[QUOTE="rboseley, post: 892299, member: 105916"] [b]Check my File Structure[/b] Since day one, I have been “confused” by the OS X file structure. Once again, in my defense, I remind that I have spent the last 40 years dealing with MS-DOS. How that things are up and running, and I’m getting the hang of Mac - I decided to dig a bit deeper into the file hierarchy. Still confused - in fact I am not sure my structure is correct. At the top is [myname Macbook Pro] - containing Mac HD and Network.This may take some room - but here is the structure. Why does the Library file appear twice? I still need to break down folders such as Excel, Word, Page, etc. further - but is this structure correct? File Structure RB’s Mac Mac HD --- Applications Net Downloaded Library System User Guide Users --------------- RB ----- Desktop SEE BELOW Downloads Household Library Movies Music Pictures Public Rescue Tool Utilities Documents Excel Files iChats Madone SS MS User Data Movies/Videos --------- Divx Movies Printer iMovie Projects Numbers Files Real Play DL’s Page Docs Veoh PFD’s You Tube Downloads Word Files I still need to breakdown some Doc folders further - but does this look right?
