How do I get Photoshop to retain desktop preferences with a Retina display?

I use PS Creative Cloud mostly in Windows and on a Macbook with a Retina 13.3 screen.
When I first open an image from bridge/raw converter in my Macbook Retina the image is displayed in the lower right part of the screen. To get to a usable desktop I have to click view/screen mode/full screen mode with menu bar. Subsequent images opened from bridge/raw converter open in a correctly configured desktop. I have tried to save my preferred desktop settings under several different names but PS does not retain the settings even though that desktop setting shows a check mark next to it and is listed in the top right box as the chosen workspace.
I presume I am missing something simple as this must be a common issue.

What version of photoshop are you using?
On newer versions of photoshop cs4-cc, it's usually Window>Application Frame

    If you look in the audio output port, is there a red light showing.  If so, the internal switch is stuck..  Insert the headphones a few times, jiggle a toothpick inside or shot some compressed air to trip the switch.  If no success, have the Apple store genius bar technician do it.

  • How do I get rid of my desktop background with my desktop icon in System Preferences locked?

    It's a school laptop so the section in System Preferences is locked and I don't know how to get rid of it now. I have a MacBook Air.

    Do you get this display?
    If so, you have to select an Internet connection.  Do not expect quick response time in this mode.  All activities in this mode will be lengthy.

  • How do I get back to my desktop?

    How do I get back to my desktop with all my icons there while I have multiple windows open without closing any windows.  I would think I could press a keyboard button to get there.  I know if I have multiple windows open and I press F4 it takes me directly to my window of widgets that I use often and when I press F4 again it takes me back to all the windows that I have open.

    Got the solution.  I went on Mac Forums and someone there told me what to do.
    He said press the FN key and then press F11.  That's fantastic.  Just what I wanted.
    It takes you right to your desktop and when you press it again it will take you back to the window you were in.
    Try it.

    You can't change the way Pages import .doc files.
    It was never written that it reproduce exactly the original one.
    From my point of view, as I refuse to give a cent to M...soft, the best way to deal with documents issued by their Office suite is to use the free libreOffice.

    How can I get photoshop and Illustrator CS5? I cannot see it anywhere. My computer(PC) can only use CS5

    If you do not own a license for CS5 there is not much you can do to get it thru Adobe.  They only sell current versions of their software (CS6 or Creative Cloud).  You would need to find a third party vendor and take your chances with them.
    If you do own a CS5 license you can download the software thru the following page and use your serial number to activate:

  • I am running OS X 10.5.8 and don't see an iCloud icon in my system preferences.  I do see a Mobileme icon but I would like to have all my mac devices on iCloud.  How can I get iCloud on my desktop?

    I am running OS X 10.5.8 and don't see an iCloud icon in my system preferences.  I do see a Mobileme icon but I would like to have all my mac devices on iCloud.  How can I get iCloud on my desktop?

    iCloud requires 10.7.2 or later. See the following about how to upgrade:
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

  • How do I get Photoshop to open .RWL raw files, taken on a Leica DLUX5 for Mac 10.91.

    How do I get Photoshop CS4 to open .RWL raw files, taken on a Leica DLUX5. I have a Mac 10.91.operating system and have tried downloading and installing Camera_Raw_5_2.dmg, which has failed to do the trick.

    Thanks Pierre, I have converted the .rwl files to .dng, but CS4 says it does not recognise them. What now? Or is Mylenium correct?

    Hello, you should download the latest DNG converter: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html
    I suggest to contact Leica and ask them why they do not use the DNg format on that camera, as they do on their more costly models.

  • How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    The D3200 requires at least ACR 7.1, which isn't compatible with any version of PSE prior to PSE 11, so no, you can't do this directly in PSE 9.
    You could upgrade PSE, use the Nikon software to convert the files and then open the resulting images into PSE for further editing, or download the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of PSE can understand.
