How to always show rulers in Photoshop CS5 and other problems

Does anyone know how to make Photoshop CS5 always show rulers in mac? I have not have this issue with any other PS. I need the rulers to drag guides contantly, but photoshop cs5 would not show the rulers automatically. Everytime I have to go to View --> Show rulers or the shortcut command + R. Is there a way to instruct Photoshop to always show rules with any file I open or create?
I have many other issues with Photoshop CS5 that CS2, 3, and 4 had out of the box... It is very frustrating that I spent all this money and instead of working, I have been on the phone with Adobe for hours... I am very disappointed so far.
I have had CS5 Master's Collection for 2 months now on Mac 10.6.7. I have reinstalled Photoshop 3 times as some shortcuts were not working like shift plus scroll to inscrease to 100%, 200%, etc.
The other thing that still does not work and Adobe has not offered a solution is that my Photoshop would not append extensions. Regardless of the Preferences settings, all my files get saved as JPG instead of jpg... I wonder if any of you out there have this issue as well?
Thank you.

I believe my computer and its account are healthy. I just bought the mac pro with solid state and the only programs I have installed are the Master Collection CS5.
I have good news though - After two months of waiting, I was finally able to speak with Adobe specialists yesterday and they changed the shortcut for Save As that Photoshop ships with from Command + Alt + S to Command + Shift + S - and miraculously now Photoshop appends extensions!!!
However, my question about always displaying rulers remains. We got disconnected and I didn't have a chance to ask them (I was on hold for an hour and a half!)

  • Photoshop CS5 and 3D problem

    Hi!
    I installed photoshop CS5 Extended and unfortunatelly the 3D menu options are all grayed out.
    My graphic card: ATI Radeon HD 3600
    I enabled the OpenGL drawing. In the Preferences menu the 3D panel was active after i turned on the OpenGL drawing, but everytime I want to use some 3D feature the program tells that  - for example: "The command create 3D from 2D is not currently available." OR "The command create repoussé from layer mask is not currently available."
    I don't know what could be the problem or maybe I need better graphic card?

    Hi, for some strange reason all of the 3D menus in my CS5 extended are not displayed on my workstation but up and active on my laptop and I just cannot find the reason why. I have a Radeon 4870HD 1GB DDR5 and have downloaded the latest drivers including open gl3.2 but it makes no difference, have you any idea would could be wrong.
    I have looked in Menus and all of the data is there but it just wont display on the menu bar, its driving me nuts!
    Many thanks David

  • Why do some images open in Photoshop CS5  and others not when I'm using Edit With command in InDesign

    Sometimes when I try to edit images from within InDesign Photoshop says it cannot open because of a problem. I noticed that it's not with every image. But I cannot see why. Some are my own images from iPhoto, some are from the morgue files. Anyone?

  • How to share on CC with Team members and other problems

    I had a CC for Team account, then got a deal to add seats at a discount, I added 2 more. I had to change my password and give a new e-mail address to get this deal. When I log in using my New ID all my files are gone. I log in with my Old ID my files and web sites are there no team members, added my OldID to the new Teams account and made me an administrator. Now when I log in with my OldID I can see my file and team members one of them is me with a new ID and the other is a client. I want to get rid of one of me I prefer the new one but I can't I can only delete the OldID and I lose my web site and all my files. Now the only reason I did this was to let my client see the files instead of selecting one page at a time and sending a link I thought they could go to their folder and look at the pages as they are being designed and edited. But there is no method to share with other team members. I re-watch the Max video but nothing they were showing is available in my team CC account. Can someone Help me out Please?

    I redownloaded my Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw will not accept my RAW files nor will the Adobe Bridge display the picture view of these files. A message displays saying it doesn't support this camera.  I have a Nikon 5100 DSLR Camera.  It always displayed them in the past.  How can I get it to display these photos in Bridge and open them in RAW?

  • I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP.  I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

    I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years.  When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but  the problem remains. Looking for help.  Dan

    Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge.  This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge.  At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu.  The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal.  This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts.  I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens.       And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5.  Thank you for your help.  Dan

  • I have Photoshop CS5 and my image processor and batch tool are gone. How do I get them back?

    I have Photoshop CS5 and my image processor and batch tool are gone. How do I get them back?
    I went into edit preference and all the start up scrips are selected so what else is there?

    When you installed CS5, you have a chance to register it. If you do, your serial number is on file under your Adobe (My Products). If you did not, you have no serial number on file and even worse, no proof you own it.
    You do not have your serial number copied down anywhere? Hard to believe you tossed the dvd box and all the documents away.
    So Help > Register might give you a chance to do this without you knowing the number.
    If not, you may want to consider the Photography Plan. Creative Cloud Photography plan | Adobe Creative Cloud

  • How come the Adobe Wiki says Photoshop CS5 inclues Acrobat Pro 9.3 but mine doesn't include it?

    I was reviewing what is supposed to be included with Photoshop CS5 and it says it includes Acrobat Pro 9.3 but mine only contains Photoshop.  Mine is an upgrade from CS3 but should that matter?  The CS5 matrix shows CS5 contains 9.3 but mine doesnt?

    CS really has only one meaning. Creative Suite. Unfortunately, it's the name of not two but many, many things, but all for the same reason.
    Creative Suite is a suite, which is easy enough. CS5 is the fifth major version of Creative Suite.
    Where it can get confusing is that the apps in the suite are also known by the suite name
    Photoshop CS5, Illustrator CS5, InDesign CS5 for instance.  And you can buy them separately.
    So if you buy Creative Suite 5 you get all three and more (depending on the suite you buy). But if you buy, say, Illustrator CS5 that's just Illustrator.
    Where it gets really confusing is that the Acrobat team never joined the club. So while some Creative Suites include some Acrobats the versions never match up. You have to use a reliable source. You may not be aware that ANYONE CAN EDIT Wikipedia, so while it is interesting, and often accurate, you can never use it to settle an argument...

    I must have my computer reimaged.  I have Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 5.7.  How do I inform Adobe that I will be reloading these programs to the same computer?

    And to directly answer your question, you don’t inform Adobe, you merely deactivate PS, reimage, then reinstall and reactivate PS with the serial number(s), and relicense LR with the serial number(s).
    If this computer isn’t yours and you don’t have the serial numbers, yourself, then that could be a problem, although there may be software that can find the serial numbers.  On a PC platform, download and run the Belarc Security Advisor and see if it finds the serial numbers you need.  It’ll only find the current product serial numbers, not the prior versions that an upgrade might be based on, so then you’ll be stuck.

    Hi David,
    You need to download CS6 Photoshop and enter the serial number for CS6 Photoshop and then you would be prompted to enter the serial number for qualifying product.
    Enter the CS5 serial number in order to install and activate CS5 Photoshop on your machine.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.
