Sorry, I was using the royal we, as in the list discussion. If it wasn't this 
list it was another one.
Glad to hear it fixed your problem.

 Thanks Robin, we did not remember any discussion of this topic, but it has 
 not affected us before. Anyway, your advice was spot on and we have now 
 sorted it out.
 
 Thank you

System Preferences corrupted

2010-03-30 Thread Kaye and Geoff

Hi

I normally connect to the internet through an ethernet connection to 
my partner's machine, but I've just been testing a wireless broadband 
connection, which seems to have left my System Preferences corrupted.


Now, every time I open System Preferences and select Network I get 
a pop-up box that tells me Your network settings have been changed 
by another application. When I press OK the box just pops up again 
immediately. If I am very quick I can get System Preferences to 
respond to me, but the pop-up box keeps re-appearing.


I've tried trashing com.apple.systempreferences.plist from the 
preferences with no change. I do have backups but I'm not sure what 
needs replacing. Any help will be appreciated.


emac 800MHz
OS 10.4.11
System Preferences 3.3

Cheers, Kaye
