When I try to export or import files from an external hard drive og ssd Finder crashes and files show up empty with the date 24.january.1984. Anybody know what could be wrong? Do I have to boot OS X Mavericks or can I reinstall Finder?
Well, you can't reinstall Finder without reinstalling Mavericks. However, there may be other problems that are causing your files to show up empty. Run Disk Utility and do a verify on that external hard drive to see what you come up with.
