# Reporting Issues
**Before** submitting an issue, read [Reporting Issues](https://github.com/mcedit/mcedit/wiki/Reporting-Issues) and be sure to include all of the required info in your description.
**Before** submitting an issue, read [Reporting Issues](https://github.com/mcedit/mcedit/wiki/Reporting-Issues) and be sure to include all of the required info in your description:
* **Steps to Reproduce** - Step by step, tell us exactly which buttons to click on, text to enter, and keys to press that lead you to discover the problem.
* **MCEdit Version Number** - Found in the title bar of the main window.
* **Minecraft Version Number** - You should already know how to find this. Also include a list of the mods you are using.
* **Operating System Version** - At the very least, say whether you are on Windows, Mac, or Linux. To get a more exact version (e.g. "Windows Vista SP1 64-bit", "Mac OS X 10.6.4"):
+ Windows: click Start, then right-click Computer and choose "Properties".
+ Mac OS X: Choose "About This Mac" from the Apple menu.
+ Linux: See your distro's documentation to find out how to get the version number.
+ An animal is not a version number.<br><br>
* **Error log** - If MCEdit tells you it had an error, there will be vital information inside the console window and/or error log file. On Windows, this is the file `mcedit.log` inside the `MCEdit-<version>-<platform>` folder. Use [pastebin](http://pastebin.com/) or [gist](https://gist.github.com/) for logs longer than a dozen lines. On Mac OS X, error info can be copied from the Console utility. (`mcedit.log` is also present on OS X, though it's buried deep inside the application bundle.) On Linux, the error log will be shown on the terminal you started MCEdit from.
