Photoshop

i logged on one day to none of my designs being in my home screen as if i had just downloaded photoshop for the first time can anyone explain how to get them back i kept seeing a scratch disk error right before loading in

I do retouch work and am redrawing line art backgrounds and Photoshop has HUGE issues when zooming in and trying to rotate the canvas. I am constantly having to hit the escape key to get the program to release from whatever it is doing when it gets confused as I zoom in and then try to rotate the canvas. Sometimes it will switch to the eyedropper tool when I am trying to zoom back out.I am using the TourBox elite controller while doing this. Plug in is installed correctly. But it could be the controller that is causing the issue.Both programs are updated. It does work better with the Photoshop’s internal rotation - but are there any settings I can tweak to get it to work better with TourBox?It is much much worse since I updated to the 27.6.0 release.Anyone else here have similar issues?

I'm using Photoshop on my iPad and want to print images to a photo printer. I want to be able to specify height, width, dpi, and place where on the media the image will print. Is it possible and how can I do it?

I am using MacOS 26.4.1 with Photoshop 26.3.1. The grid view in Home panel is failed to render and I only can use list view. And another error is when first open the app it will not load any recent files until I open 1 file and back to home panel. 

I’m having trouble quickly making a New Guide Layout that centers the rows the same way that centering columns works.  My first screenshot shows my settings in the New Guide Layout screen, while the second shows the type of grid layout I am trying to quickly create. Currently, I am adding the horizontal lines manually.  My document settings in the screenshots are 3.75in x 2.25in at 600dpi. The example is for business cards with a bleed, but I’d like to be able to use the New Guide Layout this way for any other file size that requires a bleed. I am working in Photoshop v27.6 on a Windows 11 computer. 

I want to change the icon files because currently the icon files are exactly the same that the app icon.

Hello! I would like to ask those experienced with digital painting about brush settings with Photoshop. I am new to digital painting and have had some challenges getting used to manipulating my digital brush, particularly with pressure sensitivity. I press hard on my tablet, so initially I set my Wacom pressure settings to soft to try and compensate for this. This led to virtually no control for pressure sensitivity in Photoshop as values would blow out near instantly. Now, my Wacom tablet pressure settings are default with medium pressure sensitivity. I see different artists using different settings such as, only opacity and no flow, full transfer settings, no transfer settings, etc. I am confused between what sort of settings I should be using with my default hard round brush. Specifically, when painting, should I have the transfer setting enabled or disabled, for both flow and opacity? Why or why not? Here is a video by Peter Mohrbacher advising against transfer settings, that I cam

Photoshop 27.1.0 freezes whenever I start it, all the app freeze with no error or freezing messages or any reports, it keeps stocking, I tried to clear the temp files and reset the app from the preferences and also holding the (ctrl+alt+shift) buttons method and reset it several times, but it's still the same.I use 64-bit Windows 11 pc, 16 ram  and 1T SSDI worked with this version smoothly for almost 2 months with no issues, the issue suddenly happened yesterday

I'm new to Mac and cannot really see the tiny thumbnail icons which PS seems to give as standard- is there a way to enlarge them. They look especially tiny on my 27 inch screen! In Win 10 there was a choice of several sizes and I always used the largest when secection an image to work on. Any suggestions? Thanks, Pete.

Hello,I have a lot of scanned CD booklets like I have no deeper experience with Photoshop and mainly use PaintShopPro for graphics but since Photoshop is included in my subscription and I found no solution with PaintShopPro I ask here..Is there a convenient and fast way to process these pictures:Load it Adjust it horizontal Crop it In the case of the booklet device it in two pages (in two new images) and save them?And the same with the back-inlay and the CD?And even better process CDs or he booklets in batch? It would be nice if someone how have deeper knowledge then me could give me some hints. Thanks Stefan Westner

How do I disable this feature? I have saved a file as a copy (jpg, png, etc) and I no longer need the file. I try to close it but Photoshop locks up until I save it as a PSD file as well before I can close the file. Why does it do this? I am using Adobe Photoshop 2022.

Simply put, if I have a base image and edit it with levels and/or curves in Photoshop and then flatten or merge visible or stamp visible, the images darkens noticeably making it impossible to measure with Color Picker what the edited values actually are.  This is a headache at a number of levels for my workflow.  I had not noticed it previously so I don’t know if this is a recent bug or something I have only now become sensitive to.  Any input would be appreciated. Mac Mini M2, Photoshop 2026 on my computer

There are vertical lines throughout an old photo I'm restoring, and I haven't figured out how to eliminate them. Ideas welcome! Apparently there's no way to add an attachment here, which renders this query useless...Ah; OK, here we go. I’m not sure if the lines were the result of a texture on the original photo, but I would like to remove them if possible.

I have to say that the results I get from generative fill in photoshop are absolutely terrible. Why is adobe including a poor quality function? Not only do the image results look unrealistic but the reults are in low resolution, so absolutely no use whatsoever to a print designer. Might be fun for someone trying out photoshop for personal use, but when I pay a lot of money for a professional application and it includes a function that is dreadful then there is big problem in my opinion. Can adobe either make functions that work to a high standard or drop the monthy subscription price to reflect how poor AI is.

Hi forum, is there an equivalent in PS to get Corner type like in Illustrator? I notice in PS there is an option to round off the corners, but I also would like to know if there's an option about making the corners of a shape chamfer or inverted round. Thank you   

Could you please recommend a very experienced Photoshop teacher for private lessons? Thanks 

I’ve been attempting to upscale an image today on my Windows 11 PC, and so far I’m only able to use Firefly or Topaz Bloom, but I need to be able to use Topaz Gigapixel. Normally this is a very fast process for me, but today the progress bar spends several minutes gradually filling up, and if I let it continue it was eventually giving me an error although the last couple of times I tried the progress bar went away and I didn’t see the error. I’ve never experienced this until today, and I’ve tried the option on two different machines unsuccessfully.

I’ve noticed a frustrating change in Photoshop’s Levels adjustment tool. When using the white point eyedropper to set the white point by sampling in the image, the correction is now much more intense and immediately blows out the highlights, destroying shadow details. Previously, clicking a light but not pure white area would produce a subtle, balanced adjustment, preserving tonal range.This new behavior makes it impossible to maintain shadows while using the white point eyedropper and significantly disrupts my workflow. Is there any way to restore the previous, more forgiving behavior, or could this be addressed in a future update?

First time posting here. When I open my installed programs in the windows 11 settings tab, I see two copies of Photoshop 2026 installed- 27.1.0.17 and 27.4.0.15. They are not listed in the creative cloud desktop, currently I do not have photoshop as a downloaded program there. So I try to use the windows uninstall and they will not uninstall. Next I tried the cleanup tool, and when I look through the list of programs able to be removed the only installed program able to be removed is Lightroom which I have installed and would like to keep it as it is. I just want to uninstall the duplicate programs and install photoshop once.

Subject: "Program Error" specifically with Remove Tool on Mac Studio M2 Max (but Neural Filters work)Hi everyone,I’m facing a persistent "Program Error" in Photoshop (v27.6.0) on my Mac Studio (M2 Max, 64GB RAM). The error occurs every time I use the Remove Tool (or any Replace operation) the moment I release the mouse button.The strange part:The Neural Filters work perfectly and can be downloaded/applied without issues. The same Photoshop version works flawlessly on my MacBook Air M4. The error on the Mac Studio happens even on a new, empty 8-bit RGB document.What I have already tried:Complete Clean Install: Used the Adobe CC Cleaner Tool, reinstalled on the internal Macintosh HD (it was previously on an external SSD). Preferences: Reset on launch; toggled "Stable" vs. "Faster" processing in Image Processing. GPU Settings: Deactivated "Use Graphics Processor"; tried "Basic" mode; disabled OpenCL. Folders: I noticed that ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/UXP/PluginsStorage/PHSP/27/In

I used DNG converter with Sony's three raw formats for the A7 V. Although the ARW files for the HQ and compressed formats are much smaller than the lossless compressed file, the DNG from the lossless compressed file is smaller than the other two. Does that make sense? Since the other two are lossy, I expected the corresponding DNGs to be smaller.  Here are sizes for 3 shots of the same thing:Lossless compressed:  48.56 MB ARW → 40.95 MB DNGCompressed HQ:  34.05 MB ARW → 42.61 MB DNGCompressed:  34.33 MB ARW → 42.87 MB DNG

The remove tool is not working in PS 27.6.0. I get the message “required components are being downloaded check back later”. I’ve gone to the Creative Cloud app and it shows the components are installed, I’ve deleted PS and reinstalled it, rebuilt the preference files, restarted my M1 iMac running OS 26.4.1, checked settings to use the more stable options, but nothing helps, the same message keeps popping up every time I try to click on the remove tool icon.
