When I want to save a PDF attachment to an email, it defaults to a temp folder. How do I change the default folder?

When saving a PDF attachment to an email, I want to change the default folder. How do I do that?

Hi brs texas,
Do I understand correctly that you're downloading a PDF that you received in an email? The default save location is a function of the email client, not of Acrobat or the PDF, so steps to change that folder would vary by email client. Please check the documentation for your email.
Best,

You are attempting to download the picture to your computer not uploading photo to the website if I am understanding you correctly.
To change the download direction, you must do so through your browser's Preferences. If you are using Safari, hopefully, someone who uses Safari will help you and/or post over in their forums. I do not use Safari.

How can we change the default folder icon

hi, is there anyway we can change the default folder icons of OS X?

A quick search in these forums for folder icon brings up many hits, including this one: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3792805

When I change the default folder to save downloads in the options menu, it later reverts to the default folder even though I have made not changes in options. Any ideas? thanks!

In the Options menu I changed the default download location (folder) to a folder I have on my desktop and saved the changes. But this option reverts to the default folder when I turn on my computer and open FF the next day.

Thank you for your response.
I do use CCleaner and just ran it. It did not change the download option folder that I had changed from the default so it appears that this is not cause.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks again!

How do I change the default location for iPhoto media?

On my MacBook Pro, I have a 250 GB solid state drive. More than 140 GB of that space is taken up by images and video in my iPhoto folder. I want to purchase an external hard drive to store my iPhoto media so I can free up space on my Mac's hard drive. I can drag and copy the images/video to the new external hard drive, but in the future how can I change the default location to the new external device? I looked at iPhoto preferences, but see no setting that would re-direct media from my camera. Please help.

Copy the library to the external hard drive. Then launch iPhoto with the option key held down and choose the library on the external hard drive.
Run the external library to make sure it has all of your photos and works as expected. It will not be your default library.
Once you're sure the external library is good you can delete the library on the SSD.

Is there any way to change the default folder for new finder windows...

...Or even set a different folder as the "home folder"?
I am recovering from an incredibly messy archive and install which refused to allow me to save my old user accounts, instead moving them all into "Previous Systems". In my haste to get the machine working again I just dragged and dropped my old home folder into the /users/ directory and changed the "short name" of the new account to match it. IT worked, but now I have an incredibly irritating problem. That is now indeed my home folder, as appears in the sidebar of all finder windows, albeit under my new short name instead of my old one. All my documents in iWeb, Garageband, etc are working now and default to the new folder.
However, Finder has not recognized this, and every time I open a new Finder window or anything like that it defaults to the home folder created by the reinstall, which is now locked to this account (so all the folders have a red no entry sign on them). I would very much like to tell Finder to ignore this now defunct folder and default to my actual home folder instead - is there a way to do this without actually moving or changing any folders? Like a preference setting somewhere? I know there's the "Advanced Options" pane in Leopard but I've been completely unable to find anything like it in Tiger

How do I change the default folder for saving contacts?

I have happily used Outlook for several years for POP accounts. My recent addition of an Exchange account has hijacked several default behaviors that I was used to. For one, contacts are now saved by default in the exchange related contact
folder instead of the folder that is associated with my primary POP account. How do I reconfigure Outlook to saved contacts to my preferred folder, so that I don't have to constantly move the new contacts after they are saved? I do not want this
information on the exchange account. This bad behaviour occurs no matter what email account is read, from which I am saving the contact info.
To reproduce the problem: Open a message in the POP email, right click on the FROM email address, choose Add to Contacts from the menu, find the contact stored in the exchange contact folder instead of the contact folder for the POP account (the folder
that Outlook USED to save to prior to adding the exchange account).
Work around: (annoying the first few times, mentally unhealthy after more than a few) Save the contact, then manually move it to the correct folder.

Hi,
What version of Outlook are you using?
I have test this in Outlook 2010/ Windows 7.
If set POP as default outlook data file(.pst),
Open a message in the POP email, and right click "Add to Contact" in FROM with External email address, it will save to POP contact folder.
If the Email address end with @Exchange.com, it always save to Exchange contact folder, no matter what is default email account, maybe this behavior by default.
Hope this helps.

In PSE 12, how can I change the default folder for scans?

By default, PSE uses the Windows preferred location for this user. I have a folder that is easier to access, simply D:\Scans, and I have to enter this manually, as well as removing the default to set up a folder with "today's date" every time I do a scan. I would like to modify these default settings. Surely those locations must be held in an installed file somewhere, and so if I can just edit that file I'd be very happy! All help appreciated.

I have no suggestion for registry editing or setting files editing, but depending on which version of Windows you have you don't have to stick with C:\Users. Right-click the relevant folder and change the location in the Location tab.
Cheers,
Neale

How can I change the default folder to open within an application?

Before 10.10.3 applications would open the previously used folder when I opened a document from within an app such as Word. Now the default open folder is my Documents. The Finder Preferences window doesn't have the option to choose the previously used folder. How can I get back the ability to have the previously used folder be the default?

The app would store that information in your preferences. Do you notice that any other preferences do not stick if you change them?

How do I set the default folder in which to save scans?

I'm using an MX922. I think someone asked the same question for the MX850, but I didn't find any replies. Would like to change the folder that the front panel SCAN button sends the file to. Thanks for any help.

How can I change the default "from" email account on my iPad/iPhone in IOS 8.2?

I currently use my phone & pad for business and personal use. My emails should come from my business account but they're coming from my Yahoo account. How can I change it without having to manually change each email? I've checked online but I don't see settings/mail,contacts,calendars/default account in this new revision of software.
Thanks!

Hi bschmidt0726,
Go to "Setting"; scroll down to the 4th box for "iCloud"; You need to turn on you "Mail" option in the "iCloud" settings.
Then,
Go into "Settings", scroll down to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars"; on the left panel, scroll down to the 4th box; there you'll find the "Default Account" settings.

How can we change the default folder location (avoiding problems with Temporary Internet Files)

(Environment in question: Windows 7 secure desktop (running as user not admin), Office 2010)
Hello,
As has been touched on in various forums (such as here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/797451), when one opens a PDF attachment in Outlook, Acrobat and Reader store the file in the "Temporary Internet Files" folder (f/k/a OLK folder in previous versions of Outlook. There are two major problems with this:
First, as Microsoft has documented in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817878, attachments end up here staying here under certain conditions (go checks your now, you'll find some!), which ends up being a file attachment no man's land, and that can present security risks (e.g. if data we thought was deleted still lives in that folder).
Secondly, the first time you open an attachment in Acrobat and do a Save As, Acrobat is defaulting to the Temporary Internet Files location. This folder (as noted in the thread linked above) is ridiculously hard to get to for the average user, so they can end up storing a file and then losing it.
We've found that if we open Acrobat once, do a save as, and change to the users Documents folder, the change sticks. But how can we have Acrobat default to Documents instead of that temporary location?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you check to see if Acrobat sets a registry entry or file preference for the first Save As? That's where I would start looking. Process Monitor is a good tool for this.

How can i change the default country in iPhoto when ordering cards and submitting a shipping address

I am a Canadian visiting in the states. I have a MacBook with latest IOS 10.7.5 and IPhoto 11 running 9.2.3. I have checked my Apple ID and have my Primary address as a Canadian address, and two USA addresses listed as shipping addresses. After closing and re-oping iPhoto, and logging in with my me.com id, I attempt trying to order Christmas cards which I've created in iPhoto. However, after selecting "Buy Card" I get to a screen where the country is notaed as "Canada", and as I fill out a shipping address, I am given an error message when typing in State/prob abbreviation (MI for Michigan) and postal code because they are USA items. The name "Canada" is viewable on the screen and non-changeable. How do i able to get a US shipping address selected for my cards?

Can I change the default folder color?

That's my question.

Sure. I use an application called CandyBar. There may be others. You can then change this and many other aspects of the system too.
