I saved a lot (100)custom swatches in Illustrator CS4 and want to transfer them to a new Mac book but can not find the user defined folder location on my old I Mac. Anybody know how to find them?

MacHD/Users?<yourname>/Library?Application Support/Adobe/AdobeAICS#/Presets/en_US/Swatches would be a place to start.

I saved my IE favorites from my work computer on a cd-r and want to transfer them to my new Win7 home computer. I have thousands of them in hundreds of folders. What is the easiest way to put them into my new computer? I am using FF 6. Thanks.

I am using FF6.

Photos taken by and saved to the iPod are included in the backup that iTunes makes evetime you sync or if do a manual or iCloud backup.
Per the following the backup includes:
iTunes: About iOS backups
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Thus if you backed up after the photos were taken yuo can restore an iDevice from that backup

I have a lot of music on my iTunes on my PC an i just got a new mac and want to transfer the music to my Mac

I need to find a way to transfer music from my itunes on the pc to my Mac pro.

If they are iTunes purchases then you should be able to copy them over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes 11 on your computer) - that should also copy any other purchases over e.g. apps etc.
If it's music from other sources (e.g. CDs) and you don't have them on your computer nor on a backup then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them off : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Before starting the update you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case.

I have Pages 09. I have created custom templates and want to delete them. How do I delete a template I have created in Pages 09?

Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The door to the user's Library is hidden in Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your users Library will appear about halfway down the list.

Can I take a frame from my project and use it as a custom menu background with CS4 and its Encore

My project is edited in CS4.
I moved it to Encore CS4.
I don't want to use any of the supplied menu templates in CS4 Encore.
I was hoping CS4 would be all I needed to create custom menus using scenes from my project.
My question is: Can I take a frame from my project and use it as a custom menu background with CS4 and its built in Encore or do I need some other element from the Adobe catalog to make these custom chapter menus and sub-menus?
Thanks Jim

OK, I'm back. Here are my steps for creating Custom Menus with PS, En and PrPro:
In PrPro, move the CTI (Current Time Indicator) to the desired Frame. Check Frames on either side, with the Program Monitor’s Magnification to 100%, or maybe even 200% (you’ll need to scroll, but get a really clear picture). You want the clearest Frame in that area. With AME, in CS4, you’ll want to Export that Frame as .TIFF, or .BMP. I use .TIFF for this.
Now, for a caveat. When you Import this Exported Frame into Photoshop, be sure to check the specs., especially the PAR. You may have to use Image>PAR to adjust this to match your Project’s specs. Or, all might be perfect - just check this out.
Now, at this point, I choose the Library Menu, Blank, so that everything is setup. One can create the Menu from scratch, but careful attention needs to be paid to the exact naming conventions. At the very least, unless you’ve done this dozens of times before, use that Blank Menu, or similar as a guide, so you get things done, as they must be done.
Using that Blank Menu, just drag the Layer from your Exported Frame to your Menu image. It will appear above the black Background.
Add, or manipulate your Button Layer Sets, as is required, keeping them together. Remember that Button #1 will be the Button Layer Set, that is lower down in the Layers Palette. This can play a roll with Button Routing, back in Encore. Lower Button Layer Sets will have lower Button numbers.
Now, I always rename my Button Layer Sets, keeping the required characters - just changing the name. I also do all of my Button text in PS, and make sure to turn OFF Sync Button Names.
When done, Save_As .PSD, and then Import_As_Menu into Encore. Note: if you start with the Blank Menu, you can choose Edit in Photoshop, and then when done in PS, you just need to Save, and it will update in Encore. This is a personal workflow choice. I do the Edit in Photoshop route, but it is not necessary. One just needs to Import the resulting .PSD into Encore with Import_As_Menu, so that Encore does all the things that it needs to and recognizes the .PSD as a Menu.
When deciding what to base your Menu on, remember that you can "populate" your Menu with Buttons from the Functional Content. I’d suggest studying these Assets, and picking the ones that work best for you. You can still alter/edit those back in PS, so you just need to "get close."
Pay special attention to the required naming conventions. You cannot deviate from those first characters in the Button Layer Sets. They MUST be followed.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.
Good luck,
Hunt

I have saved My Google Chrome bookmarks as HTML and want to import them into my mozilla bookmarks, when I go to import HTML it seems to load somthing but when I go back to check my bookmarks in mozilla they are not there. I would like to use mozilla more

I have saved My Google Chrome bookmarks as HTML and want to import them into my mozilla bookmarks, when I go to import HTML it seems to load something but when I go back to check my bookmarks in mozilla they are not there. I would like to use mozilla more often then Chrome so I need please help keeping my Chrome bookmarks.

@Carolyn:
Yes, I did search before but restricted it to the past month, because I had the feeling that it’s worse now since the update to 5.1.10, but I may be wrong.
It seems this is an old and unsolved common problem.
@andy:
“Top Sites” is hot, but I’ve never used that funny dots without any mouse-over text.
After deleting (before starting Safari) it’s restored by a default TopSites.plist, it seems these cookies
- are only reloaded when viewing the Top Sites (?)
- are not among my reappearing cookies, I have never seen such a cookie / cache on my system before (e.g. expedia, orbitz, monster, usatoday, disney, craigslist).
And Top Sites would not explain why the Web Inspector has different infos regarding use of cookies and local storage than Safari’s “Privacy” tab.
After playing with deleting TopSites.plist, without surfing, suddenly I have ”121 cookies or other data” at Safari’s Privacy tab, nearly all are listed as “Cache” or “Cache, Cookies” but the Web Inspector doesn’t show any of them, only my google.co.uk items.
---> Thanks, I’ll send a feedback to Apple.

Modify tint swatch in Illustrator CS4

If you make a tint swatch in InDesign CS4, you can edit the percentage applied simply by double clicking the swatch and dragging the percentage slider at the bottom of the dialog box. How can I achieve the same results in Illustrator?
P.D.: Now, the only solution I found (very complex for such a simple task) is to use the various select options of the Selection menu to select the objects using the same tint percentage, modify it with the color panel and then saving another tint swatch.

Yes, tedious. I learned this when I first migrated from FreeHand.
The trick is to not bother making tint swatches (!) (I know, I know. A departure from custom. Of course, you can make them if you want, but they turn out to be superfluous.)
Instead, I color select objects with "unnamed" tints, and when I need to modify them, I use the magic wand with a very low tolerance to select the fills (pretty instantly) and strokes (pretty instantly) and adjust the slider accordingly. Because I've gotten so accustomed to this contortion, I've actually forgotten how much of a contortion it is compared to what you're accustomed to.
If someone knows a better way, have at it by all means please.

FIOS CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE WORST AND I AM NOT INSTALLED YET FOR NEW SERVICE!!

So on May 20th I signed up for the triple play service for 59.99 with 2 year agreement with 4 tvs being installed with equipment, home phone service and internet/wifi. On May 25th I realized that I needed to change 3 of the boxes on my order to different ones so I called the 1800 verizon number and spoke with a woman agent who said she was able to make the changes and also wanted to verify on my order that I am getting everything that I am entitled to as a new customer to Fios so I told her okay. Never did this incompetent woman tell me that she was changing my ENTIRE ORDER. At the end of the call she said she made the changes to the equipment and gave me a confirmation number for the change.
Today May 26th memorial day, I receive an email from Verizon confirming the changes that they said I made to my ENTIRE PLAN AT 2:46PM. She cancelled out my original order I placed online and switched it to another plan that was much higher at 79.99 with additional services I did not request and the EQUIPMENT WAS NEVER CHANGE, the whole reason for my call. After reading the email and going back to the original email I received after placing my order on May 20th I called Verizon customer service. The woman I spoke to, again incompetent and unsympathetic to the situation couldn't tell me why my order was change. She couldn't tell me anything and was silent the most of the **bleep** time. (Don't these people work for the same company, she should have been able to see exactly what went on in her system.)
When she did speak she said she was reviewing what was different from the last order. I said there is only ONE order that I placed and the only changes that I wanted was for the equipment. She didn't say anything after that. So after almost 10 minutes of silence, I said well at this point are you able to make the necessary changes to change me back to the original plan I signed up for with the correct equipment I needed. She told me NO, plain out.
Are you kidding me! I never authorize the change of my package, only to the equipment and your telling me you can't do nothing about it. The woman showed no type of empathy for the situation, nor apologize on behalf of Verizon and the lady who screwed up my family order. It was like she didn't care and then said If I want to cancel the order she couldn't do that and that I would have to call back tomorrow May 27th and do so. (Shouldn't a customer service agent do whatever they could to KEEP YOU as a customer and not send you to cancel the order...big problem) I haven't been with verizon for many many years and thought I should give you people a try. The way this initial contact with this company has been has truly set the tone of how these people/company will treat me and my family for the next 2 years. This transaction has not been smooth and not somehting that I would rave about to my friends/co workers/community, I will tell them to NOT choose this company. I see now that Verizon customer service agents will add what ever they want to your account that you didn't authorize, tell you lies and not correct anything that they are at fault of.

Customizing Request's contents - Transfer them to a new request

I have created one huge transport request (customizing) with many IMG actitvities or configuration on customizing views.
and it looks some thing like this:
ERSK900262 050   Dneelima     Customizing HR
              ERSK900263   Dneelima     Customizing Task
                  Table Contents
                  View Maintenance: Data
                  IMG Activity Define Savings Plan General D
                  IMG Activity Define Miscellaneous Plan
                  IMG Activity Define Administrative Parameters
                  IMG Activity Define Miscellaneous Plan General
                  IMG Activity Change Screen Modifications
                  IMG Activity Set Up ESS Parameters
And the list goes on.
Question: How can take 2 IMG activities out of the list delete it from this request and add it to anew request.
The idea is now to assign these activities to different transports and release them in different order.
Any inputs ?

Thanks for the reply.
But I am not sure if I am following correctly. I tried to assign, split, merge etc, But it works if you have different tasks within a transport. In my case I have all those "IMG activites" within one task.
I am not able to assign those individual "IMG activity" to another transport request ?
Please suggest if this is possible at all or am I missing something here ?
Thanks again !

Illustrator CS4 and CS3 freeze when saving a PDF as an AI file

I'm trying to pull apart a couple of PDFs into layers to import them into After Effects. I do this all the time and it's a pretty standard thing which I haven't had any trouble with before, but for the last couple of days whenever I try to save the PDF as an AI file, the damn thing freezes - I get the washing machine of death (I'm on Vista), the program goes greyed out and I have to restart it, losing all the changes. I've tried the following, none of which seem to make any difference:
- Saving to a different drive (C as opposed to an external USB drive)
- Trying to open the PDFs in CS3 rather than CS4
- Trying a couple of different PDFs
I can't reinstall Illustrator as I'm not at the office until the new year and don't have the disks. The PDFs are small (300k or so) and so it shouldn't be their size making the machine hang, surely? I've attached a sample. Specs are - dual core Dell M6300 laptop, 2.6GHz, 4GB RAM, Quadro 1600 graphics.
Any ideas would be very gratefully received....

Sorry I haven't replied in a few days (I'm at my parents' house for Christmas, so not the ideal place to sort out Illustrator problems )
This is REALLY weird. I was wondering whether Illustrator would be able to save PDFs (which are after all basically the same thing as AI files for this purpose) to get around the problem that way. I tried: it saved the thing fine. Next I tried saving what I'd just saved as a PDF, as an AI file. It saved it in a flash without any problems. (This is with the trashed prefs file - I haven't tried reinstating it, yet.) I've just loaded up a 14Mb AI file, and saved it again without trouble.
There's only one thing I can think of that has been changed since the last time I tried this, when Illustrator wasn't working. This is something which was definitely affecting Word 2007: I've deleted a couple of network printers that were on nonexistent IP addresses. (Word wouldn't load anything, even the most basic of docs - it just froze; washing machine of death, grey screen, etc.) The default printer is thus now a Canon USB thing, which isn't plugged in either, but which Windows seems happy to carry on without. Word seemed unable to continue with the network printers installed, as presumably it was trying to contact them and failing. Could Illustrator have been falling into the same trap??
Anyway, whatever the problem, it seems to be working OK now. Thanks both and hope you have a merry Christmas and New Year period.
Best

My brand new mac book pro battery won't charge to 100% it only charges to 99%. What's wrong with it ad how do I fix it?

My new MacBook pro won't charge to 100% battery it will only charge to 99%. Please help!

Nothing is wrong, that is normal. If you let it drop below 93%, it will recharge back to 100%. It is a feature to prolong the life of the battery.

Problem with saving an Ai file to PDF in Illustrator CS4 Professional

Hello guys, I have an interesting problem. The machine has Windows Vista Enterprise with the latest updates and office 2007 Pro+. The version of adobe installed is Adobe CS4 Professional, in which has the Illustrator and Acrobat updated to the latest patches. This has happened to the user over the weekend; all of the sudden when she tries to save an Ai file to PDF, it hangs not even bringing up the dialog box. However, in all the other Adobe programs are able to save it as a PDF. Now I am able to print from Illustrator into Acrobat, but it doesn't save it to a full sized "page". I tried saving any Ai file to a different file and then try to save as a PDF....no dice. This is the second time around where this has happened. Now here is the kicker, since I'm an admin it will work like a charm under my login; the user is a restricted user (no admin rights). I also changed the default printer for her, to a local printer.. (read somewhere about that) no dice. Any help would obviously be appreciated. THX

Yup, that could also be possible. Had a similar problem where the IE add-in for Adobe Reader did not work anymore. And I had to get a patch from MS for office. And it was only available by request only.

I use a mac pro and have photos saved in Iphoto. I have burned a disk and want to send to a friend who is a PC user and only has picassa. Will she be able to open and edit the photos in picassa?

Thanks. That's a great relief. Do you know if the photos will be correctly formated or will they change in Picassa?

HT4191 I don't have an Outlook account and all of my notes are saved to my yahoo/gmail account. How can I transfer them to my new iPhone?

I just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a 5 and am trying to transfer the information right now. I can't sync my notes at all though. They're all set up under my yahoo/gmail accounts, but iTunes is only giving me the option to sync with Outlook. My 4 also won't let me use iCloud to sync them. I just tried setting one up but it won't let me. My 4 also has no service and I am just using my wifi for it. What can I do?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't unless (assuming you have the Apple TV 1) you remove the drive and connect it to a computer.

I have iTunes on my old desktop computer. I have lots of purchased material in memory plus music that I have copied from my cds. I want to transfer everything to my newer laptop with an external hard drive backup. How do I do this?
