Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I Accidentally deleted my system preferences and I would LOVE to have it back (I Do not have a startup disk)
System preferences -OTHER, Mac OS X (10.4.11)
Did you empty the Trash after deleting it?
Do you have another Mac with Firewire?

If you have another Mac with Firewire & a FW cable, boot this Mac into Target mode...

Ask for more directions if you can accomplish this.
thank you! But I found out how to fix it! I plugged a thumb drive into another computer using the same version of OSX and I downloaded it off the thumb drive back onto my computer!
Good work, thanks for the report. 🙂
