[QUOTE="Mikeo1938, post: 1568478, member: 135375"] [b]HD icon[/b] OK and thanks. Well, I've restarted and the rogue icon is still there. The name of the drive on the desktop icon is "Mackintosh HD", followed by a number of GB and then a number of GB free. Exactly the same GB figures appear when I select the HD via Finder in "John Smith's Computer". There are two dates, identical on the desktop and via Finder: one is "created" and the other is "modified". The date for "created" looks like when I got the MPB in 2009; not sure about the "modified" date, which is in January 2013. M [/QUOTE]
