Photoshop

I am using Photoshop 2024 (v25.11) under macOS 13.6.9 on an Intel iMac with an AMD Graphics Card. The clouds filter is producing unexpected results and error messages. I can also duplicate this error on a Windows 11 system running the same version of Photoshop. Something has changed in the lastest release of the Clouds filter that comes with Photoshop 2024 (aka v25.x). I have a number of Photoshop actions which rely on the Clouds filter and they have all been failing with a message saying: "Could not complete the command because the selected area is empty." They ran without issue under previous versions of Photoshop (2023, 2022, 2021 all tested recently) On a lark, I decided to try copying the 2023 version of the Clouds filter and replacing the newer one that came with Photoshop 2024. Much to my amazement, it worked perfectly and all the actions that relied on that filter are working again. Can anybody enighten me as to what changed in the update

While working on a scanned photograph as a layered TIFF in Photoshop, a large purple band suddenly appeared on the file. Hiding/showing layers does nothing to remove it--only when I hide the Camera Raw Filter layer does it change, but the band just becomes larger. Is this a file corruption or something else? Incredibly frustrating as I've been working on this image for a while, and I can't find a way to remove it. Using Photoshop 2024 in Sonoma 14.6.1.

There have been many issues when using a drawing tablet with Adobe applications on older iMacs that have recently been updated to the new Sonoma OS.  When the drawing tablet is already in use and connected, many Adobe applications do not always register that the device is connected. Photoshop will allow the stylist to be used but suddenly begin to lag, as if a user has two different mouses attempting to be used simultaneously. This is most noticeable when using the Stamped and Healing Brush Tools. The user can correct the issue by restarting Photoshop or refreshing the drawing tablet by opening up the actual tablet software to re-establish a connection. If lagging continues within secondary tool windows, such as Camera RAW, it may cause Photoshop to freeze. Photoshop must be Forced to Quit and repeat the steps to correct the issue. This lagging and application freeze can occur multiple times within a single session after the start of screen savors and after the computer

Hi! I've used droplets for many years and rely on them for work. For awhile now I've been getting the "Droplet couldn't communicate with Photoshop" error. I believe this started in September 2023 after the "upgrade" to Photoshop 25.0. I tried reinstalling fresh, and tried setting everything to "run as administrator" as per a past discussion thread, unfortunately neither solution is workable.The fix seems to be that I have to have version 24.7.4 installed on my Dell PC running Windows 11 Pro. When I have 24.7.4 AND 25.11 installed, droplets will run on 25.11. As of 25.11, I no longer have to even open 24.7.4. But if I REMOVE 24.7.4, droplets stop working. They begin working again immediately after I reinstall 24.7.4, even without opening the program. To me this means there's a crucial file or bit of code missing in 25.11 and you just need to migrate it over. Please compare the two versions and figure out which file or permission the presence of 24.7.4 allows, as it's annoying to have tw

The exposure adjustment layer produces incorrect results when the image has a linear (gamma 1.0) color profile. The effect of adjusting exposure or gamma does not match the menu/adjustments/exposure or the adjustment layer used in 32 bit mode. A gamma adjustment:The result with the adjustment layer has an un-even jump in the gradient:

A layer is moved while painting with brush, if while the paint stroke is being drawn I press Ctrl key (on Windows). Note, that I never have Ctrl pressed while clicking (and/or holding) the mouse to switch to the move tool. Probably the keyboard modifier key event is processed out of order, or the brush stroke code tests for Ctrl being pressed in real time, not at the time the stroke was scheduled. Steps to reproduce:1. Create a big RGB, 16-bit document (4240x6059), no background, one empty layer2. Create a new layer, paint on something to notice layer shifts (for example the text "test")3. Duplicate that layer4. Set soft brush, size 2375, spacing 1% so that painting the stroke takes some time5. Quickly draw several long strokes using mouse or tablet, to put them in a queue6. While the stroke is being printed, let go of the mouse, press & hold Ctrl on the keyboard.7. Observe: subsequent queued paint strokes are executed as Move commands (bug)8. Repeat the above, but without hol

Seems like my PSD-File just turned black. I wanted to open my drawing and continue after bout 40hours of progress, and now the file just contains one layer - and its black!I don't know what to do or how to fix it. Already sent the file to a friend to check if its my PC that has to get fixed, but the file seems to be destroyed. Any help?

Hi,I'm using Photoshop 25.11.0 and noticed that since the update, when I save an image it sometimes does not save the original  file name but saves it by the name of my son from all things. I have no idea where it is pulling this info up from and it's always the same name when it does this. It's happened about half a dozen times and I'm not sure whether it happens as  'Save' or 'Save As', but every once in awhile it does this. It seems to occur when it's being saved as a .psd file.  Anything I can do to clear this up?Thank you.

While working on locked Background, when i use move tool the locked layer messages showing as well as the ruler guide is freezes on screen when i drag multiple times, the multiple guides creating and freezing on screen and they are not going until i close photoshop. iam using photoshop stable version 25.11 and Beta version the problem occuring in both versions please help

I recently purchased a new license and installed the latest version of the software. However, I've encountered a bug with the transformation controls. They sometimes work when clicked, but other times they don't respond at all. Additionally, I'm unable to clear the history of the transformation controls, no matter what I try. The screen fills with lines, and previously, when I clicked on a single layer, only that layer would show the transformation controls. Now, everything is outlined, and these lines cannot be removed.  

This shifted pixel effect is only happening in the middle of the screen. If I drag the line a litte above or below, it starts looking normal again. It's not my monitor's issue, both Cs6 and krita works fine. 

Every time i want to Generate on a Image, the loading is stuck until i cancel it. However, on colored backrounds (included white and black), it works.

The "Make Layer Visibility Changes Undoable" option in the History panel options no longer works in Photoshop 2024 and the in the current Beta.So you can't do multiple undos without affecting the layer opacity values. Mac os Sonoma.

Help! None of my quick selection brushes: patch tool, Quick selection, any of my brush tools, blemish removal etc will work. I'm not sure what to do to fix it. I would really appreciate any help to fix this issue! I need to complete editing a current project asap! TIA!

I have googled every possible variation of this problem and tried every fix for this problem, none of them worked. I have tried reinstalling photoshop, deleting everything even remotely related to photohop in the appdata, deleting custom fonts, restarting the computer, updating graphics and computer, and holding every possible combination of alt, ctrl and shift while trying to launch in administrator mode. The result is always the same. It opens the splash image, gets to loading preferences or brushes, spikes RAM usage to every last byte of RAM I have, freezes the computer, then crashes.   And no i'm not running it on a potato i'm running it on an Alienware Aurora 4090, it should have more than enough power to handle this and Photoshop ran perfectly fine for months. Then just today it crashed and has never started up again.Photoshop version 25.11   Help.

Hello, after a lot of wasted time, I’ve come to learn that many people have been having issues with ICC profiles being applied to prints for years. Specifically, it seems that unless you allow printers to handle color management and ICC profile application through the MacOS printer function, ICC profiles are completely broken. Making it impossible to allow Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One, etc to manage colors while printing. Is there a known work around for this? It seems this has been an issue since at least Big Sur. Will this ever be fixed? Thanks

Pessoal, para salvar a imagem está demorando muito? Pois aqui no meu está um demora gigante, demora mais para salvar do que para editar.Queria saber se é só comigo.

meu notebook tem uma rtx 4050 , 24 ram , e ssd de 1,5 t , porque Photoshop ainda trava ?? 

My wacom tablet works in photoshop. But every few minutes it will "stop" working. Instead of being able to brush as normal, it simply leaves a dot in the spot where I touched down my pen when trying to brush. It does this very randomly. To reset this behaviour I can click on the touchpad of my laptop (Razorblade, 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13800H 2.50 GHz13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13800H 2.50 GHz, 32.0 GB RAM) and the pen will work as normal as again.It's infuriating. It disrupts my workflow for so many times a day. But I can still work. I've checked the drivers of wacom. I've worked on older and newer and the newest drivers. I've checked the "Pen & windows ink", and turned all options off so it is not interfering with my wacom tablet.The problem continues to exist. Please help. I'm turning insane here.

Hello, I am trying to access the cloud filter under render but it wont allow me to click it. How can I fix this. My file properties are RBG 8 bit, black background, 150 pix/inch

As described in title, I have multiple adjustment layers or Fill Layers and I change their mask's feather in Properties palette.At 100% zoom, everything's ok. At any other zoom, instead of the real aspect of the masks, I see boxes. If I turn back to 0 feather, everything's ok.I know that it's only a matter of view, the masks are ok, but when I work, as anyone else I zoom back and forth a million times and it's horrible to see your masks as a box. For example, being my image very big, I often use Fit on screen but I see all these boxes instead of my image.It doesn't happen with only one mask: in m y project I have 8 Fill layers whom I changed feather in Properties.Thanks for your suggestions. I can post images to show the issue.Lorenzo
