[QUOTE="trpnmonkey41, post: 17927, member: 279"] This is something I do about every 2 months or when things just start going screwy. Reboot the computer Hold apple key + S to boot into single user mode it will load with a terminal like looking screen type this in /sbin/fsck -y Hit enter. Its a more powerful sort of disk permission thing but it fixes more things (i havent done it in a while so i forget exactly the things it fixes) When its done it will say whether its all OK or fixed something. if it fixed something run the code again to make sure its all clean type reboot and hit enter when done [/QUOTE]
