The location that Prism saves templates, method and example files depends on which operating system you use, and which version of Prism.
The locations below are for Prism 5. Replace "5" with "6" if you use Prism 6.
These are the default locations for templates. You can choose a different location in the Preferences dialog.

MAC. Launching from a network
With a "G" license (no longer sold), it was possible to install Prism on a network server, and then access it from other computers on the network. In this case,Prism saves templates directly in the Prism.app file (which is actually a bundle). The location within the bundle in this location. Use the command Show Package Contents to see files and folders saved in the bundle.
