Re: [Digital BW] Need help from Mac/photoshop expert

2002-11-09 by Jerry Olson

Thank you for the tip, but I don't know how to find this on the mac.  I
tried reinstalling the KTP filters frm the disks, and that worked. Now
my mouse wheel scroll feature won't work though.  I think I'm starting
to get all the symptoms of a corrupt system, so I suppose I'll have to
reinstall the entire system 9.1.  Hope not though, that's a REAL pain.
