Where are display quality pref's in CS6 AI?

What happened to the display quality preference in AI CS6? I've got banding in a blend on screen, and can't tell if it's artifact of display or truly a problem with the blend.

But my question was about rendering of gradients, not necessarily in the EPS file format.
That sounds different in #2.
Anyway: Banding on screen will not necessarily mean banding in print. Talk to your print service provider, because it depends on their equipment and of course on how exactly your stuff is printed. There are lots of different techniques and machines around.

Where are the default libraries for Encore CS6 Creative Cloud? I just installed, opened a new project and don't see any like I had with previous versions. Is there a separate install for this, was it removed from CS6 or was it removed from CS6 Creative Cloud?

Where are the finder prefs located?

Finder prefs used to be located in Library>Prefs>com.apple.plist.
Where are they located in Lion......don't see them in the above location?

Icons on my Finder toolbar are about 1/3 smaller than they were in 10.6. Display resolution is the same as before.
Below is my Finder bar in 10.6 and underneath it is my Fiinder bar in 10.7. The outline (snapshot) area of the toolbars are the same in both pics. Repairing the permissions fix'd the problem for about an hour yesterday but then it reverted back.
I just noticed that the screenshots don't really show anything.....take my word for it, the icons are smaller. Yes, I'm looking for the Finder plist. When I go to the Prefs folder I don't see com.apple.finder.plist.

Where are the Gradient color presets in CS6?

Hi,
I've gone from CS4 to CS6 and when using the Gradient tool, there used to be a properties box that you could open with a whole list of preset color gradients to choose from, i used to use the 'Black - White' one all the time, which kinda blurred the edges, made a transparent gradient and allowed, for want of a better word, montages to be created easily, but now this function seems to have gone. Is it hiding somewhere that I don't know about? Or alternatively, can someone advise me on how to get the same effect that the Black White Preset used to give me?
Thanks a lot
Jules

Yeah, those gradients are gone in CS6. On the one hand, most of them were pretty cheesy; on the other hand, it's a bit surprising they took away those presets but still didn't offer users a simple way to save gradients.
One way that you can save gradients is as Styles. As an experiment, I actually did this one day for the classic Fireworks gradients. Once created, styles can be saved as a library, where you can call on them from within any FW document.
Another way to quickly create a black and white gradient is by setting the fill and/or stroke colors, which are the basis of gradients. You can reset the default fill and stroke colors within the Tools panel. However, this can be tricky, at times, depending on what objects are selected and what type of fill they already have; it can be easy to accidentally apply a stroke to an object this way. Alternatively, if Stroke is set to None, then setting Fill to Black will result in a black and white gradient when you switch to a gradient Fill type.

Where are Core Audio prefs

Hi
I'm just wondering where core audio preferences are, as I doing an upgrade and have backed up my library and users, but cannot see where core audio prefs are ?

What do you mean by "Core Audio Preferences"..?
Are you talking about Logic preferences, or OSX audio related stuff? (largely dealt with by the Audio MIDI Setup Utility..) This stuff is all over the place - it depends what audio, MIDI drivers you have installed, whether you've setup aggregate devices and so on...

Where are all Mail Pref files ?

Hello,
my hd crash last week, i bought e new one and install a new OS.
Today my apple reseller succeded in recovering all my files of my old disk.
Now i would like to copy all Mail Pref files into the right place so i can recover my Mail like one week ago. I know that somes of the files are in Users>Me>Library>Mail but it's not enought my accounts are not set up !
I've also .emlx files in .mbox folders that i want to add to my Mail software, but i didn't succeed
Somebody can guide me in the dark area of Mail
Thx a lot

Hello Anterak.
The other participants have already answered the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist part.
I've also .emlx files in .mbox folders that i want
to add to my Mail software, but i didn't succeed
Could you please be more precise about this? You should be able to import these into Mail by doing File > Import Mailboxes, choosing Mail for Mac OS X, and following the instructions. Note that Mail wants you to select the folder that contains the *.mbox folders, rather than the *.mbox folders themselves.

Help, where are the render preferences in Adobe Photoshop CS6

Okay, I admitt, .... I am an idiot that is new to Adobe Photoshop.
But help the new girl out, here.... Please...
Where are the render preferences in Adobe Photoshop Extended CS6.
I searched Adobe Help in Dutch already but they point me towards options that doesn't excist.
Maybe they were there in Adobe CS5 and I am reading an older version of the documentation...
But in CS6 I can only find the option Render and no Render Preferences...
Thanks !!

Adobe changed the way video is rendered in CS6. Adobe Media Encoder in now used in CS6 only a subset of the Adobe's full Adobe Media Encoder is included in CS6 is a dll. I do not think you can add new Rendering Presets however you can change some setting when you use the supplied Reddening Presets. Perhaps if you have the Adobe suite and have the full Adobe Media Encoder you can create some presets and add them to Photoshop Rendering presets. I seem some compliants about CS6 Quicktime rendering presets lack the power of CS5. The Rendering presets seem to be stored in sub folders in "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Presets\Video\Adobe Media Encoder" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets\Video\Adobe Media Encoder"

Apple says Reminders works with Outlook, but I can't find where the lists are displayed in Office or Outlook once they are synced.

Apple says Reminders works with Outlook, but I can't find where the lists are displayed in Office or Outlook once they are synced. Any suggestions?

I'll guess you've already discovered the answer to this, but just in case:
Reminders works with Outlook tasks by syncing with iCloud, or through Exchange. You can't sync iOS Reminders with Outlook Tasks via USB/iTunes (like you can do with Notes, Calendar, Contacts).
So the marketing material on Reminders is a little misleading in that it's not specific enough -- there is no syncing without one of those intermediary systems mentioned above.
On a side note, syncing Tasks/Reminders via iCloud is not very good in my opinion:
Requires that you sync to the cloud, even if you have no other use for storing personal data in the cloud.
Requires that the iCloud Control Panel be installed on your PC (not sure about Mac).
After syncing, you'll find new Calendar and Task groups called "iCloud" have been created in Outlook. The calendar groups appear to be created even if you're only syncing Tasks/Remminders (not sure why).
Reminders are stored in the new group (noted above) called "iCloud" rather than in your default Tasks group. This seems to me to be a sort of "parallel" sync, rather than a true sync with Outlook. There are oter implications of your synced tasks being in the new group that I won't go into here, but you can search the interwebs to learn more.
In my own case, I tried iCloud syncing, decided that I didn't like it for the reasons stated above, and then uninstalled (Control Panel and new Outlook groups) with no apparent ill effects.
Though I don't guarantee you'll have the same results, it might be worth a try to see if it suits your purposes.

Ps CS6 Request: User control over display quality versus performance (modified request)

It would be great if there was user control of the zoom threshold at which display quality is sacrificed for performance.
I mean the threshold which determines the maintaining of bit-depth in the calculation of the composite which is displayed when working with 16-bit documents, and the accuracy of displayed layer effects in documents with any bit-depth.
The threshold currently seems to be approx 64% zoom - not much of a zoom out when dealing with large images destined for print.
Please provide a control for that threshold in Preferences > Performance.

Thank you for posting, conroy. I have an example of the inconvenient effects of Photoshop CS6 allowing the zoomed-out composite to be innaccurate.
Here's a real-world application for everyone to see.
In my below example you're not seeing a 16-bit doc, just 8-bit, BTW.
Top C has Layer Styles. Bottom C is a copy that's been merged with a blank layer, to effectively "collapse" it's Layer Styles into a normal single pixel layer.
The difference is staggering. This file is a massize 28x36 300DPI (8,400px X 10,800px) poster.
So on something like this, while working and tweaking everything you work worked zoomed out so you see enough of the document to be able monitor it's evolution.
I was working at 25% zoom (depisted above) for a quite a while. Got everything good, but then zoomed in only to see that each letter actually looked like pretty bad compared to what the zoomed composite was telling me.
I had to revise all letters.
For hi-res print I guess I better get used to zooming in and out constantly, so I know what to trust.
I wonder if this issue will ever be rectified. Like Conroy suggests, maybe a setting that allows users to voluntarily sacrifice performance in favor of a more accurate composite?

Where are Aperture Prefs in Lion

I have always had an intermittent porblem when i try to import pictures into Aperture it will not recognize any picture to import regardless of what format they are in. The way around this is to trash the Prefs from the Preferences folder and start again ....... but where are the prefs now ? i can;t find them in Lion....
Any ideas please?
Thx
John

OK, I have found the answer to my question.
In Lion the user Library folder is hidden (not sure why) take a look at this link for an explanation of how to find it:
http://eve-search.com/thread/1554319/page/1
Once you have the Pref folder the aperture prefs are there
But wish Apple would fix the problem within Aperture, why it cannot recognise pictures to import is a mystery and very frustrating.

Where are playlist prefs contained?

I am migrating my library from a G5 to a Mac Pro. Where are all my playlist, iPod sync & other preferences stored, so that I may move them over.
Thanks

Thanks. The other comp is running on the network and they are not connected via firewire or the like. I didn't know this Migration Assistant existed. I'd still prefer to pick and choose what I bring over, maybe this tool does it. What I don't want to do is bring over all the old clutter - just the exact files I need.
Thanks, I'll check it out though!

You would need to find a 3rd party authorized vender who may be installing some sort of matte display. Or there are kits on the market to apply a matte finish to your display. AFAIK, all Macs have glossy finished displays.

Where are the pictures found in the Adobe Photoshop 10 organizer?

Nov. 29, I had my computer repaired from a trojan, & I figured out that everything i've done since Sept. 13th was gone because when the computer guy was fixing it, he tried to put in the new MicroSD card reader, but he had to put an old one back in (from Sept.) as the new one had wrong connections.
Then, when he started the PC he only had the C drive (& my documents and pictures are on the A drive). He turned it off and realized he accidentally disconnected one of the mirror hard drives for Drive A. He had to turn it off and open it again and reconnect the cable that was disconnected.
During that moment perhaps a line in the drive had become corrupted. So, I restored through Carbonite, hoping I'd get back almost everything (or at least whatever was done being backed up). However, I lost quite a few pictures.
Tuesday, however, I noticed that the pictures I lost were imported into the organizer for Adobe Photoshop 10, which is on the C drive, so I'm hoping the pictures are still there, even if they are thumbnails (I assume they would be)! But where are the pictures found in the Adobe Photoshop 10 organizer? I assume in a folder somewhere? Am I able to copy them? (A low quality image, is better than no image!)

The thumbnail cache is separate and lives in the system files.
You could try a new catalog - it doesn’t involve any duplication.
Click: File >> Catalog
Click the New button
Give your catalog a name e.g. My Catalog2 (or whatever you prefer)
Check the box Import Free Music - that will bring in the Adobe MP3 tracks used in slideshows
Then click OK
When the new blank catalog opens click: File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files & Folders
Navigate to your root folder (normally Pictures or My Pictures or wherever you put your photos) then press Ctrl+A to select all sub folders or make sure the checkbox is marked.
Click Open or Get Media
Wait for Elements to complete the import, accept all keyword suggestions (select all) and then wait for thumbnails to finish generating.
N.B. You may not get all the metadata (keywords etc) but in view of the problems you have had it may be your best hope.

Terrible display quality on Zoom Out

Just upgraded to PS Elements 9. In most view>zoom levels (including the presets "Fit On Screen" and "Fill Screen"), the images display terribly pixelated on the screen. I understand that zooms in excess of 100% will naturally pixelate, but I have this problem at almost every zoom ratio UNDER 100% as well. Only a few "benchmark" zoom levels (like, 25%, for example) display nice and sharp. Of course, 100% displays fine, too. All other zoom levels (whether manually-entered or using the preset zoom levels) are highly pixelated. I didn't have this problem in my old PSE2.
Is there a setting somewhere I can use to improve the display quality of zoomed images?
Thanks.

If your not seeing the pixelation at 25%, 50% or 100% then there's probably nothing you can
change. I suspect if you were to open the images in pse2 and view them at the exact same
viewing percent, then the same thing would happen.
Pse2 had more screen space for displaying images so they may have been bigger
and appeared less pixelated. For example in pse2, most of my images are displayed at 50%
when opened, where as pse9 displays them around 47% which appears pixelated until
set to 50% view.
