What version did you upgrade from? If you upgraded from a much older version of Photoshop, is it possible that you¹re not familiar with ³tabs²? Instead of opening each image in a separate window, several images might be stacked on top of one another, accessible by clicking the tabs at the top of the window. It appears as just a single window, but all of the images are in fact open. I remember this drove me crazy the first time I encountered it in CS3 or 4. I still prefer the old method of having each image open in its own window (especially because I frequently need to be able to see multiple images at once). I discovered that you can grab the tabs and ³tear off² each image into its own window. This is just a guess, of course. Maybe CS5 really isn¹t letting you open multiple images. That would be very odd.

When I open another file the first one automatically closes. I'v tried every approach I can think of, and could find nothing promising in Preferences. Help!
