Using Macs at WSA (basics)

Materials on creating files and folders on the Mac Operating System (10.5 / Leopard). Creating folders to organise your files is very important, this will help you to keep track of your work, create simple backups (making copies of data so that these additional copies may be used to restore the original after a data loss event.) and much much more. Whatever computer you like using, they all work on the basic principle of using folders to organise files. Files and folder should have meaningful names do not use special Characters like £$%&! and never use a ‘.’ except before a file extension. It is best to start creating your folders in the documents (or my documents) folder and not on your desktop, it gets untidy.
