Disable info pop-up when dragging layers? (Photoshop CC)

There's a little box that pops up when dragging layers in Photoshop CC that shows the unit info (pixels/inches/etc.) when dragging a layer. I don't need it and I find it distracting. I can't find any options for disabling it. Are there any?

Yes there is, but make a note of this in case you need it enabled in the future. It's a HUD (Heads Up Display) that allows you to see the transformation values in front of you while adjusting without having to glance over to the same values in the Info Panel.
Edit menu > Preferences > Interface > Show Transformation values: Never
will turn it off.

Pixelation when importing layered Photoshop file

Just brimming with questions tonight:
I'm importing layered Photoshop images into FCP, with the individual layers creating seperate clips in the timeline. So far, so good. But the clips are looking very pixelated compared to in PS. The document size in PS is set to the pixel dimensions in FCP, i.e. 720x576 for DV PAL.
Any suggestions for what's happening? Does it have anything to do with setting square vs aspect ratio pixels in PS? (I'm using pixel aspect ratio D1/DV PAL at 1.07)
Any help much appreciated!

the difference between PS and FCP is mindboggling
It should be different (although not really mind boggling). In Photoshop, you're seeing the image at it's native resoution ... in FCP, once you place it in the Timeline, you're seeing it at the Sequence resolution and with all the restrictions of the codec your Sequence is set for.

Developer toolbar won't disable - keeps popping up when i hit shift, and is not visible in extentions list nor add-on list. how do i uninstall

for some reason, i now have a developer toolbar, even though i haven't installed this myself. what's even weirder is that it pops up every time i hit shift - thus the lack of capital letters in this post - and it doesn't show up on my extention- nor plug-in list, so i have no idea how to disable it. it shows up under the tools tab and i can shut it down there, but it shows up again whenever i hit shift.

hello Kuzuri, firefox has an in-built developer toolbar which can be brought up with the keyboard shortcut shift+f2. so this is just a guess, but maybe your keyboard's f2 key is hanging...
in case you cannot solve it that way, please enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''devtools.toolbar.enabled''' - double-click the entry and toggle its value to '''false'''. this will generally disable the developer toolbar after you restart the browser.

No way to STOP bookmark folders popping-open when dragging something across them

Bookmark folders in the bookmarks SIDEbar pop-open if an image is dragged across them not-quickly-enough. This is true even if the image is being dragged from, say, the Finder's desktop over to another Finder location or Finder folder, or to some other application (e.g. to be dropped into a Filemaker record) - and merely passing-over a Firefox window that happens to also be open though NOT being the active app. I'm told by Firefox support that there's no way to disable this "feature".
Furthermore, the folder then remains open, often obscuring all the other bookmark-sidebar folders until it's manually closed.
And finally, if the bookmarks sidebar isn't even open, this drag-across activity will often open BOTH the bookmarks sidebar AND whatever folder was the dragging cursor's accidental victim.
It's fine to have this folder pop-open as an OPTION, but it would be MUCH preferable to have the OPTION to shut-off this behavior.

Please note that the Mac's OS X has this folder pop-open feature, but (1) it is an OPTION that can be disabled in the Finder Preferences. And even if enabled, the user can set how much delay ioccurs before folders pop-open.
Options GOOD! :-)
[To open immediately, Mac users have the option set and simply press the space-bar.]

Reader XI pops up when dragging PDF file to email

System: Windows 7. Three windows are involved in this scenario:
1. Some document or other in Adobe reader XI, in the background
2. Windows Explorer on one side of the screen
3. New Outlook email being composed on the other side of the screen.
Sequence: I've found the PDF file that I want to send to someone, so I drag it from the Windows Explorer window to the Outlook window to attach it to the email I'm writing. If my mouse pointer goes over any open Reader XI window, that window immediately pushes to the front, obscuring the email window which I was aiming for.
Of course there are many workarounds for this, but the behaviour is both annoying and unnecessary. If I want to drop the PDF file in an obscured reader window, I can hover over the icon in the taskbar to bring the window to the front. This "me, me, me!" behaviour of Reader XI is crass.

Safari 5 changed a few things internally, and it broke BrowserPlus. A patch was made last week and is available here:
Mac:
http://github.com/downloads/browserplus/platform/BrowserPlus2.9.2full.dmg
Windows:

Otherwise, you can uninstall BrowserPlus. The latest instructions for that are here:

How do I disable the Firefox icon when dragging a shortcut onto my desktop?

Is this about internet shortcuts (.URL files) on the desktop?
Do you still have the shortcuts and only the icons have changed or are those gone as well?
If you are referring to tab or windows that were open and restored automatically when you start Firefox then there has been a problem with the sessionstore.js file.
In that case you can try to restore a previous version of the sessionstore.js file.

Is it possible to disable the "pop" sound when adjusting the volume?

It's just plain annoying.

Thankfully, the solution is very simple. To silence the volume-changing beep, hold down the shift key while pressing the volume-up or volume-down key. (This doesn’t work when you use your mouse to select the volume menu on the right side of your menu bar.) If you’re using an iBook or a PowerBook, and you’ve set the Keyboard & Mouse preference pane to require the fn key in addition to the volume-changing key, don’t worry: adding the shift key still silences the beep and doesn’t require too much in the way of finger gymnastics.

Cannot see items move when dragged

All of a sudden I cannot see objects move when dragged in Photoshop CC Mac. They wind up in a new position when dragged but I just can't see them move as I drag them. This would seem to be a preference but do not know where to change it.

When confronted with unexplainable Photoshop behaviour restoring Preferences (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved) is an option:

Photoshop CS4 crashes when I drag layers

I received my brand new Macbook pro just the other day. I installed all of my old applications, including Photoshop, gearing up for a new web project. After working fine for a few days, Photoshop started crashing frequently. I found that the main culprit was when I tried to drag layers within a document. Dragging layers just sends Photoshop into a tizzy and causes a quick crash. Does anybody have any experience with this or know of any fixes?

It happened with me when I used to use elements 8, from the very 1st day after I got it from adobe website, so I found it was best to just save my work after each step. but not with photoshop

Disable Properties Panel Popping up When Making Shape?

As title says, can you Disable Properties Panel Popping up When Making Shape?
Sorry if this is a silly question, I can't seem to find the anwser anywhere. Whenever I make any shape it keeps bringing the panel up.

As I don't like the way it covers the image, I docked it on top of the layers panel, and made my own workspace. I've read there is a new contextual menu to the panel on Photoshop 14.1

Photoshop crashes when rearranging layers in layer window.

Photoshop crashes when rearranging layers in layer window. I'm using Photoshop CS4 Extended on a MacBook Pro purchased 5 months ago. I have tried restarting the computer. I am able to rearrange layers with the hot keys.

Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated?
As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by keeping command-alt-shift pressed on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/onyx.html
Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.
Does turning off OpenGL in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

I'm running this on a 10.5.6ppc machine.
Thanks.
PS. Anyone having issues with this forum software? I was running spell check and got this big blank box covering up a bunch of the message area.

Few of us are qualified to read a crash report, but the Adobe engineers who do need the entire crash report, not just the few lines you pasted here. Don't try pasting a whole crash report here, just make sure it gets sent to Adobe and/or Apple when the crash actually happens.
Thanks. With other software I've been able to just provide the thread that crashed and get feedback.

With 4.5 GB try setting the allowance to 70% or even 80%. Don't bother quoting absolute numbers, they change dynamically all the time, it's not a static figure. You are just allowing (not allocating) Photoshop to use up to that percentage of available memory at any given time, after the OS and any other running applications have taken what they need.
Understood. I've never seen the figure change so I was assuming it doesn't. The 2150 figure is 70%.
More meaningful would be to know how much available space you have on your boot drive and whether you have a dedicated, physically separate drive designated as your primary scratch disk drive, etc.
As I mentioned above, the boot drive has 115GB free, the scratch disk has 103GB free. In addition, the drive designated as the scratch disk is also the drive that has the working files on it.
Thanks.
PS. I do have quite a bit of experience with Macs and Photoshop. My post count here doesn't seem to show I've been here much... looks like after the forum change my post count reset.

Recently when opening up Photoshop, my Adobe CS6 Master Collection pops up saying there's some kind of offer going on the Creative Cloud. For awhile I was just able to close out of it and go about my business on Photoshop, but now it's not allowing me to open Photoshop unless I sign up/pay. I'm quite confused? I really NEED to have access to Photoshop ASAP.

It says in the corner of my itunes account that i still have money from my itunes gift card that i redeemed, but when i buy a song my billing info pops up. Why can't I use the money?

It says in the corner of my itunes account that i still have money from my itunes card that i redeemed, but when i try to buy a song, the billing info. pops up. Why can't i use the money on my card?

It is simply asking you to verify your account info. Select None for the CC.
It will still pay with your gift card balance.

How do I disable the webpage preview that pops up when I hover my mouse over a tab?

I don't know why this started today, but it is driving me nuts!
I was surfing the net, when all of a sudden I noticed that whenever I hovered my mouse over one of my tabs, a (poorly rendered) preview of the webpage popped up from my mouse. I really do not need this feature. I don't need to have a mini-webpage preview of another tab.
Please, how do I disable this feature?
*note: I have disabled all my add-ons, and still nothing. I disabled my hardware acceleration, and still nothing. Please!

I've never noticed that. Do these old threads shed any light?
