Bonjour,Quand j'utilise l'Outil Correcteur Localisé en cliquant avec ma souris sur une zone de la photo à l’écran, une multitude de lignes partent dans tous les sens. Donc cet outil ne fonctionne plus depuis plusieurs jours. Est-ce un bug ?

Installation von CS6 auf zweiten Rechner funktioniert nicht , da angeblich schon auf zwei Rechnern CS6 laufen soll was aber nicht stimmt. Wie kann man CS 6 wieder auf einen zweiten Rechner istallieren? Vielen Dank .

Ich kann meine CS 6 Lizenz nicht mehr auf einen zweiten Rechner installieren, da angeblich CS6 schon auf 2 Rechnern läuft. Momentan läuft CS6 nur noch auf einem Rechner, auf dem anderen wurde CS6 komplett deinstalliert und bei der Neuinstallation sagt Adobe das die Seriennummer schon zweimal vergeben wäre. Gibt es da eventuell Hilfestellung- Vielen Dank!

Back up setting, tools etc to Adobe Cloud

Is there no way to efficiently back up preferences, tools etc. instead of having to start all over again after being forced to - yet again - reset PS settings?Do I have to dig through all sorts of folders an back the up externally every time I make a change because this preferences issue STILL doesn’t work properly?

[Bug] Photoshop crashes/shutdowns immediately when grouping (Ctrl+G) duplicated layers.Open for Voting

Hello Adobe Team, I am experiencing a critical crash issue in the recent Photoshop update. Photoshop shuts down immediately without any error message when I try to group layers. [Steps to Reproduce]1. Select any layer (especially ones with default or localized names).2. Duplicate the layer using 'Ctrl + J' (which automatically adds a suffix like 'copy' or localized text like '의 복사' in Korean).3. Select both the original and duplicated layers.4. Press 'Ctrl + G' to group them.5. Photoshop crashes and closes instantly. [Expected Result] The layers should be grouped into 'Group 1' normally without any performance drops. [Actual Result] Immediate application crash/shutdown. [Temporary Workaround Found] If I go to Layer Panel Options and uncheck "Add 'copy' to Copied Layers and Groups", the crash no longer occurs. This highly suggests a severe bug or memory leak related to the layer text encoding/indexing engine when handling duplicated layer suffixes. Please look into this layer auto-namin

P: Adjusting layer properties doesn't work for Hue/Saturation/lum. HSL layersIn Development

The tab to click on and change the properties for an adjustment layer randomly disappears. Quitting and re-opening the app solves the issue, but it will happen again within minutes, usually when switching between different projects or different app on the computer.  On Photoshop v26.6 - Mac Mini M4 pro, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd.   Any help would be appreciated! ss

Feature Request: Single-Click Placement for CC Libraries (Similar to Actions "Button Mode")Open for Voting

I use CC Libraries heavily for assets, but having to constantly drag-and-drop or right-click to place them slows down the workflow—especially when compositing repeatedly. Right now, getting an item onto the canvas requires: Drag-and-drop (defaults to a Linked Smart Object), or Right-click -> choose Place Linked or Place Layers. I exclusively use Place Layers because I need to edit the components immediately. Going through the right-click menu every single time adds up to a lot of friction.So I’d like to suggest the following:Introduce a streamlined placement mode inside the Libraries panel—similar to how Button Mode works in the Actions panel. Single-Click to Place: Simply clicking an asset in the panel instantly drops it into the active document. Default Placement Settings: A panel option or toggle to set your preferred default behavior for single-clicks: Place Layers Place Linked Place Embedded Smart Object Modifier Keys: Alternatively, simple shortcuts like C

After Quitting Photoshop- Photoshop Is Running in the Background?

Is this something new in Photoshop 27.11? After quitting Photoshop I can see that it is not closed. If I go to the dock on my Mac desktop, ‘Quit’ is not an option but ‘Photoshop is running in the background’ is.Is this something new? Can I turn this off permanently so that Photoshop quits when I want it to? Thanks for your help.

Why renewal is always more expensive than a new subscription?

When I contacted support, I was advised to cancel the subscription I’ve held for years in order to get a better price, as they claimed there was nothing else they could do. I was extremely disappointed by this approach from Adobe toward a customer; I had always received prompt assistance in the past, but that was not the case this time.

I attached a video what happens when using split frequency but also happens when using any adjustment layer, it doesn't matter how many layers, masks or if you brush to an empty layer or using adjustment layer and it will randomly do this weird effect if is a mask on the file.

how to create a pattern with a slight offset

How do I create a pattern that repeats but not on a grid? I want the pattern to repeat at a 45% angle more or less, and with some overlapping elements. Pattern preview is great but things just repeat in boxes on top of each other. Thanks!

P: PS 27.11 Image > Adjustment Previews not changing on consecutive clicksInvestigating

Hi, Since a few days preview doesn’t work properly anymore.For instance: I select an area of an image, and I’m darkening that area with the Image > Adjustments menu.Then I click on the preview button to see the difference between my adjustment and the original situation.In the past I could toggle (preview/no preview) as many times as I liked. But now I can only click one time. I can use the preview button to see the original situation of the selected area, but when I’m clicking again (to return to the preview) the check mark appears, but I don’t see the adjustments anymore. They are applied however: when I’m clicking OK the darkened area is appearing. But I would like to see them before clicking on the OK button, so that I can test with darkening and lightening until the result is what I want.What should I do to restore the original toggling possibility? I have another problem with the rectangular selection tool. When I’m selecting an area, a rectangle appears on the image - so far,

Fill & expand in Photoshop doesn't work.

Generative Fill / Expand does not work in Photoshop 27.10.0. Generative Fill either fails with an error or remains stuck on “Generating…” indefinitely.The exact same computer, Adobe account, network connection and files work correctly when using the previous Photoshop version.I tested Firefly Fill & Expand, Firefly Image 1 and Firefly Image 5. All of them fail or remain stuck in Photoshop 27.10.0.Adobe Firefly in the browser works correctly.After reverting to the previous Photoshop version, Generative Fill / Expand immediately works again.This strongly suggests a regression in Photoshop 27.10.0 rather than an account, network or document issue.

How to show the true colour of metallic gold

Hi!I have a studio photograph of glasses with a gold metal frame. The image will be used for online shopping, so colour accuracy is very important.The issue is that the highlights and shadows obscure the actual gold colour of the frame, making it difficult to represent the product accurately.What would be the best way to reduce the highlights and minimize the shadows in Photoshop while preserving the natural gold colour and metallic appearance of the frame?Golden frames

CS5 Design Premium: Activation limit reached on both computers — unable to open apps to deactivate

Hello,I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium for approximately $700 as a perpetual license. My question concerns the entire suite, not just Photoshop.Both of my Windows computers now display “Activation limit reached.” I cannot open the applications to access Help > Deactivate. My Adobe account’s Activated Devices page shows no activated devices.I contacted Adobe support and was told that they could not reset the activation count. The advisor also said that the CS5 activation servers had been permanently retired, but I have not received an official reference confirming this specifically for CS5 Design Premium.Could someone please clarify: Is there an official way to deactivate these installations without opening the applications? Can I restore access to the suite using my existing serial number? Have the activation servers for CS5 specifically been retired? If so, where is Adobe’s official announcement? I understand that this is an old, unsupported product. I am simpl

Photoshop inserts “5” while replacing text and changes layer opacity to 50%Open for Voting

Photoshop version: 27.11.0Operating system: macOS Tahoe 26.6.1Hardware: Apple M4 ProSteps to reproduce:1. Open a Photoshop document with multiple text layers.2. Copy text from one text layer.3. Open another text layer and select its text for replacement.4. Paste the copied text and continue editing.5. Perform another operation or click elsewhere.Actual result:The number “5” is sometimes inserted into the text even though I am not pressing the 5 key. At the same time, the selected layer’s opacity changes to 50%.This happens frequently during text replacement. The key I press is physically far from the 5 key, so this does not appear to be accidental key input. It seems that the text input may be interpreted as a global Photoshop shortcut as well.Expected result:Only the intended text should be pasted or edited, and the layer opacity should remain unchanged.
