How do I change the preview file location?

I have a SSD "C:" drive which is filling up, and I have other drives with lots of space and performance, so I'd like to move where SB stores the preview files (currently in "Adobe Soundbooth Preview Files") to a different drive.
I haven't seen anything in the SB config which allows me to do this, is there a way, and if so - what is it?
Thx!

(1) Open a new tab to about:config (type about:config in the Awesomebar and tap the go arrow or tap Enter)
(2) In the search box, type down and tap Enter
(3) Scroll down to browser.download.folderList and tap Modify, then change the value from 1 to 2 (from default always to last used folder). The change should appear after a few seconds.
(3) Scroll back up and tap the "Add a New Setting" button
(A) String is the correct type, so OK that
(B) The name of the preference should be browser.download.dir (this stores the last used directory)
(C) The value should be /sdcard/ followed by the folder name you want to use, for example, /sdcard/FxDown

How do I change the master files location?

Hi all,
there is a question that is making me crazy.
I got all my master file inside an external Hd (named 1).
The entire collection of the master file is backed up inside another external Hd (named 2).
The question is: in case Hd 1 get broken, how can I "tell" to Aperture to select the master file inside the Hd 2 (that are right the same)?
Is there a shortcut?
I hope someone can help me to solve that.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Simone

If I understand, in Aperture you can select different location for different files.
If you want to move only some pictures from the external Hd into another location (for example your Pc Hd), you can select them then choose file/relocate master and select a different location for them.
The suggest is maintain the same folder structure while moving this files.
Aperture is still able to find them.
In case you get confused about the exact location of a pictures, simply right click on the mouse and select "show in the finder".
I hope this is what you asked.

Screen shots - how do I change the default file type

Screen shots using command, shift, 4: I used to get pdf files from the screen shot command, now I get PNG files. How do I change the default file type from PNG to PDF? PNGs are a pain.

Also, there are utilities like OnyX that will change the screenshot settings.
But this AppleScript is my favorite.

Note that you can also drag-n-drop a folder onto this application to change the default location.

how can I change the preview in imessage on a mac, when notifing me?
I want it not to preview, just to show me the name of the person sending me the message, not the name of the person sending the message and the message they wrote.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use iMessage. There's an iMessage Support Community where everybody uses iMessage. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

How do I change the Home file name back to Home?

Help! - How do I change the Home file name back to Home? My supplier changed it to Demo. I've tried pressing return, control click and Get Info but none gives access to change the name. Any ideas?

The Home folder isn't named "Home." It is named for the user account it represents.
Who is your "supplier?" Sounds like they're not terribly bright.
Can you provide some details on why they "changed" it. Is this a brand new Mac? Were you having information transferred from another computer?
It sounds like you just need to create a new account and get rid of "Demo."
While logged into the "Demo" account, go to System Preferences in the Apple Menu.
Click on Users & Groups
If the padlock is locked, click on it and enter your password.
Click the + button at the bottom of the list of users. This will create a new account. Fill in the information you'd like to use for your account. The account name is what will be used for the "Home" folder.
Once created, select it from the list and check the box to "Allow user to administer this computer."
You can then log out of "Demo" and log in as your new user. If there is nothing in the Demo account that you want, you can delete it from the Users & Groups System Pref.

How do I change the .php file name for a page of my site?

how do I change the .php file name for a page of my site? The only link to the page is the nav. button link for it in the global nav. The reason I need to change the file name is we want the breadcrumbing name to change and the breadcrumbing is linked to the file name.

The reason I need to change the file name is we want the breadcrumbing name to change and the breadcrumbing is linked to the file name.
I don't understand this reason. How would changing the file extension solve your breadcrumb issue? Why don't you explain the issue in more detail.

I'd like to change the dfault file location, C:My pictures, to another file location, eg E or G. What can I do to change it?

See above question.

Hi trshaner,
Thanks again for your complete reaction. I’ve looked at the video and the help-information. This made me decide to leave the file My pictures where it is (C) and move some of the other folders/files to the E-drive. Thanks for your help.

:-) How can we change the default file path for Bank file ( dmee ) ?

Hi All,
We encounter a problem.
Electronic bank file ( created after a F110 run ) are created, in an automatic way to the DIR_TEMP directory. ( On the SAP server )
How can we change the default file path for Bank files ( dmee ) ?
We'd like to specify another path.
Thx for your help.
Erwan

Hello,
Make sure that you have created the directory in transaction code AL11 with the help of basis consultants.
You can link your PC directory to the application server.
You can maintain the path whether your file needs to get saved in OBPM4 against your DMEE structure example GB_BACS etc.
If you do not maintain any path in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory. If you give the directory path name in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to that directory with numbers 0001, 0002, 0003 etc till it reaches 9999 and reset from the beginning.
If you give the path as well as file name as ABCD, then the file gets generated to that directory folder with ABCD0001, ABCD0002, ABCD0003 etc. till it reaches ABCD9999 and reset from the beginning.
Hope this solves your problem.
Regards,
Ravi

The 2 year old fix for changing temp files is no longer valid, I need to change the temp file location in the latest firefox.

In 3.6.3 I'm unable to find the parent cache to change where the temp files are located. I have an SSD drive, and I need to get the temp file off, and onto my platter drive. I have read the previous fix of about:config and changing the parent cache location, but it no longer seems to be there. I'm unable to locate anything relating to my SSD drive location in about:config.
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.70 Safari/533.4

Unfortunately, it appears that what I wrote about not being able to find the location IN about:config of the cache to change it from my C: drive to a different location, was mildly misunderstood that I didn't know how to get into about:config.
The location of browser.cache.disk.parent_directory does not currently exist in 3.6.3. I'm assuming it's under a different location. Also using the simple string of "cache" lists several options, but none of them appear to be where firefox is currently dumping the temp files onto my C:
I merely need to know how to switch the temp file location from 1 drive, to another. Not downloads, the temp file.

How do I change the preview cache disk?

I keep seeing statements such as "there is nothing to stop
you from locating the preview cache on another disk". Um.. there is a problem.
I find no option to do it anywhere. In catalog settings it only "Shows" the location and does not allow changing it. Am I missing something? I have looked and looked and the process is described nowhere. It is very frustrating because I can find these things on my own quite readily and in LR its totally buried if its possible at all.
Also;
How can I change the default camera calibration from the ACR 4.4 to Adobe standard ? The first thing I have to do after every import is go back and sync to a different camera profile.
Thanks in advance for any help

In order that you can change the camera default profile you must be in the Develop module then change the profile to Adobe Standard. Next, choose Default Settings from Develop module. When the dialog appears you should click on Update to Current Settings...
It's not possible to change the location of the library preview cache because it must be in the same folder as the catalog. However, changing the Camera Raw preview cache (used by Develop module) location is done through Preferences. The following screen shot shows you where to make the change.

How do I change the downloaded file default from protected mode

Word and pdf show up in protective mode - how do I change the default to allow editing?

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
