Hi John, Try this in Terminal, the stuff in brackets is just for your info, it doesn't need typed:
cd / (should put you to the root level) ls (Will list your files at that level. Just to ensure ther isn't a double of the offending file) chflags hidden /filename (where "filename" is the exact filename of the offending file) You should be able to Quit Terminal and the file should now be hidden. HTH. Later... On 2012-03-25, at 11:27 AM, John Panarese wrote: > This doesn't relate to VoiceOver, so my apologies to the list.
