Photoshop CS6 won't display my current font

I'm having issues with fonts in CS6. Some issues I see are
Highlighting text won't tell me what font family I'm actually using
Also to change fonts I have to first highlight the text and then change it to a random font and then choose the font I want.
Am I the only one having font issues?

Usually, if you don't see a font family listed when you have text selected, it's because you have multiple different fonts in use in the selected text. Upon selecting the Type tool, you should already see a font selected, which will be the last font used. If you just place the prompt in the line of text is should display the font of the character immediately to the left, is the font family still blank?
On the second item, with the above info, if you select text that uses mulitple fonts, causing the font family to go blank, it will not be filled with a font again until you select text that uses a single font family. Use the suggestion above about just placing the type prompt next to a single character to display just that one font.
Also, for your workaround, why choose a random font? Why can't you just go straight to the font you want?

  • Photoshop cs6 won't allow me to highlight my existing text layers. Does anyone have experience with this problem?

    Photoshop cs6 won't allow me to highlight my existing text layers. I select the text tool and the text layer I want to edit, hover over text and each time I attempto to edit a new layer is created. Does anyone have experience with this problem?

    Be sure you go to Adobe's Web Site and make sure there are no Updates for CS6
    http://www.adobe.com
    Remember if you have trouble with a software issue it is the software and not caused by the Mac you are using
    Many users simply don't remember when you upgrade software you normally have to go to 3rd party web sites and update software as well.

  • Photoshop CS6 start screen displays circles

    My Photoshop CS6 start screen displays circles around its rectangular shape. Can anyone tell me why?
    I am using version 13.0.4 x64 on Macintosh OSX 10.9.2
    Here is what the screen looks like:

    I was a bit confused myself, because the splash screen with the circles was not something I recognized, but a quick look round revealed the screen above is for CS6 Standard.  The alternative screen turns out to be for the Extended version, and since it is only the serial number that differentiates between Standard and Extended, both splash screens must be on your drive somewhere.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/different-splash-screen-photoshop-cs6.html
    This list only goes up to CS2, but is fascinating all the same.  Hmmm...  I suddenly feel like my geek factor shot up after typing the last sentence.

  • Photoshop CS6 won't launch and when it does it's really slow...help?

    Hi,
    So my copy of Photoshop CS6 sometimes won't launch and when it does manage to launch fully, it's really slow. I mean ridiculously slow. The only times when I can get it to run even remotely quick is if I shut down my computer, and then restart it and then start up Photoshop CS6 as the first program. Even then it slows down after a while. (And I only have a firefox browser open usually, never more than a couple of tabs at once, so it's not a bandwidth issue)
    Here are my comp specs:
    Samsung
    Processor:
    AMD A6-3420M APU with
    Radeon (Tm) HD graphics 1.50 ghz
    Installed Memory (RAM) - 4.00 (3.48 usable)
    64 Bit operating System running on Windows 7 home premium, service pack 1
    I also did just recently install the new update Adobe had for Photoshop, so that's up to date.
    It's getting really frustrating! I have another program I'm using in the meantime (Paint tool Sai), but I'd really like to use Photoshop CS6.....
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Make sure you updated the drivers from AMD's website, not Microsoft.
    Make sure you are running the 64 bit version of Photoshop, not 32 bit.
    Disable all third party plugins, and try disabling system utilities (we've seen font managers, antivirus, disk backup software, etc. cause slowdowns due to bugs in those utilities).

  • My Photoshop CS6 won't work...

    My CS6 won't open any images. I'm working on a Mac, Mountain Lion 10.8.4. When I double click the photo, Photoshop will open but then not do anything, and my mouse turns into the spinning beach ball of death (as I call it). I tried downloading the update but it would not work for me. I really don't want to unistall/reinstall. Is there anything else I can try?

    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

  • Photoshop CS6 won't do anything, but works on a different user profile

    Hello I am receiving the error ‘photoshop could not complete your request because of a programme error’ message any time I try and do anything in photoshop, I can’t open, edit, change any settings or access any menu in photoshop without this error, rendering it, currently, a useless waste of money.
    I am running CS6 on a mac running Mountain lion 10.8.3 everything is up to date, both operating system and photoshop. I have tried deleting prefs, plist files, adobe cleaner and re-installation, all several times and I still have the same problem. I also cannot find any log files, or access anything through help>system information.
    It does work under a new user profile, but I'm not too happy about that as a work around

    Can anybody help?

    I am experiencing the same problem with my iPod classic 120GB. When I Connect it to my computer for the first time since I started it, it works fine. The iPod is recognized by the computer and iTunes. When I eject the iPod thru the iTunes interface and reconnect it again (without rebooting my computer) the computer freezes. When I start iTunes again, nothing happens until I remove the iPod from the computer (it is stil displaying 'connected'). Removing the iPod unfreezes the computer. I think it is a software problem but I can't find a solution on the internet for such a problem.
    Can someone help?

  • Photoshop CS6 won't open new or existing files

    I've had Photoshop CS6 for several months now and never had any problems. Until today; I can no longer open files or create a new one using either method: (File -> New) or (File -> Open). I restarted my computer this afternoon and am wondering if an update took place on my system. From what I've read in these forums, that's usually the culprit.
    One thing that concerns me is the System Info. It seems to be saying that I have Windows NT, which I do not. Here is the complete System Info output:

    If anyone has ANY suggestions, please let me know. I am a web designer and depend heavily on Photoshop working properly. Thanks!

    After posting the question, I realized that NT is just the family of OS (Windows 8.1). I seemed to have solved my problem... for now. I went to startup programs and disabled a couple of programs from opening on start. They were related to the Spoon.net application. After restarting, things seem to working fine again.
    I hope this at least helps someone else.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 won't run, problem with Application Manager

    I've now got three Adobo Photoshop CS products on my MacBook Pro, the latest is CS6 which won't run.
    I own Photoshop CS3, I just happen to install the CS5.x suite today, which runs during the trial period (30 day, today is day #1).
    I then see that PSCS6 is out so I install that and get an error dialog.
    Adobe Photoshop CS6
    Adobe Application Manager, required to verify your license, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager.
    I go to that URL, run the new application manager and get that same dialog box when I try to run CS6.
    When I did the CS6b install it asked for my Adobe ID/password and I entered that and the install completed. So I'm not sure what's going on.

    Hi, Using OSX Lion...was getting the same AAM errors.
    I hope my "fix" is of help:
    During one installation attempt I noticed that it was using an Adobe Application Manager here:
    ~User/Applications/Adobe/OOBE/PDApp/core/Adobe Application Manager
    It is version 6.0.236.0 and the installer deletes it after the install. The download page only has version 2.
    So during my last install attempt, I grabbed a copy of that OOBE directory -- to catch the support files -- before deletion.
    Did not work in user Applications folder, but when I copied it in the location of AAM 2, it works.
    The full location is as follows (I renamed the original OOBE folder as a back-up):
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/PDApp/core/Adobe Application Manager
    Authorization works, and software update seems to...however, uninstall can't use this method.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 won't open

         Around a month ago I bought the creative cloud plan. I'm paying $10 a month for Photoshop CS6. A few days ago I tried opening photoshop but it won't open. I found out that I had been using the trial the past month, even though I already bought the whole thing. A selection comes up shortly after I try to open photoshop saying "License this Software". I don't know what that means but when I click on it it asks for a serial number. When I bought the creative cloud plan it emailed me a few times confirming my order and thanking me for using creative cloud and everything, but it doesn't say a thing in any of them about a serial number. So I tried doing one last thing.
         I went to the Adobe website and went to the apps section and selected Photoshop. I hit download and the Creative Cloud App in the top right of my desktop (I think it's called the menu bar, but I'm not exactly sure) opens up but won't load. I select the apps section but there's a blue loading circle that tells me it's loading but it won't stop. I waited 30 minutes the other day and it still didn't load. And yes my internet connection has been fine lately. I tried restarting my computer, closing other apps and everything else but it still won't load. Thanks for the help guys and please ask if you have any questions about my problem.
