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 actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

    Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

    Define "the Aperture files".
    Read this concise guide.
    The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals".  Your Originals are never altered.  What went in is what comes out.
    Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file.  This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture.  There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image.  Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved.  These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original.  They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
    When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture.  "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing".  The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple:  create them by exporting.  Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
    Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom.  Note that I say "transitioning".  You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information.  Adobe provides a tool and some instructions.  I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
    As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
    We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
    If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
    Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database.  Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager:  that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.
    HTH,
    Kirby.

  • Where is the user.js file in my profile directory?

    I need to use Rich Text editor for work in echalk so I can cut, paste, copy, etc. I followed your support instructions at mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/securityprefs.html and http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles. I was able to find the profile directory, but there is no user.js file to enter the "allowclipboard" code into. Where is this file? I could not make a new one.

    The mozilla.org page you referenced tells you ''if there's no user.js file, create one. '' The user.js file is just a simple text file you create yourself (e.g., with Notepad on Windows) that has a .js file extension.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file for details.

  • Where is the Scheduler log file located?

    I'm trying to track down and diagnose this error in my scheduling/bursting:
    Error!! Could not deliver the output for Delivery channel: EMAIL.  Please check the Log for error details...
    But a search of my entire drive does not reveal any file with a .log extension that has been updated recently, nor do I see a reference to the location of said log file anywhere in the documentation.
    Where is the log file to which this error message is referring? Running the OBIEE Suite 10.1.3.4.1 under Windows.
    Thanks!

    Hi Mthompson,
    Look at this on how to create the log file.

    am sure, you did not create the email/smtp configuration, thats why you see this error.

  • Where is the .m2v menu file located for saved projects?

    Hi, i've done this before, but seem to have forgotten...I was wondering where is the location of the .m2v files of a saved project. The reason why i would like to find the .m2v file, is so i could convert the .m2v to .dv in order to create a menu on motion. From my remembering, the menu file could possibly be under the project file under "show package contents", but i seem to not have any success of looking for it recently. Can anyone help verify where the menu files are located?
    thanks for your time.
    Leonard
    i've burned the project and looked at the contents of the dvd and found a file with a .evo extension, would this have any relation to my question?

    evo is HD DVD file, not SD, so this may not apply (and you probably want to double check your project settings.)
    The items that DVD SP makes are in the PAR & MPEG files in a folder in the level where the assets are located, and if you do the show package contents on the project and look in the Render Data Folder what you are looking for should be there (when DVD SP has to render, there are some times it will not have to render)- Check out the manual DVD SP 4 (Pg 230 of the PDF) for certain instances (not all) where menus willl have to be compiled/rendered
    To do the show packkage http://dvdstepbystep.com/ira/ shows how to do it, just Highlight the DVD SP saved project (instead of the app intself) as shown in Step 1 on that link, then drill down

  • 10.0.6 - Where is the freeze frame file located ?

    Hi there,
    I am on 10.0.6.
    When I did freeze frame, I need a copy of that frame in jpg. How do I know where is the freeze frame located physically ?
    (NB: When I did a "Reveal in Event Browser", it only brings me back to the original video in the Event Browser)
    Thanks

    I see, so I have to export and then goto save current frame ?
    So does that mean "add freeze frame" only creates a link to the frame & in so doing, Apple actually save so physical disk space ?

  • Where is the user trace file?

    I have issued the statement below to enable sql trace in session 260 ,and it execute successfully.but i can not find where the trace file in directory $ORACLE_BASE/admin/testcs/udump (testcs is my database name).
    SQL> execute dbms_system.set_sql_trace_in_session(260,34880,true);
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    where is the trace file?
    By the way,how can i find the information about the package DBMS_SYSTEM which is not in ORACLE references?

    Did you issue some queries after turning tracing on? The trace file might not be created until there is some activity in the session.
    I know that DBMS_SYSTEM is documented in the O'Reilly Press book "Oracle Built-in Packages" by Feuerstein, Dye & Beresniewicz.
    However for tracing I think that Oracle expects you to use the dbms_support package:
    execute sys.dbms_support.start_trace_in_session -
      (sid => &sid, serial => &serial, waits => true, binds => true)Or for Oracle 7.3.4 or 8.0 you can use oradebug. Example:
    select pid, spid, username from v$process;
    PID    SPID   USERNAME
    8      25807  oracle
    SVRMGR> oradebug setorapid 8
    -- or -
    SVRMGR> oradebug setospid 25807
    -- turn on
    SVRMGR> oradebug event 10046 trace name context forever, level 12 
    -- turn off

  • Where are the Spry Javascript files located in Dreamweaver CS4?

    I am sure this is a trivial question but I cannot find them.
    The Adobe Web site states that Dreamweaver CS4 ships with Spry 1.6. I am trying to create a SpryNestXMLDataSet, but cannot find where the js file is stored, to copy it to my site. I do not see anything in the insert Spry data set wizard that allows me to create a nested XML data set. Thus, I can get Dreamweaver to add the xpath.js and the SpryData.js files, but I cannot figure out how to add the SpryNestXMLDataSet.js file, nor find a copy within the Dreamweaver program files.
    Thanks,
    Van

    Hello Van,
    Dreamweaver only includes the Spry files that can be configured using 
    the DW GUI. As there isn't a nested XML configurator yet, its not 
    included in dreamweaver.
    On Mac you can find the Spry files here: /Applications/Adobe 
    Dreamweaver CS4/configuration/Shared/Spry/
    On Windows its probably something like c:/program files/adobe/
    dreamweaver cs4/configuration/shared/spry/ But i don't own a windows 
    pc so I cant tell

    Since you posted this question the the LabVIEW forum, I'm assuming you wanted to use the LabVIEW driver and not the CVI driver. The LabVIEW driver does not require any DLL. Get the LabVIEW driver here.
