Lightroom :: 5 - Use Preset And Plugin Folders In Location Other Than Default One Possible?
Nov 13, 2013
Is it possible to use LR5's Preset and Plugin folders in a location other than in the default ones? I'd like my live Prest and Plugin folders to be in a Dropbox folder so that they would be synced in the cloud but the folders would also be synced between my desktop and my laptop so that I would have a consistent work environment wether I was using my laptop when travelling or my desktop.

I'm wondering if it's possible to delete the develop preset folders that come pre-installed with LR 4. I don't see them in the Develop Presets folder in Application Support/Adobe, and right-clicking on the folders themselves in LR doesn't provide the option to delete.
The folders I'm talking about are:
Lightroom B&W Filter Presets
Lightroom B&W Presets
Lightroom B&W Toned Presets
etc...

I've imported my first set of photos, but it looks like the folders are automatically saving them into ones by date. I need to customize my folder structure, but I cannot figure out how to do that once the photos have been imported.

For some reason my 2011 folder resides outside the main Lightroom folder in the application interface.When looked at through Finder though it resides where it should.
When in LR3 I Merge them it says 'A folder named 2011 already exists at this location'.how I can merge all the folders into one location in the LR3 interface?

My catalog folders are organized by YYYY-MM_TRIPNAME and contain subfolders by YYYY-MM-DD_LOCATIONNAME. Often I want to find a specific image that I took on a trip. I do remember the trip name and often the location name but not the date. How in LR can I search for a folder (or folders) whose name contains the trip or location name? I haven't tagged the image files (I should have but never did). Is there a solution without having to leave LR and go to the OS?

I don't understand Lightroom.
For example, I use LR4.2 on a desktop and on a laptop. Both computers (Windows 7 64bit) access the same image folders. On my laptop in a folder I have 42 master images and 5 virtual (soft proofs) images for a total of 47 images. But when I open LR4.2 on the desktop I don't see the 5 virtual (soft proofs) on the 42 master images.
Why can't I see the 5 virtual proofs since I am accessing the exact folder and how can I see the virtual proofs created on the laptop at the desktop.

I'm experiencing a bit of an organization problem with Lightroom 3 which is probably rather easy to fix, but I just can't seen ti figure out how. When I import photos in Lightroom it automatically creates folders (2011-12-14 for example) and I would like to change the location on my computer for these folders, but I can't find where to do it. It now creates these folders in my regular Pictures folder which gets really messy due to this. How can I change this? And how do I relocate all the excisting folders on my laptop, without having to find all the missing photos afterwards.

How would one set up a default import location, such as a directory below "My Pictures" or a flash drive? I don't see a way to create a macro or a preset that would step straight into a directory holding new images. In Windows, there are about six or eight levels from the top of the hierarchy to a location below My Pictures. There should be a way to automate the source location.

A couple questions on backing up the catalog.
1. What is the default location for the backup?
2.Can I change the default location? I would like to keep the backup on an external drive
3. If I can not change the back up location or Lr must do the backup,can I copy/paste the Catalog I want to keep to my external drive.

I am trying to change my default import location on my MAC Pro Tower, to one of the internal HD's. I have named the HD Photo Location, and have created a folder in it called it "My Lightroom Photos". I have been able to create this, but cannot seem to ber able to make it my default when I open LR 3.5. I have to manually go in and change it. Is there a way that this can be changed to make it my default?

Since Windows normally places the pictures on a typical drive as "My Pictures" about four or five levels down from the root, any effort to import picture files into Lightroom requires multiple clicks to drill down to the "My Pictures" then (for example) year, month, date, etc.
Can I define a location as the default starting point to find the pictures? I don't see how to put that into presets. Or can a key shortcut be created to go straight to c:/users/name/mypictures/2013/April15 etc?

Having just installed Video Studio Pro X6 on a Windows 8 laptop, I have what may be a basic question about the folders the software creates automatically on installation.
By default, installation of the VS Pro X6 software placed in my C drive's Documents folder a folder called Corel Video Studio Pro along with a sub folder called 16.0 (and, I believe, a sub folder called My Projects, though it's conceivable that I added the My Projects subfolder manually and just forgot); the 16.0 subfolder contains a subfolder called DMF_TEMP, which, in turn, contains additional subfolders. After creating just a few short movies, the DMF_TEMP folders and subfolders already contain almost 4GB of data, and I worry about the folders eventually overwhelming my internal hard drive capacity. So I have two questions:
First, will the software eventually remove the presumably temporary files stored under DMF_TEMP, thus also removing concern about taxing my internal drive's storage capacity?
Second, is it possible without loss of simple functionality to configure VS Pro X6 so that the entire Video Studio Pro folder, along with its 16.0 and other subfolders, resides on an external hard drive, with much larger capacity?

How to set certain Civil 3D data folders to a network location. For example how can I set my default QTO categories, pay item and formula file paths to a network location?
I've figured out how to set Survey Database and Pipe Network Parts Catalog paths. It seems there should be some general configuration settings dialogue for all these paths somewhere. Is there? If not, is there a list of commands for configuring all the path settings?
This is for standalone clients not using Vault.

I'd like it if Paint.net's plugin folders were under the user profile, inside AppData.
Currently, the default method of trying new plugins is a bit of a pain, since every time you copy or delete the plugins, you have to go throug UAC.
Personally, I have made a symlink from under Paint.net's folder to my profile, but this only works on single-user machines. Additionally, every time I update Paint.net, I have to remake the symlink because the updater replaces it with a normal folder.

I had two 2013 folders, each with about 100 daily folders. The dates were differnt in each annual folder. I dragged one into the other. The folder where the daily folder was dragged from is now empty but those folders do not appear in the recieving folder. All the photos are still in the catalog, but do not show in the folders (left side panel).

I renamed a lot of my photo folders in Explore. Now in LR4, all these folders appears with an ?. I can't work on pictures from these folders - I get the message: File named xxx is offline or missing. It does not sync the parent folder. Nor does it sync the folder it self. If I right clik on a LR4 folder with a ?, and try to locate the folder, I only get the option to merge the identical folders. Is there any way to sort this. I can't restore the old folder names.

I have several Illustrator JavaScripts that I've written with the ESTK. A lot of these scripts involve resizing the artboard or artwork to specific sizes. Instead of forcing the user to manually input the dimensions they want into text fields, I just stored a half-dozen or so "presets" in an array.
Then they can select one of the presets from a dropdownlist, or go ahead and input a custom size. These presets are the same for multiple "resize" scripts, so it would be nice to store those presets in a separate file (i.e. presets.jsx) that my resize scripts could reference, so when I need to add or change a preset, I could just go to that one shared file, and all the scripts would be updated.
Is it possible to do that? If it is, a quick example of how to load the variables from another file.

I am using LR3. I appear to be digging a massive hole for myself trying to sort out the catalog. When I first got LR, I had initially added just a small number of files just to see how LR worked. At this time I was still completing sorting out my full photo collection in 'my pictures' which were also copied to two external hard drives. Once that work was completed, I imported a complete folder (some 4000 images) into LR. The folder/subfolders appeared in the folders panel but the sub folders I had initially imported were displayed with a ? and a message 'file is missing or offline' Going down the road of 'find missing folder' eventually led to my problems.
About 6 sub folders are involved so I eventually took the decision that it could be easier just to remove them so I could then re-import them from 'my pictures'. That hasn't worked out as planned. When I go into 'file' to import photos from 'my pictures' the missing sub folders are there but the images are 'greyed' as well as the import button. When I put the cursor onto one of the greyed-out images the message 'appears to be a duplicate of another photo already in catalog' appears.
how I can restore the 'missing' sub folders into the folders panel.

I'm running CS3 Extended on Windows XP (home)
When browsing images from Photoshop (ctr+o) the default view seems to be to display images within a folder in the "List" style (as opposed to "Tiles", "Icons", "Thumbnails" ect.). I'd really like to have them displayed as "Thumbnails" every time I browse images from PhotoShop, thus not having to change the view each time, but I can't seem to figure out to set "thumbnails" as the default view.
This is probably more an operating sysytem question than Photoshop but hopefully someone knows the remedy to this mild annoyance.
