[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1737233, member: 46727"] To add to Nick's good advice.... Many applications will automatically store their files in certain places. For example, you mentioned Powerpoint. Microsoft Office will store your custom templates in a special folder called "My Templates". Powerpoint visuals or slide presentations will be stored in your "Documents" folder all under your main User folder. At first it may sound confusing especially coming from Windows, but eventually it will all fall in place. The nice thing about the Mac file system is that there is no registry to mess with. :) [/QUOTE]
