Where to save startup profiles

I've always used a custom startup profile in previous versions but I'm not finding where the new CC14 stores them. Other versions saved it in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS6/en_US/New Document Profiles.
No such Application Support folder is showing up for the new Illustrator (although strangely enough Photoshop has one there).

Hi,
These are in the folder:
/Users/<userName>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator 18/en_US/New Document Profiles
With Best Regards,

Illustrator CS4 - Startup Profiles missing?

Just installed Creative Suite Design Premium CS4 and every time I startup Illustrator I get this error message:
"Can't locate the Startup Profiles. Please try after installing Illustrator again. Illustrator will now attempt to create a default document."
It then creates a blank document in Letter format which is a bit annoying because I live in Europe where we are used to work with A4 format. The Tools palette is also missing, even though I'm able to get the Tools via the Window menu, Illustrator forgets to show it every time I start it. There are also no default Workspaces to choose from and I can't save my own either.
I have tried to reinstall CS4 three times but it doesn't help at all.
Anyone got any ideas?

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, TRY THIS LINK BELOW

"Always ask me where to save files" does not work.

Summary: The "Always ask me where to save files" feature does not work. No dialog box comes up, apparently because the browser is stuck on a bad old read-only lastDir location, in a prefs.js file that I can't edit.
Details:
I am using Firefox 30.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8. My Mac has a both a read/write Mac partition that I use most of the time, and a bootcamp Windows partition drive ("C"), which I can read but not write to.
At some point I accidentally tried to download a file from a site, using Firefox, to the read-only Windows C drive. Ever since that time, I have not been able to download any files from Firefox, except to the firefox/downloads folder. This is inconvenient. If, in preferences, I try to set downloads to ""Always ask me where to save files", the dialog box does not come up when I actually try to save files. This problem does not apply to saving photos by right-clicking them.
If I open, in text-edit, mozilla/firefox/profiles/t4vockvue.default/prefs.js, which was saved yesterday, I can see a problematic line. It reads:
user_pref("browser.download.lastDir", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc]");
C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc] being the read-only windows directory.
This prefs.js is apparently not an editable file.
I tried to fix this by opening a browser tab in Firefox and opening about:config. The editable browser.download.lastDir does NOT show the same "lastDir"....it shows some directory that I successfully downloaded photos to, by right-clicking on a photo.
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks.

To confirm which profile folder is active when you are running Firefox, it is easiest to open it from inside Firefox as follows:
Sometimes the file that stores the customizations becomes corrupted and fails to update properly at the end of your session. You can rename the file and customize from scratch.
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
In the first table on the page, click the "Show in Finder" button (Windows: "Show Folder" button).
Hopefully you are using a separate profile folder on each OS.

I just want the option to "save as" when downloading a file so I can choose where to save it. Right now, I go back to my Internet Explorer to do this.

I changed my setting to "always ask where to save files" and I went into my profile folder and deleted my preference folder.

Did you check the download settings?
*Tools > Options > General : Downloads : "Always ask me where to save every file"

How to change the location of where Itunes saves applications?

Hi! Im trying to change where itunes saves the applications for my ipodtouch but i cant change it. I can change where itunes can save songs. You go to preference and then adavanced. But, it still doesnt work!? can you please help me!! thank you!

I was trying to sort the same thing for my bro's library on his work laptop PC. They deleted half his apps because they were taking to much space on his network profile.
iTunes preferences allows you to change the folder that the music is saved to just nothing else.
You've said that: "Music, TV Shows, Movies, Audiobooks, applications and everything else are all stored together by iTunes." Can I move this entire library from the network drive it sits on to the laptop's C: drive? If so, how? Or is it as simple as drag and drop like it probably would be on my Mac lol.
Thanks, Jon

Everytime I try to open a picture in a new tab it asks me where to save, which is weird, since it didn't ask that before. How do I fix this?

Recently when I try to open certain pictures in new tab, it asks me where to save, or to open with what.
How do I stop this, it used to just open in new tab without asking anything?

You can rename (or delete) the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all file actions.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

Possible to have different Startup-profiles?

Hi,
I was wondering if it is somehow possible to have different startup-profiles. I just ordered a MacBook Pro and would like to have different startup and setups to choose from. I could make myself different userprofiles - but that way I think I don´t have access on the same Mail and iChat data - right?
Any ideas? At home I would like to have a startup with iChat and Mail and other things and when I´m using it on a concert I want to have a different setup without Bluetooth on and sharing and just very sleek.
Best regards - Christoph

HI Christopher,
Congrats on your new MBPro!
As administrator of your own computer you can set up different user accounts/profiles:
Adding a new user account to your computer
You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
Click Add and type the user's name.
If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.
Click Parental Controls and select options to determine what the user can do with the computer.
Now, each account would have it's own name and login password. Each account has access to it's own software, ie., Mail and iChat.
You can set up Bluetooth to pair with various hardware such as cell phones/mice/headphones/keyboards or printers.
You can set up your MBP to login certain software at startup. Example, I use Safari and my internet connection software daily so I have that set up to launch at startup -- saves time.

You will love your MBP!

I deleted my download folder and now I can't download anything. I can't select the folder to "save file to" and when I select "ask me where to save files" I still can't download. it says your file will start downloading, but then it doesn't. Help!!

I deleted the folder that saves everything that is downloaded from Firefox. After that I can't download anymore. I've tried clearing my download history, reset the download folder, reset the download action by renaming the mimetype.rdfs file and it's still not working. I've tried to choose a different download folder but it doesn't let me select any folder at all. If I select "ask me where to save files" and then try and download something, the download doesn't start after I select save to. The only time it does actually download is when I select "open with...windows mediaplayer" when downloading then the download will start. Please help. Thank you.

You broke your phone by getting it wet. Nothing more to say. Bring it in to Apple for an out of warranty exchange or buy a new phone. There's really nothing else we users here can help you with.

When I click on download link, Firefox don't pop-up window where i could select open with or to save file, it just pop-up window where to save, why?

Before update, when i clicked on download link pop-up window would come up asking me if i wnat to open file with program or just save it, but after update i dont get that pop-up window, insted i get window asking me where to save it, how can i fix this problem, because i want sertain files to be opened with a program like it was before update? I have tried every solution i could find, and nothing helped. I use Firefox 16.0.2 on win7 ultimate x64bit

Thank you, it helped alot. I found that my problem was that all programs in applications panel was set to "save file" option and when i changed them to "always ask" it was back to normal, like i used to :D many thanks

When downloading a large file, like a movie Internet Explorer automatically provides one with the choice of where to save it - e.g. "C" drive, but Firefox doesn't. How can it be done?

When downloading a large file, like a movie, Internet Explorer automatically opens a download window offering the choice to "Open" or "Save"the file. This provides one with the choice of where to save it - e.g. "C" drive, in the "My Documents" or "Desktop" folders but Firefox's download window doesn't. This has always frustrated me because I would rather use Firefox exclusively to access the Internet, but when it comes to saving files downloaded off the Internet, sadly, I have to revert to IE!

If you click on Firefox from the upper-left, then Options, a new window should appear. On that window, click on the general tab. In the middle of the window, you'll see options regarding your downloads, one of which says, "Always ask me where to save files." Click on the bubble for this options, then click Ok. From then on, you should always be prompted on where you want your files saved.

"Save as" dialog box doesn't come up, even though I have "Always ask me where to save files" selected (email attachments)

Recently, the "save as" dialog box quit appearing when I attempt to download email attachments. I have the "always ask me where to save files" box checked in the tools/options/general/downloads area. The box still appears when I use Chrome, but not when I use Firefox.

I still use Aperture 2.1.4. I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile. Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue. Help?

I still use Aperture 2.1.4. I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile. Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue. Help? Is there some way to add the CMYK profile to the list of choices that are available in the export preset dialogue such that I can choose it?

Thanks for your response. My profiles are located within color sync utility as you can see here:
These profiles do not respond to clicking and dragging. Since they are all in one place, more or less, I'm reluctant to make further attempts to relocate them. Accessing the CMYK profile is the first difficult experience I've encountered with this arrangement. I have never needed the CMYK profile until recently, and that need has now past. However, it remains a mystery to me as to why it does not appear with all the others on the menu of export choices in Aperture 2, or on the menu of profile assignment choices in the Preview application (where again all the other profiles are listed as choices). I'm beginning to think my current set up will permit me to view an image that was created in CMYK space, but does not easily assign, or convert to that space. I don't face these restrictions with all the others, so it remains a curious circumstance for me. I anticipate upgrading my computer and software in the near future which might alleviate this issue altogether. Again, many thanks for your attention to this matter. The reach of this community is astounding.

Is there an app where it saves your photo shortly after onto the web/online after taking a picture?

Is there an app where it saves your photo shortly after onto the web/online after taking a picture? In essense, I want to be able to take a picture with the stock camera app on the Iphone 4 and have it saved immediately online after...without hooking it back onto a computer...completely automatic and wireless/using internet data.
Thanks very much.

If you're running iOS 5.1 or later you could use Photo Stream. See http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/photo-stream.html and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486. It will upload up to 1000 photos to iCloud.com for 30 days.

Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is. I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?

I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.
