Panther - item info on desktop problem

[dc-arena]

I have my icons on my desktop set so they show the total space of the drive and the remaing space. Handy for CD-Rs etc and also so at a glance you can see how much HDD space is free.

Suddenly tonight the main volume icon (HDD icon) only shows total space available. It no longer shows remaing space.

I have tried putting a CD-R in and that shows remaining space ok.

I went into File Info to see if unchecking then checking the option would help, but it hasnt.

The only thing I have installed tonight is Candybar, and I have only changed the icon on the CD-Rs icon, not anything else.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

Dunno about solving your problem but if you select a folder/file and press Apple I it will display both those things.

That is if you mean OSX Panther by Panther BTW.

Yeah OSX Panther.

Yeah I know about Apple+I, but there must be something wrong somewhere to cause this issue.. Weird one for sure.

Don't know how you turned it off but turning it back on is real simple, I've just found.
From finder click a folder, select view/show view options/show item info.
That what you after?

Yeah but the problem is it only shows total hdd size. It doesnt show remaining space anymore..

I did a permissions verify and repair on the system and now its displaying HDD space correctly again.

However, now my bluetooth on my Mac cant find my T610! Doh..
