Accidentally deleted my sky directory, where is that folder stored (on Mac)? **RESOLVED**

edited January 2014 in New Users

I finally got my content sorted out, but in my frantic fiddling, I ended up deleting the directory that had all of my sky scenes. I've figured out how to add directories, but I can't seem to find where the skies are stored. I looked at the info on my landscape scenes, but I can't see the whole path. All I can see is "........ .app/Contents/MacOS/Scenes/Landscapes

Any help here would be appreciated.

    I'm not sure what you mean. If this is purchased content (or a freebie) why not just reinstall it?

    Looks like Carrara, as Richard says, why not download again with DIM?

    I realize now that what I mean by directory may be unclear. When I open up Carrara, my bottom pane has tabs with all of my content. The scenes tab has a tree that started with skies, then went to landscapes, etc. I highlighted the skies category in that list, went over and clicked the little black piece of paper icon on the far right of the pane (the one that gives you options such as get info, add file, delete folder, etc). I clicked delete folder on accident, so that is no longer showing up in my list of scenes.

    The skies were included when I first installed Carrara, so that was not content that I downloaded through DIM. Now I have tried uninstalling Carrara (via DIM) and installing it again, but I still don't have my sky scenes.

    I kind of wish I could just delete the entire thing and start over, but it won't reset after I uninstall.

    Also, thank you both for your help.

    If anyone has a similar issue, these files are .CAR files and are found in the following directory:

    /Users/Shared/DAZ 3D/InstallManager/Downloads/downloaded content/IM00016175-01_Carrara8NativeContent/Carrara_8.5;8/Scenes/skies
