Thank you and I wondered about it being an OS problem and not a Poser problem although I did have an Apple tech on the line for over two hours and he did a screen share and we searched everywhere we could possibly think of. Now I followed your direction and opened Poser and did the search for the Poser prefs and it did give me a path and so I have to assume that a file exists somewhere in part because under the File there is a Preferences and I have been through them and so there has to be some kind of document that runs the script. Now yes, I can do a couple of screen shots and I will and if you could look at them that would be great as there has to be a solution here . . . I followed the path indicated in the script prefs location search and nothing, there was nothing there . . . so where, can you tell me, do the OS prefs reside, they have to be somewhere, I wonder if the Poser prefs could be hiding there . . .
