Let say I have a folder with several subfolders
How can I quickly select the folder NATUR. In OS X I can just hit n on my keyboard and it jumps to NATUR. What is the equivalent in Ubuntu?
If you are using Ubuntu 13.04 or Ubuntu 13.10, you won't be able to jump directly to the file when you type the first few characters of its name, instead it will search recursively to find files/folders similar to what you type.
This search feature came up in nautilus 3.8 and you would have an option of choosing between the recursive search and the earlier "type-ahead" search only in Ubuntu 14.04. [1]
Untill then if you want to enable the "type-ahead" feature, you may want to look at this answer:
