(If you already have custom queries in the new version, you may be asked if you would like to merge the contents of the two folders.) Go ahead and replace the folder with the one on the clipboard.

Your operating system should warn you that you are pasting over an existing folder.

In my example, that would be en_US (US English). In my example, that would be Version 8.0 (CS6).

In my example, I’m copying my Find-Change queries and Word import presets from Version 7.5 (CS5.5).

Select the folders with the presets you’d like to copy.

NOTE: Version 7.0 is CS5, Version 7.5 is CS5.5 and Version 8.0 is CS6.

Win Vista: C:UsersAppDataRoamingAdobeInDesignVersion en_US.

Win XP:C:Documents and SettingsApplication DataAdobeInDesignVersion en_US.

Mac: /Users//Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version /en_US.

Let’s say I want to copy my custom Find & Change queries and my custom Word-to-InDesign style maps from InDesign CS5.5 to InDesign CS6. I think this post is really for me, so that I can answer the question more gracefully next time it comes up!

A student asked me about this in an Adobe InDesign CS6 class today, and I fumbled around looking for the folder, googling and generally wasting time trying to remember the folder where they are stored. The bad news? I can never remember where the files are stored. Here’s the good news: we can copy our custom presets to a new version of the sofware-or share our current presets with our colleagues-because they are just files stored on our hard drives. Despite the fact that I’ve used every single of version of InDesign, I’m inevitably surprised when I start laying out a document in a new version and realize my favorite custom presets aren’t available. I’m a big fan of InDesign presets, and use them quite a bit. By Barb Binder, Adobe Certified Instructor on InDesign
