[QUOTE="Mac Convert, post: 721248, member: 63272"] Okay, much earlier I posted that I had a problem with System Preferences, it wouldn't open, and had a question mark on it. I was suggested to use Pacifist ([URL="http://www.charlessoft.com/"]http://www.charlessoft.com/[/URL]) to extract System Preferences from the OS X disks and reinstall it on my computer. I'm having problems doing that. Pay attention. 1. I open Pacifist. 2. I insert OS X install disk 1 3. I click "Open Aplle install disks" 4. The status bar opens, midway through I have to insert disk 2. 5. I don't remember, but I think I reinsert disk 1 after that. Anyway, I get to the end, and I browse the disks and find System Preferences, and extract it. Picture here: [URL="http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture1.png"]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture1.png[/URL] 6. It's extracted, and in applications. Picture here: [URL="http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture2.png"]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture2.png[/URL] 7. When I open it, this is what I get: [URL="http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture3.png"]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture3.png[/URL] Obviously, this isn't what's supposed to happen. Please help; I need an answer. I can't do anything without System Preferences. [/QUOTE]
