can be achieved easily and far more
safely than having a file deleted automatically the moment that a copy is
stored prior to it being pasted!
Most likely that is Apples reason for not introducing the concept!

moving a file from one folder nested in
Adam/Documents/Important/Files/Taxes/NotReallyTaxes/Games/
MoveThis.file all the way to Adam/Movies/Films/A-F/Crappy
Movies/ThisFileWas.moved
Yup! Easily achieved in Snow Leopard just as Sandman has stated works fine
in Leopard also!

There is *no* feature being described in the post that Sandman responded to
Snit *that* was the whole point of that post how could a feature not present
in an OS be described by a post concerning that OS?
But there was a requirement mentioned and that was to move a file from one
location to another without resorting to drag and drop Snit! ... And it
appears that you are the only person that seems unable to master that
ability without the availability of cut and paste Snit!
Have you always been so lacking in your ability Snit? Is that why someone
had to drive a hundred miles to sort out a software problem that you claimed
to have Snit?
> Sandman was wrong. As are you. Deal with it.
The facts of the matter *have* dealt with it Snit and the result is as it
always is ... You are shown not to understand what you have read!

responding to?
You will not answer the question of course. You will run. You and your

And he is completely correct!
Moving a file in the way described without resorting to drag and drop is
easily achieved in Snow Leopard!
And yet you *still* cant seem to figure out how?... Amazing!
Almost as amazing as the fact that the first seven words in the #3 above
stated a fact "No Cut and Paste in the Finder" that was not a question Snit
and Sandman never argued against that statement!
All Sandman did was to confirm that the action that the #3 went on to
describe did in fact work in Snow Leopard!
Had you been as aware as he then you would not have gotten yourself in the
mess that I now see you in over this matter!

Hint: look at what you snipped.
Seriously, your BS is getting more and more pathetic. Hey, maybe the
following "coherent and well ordered" text will help you to understand:
------
Through the adoption of a proactive stance, the astute
manager can adopt a position at the vanguard. Working through
a top-down, bottom-up approach, exploiting the productive
lifecycle the strategic vision - if indeed there be one - is
required to identify. Organizations capable of double-loop
learning, defensive reasoning, the doom loop and doom zoom an
important ingredient of business process reengineering. The
components and priorities for the change program whether the
organization's core competences are fully in line, given
market realities highly motivated participants contributing
to a valued-added outcome. That will indubitably lay the firm
foundations for any leading company by adopting project
appraisal through incremental cash flow analysis, as
knowledge is fragmented into specialities.
Presentation of the process flow should culminate in idea
generation, the components and priorities for the change
program whether the organization's core competences are fully
in line, given market realities. Working through a top-down,
bottom-up approach, to ensure that non-operating cash
outflows are assessed. Defensive reasoning, the doom loop and
doom zoom presentation of the process flow should culminate
in idea generation, building a dynamic relationship between
the main players.

If you do not understand it fully, ask Sandman... he understands it
perfectly. LOL!

Said the guy touting the Cutting and Pasting of files;)
I know plenty of Winusers who have lost audio files to this
'feature'. That said... I don't see why Apple couldn't implement the
Unix mv command that sits underneath the OSX lipstick. It would
certainly be a lot safer than Windows bizarre 'Cut and Paste'
implementation.

Sandman was wrong. You defended his error. You both made a mistake. Deal
Snit
Sandman made an incorrect statement. You claimed to agree. You then
contradicted his claim, showing you learned. Now you snip the quotes.
Really, who do you think you are fooling? Why not just admit you made an
error? Must you and your clique *always* defend each other no matter how
clearly wrong you are?

You are the one snipping, running, and insisting what you have snipped does
not exist. Then you claim I am somehow the one who is running.
Come on, explain how.

Nobody is talking about cut/copy and paste within a file, what is being

such a feature worked in Snow Leopard. He was wrong... no big deal, we all
make mistakes. Wally denied Sandman was wrong... no big deal, we all make
mistakes. But Wally is Wally and he *will* never admit to his error ... and
he and his clique will show their anger and they will lie and they will lash
out because I noted the errors Sandman and Wally made.
We can debate if the Windows feature is a good or bad one... but that is a
side issue.

The fact is, Windows has this feature; OS X does not. No big deal.

Not sure what you are getting at... are you claiming that since Windows uses
the terms cut and paste in a way you do not like that somehow that discounts
the fact they do?

As I have indicated the OP described no *feature* it made mention of the
fact that a particular feature was not available!
It then went on to describe an action (relocating a file)! The rest as far
as I am concerned was about the fact that the said action is easily managed
in Leopard using copy/paste!
> Applying either of those actions to a file was a Microsoft development,

I don't see why you say that copy/paste wrt a file is arguably the least
appropriate or helpful way to move a file .... It is simply another way, and
in certain circumstances such as the OP has described a good way!
Based on the the requirements of moving a file as RA has put forward how
would you have done it?
Considering that ... cut/paste is not an option, drag and drop was ruled out
as an option, ..... copy paste seems perfectly acceptable to me!
> Both "cut and paste' and 'copy and paste' are operations applied to
> content within a file or between files.
In Leopard/Snow Leopard the 'copy paste' can be used to change the location
of a file or folder if that is required ... Just as in the example given in
the OP of this thread!
I see no good reason to restrict the action to merely the "content"!
> (and no, finding some cite that says that is the way it is used now
> doesn't change the history,
History be damned! It is a fact that to copy/paste a file to relocate it
just as requested by the OP is an acceptable method of achieving that end!
The fact that it may not have been done that way in days gone by is
immaterial!
> it actually just points out why people need
> to keep concepts clear or they lead to confusion.)
Which is why the Apple way of avoiding such confusion by providing the
ability to copy/paste a file and not providing cut/paste is a far safer
method! It must be comforting to say that people just need to keep concepts
clear but the simple fact remains that whilst there are differing levels of
computer competence *that* simply is not an acceptable option!

Sandman was wrong. No big deal... but amusing to see how you twist and turn
to try to defend him and your own claim he was not wrong.

His statement is wholly accurate ... The required action as put forward by
RA is easily achieved in Snow leopard!
> You claimed to agree.
I *do* agree with Sandman because I know that the said action is achievable
within Snow Leopard using copy/paste!
Your problem is that you did not believe it was achievable without cut/paste
because as you have admitted you did not know that copy/paste was an option
from the finder in Snow Leopard, so rather that merely accept your weakness
in this area you have tried unsuccessfully to point the finger at others!

Why would I when I have proven by using Snow Leopard that he is correct?

RA stated quite rightly that cut and paste was *not* a provided option, and

Why would anyone be discussing the ability to move a file using cut and
paste in SL when absolutely no one has suggested that method was an option?
You are the *only* person obsessed with cut/paste Snit because as you have

Can I at least have this exchange with wetpixel without your delusions
clouding the issue Snit? Is that really too much to ask for?
Snit
copy/paste is *not* the same as cut/paste... a lesson that, before, you
claimed to have learned. Frankly now you are just playing games.

And you simply made that up. Oh well... you are a liar. I can deal with
