How to arrange all folders by kind?

[powerbuddy]

How do I go about arranging all folders by kind? Whenever I goto view options and select "use as defaults", it only applies to that folder...not to all folders!! I have Snow Leopard

That's how you do it. With only one folder open at the time. So, if that's not working, something is wrong. Perhaps your finder plist file is corrupt.

I deleted the com.apple.finder.plist and it still isn't sticking?!? What should I do next?

Try a different User Account.
