Increase the Size of Your Mac's Icons

If you bought a large-screen Mac (with a 24-inch or larger screen), you might find the folder and document icons to be a bit too small. You can make them bigger. Much bigger! Click on any folder. To make the icons in that folder larger, press Command-J to open the view options for that folder. Drag the slider for Icon Size to the right. The icons will get bigger in real time as you drag. While you're at it, you probably want to increase the point size of the document and folder names. If so, just change the setting on the Text Size pop-up menu.

"Your manual backups saved our Job Printing History File. Yesterday we had a power bump and our Filemaker Server went down. The Job Printing History database was damaged and had just 8 files in it when it came back up. I went to your manual backups to recover the file and it was there safe and sound."
