Adobe CS 6 dialogue boxes opening off screen

Hi all. Since upgrading to Yosemite 10.2 all my dialogue boxes in CS6 (InDesign, Photoshop, etc) now open with the top half disappearing off the top of the screen (see image). I'm working on a dual monitor setup, and the problem is with my larger, second monitor. REALLY annoying, as most of the functionality is now lost since I can't drag the box back into view. Is anyone else getting this, and / or got any solutions? Thanks in advance.

I've the same issue.

Once updated adobe pallets don't work in second monitor.


I've tried:

. align monitor bottom top, left, middle, everything works only one time and little changes make the error came back.

. uncheck "screen have separated spaces" in Mission Control


Exists another entire discussion on Adobe's forum:

The solution that works for me is make the same resolution on both monitors.


It ***** but works:

Waiting for Apple's solution...

I use a Mac Pro (early 2009 - Nehalem) with two monitors (one of them an Apple Cinema display, the other is a smaller Sony display) and I have had the same problem with my CS 6 applications -- very frustrating until I saw your workaround. However, clearly OSX 10.10.2 is defective in how it deals with multiple monitors having different native resolutions. There was no such problem with previous versions. I hope Apple fixes this bug very soon. Desktop publishing people and photographers must have been tearing their hair out since the upgrade. Thanks for your solution. It seems to be working for me. I also had problems when moving a panel from one screen to another -- it will jump up or down and can't be moved into a position that shows the whole panel.

WELL well well! After over a month of tech support calls with Adobe and Apple Genius's as to why and when they will fix the problem, the most recent update to Yosemite 10.10.3 appears to have FIXED the problems. Although I feel I should do further testing to confirm.


There were at least 3 conversations I had with Apple about this issue and every time they said Adobe is the one that needs to correct the problem on their end
