Thanks, here's another question

It really seems that there is no need to update Sandbox from Mac HD, unless I for some reason decide to operate for a while from Mac HD as startup, in which case I just copy all files from Mac HD to Sandbox using Smart Update. Looking the other way, the only reason to copy back from Sandbox to Mac HD is if for some reason I didn't save an application (drag & drop type) or installer in the Desktop folder for later installation on Mac HD. Have I got this right? I'd be very reluctant to copy back except in an emergency, and then only with at least one up-to-date backup on the external HD. I actually did that once after everything was working well for a few days, with 2 backups ready just in case. It worked perfectly, no funny stuff ensued. But it was just an experiment with lots of backup available. Thanks again for your response. Dale Meyn
