[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1488903, member: 83420"] Hi Launch Finder, Click on Apps, Scroll down to Utilities, Click on it and Disk Utilities is in there. When launched, Disk Utilities brings up all mounted Disks on the left. Your Internal Hard Drive will be shown there probably as "Macintosh HD". Click on this and towards the right and lower down will be "Repair Disk Permissions". Click on this and be patient because if could take some time if you've not done this before. As regards "cleaning apps", many in the Forum use and recommend the free OnyX. Google it to find the download site. If you choose to download it, make certain that you download the version appropriate to your OS. Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion & Mountain Lion need their own version of OnyX. OnyX checks your IHD and you can run automated clean-up operations. Hope all this helps. Ian [/QUOTE]
