OK, worked that out.
The thingie had been changed from an Apple space to ^ space.
I'll try the repair now.

Yep, you should try it. You can type in anything... and it will generally pull up a link to it. Email, applications, docments, internet history...and so on. On my version it even pulls up dictionary and thesaurus entries.Quote:

The trouble is I don't know ANYTHING about Macs so I have no idea what I'm pressing or why.
If you were in Brisbane I could spend hour with you and you'd be away.Quote:

It's great... spend a couple of hours with them and they go away and never bother me for support again! Contrast this to the days a year I had to spend re-building family windows computers.
Ron, Google is your friend as are the Mac support sites. I'm new to Mac too. Bought one in May and I hadn't used a Mac since 1985. They've changed a little since then;) Anyway I'm also rusty on unix but so far I've found everything OK.
Now if it was a real OS like VMS...
