Where is 'actions' stored, I want to transfer my new once from my Desktop (Mac Pro) to my Laptop (MacBookPro). But I can not find them, and can not find any 'Save actions' ether.

 

Have been looking under

/Users/me/Library/Application support/Adobe/Photoshop CS6/Presets/Actions

/Library/Application support/Adobe

 

And searched for .atn files, but nothing.

    At least in CS5 there are stored in Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings.

     

    Should be same location for CS6.

    I took the above from Adobe Factsheet.

     

    But I really don't know as if you look in (Windows) Program Files/Adobe Photoshop (64) bit/presets/actions you see the .atn files.

     

    So what it is someone may be able to clarify.

    When you save an Action Set (the folders of Actions in your Actions panel, you cannot save individual Actions), this will be saved as an ATN file. If you are not saving your Action Sets, they are temporarily stored as part of your preferences, in the file listed above Actions panel.psp (psp = PhotoShop Preference).
