 If you installed Tor Browser Bundle, look for
 <code>Data/Tor/torrc</code> inside your Tor Browser Bundle directory. 
+On OS X, you must right-click or command-click on the browser bundle icon, 
+and select "Show Package Contents" before the Tor Browser directories become 
+visible. 
 </p>
 <p>
 Tor puts the torrc file in <code>/usr/local/etc/tor/torrc</code> if you compiled tor from source, and <code>/etc/tor/torrc</code> or <code>/etc/torrc</code> if you installed a pre-built package.</p>
