Sharon,
Belay my last post, please, about Wudworx not working with SketchUp 2014. I found your directions on https://sites.google.com/site/wudworx/in-the-news/sketchup2014verified and all is now working just fine.
Sorry for bothering you...

TIG -- You, sir, are a genius! It worked just as you said it would. Many, many thanks!
TIG, I took your advice. Searched for how to show hidden files on a Mac running OS X 10.8. The directions said to use the application Terminal and type in "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true"; hit Enter; type in "killall Finder"; and hit enter. That actually worked and I could then see all the hidden files. I again worked my way down the hierarchy of folders "Users/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8.0" and I find two folders: SketchUp and Style builder -- but no LayOut. I also did a Spotlight search for LayOut folders but none are found, even among the ones previously hidden. I couldn't pursue the "permissions" issue since I still can't even see the folder(s). Any other ideas? Any MacPerts who want to rise to the occasion?
When I click on File and then on Save As Template... the pop-up window allows me to type a Template Name, but the Template Folder is "grayed out." The Save button is also "grayed out." When I click on the "grayed out" text in the Template Folder box, it turns blue. It reads, "/Users/.../Layout/Templates". However I cannot change the text other than double-clicking and deleting it. It won't let me type in any text. Further when I go back to the finder and navigate to where others have told me the LayOut Templates are located I cannot find the folder. When I go down the hierarchy of "Users/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8.0" I find two folders: SketchUp and Style builder -- but no LayOut. I also did a Spotlight search for LayOut folders but none are found. I'm running LayOut 3.0.16845 on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.8.2.
I'm stumped. Will one of you seasoned LayOut experts please steer me in the right direction? I'd appreciate your help!
