Unable to install Fonts in CS6

I recently switched to Mac and installed CS6 on my Macbook Pro. Everything in Photoshop works correctly except for my fonts.

When I go to install a font the Font Book appears, a progress bar appears and then nothing. There are no new fonts anywhere even though it appeared to have installed.

Sometimes prior to clicking install when the font preview appears a little dialogue box also appears stating that there may be a minor problem with installation but this is does not happen every time. I have tried several different fonts/websites as well.

I have no other problem with any other features. I have been able to install brushes with no problem at all.

Thanks in advance.
 
I use a Mac also I use a font management program called "suitcase fusion 5" I have never had a problem with it Fontbook with Mac always gave me a headache

Okay. I will try that program when I get home from class. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm beginning to think it's an OS problem however.
 
Not sure try searching with this phrase "font management for mac os x"
 
Okay. I tried another font management software and installed fonts into it. These fonts still are not showing up in PS. I have restarted PS and my computer. I'm stuck.
 
You need to point ps to your font library in preferences.
 
I haven't had to do that in a long time, to give you the path I can't remember but somebody will be able to.I'm not on the computer I'm only on iPad at moment
 
I looked through preference earlier to see if there was anything like that. Would that path not being set cause the fonts to not show up in Font Book as well?
 
Yes. Go to Apple discussion forums there are font issue threads there it's a very helpful site for Apple computers.
 
Would you mind linking some of these forums when you get a chance? I have been looking through forums all day and can't seem to find anything.
