Re: System Preferences corrupted
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. regards robin On 01/04/2010, at 1:10 PM, Kaye and Geoff wrote: Robin We've been here before, you can trawl through the archives or you can try this link from apple. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1730909tstart=120 Thanks Robin, we did not remember any discussion of this topic, but it has not affected us before.

System Preferences corrupted
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 -- Kaye Stott and Geoff Prince Email: k...@kgweb.org.au Web: http://www. kgweb.org.au/ -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml Unsubscribe - mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au
