Where are Automator Actions stored?

I want to use an Automator action on other computers and send it to a friend, but there is no Export option. Does anyone know where an action that I created is stored?? I checked in system and user Library folders, but only found the built-in actions. I also don't see anything showing up in Application Support folders.

Automator actions, like Service workflows, are stored in specific locations. Since you can store your other workflows pretty much anywhere you want, you can "Open an Existing Workflow..." of the desired type (it may also be in the list of recent items) or search using the Finder/Spotlight like any other file item. Right-clicking the workflow name at the top of the Automator workflow window will also show you a path popup to remind you where it was put.

  • Where are Automator scripts stored?

    I'm trying to find one I created years ago on my G4 iMac running Mac OS 10.4.11 so I can copy it and install it on my G5 iMac running Mac OS 10.5.8
    I've done a Spotlight search for it and tried to track it down using the alias on the desktop for it.

    Hmmm, I was looking at the Get Info box for the script's icon on the desktop and noticed that the extension is ".app" so I zipped it, copied the zipped file to a flashdrive and installed it on the G5. Unfortunately, Automator on the G5 won't run it because the first step in the script is to Launch iTunes. Automator says that I have the wrong version of iTunes installed and that I need to upgrade iTunes to 4.6 (I have iTunes 10 installed). I guess I'll have to try and start from scratch - I remember it took several hours to get it to work before. I want it to launch iTunes playing a particular song, and then launch an email app. Sounds simple but when I followed the steps in Automator's Help file, it didn't work.

  • Where are Folder Action Automators saved?

    Does anyone know where Folder Action Automators are saved?
    I've created a Folder Action Automator. When I clicked 'Save' I was not presented with a dialog, allowing me to choose where this Automator action is to be saved like I have been for other Automator actions I've created.
    Ideas?
    Thanks

    See if you can see it in /Users/USERNAME/Library/Workflows/Applications/Folder Actions/
    Open the hidden Library via Finder, Go menu (hold alt) and select Library. That will get you into the user Library.
    P.S.
    You can hold cmd + click the file icon in the centre of the documents toolbar to see it's path.

  • Where are printer drivers stored in OS 10.8?

    I am trying to set up a Epson Stylus Photo R3000 as a new printer on OS 10.8. The printer setup locates the printer and automatically selects Epson Stylus R3000 with the notation "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download and add this printer." However, clicking on Add leads eventually to an error message: "Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R3000 because it is not currently available fromthe Software Update server." This result blocks me from setting up the printer.
    I know the driver is part of the Epson driver software package that is installed with OS 10.8. I would like to select it manually. My question is where are printer drivers stored? How do I select a driver?
    Thanks in advance!

    While a bit of a stretch, you can download the entire Epson printer package from Apple and install it. This will include all drivers for all Epson devices as opposed to the one just for your system. The package is 1GB in size, but will include everything supported.
    The package can be downloaded here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398
    This following knowledgebase article says your printer is definitely supported, so the driver should be in that package: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson

  • Where are the .joboptions stored on a Mac for InDesign CC?

    Where are the .joboptions stored on a Mac for InDesign CC?
    I put them in the usual directory:      /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings   .  .  . but they are not seen by InDesign CC.
    . . . Photoshop, Illustrator, Distiller and Acrobat are seeing my custom profiles and any default profiles I removed are not there for those apps.
    Even older versions of all these apps and InDesign 6 and 5 see my custom profiles.
    But InDesign CC only shows the ones shown in the screen shot below:  (High Quality, the PDF/X versions[3], Press and Smallest size)
    I know I can probably do a "Load" profile, but that's not the point and I need to remove the default profiles.
    I'm in a multiple user environment and need to lock down the use of profiles to our companies select few.
    Did a thorough search of the entire Mac and PDF/X- does not even show up.   Any suggestions?     Anyone?    I'm scratchin'  my head at this point.

      This was the correct answer:
           Laubender     Jun 2, 2014 12:18 AM  (in response to Maurice Castelbuono)   
    @Maurizio – the standard settings, the joboption files with the brackets like [PDF/X-1a:2001] are stored inside the inDesign app for InDesign CC 9.2.1.
    The path for these would be:
    /Applications/Adobe InDesign CC.app/Contents/MacOS/Resources/Adobe PDF/settings/mul
    or with a Japanese version of InDesign:
    /Applications/Adobe InDesign CC.app/Contents/MacOS/Resources/Adobe PDF/settings/japan
    If you do a right-click on the InDesign app you can show them with "Show Package Contents" options.
    All other PDF joboptions that you are creating are relative to your current User Library. They are stored in:
    ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings
    Where the tilde sign at the beginning indicates the home of the currently used user.
    You can access ~/Library, if you press the alt key when accessing the "Go To" menu in the Finder. Otherwise it's invisible.

  • Where are the presettings stored exactly?

    Hi everyone
    Where are the presettings stored exactly? They must be safed in some kind of *.ini-File, in the system's registry or at another point.
    We need this information to automate the setup on every working station. Domain solutions as an alternative are unfortunately not possible yet.
    Adobe Distiller Version is 10.1.824
    Thank you.

    The user-specific settings files (editable) are stored in
    %APPDATA%\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings
    The defaults (read-only) are in Acrobat's program folder
    \Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Settings

  • Where are music files stored when playing a song stored in iTunes Match?

    Where are music files stored when playing a song stored in iTunes Match? Instead of clicking the cloud icon and downloading the song, I simply double click the song and it starts playing. Later, I can quite iTunes, come back and not have to wait for the song to buffer. When I go to about on my computer I am told there is 11 gigabytes of music on my computer. Where are those files stored, do they clear themeselves over time, etc...

    but then why does the FAQ state this:
    Does iTunes Match stream or download songs?
    On a computer, any songs stored in iCloud will stream over the air when played, though you can download them at any time by clicking the iCloud download button.
    Do they mean a different computer than the one with the stored music files?  Would be nice if they specified what they mean

  • Where are the profiles stored for Profile Manager.

    Where are the profiles stored for Profile Manager?
    I created a profile attached to a user group and then made the mistake of removing the group without first deleting the profile.
    Now the orphan profile can't be managed (it's no longer visible) and is still being pushed out to users.
    The group I deleted had another group as it's members.
    Example:
    Active Sync User Group was a member of VPN Group.
    VPN Group was deleted (it had the VPN settings payload)
    Profile with VPN settings are still pushed out to Active Sync User Group even though VPN Group no longer exists.
    I'm hoping I can manually remove this profile but I'm thinking it may be contained in Postgres. If that's the case I would appreciate any suggestions/methods to access the database to make modifications.
    Thanks

    The information/data for apps is stored together with the app in both the iPad and in the backup on your computer. When you drop a file in the file sharing section of apps it gets added to the backup and to the iPad. When you delete it it get deleted from the backup and from the iPad.

  • Where are my ebooks stored in mavericks ibooks

    where are my ebooks stored in mavericks ibooks

    Why, oh why????
    Why can't Apple allow us to select custom location for iBooks library, just as we do it with iTunes library???
    I don't want to have 80+ GB of my iBook files moved from iTunes on the separate media volume back to the user folder on the system volume.
    I created a symlink in default location and keep my Ibooks library on the media volume, but it is a temporary and not convenient fix. Every time I launch iBooks it tells me that it can't access library - only after I click on Try Again button it loads the library, but not a complete one, only books purchased through iTunes, it doesn't want to show the rest of my library that is in the same location (and was in iTunes library before).
