    Sounds like the system is screwed up. Few things to try: Insert the system CD and restart holding Option key instead of C key. See what choices you have for startup..hard drive and CD.

    multiplication of .jpg's

    Sorry to take so long to reply, been away. Partitions are divided parts of a drive and volume can refer to either partitions or if a drive is not partitioned, the whole drive itself. I apologize if I confused you. From your description it sounds like you might have mounted the archive folder...

    Sos!

    Please don't use Norton on any disk that has OSX on it. Disaster awaits and may have doomed your install. Try unplugging from AC, then remove the battery from the computer, wait at least 20 minutes before putting back. Give it time on start to find the OS. Or put in the system CD if you don't...

    problem with apps disappearing...

    I wouldn't use a "development preview" to update my applications. They also note that is has been tested with Tiger but "should" work with Leopard. You could try to track it down by seeing if there were any updates to the missing apps. Then again it could have done damage just by checking...

    restoring previous system apps

    Since you only want to move the Mail and not the entire user account you can basically go to the Library/Mail and Mail Downloads and drag them to the new install. Also go into the pref folder and get com.apple.mail.plist so you don't have to reenter all your info.

    multiplication of .jpg's

    You said the folders are on the desktop but are they from the same volume/partition? Does this happen with any other files or just the scanned images in that folder? Are these images a specific Canon format or jpg? It's possible your finder.plist is corrupted. You could move it to the desktop...

    Card Reader not reading SD HC Card

    Go to the SCI Microsystems website and look for drivers. But I doubt you will find any that are for a 7 year old unit. That type of SC card is probably too new. I'd post the URL but it keeps getting this post rejected.

    Card Reader not reading SD HC Card

    It's possible that the Dazzle is not able to recognize the newer type cards. Many cameras won't accept SD cards over 4G so I presume the same may be true of a reader that is 7 years old. See if the number on your unit matches any of those at this download page for SCM Micro the maker of the...

    multiplication of .jpg's

    Holding down the Command key while dragging will move rather than copy the file. Holding Option key makes a copy regardless of where you are dragging.
