P: Speed-limit error message (merged thread)

This error is preventing me from generating images. No images are in generation when the error occurs. I generated one image and this persistently pops up. Adobe is in free mode currently until April 16, 2026 and I have 8000 credits in my account. I need this fixed immediately.

    Hey ​@GlennWilliams 

    Yes, I have been getting this message recently as well. Looks like there is a change in the algorithm.

    I just wait a moment (1 to 2 mins) and press generate. 
    Cheers

    I keep getting a security flag for too many generations too quickly
    Has anyone else been getting flagged for "too many generations too quickly" lately? This started about two weeks ago for me and it's happening daily now. My workflow hasn't changed at all. As someone who generates a high volume of images regularly, this is seriously disrupting my process. Would love to know if others are seeing the same thing or if this is an account-level issue.

    It’s been happening for a bit. I had waited and it keeps giving me that error. Literally becoming unusable with every passing day. I have multiple subscriptions for a service that no longer works..

    I agree we have been waiting a while for a fix for this problem. I just got charged my monthly subscription fee and have not been able to use Ultra4 since this problem started. No productivity at all and if the problem cannot be fixed in a month, I will stop payment...

      On Adobe Firefly when trying to use the Gemini 2.5 w/ Nano Banano model, I keep getting a prompt result of 'woah there, speed racer!' despite the fact that I am not running or waiting for any other prompts. It is only happening with this model. I have tried a different browser and clearing my cache/cookies.

    Have you heard from the product team. You organization has me paying a monthly subscription for a  product that is not working?

    Hi RLDigitalCreations,
    Thanks for reaching out about this.

    I ran a quick test on my side, generating three times using Firefly 4 Ultra and Firefly Image 5, and didn’t encounter the warning message. Have you tried using another model? If the message still appears with a different model, please wait a little while and try again later.

     

    Let us know if the issue persists after waiting and retrying.

    I have also been experiencing this the entire day with those same models (4 Ultra and 5). Other models appear to be working for me. It requires at least 2 minutes before it allows me to generate another image - A productivity killer if you’re on a deadline.

    I agree, productivity is beyond slow. So slow I will wait til there is a fix...
