Hi everyone
At present, I have all of my documents running off a USB drive, which I carry between work and home. Since I have a number of folders on here that I need to access frequently, it would be very helpful for me to "bookmark" these folders so they appear in the Places section of the Sidebar.
I have tried doing this by dragging the folder over to the sidebar. It appears to create a shortcut there, but the problem is that, the next day when I load up the computer and reconnect the drive, some or all of the folders are missing.
I'm not sure why this happens, but is there any way to make the OS remember the folders I have dragged to the places folder and load those up as soon as I connect the drive? I am able to do this in Ubuntu Linux (it does it automatically)
Many Thanks!
PS - I'm using a new MacBook Pro and iMac, both with Snow Leopard
