Re: Command o Not working Inside Dropbox

[Jonathan Cohn]

Hello,

I looked at this a bit on my system, and my Dropbox folder will not keep its 
layout when put into Icon or List view, but always drops into column mode.  
Column mode will generally not pay attention to command-O or the command-up and 
command-down keystrokes. 

I then opened View options command-J and always open in column mode was 
checked. See if this is the case for you too. 

Best wishes,

Jonathan

Re: Command o Not working Inside Dropbox

[Brian Fischler]

Hey that is awful that people were telling you to shut up about it as this is 
an issue that only affects specific Macs not all. It started with El Cap for me 
but not others and has been confirmed with Apple Accessibility as a bug that 
has been kicked up to the developers. Hopefully it will be fixed for us who 
have the issue in Sierra.

Re: Command o Not working Inside Dropbox

[Ray Foret jr]

Well, this is disturbing.  You know, some people were complaining about this on 
a podcast:  and, when I told them I had no problems with Command+o running 
Lcapitan, I was told to shut up and that I did not know what I was talking 
about.  In any case, I have no problem with Command+o opening files or folders: 
 but, I hear aknowledge that there are some who do have this problem.  What I’d 
love to know is this.  What Macs have this problem?  Just in case I decide to 
go in the market for a newer (if not brand new) Mac?

Re: Command o Not working Inside Dropbox

[Brian Fischler]

Actually on certain Macs running El Cap there is a bug where VO O will not open 
folders as I have it and spent hours on the phone with Apple Accessibility 
reporting it. To work around this do a command down arrow to open a folder and 
command up arrow to close the folder.

I had a sighted person using my computer yesterday, so I guess he changed that.

Command o Not working Inside Dropbox

[Jeff Berwick]

Hi all,

All of a sudden today, when I go into my Dropbox, I cannot use Command + o to 
open a folder.  If I do a [VO] + [Shift] + m and choose open in a new tab, it 
works.  This is only happening inside my Dropbox folder.

Any thoughts?

Tia, 
Jeff
