[QUOTE="ron4mac, post: 1609736, member: 63497"] When you just click TextEdit to open it, what file is it that opens, as you said, after entering the password for the sparse image? Make sure TextEdit is not running and, while logged into the troublesome account, from the Finder menu choose Go > Go to Folder. In the dialog, enter "~/Library/Preferences" (no quotes and make sure the ~/ is at the beginning of what you enter). Click Go and you will be take to a list of preference files for that account. Choose whatever is necessary in the Finder window for you to see the list of files in alphabetical order. Find the ones that begin with "com.apple.TextEdit" and move them to the trash. Run TextEdit to see if the behavior has changed. [/QUOTE]
