[QUOTE="surfwax95, post: 278026, member: 12561"] Open Terminal and copy/paste this into it: [b]defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE; killall Finder[/b] Then hit Return to execute. Then, after you're done managing the files, turn it back to normal with: [b]defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE; killall Finder[/b] Then hit Return to execute. :) [/QUOTE]
