Mac Question: Is it Possible to Merge Folders Instead of Replace / Keep Both?

August 20, 2012 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

Here’s the one gripe I have about the Mac that I really wish they would address soon. In Windows, if you have two folders or directories that are the same filename, Windows will ask you if you want to Merge the data in the directories together. In the Mac environment it asks you if you want to “Replace” or “Keep Both” (only if you copy / paste function). I would like to be able to merge the contents together.

Apparently I’m not the lone ranger in this, here are several posts from people wanting to do the same thing.

My question to my Mac friends out there: Is this possible and I’m just missing something?
