      Something i need to also understand is the difference in saving

      The file names change sometimes
      example

      doc1.skp is what i opened
      gets changed to 0.skp
      then 1.skp
      for the most recent......

      whys this?

      c

          0.skp, 1.skp is temp files SketchUp to to write to, once the model is successfully written to file the 0.skp file will replace the original and 0.skp will be removed.

                  They should not remain - something strange is going on. Where are you storing your files? Network drive?

                      i've experienced another difference.
                      (PC) I resized the viewport and all the tool bars I'd arranged neatly are now haphazardly all over the place. ?

                        Yes. This is a normal sort of thing. After you put the toolbars where you want them, go to View>Toolbars and choose Save toolbar (or whatever it says.) In the future you can choose Restore Toolbars to reset them after resizing the window.
