  Seems like a huge hassle....

  Is there are simple way of doing this on a mac?
  PC has it figured out.

  Thanks

  Just get info and copy from the "Where:" info.

  • Super simple.– monospaced1/13

    How is this done on a PC?– monospaced2/13

    its in the path bar.. like a url on your web browser

    right click on address bar on PC - even easier– fadein114/13

    Doesn't work in XP the way you describe. In fact, I still can't get the file paths– monospaced5/13

    change your folder view options and make the path visible in XP– fadein116/13

    how do I change the folder view options? this doesn't seem easier in any way yet– monospaced7/13

    huh, figured it out, but this was decidedly more complicated than on a mac, in my opinion– monospaced8/13

    you've got a weird setup - always been easy to do– fadein119/13

    yawn. another macs better than windows boreathon. yawn zzzzz– fadein1110/13

    no it's not, fadein, not at all. And my setup, it's not weird, it's default.– monospaced11/13

    lol@xp and he criticises windows... perhaps use an os that isnt antique– fadein1112/13

    fadein, you fucknut, did it ever cross your idiot mind that it's not up to me?– monospaced13/13

  Hm. I've always wondered this myself. I can copy from "where" in get info. Problem is that it doesn't present itself as a link. PathSnagger likely does it.

  • a link? it's just a goddamn path– monospaced
