Profile Location, Mac OSX

[Gary Ferguson]

I'm using OSX 10.6.5 with Photoshop CS4. When I download profiles using the recommended location (Library/Colorsync/Profiles) they're not appearing under my list of proof colors in CS4. And search as I might I can't find the folder that has the list of color profile that actually does appear! Anyone any idea where I might find the profile folder that CS4 is actually using? Thanks.

Gary,
Profiles can be found in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles (and then in the different folders there) or in ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles  (~ is your home folder).

Let me know if it helps…

Mine show up here -

Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Color > Profiles

Correct!
I would add that in the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles folder, there's an alias that points to the folder you mentioned in your post above.
