Don't feel bad. I'm a dyed in the wool Mac user and it took me about two weeks to really get used to OS X. Now I can't stand to see OS 9... ;0)

I tried install 10.0.4 on and G4 400 and an iMac when it first came out and the install crashed on both machines! Then 10.1 came out and it was a dream, albeit a little slow. Jaguar came out and it rocks! and it's fast! Panther will do one better!

I'm not exactly sure which files are the culprits, but if you are not
careful you can delete necessary files for OS X while running the
computer in OS 9 (OS 9 does not have permission issues like OS X and
will let you delete ANY file that belongs to OS X). It sounds like you

deleted some files that contained settings for your account in OS X.
Just a hunch...

yes it is just a hunch, since I had not run OS 9.2 from the moment I
installed OS X, and I certainly don't delete anything unless I know what it is.


well turned out that I somehow got confused so I set the computer to start up
with my sister's username which had never been used yet, duh for me, but I
guess I am still learning :)


thanks for your concern thou  ;)
