[comp.sys.mac] File mixup during Desktop rebuild?

ra_robert@gsbacd.uchicago.edu (04/03/89)

Has anyone else had any problems with files getting mixed up when rebuilding
the desktop?  I think this might have happened to me.  I had two folders at the
same level, one named NuSource and the other NuSource.old.  In each were
identically named files, except one group was older than the other (saw that
coming, didn't you? :->).  Well, I discovered, much to my displeasure, that two
of the files in my new folders were way too old, and didn't contain the
revisions I had put in recently (about 3 weeks worth :-<).  I checked, and they
were the same dates as the same-named files in the folder containing older
material.  It _could_ be that somehow I copied things wrong, or just somehow
screwed up, but I can't imagine when or how.  One thing I did do recently is
rebuild my desktop.

I was wondering whether anyone else had this problem?  For your info: I'm
running system 6.0.2, have Jasmine, Guardian, Moire and TMON INIT's, and have a
Jasmine HD.

Any info -- e-mailed or posted -- much appreciated.
