Hi,

I'm running OSX 10.3.9 and am having all kinds of funky things happening to my files (files ending up on the desktop for unknown reasons, applications suddenly not opening). I have recently downloaded a number of image-editing/photo application files/applications after buying a new digital camera, and therein may be the root of the problem.

At any rate, I wanted to start with the basics: running Disk Utility to verify/repair permissions, but I keep getting the following message after the progress bar has progressed about 1/3 of the way:

"Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility."

When I quit and try again, I get exactly the same message.

I tried verifying/repairing permissions with OnyX 1.5.0 and it ran all night without completing the mission.

I would appreciate any suggestions for dealing with this stuff.

Thanks in advance,

Dale
