[QUOTE="Mr Tode, post: 396224, member: 31334"] Hi all-- Tried searching this, but it's kind of hard to describe my issue for searching purposes.... My brand new machine--24" iMac, 2.16ghz core duo, OSX 10.4.9--has this problem where certain files don't appear when they are created. A couple examples: When downloading a file from the internet, a picture, email attachment, whatever, the file won't appear on the desktop (where my saved internet files should be directed). If I perform a search from the finder for the file, it will appear on the finder window and on the desktop. Similarly, when I save certain files (I can't say ALL files, since I only have a few days' experience with this machine), they don't appear where I have saved them to. Again, a search sets everything straight. What gives? Any help is appreciated. EDIT: A reboot seems to have solved the problem for now...was it as simple as that?? [/QUOTE]
