in 10.3.8 ( recently updated from 10.2.8),  but as a clean install
my wifes' user account seems to be having difficulties with a large number of things
1. safari will not allow bookmarks
2. some apps will not open
3. dock will not keep changes
4. library>preferences has red negative symbol on it, with permission set to Admin, which I reset to her user name, red symbol has remained
5. constantly say no keychain - reset to default!

other users
myself, admin ( root user) and daughter all work okay

OK !   Do you have full backup of your wife's user account ?

Then create a new user and use Superduper to copy back fro the Backup
all the files to that new user account .   What works now ?



I have run disk utility once, while in wifes account, it changed a few things ( that thats what it said) but seems to have no effect on the above

Disk Utility has Disk Repair and Permissions Repair ! Did you do both ?

After all that , do you have Disk Warrior ? Run that and it can show stuff that the other does not show up or fix, I have been there and done that .

Bob





any suggestion on what is going on, and how to remedy the issue
