Open images as float all in windows and not as uneditable background

I hope the Elements team read these posts occasionally, and realize how many people want to default images to open "float all in windows" instead of having to hunt through the drop down menus to do it every single time PSE is opened. I also want to be able to open everything as an editable layer, rather than having to hunt through the menus every single time for the "new adjustment layer" command. Both of course were done by default by the supposedly primitive and inferior PhotoDeluxe I used on Windows...

As for the adjustment layers, you can do that right from the layers panel:
Just click the black and white circle No need for the menus at the top of the screen. If you go to Preferences>General and turn on Allow Floating Documents, you can have floating windows by default in all recent versions of PSE except for 9.0.3:

I want to open links & sites in a new window and not a new tab, how can I do that?

when I click on a link I want to open a new window, instead to open a new tab.

Uncheck: Firefox > Preferences > Tabs: [ ] "Open new windows in a new tab instead"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Making 'float all in windows' the default in CS5

I have recently upgraded to Photoshop CS5 extended v12.0 x64. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.4 on a MacBook Pro. When multiple files are opened, the default is that they are consolidated as tabs. I have found the 'float all in windows' command under Window>Arrange. How can I make this the default so that I do not need to do this operation every time?
thanks

Thanks for the reply, Chris and John.
Another quick one for you: Sometimes PS won't open a RAW file when I double-click on the icon, but I can open the same file by going to File > Open.
Any ideas?

Opening image files in their own windows in PS4

Before PS4, I could open image files in their own windows. In PS4, when I want to open more than one file, these open with tabs and any new file I open is added to the tab queue. It is annoying to right click on each tab so each file is in its own window. Is there a universal preference to change this annoying behavior?
Using a Windows environment with Photoshop CS4 Extended.

see the tabs setting in the preferences. you can turn that off.

Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

How to get my images always order by file name, and not by time of captur, in all the folders in the library?

How to get my images always order by arquive name, and not by time of captur, in all the folders in the library?
Sorry for the poor english, but im portugues.
In the library we can change the order of classification of image by, time of capture, name of file etc... I'm wondering if its possible define to be always by the name of file.
It ´s possible?
And i have other question, in print label we have an option to auto rotate to feet in page to have the image using the maximum area in the page (auto rotate, zoom etc), its possible to change the orientation of the rotation to be always in the other direction?

The Muvos are USB Mass Storage devices and do not have the ability to display track information based upon ID3 tags.
The Zens all read and display track info based upon ID3 tag information that is either gathered from an online source or entered by the end-user.
If you want the track information displayed instead of the ID3 tag information, you could edit the ID3 tags and rename the title to whatever you have as the file name. Not sure why your file names would differ so much from the ID3 tag info though, almost all of my content has the same name for the filename as it does on the ID3 tag title.

How do I get a longer list of items in the history window - and not have to click "Show All History"? The default list is too short.

When I change the time zone of the clock, the "Date created" time information for my documents and image files in the Finder window (and in Get Info) is changed. Can I make the time info in "Date created" remain fixed regardless of the clock's timezone?

From Mac to PC. 3rd gen.iPod shows in Windows and not in iTunes

3rd Generation iPod version 2.3
Installing on a PC using Windows XP Home Edition
My son gave me his old iPod having just bought the newest version. I already own an iPod shuffle and have not had any difficulties. I would mention however that my son used the iPod with his Mac computer.
My difficulty is that the iPod shows up in Windows and not in iTunes. I just cannot get iTunes to recognize this iPod.
On the settings on the iPod it states my name, the format is Windows and funnily enough all my playlists have been downloaded but not the tunes.
I have uninstalled the iPod shuffle and uninstalled, reinstalled the software registering the new iPod to me and have gone through all the points mentioned on the Apple site on http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716 many times.
Because I kept getting the balloon “One of the USB Devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it” (Even though it appeared in Disk Drives in Device Manager) I have bought and installed a USB 2.0 port PCI card. I really thought this would be the answer. However the usual balloons came up the first time (after having uninstalled and reinstalled the software yet again). The balloons stated that the hardware device has been installed and ready to use. However nothing appears in iTunes. Upon reconnecting the iPod again in whatever port I am still getting the balloon message “USB device attached to this computer has malfunctioned……………………..” All the USB port function properly with other devices (including the iPod shuffle when the software is uninstalled and installed again giving the shuffles details) and on the Device Manager windows they show as working properly. Still on the iPod “do not disconnect” and nothing on the window in iTunes and everytime I plug it in the same old notice comes up.
Any ideas of a solution would be greatly appreciated.

No reply from this discussion group but if this helps anyone else it would be good.
I reformated iPod by right clicking on disk in My Computer and clicking format.
After many different notices when trying to open I went to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304996 and followed the instructions.
The problem was solved and my iPod now appears in iTunes and I am able to sync.

Where is CS5 preference to use new window and not tabs?

Hi,
I prefer a new window rather than lose screen space to tabs.
Is there a preference somewhere to open new document in new window and not as a tab?
Thanks,
Garrett

You can use the "Float in window" command (available in Window | Arrange menu) - but this will work once you have created a new doc.

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla

Thanks for the suggestion.
A few weeks ago I downloaded some free software from the "tucows.com" website, it appears to have permanently hijacked my web browsers (both firefox and IE) so all searches go to their "searchqu" site, and new tabs open at that site. I was unable to repair this with the addins you suggested or by editing my user preferences files, and ended up having to reinstall firefox. Hopefully I won't run into the tucows rootkit ;)
But thanks anyway.

You said " I sign in but her music list shows up mixed with about 1/3 of mine."
Sign in where?
What music list?
It also sounds like that computer is not authorized for the account. You can only have 5 computers authorized for one account. If yo go to iTunes>Store>View account and then sign in it will tell you how many (but no what computers) are authorized. There is no way to find out what computers are authorized.
You can deauthorize all computer once a year.
See:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

You need to use the backup of your PC to transfer all the music files to iTunes on the Mac.
If you have no backup then you have a difficult task ahead of you as iTunes will only allow you to sync purchased music from the iPhone back into iTunes. Any music you loaded into iTunes yourself will not transfer from the iPhone to iTunes, this is to prevent stealing of music. To sync iTunes purchased music from the iPhone to iTunes, connect the iPhone and open iTunes, but when asked do NOT sync the device. then right click on the iPhone in the iTunes source list and select the 'Transfer Purchases' option, you will also find this commend in the File menu.
If you are in the US, you can use the new iTunes in the Could feature to redownload your iTunes purchased music / apps / books for free.
If you want to transfer all the content from your iPhone to you Mac then you will need to use Google to find a 3rd party piece of software that will do this for you.
