Q: Windows User Converting to Mac...

When saving documents I am use to the Windows way of building file folders inside of other file folders. I can do this, however when I go to save a document within an application, I cannot access the sub-folders within the main folder to save my file, instead I have to save it in a folder within the Finder. Is there a way to perform this task when saving documents?

 

Thank you.

iMac, iOS 6

    I am having trouble following your question, so I am not sure if this is the answer:

     

    In the Save dialog, just to the right of the text box where you enter the file name is a button with a triangle that points either up or down. If it points down, click on it. Then you can navigate anywhere to save your file.
