Your help >and advice would be greatly appreciated. > I had a similar problem, tho not exactly the same--my scrapbook would launch, and it would appear in my list of apps (I run system 7), but no scrapbook window would appear. I suspect the problem occurred because I had a system crash while my scrapbook was open. My solution was simple--I replaced my copy of the scrapbook DA. If you're in system 7, this is as simple as dragging the scrapbook DA from the system 7 installation disk to the apple menu folder (inside your system folder). In system 6, go to the Font/DA mover (launch it), remove the current scrapbook, then stick in a new copy (also via F/D mvr) from your system 6 installation disks. If this doesn't solve the problem... well, without knowing more about your set-up, I can't really offer any more advice. Yes, I replaced the old with the one in the installation disk. I didn't work neither. As a matter of fact, I also tried to open the scrapbook from within the installation disk. Nothing worked. Would this has anything to do with the scrapbook file in the system folder? The file contains all the stored images or whatever in the scrapbook, right? I just hate to replace that too, because it holds some PICT I don't want to get rid of.
