I have reached a breaking point with Adobe software. It is now using so much memory any time that any time I launch an application I can barely get any work done at all. The apps are slow, they lag, they stop responding. I can’t have more than one Adobe app open at a time.Even now, with InDesign sitting idle it is using 2.09 GB. And Photoshop with a file open that is 181 mb is using over 30 GB!!This started when I upgraded to Tahoe. The memory problems and slow downs were unbelieveble so I switched back to Sequoia. That seemed to ersolve the problem for a short while but it is now worse than it has ever been.Please let me know what kind f info you need from me to help with this issue. I’m posting some screen shots that might or might not be helpful--I’m just guessing because I don’t know.Please help!
Hello everyone,I am new to the Adobe community and I have recently started exploring Lightroom for my travel photography projects. I usually shoot a mix of city and nature scenes, but I often struggle to maintain consistency in tones and lighting across different environments.I have tried using presets and manual adjustments, but sometimes the results look flat or unnatural. I am particularly interested in learning how other photographers manage color balance and lighting when editing travel photos that include both bright outdoor shots and low-light indoor images.What techniques or workflow adjustments have helped you create a balanced and natural look in your travel edits?I am looking forward to learning from your experiences and improving my editing process through your advice.

Selection Brush tool doesn't work on grayscale pages, didn’t tried all the other modes, but I’m sure it doesn’t work on grayscale pages.The history shows I used the Selection Brush tool, but no selection is made at all, all other selection ways works just fine, including quick mask mode.
Reposting this bug because the first post has been merged with another unrelated bug report. https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-bugs/p-brush-outline-circle-disappearing-when-working-with-masks/idi-p/12570028/page/4#comments ) : since Photoshop 24.1, the brush cursor is flickering as if there is some lag/buffer when I'm drawing. Usually when i draw small lines rapidly (like hatchings, to give you the idea). The usual cursor of the brush shape disappears during one 10th of second or 1 second and turns to the normal white arrow mouse cursor. I signal this bug because it doesn't seem to happen on Photoshop 23.5.3 that i have also installed on my computer.Both versions are up to date and I checked the same performance settings on both.I'm on Windows 11 and my graphic card is an NVIDIA Geforce RTX 3070.It looks like that (not my video but it looks exactly like this bug) : https://www.reddit.com/r/wacom/comments/fxryv6/brush_or_other_brushlike_tool_changing_to_cursor/Thi
In Photoshop, I can only zoom in using the touchpad if I hold down the alt key. If I do the gesture without the alt key, the image only moves left or right. If I hold down the alt key, the "actual" gesture (swiping in one direction with two fingers) also zooms. Is there a way to set the touchpad gestures so that the image only moves when you swipe in one direction with two fingers and the image zooms in when you zoom in with your fingers on the touchpad without pressing the alt key for any gesture?In the browser or other applications, zooming in works even without holding down the alt key.Win 11Ps-version: 25.12
After several months of correct operation, the program began to spontaneously close. Photoshop 2026 (versions 27.3.1.4 and others), the application consistently shuts down about 40 seconds after launch. This happens regardless of user activity: opening a document, navigating settings, or staying on the Home Screen. The issue reproduces on different computers with different hardware, with updated GPU drivers and reset Photoshop preferences.Steps to Reproduce: Launch Photoshop 2026 (version 27.3.1.4). Wait approximately 40 seconds. The application closes automatically without warning.Windows Event Viewer Log:Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 27.3.1.4, time stamp: 0x697d544e Faulting module name: Photoshop.exe, version: 27.3.1.4, time stamp: 0x697d544e Exception code: 0xc00000fd Fault offset: 0x000000000102b6eb Faulting process id: 0x3970 Faulting application start time: 0x1DD2653E2BA545D Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2026\Photoshop.

My entire computer consistently crashes when I try to use “Select and mask”, Some of my photoshop files have even been corrupted if the file I tried to mask was in them. Im not sure what has been causing this. I’ve tried to update my drivers, my gpu, cleared my cache, allocated more RAM space for photoshop to use, and nothing seems to work. Any guesses as to what could be causing this? I am not extremely savvy when It comes to hardware optimization, but I couldn’t find any similar issues online to help fix this problem.
Issue: Photoshop version: 27.3.1 Release OS: Tahoe 26.3 (25D125)Steps to reproduce:Image > Mode > Duotone… Change Type to Monotone Attempt to name Ink 1 anything with the letter “P” in it You will not be able to type the letter “P” because it will instead toggle the “Preview” box in the Duotone Options panel on and off Expected result: Being able to name an Ink color with words that have the letter “P” in themActual result: Typing the letter “P” toggles Preview on / off
Photoshop 2026 will not open any JPEG files. I receive a message that says “Could not open “file name” because the file was not found.” Yes, the files are there and are uncorrupted– Preview and other other apps have no problem with the JPEGs. It does not matter if the files are local, on a drive, or wherever. Also, photoshop has no issue opening PNGs, PSDs, or really any other normals file formats. I recently updated, reinstalled, restarted, and deleted photoshop 2025 from my machine to try to remedy the problem. I’m working on an iMac 2020 with Sequoia 15.7.3As a work around, I’ve been opening the JPGs in Preview and copying and pasting them into a Photoshop file, but I’d prefer a real fix over this method.
I'm experiencing an issue with Photoshop web version. When I opening the Photoshop web version, the interface shows only a white screen with all buttons grayed out and unclickable. Problem persists across different monitors and even when switching to another PC. Does anyone know how to fix it? Thank you for any info.

I updated Photoshop 2025 yesterday which apparently came with a camera raw update. The denoise in camera raw stops after 15-25 percent then does not reactivate on the raw file when selected.
Hi everyone,I’m investigating a compatibility issue affecting my Photoshop plugin, Lipika.Users reported receiving “Compatible app required” in Creative Cloud Desktop even when their installed Photoshop version appears to meet the declared requirements.To address this, I republished the plugin and reduced the minimum supported version:• Previous minimum version: Photoshop 24.2.0+• Updated minimum version: Photoshop 24.0.0+Goal: Support Photoshop 24.0.0 and newer (including latest releases).However, the issue still persists.Current environment:• Plugin: Lipika (latest published version)• Installed Photoshop: 27.4.0 Release• Manifest host.minVersion: 24.0.0• Creative Cloud Desktop still shows “Compatible app required” and suggests installing a newer Photoshop version.I’ve attached:• Compatibility error screenshot• Installed Photoshop version screenshot• Manifest configuration screenshotQuestions: Does Creative Cloud Desktop cache compatibility data after publishing updates?

When I am using Adobe Photoshop on the web, the color wheel is always off screen with no way to center it. This makes choosing anything from the right side of the color wheel impossible. Ive tried minimizing my screen or dragging it, but its locked in one fixed part of the screen and wont move. The first color circle is cut off slightly, making easier to navigate but the second circle is always cut off. As you can see I can only access cool colors, the rest cant even be scrolled to. PLEASE, fix this issue. I love the web version of Adobe for its quickness, but this is kinda killing the need to use it. It isnt just with Duotone but basically any effect where you can change the color of the effect.
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

I’m using Edit-Stroke function, but in latest updates there is a bug that doesnt stroke with right selected color.I set stroke width, then I set stroke color, then I hit OK, but stroke has color that was prevously selected before change. Then I have to go one step back and try to Stroke again, then it usualy works well.
When selecting the Crop Tool while a selection is active, Photoshop usually sets the crop area to the selected area by default. Now, this no longer works.
Photoshop v27.9 auto updated but got stuck and so I cancelled it and now it is stuck cancelled. No way to reset or reinstall photoshop app on desktop (mac).
In the latest Camera Raw update, it stopped accessing graphics acceleration, and I can't activate it.My setup:Windows 11NVidia RTX 5070 Ti 16 GBI've tried absolutely everything: cleaning the card driver and reinstalling it, adding .old to the folders, resetting the graphics card, etc., and finally contacting Adobe technical support... who started by saying that the card was "old" and not suitable for Camera Raw... Adobe, if that's the case, please indicate it on your website, because supposedly my card is suitable (and if it isn't, few people will be able to continue using Adobe products). Lightroom handles everything without a problem, and the other programs that require GPU resources do too (Da Vinci, Topaz, etc.). After saying this, the card is suitable; the problem is with Windows. I honestly don't think so; it seems like a bug in Camera Raw. That's the only thing that has problems. I don't know, maybe it's a credentials issue or something.I'm mentioning this because I think it's a
