save actions

how to save actions on Photoshop cs6 when you have to change the hard drive?

[Benjamin Root · Accepted solution]

To save your Actions: Select an Action Set then Action Menu > Save Actions... Choose the destination. You'll need to do this for each Action Set. When ready to load in Actions: Action Menu > Load Actions

thank you

That I’m not sure. I suggest you post that question over in Lightroom​

Why would my Save Action be grayed out? (I'm still in CS5).

[Benjamin Root]

You have to save an Action Set, Individual Actions can’t be saved.

Thanks. Another question: why can't I set a color for an action when that's available in the action options. It acts like it's functioning, but then the color doesn't apply.

Hmmm, Action color labeling only seems to work in button mode (Action Menu > Button Mode). Not sure if this is by design or a flaw.

It seems I have to switch to button mode to see the colors, but then have to turn it off if I want to update the color of any of the actions... seems really awkward...
