28,148 PointsAfter you install wordpress in the htdocs folder, you'll have to manually put the theme folder you download into the themes folder in your wordpress installation.

15,754 PointsKevin Korte the reason i got lost because i have a PC instead of the MAC . I am using the Xampp .
Kevin Korte
28,148 PointsIt should be exactly the same. I use Windows 8 at work with Xampp, and I have a Macbook Pro at home with MAMP and both have almost identical folder structures, both of which are called htdocs, which by default is MAMP's and XAMPP's root location. Did you get if figured out?
