[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 704849, member: 24098"] Sounds like you've moved the System Preferences application from its original location (the Applications folder). The reason the icon on the Dock is now a ? is because it's just a shortcut to the application and that shortcut is no longer valid. What you need to do is figure out where you moved it to. You can do a search for System Preferences in Spotlight. That should point you to the new location - and once you find it, just drag and drop it back into the Applications folder and it should be good as new. If you can't find it, you'll need to extract the program from your system discs by using a program like [URL="http://www.charlessoft.com/"]Pacifist[/URL]. [/QUOTE]
