Depends on mounted servers
Right now it's 15, but that could be more as I mount servers.
14
14, but 16 if you count the two applications I stuffed in there are separators.
14 and I use it constantly
I have 3 as various sub-folders of my main Documents. Applications, Utilities, and another 2 sub-folders for speciality Applications and the standard ones. I removed all the time based sidebar folders as I found I never used them.
Wasted space to me
I added a couple folders to it, but I rarely use it. I pretty much use LaunchBar to get where I want to go. The ability to push it all the way to the left out of the way like we used to be able to do would be great. Or at the very least, a preference to get rid of the sidebar, but keep the toolbar!
Eight but
Almost never use the sidebar.
Never use the sidebar
Actually I have two items in the sidebar, Home and Applications, but I voted "0" because I never use the sidebar. I keep both Sidebar and Toolbar in Finder windows hidden at all times. With the way I use the Finder I have no use for them and for me they are only a waste of space.
Never use the sidebar
I use the toolbar, but detest the sidebar. Too bad there's no way to delete the latter without deleting the former.
Sidebar
I use the sidebar all the time, especially in open and save dialog boxes. I have 33, though I only really use the top 10.
Sidebar
I use column view all the time to get to deeply-nested folders for which I have no shortcuts.
Want keyboard shortcut to get to Sidebar
I would find the Sidebar even more appealing to use if there were a way to create a keyboard shortcut to set the focus to the Sidebar, instead of having to use my MacBook Pro's trackpad to move to and click the item I want. Anyone have a suggestion as to how to do this?
Want keyboard shortcut to get to Sidebar
As far as I can tell, the sidebar is 100% keyboard-proof. I've submitted this as a bug on a couple of occasions, but so far, no action has been taken on it. It's the only area of the Finder that doesn't seem to understand that some people enjoy using the keyboard more than the mouse.
On the sidebar
I have one, but really would like to find out how to eliminate the sidebar from all opened windows, since I find it a useless bit of eye-candy that just takes up space.
On the sidebar
As far as I know, there is no way. I too consider the sidebar a waste of space that could easily be done by the toolbar. I've spent considerable time in trying to remove the sidebar and getting the toolbar to act like it did in 10.2 and before. I was only been partly successful, here's a hint that shows how to make the toolbar act more like it did in 10.2.
Rarely Used - only 7
I don't use it much, I prefer the command-shift-H, command-shift-D, command-shift-A, etc. I only use it when I am dragging files around.
3
3 items plus the standard stuff.
Aaaaaaahh!
I do not think this poll is working out because from the comments many folks are not understanding that the question wants to know how many items one has listed under Places in a Finder window Sidebar, and instead think that the question wants to know how many things one has in a Finder window Sidebar.
Places portion is crucial to my workflow
I use it CONSTANTLY.
22
I have 22. Besides the usual stuff; pictures, movies, etc., I have commonly used folders and even a text document.
poll error
Sorry, clicked zero, but meant 1, since you can't remove the label. Correct your results, appropriately. BTW, I find the sidebar an intrusive eye-candy item and want very badly to remove or at least close it ala Tiger. |
