[QUOTE="Noels, post: 639253, member: 49942"] Josh, Welcome to the froum. I do one other step. I created a "Setup" folder inside of my applications folder and after I move the new downloaded app from the .dmg folder to the applications folder, I move the .dmg folder itself to my Setup folder instead of ejecting it. That way, I can keep that apps' .dmg in case I inadvertently delete the app. Then I can move the .dmg folder back to the desktop and re-install the app. I think that may be easier than re-downloading the .dmg from the internet. May be wasteful of your HDD, but I'm new to Mac and may give this practice up later on if I feel there's no need for it :) Noel [/QUOTE]
