I didn't find this until I went to Jaguar, so it may not exist in
previous versions.� At the bottom of the window (column view), you
should see a horizontal scroll bar.� Move it to the left, and you'll
find your volumes.

If that doesn't work for you, try typing "/Volumes" (without the
quotes) in the text box at the bottom and hitting Enter.� That should
take you there.

This is a byproduct of BSD, and the way that it handles filesystem
hierarchy.� The desktop is not the root of the machine, like in
Windows, but actually a folder several levels in.� Your Volumes can't
actually be on your desktop, because your desktop is on your Volume.� I
hope that makes some sense.

Hey!   It worked!   But it seems it's pointing to an invisible folder (when I 
click on it, it wont let you touch it maybe).   But it does make sense.  And 
I did try the first thing you said too I didn't understand before, duh to me!

Thanks so much this definitely helps!
