The Bases and Books directories are inside the Scid.app bundle, if Scid is inside the Applications folder, the paths are the following: /Applications/Scid.app/Contents/Resources/share/bases /Applications/Scid.app/Contents/Resources/share/books If it' not inside that folder, just replace /Applications with the path to Scid.
