Hi,
don't you just hate it that everything works so smoothly on mac?
I switched from PC about a year ago and up until then got very frustrated every time i had to install an audio software or a dedicated plugin or so...
I new by heart the default locations of basic and default install, cause i had to, cause only rarely it was plug and play...
now on mac, i dont have any excuses not to get up and start working...
Everything just flies, works... very few problems so far...
The biggest issue i have is that i started to lose connection with the OS internals...
Every now and then i have to look up or change the path of the install....
i am lost...
I want to know are there any rules while installing. By default, what goes where...
for instance...
just the other day i had to make an alias on the install folder of a certain plugin. the alias is used cause i had to move a large sample library to an external drive...
Instead of
user/library/app support/home folder
i have mistakenly work with
HD/library/app support/home folder
my mistake entirely, but still...
i know every software install should vary from one maker to another, but still there has to be a logic behind it?
is there any tutorial or basic understanding of how MAC OS x install procedure works?
anybody cares?
