Yes, the first thing I did was unlock the lock but I'm not sure I tried the mouse click. Thanks much. I'm probably wasting my time anyway doing this. I have one G4 Mac mini running Leopard which can't go higher and one Intel Mac mini running Leopard which actually has been on Snow Leopard and maybe Lion (can't remember). They both pretty much work and I hate quitting on equipment if it still works. But sometimes any use one can get may not be worth the time invested.

And now, every day: "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
