Is there no way to change the default setting for the save as directory

I been searching but running into a dead end, no answer.
Thx
Russ

Will someone, preferably from Adobe, PLEASE give a straight answer to this question. It is such an easy question and the answers seem to be bending over backwards to avoid it.
The question is: What must a Reader user do to change the directory to which Reader, by default, points when instructed to save a file?
The current default is the Windows "My Documents" directory. The goal is any directory of the user's choice.
The question does not ask how to modify or attach add-ons to Windows. It is not how to add icons to Windows save dialogs. It is simply how to adjust Reader to specify a different default save-to directory. Maybe it's a line in an INI file or other configuration file. Maybe it's a registry key. But it must be something, because Reader somehow knows how to point to "My Documents." How may the user change it?
Thank you.

  • How can you change the default setting for the alarm for new events?

    When I create a new Event, it will create an alarm that will activate 15 minutes before the event. I'd like to change the settings so the default setting would be that when I create a new event it will activate 1 day before the actual event. Is it possible to change this? Thanks.

    Greetings, David.
    alarm...activate 1 day before the actual event. Is it possible to change this?
    Sure.
    _Go to iCal > Preferences > General >"Add a default alarm to all new events and invitations"
    _Change the current value from 15 minutes to whatever minute value you like (1440 for 24 hours).
    _Of course this will only affect NEW events. Not those already created.
    _Close the window and your done.
    Hope that helps.

  • I am needing to set the DEFAULT Print to be ACTUAL SIZE not FIT.  I need this to be the DEFAULT SETTING for the program.

    I have a couple users using Acrobat XI Pro and when they print a PDF it is shrunk to 96.08%.  I need to find a way to set the DEFAULT Setting to be Actual Size.  We are a Law Firm and the Document Numbering is being cut off from the docs due to the Shrinking.
    Has anyone had any experience in changing the DEFAULT settings of the Print Window? Can you please pass along any knowledge on how to accomplish this?  Thanks for your time and replies.

    Acrobat and Reader's Fit and Scale functions are "sticky".
    From the Print Dialog > Page Size & Handling
    Any option you choose will remain active for all subsequent documents.
    (Some features remain active until the program is quit/restarted)
    Choose Actual Size
    Do not change the selection, it will retain the setting.

  • HT204135 My printer always defaults to "Scale = 150%" and prints oversized. I always have to set the scale back to "100%". Is there any way to change this default setting?

    Hi
    My osX Lion loaded iMac always prints with a default "scale" of "150%" and consequently won't print anything on a single page. I always have to go into "Printer Settings" and change it to "100%" to print properly. Is there any way to set this up to default at "100%"?
    Thanks!

    Hi,  just a note that might help.  I notice in baltwo's screen shot of the print dialog, that the Preset titled "Plain paper, best" is selected.
    anderdan33316, if you have selected a preset, and that preset was created with the "Scale" set to "150%".  I suspect your issue is related to this.
    for a possible solution,
    1. in Safari, open the Print dialog (by cmd-p, or choosing "Print..." from the File menu, either way works).
      2. in the dialog, manually set the Scale to 100%
      3. in the "Presets:" pull-down menu, select "Save Current Settings as Preset..."
      4. enter a label that is meaningful to you, such as "Standard", "Basic", "Default" - it can be modified later
      5. print that page from that dialog, and the customized Preset will be one of your choices until you decide to delete it.
    hope this helps,

    With your playhead over the clip in the timeline and that V track's 'track selector' as the only one active...hit the 'f' key.
    This will load the original clip into the viewer at the matching point of the frame in the timeline.

  • How do I change the default locations for the iTunes music and iPhone back-up folders?

    My computer's hard drive is partitioned, with one partition having all of the Windows system files, and the other having all of my documents, music, videos, etc.  When I installed iTunes, it automatically created its music and iPhone folders on the Windows partition.  I've been able to change the default save folders for other programs to the second partition, but I'm having troubles finding this option in iTunes (I even went back and re-installed it to see if I could find it that way, but no dice).  Is there a way to change the default folders for the iTunes library and iPhone files?  It takes up A LOT of space on my Windows partition, so it would be very great to get that moved over.
    Thanks!

    You can't selectively move individual folders withing the iTunes  folder, but you can move the entire folder to, say, an external dive. To delink the iTunes application to the new library location:
    Open iTunes while holding down the Option key (Mac) or Shift key (Windows).
    In the resulting dialog, click the Choose Library button.
    Select the iTunes folder you moved to the external hard drive.
    Click Choose (Mac OS X) or Open (Windows) and then choose the iTunes Library file inside .

  • How do you change the default setting in the motions tab?

    Greetings!
    We have two macs in our editing suite. Both are running FCP studio 2. One of the macs has a default setting for the drop shadow of 2 in the motion tab. The other mac has the default setting of 10. How can I change the default settings (not as a favorite) so that when I open a clip in the viewer the default setting will always be my preference (1.5) instead of the standard 10. I also want to change the opacity to 90% as the default.
    Thanks for your help.

    Below is a step-by-step process for changing the default font in CS6, Illustrator, Mac, Mountain Lion, 10.8.2.
    There are several additiional steps needed to make this work.
    Please feel free to us this for other inquiries.
    To Change Default Font in CS6-Ai-Mac-Mountain Lion, 10.8.2
    On desktop menu bar, hold down Option key, go to GO, pull down to Library.
    Open Application Support, ~ Adobe, ~ Adobe Illustrator CS6, ~ en_us ~ New Document Profiles
    Six choices appear (you can change each that you use, one at a time)
    Example: Double click Basic RGB.ai
    A Basic RGB.ai blank document window opens
    In Menu Bar, go to Window ~ Type ~ Character Styles
    A sub-window opens with (Normal Character Style) highlighted in Blue
    Double click the highlighted name and another sub-window opens
    In left of this window, choose Basic Character Formats
    Change to desired Font Family, Font Style, Size, etc.
    Click OK when finished, widow disappears to reveal Character Styles sub-window
    Click anywhere on the blank document in order to get option to Save
    Save the document
    Close Character Styles sub-window
    Quit Illustrator
    Re-launch Illustrator CS6 ~ New document … check Font tool to confirm changed default font
    Hope this works for other "Lost Adobe Souls" like myself.

  • How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word

    How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word, I download forms from the Canadian government and they use RTF as a standard, they are supposed to open as MS Word documents (Yes I have Office for MAC 2011) but when download the document it goes to TextEdit which messes up the form format. I can down load it right click and go "open with" MS Word but how can I get the default chnaged to save this step.

    Thanks I knew this, I like Safari as I want to keep everything MAC, but if I use Firefox the documents open in MS Word straight away, I was just curious if there was some setting I could change?
    In Firefox > Preferences, click the Applications tab. If RTF is there, use the pulldown menu in the Action column to pick MS Word. If RTF is not there, there are instructions here for how to add file types.

  • Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

    I have a loop (Modern Guitar Rock 04), which I've extended out so it repeats four times. I select the Fade Tool and X-Fade for drag. I then drag just in front of the loop and onto it, which creates a fade. However, this also creates fades at the beginning of the repeating loops. Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

    The loop function always repeats the same region so of course the fade is also copied. So option+drag the original region to make a (non clone) copy, fade the first region and loop the second one (which you just copied).

    As the previous thread was closed without actual resolution - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/941350?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s
    I managed to solve this on my end by just reinstalling firefox using the localisation of the default dictionary language i wanted from here - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    A bit of a shame that the main download page doesnt select the geographically relevant localisation for you and even more so that changing the default language for the in built spell checker is so kak. oh well.
