<ol>
<li>Open Folder is not opening my files when I switch between<br></li>
<li>The Dark-theme doesn't look good<br></li>
<li>The files are not sorted in order (is there a sort option?)<br></li>
<li>Crash: I have some larger files, but they open fine individually. When I do open folder none of these files open, and it crashes if I click too many times.</li>
</ol>

<p>I know the files are likely confidential -- is there any way you can<br>
send them to me to test?</p>
<p>Otherwise:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>The sorting is by modification date (newest at top). I intend to add<br>
GUI to expose alphabetic sorting but have not done it yet.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The spinning cursor is while your machine is trying to perform<br>
QuickLook on the document. What happens if you view the troublesome<br>
files in the Finder and try to use space bar to trigger a quicklook?<br>
Does it also spin for a while?? I use quicklook in order to preview<br>
images, etc. Maybe I should try to force it to use plain text for text<br>
files?? I'll explore a bit.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks!</p>

unedited and ... not great ... editing it now.</p>
<ol>
<li>Yes a GUI to sort by date/name would be very much appreciated.</li>
</ol>
<p>Why is the style so hard to see?</p>
<ol>
<li>There is something wrong with my Mac, I'm going to reinstall and format<br>
it. Quick Look is failing for just about everything and I keep losing files<br>
in Spotlight search (have to keep reindexing)</li>
</ol>
<p>I don't know if this is from Dropbox, Apple File System, or encryption ...</p>

<ol>
<li>
<p>It doesn't always find things on my mac, but this still seems to work<br>
most of the time.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>I tried using Spotlight to provide a search functionality for<br>
composer for iOS -- it is very unreliable. Sadly, I have not found a<br>
suitable full text indexing module, and while I could certainly write<br>
something myself, it would probably be orders of magnitude slower/less<br>
disk/memory efficient than existing high quality solutions.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>I recently noticed that Apple Notes began to fail to find multiple<br>
Notes on my devices. After Googling, I finally moved them all to a<br>
temporary folder, and then back to trigger a reindex. This seems to<br>
have worked.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>I'm having some issues with QuickLook when it uses my MMD-6 QuickLook<br>
plugin. I have not been able to troubleshoot this yet.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>I have noticed on my devices, and when talking to others, that it <em>may</em><br>
be that upgrading a single device multiple times eventually can lead to<br>
trouble (e.g. 10.9 -> 10.10 -> 10.11 -> 10.12, etc.). On my iOS<br>
devices, after a couple of upgrades I have started wiping and<br>
reinstalling from scratch. This fixed a variety of weird issues. It<br>
may be time for me to do the same on my Mac Mini (I just ordered a new<br>
MacBook Air, so that will take care of itself.) This may or may not<br>
apply to your situation.</p>

<p>A clean install seems to fix these intermittent bugs for a while.</p>
<p>I won't be restoring from my backup, but I'm making one so I can grab files<br>
I forgot.</p>

Frustrating.</p>
