I'm on Mac OS Sierra running the latest 2017 Photoshop. I'm desperate to get the image resize dialogue box to default to pixels but it keeps showing centimetres as a default. I have changed this in every previous version of Photoshop I've used, and it's always worked the same way, by changing the units in my preferences. For this version I've done it multiple times, closing photoshop and reopening, and have restarted my mac, but I still see centimetres for the width and height inputs.
Is this a bug or am I missing something? This is seriously frustrating my workflow!
Change units in the Image Size Box, not the Preferences. It should stay there. CC 2017.1/OSX 10.12.4

Interesting. I've done as suggested. It has worked, but I thought I'd tried it lots of times before!
Presumably I was pressing cancel instead of OK. Thanks!

Or right click a ruler

The ruler already was in pixels. It had changed to pixels when I set my preferences to pixels (and stayed that way). The W & H in the image size dialogue appears to be the only thing that doesn't change (and save) along with everything else.

You are correct. On setting the Image Size units, pressing OK is critical even when you do not change anything else.
If I change my units to pixels and Cancel, I lose that setting. OK means the change to pixels is kept.
