[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 295749"] I'm thinking something, somehow set your Macintosh HD icon as invisible... First, try reapplying the latest Combo update. You'll find that at Apple's website/Support/Downloads. If that doesn't work, try [URL="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238"][B]Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM[/B][/URL]. If that doesn't work, take a look at this thread at [URL="http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=294158&tstart=0"][B]Apple Discussions[/B][/URL]. You could download and install something like OnyX to change the visibility of the hard drive icon but the problem with that solution is that you would see plenty of other files everywhere, all the time, so not such a hot idea. You need to specifically address this problem only with your HD icon, not all the files. [/QUOTE]
