Hi George,
It works for me, not sure what the problem might be. If you choose "Show Templates", Photoshop should open the folder where the template files are stored (the default location is ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Metadata Templates). Do you see your template files there?

Hi Paul,
No, there is nothing in the metadata folder!
I’m not surprised, as, after filling out the Make Template message box, and clicking OK, it fails to show the new name in the pull-down menu.
I’ve tried rebuilding the prefs, that didn’t do anything. Are there any specific files (those mysterious .plist??????) that I should throw out? Thanks,
George
I don’t know why it’s failing for you, but here’s a couple things to consider.
First, do you have the basic folder structure indicated by the path (~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Metadata Templates)? If so, can you create a file inside the Metadata Templates folder? This will help rule out a file permissions problem.
Secondly, do you have any unusual characters (specifically, non-ASCII characters) in the name of your hard disk, your account name, etc. that might cause the full path to your home folder to have non-ASCII characters in them? I’m not sure whether this would cause it to fail, but it may be a factor.
