G'day all,
Is it just me or is it a Mac OSX wide thing where if you have an empty folder somewhere inside a folder structure, the finder can't seem to calculate the total size of the containing folder?
For me, it's been like this since maybe 10.4 - definitely 10.5 and now 10.6.
If I Get Info to see what a folder's total size is and it doesn't produce any results - just sits there with "calculating size" - if I dig about inside the folder structure and remove any empty folders, the Info window can then happily display the total size pretty quickly.
It's a ROYAL PAIN and I'm hoping it's just me having this issue.
Chrz,
Cojcolds
