Bug Reports

This is after clicking the mouse once in the center 

Hi,I’ve been having an issue in Photoshop where the adjustments tab periodically becomes greyed out, making it impossible to add an adjustment layer by clicking on the the appropriate type. Restarting Photoshop resolves the issue temporarily. I’ve tried a number of troubleshooting steps including trashing and rebuilding preferences and reinstalling the application but nothing has resolved it. Photoshop 27.5.0. MacBook Pro M3, MacOS 26.4.1. Any help to resolve this would be much appreciated. 

Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.4.0 2Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit When I go to Image → Canvas Size, the default is always pixels. I want it to be inches. Note: I have checked in preferences, units and measures, and the default is inches. Also when I go to image → Image size, the default is in fact inches, which is what I expect.  Is the default unit for image → canvas size now different? Is there a different place to set it?  thanks

The AI ​​repair brush is not working in version 27.4. An error message appears when I set it to AI ON. When AI is set to AI AUTO, a pattern appears where the brush is supposed to repair.Please fix this bug. 

Photoshop version: 26.11.0 ("up to date" according to Creative Cloud app) System: macOS Tahoe 26.0.1   Steps to reproduce: Open a new document, make some edit, close the document (CMD+W). In the dialog that opens and asks if you want to save, don't save or cancel, try to use the tab key to switch to the discard option. It doesn't work. The only way to discard unsaved changes is to use the mouse.   Expected behavior: Tab key should switch between every available option in dialogs, so you can press spacebar to choose that option.   The same behavior is seen in other dialogs, such as when trying to do something that would cancel an open action (e.g. editing a text box). Tab key just removes focus from any option and it never comes back. Only escape key (cancel) and return (choose the default option) work.

When trying to add a new color swatch the first in line is replaced instead. Not possible to create a new one. Any suggestions?

Hello, I’m using the latest version of Photoshop on Mac and I’ve noticed a strange issue related to text scaling.When I work with text that has multiple colors, everything looks perfectly consistent at 100% zoom — same size, no problem. However, when I zoom out, one part of the text (for example, the red portion) appears smaller than the rest. I’m seeing the same issue when I export or save the file at a different size.the same happens if I use to different layers, one for text in white, and one for the text in red.It feels like a display or rendering inconsistency, but I don’t remember running into this before.Has anyone experienced this or found a fix?Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!  

After the latest Photoshop update, Actions are not properly recording Canvas Size or Crop dimensions.Steps to reproduce:1. Open any image (transparent background PNG tested)2. Start recording a new Action3. Go to Image > Canvas Size4. Enter specific values (e.g. 2024 x 2024 px)5. Confirm and stop recordingExpected result:Canvas Size width and height values should be recorded and visible inside the Action.Actual result:Canvas Size is recorded, but Width and Height values are missing or not saved.Additional notes:- Issue occurs consistently- Tested multiple times- Worked correctly in previous Photoshop versions- Affects automation workflows significantly 

Even though it is checked and has to be seen on the PSD screen and even though I uninstall the photoshop and resinstall it, even though I use the beat too, contexual task bar seems to be some else that I can not reach now :) Is there a solution for that?

For years my workflow in PS was: open Tiffs with layers, edit, export in JPEG, close all, save before closing. It was perfect.Now, after I export my Tiffs, opened files are marked as saved. So I have to enter EACH file, one by one, and fake an edit, then I can save them all.EVERY. TIME.What’s the point of changing the logic fo faile saving? Is there a way to come back to the old logic?

Camera Raw V 18.3 wont recognise Hasselblad FFF files. I downloaded V 14 which recognises the files but the camera raw dialogue windows are corrupt and you cant see any of the dialogue boxes.

When launching Photoshop the following error appears on screen:“could not apply the saved panel configuration, resetting to default”After the application starts up, workspace can be restored back to the saved preferred layout and everything function correctly. This started with 27.1 and has continued in to 27.3There was also already a thread on here where Adobe said it was being looked in to and myself and others had submitted error logs to show where it appeared to flagging the error. After the community change here, that previous bug report has disappeared from the link resolving there or finding it via search so adding a new till it gets addressed.  

When using curves, changes in the image occur in jerks/frame by frame. The responsiveness of the curves themselves is also affected. Any change is delayed and accompanied by a jerk. PC:CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800XGPU: Radeon RX 6600 XT 8 ГбRAM: 32 Гб

After cropping out the layer outside of the original image, GE should fill in the blanks.It is telling me to drag out the canvas first but I’ve already done so.I attached a screenshot. 

Photoshop 27.4 and 27.5 are completely broken on Win 11 with an NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti. The app freezes when selecting the Remove Tool, changing any panels, or opening the New Document screen. On exit, it consistently hangs in the background and won't close on its own; you have to kill the process manually, which resets all setting changes.Version 27.3.1 and below work as intended. Additionally, 27.4 and 27.5 work just fine on a PC with Win 10 and an AMD W5500. The issue seems to be specific to Win 11.

I'm experiencing an error, specifically with screenshots taken on my iPhone 16 Pro with the new "HDR" screenshots option enabled in the iOS 26 settings (General > Screen Capture > HDR)   I'll attach an example screenshot HEIC file, as you can see it causes the same error as OP. If you can't reproduce with it I can attach system info and try some other troubleshooting.   The setting:    Error box. It happens in both the Photoshop beta (27.0.0 20250921.m.3233 a60f1d2 x64 (beta, PublicBeta)) and stable (26.10.0 20250811.r.7 595d3a6 x64 (final, Release))   The error does not occur with HEIC images that were taken with the camera for me, only screenshots it seems. And only the HDR screenshots, because otherwise they're taken as PNGs.   Also importantly, Windows explorer will not show a thumbnail preview of the HEIC files that cause an error in Photoshop (but will show thumbnails of "working" HEIC files like the ones from the camera I mentioned). So I th

Sometimes, and seemingly at random, Hue Sat layers will become blank (no UI) until I restart Photoshop. Unfortunately it only happens after having the program open for quite a while and I cannot at all tell what triggers it or how to reproduce. Let me know if there’s any sort of diagnostic I can provide, though. SysInfo and screenshot of what I’m talking about attached.

Adobe Photoshop 2026Technical Bug Report for Adobe Photoshop 2026Subject: Issue with Canvas Size Unit Synchronization with Ruler PreferencesDescription: After the latest Photoshop 2026 update, there is a persistent issue where the Canvas Size dialog box does not automatically synchronize with the active Ruler Units. Previously, changing the Ruler units (e.g., from Pixels to Inches) would reflect as the default unit when opening the Canvas Size window. Currently, it requires manual adjustment every time, which disrupts the workflow.Steps to Reproduce: Set the Ruler units to 'Pixels' or 'Inches' by right-clicking the Ruler or via Preferences. Navigate to Image > Canvas Size. Observe that the unit in the Canvas Size dialog does not match the active Ruler unit (it often defaults to a previously used unit or a fixed standard). Expected Behavior: The Canvas Size dialog should automatically detect and match the primary Ruler unit set by the user to ensure consistency in measurement and

In the latest update Adobe changed the way EXR files are loaded in Photoshop (nobody asked for that, but hey, they know what ther’re doing! NOT.) Now you’re prompted to load the alpha as layer mask or transparency, but there’s no option to have it loaded as plain simple channel... (Adobe, do you know RGBA?)Can we have it back please? (And maybe do not break things in the future too?)

In the Dutch version of Photoshop 2026 on macOS, there is a confusing translation in the Actions panel.When you open “Handelingsopties” (Action Options) for an action and assign a Function Key shortcut, you can enable two modifiers: “Shift” and “Opdracht”. The label “Opdracht” is currently used for the Command key modifier.In Dutch UI terminology, “opdracht” is normally read as “task/command (an instruction)” rather than as the name of a physical modifier key on the keyboard. Because of this, it is not obvious that “Opdracht” refers to the macOS Command (⌘) key. It also risks confusion with other uses of “opdracht” in the interface that refer to an action or command, not a key.I would like to request that this label be changed to something that clearly identifies the keyboard key, for example: “Command‑toets” or “Command (⌘)” This would make the meaning of the modifier consistent with how other modifier keys and the Command key itself are typically named in Dutch UI translations, and

Since updating to 27.5 yesterday I’m encountering a bug where when I switch between channels of a Curves adjustment layer the active point is deselected. This breaks flow and slows down the process of getting the color right, which for me typically involves bouncing back and forth between 2 or all 3 color channels (working in RGB) and making one or two point adjustments with the arrow keys.  To reproduce:Make a new Curves layer Add a point somewhere in the middle of each of the R, G, and B channels.  Press Opt + 3, 4, or 5 to switch between the channels.  Prior behavior: you would still have selected and active the same, nth point on the curve. So, if you were on the Red channel and had tweaked a point in the middle, then switched to Blue which you hadn’t touched yet, you’d have the 255,255 point active since it was the second point on the curve. Once all three channels had a point though, switching between them would keep the midpoint selected for tweaking with the arrow keys. Current

After the 27.5 update, when Photoshop is closed, it stays active in RAM. The same applies to opening and closing individual documents. I have 32 GB of RAM, and if I open several documents—for example, using up 16 GB of RAM—and then close one of them, the consumed memory does not decrease; it remains in memory. It gets to the point where, after an hour of work, RAM usage reaches 29–30 GB. And after closing Photoshop, the memory is not freed until you manually terminate the process in Task Manager. Also, until you end the process via Task Manager, you cannot restart Photoshop.

Hi, whenever I try to use one of the gradients I've created using Adobe Color, I get the ominous "Could not complete your request because of a program error." message. This happens both with "Apply Gradient" and "Create Gradient Preset" in the Libraries panel.   I've encountered this bug both in current Photoshop Beta (Adobe Photoshop Version: 24.5.0 20230412.m.2137 91413a4 arm64) and Photoshop 2023 (Adobe Photoshop Version: 24.4.1 20230418.r.449 53a6c60 arm64). Running macOS Ventura 13.2.1 (22D68). Photoshop User Diagnostic Plugin output is attached for both beta and current Photoshop, also system information from beta.

The "import video to layers" features is unusable after the latest update. Since I use this feature all the time this is critical for me!   - i am using a .mov file that has worked before (prores 4444, 10mb, 3seconds) - clicking ok makes the dialog hang 30 seconds with spinning beach ball - "Making layers" process takes 7 minutes! It took 7 seconds before! - the opened layers are all empty   Macbook Pro M3 Pro, macOS 15.1.1 Photoshop 26.1.0 20241113.r.121
