Installing WordPress Theme Unit Data

If your using a MAC you will need to set file permissions to allow for updating and downloading plugins/themes without the use of setting up the FTP and manually adding them into the htdocs folder.

The link below will walk you through this to set it up to work.

This video will show you how to fix the permissions issue so that you can download plugins via WordPress without manually adding them or using the FTP settings.

I would make a short cut to the xampp folder for your htdocs on your desktop this makes it quicker to get to your files.

Its also good to note that xampp when you update to newer versions can destroy your mysql databases so download them before you upgrade as this happened to me before I made the jump to MAMP.
