How do I get multiple files/photos to stay open in CS3/mac snow leopard .7

I just switched over to a new mac book pro with snow leopard (version .7 I think). When working in Photoshop CS3 Extended, I can't seem to keep more than one file/photo open at a time.  I have one open, then I try to open a second one and the one that had been open just closes.  Can't find it minimized on the dock or anything - it just closes.  This is craziness for photoshop. 
Anyone else have this issue?  What is the fix?

It is not possible to see two open documents side by side while you're in Tabbed Mode (duh!).  You need to
GET OFF tab mode!
That's what guru Chris Cox has been trying to tell you from the very beginning (post #1).
So Uncheck the preference to Open Documents as Tabs,
Photoshop menu > Preferences > Interface > Panels & Documents > Open Documents as Tabs
then set your Screen Mode to Standard Screen Mode
You really should read the User Guide.  Download the ENTIRE HELP file as a PDF from the Adobe Help site and study it carefully.

  • How can I get Lion 10.7.5 to open Address book from Snow leopard 10.6

    The Snow Leopard 10.6.3 address book is version 5.0.1. I don't know the version of the Lion 10.7.5 address book.

    Command + option + R
    After 15 minutes of downloading from the web, it seems to do the same thing as:
    Command + R
    in other words, it still wants to install Mountain Lion and not Lion.
    Any other thoughts?

    how to set adobe acrobat 9 pro as pdf default program on mac snow leopard OS?

    I say to highlight more than one if you can because if the PDF you highlight was made by using Acrobat, it will change all PDF's made by Acrobat but if you have one made by some other product, it may not change them to open with Acrobat.
    So in other words, at some point you may have to do it to a PDF made by some other product.

  • How do I get to normal screen from blue screen on iMac with snow leopard operating system

    My iMac boots w white screen and then goes to a blue screen with no icons. I have snow leopard as operating system. I have held command key and r but can't get the repair menu. I have unplugged and tried to reboot. I have checked plugs for keyboard and mouse. Tried to reboot w snow leopard disk. Didn't work. Now can't get disk to eject. System is working because can still use wireless. Any ideas?

    Hello, CMD+r only works in Lion/10.7 & up.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • How do I get multiple files to open in the same alpha-numeric sort order in which they are displayed in Finder?

    If I drag a bunch of files to, e.g., Adobe Photoshop they seem to open in strange orders. This makes automating any sort of editing workflow next to impossible. Is there some way to get programs to open files in the same order in which I see them? This is the default behaviour in Windows and it's really helpful when you have hundreds of files (or even just a few) that need to be processed in a certain order. Thanks for any help you might provide.

    You're welcome.
    What's likely happened is that when you transferred the video to the new machine they lost their dates.
    Photos use the Exif metadata to record the date and time of the shot. This is quite different from the date and time of the file, which can change as the file is copied from place to place. Video doesn't have Exif, and so iPhoto uses the file date, and that's changed.
    Simply, there's no absoultely reliable way to date video.
    Try assign dates with the Batch Change command under the Photos menu.

  • How do I get a popup window to stay open with a validation failure?

    Environment:
    APEX 3.1.1.00.09 on AIX 5.3
    Oracle 10.2.0.2 EE on AIX 5.3
    Sample app on apex.oracle.com:
    Workspace: galway
    User: gwicke
    Pass: gwicke
    Steps:
    1- run Page 3
    2- select J & B Marketing from drop down
    3- select only contract from drop down
    4- click on Edit Existing Contract
    5- click on Add New Builder
    6- Enter the same builder from calling page: Builder Name: Alvarez Construction City: Baton Rouge State: LA
    7- click Add Builder
    The original version of this page would add the new builder to the database, pass the information back to the calling page and close the popup window. Cool.
    I have added a validation on the popup page (Page 4) to check for an existing builder with the same name and city.
    What I'd like to have happen is the popup window stay open so the user can see the error message with the instructions for them to click on the CANCEL button and then select the builder from the drop down list. When they click the CANCEL button I need to have the window close.
    What is happening is the window is closing as soon as the Add Builder button is clicked.
    This is because there is a region called 'scripts' that contains javascript to submit the page and close the window and the condition on the region is only that the Builder Name is not null. So, the good news is that I understand why the window is closing but I'm not sure the best way to keep it open when the error condition happens.
    Thanks very much for your help. I'm sure you recall everything about this app you helped me with many months ago. NOT!! :-)
    -gary

    Gary, I think I've got it working the way you want.
    1. I added a conditional branch to page 4 which fires on the not exists builder condition condition.
    2. I disabled the reset page process. With that running, the conditional branch to page 4 woul always fire because the builder name and city were always cleared by the time the branch executed.
    3. I noticed that the new builder did not show up in your select list until I refreshed page 2. I haven't had a chance to look at that. Maybe a branch back to page 2 from page 4 after successfully loading a new builder will take care of that.

  • How do I select multiple files under "Get File Info"and lock or unlock all?

    How do I select multiple files under "Get File Info"and lock or unlock them all? It seems to do it automatically when I have 10 or more selected. But how do I lock or unlock 5 or 6 files in one swoop? Thanks

    Select the desired files then press OPTION and select Show Inspector from the Finder's File menu.

  • IPhoto asked to upgrade library and has now come up empty even though my iPhoto file is over 130GB.  How do I get back my photos?

    iPhoto asked to upgrade library and has now come up empty even though my iPhoto file is over 130GB.  How do I get back my photos?   I am using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 with Mavericks.   My iPhoto is 9.6.   I am very concerned as this file has all my photos for the last 15 years!

    If the iPhoto Library is still 130 GB large, your photos are probably still inside; perhaps the library has a corruption.
    Or the iPhoto Library is on drive, that is incompatible with iPhoto. Where is your iPhoto Library stored?
    To check for a library corruption:  Ctrl-click or right-click the iPhoto library and select "Show Package Contents". This will show the folders inside the library package.
    Are there folders called "Masters" or "Old Masters"?
    If there is a folder "Old Masters", you are having a problem with recent bug, that corrupts iPhoto Libraries when upgrading. In that case, it would be best to restore your iPhoto Library from a backup you made before you upgraded to Yosemite.
    Or, if no backup is available, copy the "old Masters" folder to a folder on your Desktop and create a new iPhoto library and import the Old Masters folder.
    If there is no folder "old Masters" try to rebuild your iPhoto Library with the First Aid tools :
    Make a backup copy of your iPhoto Library, but don't overwrite any older backups.
    To launch the "First Aid Tools" hold down the options-command keys ⌥⌘ while double clicking your iPhoto Library.
    Keep the keys held down firmly until the First Aid panel appears.
    Select  "Rebuild Database".

    Not those whole folders, but their contents, maybe.
    If the user account now on the Mac has read rights to the user account(s) on the backups, yes.  If not, you may have to do some finagling. 
    Try the Browse Other Backup Disks option, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #17.  If you find an account that can open those folders, restore what you want to an alternate location (#16 in the FAQ).
    If not try creating one or more accounts temporarily.

  • How do I retrieve multiple files from my trashcan?

    I removed everything from my "finder" to my trashcan; I found that I had multiple duplicates in images, and I thought that was an easy way to get rid of them. But then my iPhoto started acting weird and when I contacted support, was told that I had to "put back" each file. There are roughly 17,000 images. I am overwhelmed to say the least. Suggestions? I tried highlighting several at a time, but that doesn't work.

    Yes, but it puts the files into a .zip file that is "corrupted, encrypted, empty or in an incompatible format".

  • How to tell if multiple files are selected when they are opened in windows

    Hello, can someone help me, my question is how to tell if multiple file selections were made when they were opened (right-click->open). Through modifying the registry I already have my Java program start up when a file with specific extension is double-clicked.
    The problem is when multiple files are opened at the same time, an instance of java program is created and run for each of the selected files. Ideally I would like it so that only one instance of java program is run, regardless of the number of selections.
    When you try it with Microsoft media player or winamp for example, it seems that only one process is created and run (I don't see many processes spawning when I watch it using task manager). Maybe this is more of Windows issue rather than Java programming issue. Any help is appreciated.

    If anybody wants to know, this can be solved by either 1) using DDE 2) using DropTarget (from Windows) 3) make a light-weight EXE dispatcher (eg. in C), and use file to have IPC between the dispatcher (which gets the filepath for each of the selections) and the java program. There can be other methods of course. Using the second option is the simplest but it requires WinXP and higher. I implemented it using option 3.. the downside of this is there's a warning message pop up when trying to open many (>20?) files at the same time by Windows. However, option 1 'seems' to have the same limitation. Having a java program created each time for each of the selections seems to be too slow, for viable option.
