Where are the programs???

im kinda new at these kinda computers and used to using microsoft pc's... where are the programs on these computers... i.e: typing programs, games, or anything of that nature,, thanks..

Hi again ozzman, Programs are called applications or apps and they are in the applications folder. To find this open a 'Finder' window, (that square icon with a face in it on your dock). Text edit is a basic word processor, there is a more sophisticated one in Appleworks. If you're not sure what anything is, just double click it and it will open. (Single click from the dock) If it's not what you were looking for press 'Apple' + 'Q'. to close it. Unlike Windows just clicking on the red X doesn't quit the app, it just closes the window leaving the app running.
Games are in the app folder too.
Have fun!

I bought a membership today. Where are the programs?

I bought a memberhsip.
I have the Adobe Application Manager.
I open my account.
I click on download, I have a membership for all the apps, but I'm most interested in Photoshop.
When I click on Photoshop, the Application Manager opens and tells me that all my programs are up to date.
The up-to-date programs show Photoshop CS6.
What do I do now?
Seriously. This is supposed to be straightforward and easy.
Please help me.
I don't remember if this was at the top of my screen. I don't think it was.
This is what my Application Manager looks like.
These are new programs. Acrobat updated. I had Acrobat X, now it's XI. I never had the Creative Cloud Connection or the Touch App Plugin.
Muse won't open.
Photoshop doesn't have the new features.
What is happening?

Thanks for taking the time to answer.
I am on Windows 8, using a Windows 7 desktop interface. I can't get used to the new one, so it looks the same as yours.
I go to all programs and this is what I see, some of the new programs are there, but not Photoshop.
This is the only Photoshop that I see:
I'm watching a video by Terry White. This is why I know I don't have the right version. The new version has a Sync Settings in Preferences and mine doesn't. It doesn't have the new sharpener and it doesn't have the aspect ratio corrector. We won't talk about the shutter stabilaizer.
What do you think I should do next?

When using Creative Cloud (CC) with yearly subscription where are the programs downloaded to?

Hello to All. I'm ignorant of this and need to learn Adobe. I installed the CC on my tablet. When I install any of the programs (Ps, Lr, etc.), are these installing to the cloud or on my tablet's hard drive? If hard drive, I think I will run out of space. In my head I envision the CC as the gateway to the apps in the cloud this leaving the sizable programs in the cloud. Please let me know; I will truly appreciate it. Have a super day! ~ Karen (krkos)

Thank you, Mylenium. So, to clarify, when I choose one of the programs to download, the complete program downloads onto my hard drive taking up whatever xx GB it takes, and if i want to use that same program on one of my other devices, I have to install it there too?

Why have all my previous "My Ratings" (stars) have been removed and Smart Albums(i.e. 5 star rating in past year) virtually destroyed in the update to the new Photos program? Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ?

Upon updating to the new Photos program, all the previous "My Ratings" (1-5 stars) for photos have been removed. Why? My "Smart Albums" using the "My Ratings", i.e. photos with a 5 star rating within the past year, have been virtually destroyed in the update. The updates "modified" Smart
Album deleted the "My Ratings" parameter, retained the Date parameter so now Smart Album includes every photo within the date range parameter. Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ? It appears they have been removed. If so, why ?

Photos doesn't have true star ratings.
However, when photos are migrated from iPhoto or Aperture to Photos, they will have keywords assigned, like "1 star" or "5 stars". You can create smart albums based on these keywords.
You can also assign keyboard shortcuts so if you're in the keyword pane and type 1, it will assign the "1 star" keyword.

HT2500 Where are the files of past mail kept in the Mail program.

I want to do an additional backup of my email on Mail. Where are the files of stored past mails kept? In the same Mail.app?
Thanks
Gil

Hi Gil,
On Mail...
First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
(Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist

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"

Where are the videos taken by iphone stored in iphoto?

I've taken a number of videos and still photos with my iphoto but only the still photos appear in Iphoto. Where are the visdeos stored and how can I retrieve them?

How are you moving the photos from your Phone to iPhoto?
What version of iPhoto?
By default everything you import into iPhoto is stored in the iphoto library - What do you mean by "how do I retreive" them?
To use videos in iMovie launch imovie and import the videos to iMovie
To use them with other programs select them in iPhoto and export with kind = original (see the user tip on exporting for more information on the current options in exporting)
What exactly are you haveing problesm with and what exactly do you want to accomplish?

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 the official microsoft ISO's for windows 10 preview?

Hi All,
Where are the official Microsoft ISO's for Windows 10, 10051 and 10056 preview? They are all over the web, but I don't trust them unless they comes from Microsoft itself.
Many thanks,
-T

To ToddAndMargo,
RE : Is there a way to manually go to Windows Updates and manually download a particular file
No. All updates will be downloaded and installed automatically. You don't get to choose which to install and which to decline.
RE : And I can't find 10049's ISO either (from Microsoft).
As of now, the only most current ISO available is for build 10041. Build 10049 ISO is not yet available.
When build 10049 is released from Slow ring, usually it is also the time its ISO will be released.
RE: ESD file. How?
One cannot download an esd file of build 10049 from Windows Update.
You download and install the entire build 10049 via Windows Update. When it is done, you can then find its Installed.esd file from RecoveryImage folder and use it to manually create an ISO fie. You will need a specific program to create an ISO from Esd.
You might ask " why do I need an ISO fie if the operating system is already installed ?"
Some users are advocates of "clean install". They prefer clean install over upgrade install. Clean install can be done by burning the ISO file into a bootable DVD or an USB with at least 4 GB capacity and use it to install.
You can also use the same media and install in another compatible computer.
It can also serve as an emergency backup incase you need to reinstall.

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

Define "the Aperture files".
Read this concise guide.
The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals". Your Originals are never altered. What went in is what comes out.
Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file. This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture. There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image. Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved. These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original. They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture. "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing". The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple: create them by exporting. Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom. Note that I say "transitioning". You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information. Adobe provides a tool and some instructions. I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database. Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager: that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.
HTH,
Kirby.

PowerPoint parsing into Captivate 8 issues - where are the Adobe personnel to get this right?

In Captivate 5.5 I can import PowerPoint slides without any problems, BUT in Captivate 8 the parsing is TERRIBLE (even in high fidelity) leaving me with this result:
I have checked the size of the PP page vs the size of the Captivate software simulation video. I have imported it into an existing capture, I have started a new PowerPoint project and I have imported it into a new Blank project. Nothing works! The parsing is still terrible.
I have now read a number of Forum posts about problems with importing PP into Captivate 8 - NONE of which had answers.
So my real question here is: where are the actual Adobe staff members to answer this question and FIX THE PROBLEM! I have a contract to make videos for a company and I will lose my contract if I cannot produce good quality work.
This is NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!

Lilybiri
You are a star! Thank you so much for the link.... I will certainly write to them.
And hopefully someone from Adobe management will see this and consider actually paying some of the generous users who contribute so much to this Forum, at least a stipend... Especially as Adobe is being paid good money for the software.
The response that I had to problems with Articulate Storyline is outstandingly good. Yes, they do have a general forum which is quite helpful but when I need specific help, their support is excellent. Eg. At about 1am on New Year's day I had a query about transferring my program from one computer to another. Thinking I would only get an answer a few days later I was really surprised when five minutes later I received an email telling me exactly what to do and inviting me to online chat if I still had a hassle.
I also belong to other Forums for various paid-for software that I use and although many of the people who answer in the space are just fellow users, their super-users (who are always around) are actual developers and are paid by the software provider to help the people who have bought their software.
So why can't the mammoth Adobe do the same?
Cheers
Ann

Where are the PR1.1?

Hi, Nokia! Where is the update to my Nokia N9 that has been out for weeks now? This is not ok, you should again look at Apple! When a update comes all people will get it! Should I once again go back to iPhone and never look back? I love my Nokia N9 but there are many many small bugs on it, if you never will get an update then is time to go away from Nokia... Best regards Thorbjörn

Hi Cjlim, Bugs: Wi-Fi drop outs, sign in problem, lag in the Meego touch system (some apps are mush better), program update doesn't work (if I look in all my download, I can see update for apps), notification when using something else (shows up but some times just a black bar with no info) and so on... Other stuff: Almost no Mac support from computer, where are the updates? DLNA, front camera not in use (clear bug), Vimeo app (Shows up under apps on Nokia website), Fm Radio, low volume and so on... I am no rookie, I know there is some apps and even updates that's coming! I have reset the phone twice and done backups re-enter all info on to accounts! And so on... Best regards Thorbjörn

Where are the diagnostic reports, or why aren't there any?

Hello
I understand that under mavericks, diagnostic reports are supposed to be found either in
/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ (System Diagnostic Reports),
or in
~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports (User Diagnostic Reports).
Unfortunately, even after a number of crashes, they aren't. While in my case, the system DiagnosticReports folder exists, but contains nothing but powerstats, in the user library, not even the folder is there.
So, either they are elsewhere, or they aren't being generated. In the first case, my question would be: Where are the diagnostic reports? In the latter, it would be: Why aren't there any (despite the system crashes)?
(A similar question is to be found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24773940#24773940 , but ended with an open question. I'm starting a new thread, because this old one is marked as answered.)
Thanks a lot.

Where are the tutorial exercise files?

Where are the exercise files referred to in the photoshop tutorials?

Most of the video tutorials on AdobeTV won't have excercise files to go along with the video. If they do, they'll be listed under "Show More Details" in the About This Episode section.
There are a few resources you can use if you'd like to follow tutorials with exercise files to go along with the steps.
Lynda.com is a great resource for learning Photoshop. To have full access to the learning tools you have to buy a subscription, but many of their lessons have accompanying exercise files.
http://blog.fitnyc.edu/technology/2010/11/11/exercise-files-for-lyndacom/
You might also look into Level Up for Photoshop. It's a plugin that you download and open in Photoshop that guides you through step-by-step tutorials within the actual program. All of the exercise files for Level Up are included when you download the plugin.
Hope this helps! Good luck

Where are the programs???
