You could try removing the pref file in the following location: Users/YourUser/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sidebarlists.plist Reboot then try loading sidebar items and test again. Cheers, Coj Gardner Byron <mailmehere at mindspring.com> Can anyone help me with this? I am having icons of apps that I drag to the sidebar disappear after restarts. I drag the apps icon to the sidebar and the icon shows but then is gone after I restart. It doesn't matter if I choose "Add To Sidebar" in the File menu, they still go bye-bye when I restart. So far, folder icons have remained. It just seems to be any application icon that disappears. Welcome any suggestions to fix this.
