File brush mystery

Mac OS X 10.5.8

I just upgraded from PSE 8 to 9.  After the installation of 9, I've migrated on all files of plugins and brushes I had installed in the earlier version.  All came over fine with the exception of a single brushes file, named MyBrushes.  It is actually a double Brushes.abr special effects but with a few custom brushes, I made a while back and can't lose.  I don't remember exactly when I created the MyBrushes file and I don't know why he does double duty with effect special Brushes.abr.  (Maybe that I duplicated Brushes.abr effect, installed my custom brushes and renamed the file MyBrushes? )  I can't think why I would have).

The problem is that I can't locate the MyBrushes file so I can migrate to the PSE 8 PSE 9.  I dragged all the brush files of PSE 8 off PSE 8 then presets > Brushes is now empty.  Yet, when I revive PSE 8, the MyBrushes file is always available!

I also 1) deleted the PSE 8 each folder 2) search prefs in the application of PSE 8 and 3) did a search of the entire system of MyBrushes.  I came up empty every time, and yet the file is always to me clearly when I revive PSE 8 and access the Brush tool.

Where else can the file MyBrushes may be hiding?  I really don't want to lose my custom brushes if there is no way to avoid this.

TIA!

You open your search system to find hidden and system files?  Some files are hidden and cannot be searched by default.

  • Where should I put the file brush airbrush?

    I use CS4. Or is there a way to simply import it?

    Thank you!

    More likely:

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Presets\Brushes

    If I'm not mistaken, simply drag and drop. You probably have to restart PS once the file is there.

  • Recovering files TDMS with DIAdem connectivity library

    I was in the situation where my application dies and I have unsaved TDMS files. I need to recover the data in them.

    The logic of file is mysterious. For a file, I have three: *. PDM, *. TDMS_Index and *. TDMS ~. The last one is always the largest, so I suspect it's my data, as well as scaffolding maybe. If I save and close my account, I'd end up with a well trained PDM file. Unfortunately, my client is to kill my request so I don't ever have a chance of correctly, save and close the file. Yet, I need to recover the data. Is there a magic I can do to recover my data?


  • Import and export all the brushes in a single step?

    As I work with the actions of Photoshop that claim to replace my brushes through the brushes compensation I am looking for a way to export my brushes and safe in a folder, perform the action and then import my own brushes in a single step and not step by step... brush to brush.

    Can someone useful?

    Hi the franks.

    As far as I understand, looking for ways to to export and import your brushes.

    Here are the steps:

    • Go to the window menu in Photoshop > choose Manager of Preset
    • Select all brushes > click on Save Set > choose the location where you want to save this file brush
    • The tasks that you want to
    • Again go to the preset manager > choose Load > select this brush file that you saved earlier and it would load your brushes.

    Kind regards

  • Is there a limit to how many brushes you have in Photoshop CS5 Extended?

    I want to download some brushes and I would like to know if there is a limit.

    I doubt it.  You can have a LOT of brush sets, and each set can contain a LOT of brushes.  You would only take charge a little at a time.

    This shows you the locations of the files (we do not know what operating system you use)

    Preference file functions, names, places | Photoshop CS5

    Note: if you are using Windows, you will need to make hidden files and folders visible to access the App Data path

    I have a lot of files brush, and to make life easier, I rename them with meaningful names so that they appear in a logical order.  I follow enough of the file name to identify the source of good.

    The standard Photoshop help pages are usually better that most third-party guides,'ll find you on the web.

  • RGB mysteriously transformed into sepia when exporting PS CC.

    I am newer to PS creative cloud. I work on a MacBook Pro. The research of a few essential tips.

    When you work with Photoshop, you work with your files in RGB or CMYK?

    And then, you export the file in RGB or CMYK?

    I encountered some problems with files RBG mysteriously transformed into a ghostly sepia color when I emailed, downloaded or had turned into prints.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Looks like you save in a color space such as ProPhotoRGB, that do not support most web and mobile devices. To do this, you will need to save color sRGB space.

    Many people work and save RGB and only use CMYK when you print.

  • Brush double adjustment

    Hello

    I'm going through old custom brushes, and many of them have the choice of "double brush" checked on in the Panel "brush".

    As I understand it, you have:

    Your current peset brush

    and then the 'double' brush is checked, so basically there are 2 brushes overlap eachother.

    What I'm trying to do is to turn off the 'current' brush, leaving only the "brush double" selected. I hope this makes sense.

    At the very least, I would try to find a way to identify what name of the brush double is and perhaps identify what brush set belongs to. I know that if you pass the ontop of the cursor of the vignette Lud of brush on the right side of the Panel brush, that a ToolTip is displayed, giving you his name. But this does not allow you to select this brush, and it does not tell you what file brush it comes. I really need to find a way to actually select. Without file brush knowingwhat's that there seems to be no way to access this special double brush.

    Anyone know if there is a way to know that?

    In CC 2014 so I just highlight double brush (of a brush using double-headed brush) in the list of features of brush in the Panel forms, I can see the second brush, with a blue square end around, in terms of brush tip.  If you then select the brush tip shape title, with double brush not selected, you can see the main brush in map of brush with a blue square around it...

  • Cannot free up disk space on drive c.

    Hello

    I have an older version of Windows XP on my computer and despite the use of the function of disk cleanup, add/remove programs functions and Windows components, so to try to defragment the computer, I receive the message that the computer is low disk space.  I took all the programs that I don't use and attempted to take off from documents unnecessary, games, etc., as well, but when I check the C: drive on the 'Properties' tab, it shows almost the entire hard drive used.  I do not know what but because I even do not play a lot of games on it, have images or music programs and I can't understand what is on the hard drive of the computer.  If it of the adware or spyware, I can not say because when I tried to install an adware/spyware detector, he cannot do that because there is not enough disk space!  Obviously, something takes all the space, but how I tell me what it is and more important still, how do I get my computer?  Thank you.

    I have this problem as well, and the question is larger than what these people are saying. If you open the folder and ctrl + a to select all, then go to properties, it will show that the contents of the folder is only about 5 or 6 concerts, 7 on it. the other 60 + concerts which takes the file are mysteriously non-existent. I have no idea what is causing this problem, but I can promise you that no amount of deletion it will manage because the memory is not be overtaken by what is actually stored on your computer.

    It sounds like you're looking in a directory (folder) that includes hidden files and hidden folders.  What is the name of the "folder" you are watching?

    While you have the mystery open in Windows Explorer, click Tools > Folder Options.  Select the view tab.  Scroll down and select the option "Show the hidden files and folders" and uncheck the box (a little further down) to "Hide protected operating system files."  Click OK.

    The "disappeared" 60 GB now appears?

    See http://www.edbott.com/weblog/2005/05/tip-of-the-day-show-hidden-files-with-a-simple-script/

    I suggest that you cancel the above changes when you are finished.

    If you still can't find the missing stuff, download and run JDiskReport.  This will show you what takes up space on your hard drive.

  • How to recover Windows Journal?

    I recently bought a laptop. It is pre-loaded with Vista Home Premium, and many other goodies including a program called Windows Journal.

    I've even more recently updated for Win 7 Home Premium. While remaining in Vista, my copy of Windows Journal (under Program Files) has mysteriously disappeared. I thought that the upgrade would restore it, but it didn't.

    I don't know why it disappeared in the first place, but I was wondering if there is a way for me to get it back?

    Try this...

    1 - type features on the start menu, then choose 'or turn off Windows features turn on" ".

    2. check the Tablet PC components (lights), and then click OK.
