  Motion 5 Content Folder Location?

  Posted by David Intrator on July 31, 2011 at 1:11 pm

  I’ve noticed there is content in Motion 4 that is not included in Motion 5. I’d like to include that content in Motion 5
  However, I can’t seem to locate the folder in which Motion 5 content resides.

  My boot drive Library/Application Support does not include a motion folder.

  And my user/application support does show a motion/content folder, but nothing is inside, even though I clearly can
  access content in motion 5.

  Any ideas?

  Hopefully I’m just overlooking something obvious.

  Thanks.

  Motion 5’s content is located in the app package. But go ahead and put any content you want in the user/library/app supp path -it should show up.

  Mark,

  I’m trying to put some of my older 3rd party templates in motion 5s content=template media folder so they show up with the other templates but I can’t find the root folder. I followed your advice above but I don’t have a motion 5 folder in the app support folder only the FCP folder are there.

  Any suggestions?

  thx, Todd

  PS; I’m running Motion 5.0.6
