Oh, I forgot to ask: do you see the Name column but your comp doesn't show the names anymore, or you can't see the Namo column altogether.
In the first case, trashing Preferences might work, while in the second, it almost surely will work, but it's better (and far less of a hassle) to just Right-click on a column and tick the Name box if it is unticked (if it's ticked, untick then retick again)
