Specify file save location on Mac?

Contributor ,
Jan 09, 2020 Jan 09, 2020

I have to create and save a lot of files.  They all need to go into the same place.  

 

If I could specify a save location, this would always be a 2-step process:

 

1. invoke save command;

2. click SAVE).

 

Instead it is a 4-step process:

 

1. invoke save command;

2. click "Choose a Different Folder" because the desired destination is not among the preselected locations;

3. manually navigate to desired destination

4. click save

 

 

These two extra steps add up to a lot of wasted time when creating a large number of documents.

 

Thanks in advance for any fix or workaround.

You can use the Action Wizard tool to create a simple action- save to local folder. You can re-name the file(s) as part of the action, if you like.

You can apply the action to a file or folder of files.
