Photoshop

I’m using a MacBook Pro.  I’ve changed nothing either in PS or my computer since last use.

I would like to add another production example of this issue.We work with large numbers of Photoshop EPS files in a professional retouching and colour-managed production workflow. Since using Photoshop 27.10, I receive the following warning when opening these files:“This document contains Adobe Photoshop data which appears to be damaged. Continue and ignore the Photoshop data?”The files continue to open after clicking OK and the image data appears visually intact. However, I have noticed an additional problem which may be important for colour-managed workflows.The affected EPS files open in Photoshop 27.10 as Untagged CMYK.Our production EPS files normally contain an embedded CMYK ICC profile, so Photoshop appears to be failing to read or retain this information when the warning occurs.Because these are production files used for colour-critical retouching, losing the embedded CMYK profile is potentially more serious than the warning message itself.I have therefore reverted to an earlie

Hi everyone,I'm experiencing persistent freezing and severe performance issues in Photoshop 2026 on Windows 11, and I'm hoping someone can help me identify the cause.System specifications OS: Windows 11 Home, build 26300 CPU: Intel Core i7-13700KF GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti (12 GB VRAM) RAM: 32 GB NVIDIA driver: 617.42 Photoshop: 2026 (27.x) The problemThe New Document window sometimes freezes immediately after opening. If I wait long enough, it may eventually become responsive and allow me to create a document.The problem also occurs while editing existing PSD files. Photoshop may work initially, but after a while the interface becomes extremely sluggish or freezes temporarily. Sometimes Windows reports that Photoshop is not responding, but it can recover after waiting. This makes it very difficult to work normally.I also experienced similar sluggishness with Photoshop Beta. Rolling back to an earlier Photoshop version improved the situation slightly, but did not resolv

Hi everyone,I’m using a Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 with Snapdragon X Elite (Windows 11 ARM 64-bit) and I’ve been running Adobe Creative Cloud, Photoshop, Illustrator (beta), and Lightroom without any issues until last week.Since a recent Windows update or possibly an Adobe update, none of the apps will launch anymore – not even the Creative Cloud Desktop app itself.When I try to start Creative Cloud (or Photoshop), I immediately get the following error message:“The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.”Here’s what I’ve already tried – unfortunately without success:Completely removed all Adobe components using the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool (option 1 = “Clean All”)Restarted the systemVerified that the correct Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 Redistributable (ARM64) is installed (and removed all x64/x86 versions)Ran sfc /scannow and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth to check system filesRe-downloaded the Creative Cloud installer and

Can someone with actual technical knowledge of Photoshop explain what has changed internally with Artboards in recent versions?I am not looking for generic troubleshooting steps. I am trying to understand the technical reason behind what appears to be a significant performance regression in Photoshop's Artboard implementation.The problemIn Photoshop Beta and recent Photoshop releases, basic Artboard operations are extremely slow. Creating a new Artboard can freeze the entire Photoshop UI for several seconds. Deleting an Artboard can freeze Photoshop for several seconds. Duplicating or reorganizing Artboards can introduce noticeable delays. As the document becomes more complex, Artboard-related operations seem to become progressively slower. During these pauses, Photoshop is effectively unresponsive. This does not feel like normal rendering latency — it feels like Photoshop is performing some synchronous document-wide operation every time the Artboard structure changes.Why did thi

Description of issueWhen I export edited photographs from Lightroom Classic as JPEG files, the exported JPEG files are assigned the export date as both their Created date and Modified date.The source RAW files show the correct original dates. In the past, JPEG files exported using this workflow retained the same Created date as the source RAW files. I cannot identify the Lightroom Classic or macOS version in which this behaviour changed.The issue is specifically with the Created and Modified dates of the exported JPEG files. It is not an issue with the source RAW files or with the edits applied in Lightroom Classic.System informationLightroom Classic: version 15.6Operating system: macOS version 27.0.1Source files: RAW files from a Canon EOS 7D Mark IIExport format: JPEGExport destination: internal diskSteps to reproduce1.

New at Photoshop.   Clicked in eyedropper, under text edition command, and now cannot do anything, not even save to exit photoshop.   All commands are innactive, except for windows commands or toolbars selection 🤯    Hope someone can help me. Thanks and BR, David

When I want to replace an element in a photo with generative generation, it doesn't work, and a window pops up saying to check my internet connection. But my internet connection is fine. Sometimes this feature worked well after updating the Windows operating system, but now I can't generate again. Please help!

Having experimented with Generative AI in Photoshop over the last weeks I am genuinely puzzled why at times the resultant will follow my instructions with fair results, at time be unable to translate my instructions to the image, and disturbingly often ignore my instruction entirely.To add to that it often generates 3 version of the mess it makes, thereby ‘costing’ me a substantial load of my credits, or worse extra credits I have paid for in addition to those in my Pro plan. A recent test was a lounge scene where I selected the couch (besides the only couch in the fairly plain scene) and asked it to change to the colour to a particular hex colour and a particular material. In addition I asked that those instructions aside the scene does not change in any way whatsoever. The result: it removed the couch entirely. And for this I lost a substantial amount of my DAI credits. 😖Why? Edit:I’d also like to add that I Adobe a) can clearly see the results are neither saved nor exported and b)

Each time I open photoshop I get a pop-up box   (Couldn’t open the edit log file Photoshop edit log. Edit logging is disabled). Question- Where do I go to enable it?  Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have Photoshop installed in Italian (like all my other Adobe software). To use certain Actions, I need the interface to be in English. Is it possible to add the language so that I can choose which one to use each time in Photoshop's preferences? If that's not possible, how can I install Photoshop in English? I tried uninstalling it, then changing the language in the Creative Cloud app, and reinstalling Photoshop, but it's still in Italian.Thanks 

This issue came up either way earlier this year or last year, I seem to have it show up at least once a year and I can never remember each time how to stop it.But this week photoshop was just fine until a couple days ago or so and now it asks me every single time if I want to save anyways…...uhh yes?  How do I get rid of this notification?nothing is being changed on it, nothing is accessing it any differently than the week/year prior, I literally have not done anything different…...just started on new edits, that’s it.I don’t do anything different in lightroom, it sits in the background exactly the same as it always is when I transfer it over to photoshopI can’t remember what the heck it was I had to do before to stop this random event.  Was there some new update that randomly change settings for no reason?  I already tried going into file handling and told it to NOT ask, but it still asks anyways.   

Remember early Firefly? The one that misunderstood and made such funny wonky images? I need that back. It was fun. Now and then I made a crazy card for someone. A musician friend surrounded by obviously alien musician types. The IOU card for a new desk for my partner - with a picture of a strange multicolored growing computer desk with oddball characters coming out of the screen. I collect a bunch of images from Firefly, and select pieces of them to composite the image I’m after, and I tend to chuckle all the way through. New firefly editions are variously useful and/or frustrating - but they are too serious. Can we have early fun Firefly in a list forever so we can access it?

Hi everyone! Can somebody help me with this Topaz Gigapixel issue in Photoshop?Topaz Gigapixel used to work perfectly fine in my Photoshop, but now it keeps showing an error whenever I try to use it.Here’s what I’ve already checked and tried: ✅ Checked compatibility — everything seems fine. ✅ Updated my graphics card drivers. ✅ Updated the applications. ✅ Checked my internet connection and storage space. ✅ Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. ✅ Tried logging out and logging back in. The weird thing is that my friend tried using my account on their PC, and Topaz Gigapixel worked perfectly fine there. However, it still doesn’t work on my PC.I can’t figure out what’s causing the problem since it works on another computer using the same account.Has anyone experienced the same issue or knows how to fix it? Could it be a problem with Photoshop, my PC settings, or something else?I’d really appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you! 🙏

I’m having trouble selecting a layer using the keyboard shortcut on my Mac (Command-click on the layer icon). It works for some layers but not this one. I’ve never had this problem before. The layer was a smart object and I had used a displacement map to alter it. When the smart layer didn’t select, I rasterized it, but it still didn’t work. Maybe related (I’m not sure), I encountered another strange issue: when I created the file, I pasted in a man from another file. It was raster. I then duplicated the layer and resized this new layer. But when I go into the Camera Raw filter to adjust the exposure (Command-Shift-A on my Mac), it shows me the man in its original size (not the resized image)! What is happening?Thx. PS I just tried to select the man using the Object Select tool and it selected it! Now I’m confused. I’ve never encountered this problem before. The Select Subject button also works. These are working both on the smart object layer and the rasterized layer.
