[QUOTE="toMACsh, post: 1575446, member: 112842"] Well, I did miss the fact that you stated your OS version. However, the generalizations to which I refer are still presenting a roadblock to offering help: "...[B]randomly re-arranging my settings and other pranksterish mischief[/B] ... ( I recently downloaded and installed Mavericks OSX 10.9.2 and have since been victimized with lost files, [B]random acts of mystery[/B], and [B]other pesky problems..."[/B] Like, what settings are being rearranged? What other mysterious mischief are you seeing? As the other person offering help asked, which problem is the most pesky? Describe it and maybe we'll have a solution. Really, "lost files" is a generalization as well. It would help to know what application(s) created the lost files, if you can determine that. If it's too much trouble to be specific, then hopefully the measures you've taken will provide a permanent fix. Like many on this forum, I'm trying to help. There are many new users who post here and get help, all of whom are welcome. That's what the site exists for. But as many details as you can provide about the problem are certainly going to help us to help you, if you want help. We might have to ask you for more details if we cannot figure out the problem(s) well enough to offer possible solutions. [/QUOTE]
