About a week ago, you asked the same question and you were explaned that you need to save the action set yourself to that folder before it appears there. What's the point of asking questions if you don't read the answers? -- Johan W.

Unless "Maya" isn't your real >name then there may be a chance that you may forget <bg> No, don't follow uncle Joe's advice. He's a bit slow. What you do is saving it immediately also on another drive, in a file properly named. Then it is protected against losing it when reinstalling PS or replacing an image, or reformatting or whatever. >> Stay informed about: actions question...

Andrew, that was it, I didn't know I had to save them.. (and you can save all actions in one set at once, this is cool...) I wonder why they don't get saved automatically.... (the path to the actions the next poster mentions that I asked about in a previous OP was from a different computer... thanks again... >> Stay informed about: actions question...

She seems to have problems understanding the answers supplied in the previous thread, and also in the one about re-sizing and resolution. Perhaps her reader only picks up some of the postings or it might be the onset of Alzheimers, or maybe she is just stupider than most. Roy G >> Stay informed about: actions question...
