Photoshop

Photoshop stops working when I try to change brush size or brush hardness. When I right click and change the brush size, the window freezes and doesn’t change the size or hardness. It does that if I right click or if I change the size in the box.Tried resetting preferences, tried restarting computer, tried restarting photoshop, tried resetting brush tools, tried removing ‘’smoothing’’ option. Nothing works and it’s very inconvenient as I use this feature every 5 minutes.On Windows 11 with wacom intuos pro, drivers up to date, photoshop up to date, and computer up to date. I tried changing the size with my mouse and it freezes too, so probably not a tablet issue.

all my action suddnly disapeared!i just used them yestarday, and now all gone (not even in photoshop presets),is there a way to restore them? there where a lot and important ones....

So I'm trying to export my print file in photoshop and its limiting me to a 46.87% size. It always does this for larger prints. Is there a work around for this where I can export the actual size, like 106x87 inch 300ppi document? Thanks guys!

MacBook Pro, Tahoe 26.5.1, PS 2026. PS somehow got corrupted and will not launch. I ran the PS uninstaller but the app was not deleted even after restart. However my account appears to show it uninstalled as the “3 dots” does not have an uninstall option.

How to get the preferences or workspace to stay when restarting?

Temperature and tint color correction completely lost their precision after last updates. There is no way anymore to make precision correction inside Photoshop and Camera Raw because you increased low and high slider values and +1 -1 minimum slider values are too much. +1 create too much visible temperature change. Minimum slider value should be decimals like 0.1

Hi everyone.I’m looking for an offline tool that can reduce JPG/PNG export sizes from Photoshop or Lightroom without noticeable loss of detail or color accuracy.I work with large batches of images (client galleries, events, etc.) and I’m trying to optimize storage and upload times while keeping fine details like skin texture, hair, fabric patterns, and micro‑contrast intact.Recently I came across a tool called ETK Image Compressor Pro, which claims up to 90% size reduction while preserving detail. It’s Windows‑native and works after exporting from Adobe apps.Has anyone here tested similar offline tools or has experience with this one?  

Hi allI’m getting a full Windows 11 PC crash when double clicking on layer masks.Top down black screen...’your device ran in to a problem’Have tried turning off GPU (use graphics processor) but still get the crash.Photoshop 27.7.0CheersSteve

I used firefly yesterday for the first time within photoshop, using firefly within photoshop. i went to finish up today. I have plenty of credits, i keep getting oops something went wrong. I certainly didnt do anything wrong. I was working on some character reference, and some things for discord challenges with google and nanobanna tools. any help would be great. ive been a pro subscriber with a adobe for a very long time. and firefly before wasnt much in my workflow, but now with the challeges from google and discord gave me a reason to try it. and certainly i want to use it within photoshop. 

I create a selection, use generative ai to add (in this case) a grass lawn. Why does it not follow the lines of the selection? Why does it not completely fill in the selection? Thank you for your help!!Best wishes,SP 

Is it possible to save this as it is? Save them as layers in a psd file isn’t what I am looking for.

Hi,My Photoshop installation seems to be missing the Generative Upscale option. It is simply not available within Image menu in version 27.8.Not sure if it was there before as I have never needed before. I tried reinstalling Photoshop, still no Generative Upscale. It’s not there when I search for “generative” withing the Keyboard shortcut menu.I have Generative Fill and Neural filter options available within Edit and Filter menus. I am running Windows 10.Screenshots are attached bellow:  

In my workflow, AI is a collaborator at the start—not the decision-maker at the end. I use partner models like Gemini, Nano Banana, and FluxContext Pro inside Photoshop to quickly generate starting points, variations, and directions. From there, the work becomes intentional: cropping, masking, color and lighting adjustments, and compositional refinement using Photoshop’s core tools.Sometimes I take selected artwork into Illustrator for AI-assisted Image Trace, vector cleanup, or pattern creation. Files may go to a manufacturer for physical samples, and when those come back, I bring photos of the real product into Photoshop to build polished marketing visuals and mockups.Partner models accelerate exploration. Photoshop is where authorship, judgment, and intent take over.   I’ve shared a short video walkthrough of this process—curious how others are using partner models like Adobe Firefly, Gemini, Nano Banana, or FluxContext Pro in their workflows.

Doel: Een compilatie van 3 foto's maken en laten afdrukken in maat 80x60 centimeter.Acties 1) Ik maak nieuw item (80x60 cm @ 200 ppi)open afbeelding 1 - 24,58 cm breed en 15,03 cm hoog @ 96 ppi en selecteer/kopieer deze en plak hem in het nieuwe canvas.  open afbeelding 2 - 48,18 cm breed en 29,66 hoog @ 96 ppi en selecteer/kopieer deze en plak hem in het nieuwe canvas.  open afbeelding 3 - 41,01 breed en 17,70 hoog @ 96 ppi n selecteer/kopieer deze en plak hem in het nieuwe canvas.  De afbeeldingen zijn geplaatst op hun breedte en hoogte, hetgeen 80x60 cm is, en toch blijft driekwart niet gebruikt.   Waarom worden de drie afbeeldingen op een kleiner formaat in het canvas gezet? Oftewel; Wat doe ik verkeerd?

Hello! I use Photoshop, but the AI generation tool is not working. Every time I try to use it, I get a message: “Please check your Internet connection.”

The Generative expand function in my desktop Photoshop software doesn't work. My latest attempt at using it simple involved trying to generate new image either side of an existing horse image. I was following a tutorial provided in Photoshop called ‘Expand images with Generative AI’ (see attached image). When I try to use the Gen expand function, it seems to start processing but then an error message appears (attached). It used to work fine but it has not worked for over 6 months. This is the first time I have reported it. I believe it started malfunctioning after a routine Photoshop update.I am part of a business subscription plan so I believe I have the most up to date version of the software (version 27.7.0). I am using a MS Windows operating system Dell machine. Full details can be sent on request.

Since the latest update, Photoshop doesn’t always open my .psd files. It will open the welcome window, but it’s sporadic whether it will open the file. As well, trying to close Photoshop  and restart has become an issue, forcing me to Force Quit the program and that doesn’t always work either without a complete shutdown.I’m on a Mac using Tahoe, 26.5.1 Any suggestions would be so helpful. Thank you.

Bug Report – Load Files into Stack dialog remembers the wrong last directoryPhotoshop version: 27.8.0 (also reproduced on current stable release) OS: masOS Tahoe 26.5.1Description: The "Load Files into Stack" dialog (File → Scripts → Load Files into Stack) is now remembering the last directory used for export/save operations instead of the last directory used for import/open operations.Previously, Photoshop kept these two contexts separate: the import dialog would remember the last folder from which files were imported, and the export dialog would remember the last folder to which files were exported. This allowed for an efficient workflow when working with separate source and output folders.Steps to reproduce:Export or Save As an image to Folder A. Go to File → Scripts → Load Files into Stack → Browse. Observe that the dialog opens Folder A (last export location) instead of the last folder used for importing.Expected behavior: The import dialog should open the last folder from which f

Neural filters are not loading in the current regular version of Photoshop or in the current version of Photoshop Beta.  I tried all of the troubleshooting and fixes suggested online, like disabling and re-enabling the GPU, clearing the cache, re-authenticating my account, uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop, etc.  Nothing worked.  This is relatively new.  Any recommendations on how to fix this or is it a problem for others, too?

Can't believe have to post about this This  ANNOYING thing block layers, so cant see what doing in photoshop.  I played the annoying video, still comes up! Help! thanks. Im a 25 year user, what have some department at Adobe, just dedicated to annoying it's users? Thanks!  Too many employees?   

Why does the Photoshop remover tool always fail? In both AI and non-AI modes? Even though my internet connection is fine? But when I switch to the object remover mode that uses tokens, it immediately runs smoothly. I'm using Photoshop 2026 version 27.7.0 with a Mac mini m4.

Tras la última actualización, Photoshop falla: la barra de herramientas muestra solo algunas opciones. Cambiar el espacio de trabajo no lo soluciona. También probé renombrar la carpeta PHSP 26 a 26.old, pero sigue igual. ¿Cómo puedo corregirlo?
