Trying to install presets but can't find presets folder

I just upgraded to Lion AND purchased Lightroom 4. I'm trying to install a set of presets by going to lightroom preferences, presets and clicking on the "show lightroom presets folder" but when I click the button nothing happens at all. In fact, I can't click on any buttons in the preferences menu or click on the tabs at the top or anything. I tried to search for the folder on my computer but nothing came up either. I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong or if there's something wrong with the way lightroom is installed on my computer?
Thanks

I dont think that you need to reinstall.  Apparently, Mountain Lion hides the Library folder.  It appears when you look at the main HDD, but when you click on users and then your main account it is hidden and this is where the presets are.  Here is a link to help reveal the library folder.

Once you have the library revealed you should be able to find the presets at this path USERS/%User%/Library/Appplication Support/Adobe/Lightroom
I thought I did something wrong as well.  I hope this is helps you out.

    10.3 does not have the App Store available.      Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac and the following will bring it back depending on what you have:
    Any version of 10.6, use the 10.6.8 Combo Update:
    Combo v1.1 (7/25/2011)
    Any version of 10.7, use the 10.7.5 Combo Update: 10.7.5 Combo
    Any version of 10.8, use the 10.8.5 Combo Update: 10.8.5 Combo
    Any version of 10.9, use the 10.9.2 Combo Update: 10.9.2 Combo
    Note, if you it does not bring it back, you may need to run the combo keys of command-R on boot restore if you have 10.7 or later, and then the appropriate Combo update.    If you have 10.6.8 or earlier, command-R restore is not available, and you need to either use the original 10.6 installer disc, if the Mac is newer than March 15, 2010, or the 10.6.3 retail disc found here for 10.6 compatible Macs that are older (that includes any Intel CPU Mac with at least 1 GB of RAM):
    10.6 retail is available from the Apple Store on http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard (the /us/ in the link may be changed for the standard two letter country code matching the store link). 
    If you are using a PowerPC Mac, G3, G4, or G5 you can't install 10.6, or the App Store.
    Those using 10.6.8 or earlier, do not jump to 10.7 or later, without reading this tip first:

  • Due to total restore on my macbook 10.6.8  I have lost imovie. Trying to download it but can only find updates, any suggestions would be grateful.

    With your machine you should have received a couple of disks, one of which has application software or even a separate iLife disk...use that to reinstall the iLife software and update from there.

  • I'm trying to share folder between users on a single mac.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    I'm trying to share a folder between users on a single mac.  I want both users to be able to read and write so the folder stays current on both accounts.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions on folder so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    Did you log out of one account and into the other or just used Fast user switching?
    Is the permissions set to anyone?
    When you move data to teh Shared folder is it copied or just moved?
    If copied then it's not a folder both can access, just a way station like a USB thumb drive that things are coped too and off of likely.
    You can run this #5 on each user account to reset the user permissions once they are taken back out of the Shared folder

  • Installed Myspace but can't find it.....

    I installed the Myspace app to my phone but can't find the icon anywhere. I know it uploaded because it's in my applications list but the icon isn't on my home screen. I tired rebooting by taking out the battery and such, but NOTHING! Can anyone help? Thanx in advance.

    Ok, so I've been struggling with this issue for months. I was looking around today on here and didn't find much information. But, I took a couple of different things and tried them. I'm not sure WHICH helped, but here is what I did and MySpace just uploaded successfully on my Blackberry Curve.
    I deleted the MySpace Application from the App List (Options (The wrench)-Advanced Options-MySpace-Menu Button-Delete)
    I restarted my phone
    I changed the theme from the AT&T to the BB Dimension Zen (Options-Theme- BB Dimension Zen)
    I logged onto my Browser and went to www.myspace.com
    I clicked on the "Download MySpace for your Blackberry" or whatever it says
    Before I clicked "Download", I checked the "Set Application Permissions" box.
    I clicked "Download"
    It took me to the Application Permissions
    I changed the first two from "Custom" to "Allow"
    I hit the back arrow on my phone
    I chose "Save"
    It started downloading
    When it was finished, MySpace was listed under my Applications and is WORKING!!! HALLELUJAH! I'm not sure WHICH of those seemingly MANY steps made it work, but it did!
    Let me know if it does for you too!

  • Installed Xcode but can't find /developer directory

    I am a novice developer this might be a stupid question but I need help installing excode so I can eventually install dashcode. I'm using iMac 10.7.3 and installed xcode4.3.1 from app store. But I can't find any /developer directory. There is nothing in the 'application' folder that says "install xcode." How do I continue with the installation after downloading excode to my computer? (which I believe I did.)

    I realize now. Dashcode is now a separate application. Problem solved. Thanks.

  • Lightroom installed but can't find it

    Hi,
    I just subscribed to lightroom + photoshop CC plan. I then installed photoshop and lightroom on OsX Maverick from the creative cloud application but can't find the Lightroom app...
    I tried to re-install it from the lightroom disk image but it keeps asking me for a password...
    How can I start the right (CC) lightroom ? Do I have to download a serial number from a torrent file as so many people do without any issue ?
    Thanks.

    I have no experience with the CC applications. But it seems that sometimes the "regular" Lightroom installer fails to create a shortcut for starting the program. Checking your applications folder and see if you can find the Lightroom program. You might have to create your own desktop icon. I'm saying this because I understand from what You wrote that you have already installed Lightroom. Is that correct?

  • HT1338 i purchased dvd studio pro and im trying to install it but when i go to click continue it gives me this  "you cant open the application gestalt tool becasue powerpc applications are no longer supported" what does that mean and how can i fix this ?

    i purchased dvd studio pro and im trying to install it but when i go to click continue it gives me this  "you cant open the application gestalt tool becasue powerpc applications are no longer supported" what does that mean and how can i fix this ?

    I note this information from Wikipedia: "DVD Studio Pro was a high-end software tool published by Apple Inc. to allow users to create DVD masters to be sent out for replication at production houses. Its tight integration with other Apple applications allows users to take Final Cut Pro and Motion projects and render them into the DVD format without encoding to intermediary formats. This streamlines the production workflow and reduces overhead."
    If that is your intent, finding a substitute program that will run on your Mac may not be as efficient.  Others can advise you on alternatives, or you can post a new thread specifically with that question.
    BTW: what Mac and what version of OS X?
    If it is important to you to continue to use DVD Studio Pro, consider the option of installing Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels on your Mac:

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I want to run apple Hardware Test but can't find it on any CD's.  I bought my iMac in 2009.  I think it had 10.4 installed.  It's not on my installation disk.  Where can I find it?

    I want to run Apple Hardware Text but can't find it on any CD's.  I bought my iMac in 2009.  It came with 10.4.  Apple Hardware Test is not on the installation disk.  Should I have it?  Where can I find it?  I"m now running 10.7.4.

    The disc plainly state:
    To  use the AHT, hold down the D key as the computer starts up.
    Works here. However, there was an issue with installing Lion that screwed this process up.
    Mount disc 2, run this command in the Terminal app, OPTION-click & hold Finder's Dock icon, and select RELAUNCH:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1
    That unhides all hidden files/folders.
    Now, drill down to /"Applications Install\ Disc"/System/Library/CoreServices/ and drag the .diagnostics folder into your Lion boot volume's /System/Library/CoreServices/ folder. That might require you to authenticate to copy the folder into the CoreServices subfolder.
    Run this command to hide the normally hidden files/folders and RELAUNCH the Finder again.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0
    This should allow the machine to boot into AHT when restarting and holding down the D key.
    If that doesn't do the trick, run this command in the Terminal app:
    sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/CoreServices/.diagnostics
    At the Password: prompt, carefully type in your admin password, since nothing shows up on the screen, and hit the return key. Then, try another restart, holding down the D key.

  • How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk.

    How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk. Want to use internal disk drive or USD flash drive.

    Try calling 1-800-676-2775.  Give the serial number and thy *may* still burn you new install disks designed just for the hrdware in your system (for a fee, something like $160 per disk).  *May* is only because they may not burn disks for Leopard anymore.
    If they do not burn them for you, you can buy Leopard disks off Amazon or eBay for about $200.
    Have you considered Snow Leopard?.  Those disks only cost $19 (single user) or $29 (5-user license) through Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE.

  • I am trying to cancell a mag subscription (AWW) in the app store but can't find where to do it. I've been round

    Hi I'm new to this so hope I'm doing it right. I've been trying to cancell a subscription to a magazine from the AppStore but can't seem to find any email address to contact them.  I can't even find my account.  I've been billed thru iTunes, but can't find contact details for them either. I thought that I had cancelled it at one address but was billed for the next issue today so obviously I got that wrong.  I'm in Australia, if that makes a difference. Can anyone out there help me with this please? I'm using an ipad3 and a Mac pro. Thanks.

    If it's an auto-renewing subscription then there is info on turning them off on this page :  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

    I have a wirless network. I connect all my computers to it and a printer. I can print wirelessly from all computers. I tried to add the printer to my new Macbook, which is connecte to the network, but can't find the printer on the add printer and scan icon on preferences. I downloaded a installation printer utility from the Manufacturer (lexmark), but it didn't work. Any sugestions?
    Thanks,

    You would need to get the IP address of your printer then manually add a network print queue.
    To get the IP address, on the control panel of your printer, press on Setup > Network Setup > TCP/IP > View/Set IP address.
