After every software update, and about every 2 weeks: close all apps and log totally off. Log on, go in Finder, Applications. Utilities, Disk Utility. After the message -getting disk information- select volume (below the hard drive name -upper left corner). Just highlight it. Now look to the lower two things are there near the middle, verify permissions, repair permissions. Click repair permissions. IF that doesn't help, then delete the preference files, Finder > Library > Preferences find apple.helpui.plist apple.hlpviewer.plis And if there is a third control click and send to trash. close everything and reopen finder and open Mac help and those preferences should regenerate and help should work again and you can secure empty trash</blockquote>
