I have just erased my disk and reinstalled with El Capitan, because everything ceased working. As a complete computer numptie I have now raised a number if issues for which I can find no answer.
The first is :-
On my old installation I could access the hard drive through the icon on my desktop. Now I can't find it anywhere! Can anyone tell me where to look please?
Ome of the many issues - I'll post them thread by thread!
Sorry.

In the Finder Preferences>General, make sure Hard disks is checked.
It should always be available in Computer from the Go Menu in Finder (cmd-shift-C).
As mentioned, you can toggle where it can be seen from the Finder Preferences.
You can also drag it from Computer to the Sidebar or Dock to have it available in those places. Make sure you are dropping it into an open space in those locations and not on top of another folder.
Thanks both.
That's the problem when you always have your computer set up for you - you never get to learn about anything beyond what you see on the screen.

Welcome.
Where has my hard drive gone?
