[QUOTE="wandro, post: 1306293, member: 123944"] OSX 10.7.1: There appear three question marks in my dock, apparently belonging to apps that I have removed a long time ago. I can remove these dock items using the context menu ("remove from dock"). But if I then log out and in again, they are present as before at their old places in the dock. Possibly related: If I specify "Don't ask before emptying waste box" in the finder settings then this setting is forgotten, too, on log out/in. Perhaps a matter of erroneous permissions?? But repairing permissions using the hard disk utility didn't help. Are there .plist files for finder and dock that I could inspect? On Mac OS Lion I couldn't find them. May be their names have been changed (if they still exist at all). [/QUOTE]
