I very much appreciate this discussion. In following this list, I had often heard the suggestion to solve a problem by "trashing the preferences" and they will "rebuild themselves" and that often it is a "corrupted" preference file is the cause of the problem.
My question is one from wanting to learm how to troubleshoot and solve problems that I may encounter. Along that line, I also read references to a "corrupted "Application and to reinstall them when all else fails. So I just have to ask...do "extensions" get "corrupted" and need to be replaced by a new copy after a period of time of heavy use? Do "plug-ins" get "corrupted" after months of use and need to be replaced by new copies? Again I appreciate the discussion, Gail -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
