P: PS 27.7 Modern UI: Save For Web file names cannot copy/paste text

Just tested on my system, and it’s working fine, although I’m on Windows 11, so it might be a Photoshop/macOS issue

​@lucky.taniguchi what exactly do you mean, when I open the save for web dialog the focus is on the save icon, can you post a screenshot to highlight the issue

When using File > Export > Save for Web (Legacy), the Save dialog appears, but keyboard focus is not placed on the dialog correctly.

In Photoshop 27.7and 27.8 go to Photoshop>Settings>Technology Previews, uncheck Enable Modern User Interface and restart Photoshop.

Check If you still have the same issue with Save for Web.

I’ve noticed this bug since Photoshop 27.7, and it seems to still be an issue in 27.8. I use the Save For Web & Devices option when exporting images all of the time for my job. I noticed in 27.7, we got a fancy new UI for that particular dialogue box, but it seems that it is bugged. After hitting the Save button in that dialogue, my system (Mac OS Sequoia 15.7.7) dialogue box opens to let me name my file and choose its location. However, in this system dialogue, I can no longer access the keyboard shortcuts for Copy or Paste (a huge productivity issue when it comes to naming files). It provides an audio cue, the little “pop” noise on Mac that typically results from an inaccessible action, and I’m stuck having to key in file names manually.

I don’t know if the new Save For Web & Devices UI is the culprit, but I only notice the issue on Photoshop 27.7 and 27.8. Photoshop 27.6 uses the old UI, and so I’ll have to continue using that until this issue is fixed.

Experiencing the same issue. It's been slowing down my workflow quite a bit, so hopefully there's a fix coming soon.

macOS Tahoe 26.5
Photoshop 27.7

Same issue. It’s because the Photoshop edit dropdown menu is greyed out (unavailable for all options in the edit dropdown, including paste) in the Save For Web Mac OSX save dialog box. If you choose SAVE AS or SAVE A COPY the paste and other functions work because those options are available and not grey out in the edit menu. Very annoying as it slows down my workflow considerably. Please fix ASAP.

Hi ​@Corey_Scholl , thanks for reaching out to the Photoshop Community Forums! Let's try a few things first to see if we can resolve this issue.
1. Confirm that Command + V is not overridden by another application or system shortcut. You can check this by going to System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts and reviewing the settings.

2. Try manually resetting your Photoshop preferences: https://adobe.ly/4a8djIr. Remember to back up your settings before doing the preference reset: https://adobe.ly/4tYgfyo
If neither of these steps works, we can continue to troubleshoot the issue. I hope this helps! ^CH

Unable to use Paste (apple v) when editing the file name when exporting the image. Clip board key commands for cut, copy and paste are NOT working today. Today is the very first issue. I have already restarted and no luck. Hitting Control and then the option of Paste works to edit the save name. But NOT Command V. I’m sure your team is working on this but just incase this is a NEW error. Keep up the great work -- Been working with photoshop daily since 1996. Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.7.0 20260514.r.11 fa4476d  arm64 (final, Release) Number of Launches: 91 Operating System: Mac OS 26.5.0
