The most common mistake people make it to place their public folder on the desktop & expect it to work like before. Under system 7 anything thats placed on the desktop is actually moved into a folder called the "Desktop Folder". Solutions: 1) Select public folder in the chooser and click on the customize button. A dialog box will come up, insert :Desktop Folder at the beginning of the path name. 2) Move your folder called public from the desktop & place it in the Hard Disk's window like other folders. After that, reboot & everything should work fine. Lance Kimes USC
