I have been creating real estate postcards for listing & sometimes I find myself changing texts styles & font sizes & have multiple layers. They sometimes need to be moved grouped together, I have to move each layer separately then realign, is it possible to group & ungroup the layers for a move?
Hi
You can highlight more than one layer in the layers panel by clicking on the first and shift clicking on the last (or clicking on the first and Ctrl clicking on others if you don't want every layer between the first and last).
The move tool will move them all together
Or you can put the layers in a group - then select the group to move them together. To do this highlight the layers in the layer panel and go to Layer >New > Group from Layers
Note : Turn Autoselect off in the Move Tool options bar

You can also Link the layers by selecting and right clicking. That will make them move together, but will not cause any font or other style changes to be applied to all text layers unless they are all selected as Dave as told you. The same applies to Grouping Type layers. You have to select the actual type layers and not the group, in able to change the text style. If you need sub categories regards text styles in a number of type layers, then colour coding the layers might make life easier.
