No, this is when you are adding a new source. You can choose from some 400 templates but you can also put those you use most often in a FAVORITES place .. Then when you add a new source you just look at the 10-20 you use most frequently! I had about 20 in there and that is what is empty!!! NOT the favorites (website stuff) in a browser!!

Pat The only Favorites I have is under C Drive and holds some short cuts to My DropBox and other drives. What you dropped into Favorites night have been put into MyDropbox .

Double check the Favorites on each computer if you haven't. Do you have folders under Favorites? If so then check those.

It sounds as though you opened a version from before you set Favorites. If you restore at the start of each session, then you may have restored a pre-Favorites version over your last working version. Working on a common database from multiple computers is risky if backups are stored in more than one place.
