Yeah, I don't want Yosemite!
Edit: Better idea! Try re-running the
OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo); it's a tried and true troubleshooting technique...particularly when nothing else has worked.
I just saw this post. Sorry, late. I don't want to update. It seems every time I do, I lose a feature I like. I know maybe the security wouldn't be as good, but hey, you use Snowy!!
Actually, you already replied to my post in post #34060, Rita.
But I didn't suggest updating...merely
re-runing the OS X 10.9.
4 Combo, which, as per your sig, you've already run.
