(Your original post really did sound like what you describe--all > the right parts of info seemed there, but put together a bit > ashew.;-) ) When I type on the ibook, something weird happens at times. Without knowing how and not always being able to catch it in time, a section of message will get highlighted and when I hit the return key for a new paragraph, the section gets deleted. It seems to happen most or only associated with the return key. It is not the ibook, it is something my fingers are doing inadvertently and I can't quite catch the sequence. It creates some unusual messages. I try to remember to proof first just in case but last night forgot to do that 8?)
