For whatever reason, this sidebar sometimes changes back to default. I
therefore have saved a copy of the "com.apple.sidebarlists.plist", which
I can "retransfer" to the preferences folder via a small applescript.
The script also quits and restarts then the Finder.
That mostly works, but not always: from time to time, the Finder seems
to refuse to read all items of the relevant plist file, showing only a
few part of them....
i'd say you're on your own with this; the sidebar plist is used other
places besides Finder (e.g. open/save dialogs), so it may be that what
you are doing conflicts with another app
i think the best route would be to solve the original problem; i use
10.5.8 and i modify my sidebar fairly often; i've never seen it revert
the way you describe; if i had to debug that problem i would look for
triggers that make the sidebar "change back to default" -- is this
associated with certain events such as crashes of Finder or the system,
running a certain app, log entries?
