Re: confused icons
No. Wish I could include a picture here. Had only 2 programs open. Finder and History Hound. Both showed the red icon. I¡¯m silly, but not that¡­. shalom, ncoom ncoom@...

Re: confused icons
Excuse the humor, but maybe you weren¡¯t where you thought you were. I haven¡¯t noticed the wrong icon, wasn¡¯t looking, but have quit the wrong app before, thinking another was in front. Brent

Re: confused icons
I opened a Force Quit window and I saw that LibreOffice and Firefox show the same icon. So it¡¯s not just you. Quitting each of the programs and restarting them fixed it, no need to restart. Jerry

Re: confused icons
The Dock is fine, everything else is fine. Showed up in the Force Quit window. Just odd. Restart has cured it, but still got me wondering. shalom, ncoom ncoom@... <mailto:ncoom@...>

Re: confused icons
Don't know, But try using the right-click and "Info" menu. Then select the good icon, copy it to the clipboard. Then to the bad icon, select it, and paste it in, if this is even possible. Or, if

confused icons
What would cause a program to hijack the icon of another program? For example, in a Force Quit window, Finder is showing the icon of another program currently open (HistoryHound)??? shalom, ncoom

Re: Apple Computer
I appreciate the defense of us seniors. First off, let me explain that I¡¯m not simply talking about seniors. I¡¯m talking about middle-aged and up folks. Just as an example, I¡¯m on a half dozen

Re: Apple Computer
As an old person who continues to assist younger people, I've seen that so many younger people foist the resistant image on older people that the older ones think it must be right. I've seen two women

Re: Apple Computer
That is the common perception, but one that I believe is not totally correct. The old have seen more ways to do things than the young. They have seen more change than the young. The have more muscle

Re: Apple Computer
Thanks for some sane observations, Randy. It¡¯s all in how open a person is to learning new things, I think. I got my first Apple Computer in 1985, my first Mac a coupla years later. Today I¡¯m 71,

Re: Apple Computer
The difference is that the old tend to get scared easily and give up. The young keep on banging at it until they become masters of it. That¡¯s why you can usually ask your twelve year old child to
