[QUOTE="mathogre, post: 328469, member: 25890"] Hi! I'm at work and away from my Mac, so I'll try this from memory. Open Finder. Press Command-G. You'll be presented with a window asking you what directory you want to open. Enter a slash: / It should bring you to the topmost directory of your system. In there you should see what you thought you lost. Post what you see back here. [B]DON'T TRY TO MOVE ANYTHING YET.[/B] My guess is you have lost nothing. It's just sitting in the top directory (also known as the root directory). Good luck. [/QUOTE]
