Hi, in the course of my working day I use Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat, InDesign, Word, Excel, and most of the inbuilt Mac apps; the point is, I'm in and out of many applications and saving files all over the place.
The issue I've noticed recently since using some of the newer versions of Mac OS (I'm currently on 10.11.6) is that when I navigate to a particular folder through a dialog box to open a file, then perhaps make a change to the file, save then close it and then go to open another file in the same location, the dialog box defaults to a location other than where I was a moment ago. If I hit 'Cancel' and then go to 'Open File...' again, it goes back to where I was originally and I can then open the next file.
So my question is this - why does the system not remember where I was when I try to open another file the first time I hit open file but it does when I cancel and hit 'Open File...' for a second time?
This issue is starting to drive me crazy as I spend most of my production time navigating to folders time and time again. I know I could just drag shortcuts into the 'open' dialog box sidebar but after a while it gets really congested as I do open a lot of file in a day.
I think this is a system issue rather than just my iMac as I use two different iMacs in two different places each day and both have the same issue. They both run exactly the same software and versions.
Can anyone help please?
J.
