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 custom equalizer settings saved on windows pc

Where are iTunes custom equalizer settings saved on my Windows 7 hard drive? I always backup the entire iTunes folder and use that to restore everything after reformatting my hard drive. Everything restores EXCEPT the custom equalizer settings. Which file contains my custom EQ settings, and where is it found?

Go to Edit>Preferences>Presets>Show Lightroom Presets Folder.
These folders are usually (see below) actually in the same folder called 'Lightroom' where your catalog lives.
If you back up the entire 'Lightroom' folder they should be there unless you have elected to put the folder elsewhere.
Either way 'Show Lightroom Presets Folder' takes one there.
You can copy and back it up seperately or as part of the greater 'ightroom folder' back up.

Where are iWeb pages stored/saved?

Hi all. I'm building my first website using iweb. there is one (of only 3 so far) page that is apparently corrupted. whenever i click on that page name in the sidebar, iweb crashes, so i can't delete it using the edit/delete page dialogue.
if i can find where my iweb pages are saved, i'll just go there and then drag the page to the trash....
thanks

The pages do not exist until you publish them. The elements that comprise the pages are stored in the Domain.sites2 file/package that's located in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
Are there any messages in the Console regarding iWeb that might indicate what's causing the problem.
Aside from the above you can try the following: create a new site and drag the two working pages to it. Then click on the first site's folder icon and see if you can delete the entire site. If that works then all you need to do is recreate that one page.
Also be sure to make a backup of the domain file frequently. Saves a lot of rebuilding in case something goes south in that domain file.

Where are the custom skins saved?

Hi,
I created a custom skin.
Is it saved as a file on the file system?
If yes, where can I find it?
Thanks,
Merav.

Hello there,
Here are the steps for mac.
1. Switch to desktop
2. Hold Option Key and click 'Go' Menu
3. Select the Library (Library is hidden by default and that's why we do this)
4. Go to Preferences>Adobe Captivate 6.0>Themes
5. Copy the .ini file which you want to distribute
6. Now, other user should put them in /Gallery/Themes. When they launch captivate it will be automatically copied to preferences folder.
It is not advisable to directly modify the preferences so ask them to place it in themes folder. If you think it is a good idea to include the skin as part of export preferences workflow, then please mail a feature request to [email protected]
Thanks,

Where are Photo Screensaver settings saved?

Hi,
I need to programatically change settings for the Photo Screensaver. The registry keys used in Windows Vista no longer apply in Windows 7. I tried using a folder with an uncommon folder name to point the Photo Screensaver to so that it would be easier to find in the registry. When I do a registry search, the folder name cannot be found. Maybe this is kept in a settings file somewhere instead of the registry?
We use a custom photo deck for our screensaver and it hasn't worked well to put it in the Pictures folder. You'll end up displaying personal photos along with the custom photos. I have been making a folder in Program Files and pointing the screensaver there.
The settings I would like to be able to change are:
Use pictures from: (you browse to the folder that contains your photos)
Slide show speed: (change the transition speed of the photos)
Shuffle pictures: (I would like to be able to check this box so the photos display randomly)
If anyone knows where to find these settings, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share the location of these settings.
Thanks,
Rob

you can use this code

#That string is encoded in Base64, without headers. There is a Windows API that encrypt binary arrays (the PIDL) to Base64, CryptBinaryToString. The dwFlags parameter should be set to CRYPT_STRING_BASE64.
#Our problem is the inverse, given a Base64 string (the encoded PIDL), get the decoded PIDL. There's an API for that, too!, CryptStringToBinary. The dwFlags parameter should also be set to CRYPT_STRING_BASE64.
#I think it is not hard to write a small program that uses those API's (and some more to get a "readable" path from the PIDL); ask in the MSDN forums to get directions if you get stuck.

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 settings and POV saved?

In version 7, Essbase options where saved as named constants in excel. Does anybody know where they are saved with SmartView? I am curious where the options are saved, but also the POV. If a workSHEET is copied, the POV doesn't go with it. If a wordBOOK is copied, they do. That leads me to believe that they are still saved in the excel file (workBOOK), but not inside the workSHEET.
Thanks in advance!

You can copy the POV from a previous sheet by using the "Import Metadata" option.
-Copy a sheet that has your POV already to a new sheet in the workbook.
-Select Hyperion->Import Metadata->Select your book and sheet with the POV you want to copy
-Refresh and the POV should come over
This works for sheets within a single workbook, I don't believe this works between multiple workbooks.

Where are the job options saved?

Hi, everyone,
We work in a writing group that is in several states and we're trying to document our current processes. We'd like to have access to each others job options files but we're not sure where they are located and how they are saved. One group is using FM 9 and another is FM 8, and the job options seem to be different. Is there a way to save the joboptions from FM 9?
Thank you so much for your help.
Susan

Hi Sheila,
Yes, the Distiller joboptions. We are using Distiller 9, 8, and 7 that comes with the Adobe Acrobat software. We are all on Windows XP and 7. I'm not very familiar with the joboptions, so I'm not an expert on how all of this works.
One writer said she is using the PDFX4 2007 job option, which appears to be the default with Framemaker 9. I think these files are hidden and only the customized options can be saved.

Where are my actions?

I just upgraded to CS5 from CS4, and My actions are not in CS5, I tried to find them in my actions folder of CS4 (going through the applicaitons folder and everything), but they are not there either. They are all there and work fine in CS4, but I cannot find them, or figure out how to get them all into CS5.
Please help! Is there any simple way to get them to transfer over to CS5 and make it an easy process?
Thanks for any help!

Open CS4 and save the action sets...then in CS5, load the action sets into CS5. BTW, if you spend a lot of time recording actions it's important that you take the time to also save them out for this and other reasons. Don't let them live ONLY inside of your Photoshop preferences...

Where are my rendered files saved to?

Hi, I have Encore 2.0 and I have a DVD that I have created. I imported AVIs and had Encore encode them to DVD standard but now I would like to back up all the files (the rendered files, not the AVIs).
How can I go about doing this?
Thanks,
S.

Transcoded files are saved to the project folder.

Where are my render files saved?

I have 4 Hard drives in my mac pro. All but the fourth is pretty full and one is my OS and apps. I started a new project on the 4th hard drive. My render files will also be saved on this 4th hard drive. Is that correct? If not where do I change the render file destination? For some reason I was working on this new project on the 4th hard drive and I got a message indicating that I was running out of room on my 3rd hard drive. I was a bit confused by this since this new project was started on the 4th hard drive. Another question is can I delete my old render files from a project but the project still remains entact? It would just have to be rerendered, correct? Thanks for any help you can give. you guys always seem to enlighten my amateur knowlege.
Scott

The 3rd dive will get down to mb's left. I deleted some render files from old projects on the 3rd hard drive so I am back up to 10 gb's. I am not trying to use the 3rd hard drive any more unless I have to access an old aperture library. When I go to the render files of a project, there are 3 files (high quality media, Peaks Data and thumbnail media). Can I delete all these render files without deleting the project or the contents of the project? Thanks again. You have always been a big help.

Where are conditional Actions in CS 6 X ?

According to this Adobe article Photoshop Help | Adding conditional actions | CC, CS6 my Actions Panel menu should contain an item "Insert Conditional".
I would really like to use this feature. My CS 6 X is fully up to date but the Actions Panel menu has no such option on it. So is the article above correct or not? Or am I missing something?
Thank you to anyone who can clarify this for me.

David Mac Do
Conditional actions are not a big deal. In reality they are a one line script built into the fly-out menu and the feature only support a limited number of conditions. To phrase the script in english is a simple one liner
If Document (condition pulldown list) selected is true Play true action in set(selected) else Play false action in set (selected). Actions do not need to be select for both true and false. One selection may do what is needed.
All three supported Photoshop supported scripting languages have support for an "if" statement.
A javascript was posted years ago "Siva's Photoshop Conditional Action.jsx" do a serach.
Actions can use scripts and scripts can do actions
example
if (activeDocument.height > activeDocument.width) doAction("Rotate", "MyActionSet"); // rotate portraits
