Photoshop 2026 will not open any JPEG files. I receive a message that says “Could not open “file name” because the file was not found.” Yes, the files are there and are uncorrupted– Preview and other other apps have no problem with the JPEGs. It does not matter if the files are local, on a drive, or wherever. Also, photoshop has no issue opening PNGs, PSDs, or really any other normals file formats. I recently updated, reinstalled, restarted, and deleted photoshop 2025 from my machine to try to remedy the problem. I’m working on an iMac 2020 with Sequoia 15.7.3As a work around, I’ve been opening the JPGs in Preview and copying and pasting them into a Photoshop file, but I’d prefer a real fix over this method.

Ever since I got a new M5 MacBook Pro Photoshop either freezes on launch or locks up just as it finishes launching. It's unusable. All I can do is force-quit. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app (twice) and renamed the prefs folder so it would generate a new one but nothing works.

The bounding box of the transform tool is in the wrong location and not properly scaled when used on warped text. It does snap back to correct scale and location when a corner of it is selected but reverts once the transform is deselected again.Photoshop version is 27.5Off center and wrong scale bounding box on warped text 

New version of Save for Web with updated UI will not assign presets (JPEG or PNG) to individual slices. Changing the Preset setting now changes the setting for all user slices. So the workaround is to save out the slices for each format needed separately now. Seems like a bug to me, I have been using this workflow for several years.

Hey everyone, i've noticed that when I add bullet-listing styling to my paragraphs and then export them to pdf the symbols don't appear (watch image 1) , they only do when exporting to png or before exporting (see image 2) Does anyone know how to solve this? Or is it a bug? Photoshop 2025, version 26.3.0 release

Hello,For several updates now, I’ve lost a very important feature in the Layers panel regarding the blending mode dropdown menu. I used to be able to scroll through the blending modes using the mouse wheel, which was extremely convenient. Now I’m forced to change modes by opening the Layer FX panel, which is much less fluid (I’m on a PC version).What’s even more surprising is that the search filter in the Layers panel, just above the blending mode dropdown, still allows scrolling with the mouse wheel.I hope you can restore this functionality that has always been there. Thank you!

I have had a Creative Cloud CC plan for years. This morning when I opened my app and clicked on Photoshop it began to open but then disappeared. I rebooted my computer. I tried every possible fix. I tried the Repair option. Nothing works. Now what do I do?

Hello, I've found a possible spelling error in the Spanish version of the Photoshop app and wanted to report it so it can be fixed. This error appears in the FEATURED section and says "explore lo mejro de Photoshop" instead of "lo mejor".Al momento de abrir la aplicación en Photoshop en la parte de Destacados existe un error ortográfico, debería decir lo mejor  

Hi everyone,I’m looking for help with a recurring issue when saving scanned PNG images as PDF files in Photoshop (27.3.1). Recently, the PDFs generated are partially corrupted or misread by Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Photoshop.The Problem: When I open these PDFs in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, I get the following error:"The dimensions of this page are out-of-range - Page content might be truncated."The page size appears as 1x1 mm, making the content cropped and pixeled.What I’ve discovered so far: Third-party viewers: If I open the same PDF with PDF-XChange, it displays perfectly with the correct dimensions. Re-opening in Photoshop: If I open the "corrupt" PDF back in Photoshop, it also shows the wrong 1x1mm size. The "Workaround": If I check the box "Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities" when saving, Photoshop is able to reopen the file correctly, but Acrobat still struggles with it. Has anyone encountered this "out-of-range" dimension issue recently? Is there a specific setting i

Photoshop 2025 bug: auto numbering in lists using text tool causes file corruptionI have identified a bug. I noticed that a new feature was when you use the text tool and type1. text 2. text 3. text this triggers auto numbering.  Well it took me four hours to figure out this is what was currupting my files and it is very repeatable When you try to reopen the file, it says a problem wont allow it.   The auto numbering in text tool had been working ok without file corruption until very recently.   If I paste a list in text tool with numbers alread in place, it corrupts the file if I start inserting numbers before a list in the text tool, it corrupts   my work around is this: I type or paste this: text text text   to create a numbered list i do this:   t1. ext t2. ext t3. ext   than i backspace to remove the first letter to create my desire:   1. text 2. text 3. test   the auto numbering feature either needs to be removed or fixed   under

Hi everyone, I would like to report this explicitly as a bug report, and I kindly ask that it not be moved to the Questions section again. The behavior is reproducible in my setup and appears to involve the interaction between Photoshop 27.6, Windows Ink, the Remove Tool, and assigned Wacom pen side switches. Short description In Photoshop 27.6, using the Remove Tool repeatedly causes a massive memory increase. Photoshop then becomes unresponsive for a while and eventually shows the error message: “The operation could not be completed because there is not enough RAM.” In my tests, this happens when using the Wacom pen, but not when performing the same Remove Tool actions with the mouse. Key findingI ran several comparison tests with the same file while monitoring Windows Task Manager. Test 1 – Remove Tool with mouse inputPhotoshop 27.6 Windows Ink enabled Remove Tool input with the mouse 46 Remove Tool strokes no freeze no RAM errorMemory usage increases somewhat, but remains controlle

 selection and deletion of objects are done on the device or in the cloud, but the device has not been working for six months, so I use the cloud version. However, now the cloud version starts the search slider, and after a couple of seconds, it displays that no objects have been found 

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

@Sameer K, I tested this again just now and noted the steps (Windows 11 Pro; Photoshop 27.8 Release).Launch Photoshop from the Creative Cloud Desktop app.Open TIFF file.Image > Canvas Size. Dialogue opens in Pixels.Change to Inches.Click OK.Close TIFF file.Open JPG file.Image > Canvas Size.Dialogue opens in Pixels.Change to Inches.ADD a width of .25 Inches.Click OK.Canvas is extended correctly, but I want to add more.Image > Canvas Size.Dialogue opens in Pixels.Change to Inches.Click OK.Rinse and repeat ad infinitum!

The system is running an up-to-date version of Windows 10 with the latest Nvidia Studio drivers. The Shadows/Highlights settings dialog has always provided a live preview while moving the sliders, provided the live preview option was enabled. Since the latest update to PS 27.8, however, the live preview no longer appears as soon as a slider is clicked or activated with the mouse. The preview remains hidden for as long as the slider is being moved or remains active; the preview only appears once the slider is released.  

When using the Move tool to reposition/shift a Pattern Fill layer, the on-canvas result is not calculated live. The move is registered internally (the pattern's actual position does change), but the canvas does not visually redraw to reflect it. Toggling the layer's visibility off and back on (hide > unhide) forces Photoshop to redraw and show the correct, updated position.Steps to reproduce:1. Create or open a document with a Pattern Fill layer (Layer > New Fill Layer > Pattern).2. Select the Move tool (V) with the Pattern Fill layer active/targeted.3. Click and drag on the canvas to reposition the pattern.Expected result:The pattern shifts and the canvas updates live, in real time, as it did in Photoshop 2025.Actual result:The canvas does not visually update while/after dragging. The move has actually occurred (confirmed because toggling the layer's visibility off then on forces a redraw that shows the pattern in its new, correct position), but there is no live visual feedba

Issue summary: Since Photoshop 2025 (exact version unknown, but after 25.12.4) direction-based brush strokes, when set in the brush settings (Shape Dynamics - Angle Jitter - Direction), are not working properly. The very first 'pixel' of nearly every stroke is angled about 90 degrees perpendicular, before correcting itself immediately as the stroke continues. This breaks a previously working workflow. The problem is only mitigated by using external stabilisation (I’m using Lazy Nezumi Pro with light smoothing), which suggests the issue is related to how initial pen input samples are handled at stroke start. I also ideally need to have 1% smoothing enabled in Photoshop, or the bug can lightly reoccur occasionally. Using older Photoshop versions avoids the issue, but this is not a viable long-term solution due to other compatibility and stability concerns. I have used these brushes for years with no issues until recently.Product and version: 25.12.4. (laptop) the bug does not occur in th

v25.11 and still the same problem!

Hello Adobe Support Team,After updating to Photoshop v27.3 and v27.3.1, I encountered an issue when using the Curves adjustment.When adjusting Curves on the composite RGB channel (not individual R, G, or B channels), if I make an additional adjustment afterward, a residual or ghosted image from the previous adjustment appears. If I switch to another layer and then return to the original layer, the residual image disappears. However, if I continue adjusting the Curves, the ghosting issue reappears.I tested this behavior by downgrading to Photoshop v27.2, and the issue does not occur in that version. The Curves adjustment works as expected in v27.2 without any residual artifacts.This issue seems to be specific to v27.3 and v27.3.1 and may be related to how Curves adjustments are refreshed or rendered.Thank you for your time and support. I hope this information is helpful for identifying and resolving the issue.

Version 27.7.0 / WIndowsI oftentimes add many guides (by exact percentage) to my documents.So I use the New guide pop-up.It was always a quick and streamlined process as the number field was preselected, I just had to write in it and hit Enter. Now I have to manually click in (or Tab into) the number field to be able to write my numbers.This is clearly a regression because of the new pop-up. So I consider it a bug.I think the Canvas Size dialog box already had the same problem, so you could consider it a feature request there and in every other pop-up too: Always the first input field should be the active one, not the OK button which makes not much sense.That could be pushed by hitting Enter no matter what part of the pop-up is active.Thanks for looking into it!

Photoshop CC Version: 23.0.1 Operating System: Windows 10   I am a new user to Photoshop CC, but I have been using Photoshop CS6 and older versions over the course of 15 years.  A quality of life change that I noticed in CC is that whenever I use the type tool, it no longer allows me to move the text by dragging anywhere outside the editable area when the type tool is active.  There appears to be an invisible "bounding box" that only allows me to move the text within a specific region before the cursor reverts back to my OS cursor and immediately commits the text rather than letting me drag it around.  Additionally, when I click to place text and the line is blank, I have no option whatsoever to move the text unless one character is added.  This is incredibly frustrating to work with as the type tool has never behaved this way prior to CC and I don't understand why this functionality was changed.   Upon further research, I noticed optional extensions

I'm using Photoshop with a Wacom pen display (Cintiq Pro).When Photoshop is configured to use Wintab, pen strokes may show noticeable jitter at low canvas zoom levels (for example, 12.5%), especially when drawing slowly.Symptoms:Most visible when drawing smooth diagonal or curved lines Appears similar to low-resolution screen coordinate input Stroke position accuracy is reduced More noticeable at lower zoom levelsThe pen tablet seems to be behaving as if its tracking accuracy has dropped to the level of the screen resolution. In terms of actual hardware performance, the accuracy should be the same as Windows Ink.System:Wacom Cintiq Pro, and dual-monitor setup (total 3 monitors)wintab enabledPhotoshop :from older to recent version all
