Ok Tim. I went back and checked and under general and show these items on my desktop, connected servers is indeed checked. Maybe I will reboot.

This is the default behaviour when Apple sets things up but I prefer to see them on my Desktop so I don't have to use the sidebar all the time. To set this up: 1. go to your Desktop. 2. Press cmd-comma to bring up Finder Preferences. 3. It should be in the General pane if you've never changed that before. 4. Navigate through the choices and set things up the way you like. I usually check the box to show Connected Servers and, I'm old school so I tell it to open folders in a new window as well. These are all your own choice but I do find it much easier to get to my servers and such when they are showing up on the Desktop. HTH. Later...
