In System 10.6.8 folder icons displayed the number of items in the folder under the folder name. Is there a way to bring this feature back in Mountain Lion?
I’m familiar with the File>Get Info command. But, I’d really like the folder icon to display the number of items. The solution may require using Terminal which I’m barely familiar with.
Thank you.

It actually works the same way it did in Snow Leopard. But you probably forgot how you turned it on back then.
To turn this on, you just go to View, Show View Options. Then check "Show Item Info."
Of course the Finder window needs to be in Icon view for this option to be available.
It works! Score one for MacMost. I took this question to an Apple One To One class and couldn't get it answered.
