[QUOTE="mac57, post: 292920, member: 17052"] Both behaviors are quite contrary to normal OS X behavior. Is your system up to date? Check for software updates and make sure that you have all the latest and greatest. Somehow, Mac OS X is failing to auto update your desktop as things change, and your trash can as well. Most unusual, and it suggests a software issue - perhaps the Mac had been partially updated but not fully, or some such, just before "Santa" wrapped it up for you? I would recommend getting into a known, up to date state, and then trying again. If all else fails, create a new userid for yourself and try that. Something may be messed up in the default user id. BTW, since you are a new Mac user, I should point out that this kind of thing is MOST unusual for a Mac. One of the great things about them is that by and large, they just work. You don't have to mess with this sort of thing, like you do with Windows. Hopefully, this is the only issue of this sort you experience! [/QUOTE]
