I can't find my screen shots. They used to appear on my desktop. I hear the capture sound, but cannot locate them. Can anyone help me locate them?
MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
AFAIK, they'll go to Documents unless you've chosen another location, using something like TinkerTool.
You can set it back to your Desktop by opening Terminal and entering the following 2 commands:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ~/Desktop/
killall SystemUIServer
Thank you keg55!! I have never entered a command in Terminal before, but this did solve my problem. I appreciate your help!🙂
Thanks, baltwo. I couldn't find any in my docements. Thanks for your suggestion.🙂
Keg55,
This worked the first time I did it, but now I can't find the images again. I tried adding the command again, but I can't get it to work now.
You can change ~/Desktop/ to any path you want like ~/Movies/. Maybe try a different path for now. Also, write down the screen image file name so you can do a search for it using SpotLight.
And remember to do the killall SystemUIServer.
Here is the Link I found that information at.
Thanks, keg55. I will keep trying. I appreciate you help! The link is useful.
