Preset folder location in Win 7

I need to move the preset folder to a new Win 7 computer and I cant find the
Win 7 location to move it to. help? jc

I guess you have "Store Presets with the Catalog" checked in your Preferences and your catalog resides on an portable HDD?
If you want to stay with presets individual to different catalogs, they'll always reside where your catalog resides.
If not, you can
uncheck the "Store Presets with the Catalog" in your Preferences
copy the preferences stored with your catalog to the location you'll see in "Show Lightroom Presets Folder..." after unchecking the switch
From then on, you'll see the same presets with all your catalogs.

Preset folder location is not correct

Bought a new Mac so this may be part of the problem. Now when I have added some new Develop Presets from a vendor, they don't show up in the Preset list. So went to Prefereences>Presets>Locate Preset Folder. But it points to a folder at Pictures>Lightroom.
How do I get it to point to the right folder so all my presets will load?
Tried hitting "Restore Local Adjustment Presets" because I had some new ones in there. Made a copy in another location before I did this just in case it tried to delete them, but that didn't work and they weren't deleted. Relaunched the program several times. Still can't point to the right folder.
Thoughts?

I've discovered that the Local Adjustments presets don't go in the Picture>Lightroom folder on the Mac. Rather they go in this folder: User>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Lightroom>Local Adjustments.
And there's no way to have LR import them there. If you double click on them in the Finder Desktop, it will install them in the wrong place (the Picture>Lightroom path).
The default LR presets (Burn, Dodge, and 2 others) show up just fine on the pull-down menu in Local Adjustments bar and they are in the same folder with the newly acquired presets (about 20 of them) but the new ones won't appear in the pull-down menu. Have re-launched LR numerous times but still they don't show.

Where is the LR5 export presets folder located on Mac Mtn Lion?

I cannot find this folder?

On Windows I can get to this folder with:
LR -> Edit / Preferences / Presets (tab) / Show LR Presets Folder (button) and this highlights the Lightroom catalog folder because I have my presets stored with my catalog.
Once I click into this highlighted folder, the Export Presets subfolder and all the rest of the presets subfolders are under a folder called Lightroom Settings.
With LR 5.2 RC, at least, it appears that the Adobe presets are internalized in LR, and only the User presets are in this folder structure.

Where is the Metadata Presets folder located in Windows Vista?

Any ideas where this folder is located in Vista? I can't seem to find it.
Thanks
Frank

Go to a Develop Preset. Right-click it and select Show in Explorer. Then go up one folder, and all the Presets are there.

New Presets Do Not Consistently Go to Preset Folder

I generated a new Preset using Camera Raw as a Filter in Photoshop. When I went to save, it pointed to the folder in which the image file is stored, not the Preset folder in ACR. This does not happen consistently. However, I do not make it a practice to save new presets using the filter version as it is a scaled down version for obvious reasons. If I make a new Preset when I am in ACR from a raw file or even tiff, it saves it properly. Is there a way to point to the ACR folder instead of the image folder without going through the file tree to get there?
Windows 7, CC2014
BTW, the instructions I found to find the preset folder in Win 7 was way wrong. Talk about frustrating!

Here's what I found on line vs what really works to access the Settings folder.

PSE 7 confusion about folder location, help needed

Here's some background: I'm using PhotoShop Elements 7 on Win XP. I have an external firewire hard drive I use for overflow/backups. Originally, this showed up as a K: drive on my system.
I added a RAID controller and two more drives to stripe as a single drive for temp space rendering movies. This ended up as a K: drive and the external moved to L: However, when I did this there were some pictures from my catalog that I had on the external drive. I have used File > reconnect missing files to handle the moves, but PSE is still confused (very).
PSE has started to mix up the RAID (K:) and external (L:) content. If I move a set of pictures (e.g. a folder of them) onto the external drive (L:) via drag and drop in the folder location view, the folder will show up empty on the L: heirarchy, but will show up as a gray folder icon in the K: RAID drive hierarchy. If I open up windows explorer, the RAID drive will appear empty. In other cases (I'm not sure when/how yet), pictures physically end up on the RAID drive itself instead of the external. I have uninstalled both the external drive and the RAID drive and reinstalled them both, but they are still getting confused in the folder view by PSE. I've also tried moving content outside of PSE and just reconnecting missing files, but it still wants to put things under the K: RAID drive instead of the external L:.
I've searched everywhere I can think of for a description of what gray folder icons in the folder location view means and can find none. I'm not sure how to convince PSE that there's nothing on the RAID K: drive and it shouldn't try to connect the two. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jim

Thank you! I ran psedbtool and the output shows the catalog has the wrong drive letter for the L: drive.
Is there a way to make PSE forget about the K: and L: drives that it is so confused about so that it can relearn of their existence? If I use the drive letter reassignment to fix PSE, it will break other apps that are now dependent on the current drive letter assignments. I've tried removing all files from the L: drive, but it's still remembered as part of the catalog.
Thanks,
Jim

Folder Retrieval in Win 7

By Mistake I have deleted a folder thru Shift+del option. I want the recovery of this folder......tell me how to retrieve this folder.

I guess you have "Store Presets with the Catalog" checked in your Preferences and your catalog resides on an portable HDD?
If you want to stay with presets individual to different catalogs, they'll always reside where your catalog resides.
If not, you can

Where is Smart Sharpen CS3 Settings folder located on the computer?

Where is Smart Sharpen CS3 Settings folder located on the computer?
Filter>Sharpen>Smart Sharpen
Settings>Save a Copy of Settings.
I once created and saved many custom settings on my old computer.
They would appear in the drop down Setting menu.
My question is, where is the Smart Sharpen Settings folder located on the computer?
I did do a Forum Search Smart Sharpen but results did not yield any info on where custom settings are stored.
Thank you in advance.
Kathryn
Mac OSX version 10.4.11

Kathryn...
I remember this exact subject coming up a year ago or more, and at that time I did some experimentation and some digging. Up until you asked your question, I had forgotten I ferreted this out before.
Back then, I created and saved a Smart Sharpen preset, and I named it
drogueflute
so I could find it again.
Just this morning, I did the same thing (because I had forgotten that I did it before), and named the preset
whelkvines
, again, so I could find it easily. Imagine my surprise when I first dropped that presets menu in the Smart Sharpen dialogue, and saw
drogueflute
staring back at me! The memories of doing this same thing before all came flooding back.
OK...so I saved out the preset I named
whelkvines
I found references to the two custom settings I saved out of the Smart Sharpen dialogue box. They are buried deep within the code for Photoshop's settings.
For me (and I'll generally assume for most users) these are stored in the Preferences folder...
../Users/
youruseraccountname
/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS2 Settings/Adobe Photoshop CS2 Prefs.psp
Sooooo, if you want to import these presets, you'll need to find the "Adobe Photoshop
[version name Prefs.psp" file on your old computer that contained your custom Smart Sharpen presets and put it in its proper place on your new system, replacing the preferences (.psp) file you're currently working from.
Be warned that if the Prefs file on your old computer is from an ancient version of Photoshop, it may not work for a newer version on your new system.
Make sure you keep your current Prefs file handy (move it to your desktop, for example) so you can replace it if something breaks in a really bad way. Or, you could just reset ALL of your current Photoshop preferences by following the instructions presented in the FAQ section of this forum.

Cs5 / wrong presets folder , how can i fix it?

hi
on my laptop i have photoshop cs5 64bit , and i have a problem with preset folder
when i try to save black and white adjustament layer , photoshop points to a wrong folder
it points on my data partition
how can i fix it?
maybe a solution that is not a reset of all my preferences
thanks

Can you not just navigate to the correct preset folder in the save dialog?
Photoshop has a habit of remembering folders you navigate to. So the next time you save things like actions it saves the save path location. The next time you save an action Photoshop will default to the location but you can navigate back to Photoshop Preset Actions folder and save there.
I never save My actions into Adobe created folders. Most of the stuff I add to Photoshop I save in my own folders not Adobe created folders. Some things to I do let Photoshop save into Adobe default locations like my users preferences additions like workspaces. Adobe migration works well migrating those presets well.
Thing l Photoshop like Scripts and Plug-in I maintain in my own file system trees and link to these from Adobe folders. All versions of Photoshop share my files system threes. The Are a few exceptions some third party add-ons are coded in such a way the will only work when installed into Adobe default locations for Plug-in and scripts. I seem to need to keep more and more versions of Photoshop installed these days. New versions get new features added and old features removed. You never know what will be removed these days.

Duotone presets folder empty

In the Scott Kelby book on CS3 for digital photographers, in the section on quadtoning he describes duotone presets that are supposed to already loaded in the presets folder. On My CS3 extended, the presets folder is empty. Is this something that I need an update for? Otherwise what am I missing.

It's a CS3 bug. CS3 took you to the wrong location. Click load; then navigate to Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Presets.

Presets folder missing

Hi
I've had this issue before when I installed the production premium the first time...my presets folder that's supposed to be in the support files folder is nonexistent. Can somebody help me out here? I really need it to get some work done...no idea why its not there, I even tried reinstalling things I may have missed! Thanks
-Alex

Cs5, windows 7 and the location is
computer/local disk (C:)/program files/adobe/adobe after effects cs5/support files/presets...presets is missing! I tried downloading the extra packs with templates on the site here but it still is not showing up. What could be the issue?

Show lightroom presets folder wont open!

Hello.. I was hoping someone could help me.
I just bought an iMAC... 3 days now... still trying to get it going and up and running.
Well I finally got my presets downloaded, by importing on the left side of the screen.. which is great.
But I still need to dowload my adjustment brushes...
When I go to preferences, and go to "show lightroom presets folder"
IT WONT OPEN......nothing comes up.. I click and click and click.. I restarted LR, over and over.. nothing comes up.. what am I doing wrong?

Most likely adminstrator permissions on your Mac OS is not configured to give you access but you can find the folder location in this document: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-4.html
