Photoshop

Recenlty my Photoshop tool icons simply do not appear on the toolbar. they function fine but it is troublesome to find the right tool. The only way I could solve this is to reinstall photoshop but I cannot possibly do that every day.

Sińce few months I’m seeing problem with Photoshop updates. If they started automatically and then I log out or shut down computer not knowing it because updated running in background whole installation crash and the only way is to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop.On MacOS the message when starting program is that installation is incomplete or broken. I have never experienced such error before when doing so - closing computer during updates - it just started again after new session, and no other Adobe apps like Illustrator, Premiere etc. are suffering such as Photoshop.But what is worst. Each time such event broke all preferences so I need to setup Photoshop once again!

Toolbar< Filter< Distort. Distort tool is not working, it is grey from around 1 month. I am using an updated version of photoshop, latest computer configuration. Please resolve the issue as I need it urgently.

Hello everyone,I use the Artboard feature quite frequently, and having this feature in Photoshop greatly simplifies my workflow. However, I've been suffering from serious bugs, lack of optimization, and performance bottlenecks for a long time. The recent updates haven't given enough attention to these issues, making me feel like the development team has neglected this fundamental feature.Gradients are broken. For example, when working with multiple artboards and creating a gradient with the gradient tool, the gradient will appear incorrectly with the default settings, as shown in the image below. I found a temporary solution by removing the default layer mask and creating a new mask with the artboard dimensions. The gradient tool likely calculates the entire canvas rather than just the artboard it's currently on, which can cause the gradient to not work properly.When a gradient fill is added to the artboard, the appearance is determined by the default settings.When the default mask of

When using Content-Aware Fill Photoshop samples all layers instead of the only the layer selected, even though the check mark for "Sample All Layers" is unchecked.This seems to only happen the preview/pre-rendering hasn't fully finished rendering (also when using Content-Aware Fill as part of an Action).If I let the pre-rendering fully finish it does not happen. MacOS Sequoia 15.4.1Photoshop v26.6.1 

Summary: When using PS 27.7.0 the sky replacement feature is unusable as the sky will not be loaded and visible as a preview in your file while you make settings adjustments for it.   (temp fix utilized: downgrading to 27.5.0 regains sky feature usage confirmed)Description:  In 27.7.0 the sky won’t preview in file to see how settings adjust new sky fit.  If you just randomly choose settings and hit done/ok, it will then load the sky into your file.  But I was not able to see what settings were resulting in sky fit to image until after it’s loaded.  Then all you are left with is adjusting the two mask layers that are not as helpful as the sky replacement settings initially are.A coworker still only had 27.5.0 installed and their sky replacement preview still worked.  So I downgraded to 27.5.0 and now mine works again from that version.  I did not attempt 27.6.0 version.  Before downgrading PS version, I attempted to rule out graphic driver by updating Nvidia graphic drivers but did not

it’s taking time to mark the clipping of the photo this wasn’t the case previously 

Photoshop 26.10Windows 10 Pro 22H2I used this last night to remove objects from about 20 pictures, the "open" function was working great, also with the exporting process. No problems. A bit later, I was starting another task, and all I was trying was to drag and drop a picture, remove the background, and collage it with another picture when this stubborn error kept appearing. I was expecting the picture to open on the canvas as a Layer and just do my thing from there. I restarted PS, I restarted computer, I did everything from the guides, I updated the drivers. I also used an older version, same problem. I don't know what else to do. Any suggestion is helpful

When you change the quality setting in Save for Web, the preview no longer automatically updates and instead you have press RETURN for the preview pane to change. This is annoying and inefficient. And if you hit RETURN an extra time by mistake, the save dialog pops up which makes the new interface even more annoying and time consuming!Also the dropdown menu for the image size is far slower than it used to be. Previously, you could just quickly click + or -, now you have to dig through a long list of size options. Sure, you can type a percentage, but you are guessing the size… the old method was quicker and easier.I MUCH, MUCH prefer the previous design. New is NOT better!

Hi everybody, I’m trying to make an advert for my band but I’m having different results in two different files with the same layers and can’t figure out why. I was wondering if anybody can spot the obvious mistake I’ve made?In one file (the one above) I have the album cover with a multiply blend of another image over it and a vertical gradient layer over that. When the gradient layer is on it comes out lighter so you can see the detail underneath. Grave stone etc.I have dragged the exact same layers into a different file which has some other things in it and they appear completely different when the gradient layer is on! This file (the one below) it is way darker! What could be different in file on the left to the file on the right? Many thanks for any ideas. 

(I ran and resolved the 27.10 redish color bug, but in the process I realized that I don’t understand something:)Photoshop 27.10 (bug) shows me pictures the way I get them from the drug store printout. With 27.9.1 the screen colors are in line with all other apps (Lightroom, the windows viewer, scan software and some others) and also hardware (ipad). But the prints look different. I made sure the pictures had sRGB IEC61966… embedded. My display has its manufacturer profile installed. I had naively assumed that pictures with sRGB colorspace included would display “correctly” on the display. But they don’t look like the prints, unless I specifically force the issue by activating color proofing to sRGB in Photoshop itself. What I don’t understand is, why is this so? Why would I want it to look differently on screen? I first thought this is about calibration, but I can force the screen to look like the print with a build in function of Photoshop.I would like to understand the issue. I naiv

I often see new photoshop features advertised that I’d like to try. But when I go to photoshop that feature just isn’t there.For example the new adjustment layer ‘Light’ is not in the drop down like adobe says it is on the official tutorialAnother example is the new 3D rotatable object feature. It is not in the Contextual Task Bar it is not in the ‘Edit’ menu. *I dont mean these features are greyed out I mean they are not there at all**I have latest MacOSX and latest photoshopThese are just two examples but this type of thing has happened before. Any help would be much appreciated

I found the code below on the forum; it makes the image automatically fit the screen when opened.But I want it to fit 46% of the screen—is that possible?Thank you.        var id57 = charIDToTypeID(“slct”);        var desc15 = new ActionDescriptor();        var id58 = charIDToTypeID(“null”);        var ref6 = new ActionReference();        var id59 = charIDToTypeID(“Mn  ”);        var id60 = charIDToTypeID(“MnIt”);        var id61 = charIDToTypeID(“FtOn”);        ref6.putEnumerated(id59, id60, id61);        desc15.putReference(id58, ref6);        executeAction(id57, desc15, DialogModes.NO); 

My move tool will not let me resize my image once I place it. I have the resize box when I 1st input the picture but as soon as I place it the box is gone and I cant get it back. This is a new computer I just got. HP EliteX2 Tablet with keyboard.  Looking for help

I am using Photoshop 7. Yes, I know it is very old. However it has been working fine after the technician installed it on my new Asus windows 11 computer. Yesterday, I began getting the error message "could not complete your request because of program error", whenever I tried to save, or save as my work. I tried hiding my layers, flattening my layers and increasing photoshops cache to 6. Does anyone know of any possible fixes for this, other than reinstalling the program? I don't know if I could reinstall it myself, I would probably have to pay the technician who installed it the first time to do it again. Thank you.

Having passed on or omitted some previous software updates, will the newst update contain vs replace all older ones?

I need to rollback to the earlier version of Photoshop having installed 27.10 which is causing my screen to flicker. I have searched the web and this community and can see lots of videos saying I look for the 3 dots and then open older versions but I don’t see the 3 dots on my Creative Cloud or rather I see the 3 dots but all that takes me to is getting the Mobile App? Help please.  

The title says it all. The latest Photoshop update, 27.10, has a visual bug when adding a second image to the layers.Now I only have the "Enter" key or the "OK" button at the bottom of the screen to do the same thing. It's a bit inconvenient because I like using the button at the top. Incidentally, the distortion modification button is no longer visible either. And when I use the eraser tool, the confirmation buttons disappear as well. It's impossible to confirm in that area.I think this is a code issue related to the responsive effect after adding the two new buttons "AI Assisted" and "Pro Editor", which shifts everything to the right and thus hides the validation or cancel buttons in image editing mode via certain tools.

Photoshop. It used to work like this:I’d type some text (copyright) in the bottom-left corner of the image. Using the cursor, I could then drag it into another open Photoshop project, and it would be placed in the exact same spot—without having to hold down Shift, Ctrl, etc.Now it’s different: When I release the text in the other project, it gets dropped where the cursor is.Why? Why has Adobe been continuously working for the past 4–6 years to make Photoshop WORSE?EDIT: I tried figuring it out for 10mins now. it did not work!Also when moving entire layers that fill the entire canvas - PS messes is up!PS gets less and less reliable for professional jobs :(

Current computer is ~1 year old. No issues until 2 weeks ago. I will open several images, change the size of the one selected, save it, then close that file to go to the next one.Now, when I close the file, the screen blinks off and on twice before opening the next file.I have reset all tools. Running latest version of everything. Intel graphics card.PS works okay but the blinking is an aggravation. 

The setup doesn't work, the photoshop setup AND the CC setup and every other setup? Although it still appears in the Task manager, but nothing happens

I went to the Adobe Exchange looking for a color wheel. I previously purchased Coolorus and installed it. I see it in the Scripts folder of Photoshop, but I can’t find it when I launch Photoshop 2026. I thought maybe it was not compatible. So, I went to the Adobe Exchange and purchased “MagicPicker”. I installed that. I see it in the scripts folder. Again, when I launch Photoshop 2026, I can’t find it!!!I open the Plugins Panel and it’s NOT there! I clicked on the Windows menu and it’s not there either. I searched for help online and all the videos, articles, etc. Say to copy it to the Plugins Folder of Photoshop. Did that and relaunched Photoshop 2026 and I still cannot find it! Where is it?! How do I access my plugins I purchased?! This is extremely frustrating. Why does Adobe make this so hard?!

Greetings! I updated to PS 2022 this morning and inadvertently had the install process delete older versions of Photoshop. I have one particular plugin/extension that will only work with PS 2020 and I was just using that plugin yesterday - now I'm screwed. Is there a way to download PS 2020? I can't find one.  😞 Thank you, TIm

Is PS now scanning every image for Ai learning that is opened into the latest version? The loading time for an image has more than doubled in the latest update. My image sizes haven’t changed.
