The finder on my imac is blinking/not functioning and the desktop icons are not visible, The desktop picture remains, and a few applications are in the dock but otherwise nothing is working. I know that the desktop folders are somewhere out there, because I can open documents that are saved in the folders through their applications. But I can't see the folders or HD to acess any of the applications except for the few that are on the dock
I logged out and created a new user account -- when I logged into the new one, everything works fine. So I know that the original account that has the problem.
I ran a permissions repair under the new account -- but when I logged back into the original user account there was no change (I was expecting that I suppose.)
anyone have any further suggestions? There were several desktop folders that have info that I don't want to lose!
