What is the Path of the cdesc-ITunesOwner.yaml Item in Login Items? It should give you a clue as to what it pertains to. In Login Items - Hold your cursor over the "cdesc-ITunesOwner.yaml" for a few seconds and you will see the Path. For example: Item - DDAssist - the Path is /Applications/Drobo Dashboard.app/Containers/DDAssist.app Cheers, Ronni 13-inch MacBook Air (April 2014) 1.7GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost to 3.3GHz 8GB 1600MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM 512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 > > Peter Hinchliffe Apwin Computer Services > FileMaker Pro Solutions Developer > Perth, Western Australia > Phone (618) 9332 6482 Mob 0403 046 948 > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > Mac because I prefer it -- Windows because I have to. >
