Hi Ronni & Bob, Many thanks for your replies. I will try Ronni's suggestion first and will report further, hopefully with good news.
To answer Bob's questions, I did run Disk Utility,from the install disk, first with no problems. Then chose Verify Permission and that's when the problem was encountered. Somehow I think, like Ronni, that it was the iTunes upgrade that caused this problem. Apart from this, the computer is working well. And yes Bob, all my data is safely backed up on two other drives .... I'm a back-up freak with lots of CDs and even DVDs! I'm grateful for the replies. Thanks again and have a nice Sunday.
