Mac question: where are extensions stored

[susiegb]

I'm shortly going to be upgrading to a new Intel iMac from a G5 desktop Mac. I need to know where all the extensions are stored on the Mac, so I can make sure I don't lose them! (Still using Dreamweaver MX2004)

Can anyone let me know?

thanks

Macintosh OS X:
Hard disk: Users: <username>: Library: Application Support: Macromedia: Dreamweaver <version>: Configuration

But the extension files will be spread throughout the config folder. You are better off backing up the .mxp's of the extensions instead of the configuration folder.

susie,

The original .mxp file can be anywhere! You should search all of your
folders for .mxp files.

If you disable all of your extensions, DW will generate alternate .mxp
files from the .mxi, but these may differ from the original.

HTH,
Randy

You can find the .mxp files located in the following locations

Applications:Macromedia Extension Manager:Configuration:Extensions

also check this folder in case you downloaded any and placed them here

Applications:Macromedia Extension Manager:Downloaded Extensions:

or just search for all .mxp files on your machine as Randy suggested ; )

Thanks everyone. I can't believe I didn't think of the doing a search for all .mxp files ...
