I moved from a 2007 iMac running Mountain Lion to a mid-2012 MBP with ML a couple of months ago.
Naturally I brought over the many extra fonts I have downloaded over the years working as a web designer.
Many of these were disabled when I tried to find them in Photoshop (CS6, Adobe Creative Cloud). So I opened Font Book, enabled them - at first by selecting *everything* then Enable Fonts, and later when that seemed not to be working, on a per family basis.
Enabled fonts will stay enable and available to use in Photoshop a few times, then the next time I launch PS, bam, all gone.
Up to around fonts beginning with C I some of my fonts show; beyond that only system fonts. It's getting ridiculous, having to re-enable fonts I reliably had access to on the old machine every time I need to work on a design.
A while back I cleared the font cache, and allowed Font Book to fix duplicates. I also allowed it to scan for corrupted fonts (can't remember how this worked now), with no bad fonts out of 500+ found.
Is there a tried and tested way to fix this issue, and make my fonts stick? It's driving me nuts. Should I invest in another font manager app? Font Book is very slow and I don't feel I can trust it to do much at this point. Thanks for any advice.
