Are you using automatic synching of your .Mac account iDisk or

the connection is slow for some reason it can get confused.
I'm using the auto sync. Maybe thats upsetting it.
Most likely. Set it to sync Manually (on demand only) and the problem
will likely go away. At least that's been successful with my primary
contract client so far.
Any reason i cannot access Mac help. I just get a blank box and the
spinning wheel.??I can access help in PS etc.I'm using an always on
dsl connection and Airport Express.
I've seen this occasionally too, wrote Apple a bug report about Help
Viewer operation.
It works correctly most of the time for me, but perhaps whatever is
the underlying cause for the MirrorAgent failure is also hitting the
Help browser. Sometimes, I notice that the Help Browser window comes
up blank but if I click the "home" icon in the top bar, it then does
the right thing. I also notice that it is more reliable when I unset
the option in the Help Viewer menu to "Perform Product Support
Searches" and pick the product I want help on directly from the
Library menu.
