I'm not sure what you're trying to respond to in here. I was just saying how it makes a difference to install in the application folder, am I not right? And the difference is that only that Pd application will see it. While we're at it, am I right to say that it makes a difference if things are installed in the global or user path? I'm assuming that the global folder affects all Pd applications for all users, then the user folder affects all Pd applications for that user. > i suppose you are running OSX as an "admin" user. it might be, but it's not a decision, I just bought the machine, turned it on and started using it... cheers
