Plug-ins/No Filters Folder

Trying to load plug-ins in CS6, on a Mac, but there is no filters file under the Plug-ins folder.  It is completely vacant except for a Panels folder.  Did the filters folder move to somewhere else?

I recommend, if you're copying your own plug-ins from whatever sources into your plug-ins folder (vs. using an installer), that you create subfolders that are plainly named.  That way you'll know what they are at some time in the future instead of trying to figure it out from some short, cryptic name.
As an example, from my own system:
Directory of C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Plug-ins

  • LR 3.3 ignores plug-ins in Modules folder on Mac

    Hello,
    I put my plug-in in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules as its described in docs but Lightroom ignores it. Actually it ignores any plug-ins in this folder. I can add a plug-in from this folder manually and it'll work but i need LR to do this automatically. Can i do anything to help LR recognize my plug-in or may be i need to put my plug-in to some other place?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    We are looking for a developer who is familliar with developing a plugin for Lightroom 3.
    We know the SDK & API for Lightroom is a bit unique, and we want to work with someone who either has developed for Lightroom already, or someone very familiar with the process.
    We would like a plug in for Lightroom 3 that creates web photo galleries.  We are not looking for something too difficult!  In fact, many plugins already exist, but none do exactly what we need.  So, we need a custom one designed for us.
    The plug in should look like and work like the photo gallery plug ins already available for Lightroom, such as the standard HTML web galleries Lightroom 3 has standard, as well as the Airtight Simpleviewer plugin.  Both of these have their advantages and disadvantages.  But both are fairly flexible in what they offer, and the user can make galleries that look and behave in many ways.
    Our plug in needs to avoid flash all together.  We like J Query code such as this one:
    http://www.twospy.com/galleriffic/example-2.html
    The galleries should have a download option that lets the viewer download a low res, med res, or high res file.
    The galleries need a search field where users can search for key words or metadata.
    This is the basic idea.  We would like to develop this project right away.  Please contact us.
    Thank you,

  • Why Adobe does not say that some plug-ins and filters on a 64-bit Apple computers do not work?

    I called assistance, and the only proposal that I have done was to make new installations, or create a new user.
    Then I found this article on the web!
    ..."Unfortunately, to accommodate the new programming code that allows for 64-bit processing, some plug-ins and filters—the built-in
    Variations and Lighting Effects, for example—only work in 32-bit mode, and that surely will disappoint some users. Moreover, most t
    hird-party plug-ins too will work only in 32-bit mode, until they are updated. Thankfully, it’s easy (though not especially convenie
    nt) to switch between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the program; just select the application icon, choose File->Get Info, turn o
    n the 32-bit option, and relaunch Photoshop."
    It is not a system so simple for a person working with photoshop files very large (Over 6/7 GB). You lose several minutes of time.
    The tests carried out then the difference in performance from 64 to 32 Bit is 40-50% faster in 64 bit mode. This is also why the 64-bit version you can assign more memory.
    Someone from Adobe can answer?
    Then, to conclude.
    But the icons of some new palette of photoshop could not make it more beautiful and not ugly and unpleasant?
    Mario

    You not hearing it doesn’t mean Adobe didn’t say it.

  • Cannot find "Plug-ins" folder for Photoshop CS6 on my Mac.

    I cannot find ”Plug-ins" folder for Photoshop CS6 on my Mac. Path suppose to be Macintosh HD > Applications 
> Adobe Photoshop CS6 > Plug-Ins but that folder is missing. Any suggestion on how to find it?

    Thank you Hans,
    If I understand it correctly, way to install extensions/plugins on Mac is
    following
    "Quit Photoshop, then copy the desired plug-ins (or extensions) to the
    following locations:
    Mac OS:
       - Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC/Plug-ins folder
       - Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Plug-ins folder"
    In my case it would be the last path, as I have CS6.
    However, my problem is that Plug-ins folder is missing

  • CS4 plug-ins, 3rd party plug-ins and filter problems

    1- What happened to all the filters available in CS3? They were a good thing. Why does Adobe kill off what's already working well and looking good? For instance, where's the Distort>Diffuse???
    2- Same thing with PS plug-ins and third party plug-ins. They're all gone, now that I've "upgraded." (A term I use with disgust.) I paid too much money for all the aggravation I've been experiencing with these three issues.
    But I digress: I dragged plug-ins to the folder, but they still don't show up.
    Thank you.......
    iMac 23" 2.16 GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo 3 GB RAM OS 10.5.5 ACR5.2
    PS: Why does Adobe take away what finally works smoothly? Why offer a feature, and then take it back 18 months later with the next version? I'll sleep better at night if I can just understand how it helps the users to have the useful deleted.

    First of all, make sure you have not moved the application icon or the application folder from the default install location, and that you have not created subfolders there in a misguided attempt to "organize" things.
    Secondly, please tell us what you upgraded from. If you had been running some 3rd party plugins that are not written for Universal Binary, they may not run in a newer OS or a newer machine.
    Third, please see the documentation or Adobe Photoshop's Principal Program Manager John Nack's blog for the stuff that
    was taken out in CS4:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2008/10/where_did_extra.html
    Filter > Distort > Diffuse Glow is right there where it's always been. If you don't see it, you're either in 16 bits or have a bad install.

  • Suggestions for third party plug-ins

    I’m looking into purchasing some third party filters soon. I’m into special events like anniversaries, weddings, High School events like sports seasons, musicals, etc.
    What are the third party plug-ins or filters that you would recommend?
    Hank Kearns

    For what purpose?
    In other words, what effects are you trying to make?
    I’m slowly learning more about Final Cut Pro and editing. I do not have any specific need right now. Perhaps I should have asked what are the effects that the more experienced users have found useful.
    Here is an example of a effect produced by chv that was posted on Ken Stone’s Discussion List. The contributor I believe is the creator of the plug-in.
    <http://www.chv-plugins.com/tmp/Ken-3D-Cube-Demo.mov>
    Right now I do not have a need for something like that, but it would be nice to have to potential of creating something like this when needed.

  • Ai CS6 continues to not work- additional problem with plug-ins.

    These messages came up while trying to open these two files. They open after clicking OK, but the applicaion bar is completley blank and with no tools showing.

    Watch Illustrator as it boots to see of if initialzing plug ins is showing, or if it acts as if shift is being held down and boots really quick (most your keys commands would not work then).
    Applications >> utilities >> disk Utility >> repair Permissions.
    Reset your prefs: immediately after booting Ilustrator, hold down 3 keys: shift, command, opt
    Go to applications >> Illustrator 6 >> Plug ins >> Illustrator Filters  (is offset path there?) if not you may have something wrong with your install and many of your plug ins may be missing. The plug ins mentioned are mostly in 3 of the folders.
    Check that your plug ins don't say somehting liek size is 0k. Here is the info for my plug in.

  • Windows users heads-up: If you installed plug-ins under \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightro

    The SDK documentation has always recommended that you install plug-ins in the App Data folder:
    In Windows XP, "C:\Documents and Users\username\Application
    Data\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules"
    In Windows Vista, "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules"
    If you've followed this advice, you can stop reading this message. Nothing will change for you.
    It has always been possible, though not documented or recommended, to install plug-ins in the folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Modules\".
    When we release the final of version 2.3, this path will be changing to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.3\Modules\" and we will not be moving files from the old location to the new.
    You will either need to move those files manually, or (better yet) move them to the App Data folder instead.
    Mac users: We're not planning any change to the install paths on the Mac for 2.3, but this is a good opportunity for you to verify that you are installing your plug-ins in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules, as recommended, and not inside the Lightroom package in the /Applications folder.

    Hi,
    It seems that the suggested location is not working with 2.3RC on Windows XP SP2:

    Is this known issues, or should I suspect faulty Windows installation?

  • Photoshop no longer recognizes plug-ins, even native ones

    I have a Intel based Mac running OS 10.6.8 I have both Photoshop CS5 and CS3 installed. I run CS3 for the purpose of occasionally using filters that have not been updated for CS5. But recently both CS5 and CS3 stopped recognizing all filters including native ones. I can see the plug-ins in the preferences lists and they do not show up in the error or unloaded plug-ins part of the list. I assume what ever happened must be in some part of the system that effects both applications.
    I have cleaned out as many pref files as I can locate, did a full uninstall of o programs and re-installed only CS5 but it still does not see nay plug-ins or filters.
    Any ideas would be appreciated!

  • Waves plug-ins

    Sorry, this is a question. I'm new to this forum....
    When I open FCE all of my waves plug ins get loaded. This takes around 5 minutes and I also get netshell error messages with two of the plug ins.
    Somebody else posted the same problem and was advised to move the plug-ins to another folder. I imagine that, like me. he needs the plug-ins for Pro Tools so this is not an option.
    Can anyone please advise another solution?
    By the way if I try to apply effects in soundtrack, I also get netshell errors and am unable to load soundtrack effects. I guess the problems are related.

    I'm new to your Form but have the same issues with Waves plugins loading into FCE when I start it up. I emailed Waves and they rersonded with the solution to our problem. Waves doesn't support Final Cut Pro or Express.
    This is what they said to do.
    Go to:HD>Library>Audio>Plug-ins>Components> remove any Waveshell files that you may find there. This will allow FCP or FCE to launch withoput Waves Plug-ins.
    If you use Waves in Logic, Peak or Spark you will need to place the Waveshells back in the 'Components' folder before launching the application.
    I use Motu Digital Performer 4.5 and it works without repacing the Waveshells back in the folder. This is a fix for your problem. Good luck. Bob

  • Plug-Ins folder paths

    How do people go about installing their plugins on different languages? It seems like Adobe is localizing the name of the Plug-Ins folder depdending on the language the system is installed on or maybe it's their localized installers doing it. In any case, i need to find out the correct paths for these languages:
    English
    French
    German
    Italian
    Spanish
    Japanses
    Simplified Chinese
    Does anyone know where i can find these?
    thx

    This gets asked a lot, so perhaps folks can post information for the languages they know about.
    A German customer of mine reported that the plug-ins directory for CS2 on his Windows XP system is
    AdobeCS2\Zusatzmodule
    And the following subdirectories are localized as follows
    "Effects" = "Effekte"
    "File Formats" = "Dateiformat"
    "Filters" = "Filter"
    "Import-Export" = "Importieren-Exportieren"
    I'd like to know the equivalents for French systems.

  • Where is the FC Studio plug ins folder?

    Hi,
    Basic question here. I am trying to install a few new noise reduction filters in Final Cut since Compressor is quickly dying before my eyes!
    Where in the world is the Final Cut Studio plug ins folder? It used to be Library - App Support - Final Cut Pro - Plug Ins, but in the new Final Cut Studio world, it is in a different spot.
    Does anyone know where it is? Thanks!

    Quick tip:
    Library/somewhere/somewhere else -is always the main Library directory at the top level of your hard drive.
    ˜/Library or, your name/Library is the directory specific to your user space.
    * This is information is for your disambiguation. We hope that you feel disambiguated.

  • Adding Plug ins/Filters to Elements 9

    I have a filter that I want to install into the Elements program.  Every time I attempt to put the new filter into the menu, it says it has been completed but I am unable to see the filter. Here are the steps I have done.
    The downloaded files are  .zip. Double click on the zip file to extract the installers.
    Double click on the extracted  exe to start the installer.
    Use the Browse button to aim the  files at the Program Files/Adobe/ Photoshop  Elements 9/Plug-ins/Filters directory.
    After installation open  Photoshop.[Photoshop only polls the Filters directory on start up. If you added  the filters while Photoshop was up, it wouldn't see the new filter]. Now open an  RGB file and look for your filter in the Filters Menu under the name of the new filter.
    Any ideas?

    Problems with mscv80.dll can be difficult to solve because in Vista and Win7 the DLL is considered a "System" file and access to it is tightly controlled.  The easiest thing is to let Win7 do the repair by running the System File Check utility:
    Close all programs.
    Go to your "Start" menu, click on "All Programs", select the "Accessories" folder, and right-click on "Command Prompt".
    Choose "Run as Administrator" from its context menu.
    Enter the Administrator's password when prompted, to open a command prompt window with elevated privileges.
    Type the following at the command prompt and hit Enter:
              sfc /scannow
    The SFC utility will tell you it's checking the system files and that the process will take some time.  Be patient.  When it's finished, it will tell you whether it found and fixed any files.  N.B.:  Even if the utility reports that it found nothing to repair, it really did, so close the command prompt and reboot your computer.
