Where are X-Fi Profiles (presets) sav

Hi there.
I just upgraded my X-Fi drivers to the May 30th version so I could try out the Prey demo.
I was disheartened to see however, that my saved graphic equaliser profiles etc have been erased,
and I only have the default profiles available.
I had one set up in Audio Creation Mode for my guitar, which I'd spent hours getting "just so" and would like to get it back.
Fortunately I made a Ghost image a few days ago, so the file should still be in there if it got overwritten,
but searching for the name of the profiles in the folder comes up empty.
I just tried making a new EQ profile and saving it, so I could attempt to find the file, so I knew where they would be stored, but I can't find it.
So please could somebody tell me where the profiles (or having just checked again, they're called "Presets" in the audio console) are saved, so that I may recover my previous presets from my ghost image, rather than have to try to start all over again getting my EQ and Guitar sounding exactly as I like again?
Please advise,
Many thanks,

Unfortunately seems to be a little different with X-Fi.
Have navigated to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CREATIVE TECH\Component Installed
and checked each entry below that. Each entry had an "object" field, but opening all of those didn't show any presets, but found just about every other setting in there Typical!
I did also search the entire registry for preset names, and came up empty
Hopefully somebody from Creative can shed more light on this, so I don't have to loose my presets when I upgrade the driver again
VN.
P.S. Have also now got the Windows search to search for words inside files, in case the presets were stored in an .ini or so... searched for the word "guitar" which is the preset for my... erm... guitar!
Searched the entire Creative folder in program files, came up empty, just scanned the registry for the word "guitar" came up empty also.
I know the Creative drivers have been in for a lot of flak, but I have to say that I'm very disappointed to think there's no easy way to retain your settings when you do upgrade the drivers.

In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to. Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone. Where are they? I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to. Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone. Where are they? I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

The application auto-saves your input when you close the document. If you left the document, as you state, the notes/comments should have been saved and should have been visible the next time you opened the document with the Mobile Reader (note that if you are opening the document with another app such as Apple's built in PDF Viewer, things like notes/comments may not be visible). Also note that if you are doing an Open In... from another app (like Dropbox), the version of the document in Dropbox does not update; only the version of the document in the Mobile Reader is updated.
Would it be possible to send a video of the problem you are encountering to [email protected] so that we can try to help?

Where are all the Develop Presets located?

In the Develop Preset folder (Vista: C:\Users\Howie\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Develop Presets) there are only a few presets listed instead of all the creative and sharpening presets as seen in the Quick Develop "saved preset" drop down. Where are all the other presets located?
Note: my goal is to look at each creative preset to see just what settings are being applied.

Don - that is not what he is asking.
Howie - I have no idea where they are stored on Windows - from a quick exploration I guess they are in the Application .exe file. On the Mac you can get into this, but I'm not sure you can on a PC
However the simplest thing to do is Apply a Preset and Note what is does in the Develop Module. That will be what the Preset is trying to do.
Alternatively Apply the Preset and Create a New Preset with a Different Name, it will have the same settings.

Where are printer paper profiles stored in Mavericks?

In previous versions of OS X, I could find where my printer paper profiles were stored. I have some test paper profiles that don't work and I want to delete them but I can't find them in Mavericks 10.9.2 I have done a search for their name but apparently they are hidden although they show up in Photoshop and the Printer dialog box. What and where is the folder I need to look in? Thanks for your help.

~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles

Where are the printer profiles in Mt. Lion 10.8.5? I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles.

I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles. All of my existing profiles were carried over when I upgraded to 10.8 but i do not find anything like the previous Color Sync folder. Where do I put the new profiles? And why can't Spotlight find the existing ones? BTW, I can't find them on my iMac running 10.7.5 either.

Where are the rest?
Depends. For Epson printers, they're in the /Library/Printers/EPSON/ folder, and that itself varies. For the Stylus Pro 4900, they're in that folder, and then another couple of subfolders deep in InjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles. Sometimes they're tucked away in a .plugin or .framework file within the EPSON folder, or one of its subfolders. In short, they're not always easy to find. At least not with Spotlight.
To make your search way easier, download the free EasyFind. Turn on the check boxes to look within Package contents, and Invisible Files & Folders. There's nothing on the drive that can hide from you. Then do a search for .icc .
But unless your objective is to remove a long list of profiles you'll never use, there's no need to find these other obscure locations OS X lists profiles from. Just put the ones you want to use in either the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (if you want all users of that Mac to have access to the profiles), or the ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (the tilde means your user account). Only you will have access to the profiles if placed there.

Where are the Adobe PDF Presets stored?

I am doing some video lessons and would like to clean up the Adobe PDF Presets menu in the Export as PDF dialog box.
Where are they stored?
I've looked through the many folders on my machine called "Presets" but can't find them.

Here's a great opportunity to file a feature request. In InDesign CS5.5, Preferences > File Handling displays the location of recovery files, and offers users the option to choose a custom location. It would be a great logical step to make the locations of the various presets and other stored items available and also offer users the option to customize. Care to file a request in the usual place - Adobe Feature Request or Bug Report form.
As preferences, these details are out of the way, yet are much easier to find than searching through a disk's file system.

Where are the custom profiles?

Adobe writes: "Submit the lens profiles that you have created for your lens from inside the Lens Profile Creator to share with the rest of the user community"
Where are all the custom profiles? Can anyone provide an URL to where the profiles can be downloaded?

New self-made profiles will be put to the correct place by the lens profile creator. Quoting from dpreview's forums:

Where are the Gradient color presets in CS6?

Hi,
I've gone from CS4 to CS6 and when using the Gradient tool, there used to be a properties box that you could open with a whole list of preset color gradients to choose from, i used to use the 'Black - White' one all the time, which kinda blurred the edges, made a transparent gradient and allowed, for want of a better word, montages to be created easily, but now this function seems to have gone. Is it hiding somewhere that I don't know about? Or alternatively, can someone advise me on how to get the same effect that the Black White Preset used to give me?
Thanks a lot
Jules

Yeah, those gradients are gone in CS6. On the one hand, most of them were pretty cheesy; on the other hand, it's a bit surprising they took away those presets but still didn't offer users a simple way to save gradients.
One way that you can save gradients is as Styles. As an experiment, I actually did this one day for the classic Fireworks gradients. Once created, styles can be saved as a library, where you can call on them from within any FW document.
Another way to quickly create a black and white gradient is by setting the fill and/or stroke colors, which are the basis of gradients. You can reset the default fill and stroke colors within the Tools panel. However, this can be tricky, at times, depending on what objects are selected and what type of fill they already have; it can be easy to accidentally apply a stroke to an object this way. Alternatively, if Stroke is set to None, then setting Fill to Black will result in a black and white gradient when you switch to a gradient Fill type.

Where are my Photoshop Raw presets stored?

I need to format my HDD and dont wanna lose all my raw presets, where do I find them physically, or how do I export all of them?
THANK YOU!
P.S. In case you dont know which presets do I mean here's a screenshot:

That's right. In general, not only are the presets stored there, but
also camera-specific defaults, lens profiles, and color profiles
created by the user. It's a good folder to backup.

Where are my sound module preset names in the track list?

I've been using Logic since version 2.5 and, since I have several MIDI sound modules whose sounds I'm perfectly happy with, I am now using those sound modules with Logic 8.
But having just upgraded to 8 from 7, I've discovered something I think is missing, which is a bit of an annoyance.
In all previous versions of Logic, if you set up a instrument in the Environment for a MIDI sound module and then added all the preset names when you set up the bank/program change commands, when you select a preset from the track list in the Arrange window, the name in the track list changed from the name of the instrument to the name of the preset.
For example, the name would change from 'Fantom XR' (the name I'd called the instrument in the Environment) to 'PNO SoTrue' (the name of the preset) in the track list when I selected that preset via Logic.
However, in Logic 8, when I select a preset, the name on the track list now stays as 'Fantom XR' (or whatever the name of the instrument is) and doesn't change to that of the preset.
Given that I use six MIDI modulss, keeping track of the sounds by having the trak list name change to that of the presets was really useful for keeping track of what was what.
Have I just missed something with how to do it, or is a permanent change? I really hope not.

No, it's still there, but the interface has changed.
Right-click on a track and select "Configure Track Header"
In the box that comes up, enable the checkbox under "Names" and next to it (the second flip menu), select "Software Instrument Setting Name".
Now the program names in your multi-instruments are displayed in the manner you have been accustomed to.
As ever, save this stuff in your autoload to always have you own configs available.
You have some options there in that the two flip menus determine the first and second displayed track name, so you can set up how you like - it's more flexible than earlier versions of Logic.

Where are Image Trace custom presets saved?

I had to reinstall CS6 and am now looking for my old AI Image Trace custom presets. I'd like to restore them if possible from a Time Machine backup so I don't have to recreate a setting, but I can't seem to find where those are located. Can someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

On a Mac they are in the hidden Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences

Where are the camera profiles? Not showing up in LR 4

The camera profiles are not visible in the camera calibration menu in the develop module of Lightroom 4. I installed them using the installer that came with the profiles. What folder are they supposed to be in so I can use them (Windows 7 x64)? Where is the documentation? Why isn't Adobe answering the phone?

Thanks for your quick reply! I have the 4.1 update installed. I have a Sony SLT A57. It is not inC\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1\Resources\CameraProfiles
The actual path there looks like:
C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1\Resources\CameraProfiles\lens profiles\camera\adobe standard (empty)
However, I installed rc 4.2 after I wrote to you, and the path to the (Sony) camera profiles is now:C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.2 RC\Resources\CameraProfiles\Adobe Standard. There is another folder named Camera, under Camera Profiles, in which are Canon, Nikon, and other camera folders - with several different profile choices within each folder. In this other "Camera" folder there are some Sony cameras with different profile choices for each camera in the folder, ie portrait, landscape, vivid, standard. Can I try one of those, or does the program automatically go to my camera model? Are they planning to add these other profile choices for my Sony SLT a57?
The one profile listed in the development menu is "embedded". What is that?
Thanks, Joanne

Where are my Camera Profiles in LR?

I have anther computer, where I use on location. I set up everything on my Mac Desktop computer and it works great. Now, I went to import pictures into my Mac Powerbook and I don't have any options for my "Camera Cailbration" under "Profile".
On my Mac Desktop Computer I have the following...
ACR 4.4
ACR 4.2
Adobe Standard
Camera Faithful
Camera Landscape
Camera Neutral
Camera Portrait
Camera Standard
Now on my Powerbook, the only options i have are...
ACR 4.4
ACR 4.2
I searched through many, many threads to be able to figure this out on my own, but I couldn't find anything.
I checked my preferences and don't see anything their either?
Then I saved the image from one computer, where it shows all the profiles and opened it on the other computer and there are spaces for that, but it wouldn't import with the "Camera Neutral" profile.
This is probably an easy fix, so please help if you know...
Thanks,

You don't mention which version of Photoshop/ACR you have on the PowerBook, but be aware that the camera profiles are only compatible with Photoshop CS3/Camera Raw 4.5 and higher or Photoshop CS4/Camera Raw 5.0 and higher
If using CS3/Camera Raw 4.x on your POwerBook you can download the profiles as part of Camera Raw 5.3. Inside this download package you find an installer package for the camera profiles (cameraprofiles.mpkg). Don't bother installing Camera Raw 5.3 as it is not compatible with CS3.
If using CS4/Camera Raw 5.x then follow above instructions. but this time you should install Camera Raw 5.3
You can download a copy of Camera Raw 5.3 from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Macintosh

You aren't the only one, and neither is going away any time soon.

I need to know where are files stored when you save an image from an email

I downloaded print central and can print from it, but how do I get an attachment to save inside to print central?

there should be classes for newbie and advanced (not in age) and I would think they would if there are enough, have classes aimed at elderly as well - many need to and love to keep in touch with far-flung family and friends through Skype, video, IM and other new social formats.
I know my father went to classes for awhile when he got a laptop and the classes was one of the reasons he choose the store he did, and had it custom configured for him (the computer, not the adult class).
For many, just getting someone to understand what RAM and storage and what virtual memory vs real is a stretch of imagination. And we see that here with some questions.
Try explaining 3D to someone that lives on a mobius strip in a flat world.
One idea:
I would think there are YouTube courses to follow at home on your own and that can output from computer to a TV or view on a tablet (and iPod and tablets output to TVs just fine too).
