After hiding photoshop and returning, all collapsed document windows uncollapse

Hi,
I'm on Photoshop CS6 with my documents in the 'float all in wondows' view. I have say 20 documents open, 19 collapsed into the dock with the one document left i'm working on. I hide photoshop to go to the desktop, click back into photoshop when done. As i return to photoshop all of the previously collapsed documents reappear one by one and fill up my workspace. I then need to collapse all of my documents once again to leave just the one I'm working on. This was never an issue in earlier versions, does anyone know how to override? thanks.

I'm assuming you're on a Mac. That is a Mac OS native feature. I'm afraid you can't disable that from Photoshop.
Alternatively, 2 workarounds I see here:
Instead of 'floating' your documents individually, why don't you tab them together and switch between them using tabs?
This way, all your documents will be open within 1 parent container, you can switch between them using Cmd + ` or Shift + Cmd + ` (backwards)
Another option you could try in your current workflow is not to 'Hide Photoshop'. Set a 'Hot Corner' in Mac OS to 'Show Desktop'. For example, the way my workflow is setup is - it will show Desktop when I move my mouse over to the extreme top left corner. To do this, Mac OS > System Preferences > Desktop & Screensaver > Screensaver > Hot Corners

Premiere pro cc cloud problems, after installing photoshop I lost all my premiere files!!!!

Hi,
after installing photoshop, I lsot all my premiere pro data, even autosafe and stuff. I do back up but I didn;t for past 4 days and lsot hours of work. Do you have any idea what is the problem? I have single program subscription and use photoshop trial.
Thanks

Yes, an Archive and Install will not erase the disk or your files. If you use the option to preserve user accounts and preferences those will be transferred into the newly created system. However, your existing system is a failed installation so if you do another Archive and Install it cannot transfer your user account because it is not in the existing system. Plus you will need sufficient free space on the hard drive for yet another system - about 6-8 GBs.
Once you backup your personal data and your Home folder, I would suggest you just erase the hard drive, reinstall OS X from scratch, then copy your Home folder backup to the newly installed system. These articles, How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install and Mac OS X- How to recover a home folder (directory), explain the process. Although written for an Archive and Install scenario it is essentially the same procedure you would have to follow.
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.

How to rename content type on web site level and underneath all the document libraries using powershell?

Hello
I wantto rename content type on web site level and underneath all the document libraries using powershell, please let me know how can do this?
I saw this url
http://suryapulipati.blogspot.in/2011/08/rename-content-type-name-in-list-using.html, but I want to change everything from Web Site, subsite and underneath document libraries. Because if you try to change on any on document library, it will be applicable
for that document library, if you change on web level then underneath document libraries content type names not updated automatically.
Please advise
Avi

Not sure with powershell.
I could help you out with Server Side or Web Services though.

How can I quit (close) Photoshop and keep all windows so that the next time I open Photoshop the fil

How can I quit (close) Photoshop and keep all windows so that the next time I open Photoshop all the files that I had open are there already in the same position as when I closed Photoshop?
I've been a Fireworks user for over 10 years and just switched to Photoshop. I cannot find a setting that will enable all my file windows to reopen when I quit Photoshop. This is really a problem since I often work on several files at the same time.
Please let me know if the feature exists or point me to where I can post a message for a new feature to be implemented. The feature is a must for any designer working on large projects.
Thanks!

There is no such functionality. You could perhaps create a script that stores that info in a custom text file and arranges them accordingly in the workspace, but that's as good as it gets...

Search for a word and return all the lines (row) from the text file..

Hi all,
I need a help on how to search a string from the text file and returns all the lines (rows) where the searched string are found. I have included the code, it finds the indexof the string but it does not return the entire line. I would appreciate your any help.
public class SearchWord
     public static void main(String[] args){
     //Search String
     String searchText = "man";
     //File to search (in same directory as .class file)
     String fileName = "C:\\Workspace\\MyFile.txt";
     //StringBuilder allows to create a string by concatinating
     //multiple strings efficiently.
     StringBuilder sb =
     new StringBuilder();
     try {
     //Create the buffered input stream, which reads
     //from a file input stream
     BufferedInputStream bIn =
     new BufferedInputStream(
     new FileInputStream(fileName));
     //Holds the position of the last byte we have read
     int pos = 0;
     //Holds #of available bytes in our stream
     //(which is the file)
     int avl = bIn.available();
     //Read as long as we have something
     while ( avl != 0 ) {
     //Holds the bytes which we read
     byte[] buffer = new byte[avl];
     //Read from the file to the buffer
     // starting from <pos>, <avl> bytes.
     bIn.read(buffer, pos, avl);
     //Update the last read byte position
     pos += avl;
     //Create a new string from byte[] we read
     String strTemp =
     new String(buffer);
     //Append the string to the string builder
     sb.append(strTemp);
     //Get the next available set of bytes
     avl = bIn.available();
     catch(IOException ex) {
     ex.printStackTrace();
     //Get the concatinated string from string builder
     String fileText = sb.toString();
     int indexVal = fileText.indexOf(searchText);
     //Displays the index location in the file for a given text.
     // -1 if not found
     if (indexVal == -1)
          System.out.println("No values found");
     else
          System.out.println("Search for: " + searchText);     }
}

Hi, you can use servlet class and use this method to get the whole line of searched string. You can override the HttpServlet to treat that class as servlet.
public class ReportAction extends HttpServlet {
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
//write your whole logic.
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("your file name"));
String line = "";
while(line = br.readLine() != null) {
    if(line.contains("your search string")) {
        System.out.println("The whole line, row is :"+line);
}

I had all photos on a Windows desktop. Got a mac laptop, installed LR5, and put all images from Windows onto an external hard drive. When I go to import them into LR on the Mac, they are all locked. Help, please. Thanks

I had all photos on a Windows desktop. Got a mac laptop, installed LR5, and put all images from Windows onto an external hard drive. When I go to import them into LR on the mac, they are all locked. Help, please!

"I plugged the external into the Mac and moved a folder of images onto the desktop. It looks like it went from read only to not locked. Is this possible?"
Yes, that's exactly what happened. If you buy another drive, you could copy from your existing drive to the new and your files will be read/write. The new drive will have to be formatted as an HFS drive (that's the Mac's format). If you need to format it, you use Disk Utility which is in the Utilities folder on your Mac. Be careful with that -- it wipes out whatever is currently on the drive. Make sure you format the right drive.
I keep all my images on an external drive, too. In fact, I have two matching drives and sync them so I always have a backup.

Copy your iTunes Library from your Old computer, or it’s Backup, to your New computer...
See Here for one way
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Or...
From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

Faulty panel-display after hiding photoshop 13.0 on mac os 10.6.8

Good day!
If I hide Photoshop 13.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8 Configurator panels will not display correctly again until restarting Photoshop. (see image, left after starting the application, right after hiding and showing it)
Can any of you offer some insight on what may cause this and how it might be remedied?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I know how to reproduce this problem.
Please don’t retest this to avoid wasting your time.
If I click “Hide Photoshop” directly in Photoshop, then this bug doesn’t occur.
However, if I go to another product and then select “Hide others”, then this bug occurs.
This is an already known bug and thanks Zhengping Wang forward this related information to me.
I am sorry to say this bug is not fixed yet.
Thanks

Looking for PS Script to Save and Close All Open Documents

I used ACR and CS5 to process my Nikon D3 NEF files. I would like a script that would save all open documents (witin PS) with the highest possible quality (12). I've found several scripts that will close all open documents with save but cannot figure out how to implement a save script.
For example, I may have 20 converted .jpeg files open. I would like to run a script to save & close all open documents.
Is it possible? Can someone post an example working script?

Take a look at the image processor, under the scripts menu.

After installing Photoshop CC 2014 all "Open With" references are gone?

Hi!
I installed Photoshop CC 2014 and uninstalled Photoshop CC.
I also check the Bridge -> Preferences -> File association settings: There is always "Photoshop" mentioned. So far it looks fine.
So no NEF or PSD file are linked to Photoshop CC 2014. Neither it is displayed in the "Open With" dialog. But Photoshop CC 2014 should be displayed there.
I would like to add any screenshots here, but the add image dialog showns me only an empty dialog :-(
So please fix that issue.
Actually, I've to open the file by starting Photoshop and navigate to the files all the time. That is really annoying.
Regards

No one?
I would really need help about this.
I can't believe that no one had this problem.
Thank you

I just brought iMac OS x version 10.7, when I try to run Scottrader Streaming quotes, it constantly locks and causes all the other windows frozen. please tell me what should I do, it looks like Apple iMac platform is not good for online trading. thanks

I recently brought a iMac OS X version 10.7 PC, when I try to run Scott Trader real time streaming quotes, it contantly *****, and causes all other widowns frozen, please help me to resolve this problem, or i have to give up this PC and return it to the store....
thanks

I use e-trade and a couple of times, years back, I found them behind the Java updates.
So, now I install new Java platforms on my backup disk and test the streaming data on that first because I know it will be over-written that evening with my nightly backup.
Of course, since I began doing that there hasn't been a problem. Do the same with printer driver updates.
Anyway, call ScottTrade and howl! Tell them how many Macs are out there and why aren't they in Apple Developers Program?
