Deafault folder setting

Unfortunately, Finder is notorious for not remembering view settings across folders. It's one of the several weaknesses of Finder.
Yes there is. Open a Finder window then hit command-j to see view preferences. Configure the columns and sort prefs like you want then click the button at the bottom to make that the default for all folders.
I don't see that button anymore ever since the 2nd or 3rd update to ML.
Are you sure it's still there?
Been trying to find a way to sort by type then name automatically. It stills defaults to last modified date every once in a while. Rather irritating.
As I mentioned earlier, even if you set the defaults, Finder will forget them from time to time.
