Your issue isn''t really with rails, it''s in understanding the
*nix
directory structure and how to use the command line, I think.

If you open your Finder, and go to your home directory, you will
probably see a folder there called "profile". When you are in the
Terminal, the prompt:

Tjtog-iMac:~ tejasmehta$

refers to:

 your machine name: Tjtog-iMac
 ~: shorthand for your home directory
 tejasmehta: your user name I''m assuming

when you created the rails app profile, it created a folder
''profile''
under your home directory.

to make a new app, go back to your home directory (or another directory
other than ''profile'') and run the rails new app again.

I would strongly suggest getting the Mac Missing Manual for your edition
of OS/X and read through it.
