Can Destination Folder be part of a Preset script?

Is it possible, from within a Preset script, to select the option to "Move to another folder" and select the destination folder as part of the Preset script?
In other words, when I select a Preset, there would be no need for me to then select "Move to another folder" and browse to the destination folder before hitting "Rename".
This feature would not only save steps for the user, but would prevent mistakes as a result of failing to change the default Destination Folder option or browsing to the wrong folder.

but as is often the case, Adobe's website crashed with the message "It's no longer possible to create a Photoshop.com account"
While I agree with your statement that Adobe is quite capable of messing up their websites I don't understand this one.
You don't need to create a new account, just sign in with your Adobe Account (top right of page, next to Adobe logo), the same you've already used for this Bridge forum and other Adobe sites.
I just checked and had no problem at all signing in with my Adobe ID

After installing Mavericks I can no longer save a new word document or pdf by typing the name of the destination folder in the Finder window. The save button greys out. Solutions anyone?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

When moving a file using drag and drop, as I hover over the destination folder it no longer opens, so I can't drop the file into the folder. Why?

When moving a file using drag and drop, as I hover over the destination folder it no longer opens, so I can't drop the file into the folder. Why? I have a heirarchical embedded folder structure under \Documents. Usually, as I drag the file to be moved over the various folders, they will blink twice, then expand/open to reveal contents (in Finder). Now, when the file to be moved is held (hovering) over the destination folder, it will not blink or expand, so there's no place to drop the file. If I release the mouse button, the file image disappears, showing that it is "going back to the place it came from", a.k.a. was not moved. This just started happening. I noticed it after upgrading to Mavericks. Is this a bug or could anything else be causing this?

As of today, Apple Support discovered during a remote support session with me that the same thing happens on their own system. It is isolated to "Column View"; the Icon and List views in Finder behave correctly. Issue is being escalated to engineering, and Apple will call to report status in a couple days. In all likelihood, this is a bug that will need to be addressed in a future update.

Try this it worked for me Pat Willener gave it to me off the site :
I have not read all you wrote, so I may have missed some points. As I understand it, you installed FP 10 on IE7, but it won't play any Flash content?
Try this
download the FP uninstaller from http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
close all browser windows, then run the uninstaller
download the offline ActivX installer for Internet Explorer from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
close all browser windows, then run the installer

Can't install iTunes on Win7, wrong destination folder

Trying to install iTunes.
But the installation package use the wrong path/destination folder, it wants to install on G:/
There is no G:/ on my laptop! There has never been a G:/ only a C:/
Solution anyone....?

Hello Gesturinn,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article outlines troubleshooting issues when attempting to install iTunes. In your circumstance, it may be as simple as choosing "Save As..." (and ultimately choose a location) instead of "Run".

Destination Folder not showing content after Export

I am running in a problem with 3.2 when I export Canon Raw images from one folder to another. What is happening is that post the completion of the export the destination folder will either show only part of the exported images, or none at all. This applies to the folder file count and what is visible in the destination folder in terms of visible images. IHowever, when I open up Windows Explorer or BreezeBrowser Pro, the content of the folder is correct. Here are the solutions I have tried:
1) Right-click on the destination folder and attempt to select "Synchronize Folder". However, it is grayed out.
2) Refresh the database and restart LR. This has not impact. However, "Synchronize Folder" is not availabe and it will show the missing quantity so then and if I pick "Synchronize" it will bring up the Import box and I will then click on import and now the destination folder shows the correct number of images and they are visible after open it.
3) When all else fails I do a repain install and that seems to correct the problem for a while.
Despite all these remedies the issue eventually reoccurs.
I am running Win 7 64 with 8G of ram and plenty of HD space. Anybody seen this behavior and if yes, found any solutions? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help.

Sounds like a damaged database file.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Blackberry Desktop software destination folder issue

My company has created a personal profile on my laptop. They have a preset limit as to the size of that profile. When that profile size has been exceeded, I can neither shut down or log off my computer until I go in and delete enough files to get below the limit.
One of the folders in that profile is C:/documents and settings/rangel/Application Data (rangel in my profile name).
Well, when I install the Blackberry Desktop software on my machine, it automatically loads the software into Application Data without asking me where I want to save it. Also, every time I connect my phone to sync, a file called Loader Cache is created and causes me to exceed my profile space.
I've already gone into the desktop software and changed the folder destination for my Backup and Organizer data, but it won't allow me to change the destination folder for anything else.
I can't just go into Windows Explorer and "cut and paste" these folders because the software won't find them the next time I connect my phone. I don't know enough about the folders to just delete them and what issues deleting them causes. Unfortunately, however, I really have no other choice. I have to go in and manually delete the folders and then the next time I connect my phone, my profile space is exceeded again.
Does anyone know of a way that I can change the destination folder for my desktop software files (other than Backup and Oranizer data)???
Thanks!

How choose destination folder for images edited in external program?

Using LR 2.3 with the Windows 7 beta. It seems to me there should be a preference or option to set the destination folder for an image sent for editing in Photoshop. The default is the folder where the originals are located, which seems to me to be the worst choice. In any event, I can't find where in LR the user can choose a destination folder for the edited image. Ideally, the user should be able to choose this for each set of images being edited, and the choice would be available in the dialog that appears when the user sends an image out to Photoshop.
So is there a way to set the destination folder for the image that results from sending an image out for editing in Photoshop or other external application?
Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks very much. I have CS4, but haven't installed it yet. So I have been using the rendering option. Apparently that is part of the problem, because I seem to recall that there was a Save As option shown when LR 2 was compatible with whatever the ACR with CS3 was.
Saving with originals seems an odd default. I wouldn't think too many photographers mix processed work with originals, and making the destination folder choice always available wouldn't seem to be a particularly difficult piece of engineering.
Anyway, your answer was very helpful.

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program.

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and upgraded the memory and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program. I can see the hard drive in the disk utilities window however it wont let me do anything.
It is a seagate 1TB SATA II drive however it is displaying it as a 7.3 TB.
If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them.
I have tried to erase and partition and get the same error message each time, 'Input/Output error'.
I have tried starting the thing with the install disk which is Mac OS X (Tiger?) which came with the computer. No good.
Anyone?

Thats correct. I can see it in the list however when I attempt to erase it or partition it it's like it's not being found or recognised and it throws up the input/output error message. I am pretty sure that the sensor it attached correctly and it is a SATA drive. I can see all the infor regarding the drive when disk utility is open and it all looks good but I cant access it or do anything with it. It's taunting me!
The install disk is in the drive and the install program runs right up to the point where you have to select the location for the install and there is just nothing in the box where you have to select the hard drive icon.
I have my suspiscions about the drive but any help would be appreciated.

How to install os x if destination folder is empty?

Hi all,
just received my i mac back with a new harddisk installed.
When trying to install my os x version 1.0.3(116.1) the mac starts running but then when the destination folder pops up, it remains empty...
Can sbdy advice me what to do, I can also not eject the dvd as it remains in use...
Thank you1

You will probably have to reformat your new drive correctly. If you can still see the Utilities folder from the installer screen (I believe it remains visible at that point; if not, try backing out of the screens, or, as a last resort, reboot to the installer and, instead of going through the steps, use the Utilities menu as soon as you see it) run Disk Utility.
Choose your new drive in the left side, use the Erase tab to reformat as Mac Extended (Journaled). Once you click Apply, and quit DU, you should now see the drive available in the installer.

If all .exe files are blocked, antivirus software is most likely configured to block them. See if you can download these with your antivirus and/or security software disabled.

Custom "Save as PDF" directly to a destination folder overwrites previously saved PDF files

Custom "Save as PDF" directly to a destination folder overwrites previously saved PDF files
As many of you will know, within Mac OSX it is possible to "print" any document off as a PDF. You simply prepare your document then invoke the "Print" command and in the resulting print dialog box, click the "PDF" button in the bottom left corner which spills out a menu with various options including "Save as PDF..." as shown in the image below:
Selecting the last option "Edit Menu" permits users to add specific folders to which a PDF of the document will be saved. As you will note from the image above, I have created a number of destinations such as "Bank Transfers" (for anything on screen in Safari I wish to preserve when using my on-line banking facility); "Bind" (which I use with an Automator workflow to consolidate many PDFs into one long document); "Officeworks" (for stuff I need to copy to a USB stick and have printed on on large plotters); "iPad" (for anything I need to put on my iPad through "iAnnotate" or "Documents") etc
The problem I have discovered is that with the introduction of Mountain Lion, PDFs that get saved directly to a destination folder get overwritten by later versions of PDFs that are produced from the same document. This is fine when working on a single document that you may want to have the latest print of a document but not so when you produce many different PDFs from the same browser window in Safari as you surf through a number of websites etc.
Prior to Mountain Lion, pervious versions were never over-written but rather preserved them with new versions having version number suffixes added e.g., untitled.pdf, followed by untitled1.pdf, untitled2.pdf, untitled3.pdf etc.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? (other than a workaround like switching to Finder to rename or move files around)

The "Save to Web Receipts" bug existed for a long time - here's a MacOSXHints article offering a workaround in 2007. Here's another reference to it in 2009. Your contention that:
Prior to Mountain Lion, pervious [sic] versions were never over-written.
is, I'm afraid, wrong.
Apple fixed (worked around) that bug by using a .pdfworkflow, as I indicated. As I also indicated, this file can't be opened with Automator (or I just don't know how, which is no great surprise ). But it's the answer to your problems.
You can either wait for Apple to fix what is, admittedly, a huge bug in their PDF Services feature, or you can find a way of implementing the same fix they did for your own folders.
I should be doing the same, as I use PDF Services regularly, but I'm too lazy and have had too little success with Automator in general to give it a shot. You may have more success than I did.
Good luck

Destination folder in Actions and Batch

I use Photoshop CS on a Mac G4 (PPC) with OS X 10.4.11.
I need to convert large folders of JPEGs with sRGB profile to Adobe RGB. I recorded an 'action' , which works fine, except for one thing. Here are the instructions from the Photoshop Help files:
To create a new action:
Open a file.
In the Actions palette, click the New Action button , or choose New Action from the Actions palette menu.
Enter a name for the action.
(Photoshop) Choose a set from the pop-up menu.
If desired, set one or both of the following options:
Assign a keyboard shortcut to the action. You can choose any combination of a Function key, the Ctrl key (Windows) or Command key (Mac OS), and the Shift key (for example, Ctrl+Shift+F3), with these exceptions: In Windows, you cannot use the F1 key, nor can you use F4 or F6 with the Ctrl key.
(Photoshop) Assign a color for display in Button Mode.
Click Record. The Record button in the Actions palette turns red .
Important: When recording the Save As command, do not change the filename. If you enter a new filename, Photoshop records the filename and uses that filename each time you run the action. Before saving, if you navigate to a different folder, you can specify a different location without having to specify a filename.
Choose the commands, and perform the operations you want to record.
To stop recording, either click the Stop button, choose Stop Recording from the Actions palette menu, or press the Escape key. To resume recording in the same action, choose Start Recording from the Actions palette menu.
It's the 'Important:' bit under 6. that I'm concerned about If, when recording the action, I specify, say, 'Desktop' in which to 'Save As...', and then when I use the Batch command I specify a particular (different) destination folder, I end up with two lots of converted images: one lot in the destination folder, the other on the desktop. If, when recording the action, I specify a particular place to save in, then I can't (or can I?) use this action on another occasion when I haven't created a destination folder of that name and want to specify a new destination folder under 'Batch'. And if I specify the same destination folder in the recorded action and in 'Batch', I run into further trouble.
What is the right thing to do? Thank you in anticipation of help.
