Photoshop

The quality has dropped to an unusable level. Textures that were rendered beautifully in previous versions now sometimes appear smudged or as if painted in with a brush. There are far more nonsensical fills—like birds randomly appearing in hair or clothes, and extra hands in bizarre places when the image already has two! It’s like AI gone wrong. What happened to quality control? How does the AI actually get worse? This is beyond frustrating. To make things worse, the newest update deleted my older versions, even though the "delete older versions" checkbox was unchecked. It's incredibly frustrating to lose those versions without consent.

Hi, i cant use generative fill, but yesterday it was woking without this error message, can anyone help?

I have this problem with the instability of the crop tool, that is, when I set W and H Resolution dimensions the crop tool menu changes from my preset to Selection or Ratio, or W/H Resolution with no dimensions. When I then re enter the dimensions no crop occurs. The reset tool option does nothing to change this, and the work around I found - closing then reopening the image, then attempting to crop again - is tedious.  Any thoughts or suggestions? iMac: Tahoe 26.0.1PS: 26.11.0

When dragging in the image, only a narrow horizontal band near the first click affects the image and curve. Expected result: The curves histogram is visible and reacts when dragging eyedropper over image. Actual Result: The curves histogram disappears on first click in image, and when dragging over image, only a narrow horizontal band affects the image. Workaround: Click points in image, then select layer properties or context menu to view the histogram.

I keep encountering this bug/glitch. While editing a picture, randomly my Layer Masks keep getting distorted.I have no idea how the issue can be reproduced, but happens to me once every 2-3 hours at least. check the window curve layer mask it changes randomly im using mac mini m4this glitch happened in my other pc also. i also tried reinstalling nothing works. 

On a reasonable sized file if you try to do a smart sharpen it just hangs. Its not frozen, if you come back in 3-5 minutes the zoom may have finally changed. Its not redrawing correctly and painfully slow Same file etc in previous versions has no delays.

unfortunatley everytime i want to download my file or save it i am unable and send an error, i am affraid to close the web tab and lose all my progress

In the iOS app for Photoshop there is currently a bug where, when using the select area mode, using the "brush select" tool in "remove from selection" mode does not work and functions as "add to selection" only in both + and - modes.  

Hi, i have the exact same problem, just wondering if you got around  to find a fix

Hello,    When I try to paint with a clean brush instead of picking up the colour from the base layer, it's selecting the foreground colour even though I've deselected it.  Below you can see: Image 1) I've a base layer.  An empty layer to paint on.  "Load Solid Colours Only" deselected.  Image 2) It should sample from the base layer and allow me to paint with only those colours, but instead it's automatically using the foreground colour.    Anyone else experiencing this bug and found how to fix it?    

I think photoshop 26.11.0 may preview of shadow and highlight doesn't work.Mac OS 14.7.8

So, recently I added Noto Sans Devnagari font to type in Hindi, and to do so I added the text through the Text tool, and it added the dummy text of 'Lorem Ipsum’, but when I tried typing in Hindi, the suggestions always start with word 'Ipsum' added to it. This issue is not making me type the first word correctly and the only solution from me is to type it in any other app and copy+paste the word in Photoshop. From subsequent words the suggestion works normally.   For the reference I've added a small video of the issue.

There used to be a Pull Down Menu in the Font Tool bar that lets you select the anti-aliasing type. I noticed it is gone since Photoshop 26.10 on Windows. Has it moved somewhere else or is this a bug?     Using Windows 10.

In adjustment panels using the 'p' to toggle the preview does not work when you changing numeric values with your arrow keys: you actually start entering 'P' in the boxes!

Clone Stamp feature is not functioning. It won't let me set a source.

When I adda photo to photoshop, it won't show me my edits and then after some time just crashes out. Annoying as this is not a cheap program but it's acting like one.

I have removed two Topaz Photoshop plug-ins from my computer in all the required places. The removed Plug-Ins still show up in the Automate Menu even though I believe I have trashed all related plug-in files. The file below shows the two plug-ins circled in red that remain. I have found no way to stop this from showing up. I have gone into the plug-ins folder and other Adobe preference files. This is happening on my Mac Studio and MacBook Pro with all updated system software. (Tahoe 26.0.1) Any advice would be helpful!  

Some days i open PS but see this instead: "You can't open the application "Adobe Photoshop 2025" because it may be damaged or incomplete." It is hard to get it reopened. I can't find any old invoice or serial numbers to help me. And I really don't what I will do when my payment needs to be updated!

In the last Photoshop 21.2.1 release there is a bug with the rotate view tool. In floating window mode when Rotating the View, the center of the rotation moves to a different area of the image - the compass doesn't stay fixed to the rotation point. In Full screen this doesn't occur. please fix.

Ever since the update 26.11 I am unable to replace color by eyedropping the background swatch.   Image>Adjustments>Replace Color   When you click on the on result to change color, the color picker window opens. From there you could eye drop the background color from the tools panel. The eye dropper icon doesn't come up at all anymore when clicking foreground/background color.

Remove tool is creating unwanted generative fill on empty pixels of the image in Photoshop 26.11. I'm using Windows 10

i use release 26.11.0 of photoshop on windows 10. when i move the content of a layer or a mask only one moves.of course both mask and layer a linked so they should move both. i already reseted the photoshop preferences, rebooted etc. i am the only one with this problem? 

To resize proportionally, one has to hold down the Shift key while moving a corner handle. Unfortunately, this disables the snapping to smart guides: when view>snap guides is active, resizing a layer is supposed to auto-align to the edges of other layers, but it is not the case when doing it from a corner handle while holding down shift, a common practice. Shift-resizing a middle handle does respect the wanted snapping behavior. CTRL is the shortcut supposed to disable snapping, not Shift.

    When I save a PDF, it appears in black and white, the images change shape, and I see a diffuse line pattern, like on old TVs. I've already changed the settings by unchecking "Preserve Photoshop editability" and checked that both the file and the PDF are in RGB, but that hasn't worked. What can I do?
