Where are my presets gone?

Current LR3 user (3.6) on windows. I store all my presets with the catalog.
Bought LR4 installed, and then migrated my catalog to LR4 version (it created a copy of the catalog with new name).
But I don't see any of my presets migrate to LR4, import presets, Metadata presets, printing presets, file renaming presets. None of them are visible in LR4.
I close LR4, open LR3 and they're all there.
So how do I transfer all my user presets from LR3 to LR4?
thanks

Hi,
When you check the option "store presets with catalog", then the presets are saved in lightroom settings folder which is placed in the location where the catalog is located. In this case Presets are not saved in the default location i.e, C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom.. (Here Appdata is hidden folder)
Hence, when we try to use the LR 3 catalog in LR 4, then in the process of upgrading the catalog, the presets are not found by LR 4 in the default location and thats the reason there will be no presets available in LR 4.
But if the option "store presets with catalog" is unchecked, then after conversion and upgradation of the catalog, all the presets will be available in LR 4 with all the settings that wrere in LR 3
There are few modifications in the develop module in LR 4, so there wil be exclamation mark at the bottom right corner of the image in develop module, when you click that it will give option to update the process version , after updating the process version , the new settings and sliders will be visible
So if you want to use the old process version then new settings and sliders will not be available
NOTE : If a Preset was created with Process 2010, then LR4 will use it with Process 2010.  If you change the image to Process 2012, then you move away from the preset adjustment parameters and you no longer are using the preset.  So, in summary, you can still use the LR3 Presets, but you lose any new LR4 features and functionality.  You can start with a preset from LR3, change the process to Process 2012 and tweak the image adjustment parameters to your satisfaction and then save that as a new preset.  The result would be an upgraded version of your old preset.

  • Where are Print Presets in Photoshop (CC 2014)?

    Where are print presets in Photoshop?  (I'm using CC 2014 but the question applies to earlier versions as well.)
    I don't see them anywhere.
    Illustrator has had them for an eternity -- where you can set paper size, printer type, color settings, magnification, etc.
    Where is the same functionality for Photoshop?  And if it doesn't exist -- why not? It makes no sense.

    Yes they are different apps -- one does raster, one does vector - but they share the need to allowing printing from time to time, and there's no reason why the printing interface should be radically different.
    Unquestionably, Print Presets would be very useful in Photoshop.
    I know where all the settings are -- I want to have a preset so I don't have to keep setting the color management and magnification and everything else each time I want to output to a particular printer.

    Please Help me !!

    You do not specify, but I'm guessing that you looked in User>Library>Application Support>Logic and found empty folders.
    Instead, go to HD>Library>Application Support>Logic.

  • Where are Print Presets located?

    In 10.4.9 there are 2 methods for creating Print Presets. I have used the wrong method and need to delete a preset very badly. Where are these located? Normal ly the field in question says "Custom" or "Default"... I have no problem deleting from the preset field wth commands in it (save, save as..., delete) it's the other one that I need to remove from.
    When I hit "Apple-P" it's the top field. Somehow I got a printer preset in there! Help!

    Hey thanks... nice try, but that's not the one. That file contains the normal print presets that can be deleted by using the "delete" item in the menu.
    I noticed that there are several other files of interest in the library you mentioned. Hmmmm.
    I have a screen capture of the menu in question if there's any way to show it to you, let me know.
    Thanks again.

  • Where are my backups gone?

    Hi!
    Today I upgrade my MacBook Pro to 10.6.2. First I manually did a last Time Machine backup to my always attached Time Machine Volume. Then I deleted my complete disk (BIG, big, mistake!) and did a fresh install of Mac OS X.
    I then used Time Machine to recover my data from the latest backup, which is from January 9th, 2010! But then I realized that the latest data recovered is dated October 26th, 2009! Now I am missing all my pictures, e-mails and bought iTunes-Music, Mobile Applications for my iPod and some podcasts which I put on my hard disk between October 26th and yesterday.
    Browsing the Time Machine Volume there are some files dated December something, 2009, but all my mailboxes are dated October 26th, 2009! There is lot a free space on the Time Machine Volume left, so where the f*ck are my backups? Time Machine always completed successfully, what am I doing wrong?
    This is very bad, because photos can't be recovered and I am also missing some e-mails with software license keys...
    Regards, a ****** Mac user... :-/

    I'll give you some more, in-depth information:
    Using Terminal I browse to "/Volumes/Time Machine-Backups/Backups.backupdb/MacBook", there are lots of directories starting "2009-10-15-235832", followed by "2009-10-26-233742" and the other directories for the weekly, daily and hourly kept Time Machine backups. "Latest" is linked to "2010-01-09-143122" (that's exactly the time I did the last backup before wiping my disk).
    In "Latest" I find "MacBook" and then all my directories. So I "cd" to: "Users/<myname>/Library". Lets compare the listings of two directories:
    ls -ltr "Mail Downloads": There are some e-mail attachments I got, and the latest files are dated dated 2009-12-21 -- just as expected.
    ls -ltr "Mail/Mailboxes/<some-recent-changed-mailbox>/Messages": The latest files are dated 2009-10-15 -- that's the date of the first full backup I took!
    As you can see, I did not exclude the Mail directory:
    $ grep <myname> "/Volumes/Time Machine-Backups/Backups.backupdb/MacBook/Latest/.exclusions.plist"
    <string>/Users/<myname>/Downloads</string>
    <string>/Users/<myname>/Temp</string>
    So -- why didn't Time Machine backed up my recent data, although Time machine told me it did?
    Any suggestions welcome.
    Regards, a still frustrated Mac user.

  • Where are my music gone?

    Since the last update of the IOS and iTunes, most of my music are gone, why is that? How I retrieve them back? Is it through the iCloud? And I'm not sure the back up wouldn't work either.
    Luckily, I have an old gene 2 iPod with all of the the music that I have. And I'm afraid that I might lose them on the iPod too. That I'll go direct to the technician at the store for that.

  • Where are Lightroom presets found in Finder on my Mac?

    I recently had to wipe my hard drive clean and start over.  Before this I had backed up my files on an external drive.  I have reinstalled Lightroom 5, but now I want to restore all my presents.  When I go to Time Machine where do I find those presets so I can restore them?

  • Where are my presets?!

    my presets are not showing up in my mixer channel strip settings.
    screen shot: http://i41.tinypic.com/szkkco.jpg
    any ideas how i can get/find them?

    If they are not showing up, it might be because your preferences are corrupt...
    Move your current preferences to your desktop (because they contain your current key commands) and rebuild them.....this could be very simple or complicated depending upon how much you tweak your preferences
    Your preferences are a file called "com.apple.logic.pro.plist" in the Users > Library > Preferences folder
    Quit logic, move the preferences to the desktop, open logic and see if the presets show up, if they don't then put the preferences back and try something else....

  • Where are my pictures gone ios7

    Since I have done the iOS7 update for my 4S all picures I have taken with my iPhone are gone, somhow.
    The thing is, the phone said that there are a number of pictures on the phone, but I can´t see them in the picture overview. Instead of the mini pictures the iPhone shows only some greyed out spacers.
    Any idea?

  • Where are the photos gone? Help!

    Hi, maybe this is a known topic, but stilll...
    I have iPhoto 7.1.1
    I wanted to have some photos in a separate iPhoto library
    I duplicated the actual iPhoto Library
    I opened the original iPhoto Library and deleted the some photos and web gallery albums
    Then I opened the copy of the iPhoto Library. It isempty!
    Then I opened a backup of the original iPhoto Library on an external volume. This was empty too!
    The same gose for anothe iPhoto Library I used to order calendars, it is now empty.
    How can I recover the original Photos?
    Thanks,
    Andre

    Andre:
    How did you duplicate your original library? Open the duplicate library package like this, look inside the Originals folder and see if your photos are there.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Content Disks - Where Are The Presets?

    I have all of the content disks for Logic Pro 8, but I don't want to install everything. It takes too long and takes up too much space, and I don't need all of music beds and whatnot.
    I mostly want the keyboard presets - pianos, organs, synths and stuff like that.
    Is it possible to install just the presets I mentioned? On which disks are they found?
    Thanks.

    You're welcome.
    Basicallyou should install everything called *... instruments* and nothing called *Apple Loops.* Sound effects are, well, sound effects: the +"Boom!" "peeeep," "klang!" "clapclapclapclap!" "rhubarbrhubarbrhubarb?"+ sort of thingies... you decide if you need those.

  • HT201272 where are my audiobooks gone?

    I had audiobooks on my iPod touch.
    I connencted it to my new MacBook Air, and now I no longer have them!.

    Was that the first time that you had connected the iPod to that computer ? If they are no longer on your iPod then have they copied over to the Books part of your Mac's iTunes librrary, or do you have a copy of them on an old computer and/or a backup ? Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, but if you don'thave a copy of them anywhere then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    If you're in the US, download the new iTunes 10.3 on your computer, go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the new Purchases link under the Quick Links. The new iTunes in the Cloud service, currently in beta as part of iCloud, may allow you to re-download your purchased tracks.
