$1. INTRODUCTION IN A SERIES of papers [1, 6, 14, 15], Barratt et al. used the Adams spectral sequence to determine the 2 component of rnSo for 29 I n 5 45 together with a number of products and Toda brackets in this range. In this paper we show that there is an additional nonzero differential and determine its implications for products and Toda brackets. The new differential follows from a general formula due to Makinen [7] relating differentials and Steenrod operations in the Adams spectral sequence of a sphere. It is interesting to note that Milgram [l 1] found a similar mistake in [6](corrected in [1]) by means of a more limited formula of the same type. We give Makinen’s general formula in $2. We then collect some known calculations in the Adams spectral sequence for sc. SO in $3. Our new results are presented in $4, while $5 contains new proofs of results whose published proofs rely on the mistake we are correcting.
