I am trying to fix the startup items. I add the items under "system prefs / accounts / login items". They disappear from the list after rebooting.

I understand I need to delete the "com.apple.loginitems.plist" in /Users/*me*/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginitems.plist

Fine... done that, been there... AFAIK, when this file is trashed then I should start with a blank sheet, no?

But I don't seem to get blank sheet. I trash the file and the login items are still sitting there. For those ones who have done this.. Is this a normal behavior? Still learning my ways on my year old Mac.

Many Thanks!
