Where are the system extensions in Tiger?

In Mac OS 7-9 system extensions and control pannels were easy to find. Where are they in OSX?
John

John,
The Preference Pane package files are located in the following folders: Macintosh HD/System/Library/PreferencePanes and Macintosh HD/Library/PreferencePanes
Having specified their location, I would add the caveat that I do not endorse altering the files or moving them to another location.

Where are the ATI drivers in Tiger?

When ATI says the drivers/plug-ins for its graphics cards are preinstalled in Tiger, does that mean they're not even searchable? I've run Spotlight for ATI, driver, plugin, Radeon...etc., with no results.

The drivers are located in the folder /System/Library/Extensions/ on your hard disk; this folder isn't searched by Spotlight.

Where are the system preferences for internet access?

I had to re-install 10.6.2 with a disk formatting... all went well and I manage to go online .
But I notice that my old system preferences are not back in place... I don't have all the connection settings I used to have and in which I had a manual IP address for a school ethernet network connection.
Where can I find them?
Can I just drag them back into my computer?
Thanks for your help.

If you have a backup of your entire previous system, you could try looking at /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.network.identification.plist . I'm not 100% sure that's where the information would be stored, but it looks promising. If you think you would recognize the IP address when you see it, open that file from your backup with a text editor and scan through for the IP address. Then enter it in your network settings.
If you don't think you'd know what you were looking at, you could try moving that file from the backup to the new system, but I'd take some precautions. Move the newer copy of that file to the desktop temporarily, then restart and see how things work. If anything goes wonky, put it back, replacing the older file. If after a few days all is well, trash it.

I want to use the default Apple desktop pictures but also add my own. Where are the system desktop pictures located?

I like the default images Apple provides for the desktop but would like to add my own. I have desktop pictures set to change randomly every minute. Is there a way for me to add my own images to the categories (like 'Plants' or 'Nature') that are already in the Desktop and Screen Saver preference panel?
Thanks!

Where are the Extensions for Creative Suite 4?

it's all in the title, where are the Extensions for Creative Suite 4? CS4 or CS3 or AS2 or AS3...

Hi Patricia,
In order to support the new Omniture workflows, we had to use some new CSXS features and Flash Pro features that were implemented in CS5 only for these extensions to work. Specifically, in Flash Pro, to enable new communication workflows between the design view and CSXS panels, we've introduced several new events that are triggered from design view to update the panels.
We cannot backport these events to CS4, as this would be a very costly endeavor with limited applicability. In order to use the extensions, we recommend you moving to CS5. Aside from the extensions, you'll get also more than 250 great features, more speed, etc.
Regarding the AS2 or AS3 support - we have both for the Flash Pro Test&Target extension, and we only support AS3 for the SiteCatalyst extension.
I hope this helps,
Sincerely,
Alexandru

Where are the email digests?

Where are the email digests?
Or aren't there any any more?
Or am I just not understanding how to get a digest from a particular forum?

Hey Dave,
Thanks for getting back to me. I follow where you are coming from now.
First, I don't think I am contradicting myself in my liking of the forum layout yet being upset about the ommission of what I consider an absolutely crucial feature - the daily digest of a group - IMO.
As such while the forum is still "useable" (and I am glad to see the final integration of the Macromedia and Adobe forums). Previousely I was never able to get a Dreamweaver or Flash digest sent to me daily due to the incompatabilities between the forum software. They may have been on the same page, but they were two different systems! So when I saw that the new forum was up I went in and happily subscribed to forums such as the Dreamweaver and Flash groups expecting a daily digest.
Because I did not read and because I assumed Adobe would not be arrogant enought to drop the digest feature (without consulting users), within an hour or two my mailbox was flooded with e-mails! That may be the way some people like to receive their information, but it is not for me! BTW, the only thread I am subscribed to is this one!
So now not only am I unable to get a new Daily Digest of Dreamweaver, Flash etc, but my old Digests of Premiere, After Effects, Encore etc are history! And even though I think the forums are relatively well designed and laid out compared to the many other forums out there. I do not have the time or inclination to go trolling through group after group and topic after topic!
So like you, I am not happy with Adobe and say to them - your forums are too extensive for users to have to endlessly search through group after group and topic after topic to keep up-to-date with the information they need. You have made it harder to use than ever. And like Dave says, you are alientating not just expert users, but all users - who are the lifeblood of these forums and many have spent countless hours providing a valuable contribution and support to others (like myself)!! These forums have been invaluable especially when you have released buggy products with issues as users can provide feedback, solutions and workarounds much quicker than your Adobe Updater.
Oh, BTW Dave, I am curious, what are your other showstopper issues with the forum besides the lack of a digest? I have just plain not used the forums whatsoever (besides this topic) since the changeover and I am wondering what an expert user like you has found out.
Cheers,
Martin

Where are the epson drivers for Mavericks for the artisan 835

Well, I have this printer too, and I get the following response from the System Prefs Printers and Scanners when I select to add this printer:
"The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer’s manufacturer for the latest software."
When you go to the Epson website for this particular printer it says:
"The latest drivers for this product are available only via Apple's Software Update."
And finally, when you go to Software Update it says: "No updates available"
I second OMT8.
Yes, the driver file at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398 allowed me to finally install my printer, but does Apple have _any idea_ how long it takes to download a 1.08GB file over a 1.5mbps DSL connection?
Never mind how much of my pricey new SSD is being consumed by the resulting 1.80GB of driver files all for _one_ printer driver that should maybe occupy 200K?
Or that the primary article on OS X printer drivers (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669) -- which does indicate that the Artisan 830 is supported -- does not mention or link to the driver file that's needed to make it work?
Or what a complete violation of Apple's "it just works" gestalt it is to be confronted with the above Catch-22 and to have to search the web and then go through all of the above to make a new laptop talk to a two-year-old printer?
Yes, my printer now works, and yes, Apple's Support Communities were instrumental in getting to this point. But spending all morning (plus download time) getting a printer driver installed tastes way too much like I paid for Apple and got Microsquish.

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.

Where are the emoticons in Mac Mail?

Where are the emoticons in Mac Mail 5.2 on OS 10.7.3?

I used colon parentheses with the smiley emoticon which is the normal code for a smiley. It works on this forum. I used to type these in all the time on Eudora so I'm familiar with the different combinations.
I added a space after it in the system preferences/language popup and sent myself another letter with it included and it still doesn't work in Mac mail (I added a space before and after it in MacMail). but it does work in TextEdit now.
Yes, "use symbol and text substution" is clicked.
The checkbox is ticked in the replace box; in the next box is the colon/parentheses with a space, and then the smiley in the next box.
Thanks for trying to help.

(261936172) Q general Where are the Web Service source files?

Q <general> Where are the source files for a Web Service created
with WebLogic Workshop stored? How do I deploy the Web Service
on a different WebLogic Server? Is there a way to bundle the
Web Service project files manually to distribute them?
Is there a way to configure the directory where Workshop stores
the files?
ANSWER: (by Adam Fitzgerald, [email protected]) The .jws files are stored
in the project folder. This can be located on a local system, although by default
they are in c:\bea\wlserver700b\sample\workshop\applications. The Web Service
structure is understood by WLS 7.0 so by archiving the appropriate folder you
can transfer the Web Service in its entirety from one deployment to another.

Where are the audio files located?

You know how when your video source is missing, it shows that ! with a yellow triangle around it? Then, when you hover over the !, it shows you where iMovie expected to find the video, and then you can just move the video there and it's fixed. But for audio, it doesn't show you where it is supposed to be located when you hover over the ! in the audio file (music green bar).
So, where are the music files supposed to be located so that it can find them?
Thanks!

To the best of my knowledge, iMovie simply links to the music file from wherever it is located in your system. That could be the iTunes Library, your Desktop, an external drive, or other places. So if you move the music to a different location, I assume that iMovie will lose track of it. iMovie doesn't actually import the music to the project - it's just referencing it (as far as I'm aware).
If you know the name of the track (or tracks, or artists), try doing a search both within iTunes and on your hard drive using Spotlight. If found, the best solution is probably to drag it again into your project, then do the necessary edits if applicable.
Note that, in iMovie the music tracks are identified by song name - it's shown at the beginning of the green audio bar. So the songs shouldn't be too difficult to track down. It's just a pain having to re-instate them.

Where's the "System Temp" probe? (K8T-Neo)

Where is the "system temp" probe located, and what does this measure? I've seen other posts asking this question and I can't see a definitive answer.
The reason I ask is this:
I've got a nice copper Zalman heatsink that keeps my cpu cool, around 30 idle and 40-45 under load. The "system temperature" is always hotter than the cpu, at least 40 and can get up to 50. I stick my hand in the case and the air is no where near that hot, so I figure its reading the temp of some chip on the board, ie the northbridge (ok I know its not really the nb, but lets just call it that.)
I stuck a 4cm fan on the stock passive nb heatsink and this had very little affect on the "system temp." So either that temp probe is not on the nb or the stock heatsink is just lame. Anyone got any ides?
Another question --- what does the V-Link DATA 2X bios setting do? I've read that enabling it greatly improves "system performance." But when I disable the SATA controller (as I have no SATA drives) the V-Link option becomes greyed-out, like the v-link only has to do with SATA. Does it affect anything if I'm not using SATA?
Scott

Hi
The Winbond chip at top of board above Dimms and Bios monitors the temp, if there is hot air coming from the HDD bays, as chip is right under end of drive as a rule, just where all the cables and things are most likely to interupt air flow. it can affect the temps. Its a good idea to direct air from a fan to that point.
Cheers
