Still getting used to the mac os and was wondering when you install an application it shows a picture saying to drag the icon to your applications folder. First question is what is the difference between the hd icon on your desktop and the icon for the program? Also I do not like icons on my desktop so can I move that hd icon to a folder I create and just store them all there? Also I notice when I do drag the icon to the applications folder I see the progress bar saying it is adding it but then it makes an error noise or least it sounds like it to me....what is that? I want to make it simple as possible and have all my icons for programs I use just on the dock and not hd icons all over my desktop. Thank you for your help on this and have a great weekend all
