Need a lesson here. New iMac. I've been using Photostream with my PC for a while now. I had set up a Photostream folder on the PC and the photos would automatically end up in that folder. Now as best I can tell using the iMac, either I have to set up a smart folder or have the stream download into iPhoto (which I hadn't intended to use because I have Photoshop Elements and Lightroom instead). I set up iPhoto to access Photostream and they are there in iPhoto but I gather they are not on the computer anywhere, unless I "import it into the library", at which point it shows up in "photos" on iPhoto but I can't find it anywhere else on the computer. Where are these stored? I want to be able to just go to a folder that has all my Photostream pics and email them or open them in an editing program. Are my assumptions correct, i.e. do I have to manually add every Photostream photo to the library, and if so, where is the file on my Mac? I'd like to access it using Finder. I'm befuddled.
And while I'm at it....I'm writing a document in Word and want to save it to a subfolder inside of Documents. Is that not possible? It appears to only save files to the main folder.
Hate feeling like a newbie, but I am when it comes to Macs.
