I froze up again today, but I didn't loose anything today either after rebooting. I was wondering if a Mac had similar problems. I was perfectly willing to chalk it up to the operating system (XP). I'm kind of afraid of mounting my external disk from my desktop on my laptop, even though I need to. I have too much on it to take any chances. I'll just have to sit in front of the desktop and work, I guess. Thanks Allen. Daniel On Dec 25, 2007 5:24 PM, Allen Graves <allen.graves@charter.net> wrote: > I use Lightroom on a Mac.
