macosservices
I have services set up, particularly the one for opening Terminal from a folder. However, it doesn't appear in the context menu and in Finder > Services, there is nothing except "No services apply"
I'm using El Capitan 10.11.6
Anyone else have this problem?
I've just installed and then uninstalled iconStiX again - just to see where the stuff was placed.
The uninstall is like this (see Readme.pdf in iconStiX.dmg):
Throw away the following 4 items into the Trash:
the iconStiX program in your Applications folder (or any other place of your choice)
in your ~/Library/Preferences:
li.loos.trollin.iconStiX.plist
li.loos.trollin.iconStiX.LSSharedFileList.plist (if any)
a folder named iconStiX in your ~/Library/Application Support folder
Empty the Trash.
BUT this doesn't remove the Contextual Menu Items - unless you reboot your Mac (I did that, and the items was gone).
You may want to try Services Manager.app:
Download the application and put it into your /Applications folder (or any other convenient place). After you started it you can configure each service to appear in the Services menu (by enabling it in the Active column), in the Context Menu (by enabling it in the Context Menu) or in both.
Best Answer
You have to click on a file or folder to select it and then the Services menu will work. You can get to the Services from either the Finder menu bar or by Control-clicking (right-clicking) on an item.
