Click on the Prefs icon or select Preferences from the Edit menu to select your TimeTracker preferences.  

New File defaults applies to new TimeTracker documents created when you select New from the File menu.  For example, if you wanted new documents to have “Auto-Save” checked under the File menu, you would check the box “Auto-Save.”  If you wanted “Mark New Time Entries” checked under the Time menu, you would check the box “Mark New Time Entries.”  The section “Elapsed Time Display” sets the default for the Elapsed Time Display.  This value can be changed later by selecting Display from the Time menu. When the display time is changed, the actual time entry is not altered, but rounded up to the nearest increment.  For example, if you set the preferences to use 6 minute increments, and you work for 13 minutes, the time entry displays 18 minutes.  Decimal notation is only available for increments above 1 minute and for 100ths of an hour.

New Time Entry defaults applies when you create new time entries.  In this example, when you click on the Start button, the new time entry will have an hourly rate of $35.50 and have the category set to “Computer”.

Auto-File Saving lets you set the Auto-Save minutes.  This can be from 1 to 60 minutes.  In this example, if Auto-Save is checked in the File menu, all open TimeTracker documents will be automatically saved to disk every 5 minutes.

When Saving a File to Disk lets you turn on or off some features of TimeTracker when saving a file to disk.

Columns Displayed lets you choose which columns you would like to have displayed.
