Shader route in Alias Mac? cannot access

Hey guys, this is probably under silly Alias questions.
New to the Mac, but not to Alias.

When i am to insert a pix file or anything beyond simple colors in Alias i cannot access the folder where they are located; as the Shader folder is inside the Alias app folder, it only indicates the QUICK PIC option.

How do i fix this? Somehow i this this to be more of an Mac issue than an Alias one. But still, have not found a solution on the Mac forums.

Thanks

If you go into finder outside of Alias you should be able to right click/option+Click the app and copy the shaders/pix folder into another location on your HDD.
