[HHH]

I don't have that option

Oh, same topic as this one by the same user?!

Location of user actions

Do you know on Mac Os where are the Actions Stored? I'm trying to back up the ones I created

[HHH]

I thought I was replying to your response, not creating a new topic

It was splitted into a new topic...

[ohrenkino]

Yes. That original thread describes in many cases the Windows version.

As described in the linked thread

Export Action Group

Is there a way to export action groups? I tried this, Action Group export, but it does not display 'save configuration' best

• the function is different on the Mac.

[HHH]

Ok, so no info about how to do it on mac

Thanks

[ohrenkino]

What?
AFAIK it is described in documentation:

Preferences and Configuration

You can configure many areas of Mp3tag via the preferences window at Mp3tag → Preferences… or ⌘ , General [Preferences → General] Startup Folder Here you can specify the startup behavior of Mp3tag. None starts with an empty File List. Previous starts with the folder which was loaded the last time you’ve used Mp3tag. Other… lets you choose a explicit folder that is loaded on startup. Genres Use standard genres If enabled, Mp3tag lists the standard genres in the genre field on the Tag Pane…

Exporting and importing preferences settings

Exporting the settings and importing on another Mac (or the same) is possible via the defaultscommand in Terminal.app. To export the settings you'd use

defaults export app.mp3tag.Mp3tag ~/Desktop/Mp3tagSettings.plist

and to import you'd use

defaults import app.mp3tag.Mp3tag ~/Desktop/Mp3tagSettings.plist
defaults delete app.mp3tag.Mp3tag SecurityScopedBookmarks

The last command is necessary to remove data that is specific to the Mac you've exported from.

Please note, that Mp3tag's settings are also part of every Time Machine backup you're doing and are restored if you restore from a backup.
