Sidebar favourites in dispute

Q The two versions of Finder’s sidebar, listing favourites, devices, and so on, have somehow become different on my Mac running oS X El Capitan 10.11.5. Viewed in Finder, that sidebar looks correct, with a single Desktop item. However, viewed in an app’s Save dialog, the Desktop item is shown twice under Favourites. Why is this, and how can I fix it? by JANET GOLDNER
