HOW TO SAVE FILES WITHOUT HAVING TO SEARCH FOR DESTINATION FOLDER AGAIN

Hello maybe someone can help me on this one.
I have a MacBookPro. And run loads of applications like Logic Pro, Photoshop, Peak, ProTools, etc.
Everytime I save changes on a project or file i am working on i have to choose the destination folder. Is there a way to save settings so that the last folder chosen automatically comes up when i would like to save new changes i did? I mean now i have to search and choose the destination folder each and every time I want to save changes. Since I have loads of projects i am working on and since i have MANY folders and sub folders this is quite irritating since it slows down my work flow.
I used to use a Powerbook G4 (os x 10.4.11) and I never had that problem. Each and every time I saved changes the machine automatically chose the folder i previously used to save. I never had to save settings for none of the MANY applications I use. This was something that went automatically: My powerbook automatically chose the last folder that i used to save files into.
I'd like to have my MacBookPro do the same.
Anyone knows about this issue?
Thanks in advance.
ps: i tried to explain best as i could in English (i am Dutch so excuse the (spelling) mistakes i might have made)

I put an alias in some folders to go to commonly or frequently used locations so I could "Boomerang".
Maybe take a look at the Default Folder utility.

    hiya. thanks for your suggestion. i just tried it and it worked so thanks XD
    i wish apple would make an "exclude" option though tbh.
    i have some others called ... in the name "...soundtrack" (one word) or "hidden track" and "teaching track" !
    i've got another one literally called "track by track walk through" lol
    now im wishing there was just an option to select these oddballs and exclude them individually.
    i cant come up with rules for every single possibility, but i cannnn eliminate those odd songs when i see them if there was an exclude option.
    but thanks anyway xx

  • I have a CS3 for windows and I switched to a mac.  Can I get a mac version without having to pay for the suite again

    I have a CS3 for windows and I switched to a mac.  Can I get a mac version without having to pay for the suite again?

    No.
    Adobe only offers a Platform Swap on current software: Order product | Platform, language swap
    CS3 is also too old to have an "upgrade path" and is no longer sold or supported by Adobe.
    You do, as a CS3 owner, qualify for a 40% discount on your first year of a Creative Cloud Subscription though: Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud
    If you don't want to go with the subscription service, Adobe does still offer CS6 (4 versions away from current & no longer receiving updates) as a "one time payment/download" perpetual license: Creative Suite 6

  • I had pages installed on my mac but then my system crashed.  When it was recovered the pages application was gone.  Is there a way to recover it without having to pay for the app again?

    I had pages installed on my imac but then my system crashed.  When I got it recovered the pages application was gone.  Is there a way to recover it without purchasing the app again?

    I have the same issue with pages/keynote and numbers (iWorks).  Came preinstalled when I bought the macbook air back in 2010 (Out of warranty). It crashed a couple of months ago so I took it to Apple but when I got it back the iWorks was no longer there.  I cannot go back to Apple for a few months as there is no Apple store where I am currently.

  • Can I load "Pages" onto new hard drive without having to pay for it again?

    I have a 5 yr old Mac that just had it's hard drive replaced.  I had paid for and loaded Pages onto the original hard drive.  Wondering if there's any way to load Pages onto my new hard drive without having to pay for the program again.  Thanks so much

    If you originally installed Pages from a CD or DVD, reinstall it from there.
    If you installed Pages from the Mac App Store, yes, from the Apple ID you purchased it with.
    If you got Pages from the iTunes App Store, the Mac version of it is a separate purchase.

  • How to restore a control file without having its backup

    Hi,
    Can any one please suggest me how to restore a control file without having its backup.
    Thanks

    To add to what SB said, in years past the instructions for re-creating the control file manually were contained in the DBA Administration manual. It used to be and may still be common to be taking and saving a "backup control file to trace" for this purpose.
    If you lost only the primary copy of the control file and it is an OS file then while the database is shutdown you can copy the secondary over the primary and then use if to start the database. If the control file is stored in ASM then there should be a way to perform the copy via ASM.
    If you use rman for backups then a copy of the control file should be part of the backup process and you can retrieve it from the backup set then perform recovery using the backup control file though I do note the OP said something to the effect no backup exists. Still, I have knows of instances where the DBA did not realize that the backup set contained the control file and the spfile so I think this is worth mentioning just in case.

  • Is there any way to create 3D PDF file without having the model tree ?

    Is there any way to create 3D PDF file without having the model tree ?
    3D communication is good but sometime we don't want the receiver to be able to study every components in model.
    or any way to make the receiver cannot use model tree and measurement tool ????
    Thank you very much

    You can remove the assembly tree by doing a roundtrip in 3D Toolkit, here's how:
    - start Acrobat 3D
    - drag & drop a CAD file
    - click on 3D Annot to activate
    - right-click on 3D
    - select 'Edit in 3D Toolkit'
    - 3D Toolkit launches
    - click in 'Scene Tree' panel
    - right-click on top assembly name
    - select 'Tools->Collapse Hierarchy'
    - select 'File->Save'
    - select 'File->Exit'

  • I've lost all my music since my last computer died. How do I get that music back without having to pay for it? I read somewhere that there is a "form to request to download iTunes purchases again", is this true?

    All of my music is missing from iTunes since my last computer died and had to get a new one.  How do I get that music back without having to pay for it again?  I've read somewhere there is a "form to request to download iTunes purchases again", is this true? 

    Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
    In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.

  • Help!! Trying to writing an array to a file without having to rewrite the old data every time.

    Hey Everyone,
    I have a vi that takes a 2D array and writes it to an xml file. The purpose for this is to characterize the pathloss through a dowkey 10x10 matrix at varies frequencies. I use this program to create a look-up table for the switch matrix so when I conduct one of my automated tests I can obtain an accurate measurment. The problem with this is I am taking about 299 data points per switch matrix combination leading me to over 32000 data points in the look-up table. The reason I use xml is because each data point needs a header so I can parse through the look-up table with another one of my vi's when I need that pathloss. What I am trying to fix is that when my vi writes to a file it writes one array at a time to save memory space. When it writes it rewrites the old data then the new data. As the number of data points increase so does the lag time to write to the file. By the time I am done it takes about five hours to fully write to the file. Does anyone know of a way to write continuesly write to a file without having to rewrite all of the old data? Attached is my vi for writing to the file, my vi for searching through the file, and an example of one of my look-up tables.
    Thanks,
    Dustin

    The only way to do that is to only append to the end of your file.  This would probably require some rewriting of your header information.

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

  • How to save imej without background

    How to save imej without background in Ai CS5, like in Photoshop psd. I need only the object without the base background. Without doing CLIPPING MASK.
    I know there is a method but didn't remember.

    I don't know anything about iMovie but I'm guessing it requires files to be a certain way, like maybe an Alpha Channel is required or s specific format. I'd look into their documentation. See if thry have a forum somewhere.

  • How to save file in users temp directory in java

    How to save file in users temp directory as "<Drive Name>:\Documents and Settings\<User Name\Local Settings\Temp".

    Shouldn't the System property "user.home" reference to that directory on windows? So if you call System.getProperty("user.home");, I think it should return that path at least up to <User Name>. I never really tried it on Windows though.

  • I had iPhoto as part of iLife 11. I recently did an erase and install on my Macbook Air and without a CD drive I'm unable to reinstall. How can I install without having to repurchase all of the apps?

    I had iPhoto as part of iLife 11. I recently did an erase and install on my Macbook Air and without a CD drive I'm unable to reinstall. How can I install without having to repurchase all of the apps?

    Do you have access to another Mac with a disk drive?  If so you can do it in one of two ways:
    1 - on the Mac with the optical drive launch Disk Utility and make a disk image of the iLife 11 disk. Connect the two Macs together and transfer the disk image to your MacBook Air.  Mount the disk image and install from it.  I have my iLife disks saved that way for quick and easy reinstall when necessary.
    2 - connect the two Mac together so you can access the MBA from the Mac with the disk drive. Insert the iLife disk, and install from the second Mac to the MBA.
