Hi,

All your drives in Mac are listed in Volumes (its not like Windows, mac uses a Unix like file system so everything shows up under the same 'drive' ie / If you mount network shares, insert a CDROM or USB stick they will all be in the Volumes folder.

Thanks, that's interesting.... but it doesn't get me to a directory of drives it only shows the main internal drive, not any external devices - tres bizarre!

Hi,

Click File -> Open
In the top right corner there are some buttons. Hover your mouse over them and the one with the Folder Icon and the arrow pointing upwards should show 'Up one level.' Click this twice and it will take you to the root of your file system. Other disks are found in the Volumes folder.

Hope this helps

Tom

I just downloaded openoffice and can't manage to open anything not in my Users folder - I use a Mac (OS 10.49) - usually the open command on any app will allow you to navigate the various drives on your computer, and then folders in that drive; but not this - what's up?

Thanks
