building floating above terrain

I'm a student very new to ArchiCAD on a Mac. My building is floating above the terrain and I can't work out how to fix it. It's probably really simple but I can't find the solution! Can someone please help? Thanks so much

Go to the 3D view, grab the terrain and select the "elevate' option off your pet pallet then drag it to the right position. Or go to the mesh setting dialogue box and set the reference plane in accordance to the level you have your floor level set at.

Also take a look on this tip Mr. Matthew Lodhen gave me a couple month ago (because in my case the terrain wouldn't elevate until I did what he described - see the link)...
