Do you have that folder set to sort by something useful like “date added”? Then it should work. If you have it set to not sorted then maybe the file is lower on the list and off screen.
~\Downloads is always the first tab in Finder for me and I almost always keep it to show the most recently added files at the top.
- bombcar 5y agoI always do date added, and it sometimes doesn't show new files in the file picker view most commonly - and then I have to go somewhere else and back and it seems to refresh. The other weirdness is sometimes a file gets updated (think "touch") and it won't change it's order in the list. Most of the time it works fine. It's like inotify or whatever sometimes doesn't fire.
- Tagbert 5y agoAh, I almost never use the file picker. I tend to keep certain folders open in tabs in Finder and drag from them to the apps or to the file open dialogs. I tend to do a lot of work in a handful of folders and never liked the process of of “File Open….now navigate to that folder you were just using”.
