I upgraded to PS 2026, but my custom actions did not migrate from PS 2025 even though I had selected to migrate presets and actions.The Actions still work in PS 2025, but the corresponding atn files do not show up in the Actions folder in Finder, which is probably why they did not migrate.I recreated one of these Actions manually in PS 2026, saved it, used it, but it also does not show as an atn file in the Actions folder.If I try to Save Action from PS 2025 into PS 2026, the the file shows as greyed out.So it looks as though my custom atn files exist as ghosts ?Can’t see this specific issue addressed in the Help community, but please advise.

I need to move some of my text layers on an invitation to add one in between them. When I do move a layer, or turn off it’s visibility, it leaves behind a white cutout in the original position.See here where I’ve moved the black text up.

Your background removal tool has seen significant improvements over the past month. However, why is the quality of the path generated by the „Arbeitspfad aus Auswahl erstellen“ in German Photoshop <<Make Work Path from Selection>> function so poor?In my daily workflow, creating clipping paths for stock agencies and product libraries remains extremely time-consuming. Even in 2026, such clipping paths are still required. Yet, the current automatic path generation produces flawed angles and far too many anchor points. The resulting clipping path is useless and is rejected by database systems!Please help me speed up the manual creation of clipping paths in Photoshop 2026 by modernizing the "Make Work Path from Selection" function and fully leveraging the background removal engine. It is crucial that the process doesn't place thousands of points—using perhaps only 10–15% would suffice—while still delivering a satisfactory result. Humans are capable of this; it would be great if
One particular font on my system (Highway Gothic) suddenly has a bug on Photoshop. I’ve used it daily for 2 years and it continues to work without issue on other applications (including Adobe Animate). On Photoshop, this particular font resizes the text cursor so ridiculously large it’s unusable. This began last week randomly. See the attached screenshot – default settings, 6 pt at 300 DPI, the cursor is more than double the size of the canvas. Have tried deleting/reinstalling the font, deleting Photoshop’s font cache, the settings file, updating, resetting the character panel, and restarting my computer. I can’t get this font to go back to working normally.
instead of preserving the document size. When using File → Save a Copy… → Photoshop PDF, an A3 Photoshop document is exported as a PDF with a US Letter MediaBox (215.9 × 279.4 mm) instead of the original A3 page size (297 × 420 mm). The exported PDF is cropped accordingly. The issue has been reproduced on multiple Windows on ARM devices using the native ARM version of Photoshop and has persisted across several Photoshop releases.
Hi everybody, I have a very big file which I can’t open in PS because the scratch disc is full. The size is 6800 x 4900px. The advice I have found online suggests creating 100GB of space. I have roughly 25GB on my Mac which only has 251GB in total. Is there a way of working out how much space you would need to open and work on a particular file rather than creating 100GB of space if that’s not necessary for that particular file. My file is very big at 6800 x 4900px but it’s only 4 layers. Does anybody have any ideas?Thanks,Gareth
Hi everyone,After installing the latest Photoshop update, the application has become extremely slow. Opening PSD files, switching layers, using the Brush tool, applying filters, and saving files all take much longer than before.I've already tried:Resetting Photoshop preferences Clearing the cache Updating GPU drivers Enabling GPU acceleration Increasing RAM allocation Disabling pluginsUnfortunately, nothing has improved. My PC meets the recommended system requirements, and other Adobe apps work normally.Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a known fix or workaround?For reference, I also document software troubleshooting on Workervoice.in.
Hello, sometimes I get a weird bug where I can't Paste a copied image into an active canvas in photoshop. To fix the problem I have to jump through some specific hoops (hoping this is helpful to you guys for fixing the bug, too)The problem:Sometimes when I Right click (in my browser for example) > Copy image > Paste into my acvtive photoshop canvas > The previous/wrong/cached file from the clipboard is pasted in. No matter if i use Ctrl+V or Edit > Paste, same result. The solution:I have to goto File > New (note this is actually the wrong canvas size, it should be the copied file dimensions like it normally is) > Create > Paste now works > Close this new file > Paste again in my canvas and NOW it does work.It's bizarre. Note this doesn't always happen. Maybe 50% of the time only. I'm on windows 10, and I keep my photoshop up to date (subscription)Any help is much appreciatedThanks
Hi,Thanks to all who submitted images in our previous album cover challenge. There were some great ideas and great covers.This week we start with 4 simple fruit. You can use one or all of them in creating a new image. The only limit is your imagination, how far can you take it? The “rules”: Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used. There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go! The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only. To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the
All of sudden my Adobe Express is continuously freezing up. This never happened before after using the program for years. The only way out is for me to sign out of Windows 11 and resign back in. I’m updated in every way and using Edge. No other web program is freezing, only Express. I even tried resetting my browser, but still no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Updated photoshop to 27.8 and the banding on gradients is really bad, PS27.7 was absolutely fine.Attached is a screenshot of PS27.7 alongside PS27.8.You can see clearly the banding, this has only happened because of the update, not anything that I have done.Anyone else had this issue? As I can't seem to find a solution online.

This concerns Adobe CS5. Recently, Windows 10 had catostrophic crashes on both my desktop and notebook PCs; after which neither was operable to be able run my Adobe software and Deactivate my licenses on each machine. Up until the crashes, my CS5 software has always worked fine on both machines. I upgraded to Windows 11 on the desktop, and reinstalled Windows 10 on the notebook. After reinstalling CS5 on both machines, CS5 won’t work on either, telling me “Activation limit reached...”I called Adobe Support, but they refuse to reset the Activations, and I’m unable to do so when logged-in to my Adobe account. Adobe Support and their website states that “Activation servers for end-of-life software have been disabled.” But this is contradictory to the facts! If the servers are disabled, then why was I able to run CS5 on both computer under Windows 10 for all these years, including until recently? Something stinks. I’m a very light user of Photoshop, InDesign, etc., and I don’t want to have
Photoshop 27.8.0's Remove tool leaks memory that isn't released between operations. On a 32GB system, opening three files via Lightroom and applying about four Remove passes drove RAM to full capacity and caused a complete system freeze, not just an app hang. The OS itself stopped responding, including Task Manager, and required a hard power off to recover. Afterward, GPU hardware acceleration was disabled in Photoshop's Performance preferences as a workaround, since the leak appears tied to GPU memory accumulating per Remove pass with no ceiling, meaning more installed RAM would only delay the crash rather than prevent it. Current testing with GPU acceleration off shows RAM around 20GB with two to three files open and no Remove passes yet, holding steady in a normal one gigabyte band rather than climbing, though a pre launch baseline reading is still needed to confirm whether 20GB is itself elevated or just the normal cost of having files open.
Hi, I bought the Photoshop CS6 Full Extended version online and recently when I try to re-install to my PC, it keeps asking me to input the serial number, however, I only have the licence key and can't find the serial number in the email. Could you please tell me what should I do ? Thanks, Amy
I tried opening Photoshop this morning but I kept getting a message that it cannot open. I went to my Creative Cloud and it said Photoshop was not installed. It directed me to use Photoshop on the web browser. I downloaded the DMG file and opened it (working on a MAC) and it now works but ALL my Actions, Presets and Brushes from years of collection are gone. How do I get them back?
My photoshop will not open. Plus it will not let me take out photo from lightroom classic and move to Photoshop. The computer and graphics are all up to date. This has worked for years and now nothing.
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
