Can't save to drive other than C

I'm trying to save a file to a folder on my F drive with this code (CS3):
docRef.saveAs(new File("/F/temp/TargaTest.tga",tgaSaveOptions,false));
and I get this error:
Error 8800: General Photoshop error occured. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. - Could not save as "C:\F\temp\TargaTest.tag" because the file could not be found.
Notice how it stuck the C: at the front? Why is that happening? The only way I can get it to save at all is to not specify a drive. With "/temp/TargaTest.tga", the file gets saved in C:/temp (but as a .psd instead of .tga - any thoughts on that?).
I get the same results if I set the script up to let me navigate to a folder and then try it this way:
docRef.saveAs(new File(outputFolder +"/" + "TargaTest.tga",tgaSaveOptions,false));
- it will still add the C: at the front. Grrr..

I think the problem is the way you are creating the file object. Try
docRef.saveAs(new File("/F/temp/TargaTest.tga"),tgaSaveOptions,false);

  • In itunes, can i save my music on another hard drive other than C?

    i have the program installed on my computer, i would like the music to be saved on another hard drive other than C, is there a way to do that within itunes?

    You can have multiple libraries, and switch between them using the shift-start-iTunes method. Normally a single library is all that is required. Each library connects to a single designated media folder, however you can import content from other locations if you choose. See Make a split library portable for reasons why this may not be the best approach. If you want to access the "same" library on more than one machine then you need to clone the library files as well as media.

  • How can I install to a drive other than C?

    I installed the CS6 Master Collection trial version. During the installation, I specified a destination folder on my D: drive (C: is a small SSD drive meant to hold only Windows).
    For the 32-bit versions of the programs, the shortcuts created in the Start Menu point to the D: location I specified during installation, but clicking on them gets me a "file not found" error, because the actual programs were placed on the C: drive. They work if I copy the installed Adobe folder and its full contents over to the appropriate D: location.
    The 64-bit versions are a different mess: Unlike with the 32-bit versions, the installer placed the 64-bit versions of the programs in the specified D: drive folder, but when I attempt to start the programs, I get the "Configuration Error: Please uninstall and reinstall the program; Error: 1" message. Presumably this is because some of the configuration files or settings the programs are looking for are actually pointing to locations on the C: drive, where the installer put them despite my directions. But I have no idea which files or settings they are, or how to find them.
    How can I fix these configuration errors and get the 64-bit versions working?
    If anyone from Adobe sees this, can you please fix the installer so that it installs the ENTIRE package where I specified, and that all the various pieces installed know where the rest of the pieces are in a non-C drive installation?
    My system:
    Windows 7 SP1
    Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM
    C drive: 60GB SSD (Windows system files)
    D drive: 1TB HDD (All other programs and files, including my Windows User folders)

    Yes, I have redirected my User folder to the D: drive.
    I know that some shared components must reside on the C: drive; that's fine. I just don't have room for the entire installation on there.
    The real issue here is that, when a drive other than C: is selected as the destination, the CS6 package installs into a broken state every time, out of the gate, on my system. Some components get installed to D: and some to C:, but the various components of the programs seem confused about what exists where, as shown below:
    I select a folder on D: as the destination folder for the install, and here is what I get:
    64-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the D: drive as specified, but attempting to start them results in a configuration error message stating that the program must be uninstalled and reinstalled, and lists "Error code: 1".
    32-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the C: drive against what I specified. The shortcuts installed in the Start menu for the 32-bit versions point to the locations where these program files SHOULD be, on the D: drive. If the Adobe folder containing the program files is copied over to the correct location on D:, these programs function normally with no errors.
    I have the 32-bit versions working by copying the program files from C: to D:. I just want to get the 64-bit versions working as well.
    Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated; I'm really looking forward to testing the CS6 suite on my system!

  • Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Hello there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
    When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
    If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
    Thanks!

  • How can I install Adobe Reader 11 to a drive other than C:\?

    I downloaded Reader 11, but at no point during the installation process am I prompted for an installation location.  How can I install this to a drive other than the C:\?  I keep my C:\ and data storage drive separate so in the event the OS crashes I won't lose my data.  I have limited storage capacity since I'm on a laptop so I didn't make my C:\ very large, so that I would have more room for my D:\.  Any suggestions?
    Sincerely,
                    LT Gannon

    having data on a different drive is a good idea.  installing programs on a drive different from you os containing drive is generally not a good idea.  but if you have the expertise and are sure of what you're doing:
    mac:  ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/mac/11.x/11.0.00/misc/
    win:  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5515

  • Can you install CS5 anywhere other than the C Drive?

    I already have CS5 successfully installed on my computer and it works perfectly.
    The problem I have is that I'm running out of space on my C drive. (Currently 864 MB Free of 64.2 GB).
    After a quick look at the stuff I have on this drive, it seem's to make sense to me to move Photoshop to a different drive, and regain over 10 GB of space back instantly.  I already have a dedicated Photoshop drive on my computer (H:) which contains all my Fonts, Actions, Brushes etc. It would be awesome if I could install it there instead.
    However, where computers are concerned, I know that nothing is ever as simple as it seem's.
    Could someone let me know what sort of problem's I could expect from doing this, or even if it is possible to do.
    Just out of interest, I started the CS5 installer earlier today whilst still having Photoshop installed just to see if it was something it would let me do. (I have no intention of uninstalling Photoshop from my C drive until I know if it's doable).
    As you can see from the image above it shows that I already have Photoshop installed and it shows the location (Highlighted for you in Yellow).
    I have tried to change the drive letter to H: but I cannot change the text within that box.  I was wondering if that location only relates to the already existing copy of Photoshop. And therefore I would need to uninstall the existing copy before I can change this. Or will that location always be C:\Program Files\Adobe regardless.
    In short, Is it possible to install CS5 to a drive other than C: without there being any problems?
    Also is it possible to install 2 copies of CS5 onto 2 different drives? So I can test the new one before finally getting rid of the old one.
    Any help or advice will be gratefully received.

    You would, of course, have to uninstall the current copy before installing Photoshop in a different place.
    You can only install one copy of the same version at one time on the same PC.
    You're not going to be able to install it in another place just to see if all went well before uninstalling it from drive C:.
    And yes, choosing an alternate drive and location into that field with the little folder icon during an install will allow you to install Photoshop on another drive.  That allows you to keep the better part of a gigabyte of software off the C: drive.
    Keep in mind that there are a number of things (e.g., Adobe common software) that will still and only install on drive C: however, and there's nothing you can do to change those locations.

  • Can CC apps be downloaded to, and run from, a hard drive other than the OS drive?

    as far as the memory, i'll figure that   one out next
    is overclocking memory that easy ?
    actually if i could ask another question:

    and 16gb DDR3 1600Mhz 9-9-9-24 memory
    what are stable results to expect for an oc'ed cpu
    and memory running at 1600? 
    would oc'ing the cpu be worth the extra 'wear and tear'?
    i'm editing avchd .mts files
    (most threads state that avchd is cpu intensive)
    so far i'm very happy with cs5
    again, i more trust answers from within this forum
    than googling stuff and checking reviews, what not

  • How do I install DW CS6 in PC drive other than C:?

    How can I install DW CS6 in PC drive other than C:? I have "only" 6GB of space left in C:, and got an error message when I tried to put the Adobe Installer into another drive.

    Thanks, Mylenium...
    It's not about the cost of a new drive. I've already added 2TB over the past couple of years, and partitioned thim into higher drive letters. Most programs let me install them into those drives and still save enough in C: to be happy. But I'm uncomfortable messing with any root stuff. For some dumb reason, I partitioned the original drive (165GB) into 3 virtual drives (c,d,e) and the C: is only 60GB, which had 6GB free.
    I've temporarily offloaded a lot of files and now have 13GB free space. Maybe I'll try the install again tonight, as it takes many hours to download DW CS6. If that doesn't work, maybe I'll have to ditch the 165GB drive and replace with larger. Do you know of a program that will do that exchange without losing anything? The thought of having to reinstall a lot of legacy software that I still use is scary. And I don't have any spare SATA ports left.
    Thanks again...

  • Install Adobe CC apps on a drive other than C?

    Can I install CC apps on a drive other than C? If so, how?

    It does indeed:
    I haven't tried it either, in fact I've always heard that the smart thing is to install in the default location. But the option is there. Keep in mind that a lot of stuff will go to the user folder on the C drive in any case, so you can't keep it entirely off C.
    Normally I'd ask "why?" - but SSDs have brought back space restrictions, at least for a while. I'm getting a little worried for my 240 GB system/apps SSD, which is very nearly full pretty soon.

  • I need to use a drive other than C: to store my bookmarks how do I do this?

    I use software called Deep Freeze that restores my C: drive to it's original state every time I reboot. I need to have my bookmarks stored on a drive other than C: else when I reboot any changes I've made will be lost. Is there a way to do this?

    You can only do that if you create a new profile and locate that new profile on that other drive.

  • Installing Reader 10.1 to a drive OTHER THAN 'C' drive

    Hi. Can anyone provide guidance on how to install Adobe Reader 10.1 to a hard drive other than the C drive?
    At no point during the installation process is the user given the option to select a drive letter. I need space on my C drive and want to install this rather sizeable utility on my E drive.
    My O/S is XP Pro 2002 (SP 3)
    Thanks,
    SD

    I assume you are downloading the Reader using the download manager, aren't you.
    Just download the EXE or the MSI installer from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.0/ and execute e.g. either of the following files:
    AdbeRdr1010_en_US.exe
    AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi
    Then you should be able to change the destination folder...

  • How to install ovi suite to a drive other than C:?...

    how to install ovi suite to a drive other than c:??? my c: drive is almost full with other partitions perfectly free to install it, how do i do that? can i use previous versions of ovi suite to use with my e63? at this point, i'm unable to use ovi suite at all, because there's no room to install it on my c: drive.
    allllllllso there's one more thing, when i originally had tried installing ovi suite on my computer i had more than 1gb free. after installing it i on'ly had 500mb free. i had only intended for it to use a very small amount of space, and since i also use my c: drive for virtual memory i quickly uninstalled it, looking for an option i'd maybe skipped over while installing it the first time. no luck. anyways, when i looked in the add/remove programs control panel the installed size of ovi suite was only 40-50mb. even after uninstalling ovi suite the extra memory space that seemed to all of a sudden taken up by the installation stayed used.
    when looking at the file sizes of everything on my hard drive, (including system files and paging file) there is still a descreprency between the amount of memory used and the size of all files total on the drive. at this point im quite disgusted and disapointed in ovi suite as i'm mostly unable to use it to connect my phone to my computer and i'm also having problems with the CA101 cable as well. i guess i'll have to go check for another cable.
    nokia!!! wake up and fix yo **bleep**!!!!
    anyone have any solutions for the main problem? (installing to a drive other than c? is there support for this option in any of the new beta versions? can that be included in the newest betas? i'm suuuuuure i'm not the only one begging for this option!!!

    Hi ostrenga4, sorry to hear about your experiences.
    When installing Nokia Ovi Suite to PC, Windows makes "system restoration points", which are available to restore operating system to previous condition, if something goes wrong, for example in driver installation.
    You can change install location of Nokia Ovi Suite with following:
    - Download Nokia Ovi Suite install package from Nokia Ovi Suite pages
    - Start Windows Command prompt
    - From Command prompt, navigate to folder containing Nokia Ovi Suite install package, which you downloaded
    - Start Nokia Ovi Suite install package with command line "Nokia_Ovi_Suite_webinstaller.exe /TARGET="D:\TestDir\Test"
    - This results, that Nokia Ovi Suite installer creates folder D:\TestDir\Test (if that doesn't exist) and installs Nokia Ovi Suite there.
    - Unfortunately, Windows Installer still keeps installer cache files and system restoration points in C: drive (or whatever your system drive is)
    As you can see, this is possible, but it is very much recommend to have enough space for installing software into system drive.
    Cheers, Samuli
