Hi Sarah,
What is command shift c doing? Command plus c will copy, ready for pasting
later, but what is command plus shift plus c that you mentioned?

You can move it to trash but you skipped a step after you move the skype.app
to the apps folder hit cmd shift c and hit command e on the skype icon
there.

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for the instructions. I moved skype.app to the applications
folder. I then went into the computer list and located skype.dmg in my
downloads folder. In the file menu eject (command+e) is dimmed, though
move to trash is available. Is that what I want?

Wo! no no no! don't do that!
1. open the dmg from the downloads folder. another finder window will
open.
2. press cmd 2 to get to list mode.
3. copy the skype.app.
4. press cmd shift a to get to applications and paste. Now eject the dmg
from the computer place by
1. going to the computer list with cmd shift C.
2. find the skype.dmg
3. pressing cmd E.
Take care.

Greetings,
Thanks to Sarah and Erik I'm more comfortable with the finder so I copied
the SKYPE disk image file from downloads to applications and can now open
it from there. I gather these dmg files are executable and there's no
installation process necessary after downloading?
Why was "cut" dimmed? Since I copied it to applications do I now have
two 45 meg files? I see that command+delete under the file menu is also
dimmed so deleting from downloads does not appear to be an option.
TIA for any info about these files and best regards.
Geoff
