For example, you may have a photo of several new product boxes and you want to crop out one product box and paste it into a photo that shows people using the product. All new Macs come with Apple.

I just discovered that Photoshop CC refusing to hide on my mac (Sierra) was because of the crop tool being active. The crop tool automatically starts when I fire up PS, so perhaps that was the problem in my case.

Hopefully it solves other ppl's problems as well. Just reproduced it: - Open Photoshop: fine, can hide - Open document in Photoshop, crop tool is active: fine, can hide - drag on one of the corner handles to start cropping: CAN'T hide - drag it back to the corner: CAN'T hide - hit enter to 'apply' the crop: fine, can hide again. Adobe will remember the last tool you used. Hp envy 4500 software install for mac.

It's another of those sticky settings written on quit. If you don't want it selected, just remember to press V for Move or M for Marquee before quitting. And with an active crop, I can also hide PS holding alt to click on the icon in the dock, or right-clicking and using the menu, using the PS menu, and using my choice of kbsc for Hide Photoshop. I don't know why your crop in 2018 is refusing to let you hide PS, but perhaps it's time to try deleting your Preferences and starting fresh? If you save a backup of your Settings file in your user Library, you can put everything back if that doesn't help. I often just prefer to go through and reset everything—sometimes there's a preference I come across that I've forgotten about or didn't even know was there, so it helps me stay current with the app. But I do know what a pain it is to have to set up all your presets and other interface preferences again, and it can be for nothing—deleting Preferences doesn't cure all ills.
