Re: Need help from Mac/photoshop expert

Hi Jerry,

It sure sounds like you have somehow booted up from one
of the other disk drives.  That would give you a different
System Folder and Preferences Folder.  It might also give you
a different Photoshop if an old one is loaded on that other
disk.

BTW, even if the Startup Disk is set correctly if there's an error
of some sort on the startup disk and can't boot from it, the
boot software will try other disks for a System Folder.
