You can select Label in View Options, but you cannot sort by Label or label items in the Mac OS X Finder.

Products Affected

Mac OS X 10.0

Symptom
    1. Mac OS X offers Label in View Options but does not have a feature for applying labels to items.

    2. If you select Label in View Options and try to sort by Label, the Mac OS X Finder does not recognize labels applied by Mac OS 9.x or earlier.


Solution

At this time, Mac OS X does not include a feature for applying labels.

If you try to sort by Label, the computer will actually sort by Name.
