[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1094832, member: 24098"] Put your wallpaper in the Pictures folder. Then open System Preferences => Desktop & Screen Saver. Find your Pictures folder in the left window pane and select it. You should see your wallpaper there. Then just click to select it and it should remain set. As far as your cut and paste program, although I would recommend you take your Windows hat off and put your Mac hat on (i.e. use spring-loaded folders for awhile rather than perpetuate your habit of cutting and pasting files), it doesn't sound like it's installed in your Applications folder. Most Mac applications come in a "DMG" file. This is a disk image. Basically double-clicking it mounts it as a virtual disk. The next step is usually to drag and drop the program into your Applications folder. Then run the program from the Applications folder and eject the virtual disk by dragging and dropping it onto the Trash. [/QUOTE]
