Photoshop

At times, the shortcut keys stop working and I’m having to use the previous tool mistakenly. This happens randomly and I have to press a shortcut for a tool multiple times before it starts working. This happens especially with the zoom tool where I have to press its shortcut multiple times, also with the remove tool. 

This issue is on Photoshop 27.7 and Photoshop (Beta) as well. I’m using a macbook with macOS 26. Whenever I use selection brush tool to select a part of an image, then if I use it again and it intersects with the selection i had previously created, that intersected part gets de-selected for some reason even though the “ADD” function is on. This problem should be fixed and it’s been a nuisance for a long time now. As you can see, the “ADD” function is on, and the place where the pink lines intersect get de-selected.  

Its very delayed but when it does load it doesnt do what I have asked 

I have a large number of photos that were scanned from negatives years ago. Ideally, they would be a perfect 3x2 or 2x3 aspect ratio but that is not the case. I am looking to size them for the web using Photoshop. I can do this manually but I am looking to create an action to do such.This is what I typically do. Size the longest edge to be 1200px. If shortest edge is >= 800px, trim the canvas down so that the image is now 1200x800 (or 800x1200), Else if the shortest edge < 800px, size the image so that the shortest edge is 800px and trim the canvas so that the image is 1200x800 (or 800x1200). Save the file as "<Original Name> (Full).jpg" in a different folder. Size the image down to 266x400 (or 400x266 if landscape). Save the file as "<Original Name> (Thumb).jpg" in a different folder. I'm having problems creating the action, specifically with steps 2 & 3. Any hints or pointers for that?

When opening raw files in ACR I get a split screen showing my RAW image plus a filmstrip like section with a copy of the image.  I dont want this split screen, how can i get back to a single screen 

Photoshop randomly stops working/freezes aS I am making edits and then will just stay frozen. If reload page, then it will not save the edits i made at all to image. It has never done this before so I am confused as to what to to do. My computer is up to date. I have a macbook. It has enough storage. I have signed out of photoshop. It’s only photoshop because lightroom is working perfectly. 

I am trying to edit jpg image files from a recent trip, but while Photoshop allows me to open the jpg, it won't then allow me to use any of the editing tools (apart from the crop function).  I also found that Photoshop will not allow me to edit some older jpg images, including some that had previously already been edited in Photoshop without issue!If anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this matter, I would really appreciate it.Thanks for your help. 

The function File → Export → Color Lookup Tables does not create the correct 3D LUTs anymore.The output cube files are valid, but the values do not match the adjustments made in Photoshop.

Hello everyone,I’ve been working with Photoshop since my student days. Now, almost 20 years later I still do (in combination with Lightroom) and would like to buy a new workstation, optimized for these 2 apps. I’ve always used Photoshop on an older computer or a laptop and would like to improve my workflow with a more powerful system.I do not want to make this question go on for to long so I’ll get to the point. I would like to buy this exact system and while it is technically a gaming computer, I ‘m sure it is way more powerful than all my other computers I’ve ever used for Photoshop.I would like to configure this system with an 9900X, 64GB RAM and an RTX 5060.Now my question(s): Are these specs wrong or not ideal for Photoshop / Lightroom? Are they maybe too powerful and am I wasting money on specs I won’t ever use? Should I be worried about having a watercooler? Will it leak ever?Thanks everyone for taking the time to read through my questions.

Happens to me, when I use text tool. Click once to start writing text and it freezes, when it responds again it has multiple layers of ‘Lorem Ipsum’ text added

I receive monthly emails with new features and links. the links don’t work and an Adobe chat says that it’s phishing.Are there genuine monthly emails?

Can anyone help, please? Photoshop has changed the behaviour of the text box, I used to be able to change size seamlessly with good old Command + T. Now, I cannot find a way to make the new, annoying ways to work. If I manage to select the text box and see the handles, only happening while pressing the right button, which is not practical. When I try to reshape, resize, the text size does with it. Etc… I don’t have much time and I’ve already spent two hours on AI platforms to try to figure it out. Thanks!!! 

When I try to open a JPEG file on my hard drive, even one I’ve opened before, it won’t open it.  I also cannot save in JPEG format now, either.  It gives me an error message ‘Could not complete your request because of a program error.’  I click on the ‘let’s fix it’, but it sends me to a page of helps that tell me to update the files and restart the program.  I did, and it did nothing to help.MIcrosoft Surface with Windows 11.  Photoshop is on my desktop.Photoshop current version 27.6.0Steps to reproduce:Open an existing document.Click Save As and try to find a JPEG extension to save it as after editing the photo.Expected result  is to scroll down to see a JPEG file extension and save the picture.What actually happens is not finding the right extension and not being able to save it. 

Does anyone know what’s going on here?  I’ve never seen anything like it in all the years I’ve used PS.  I’m guessing that resetting Preferences will fix it, but I’m putting that off in case someone might tell me, ‘Oh yeah.  That’s the many worlds quantum cat in a box color picker.’  or some kind of rarely seen PS Easter Egg.   I did add the pre-2020 swatches from this YouTube video earlier today, so there’s a good chance that broke something.

Acabo de suscribirme a Photoshop, la última versión, pero cuando intento exportar para web en png o jpg me deja seleccionarlos pero luego veo que las imágenes se han guardado en gif. Con el anterior no tenía este problema. ¿Alguien puede ayudarme?
