[QUOTE="Richard92024, post: 1608327, member: 334107"] [b]Thanks...[/b] Many thanks for the reply and suggestion. I tried the Reset, but there's no difference. In fact, a slight difference... before I did the Reset, when I started up the Mac, at first there was a white/gray screen... then after a few seconds it turned to the light purple, then the desktop came up. After the Reset, on start up, it opened directly with the purple screen. Before taking it back to the Apple Store (although I bought it from Best Buy, so I'll have to check where to return it)... one other question: is there such a thing as a System Restore, like on PC's... where you can get the computer to just go back to the settings from a previous time? Or maybe that's what we just tried with the Restore... Many thanks, Richard [/QUOTE]
