i've always been very skeptical of respondies that ask for more
details or complain that there is not enough technical information
included in the posters inquiry...
It seems to me; Either the problem is going to sound familiar, or not.
If it does sound familiar, then there should be a readily available
solution,
Which may be prefaced with a qualifier;
If it is such & such, then quackity quack.
Or is it does sound familiar, and you never fixed it...
"Yeah...! That happened to me too...!"
Or if it doesn't sound familiar;
Then you ignore the posting and move on to the next one.
The only case where asking for more details would seem reasonable;
Is if your brain suddenly explodes with dozens of different scenarios
of what it might be,
And it would take too long to add each qualifier to each suggestion...
( Which some respondents do from time to time...! ( !!! ) )
But even so; There should be one or two; Most Probable Problems...
In which case a few follow up postings after the initial solution
would be appropriate...
Annnnnnnnnny ways...
It's a Macbook, X.iv.xi, iPhoto 7.1
And the folder creation was within iPhoto...
It created the folder, which i then attempted to move to it's new
location from the bottom,
And during the trip, my thumb slipped off the pad-button, and instead
of just landing where i didn't want it,
The entire list visibly 'Flipped' and upon examination, noticed that
they were all scrambled...!!!
???
Thanx!
