Where are the desktop & screensaver files stored?

One of my apples is running Mac OS 10.5.8. In its choice of desktop scene from "Nature", there is a beautiful "Golden Palace." I like the picture very much and want to use it for other Apple computer, which do not have the picture. Where can I locate the picture and copy it to other Mac computers?
Thank you very much.

Where Are The Custom Preset Files Stored?

I deleted FCS 2 before installing FCS 3 and unfortunately all of my custom presets in Compressor were lost.
I have got Time Machine with the old Compressor but I don't know where the old preset files are stored.
Ideally I would like to copy them to the new version as re-writing them will be a pain, assuming I can still remember what they were!

Ian,
Now aren't you glad you went to the trouble of setting up Time Machine?

Where are the auto recovery files stored for Visio 2010?

I have auto recovery set for every 5 minutes. I have been working on a file that has been saved several times a day. Today when just moving a shape Viso 2010 crashed after I had been working on the file for over 2 hours. Auto recovery popped
up every 5 minutes indicating it was saving the file. After the crash the ony file I could find was the file as it was when I first opened it this AM. None of the work done today was saved.
Did auto recovery completely fail? Where can I look for the auto recovery file?
I have not done a reboot because I am afraid that if the file exits it will be gone for sure if I reboot. Any suggestions are welcome.
There must be a temp file or something that I can look for but not sure what the extension would be or the location.
Hopefully someone here can help.
thanks,
greg

How do I know? You state the the auto-save file extension is .vxd - that's the Visio document XML format.
You can change this in File -> Options -> Save
As for the crashes, are there any messages when a crash occurs?
Check that the video drivers you have are the latest, try a different screen resolution to see if that changes anything and turn off or change any screen accelerators.
-- Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd. http://www.sandrila.co.uk/ Engineering and software shapes for Visio.
My mistake - the file format is .vsd - standard visio format
Here is the info from the event viewer for the specific crash that caused me temporary pain.

Where are the JSP Java Files stored in WL8?

Hi there,
          i'm looking for the .java-Files generated from the .jsp-File. I have already set the property "JSPKeep Generated".
          Thanks for your help
          cheers immo

I don't know if this varies by WLS version, and you haven't specified which version you are using, but in my WLS 8.1SP2 distribution, they are stored at:
          c:/bea/user_projects/domains/<domain>/<server>/.wlnotdelete/extract/.../jsp_servlet/.../*.java

Where are the iPhone backup files stored on a PC?

I recently downloaded the new iOS software to my phone....when I went to restore from my last backup -- my computer shut down half way through and everytime I've tried since, it won't work. I think my home computer has a virus that is causing this so I was hoping I could copy the backup file and load it into my iTunes on my work computer and restore my phone at work? Any idea how to do that or if it will work? I had over 1,000 pictures and videos that I really don't want to lose....(yes yes I know I learned my lesson to download them....but they are of my kids and I really don't want to lose them!)

The backup files are in the same place on windows 8, but the folder is hidden by default. You can view it by pressing Windows + R, then pasting in "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\USERS\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup"
Or you can tell Windows to show hidden files and folders. In Explorer go to View menu -> Options button -> View tab and then check "Show hidden files, folders and drives". Then you can browse to the folder as normal. This will make all hidden files and folders visible, but you can set the option back if you don't like it.
I hope that helps!

Where are SAPI 5 voice files stored in OS X?

Where are SAPI 5 voice files stored in OS X? I'd like to add others from commercial sites such as Ivona.com. Thoughts?

MacPro running Maverick 10.9.5

Hi,
I believe the folder is still in the same place, but it seems that the Home/Library folder is hidden (i.e. you cannot see a Library folder at all it if you go to Home). At least I can't
Try a search in Finder. Search for "mail" under "Library" (and select Kind > Folder). This should bring up a list of results from which you can get to the Mail folder. Hope that helps!
Best,
Pablo

Just where ARE the site definition files?

I've just received CS4. I want to move it to my more powerful laptop when I install it. I know how to do that and I can move site files, but where are the site definition files? I really don't want to have to set up each site from scratch. Is there one (or more) files that are the name, url, location, id, password etc for each of the (many) sites in CS3?
don Carlos

To import/export site definitions (not site files):
On the old computer:
Site > Manage Sites
Shift click to highlight all site names
Export..
Same procedure on new computer then Import..

I have an iMac, where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?

I have an iMac, where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?
My OSX is 10.10.1

Hi
If you are using standard system or HP drivers, than the jobs contents are not saved at all.
You can see the list of completed jobs per printer via this URL: http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/
If you want to save a print job, you can do it in the print dialog, by selecting an action prom "PDF" popup.
It allows to save a job (prior or instead to printing it) as PDF or PostScript.

HT4867 Now that I've switched to ICloud where are the mailboxes that were stored on my Mac?

Now that I've switched to ICloud where are the mailboxes that were stored on my Mac?

On your mac, mailboxes are listed under one of several categories. Some are "on my mac" and others are in "icloud". Those emails in mailboxes "on my mac" are strictly local, they do not connect with iCloud. As Julian points out, all mailboxes on your mac are still there. They will not be on your other devices.

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

Define "the Aperture files".
Read this concise guide.
The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals". Your Originals are never altered. What went in is what comes out.
Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file. This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture. There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image. Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved. These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original. They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture. "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing". The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple: create them by exporting. Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom. Note that I say "transitioning". You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information. Adobe provides a tool and some instructions. I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database. Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager: that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.
HTH,
Kirby.

Where is the iPhone backup file stored which is produced during synching?

Background: I had a HD crash and replacement: this created problems with the iPhone apps in iTunes (i.e. they "disappeared" from the Applications tab in iTunes.
Question: why can't I restore the iPhone to the last backup that is automatically made when you sync? Does anyone know where that backup file is located and how to invoke it?
Thanks and cheers,
Veit

Allan, I am puzzled and hope that you can help and clarify:
I did try the "Restore the iPhone to its Factory Settings" approach and did transfer the iTunes folder (from before the crash) through Time Machine to the new HD. When I connect the iPhone to the computer and start iTunes there, I am informed that an iphone has previously synced with this computer and am asked whether I want to set up a new iPhone or "Restore from the backup of iPhone". BUT, the Last Synched info states that the last sync was TODAY, and NOT as of before the crash (when the Apps and their Settings were OK, i.e. to what I would like to restore). Frustration galore.
This begs the question: 1.) where on the computer is the last backup stored, and can that be replaced by using an earlier version found on the Time Machine? But then I think I understand you saying that the backup process of the iPhone does NOT contain the Settings and Data related with each third party application, only the app itself; or did I misunderstand you.
Hence question 2.) Where are the data and settings of the apps stored: in the Backup that's created when syncing (and apparently only a single, i.e. the last backup is kept, and that in my case is useless), or in the Mobile Applications folder under iTunes, which can be restored.
And finally 3.) you state: cancel the backup when you connect the iphone to the computer running iTunes. When I click on the x next to where it says that the iPhone is being backed up, it cancels the whole sync process, not only the backup process.
Sorry to bother you so much, but I'd really hate to loose all the data and settings of the ninety or so Apps which I am using. Again, many thanks in advance for any clarifications.
Cheers,
Veit

Where are the tutorial exercise files?

Where are the exercise files referred to in the photoshop tutorials?

Most of the video tutorials on AdobeTV won't have excercise files to go along with the video. If they do, they'll be listed under "Show More Details" in the About This Episode section.
There are a few resources you can use if you'd like to follow tutorials with exercise files to go along with the steps.
Lynda.com is a great resource for learning Photoshop. To have full access to the learning tools you have to buy a subscription, but many of their lessons have accompanying exercise files.
http://blog.fitnyc.edu/technology/2010/11/11/exercise-files-for-lyndacom/
You might also look into Level Up for Photoshop. It's a plugin that you download and open in Photoshop that guides you through step-by-step tutorials within the actual program. All of the exercise files for Level Up are included when you download the plugin.
Hope this helps! Good luck
