Where is my PS CS4 Plugin folder?

I was trying to install the complete edition for NIk Software but I was not able to locate the PLUGIN folder , where is that? From the instruction of software installation I should locate the following:
Macintosh HD: Application: Adobe Photoshop CS4: Plugins
In Adobe Bridge CS4 there is a plugin folder but in Adobe Photoshop CS4, there is none.
Please help!

If the Photoshop-folder in the Applications-folder does not contain a folder named »Plug-ins« You might consider re-installing Photoshop (after making sure al personalized settings like Workspaces, Actions, Brushes, etc. are backed up).

Where is the Photoshop Elements plugin folder?

For some reason one of my plugins does not install to Photoshop Elements and I was wondering if anyone knew where the folder is where I should manually copy the plugin. Thank you for your help!

Just one thing--is this PSE6? If so, are you sure the plug-in isn't installing? Many (probably most) plug-ins are too old to be universal. If you are getting a message that one or more plug-ins failed to load, that doesn't mean the install failed, just that you need to run PSE in rosetta when you want to use the plug-in.

Where can I find the plugins folder when I have opened PSE13? I miss it in this version! If so why did Adobe removed it? Then this version has no use to me.

I just purchased PSE13 and after installing I noticed that I can't find my plugins while I could easily open it in my PSE11. Why did Adobe removed it??? If so I think I will install PSE11 again.
Kind-a weird that this version doesn't have a plugin-use anymore.
Oftwel: waar heeft PSE13 de plugins gelaten? In mijn vorige versie PSE11 wanneer ik met een foto bezig was kon ik mijn plugins bereiken, stonden ze er netjes bij maar bij deze versie kan ik ze nergens vinden. Mocht het zo zijn dat Adobe deze heeft verwijderd {wat erg dom is, naar mijn mening!} zit er niets anders voor me op om terug te gaan naar PSE11....

I have Windows 7 Professional X86 and I also noticed that PSE13 was installed in my 'normal' program files folder instead of the X86 program files folder. PSE11 used the X86 programfiles folder. I dunno why though!

Plugin folder not there?

Aloha all, So far 1.5 is working fine for me, still a bit slow compared to Lightroom, but seems stable and certainly usable for my needs so far. My question for the more experenced users is: Where the heck is the plugin folder?
I downloaded the Flickr-Aperture Plugin and the instalation instructions are clear and straight forward - Copy the Flickr.ApertureExport bundle to the directory Users/Library/ApplicationSupport/Aperture/Plugins/Export This plugin would be helpful for my needs to give clients a quick look from anywhere.
Herein lies the problem, I don't have a plugins folder for Aperture. Can I create one and place it there? Maybe someone would be kind enough to explain how to do this. More importantly should I have one, and where could I look for it? I've used Spotlight, but an Aperture Plugins folder doesn't show up. I'm a bit confused any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Mahalo in advance, JB

Some of the plug-ins have their own installers that create the needed folders and some don't. If you add one that doesn't install the folders, it's perfectly OK to create them yourself as follows:
username/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/Export
Put the plug-ins in the Export folder. They'll automatically show up in the Export submenu.

PSE 9 Default Plugins Folder

Just wondering where the PSE 9 Default Plugins folder is suppose to be located on a Mac?

I got the answer when I uninstall PSE 6 and 8. Was'nt opening a folder that I should have looked in orginally.

Updated Camera Raw CS4 Plugin (no plugin folder??)

I am trying to install the updated SC4 Camera Raw Plugin but I can't find the Plugin folder referred to in the following directions:
5. Navigate to:(Please read directory carefully)
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS4/File Formats
6. Copy the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
7. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
What can I do about this? Is there somewhere else I can stick the Plugin so that it works?

What OS? And no, there is no other place to put the Camera Raw plug-in. Note, the Library in this case is the root Library, not the User level Library.

This is an message when I open up CS4 in Illustrator. "Some plugins in additional plugins folder are conflicting with application or user plugins. It will skip loading plugins from additional plug-ins folder? What does this mean and how can I fix it.

Thanks Larry. I thought so. I will do this weekend. Again, I appreciate your help.
Trying to get updated software – I am not a fan of the cloud stuff. Nothing I can do about it.
Thanks again Larry!

Where is my plugins folder ?

I am trying to follow this instruction:
*Copy the ‘Alex4D Move 1.01.fcfcc’ file into*
*Your Startup HD/Users/your name/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Express Support/Plugins for Final Cut Express users*
*Restart Final Cut, and you’ll see the generator in the ‘Animate’ section of ‘Video Generators’*
But after I navigate upto Application Support, I cannot find the Final Cut Express Support folder, so where do I copy my plugins to ?
How come I do not have the Final Cut Express Support folder ?
Thanks

Where is the quicktime plugins folder in 10.6.7

I bought a new MacBook Pro running 10.6.7 and updated it from a backup from my old MacBook Time Capsule backup and now a lot of videos won't play in iTunes or Quicktime. I had a search around and people said it was probably because Apple has moved the Quicktime plugins folder. I've had a look, and I have quicktime plugin folders at the following locations:
HD > Library > Quicktime
HD > System > Library > Quicktime
HD > Users > (me) > Library > Quicktime
All of them have various Quicktime plugins in them. Can someone please tell me:
what plugins are installed by default in OS 10.6.7, and
in which folder they should be in so I can move them to the right location?
Thank you

what plugins are installed by default in OS 10.6.7
In general, all components installed by the OS installation disc which are required for proper OS function are installed in the "~/System/Library/QuickTime" folder. Depending on the type of installation, this may or may not include previous components from older operating systems which may or may not still be functional. As I am not willing to perform a "clean" install to check on the specifics of this question or generate a list of specific components, I cannot go into more detail. QTKirk may have more exacting information regarding this question. (You could, of course, perform a clean install on a secondary internal or external drive to generate this information on your own.)
The "~/Library/QuickTime" folder contains "global" add-on components. This may include components automatically installed by such applications as iMovie, FCP, and/or third-party components installed by the user.
The "~/Users/named_user/Library/QuickTime" folder contains "local" add-on components. The components placed in this area by third-party installers or users are limited to in use to that specific account on multi-account systems.

Where is my plugins folder on a Suse 11.4 installation

I am having a very difficult time getting java installed in a Suse 11.4 installation of Firefox 5. This is a 64 bit system.
I have used or created a "plugins" folder in the following locations:
~/.mozilla/plugins
~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins
/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
/usr/lib64/firefox/plugins
into each of these folders I've added a symbolic link to
/usr/lib64/jvm/java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so
what is the proper folder into which the plugin link should go?
what is the true plugins folder so that all users of firefox can have a working java plugin?

Frustrating. Today, my JAVA plugin is available and enabled. I haven't changed anything!!!
After I exposed the plugin path, I see that the plugins are installed in a completely unexpected location:
/usr/lib64/browser-plugins
Is this path set by Mozilla/Firefox? It would be nice if Mozilla/Firefox picked a location and stuck with it.
But still this doesn't answer my question. I know the above path is a TARGET of a symbolic link. But I don't know which of the symbolic links that I created (see my original question) is the one pointing to the above path. I will have to delete them one by one and login/logout (reboot?) in order to determine which symbolic link is the proper one.

Photoshop CS4 plugins exists multiple times

Hello Everybody
I'm running a iMac 27 inch (End 2009) with the newest operating system (OSX 10.10.3) and the adobe creative suite 4 (Version 1102).
Since a few days, my photoshop (and only PS, all others like ID, BR and AI work fine) takes about 10 minutes to load. It always hangs at the "scanning for plugins" point on the splash screen.
I have now spent around 6 hrs to get rid of this issue but nothing helped. I searched through hundreds of discussions and youtube for solutions. I found out that the plugins should be in the /application/Adobe PS version XX/Plugins folder, where they are located. I tried to reinstall the whole suite several times, with and without the cleanout script from adobe. I tried applications like appcleaner, I tried to find the files on my own through the whole mac os (also searching with the parameter to show all hidden folders) etc. (By the way: I'm working as an IT guy, so I know a little what I'm doing). But I could not manage to get rid of those crazy plugins (I only use the standard plugins which come with the installation of PS).
So I see that it takes about 10 minutes to go through that scanning plugins point on the splash screen. Also when I choose to save a file and I click on the dropdown for the file type, I have now every possibility listed multiple times. Same in the main menu "photoshop -> about plugins".
Does anybody have any idea what I could do to fix this? I'm kinda stuck.
Below you'll find the screenshots of the error messages and so on (of course, I'm using it in German).
Every hint is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Additional Plugins folder PS CC - make a shortcut to your location

A great start, i have used PS CS5 Extended for years and got the PS CC version last night, despite following the tutorials on Adobe all say to add additional folder as before, that is not an option in PS CC Preferences under edit - to be honest i thought allowing one custom location in the past was stingy (some 3rd party filters install where they want in program files rather than to a main plugins folder then sub folder you specify)
I have seen mentioned by an Adobe Staff member to create a shortcut to your plugins folder, but no instruction as to how (would been the smart thing to post that instruction), so how please do i do this?

After you complete that, you are faced with the fact its 64bit PS CC only installed by Adobe so you cannot use most plugin filters, try this below .....

Having used Photoshop for a long time, i am surprised at having to do all this, the time wasted searching for how to do so is not funny and all Adobe PS CC manuals or pages instruct to use the extra plugins folder location as per PS CS5, I always rated you as very good before.

Why the TwirlFilter (Sample project in CS4) plugin is not selectable?

Hello All,
Im using Adobe Illustrator CS4.
I want to test the "TwirlFilter" (sample project in cs4 SDK) plugin. Project is compiled and plugin created.
I have placed this plugin in under plugins folder of AI.
Started AI and this plugin is showing under Effects menu. but not slectable, (I mean gray color )
infact all effects are showing gray color.
Open a new document
Now all effects are showing and selectable in Effects menu except Twirl plugin.
Why? What is the reason?
Note: If I draw a single line in the document, then Twirl plugin is enabled and selectable.

Its been a while since I looked at Twirl, but I'm pretty sure it requires art to operate on. You can configure a filter or menuitem to only be enabled under certain circumstances, and I'm pretty sure that sample project configures it to require available artwork. You can even require that certain types of art be selected before the menu is activated. I suspect Twirl requires selected path art.

Additional Plugins Folder - Windows 7 64bit

Since getting a new computer with 64bit Windows 7, Photoshop CS4 isn't behaving. The additional plugins folder is checked, and no matter what plugins I have in that folder, they are not recognized. I remember in using older versions of Photoshop, you had to download some dll that I can't remember and put it in your system folder or something for the additional plugins to show. Is that still the case? If so, what do I need to do?

The plugins are not installed plugins. They are in .8bf format. I haven't even attempted my AlienSkin or AutoFX CDs yet. The folder for these .8bf extension plugins is not even on the same hard disk as Photoshop, so I don't see how the 32-bit version that was installed along with the 64-bit version was corrupted by them. This doesn't make sense to me.

Spry_menubar.js missing from the DW CS4 Configuration folder

Dreamweaver CS4 reports that spry_menubar.js missing from the DW CS4 Configuration folder (specifically, missing from the Inspectors sub-folder).
Can someone please point to a link wherefrom this can be downloaded, and so replaced?
Thanks in advance, Dan

Thanks so much for the answer.
It appears that SpryMenuBar.js may be different from the missing Configuration file, spry_menubar.js. I am hopeful that we can resolve this and, if different, learn where to download the correct .js file.
(Another configuration file was recently missing. A search brought up an Adobe download. So far, no such link has become available for this missing file, hence this query to the Forum.)
Again thanks, Dan
