Tony, I just tried PS (v13) and opened a blank new file. It saved to the desktop automatically. I also opened an existing PSD file and then did “save as” and the file ended up in the folder it was originally stored in. ( this could be an issue if you do not know where the storage folder resides?
For safety I ALWAYS save new pics either off my iPhone or my Nikon D300 in a folder called “D300”. I then make backups in two ways. 1. to an ext hard drive labelled D70/D300 and 2. my Timemachine regular backups. I also use another house computer to store results of other shoots relevant to the user of the other computer.
