[QUOTE="Eadaoin, post: 1096583, member: 168606"] Thank you so much 6string for all your time and effort in helping me :) I'm at work at the moment so only had a brief look through your post but I gather that you mean for me to back up all my files externally, do a clean install, then test that everything looks ok before putting all the files back onto the mac. It sounds complicated for someone like me who doesn't know too much, but I'm sure I can manage it! I have lots of data on my old external HD and I'm not sure I can afford a new one at the moment as money is tight but I'll look into it as it seems it will be essential. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks to you to chas_m for the tip on backing up a thumb drive, I really think I'll need something a lot bigger like another external HD as with all the RAW files I have I'll need lots of room!
