I've been having this issue for a while now where from time to time photoshop takes about 5 minutes to open. Most of the time it's fine, however. Not only that but my photoshop just runs worse than I ever remember. I have a great computer so I shouldn't be having any issues. I've tried everything I can find online, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
When you press Ctrl+T and select the transform tool, the button at the top responsible for warping (it looks like an arc‑shaped grid) disappears. In the earlier version, it was present and simplified the process of finding the function. At the moment, there are only 2 ways to get warping: go to Edit > Transformation > Deformation in the top drop‑down panel, which is time‑consuming, or use the right‑click option. Photoshop beta version 28.0 and Photoshop regular version 27.11.0
In the beta version of photoshop 28.0, the selection of objects on the canvas by auto-selection stopped working. When trying to select an area, the layers located in the selection pixel area are not highlighted. After talking with support, we found out that this problem is missing in previous Beta versions, as well as in the regular version of Photoshop at the moment on 11/27/20. We came to the conclusion that this is not related to the problem of my personal nature (computer) The only way to select multiple layers now is to hold down Shift and click one by one, which greatly slows down the process. The error appears in all new projects created in this beta version.

Summary:When painting with the Brush tool, Photoshop's canvas redraw appears hard-capped at approximately 31–32 FPS, even on a 144Hz monitor with a high-end GPU that is barely utilized during the stroke. This does not happen in other applications (e.g., MS Paint) on the same machine, which render smoothly up to the monitor's full refresh rate.System specs:GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 (8GB VRAM) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600 (6 Cores, 3,5 GHz) Driver version: 591.86, CUDA 13.1 Monitor: 144Hz (confirmed set correctly in Windows Display settings) OS: Windows 11 Photoshop version: Adobe Photoshop 2026Steps to reproduce:Open any document (tested on both small ~1000x1000px and larger 2560x1440px canvases — file size does not affect the issue) Select the Brush tool (tested with standard round brushes, Smoothing set to 0%) Paint continuously on the canvas while monitoring FPS via MSI Afterburner / RivaTuner Statistics Server overlay Observed FPS stays around 31–32 FPS during active brush strokesWhat I
HiI use Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign for work, but one day this message came with error code 18000. Its done the same in InDesign and Photoshop. I have a stable internet access, I can go to Creative Cloud and open the apps from there, but the message is still there. When I uninstall the apps and install them again, it works, but the problems shows again the day after. I've tried uninstalling the whole of Adobe with Creative Clouud and install it again, but the problem is the same. Any ideas how to fix this?

Bonjour,Depuis la mise à jour de Photoshop vers la version 27.10, Photoshop se fige lorsque j’ajoute plusieurs photos dans un montage. Après environ 3 photos, la roue multicolore de macOS apparaît et Photoshop finit par indiquer « l’application ne répond pas ». Je suis alors obligée de forcer la fermeture de Photoshop.Configuration :– iMac avec puce Apple M4– macOS Tahoe 26.6.2, à jour– Rosetta installée et fonctionnelle– Photoshop 27.10J’ai effectué plusieurs essais :– réinitialisation des préférences de Photoshop ;– désactivation du processeur graphique ;– redémarrage de Photoshop et de l’iMac.Le problème persistait toujours avec Photoshop 27.10.J’ai ensuite désinstallé la version 27.10 et réinstallé Photoshop 27.9.1. Depuis le retour à la version 27.9.1, le même montage avec les mêmes photos fonctionne normalement et Photoshop ne se fige plus.Le problème semble donc être lié à la mise à jour Photoshop 27.10 sur iMac Apple M4.Merci de transmettre ce signalement à l’équipe Photoshop a
The title say it all.
The PS 27.11.0 update hid the Contiguous checkbox. Now to see whether it’s checked or not, one has to click on the three dots in the Options bar. I am constantly using the Contiguous function, and this is a time-consuming and frustrating change. How can I make the Contiguous check-box always visible?

Im Anfang lies sich Photoshop nicht mehr öffnen. Nach den letzten Updates (Windows und Photoshop) lässt sich Photoshop öffnen, meldet aber beim Öffnen von Bilddateien einen Programmfehler.Da keine genaue Fehlermeldung existiert kann ich auch nicht sagen, ob Windows oder Photoshop den Fehler generiert. Ich nutze die neueste Windows 11 Pro Version mit allen aktuellen Patches und Photoshop 27.10.0
I have a regular Adobe Creative Cloud plan. The oldest Photoshop version currently available through Creative Cloud is the 2025 version.I have a 2019 MacBook Pro and an older iMac, both still very powerful and perfectly suitable for professional work. For quite some time now, however, it has been nearly impossible to work on large projects because the versions released over the past two years are full of bugs and suffer from serious lag across almost every tool.I have just contacted Adobe Customer Support, and they confirmed that, according to Adobe's policy, the oldest version they can provide is Photoshop 2025. Unfortunately, this does not solve the problem at all.I rely on Adobe for my work as a professional illustrator, but I simply cannot work properly if the tools do not function as they should. Considering how much I pay for my subscription, I expect to be able to access a version of the software I am paying for that is actually usable on my machines.I would also genuinely like
After upgrading to macOS 27, Photoshop's brush/tool cursor frequently reverts to the default macOS arrow when I move the pointer or drag on the canvas. It affects both a Wacom/Cintiq pen and an ordinary mouse, and also reproduces in a new blank RGB/8 document. Losing the brush outline interferes with drawing.ENVIRONMENT• MacBook Air, Apple M5, 24 GB RAM• macOS 27.0, build 26A428• Photoshop 27.9.1, build 20260803.r.1, native arm64; also occurred in 27.10.0 before downgrading• Wacom DTK246: main display, 2560 × 1440 at 60 Hz, scale 1• Dell U2725QE: extended display, logical 2560 × 1440 at 120 Hz; Photoshop reports 5120 × 2880 backing resolution, scale 2OBSERVED REPRODUCTION1.

Hi everyone !I'm using Adobe Photoshop 2026 through an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription on a new 16-inch MacBook Pro with an M5 Pro chip and 24 GB RAM.I've been experiencing a strange issue where a small numerical overlay occasionally appears over my image and gets stuck on the screen.This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, the overlay won't disappear, and I have to restart Photoshop to get rid of it.The overlay displays the following text (translated from Norwegian):"Minimum: 1.00, Maximum: 300000.00"I've attached here a screenshot taken when this happened on April 3, 2026.I've never experienced this particular behavior on my previous MacBook Pro (2019, Intel-based), or on the MacBook Pro M1 (2020) I'm currently using as a loaner.I'm not assuming this is a hardware problem. I'm simply trying to understand what happened and whether it might be a known Photoshop issue.A few questions: Does anyone recognize this particular numerical overlay and know which Photoshop function
This is a screenshot of the circle I'm referring to. It was changing over time, sort of pulsating. The screenshot is of a portion of the screen showing my browser window. This blue circle stayed in front of any screen I switched to, until I switched to Photoshop. Then it disappears. That leads me to believe it's Adobe software doing it. I'm using a 16" M4 Macbook Pro. Searching the internet for explanations I see other Adobe products are implicated in this same issue.What is the animated icon meant to represent? How can I prevent it in the future? I really don't know what I did to have triggered it. Hovering over it and clicking it did nothing. So it's a useless feature. Worse than that, it's an annoyance, since it encumberts other applications.
I have been using the remove tool for general clean up for months now. But since the update for PS CC 2026 it is borderline unusuable. I haven’t read much about it on here, so I though I’d ask if this is an actual but or a simple case of “ens***ification. Ever since the 2026 update I can no longer replace details in snow or sand textures for example because the resulting textures either rendered by the AI or in Photoshop itself do no longer look like the neighbouring textures but patchy, blurry and simply unusable. It doesn’t matter whether I set AI to auto, on or off. Results look like from 2010’s patch tool basically, neither texture, nor color or luminosity match the general area. On top of that for about two months now the tool has become incredibly slow for whatever reason and since I do have a 300mbit fiber conection I doubt it is the internet needed for the transfer of the image data as has been hinted at here on the forums recently.I then tried to simply mark the areas I would
The dialog box does not appear when the pulldown menu is used to select ‘save’ or ‘save as’. Using the keyboard shortcut gives the same results on a new document to be saved but an existing document is saved and the program does not close. I tried several fixes proposed by various sources but the result is the same. Everything works as it supposed to when I reverted back to version 27.10. I’m using Windows 11 version 25H2
We use a lot of action sets for work and I need to move them between computers. Previously, when i would record a script or a Guide Layout in a PS action, as long as i put them in /Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2026/Presets/Guides, they would only display the name and not the exact path. This meant when I updated PS versions, the guides and scripts would relink seamlessly. This is no longer the case. Now my options are to re-record opening the script, load the preset, make one small change, then change it back, then press OK. This records the values but i lose the visual name of the custom guide showing in my action set. ALTERNATIVELY, i have to re-record the guide to the newest version location (which means i’d have to do that each time i update). Storing the guides outside of that location opens up a can of worms for when i move these action sets to another computer. Anyone have tips? Is this a bug?
