 If you would like place the GSAS-II app in another location (for example your computer's desktop) to make it convenient to start GSAS-II, you need to make an alias. The alias can be moved. Press control and click on the GSAS-II app (or use right-click with a 2 or 3 button mouse) and a menu of options is shown. Click on "Make Alias" and a new file, "GSAS-II alias" is created in that folder.

 == In case of problems == 
+
+If you are able to download the ```g2conda-Mac.sh``` file, but have a problem installing it, you may not be executing the command properly. Please make sure you are typing ```bash``` correctly and leaving a space between that and the file name, also be sure you are allowed to write files to the location you choose for installation. 
+
+If you are able to install the Python files, but the downloading of GSAS-II fails (Step 4), you may need to specify a proxy; contact a computer/network support person for your institution. While it may be simpler to delete the directory where you have installed the files (typically ```.../g2conda```) and resume from Step 2, it is also possible to rerun the bootstrap.py file using a command such as 
+
+   ```<path>/bin/python <path>GSASII/bootstrap.py```
