I did a search, but didn't see this one. Anyone else lost the ability (post-Tiger) to have photoshop (running CS) open photos through drag and drop? In fact, the ONLY way I can open Photoshop files is via the "open" menu item, which is a huge pain. I had formerly set iphoto to open photos in Photoshop, but that has ceased to work.

I'm going to try to reinstall the application. I'm just wondering if others have had the same problem (it didn't seem so) and, if so, how the problem was solved.

This happened to me all the time in Panther. Since the upgrade I think it fixed itself.

Furthermore upgrading to CS2 fixed it as well.

I usually open files by draggin them to the Photoshop CS icon in the dock. It's a real pain to use the open dialog box and the file browser just doesn't cut it for me.

I did another search and found a whole discussion on this matter. Essentially, it has to do with the new OS. The fix is to reinstall the application, which I just did and now drag and drop works again. So definitely try that.

And you're so right about using the "open" dialogue box being a pain. Sometimes the photo is buried in a world of folders.
