[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1871281, member: 396914"] OK, David, I'm a little confused, but we can pick this up later, when you want to tackle it. Your Desktop is, in fact, just another folder, as you have discovered. When you put something in the Desktop folder, the system puts it on the screen for your Desktop. I think that explains what you described. If you try to copy Desktop to the Desktop, it's a circular reference, which is why it doesn't work. But for now, enjoy your holiday and we can take the issue up later. [/QUOTE]
