Photoshop

Do you have a dream? I know i do. To one day own a functional adobe product that doesn’t consistently crash. To never again have to experience a crash DURING a save which not only corrupts the working file but wipes the autorecover folder because Photoshop thought the save went well, losing two days of work that now has to be immediately all redone. It’s ok Adobe, I didn’t have any plans for the next 16 hours anyway. I’ve been hurt by you before, it was my fault to trust you not to completely make a mess of the bed.Oh, and the hue/saturation properties bug prevalent in PS 2025 STILL isn’t fixed for 2026.

I want to create Action to access Shadow/Highlight in Photoshop 2026 on my new Mac. I had it on my old Mac, so I know it was possible. When I try to record, it says there are no actions listed. Can someone please explain how to do this?

The function perfectly identifies distractions but, in the elimination phase using the cloud, 9 times out of 10 it reports that the Internet connection is missing, when in fact it is perfectly active.

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 know that there is some problem with reflection removal section, but in camera raw, it is not working also, it cant remove anything, do you know guys how to solve this problem, or its a worldwide problem? 

회사에서 PSD를 공유해서 사용 중인데다들 폰트가 잘 뜨는데 (16, 17pt ...)저한테만 아래 이미지처럼 소수점으로 뜹니다.사이즈도 한참 작아지구요...해결방법이 있을까요? 

I didn't renew Photoshop, but I used it to do a revision, even without renewing, and because of that, the Photoshop watermark appears in Canva. I tried merging some layers as I did before, but the command doesn't work and the option to merge layers doesn't appear. I also tried using Camera Raw, and it appears grayed out. Could it be because I haven't renewed the license? Thank you.

I am reviewing selects from a shoot in Bridge and opening in Photoshop. Camera Raw 18.3 opens and has an error reading “operation could not be completed” and when I click Okay. It just opens the error again. The only way to make it go away is by force quitting Photoshop

Performing a "Quick Export" as PNG causes macOS Finder to freeze and become unresponsive when attempting to view the file preview, subsequently hanging the Photoshop application.Adobe Photoshop 2026macOS Tahoe 26.3.1 Mac Studio (2022) Apple M1 Max 64 GB Macintosh HD Steps to Reproduce: Open a document in Photoshop. Trigger a "Quick Export" as PNG to a chosen directory (local or server). Immediately switch to Finder and attempt to view the file preview of the newly saved PNG. Observe macOS Finder freeze and become unresponsive. Finder cannot be successfully force-relaunched. Photoshop enters a "frozen" state, preventing successful backup saves even after a force quit. Result: macOS Finder freezes immediately upon attempting to preview the file, causing a system-level hang that traps both Finder and Photoshop, preventing backup/recovery. No error message is displayed; the system simply stops responding to Finder actions and only way to make it work is force restarting the

Just downgraded Photoshop V27.8 and it fails to open - dreaded spinning colour wheel. Anyone else experiencing this problem.

OS Sequoia 15.7.7, and have isolated this issue down to a problem with the color profile not embedding correctly in a PSD file. This directly affects the ‘Quick Preview’ on Mac.Same files with no changes in workflow, both in Photoshop as ProPhoto RGB color profile, and both saved with box mark checked ‘Embedded Color Profile: ProPhoto RGB’ 

Photoshop stops working when I try to change brush size or brush hardness. When I right click and change the brush size, the window freezes and doesn’t change the size or hardness. It does that if I right click or if I change the size in the box.Tried resetting preferences, tried restarting computer, tried restarting photoshop, tried resetting brush tools, tried removing ‘’smoothing’’ option. Nothing works and it’s very inconvenient as I use this feature every 5 minutes.On Windows 11 with wacom intuos pro, drivers up to date, photoshop up to date, and computer up to date. I tried changing the size with my mouse and it freezes too, so probably not a tablet issue.

all my action suddnly disapeared!i just used them yestarday, and now all gone (not even in photoshop presets),is there a way to restore them? there where a lot and important ones....

So I'm trying to export my print file in photoshop and its limiting me to a 46.87% size. It always does this for larger prints. Is there a work around for this where I can export the actual size, like 106x87 inch 300ppi document? Thanks guys!

MacBook Pro, Tahoe 26.5.1, PS 2026. PS somehow got corrupted and will not launch. I ran the PS uninstaller but the app was not deleted even after restart. However my account appears to show it uninstalled as the “3 dots” does not have an uninstall option.

How to get the preferences or workspace to stay when restarting?

Temperature and tint color correction completely lost their precision after last updates. There is no way anymore to make precision correction inside Photoshop and Camera Raw because you increased low and high slider values and +1 -1 minimum slider values are too much. +1 create too much visible temperature change. Minimum slider value should be decimals like 0.1

Hi everyone.I’m looking for an offline tool that can reduce JPG/PNG export sizes from Photoshop or Lightroom without noticeable loss of detail or color accuracy.I work with large batches of images (client galleries, events, etc.) and I’m trying to optimize storage and upload times while keeping fine details like skin texture, hair, fabric patterns, and micro‑contrast intact.Recently I came across a tool called ETK Image Compressor Pro, which claims up to 90% size reduction while preserving detail. It’s Windows‑native and works after exporting from Adobe apps.Has anyone here tested similar offline tools or has experience with this one?

I used firefly yesterday for the first time within photoshop, using firefly within photoshop. i went to finish up today. I have plenty of credits, i keep getting oops something went wrong. I certainly didnt do anything wrong. I was working on some character reference, and some things for discord challenges with google and nanobanna tools. any help would be great. ive been a pro subscriber with a adobe for a very long time. and firefly before wasnt much in my workflow, but now with the challeges from google and discord gave me a reason to try it. and certainly i want to use it within photoshop. 

I create a selection, use generative ai to add (in this case) a grass lawn. Why does it not follow the lines of the selection? Why does it not completely fill in the selection? Thank you for your help!!Best wishes,SP
