[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1747274, member: 83420"] I agree with Admin chscag. Just for reference, the "rules" are: Command + Drag = Moves Option + Drag = Copies Command + Option + Drag = creates an Alias Also, built into the OS, just Dragging from one area of the Mac to another = Moves. Whereas just Dragging from an area of the Mac to an External device = Copies (But to be doubly certain, I always prefer doing it as shown above). As regards the Copy/Paste function, it is Command + C and Command + V (I'm sure you know, but just in case you didn't remember the Command bit). Ian [/QUOTE]
