You're right, of course; I was talking about hard disk space. The only times I've ever had problems with too little space, in previous computers, it was a always always a question of space on the hard drive, not room in the RAM, so that's what automatically came to mind when you mentioned memory. However, this time I've got space to spare in both places. It doesn't seem to be a preferences problem either, so far as I can see. I've tried Scott's suggestion of rebooting with Command-Shift-Option-Control, and that's not working either. Neither did killing a couple of apparently superfluous .plists.

Wow I have never seen a system with 300GB of memory, seriously I think you are confusing RAM with hard-drive space.

I don't know if this is your solution but I had something similar opening Photoshop and trashing the preference file solved the problem.  I think when programs launch they look for the preference file to see what your saved setup is and if it can't find a preference file it writes a new preference file using the default settings.

Can't be that, Doug. I've got nearly 300GB free.
