Viewing package contents (Macintosh only)

On the Macintosh, Fireworks is installed in a format called the application program package. This is a feature from Apple that allows applications to be installed in a self-contained package.

The application package is where the Fireworks application file is stored, along with all default configuration files that come with Fireworks. Package contents are hidden by default.

After you open the package, you'll notice a number of files and folders.

To show or hide the contents of the Fireworks application program package:

  1. Navigate to the location on your hard disk where you installed Fireworks.
  2. Control-click the FireWorks icon and select Show Package Contents from the context menu.

    A new window opens displaying the package contents.
