Applications Folder on Macintosh HD Shows Empty Before attempting to migrate data from my Time Machine, I looked in to see if my Adobe applications and others were there to transfer.  The folder is empty.  Is this normal?  Thanks.
There are two Application folders. One is under the root directory and should contain all of your Applications. This is /Applications

The other folder is in the User directory, so ~/Applications. ~/ is a shorthand for /Users/&lt;UserName&gt;. That folder is usually empty or has one or two stray Apps in there.
