Ah ok thanks. I always download the targz even on Mac, recently been coerced into using Mac while most of the time I have always (and still do) prefered working with Linux.
When you do this on Mac, this is what you get which I have never used before.
Press APPLE + "," (Comma) or use "IntelliJ IDEA->Preferences" top menu (left-most menu)
You're right - this seems confusing, please watch http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-88220
