Photoshop

As mention in a post yesterday I have an issue with Photoshop not opening files from Lightroom, I get a Disk Error message every time. I’ve run First Aid on all my disks and all appear fine. None of the things I’ve tried, or have been suggested to me, have fixed this. The final option suggested is to uninstall and reinstall, however there lies another problem.As instructed I opened Adobe Desktop and went to my apps. The step is to click More Options with the three dots … but the only item in the list, as you’ll see from the screenshot, is to add the mobile app. No ‘uninstall’. The same is true for Lightroom.Is there another way around this or do I have to uninstall through my Finder - Applications? 

I am trying to add the latest version (27) to my Explorer context menu.  Right now it only shows older versions and I have to go the Creative Cloud to startup V27.   I tried to “Add a New Program” but I can’t find the executable in the normal places (C:\Program Files) -- just the older ones.  I am googling and finding only out-of-date info.I think all I need is the file location of the V27 executable unless there is an easier way.  My end goal is to make it so double clicking on the .jpg file puts me into the latest version rather an old one.  

Can anyone running Photoshop 2026 v27.8 (Release) on macOS please test the following?Create a new Action. Click Record. Choose File → Export → Export As... Stop recording.Does Photoshop record an "Export As" step in the Action, or is no step recorded?On my system, the recorder is active (red Record button is on), but no Action step is created for Export As.Other actions (for example, creating a new layer or placing an embedded file) record correctly, so the Actions recorder itself appears to be working.I'm simply trying to determine whether this is:expected behaviour, a limitation of Export As, a Photoshop 2026 v27.8 issue, or something specific to my installation.I'd appreciate it if anyone running the same version could try this quick test and report the result.

I have a legit Photoshop CS6. My PC got hit by a virus, the whole screen went white, and I had to reinstall Windows 10 and all my applications, but now CS6 is not letting me activate, tellling me that it is already in used in max allowed PC, which is not true. It was on my son's laptop and my same pc. My son has deactivated his. Now it is not activated on any any other device at all and I can't activate it on my same PC that it was on  a few days ago.

I’ve tried all the fixes that I could find online. I’ve reset my creative cloud, I’ve logged out and back in, I’ve used incognito mode, I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled, none of it changed anything. Absolutely no beta apps show on my creative cloud app and everything but Photoshop beta shows on web, even in incognito mode. I bought my own account through the student discount, there is absolutely no institution connected to my account. I don’t know if it changes anything but I have a MacBook. I’d greatly appreciate any help.this is what i see on the creative cloud applicationthis is what i see on the web version + in incognito mode 

I had a 7-day free trial of Photoshop in my personal Adobe account, and am being given the option to extend it another week or cancel it. When I try to do either, be it in my laptop or phone web browsers, I get an error message that pops up in red and says, “an error occurred. Please try again”. So now I’m going to be charged for a year of Adobe against my will because it won’t let me cancel. I would’ve liked another week on my trial but it gives the same error for that too.  

Since version 27.4 and continuing in 27.5 I’ve been experiencing image flickering when using the Curves adjustment. In version 27.4, the issue occurs in all Curves use cases. In 27.5, it appears primarily when applying Curves as a Smart Adjustment on a Smart Object. It is slightly improved, but still noticeable when using Curves as a standard adjustment layer.I’ve attached a video demonstrating the issue: The first example shows Curves applied as a Smart Adjustment on a Smart Object (strong flickering). The second shows a direct adjustment on a non-Smart Object layer (no issue). The third shows a standard adjustment layer (minor flickering still visible). The flickering is clearly visible, especially in the first case.Please look into this issue, as it makes precise adjustments very difficult.Thank you.example video:https://youtu.be/jbe6K-ORr44 

This is ridiculous why is there no email to contact. I am trying to cancel a free trial but they have already tried to take money from an empty bank account so it won’t let me and they keep on trying so I can’t add more money into it otherwise they’ll take it.

Sorry but this is ridiculous why is there no email to contact. I’m trying to cancel my free trial but they’ve tried to take payment from an empty bank account so now it won’t let me and it keeps on trying so I can’t add any money into my account otherwise they’ll take it.

Photoshop 26.10Windows 10 Pro 22H2I used this last night to remove objects from about 20 pictures, the "open" function was working great, also with the exporting process. No problems. A bit later, I was starting another task, and all I was trying was to drag and drop a picture, remove the background, and collage it with another picture when this stubborn error kept appearing. I was expecting the picture to open on the canvas as a Layer and just do my thing from there. I restarted PS, I restarted computer, I did everything from the guides, I updated the drivers. I also used an older version, same problem. I don't know what else to do. Any suggestion is helpful

Select the Object Selection Tool. The try to name or rename a layer with something containing an 'n' like "name". The 'n' will not appear until you deselect the Object Selection Tool. The layer will be called "ame". Have the Object Selection Tool selected. Then create a new layer and try to name it “new layer”. The ‘n; will not be able to type into the name. You will get “ew layer”. If you deselect the Object Selection Tool then the ‘n’ will work again.

I just used the web application of Photoshop for the first time and played around a little bit with the facial expression changer of Nano Banana Pro. Which is honestly quite fun, I have to admit.However, the issue I had was that after generating a couple of different variations of my prompt and subsequently selecting one of them as my favorite, the web app simply deleted all my other variants—even though I used my credits for them. And since this was my first time with the web app's UI, I didn't even notice immediately. I only realized it after a few more prompts and throwing a couple hundred credits down the drain, only to keep three different Photoshop layers in the end…After consulting the web app's integrated AI assistant, it told me that all generated variants would be available in my document through the contextual taskbar. Which, of course, they are not. So I would really like to know if anyone else has experienced the same problem?And for everyone who wants to use the Nano Bana

When I edit a session for a client, I usually do it from my computer. I wanted to store the files to cloud documents as well just until I finish that session. Then I would remove from cloud and back up with my usual 3,2,1. However when I choose "Save As" and back it up to my computer, the option to save to cloud is greyed out. Is it possible to save my work to my computer and cloud documents as well? These are JPEG files. Working on PS latest version on a MAC 

Latest Photoshop.open the attached file in working space Adobe RGB 1998 (the choice for many photographers and others working with accurate colours and a wide colour gamut recreating colours of nature and photoshoots)hit printscreen buttonGo file new and choose colour profile ‘working RGB AdobeRGB1998’. Color mode for me is always RGB colour and 8 bit. and that lot always works, or has done for decades. Monitor (color calibrated Eizo) is set to 80 candelas Adobe RGB 1998, Camera AdobeRGB1998, scanner ditto.Paste and upload here the result.If all is correct (as per CS6, and Pshop 2024) it will look like the source image.If you have the Pshop 27 bug, it will have become something akin to sRGB, duller, earthy, lacking saturation etc.now repeat and this time use Colour profile ‘Dont Color manage’ and what’s it like ?here is the source file. Adobe say they can’t replicate the problem so cannot fix it. A friend has it dull down for both Adobe RGB and also ‘Dont colour manage’, double trouble

Thanks to all who took part in our drill challenge. It is amazing what was made from that simple object.This week we have another object. It is a watchmaker’s jewelling tool, used to fit and adjust the jewels which act as bearings in a watch movement. Whilst that is it’s real purpose, I’m sure you can come up with some great alternatives. So for this challenge, what can you make from this tool?The “rules”:Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used.  There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go! The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge o

HI, only in the last few days I find I am unable to open files from Lightroom in photoshop. I just keep getting the error message as seen in attached image. I’ve never has a problem before over many years use. I’ve tried everything I found suggested with an internet search and I can’t find mention of any known issues with this. LR and PS are completely up to date, 15.4.1 & 27.8 respectively and my Mac OS is up to date with Tahoe 26.5.2 I have the catalog on my Mac mini M4 and images on two external hard drives, neither are overly full. I am at a loss how to proceed other than trying an uninstall and reinstall with PS….. 

I was cropping my photo in camera raw using Bridge. I clicked on a return arrow with dots on the right side panel. The whole screen went black. Unable to turn off the laptop. Unable to see anything to restart or shutdown either. Thank you.

Photoshop est devenu extrêmement lent : dès son lancement, une énorme latence apparaît, puis toute l'interface rame. Malgré une réinitialisation complète et toutes les vérifications possibles, je suis totalement bloqué et ne sais plus quoi faire.

As I recall, when recording a photoshop action, there is a capability of stopping the action, allowing a pause to peform a manual adjustment and then resuming the action. I can find no tutorial on how to do this -- can someone send me in the right direction please?Thanks to those who know more than me,Joe
