Where are the users login items physically located?
The physical login item process could be located any where. Your ~/Library/Preferences/loginwindow.plist initiates login applications or processes.

Where are the MetaData Templates located in PS C6 on a Mac?

Where are the MetaData Templates located in PS C6 on a Mac that you can add your contact and copyright information to?
On a Windows machine they are located in Owner/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/XMP. I have some templates that I want to copy from a Windows laptop over to a Macbook Pro.
Thanks, Bill

I’m on Mac OS 10.6.8 and there it seems to be
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Metadata Templates
I think as of OS 10.7 Macintosh hides the Library, but one can get there by alt-clicking the Go-menu and selecting it from there … or something.

HT3986 Where are the individual files located in iphoto

Where are the individual files located in iphoto, thanks for your help

They are all stored in the iPhoto Library. You would need to examine its contents to see them separately (outside of iPhoto).

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 are the Theme Images

Hi,
I am using the Watercolour these at the moment, but want to change the colours of the images - is there an easy way to do this?
Where are the image files located?
Thanks
Rich

The theme packages are located in the application itself: iWeb/Contents/Resources/Themes folder. You'd have to open that particular package and see if you can modify the colors. I would make a backup copy of your iWeb application just in case.

Where are the preview images stored

When you launch iPhoto 8.1.2 and you can look at the preview of the photos in the main screen, Where are these file fragments located?
I have many original pictures that are deleted (yes they are gone and right now I dont care about that) but they still show up in the preview area of iPhoto.
This is a great thing for me since the originals have been deleted and I am trying to salvage whatever sanity I have left in these deleted photos.
I know the images for the previews are somewhere in this machine? is it in a database file or something that needs a special tool to extract the thumbnails?
And yes I have already looked in all the folders inside of the 'show package contents' window. So I am left to believe this is a hidden database preview structure since the photo is truly deleted but it shows up clear as day in the preview area of iPhoto. But of course when you click on the photo you get the big "EXCLAMATION POINT" telling you the photo is gone. Yes I know the photo is gone.
I just want to know where the preview images are stored so I can recover them.. (even if it is the lowest quality and only a few kb in size) its better than nothing as far as I am concerned.
Thanks

They are in the Data folder within the Library Package.

Where is the user image file located?

So, I know this has been discussed before, but I can't find a sollution that works in Mountain Lion.
I'd like to be able to locate the image file which I'm using for my user account icon. It also appears in iMessage and Contacts, but I can't drag it to the the desktop. Because I don't know the file name, I can't search for it.
Does anyone know where it is stored? Or how I can extract it?

Hi,
Previously in iChat the "Recent Pics" were stored and shown in the Drop down in the Buddy list.
The place was ~/Library/Images
In Mountain Lion it appears that the Drop Down shows "Recent Pics" but is pulling them from several sources.
The Messages Drop down
The Recent Picture Folder has these:-
Some Match and some don't.
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook holds the Zebra and copies of my Sig and thre Union Flag.
At present I cannot find the ones the System Preferences > User and Groups > your account has as Pic are stored.
Some of the pics are the Apple Default ones. (Hardrive Name/Library/User Pictures)
You can also take a Snap Shot on Macs with cameras and I guess it is this that you are after ?

Where are the font caches located?

Trying to trash my font caches but cant find them.

It moves to the Trash all font cache.
Not quite. It clears any and all cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode. It doesn't do anything to the system cache files.
All font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later)
I know that info came from one of Apple's own Knowledge Base articles, but it's completely out of date. The user font cache files haven't been in that location since Tiger. All font cache files (along with Font Book's database) are now deeply buried in a hidden folder. Part of the name may be different from Mac to Mac, but they are now here:
/private/var/folders/3K/3Kdt7kk4Ghim10j+GZwim++++TI/-Caches-/com.apple.FontRegis try/
Don't try and edit anything in here yourself. Use the command below to clear font cache files.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

Where are the *.ini files located?

I remember a discussion about deleting some of the *.ini files (or whatever they are called) but I can't find the link, don't remember the filenames and can't find their location.
I'm having the same problem with Media Encoder where it only goes partway through an encode and then returns an error message. The last time I experienced that, I deleted the startup files and things worked fine. I think that there was a link from Dennis Draeke about some config files and their location.
All help gratefully accepted!
TIA,

After experiencing the situation where a codec (LEAD MJPG) that had worked previously suddenly would not export through AME again, I tracked down the preferences files as outlined above and removed the following files:
Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs,
Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs~2
AMEPrefs.xml
And once again I could export with any codec settings I chose with no problems.
I'm working with 1280x720, 30P, square pixels, 44.1kHz, 16-bit stereo material.
When not working, the encode would proceed about 1/2- to 2/3 of the way through and then stop and return the message:
- Preset Used: 1280x720P TX-1 Settings - LEAD Codec
- Video: 1280x720, 30 [fps], Progressive, Quality 90
- Audio: 44100 Hz, Stereo, 16 bit
- Bitrate:
- Encoding Time: 00:15:27
4/10/2010 2:56:50 PM : Encoding Failed
Error compiling movie.
Codec compression error.
This codec may be unable to support the requested frame size, or there may be a hardware or memory problem.
After removing those three files, encoding would finish properly and return the message:
- Preset Used: 1280x720P TX-1 Settings - LEAD Codec
- Video: 1280x720, 30 [fps], Progressive, Quality 90
- Audio: 44100 Hz, Stereo, 16 bit

- Encoding Time: 00:03:09
4/11/2010 1:39:31 PM : File Successfully Encoded
4/11/2010 1:39:31 PM : Queue Stopped
Thought I'd post the results in case it might help help someone solve a problem.

Where are the edited files located in Lightroom?

I want to be able to use my edited files in InDesign but the only way I know how to do it is to export them to a folder in the finder. This poses a couple of problems. For one it doubles the amount of disk space I use and perhaps more importantly it will not bring the changes I make in Lightroom over to InDesign. Does anyone know where Lightroom saves the edited files after they have been edited in Lightroom?

I don't know InDesign, so your mileage may possibly vary, but I don't get involved in formal LR exports and imports when editing with other apps. What I do when I need to use another editing app in addition to LR is right-click the image in LR and select Edit In... and pick the app I want to use.*
I'm given three choices for the other app: Edit a Copy With Lightroom Adjustments (the choice you want in your example), Edit Copy (start over, ignoring what I've done in Lightroom), Edit Original (ditto, but BZZT! not a great idea, to me at least).
The file opens in the other app (and also in Lightroom, as a copy) in the default file format that app is set to use, such as .tif, assumed here. I make the edits I want there, and then I Save the image again within that app. That saves the app-edited .tif copy back to the Windows folder being used by Lightroom for the imported .dng Lightroom image files. Note also that there is now a second copy of the image that appears in the Lightroom filmstrip, adjacent to the right side of the .dng image, that is the .tif file and reflects all the edits in the other app. I can make further edits within Lightroom to the .tif (or to the .dng file without the app edits), but in the .tif file, I now can't undo any changes made before I saved in the other app. Those edits, including the Lightroom edits before opening in the other app, have now become destructive edits in that .tif file. (This is why I recommend working with a copy, not the original.) If I need to undo something LR did before I went to the other app, I delete the .tif file and start over with the .dng.
When I'm done editing from LR (I let LR manage the final edited copy), I can Export that .tif file with any additional edits LR made, Print from within LR, etc.
*If you can't see the app you want to use when you select Edit In, go in LR to Edit>Preferences>External Editing tab, and under Additional External Editor, click the Choose button and navigate to the .exe file for the app you want to use. You also set the file format and other preferences there. Save your new preference with the OK button, and right-clicking will bring the other app up in LR as an Edit In option.
