Just upgraded from Elements 5 to PSCS3. I also just upgraded cameras, so I bought Peter iNova’s e-book on the Nikon D80. The e-book contains hundreds of actions which I loaded into PSCS3 one at a time, as it won’t let me use Shift+arrow key or Ctrl+click to select more than one action at a time to load. What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried selecting all the action files in pathfinder, then dragging them into Photoshop?

A quick Google search reveals "Path Finder is an innovative file browser and manager" from Cocoatech. This might be a good thing were I using OS X on an Apple box. Before your reply, Mathias, I’d never heard of it.

Sorry; I didn’t mention I’m using an Intel Core 2 Duo PC; Windows MCE; 4 gigs ram; 500 gigs raid 0 stripe; 500 gigs external media vault. All drivers up-to-date; nVidia desktop manager disabled (thanks to PS Lightroom users for that tip); PSCS3 install totally uneventful.

I do use Explorer2 1.6.5.3 LITE from zabkat.com (highly recommended); I am able to select all the actions in this program or Windows Explorer but could not find a way to paste them all in at once.

Heh, I meant Explorer, sorry. Drag’n’drop into Photoshop.
