Installing your Type 1 or OpenType .otf fonts on Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 or Mac OS X “Classic” requires ATM Light 4.6 or later (4.6.2 for Mac OS X Classic).
If you are running Mac OS X, decide if you want to instal fonts into both the Classic environment and the OS X native environment. If you want your fonts to be accessible to both Classic and Carbon/native applications, instal your fonts into the Classic environment. If the fonts only need to be accessible to Carbon/native applications, instal into the OS X native environment instead.
Note: Do not move an entire folder containing fonts into the System location. The Mac OS can only read font files that are loose in the system font location; it can’t read files inside another folder.
To instal your fonts using a font management utility (e.g., Extensis Suitcase, Font Reserve, FontAgent Pro or MasterJuggler), refer to that utility’s documentation for instructions on adding and activating the fonts.
If you are using ATM Light without a font management utility. use the following instructions to instal the fonts:
![Mac Mac](/uploads/1/2/6/4/126481782/410563010.jpeg)
- Before installing your fonts, quit all active applications.
- Locate the fonts you want to instal on your hard-drive or go to the location you downloaded the fonts to. Each font package or collection will be in its own folder.
- Install your fonts in the System Folder:Fonts folder by moving or copying all the font files from their individual font folders into the System Folder:Fonts folder. For PostScript Type 1 fonts, this includes both the outline font files (red An icons) and the font suitcases. Often a family of outline fonts will be associated with a single font suitcase. OpenType .otf fonts are single-file fonts and do not include font suitcases.
- The fonts are now installed and will appear in the font menus of your applications.

Updating/Upgrading to Photoshop CC FAQ
How do I install the Photoshop CC update for Creative Cloud if I’m already a member?
From Photoshop CS6, choose Help>Updates… to launch the Adobe Application Manager. A new version of the Adobe Application Manager will start to download. After it’s downloaded, it will relaunch and the new CC applications will show up when you sign-in.

- Note: By default, the Creative Cloud app is a menu item on Mac:
- If you want it to show up in the OS X Dock and show up in list of open applications when you Cmd + Tab to switch applications, 1. click on the Creative Cloud icon in the menu, and then 2. choose “Open as Window” from the gear menu:

Can I uninstall Photoshop CS6 after I install Photoshop CC?

Do I have to re-install my 3rd party plug-ins and extension panels after I update?
Do I have to re-install my 3rd party plug-ins and extension panels after I update?
![For For](/uploads/1/2/6/4/126481782/888991842.jpg)
Yes. Because Photoshop CC is a major version update it will install completely separately from Photoshop CS6 and have a separate plug-ins folder. To install your 3rd party plug-ins for Photoshop CC:
DO:
- Only use the plug-in manufacturer’s installer to install their plug-ins
- Always check the plug-in manufacturer’s website for the latest version of your plug-in
- NIK compatibility workaround:
- Alien Skin – The latest versions of Blow Up, Bokeh, Exposure, and Snap Art correctly detect and install into Photoshop CC. As always, installers for our products are freely available on our downloads page. Eye Candy’s installer will not detect CC yet, but we have an update in the works. In the meantime, use our custom installation procedure as a workaround, or download the updated installer when it’s ready in early July.
DO NOT: Adobe dreamweaver cc for mac.
- Do not manually drag plug-ins from a previous version of Photoshop’s plug-ins folder to a newer version of Photoshop’s ‘Plug-Ins’ folder
Adobe 5 for mac. If you encounter unexplained problems or crashes in Photoshop, use the following documents to determine if plug-ins are the problem:
Note: we removed the option in preferences to point to a “Additional Plug-Ins Folder” in Photoshop CC as it caused more problems than it solved.

Why doesn’t video work on 10.6.8?
- Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) is not officially supported. In particular, you cannot work with video files on Mac OS X 10.6. You can create a timeline with stills and add effects like transitions. However, you can export this work only using the File > Export > Render Video > Photoshop Image Sequence option.
Additional Questions:
- How long will it take to download?
- Mac (900MB | DSL 1.5MBS = 80 minutes | Cable 3MBS = 45 minutes | Corporate Network 10MBS = 12 minutes)
- Win (1.3GB | DSL 1.5MBS = 123 minutes | Cable 3MBS = 66 minutes | Corporate Network 10MBS = 17 minutes)
