when trying to use generative  fill, pop up states, I'm not 18 and will not allow me to use. How do I change my age?

The new function  Generative Fill is greyed out and you get a warning  that you apparently to young  even though you are over the age 18.  In this case  it is possible that you don't have a valid Date of Birth associated with your Adobe ID account.

To update your Date of Birth, you can do either of the following steps:

  • Sign out and sign back into Creative Cloud Desktop Client and Photoshop (Beta) app
  • Log into  Behance with your Adobe ID and enter your Date of Birth.
  • If you sign in using social sign-in (Apple, Google or Facebook), ensure that your Date of Birth in that account is set to public instead of private.

 

Once your Date of Birth is up to date, relaunch the Photoshop (Beta) app to enable Generative Fill.

Hello, when I try to use the generator, the application tells me that this option is reserved for users over 18 years old. I'm 36 so that shouldn't be a problem. How can I change this state of affairs, I can't find my date of birth mentioned anywhere in my creative cloud account.

Keeps telling me that generative fill is not an option because my account indicates that I am not yet 18. I have never put an age or birthdate in Adobe. How can I fix this? I have been trying to find where to tell Adobe that I am indeed over 18.

YouTube videos keep saying that you can add your birthday in Behance.

Try this:

Why is the Generative Fill button greyed out if I'm over 18?

If you find that Generative Fill is greyed out for you and you're over the age of 18, it is possible that you may not have a valid Date of Birth associated with your Adobe ID account. To update your Date of Birth, you can do either of the following:

 

  • Sign out and sign back in to both the Creative Cloud Desktop app and the Photoshop (beta) app

  • Log into Behance with your Adobe ID and enter your Date of Birth.

  • If you sign in using social sign-in (Apple, Google, and Facebook), ensure that your date of birth in that account is set to public instead of private.

 

Once your Date of Birth is up to date, relaunch the Photoshop (beta) app to enable Generative Fill.

I just downloaded Photoshop Beta, but can`t use it (ai feature), because Photoshop is telling me, that I am underage (which I am not).

I checked all connected E-Mail programs etc. - all contain my correct date of birth.

Hello la commu !

Lorsque j'ai voulu tester le remplissage génératif sur Photoshop Béta il me dit que sur mon compte je n'ai pas 18 ans et qu'il ne fonctionne pas pour les gens qui n'ont pas encore 18 ans. Où peut on régler ce problème please ?

Pour info j'ai 46 ans 😊

Hello,

 

Anyone knows why when I make a selection the "generative fill" field doesn't appear in the contextual Task Bar (as show on the screen capture below). What have I done wrong, what should I do to get the button ?

Used crop tool to extend canvas and comitted thge crop.

Used rect. marquee tool to select half of the extended canvas (incl a narrow part of original image)

The 'generate' dialogue box is greyed out with no other option to generate a canvas fill.

Did it work for you before and stop working or did it never work?
