Photoshop

Issue: Under specific conditions, Photoshop causes the cursor in other apps to switch to the default arrow cursor or to flicker between the correct cursor and the arrow cursor. Photoshop version: 26.1.0 20241113.r.121 158e617 arm64 OS: macOS 14.7.2 I apologize in advance. This one is complicated, and was difficult to track down.It occurs on all my systems, including a completely clean installation of macOS and Photoshop, and has been present in many versions of Photoshop, over quite a few years.   Steps to reproduce:(See below for Definitions.)1. Close Photoshop if it is already running.2. Start Photoshop.3. Drag a document from the Finder into the Photoshop window.4. Document opens in Photoshop.5. If the currently selected tool is a Brush-Based Tool and the brush-shaped cursor is visible, the Cursor Problem will occur in other apps.6. If the currently selected tool is a Non-Brush Tool, switch to a Brush-Based Tool. As long as the brush-shaped cursor has appeared once (over an edi

I'm having a problem opening existing PS files on PS 2021. When I try to open them PS opens and has the file title showning on the tab and the file image displayed in the Navigator window. But the file does not display on the work area/artboard. I'm on Big Sur, could this be the problem.

Is there any way to remove the image preview in the resize dialog?

Hi, I'm trying to create a script for Photoshop that  will convert layered tiff files to png files with transparency.I created this script, but despite having transparency = true in the save options, the pngs are saved without transparency. They are also converted to sRGB when I want the original profile to be preserved and embedded.  #target photoshop app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO; function convertTIFtoPNG() { var inputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select the folder containing TIFF images"); if (!inputFolder) return; // Exit if no folder is selected var outputFolder = new Folder(inputFolder + "/PNG"); if (!outputFolder.exists) outputFolder.create(); var tifFiles = inputFolder.getFiles("*.tif"); if (tifFiles.length === 0) { alert("No TIFF files found in the selected folder."); return; } for (var i = 0; i < tifFiles.length; i++) { var file = tifFiles[i]; if (file instanceof File) {

I work in CMYK mode creating comics and my color swatches all have 0% black. When I try to do a gradient, say from 30% magenta to 40% cyan the  gradient tool is adding 4% black to the blend. I have two computers, both running latest versions, but it is only happening on one. I can't see any difference in settings so am baffled as to why this is happerning. In researching this, I noticed someone had the same issue 3 yeras ago but the community didn;' have an answer then ...  Hopefully, better luck this time! Any ideas? Thanks!

I noticed that Photoshop has received another update, and the icons have been rearranged. Previously, the Lasso tool was located in the top left corner. I used to select the Lasso tool, outline some jeans to remove wrinkles, apply Generative AI, and achieve great results quickly.However, I have now spent an hour searching for this tool.Am I missing something? I found the Magnetic Lasso tool, but not the one I was using just eight hours ago.If anyone knows where to find it, please let me know. Thank you.

I purchased a perpetual license for  CS6 Design and Web Prem in 2012. No doubt over the years I changed PCs, scrapped older ones and reinstalled on replacements. Today I downloaded the suite from my account on Adobe and activated Acrobat. Photoshop however proved impossible to activate (too many computers error message). Adobe support says I am SOL. How can I possibly deactivate on my defunct and scrapped computers? Can Adobe do this? Any help appreciated...

Le tampon duplicateur de mon Adobe Photoshop 2025 ne fonctionne plus sur mon iMac

While erasing on photoshop the image becomes distorted on its own, eg. having little squares missing out of the middle of the image? and then having grey blocks over the image as if it is lagging even though it has stayed on the same image. Would love some help! Thanks

I've encountered a technical problem, with the new update, where I am unable to save files to the Adobe cloud. Whenever I click on the "save as" option it directs me to option to save it locally. The button for "save to cloud documents" is still there but I cannot click on it. Thank you in advance for all the help.

I'm using version 26.4 and suddenly I found a scary bug .I opened abc.jpg and recorded an action: img (change 350dpi, 190mm width, press Ctrl+S again, save as abc.jpg, then close)Next I perform the img action on 123.jpg and I realize that I get a picture named abc.jpg but the contents are from 123.jpg.It's so scary, do I have to save as, instead of just tiles.The problem used to be that recorded actions would always be saved to the directory where the action was originally recorded (e.g. D:\a\abc.jpg), and would not be updated to the directory of the current picture (not to D:\b\123.jpg). This problem has not been solved yet, but today I saw another big bug.My god, what a sin, scared the baby to death.

hi there, i have tried many ways to remove the background of this file, as you can see it doesn't work properly, its removing some parts that it shouldn't. any help is appreciated, thanks.

my liquify filter isn't working due to disk problem , what's that , and how can I fix it ?my twirl and zigzag plus the pinch tools I can't find the reason why I can't active them , I tried everything but I can't solve it is it my laptop !

The objective of this script is to automate my linking, saving, exporting process. Images included. I have a main-image.psd from which I would like to export 3 different images. On this main-image.psd file contains “hat-link,” a linked layer that contains 3 different layers, A, B, and C. Whatever I save in hat-link.psd will populate on main-image.psd.  I don’t mind my current method which is “save layer A in hat-link.psd, return to main-image.psd, export,” then repeat that with layers B, and C. The problem with this method is that it's time consuming because my linked file has around 30 layers, not 3. So far I've been saving and exporting manually. Is there a script I could write that says “save layer A in hat-link.psd, return to main-image.psd, export, save layer B in hat-link.psd, return to main-image.psd, export; save layer C in hat-link.psd, return to main-image.psd, export" without doing this manually?

Estuve editando un archivo en Photoshop para Windows, sin querer toqué el botón de Cerrar y por error elegí guardar los cambios del archivo sobre el que estaba trabajando, pero en realidad no quería hacerlo. Básicamente pisé mi archivo con cambios que no debían guardarse, sino descartarse.¿Hay manera de recuperar una versión anterior de ese archivo? Ya que si lo abro otra vez, el Historial 

Hi there! I've been alternating between two files (File A & File B) as they have the same content but File B requires me to only use one 16x9 image with a logo on top.My usual pathway is that I would copy the artboard from File A and then paste the artboard onto File B, and then the logo.I have no problems until yesterday, when I would paste the artboard from File A into File B, ONLY the text wouldn't show up. It is there but it's invisible.When I highlight the text, it's there but during my export, it cannot be seen.When I click on the type to move them, the transform box is very far away but the text is in within the artboard.

HelloI hope you can help .. I installed the new photoshop today (Mar 4th, 2025), on my pc, and accidently deleted the core tools when I was creating a new workspace.I uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop but the core tools did not come back. I spoke with an agent and they did not know how to fix this.  it was great for a moment to have access to all the lr functions such as adaptive color at myfingertips in ps <sigh> thank you
