Photoshop

Since the last update (26.10.0) Photoshop is very reluctant to start on Windows 11, it takes three or four tries to get the splash screen to show up. Also "open with Photoshop" is very hit and miss in this version, often nothing at all happens and this also takes multiple tries until it works if you are lucky.

GPU is Nvidia RTX 4000 Quadro with current driverHave reset Photoshop preferences, reset toolbar, processing preferences to stable, Select object option set to cloud No people option on the options bar. Side note, people selection in LRC works fine.    

Bueno el problema es que a veces al tiempo de usar Photoshop mi pc empieza a ponerse muy lento cuando Photoshop está abierto, y además en si el mismo Photoshop a veces es casi imposible de usar porque solo para reescalar una capa se pega, esto no debería de pasar ya que no es problema de potencia de pc, este es mi hardware:CPU: Ryzen 9 5900XGPU: RTX 3070 TI Aorus MasterRAM: 32GB 3200mhzSSD: 2TB Nvme m.2SO: Win11 Ya intenté depurar caché, borrar archivos temporales pero el problema de rendimiento en Photoshop persiste, cada que lo abro todo mi pc se relentiza Adjunto un print en donde se ve mi configuración de rendimiento, está por defecto como me vino el programa instalado Por si me preguntan, sí, está actualizado el Photoshop a la última versión oficial desde el Creative CouldTampoco tengo updates pendientes del Windows Update, y mi gráfica está con el último driver actualizado

Hello everyone!!! im working on creating a postage stamp is PS and one step calls for creating a work path then applying a circular brush to the path to get the perforated edge of a stamp.  To achieve this the tutorial calls for making the work path, selecting the brush, then applying it and VOILA!! The effect. But.....the "brushes" in my brush menu (Win 11, F5) are all white and this effect seems to add to the work path (making the edge bulge out) instead of it subtracting from the edge. Image of the brush menu and the bulged effect below. I'll add the tutorial link. my question - what's wrong? Why are the "brushes" white and I'm getting the additive effect?much appreciated!! I did the reset under the setting for brushes but......uggh!!!! tutorial (not meant to be "advertising ")https://youtu.be/FznXiKhxoUw?si=QDyv4e2reNrbdOvy image 

Hi does anynone know how I can make the barcode out of the shape of the US show using a clipping mask?

Hi,Asking for a friend (> English is a problem > Dutch).Windows 11, with Bridge and Photoshop installed and fully up to date.After opening a jpeg for the second time in Photoshop (via Bridge or not via Bridge) he has a weird toolbar on the left with dots (the tools are there but not showing) and the masking tool selected.Opening a RAW file via Bridge to Camera RAW and then open it in Photoshop gives no problem with the toolbar.What we did to solve it:*Ctrl+Alt+Shift as we launched Photoshop to reset your preferences to their defaults.  (did the same with Bridge, just in case).* Created a new workspace with the toolbar intact (but it does not show up after opening jpeg for the second time in Photoshop.* Reset the settings of the toolbar to its default (in the preferences.) We Googled but did not find a solution.  Any Ideas what could be the problem or how to solve this. I suspect a bug... Best regardsReina

I want to draw a temporary grid line by clicking at two different places in the image.Have searched ‘everywhere’ after a answers to this simple question. Hope someone here can help me with this.

Hey Photoshop users! Have you encountered the dreaded “Scratch Disk Full” error? It can seriously slow down or even crash your workflow. I’ve compiled a few tips to fix it:✅ Free Up Space – Delete unnecessary files to clear storage. ✅ Change Scratch Disk Location – Go to Edit > Preferences > Scratch Disks and select a drive with more space. ✅ Clear Cache Files – Use Edit > Purge > All to remove temporary data. ✅ Limit History States – Reducing undo steps in Preferences > Performance can free up memory. ✅ Upgrade to SSD – If possible, an SSD dramatically speeds up scratch disk usage. Have you found other solutions that work for you? Drop your thoughts below!

Hi, A big thank you to all who took part in our previous 'Finest Cut' challenge. Who would have thought that so many ideas could start with a pizza cutter.   This week we start outdoors. This is the Saltburn Cliff Lift which is a funicular railway on leading down to the promenade and pier, in Saltburn on the north east coast of England. Constructed in the 1880s, it has been updated several times, but is still powered by water. The tank underneath the upper car is filled with water and when it is heavier than the car at the bottom it descends and pulls the lower car up, all controlled by the brakeman in the wheelhouse. At the bottom the tank empties and the upper car is filled. The water is pumped back to the top.So that is the scene - what can you do to bring it to life? When you post your response can you add just a few words on how you went about it. It may help others see the potential of different approaches, software, and tools to such a challenge. The “rules”: Use the

Copy and pasting images from photoshop to illustrator generates a white background around your asset.    This only happens on a windows machine. Mac systems work just fine.    Copying from illustrator to photoshop works just fine as well. On both windows and mac.    Copying a layer from photoshop to any other programs also produces the white background on a windows system, but not a mac. I tested this by copying layer assets into a google-slides presentation. On mac, it works just fine. I can copy assets from photoshop to slides without issues and with a transparent background.    On windows, it always produces the white background. I believe this is a bug, but it has been an issue for a while.      [Actions and Scripting tag removed by moderator since neither are referenced here]      

On a Mac M series running Photoshop 24.7.1.  Just so there isn't confusion on what panel I'm refering too.Inside the Layers panel, lets say I have 3 layers. Bottom later is base BKG, middle layer is a icon, top layer is a text layer. If I OPT+Click any layer the canvas zooms up - scales up to fit the contents of that layer to screen.  Q: can anyone tell me how to disable?(There's enough going on in the world that is shortening my life - please help 🙂

Hello all! So I need this logo to be white on the inside with no background, and I'm just wondering the easiest way to go about it. I've tried googling, etc.... so please, anything would be helpful!

I just update the photoshop to version 26, and i face the liquify error againI try to remove all preference, restore to default, uninstall and reinstall again still the same Hi Adobe Team, can help? Last time version 24 already have this issue, now update to versio 26 have this issue againAnd now this error unable to solvedReally need your help to sole this bug, my job always need to rely on Liquify commandPlease help, please T.T

For the past several months I've had some strange issues with Photoshop, and no updates to it or Windows have fixed it. These included:Unable to export any other way than the "Export for Web (Legacy)" option. The whole program crashing when trying to access neural filters (no error message, just crash).Just a blank page with no notifications, or create new document options in the middle of the screen when first launch the app.To test I created a new Windows account on the PC, and there Photoshp ran without any issue, however on my main account, also an admin account, I have all those issues. Any idea on what's going on? I am running the latest version of both Photoshp 26.9 and Windows 11. Reinstalling Photoshop and the whole Creative Cloud Suite didn't help either. 

Since the recent update or one before that I can't just "save" images I open to edit.When I work in Indesign I need to work on the images I use. I always open them from ID to PS and then edit what I need (colours, shrapness,..). I then have actions saved for "convert to CMYK" ,... and at the end "Save and exit" to preserve the link in ID. But now I can't just "save" images as I get an error saying that the infomration can't be preserved and forces me to "save as" This brakes the whole workflow with ID. Any workaround? 

When exporting through "export as" scaled sizes can't handle smart object with strokes and lines. The result is way too thick strokes.  

When I use big and bold fonts (font size bigger than 150) Photoshop keeps rounding the edges. It's only happening in PS, it looks normal in Illustrator or AfterEffects. (see attached image)I have checked all the Character settings, no FauxFont activated, no layer effect.Is there a way around? Thank you 🙂 

When the previous version of Photoshop was released, it had what I presume was a fairly universal bug, in that whenever I opened InDesign or Illustrator, they reported something along the lines of there being missing files required by Photoshop. It irked me so much, in the end I retrograded to the previous version. It's been a few months now, so I thought it would be the right time to upgrade, especially as the feature count has increased considerably. And yet here I am now, using InDesign, and I have selected a link to edit in Photoshop. For the last 20 minutes, an alert saying "Verifying Adobe Photoshop 2025.app" has been displayed. The only other applications I have open are InDesign, Safari, and Mail. This is *really* winding me up. This subscription is not cheap these days; I even question its full value. I don't need stuff like this holding up my production processes. Mac Mini M2 Pro. Any ideas?

While photoshop is open, clicking on the title bar will instantly toggle the maximize/resize button while using a tablet pen. I am using windows 11. This is reproducable by maximizing the window, creating a new canvas, clicking anywhere on the canvas with your pen, then clicking on the title bar. The window will instantly go into an unmaximized state. If you don't open a canvas first, it will also pop around when clicking the title bar, and I've seen it happen by clicking on other windows, then clicking back into photoshop by tapping the title bar once. I do not experience double click events or have the pen set to double click with any other action.

I'm having an issue where I have 2 Adobe Creative Cloud Accounts on the same computer. 1 for personal which includes Photoshop and Lightroom & 1 for work that includes Acrobat Pro. I've already been told I can't merge these accounts (which is frustrating) but now I'm having another issue. When I'm signed in to my personal account (with Lightroom/Photoshop) I can't access Adobe reader to open PDF files. Whenever I try to open a PDF file it asks me to pay for Acrobat Pro. I'm assuming it's because I already have it installed on my computer for my work log in. How do I get Adobe Reader on my personal account so I don't need to log out every time I want to view a PDF? This is very frustrating

Are you able to use guys in Photoshop iPad?

HiHas anyone installed and activated PS CS6 online recently with no problem?I am asking because Adobe consultants, in response to my case of the inability to activate PS CS6 online, replied that Adobe ceased support for CS6. The only option was to activate CS6 offline.I am asking this question to find people who have recently activated CS6 without any problems, which would indicate that this possibility still exists. RegardsRobert
