Where exactly are modem settings stored?

I was trying to add my wife's phone to the list of devices we used to connect to the internet as bluetooth modems last night, and all **** broke loose. We're on T-Mobile in the UKI, I use a Nokia 6280 and she has a 6300.
I've been connecting fine, and so thought adding her phone would be simplicity itself. But nope. Couldn't get her phone working which was no big deal as she hardly uses it, but I use the phone everyday as a modem and now it's not working either.
I think it's something to do with the port settings on Bluetooth but I can't be sure. Anyhow, despite trying to mess around with the Ross Barkman's scripts and info at Taniwha.org.uk, I still haven't had any job.
T-Mobile won't help, as I do pay 12.50 GBP per month to use their dedicated 3G service, so I'm on my own. I suddenly realised I could just restore the files Time Machine from before all this happened, but I don't know precisely where to look. Specifically, where will I find the files containing the setting changed by adding new phones, storing details of paired phone, port details and network settings such as APNs, Script details etc? If I can get those, I can just restore and hopefully everything would be OK. Help gratefully appreciated!

Where exactly are my iBooks stored on my mac?

i am curious as to where exactly my iBooks are being stored on my mac?

I believe they are in your iTunes Music folder. Each author that you have downloaded will have a folder within the music folder.

Where exactly are the media files kept now?

It used to be simple, the media files were all in the Final Cut Events folders and if you trashed them they were gone.
However, now that I have updated my 10.0.9 projects and events to 10.1, I apparently have identical media files in the "Old Final Cut Projects and Events" folder together with the new Library.
I believe that some of these are symbolic, but which ones?
If I delete something from the "Old Final Cut Projects and Events" folder, will it still be present in the new Library . . . . . and vice versa?
What if I delete both lots?
Where exactly are my old media files?

It's a tricky bit of engineering. If you updated the projects and events and the media was already in the events then the media will appear to be in both plays simultaneously, but only taking the drive space of one. If you delete the old events, the drive space will not go down because the media is still on the hard drive.
Here's the thing, when we say a media file is in a folder, it's not physically in the folder. It's somewhere on your hard drive, wherever there was space when the file was written to the drive. The file structure says they're in a folder or move from folder to folder, but in reality they never move. Only the directory structure changes. That's what's happening here. Both folders, old events, new libraries are pointing to same space on your physical hard drive where the media files are living. Both are holding the media files in their directory. If you delete them both the media will disappear from the directories and that drive space will be freed and eventually get physically overwritten as more stuff is written on the drive.

Where (in the filesystem) are network settings stored?

Hello,
i did a clean install of mavericks, and want to import the network settings from an older backup i did (have both: 10.8 full backup and 10.9 library folder backup) into the new system; unfortunately i don't know where they are stored, and can't seem to find any information on this issue!
I searched all of the preferences and application support folders, but no success.
does anyone know more about this?
thanks & kind regards

ah, thanks! i read about "SystemConfiguration" before, but didn't find it - i searched in the user's library folder, but it's the "global" library folder. only have the user library backup with me now, but will check later when i get home. thanks!

Where are toolbar settings stored in Acrobat 9?

We recently deployed Acrobat 9 firmwide and now realize that the "rotate clockwise" and "rotate counterclockwise" buttons do not appear on the Page Display Toolbar by default. This is causing our users some trouble as they are used to just clicking a button to rotate images. I have been unable to find where this particular setting is stored in the registry; our hope is to use Group Policy to add these buttons to everyone's toolbar. We do not want to re-deploy this application. Can anyone help me out? Much thanks in advance!

Thanks, Steve. Actually, the ones I needed--my custom settings--were stored in a similar path: [username]>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings. What's interesting is that if you do a search for ".joboptions", none of these are found. Curious!
I'll make a note of this path.

Where are Optimizer settings stored?

I need to deploy PDF Optimizer settings throughout my organization, like I did with joboptions.
So far I have been unsuccessful in searching for a file with the name into which I saved my optimizer settings.
Where are the optimizer settings stored? I would hate to have to set these all manually for everyone.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
Thanks for the info. I think this is what I need, but I opened the Javascript console and pasted in the code and nothing happened.

What else do I need to do to make the Console recognize and respond that line of code?

Where are proxy settings stored for JRE 6

Where are the http proxy settings stored for JRE 6? I am trying to figure out how to centrally manage these settings for a large number of computers. I have heard about the deployment.properties file, however changing this file is not changing my proxy settings.
Thanks for you help.

Where are VPN Settings Stored in Mavericks?

So, the short version is;
Anyone know where all the VPN settings are stored in Mavericks; and can I just use ARD to copy that file from one machine to another?
Longer version is:
I've been a user of DeployStudio for years and years for all my Imaging needs, it's worked great in general.
But Mavericks, and these new MacBook Pro's (11,2) models are giving me stress....
I have the latest build of DeployStudio, and it works, I can Netboot with multiple models, (iMAcs, Mac Mini's, Air's, Macbook Pro)
Build number 1.6.4-NB140206
The issue i'm having is builds seem to create fine, but when I put the build on the new Macbook Pro's (11,2) Models. the VPN Configurations are not being read. The Imaged machines show VPN as "Not Configured"..
I've tried re-building my base machine multiple times, the Configurations are postively there when I create my build. The configurations are still there after I create an image of the machine.
But when I put the build onto another (11,2) Model the VPN settings disappear.
I'm wondering if there is a configuration file that holds the settings. I have tried exporting the VPN entries, and re-importing them on the new machine, but when I import them, the come in as LT2 IPSEC, instead of the proper Cisco (IPSEC). So i'm getting stuck.
Thanks.

I think i resolved it. I put the "By Hosts" folder in my User Template, and i think that's what was messing up the VPN and Keychain on my builds..

Where are network settings stored?

I want to copy (migrate) the network settings (I have various locations) from my MBP to my wife's MBP after the HDD had been replaced. Does anybody now where this locations and its settings are stored? Would save me quite some time.

You can also export your settings from System preferences > Network, at the bottom of the window press the little wheel and choose export
This I also found but this "Export Configurations" is greyed out for all but Bluetooth settings. i searched the forums and that seems to be consistent.

Where are the settings stored?

I have messages that have the color set on them for organizational purposes. I want to copy these settings to another MAC. Where is this information located?
(The rules I have copied... I want the INBOX to show the same coloring on the other MAC.)
Thanks!

This is an IMAP account by the way... So you think that when I mark a message RED for example, that this information is stored in the general MAIL preference file? I would have expected to find it somewhere in the /users/Library/Mail folder, as it relates to a specific message. The RULES I have been able to move just fine... it's just that when I COLOR a message on one computer I want that color to show up on the other computer as well... Does this make any sence at all?
(Using .mac to sync results in the same problem. The rules are synced, but the modifaication I made to the individual IMAP message does not sync. Flag, Color, etc.)

Where are monitor settings stored beside krandrrc

Hi.
I would like to ask for help. Recently i've found interesting issue regarding KDE monitor system settings. KDE system settings make one config file in ~/.kde4/share/config named krandrrc. When we use KDE monitor system settings, configurations are stored in file krandrrc (information like resolution, refresh rate, orientation when there are 2 LCD displays connected and so on are stored here).
I have dual monitor setup. I found this issue because of what i do by an mistake. I chosed to disable my second screen, hit save - i wanted to disable it. Than by mistake i disabled my first, primary screen and this choos was saved right on the spot (i though that when i won't acept settings, they will be restored, just like in Windows, but there were not). So, in fact, i ended with second screen disabled and my first screen disabled, so after each boot, i log in and than, my picture/screen goes off and my lcd monitor shuts itself off.
I tried to delete krandrrc file in ~/.kde4/share/config but it did not make a change. Is there a different config file for monitor settings in KDE? How i could restore it back? Is there a way? I restored it by a chance (i just logged in, hit alt+f2, tried to type "terminal", and than type xrandr --auto but this metod is a metod that needs luck because we can't see anything with disabled screen). I deleted also xorg.conf but in Arch, in fact, it is not needed because udev. I tried to log into tty by hitting alt+f1, but in terminal typing xrandr --auto won't make difference, it says that it can't start X window session so it works only in gui.
Could somebody help? Maybe you have a fix for it?
Thanks.

Hi firekage,
I came across your post while trying to fix a similar issue on my laptop. I don't have a krandrrc file. However, I found that if I deleted the files in my ~/.kde4/share/apps/kscreen directory I was able to "start over" and configure my displays again.
Hope that helps you out.

Where exactly are the comments from my iWeb Site stored?

Anybody know where on my iDisk the user entered comments for my iWeb blog entries are stored? I looked around and couldn't find anything obvious.

Hmm interesting, although I'm not sure I follow the goal of your suggestion. What does appending this to the end of my blog link get me?

Where exactly are old versions of files stored on the harddisk?

The way the new versions-feature works is actually too magical for me. For sake of control I want at least to know, where all those old versions of documents are actually stored on my harddisk. With that knowledge perhaps further questions like how to delete old versions become redundant.

yep, ur right. my dream of distributing versions of documents all in one file are dashed. When you copy a versioned document to another machine you get this:
And guess what - there was a message initially where the "No previous..." is that said, and get this, "Retrieving versions from TimeMachine." So that's how they are doing it folks.
Implications? Smoke and mirrors or true innovation?

Where are custom settings stored?

Hi,
I created a custom setting that I use for my youtube videos. I want to copy this setting so that I can back it up and use it on another computer.
Where is it located? I cannot seem to find it...
Thanks

The custom compressor settings are located at
/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Compressor
If you're going to transfer the Compressor settings between multiple systems I'd recommend creating the custom settings folder via the Compressor Settings pane, this will create a folder containing the custom settings that you've create and will allow you to easily drag and drop this folder onto other system.
Hope this helps.
