Photoshop

I've bee working on this project all week and had no issues. But when I recently tried to open it, it just flat out would not open. No error messages, or anything. Photoshop is fully updated (23.3.1) and I even updated my OS to Monterey to see  if that solved the issue, but it persists. My older PSDC files are opening just fine.   Has anyone else had this issue? Any insight would be much appreciated. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't have to start over from scratch on this.

Version; 22.5.1 OS: Mac Big Sur (11.5) Reproduce: Have a non-retina external monitor connected to a Retina Macbook as the main screen. Open a file. It will open at 100% but with the window sized smaller than the image. Expected: Files used to open with the entire image visible within the window, so you don't have to resize the window, nor click the green mazimize button.   Seems this issue was introduced after version 22.4.3; See these two discussions for further explanation / confirmation of the problem: https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/photoshop-2021-documents-opening-in-small-window-with-scroll-bars/m-p/12355206#M580016 and https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/why-is-the-window-too-small-when-i-open-a-file-in-photoshop-now-screenshot/m-p/12355317#M580029   {Moderator note: Edited the thread title}

I have a problem with selection from multiple paths in Photoshop CC 2020. Say, I have one closed path and click Load path as a selection button which results in selection. But the behavior changes with the number of paths greater than one on one layer. The button deselects paths but loads no selection. Please fix it.

Recently, whenever I make a change to a Photoshop file that is saved on Google Drive and then try to save those changes, I keep getting this error: Could not save “(filename)” because of a program error.   We use Google Drive at my job to save and share files between coworkers and computers. It has never been an issue until now.   I either have to delete the original file and save again or save as something else which is annoying and when you're trying to save your work as you go. I don't have any problems saving over a file that is on my hard drive. It's only when saving over a file in Google Drive.   I'm using macOS Catalina (version 10.15.16) and the most current version of Photoshop CC.    There has to be some way to fix this. Help please!

Hello, After updating to Photoshop 21.2.0 (June 2020 release), on a Mac, running 10.14.6, I've encountered a bug toggling between a layer mask and its layer using keyboard shortcuts (Command + \ and Command + ~). After clicking CMD + \ , I am taken to the layer mask, as per usual, but, now it also goes into overlay mode. I have to click \ to get out of overlay mode. This happens on all three Macs, I've used, all on 10.14.6. Thanks, in advance, for checking into this.

Imagine this: You hace a pencil black and white drawing scanned and you want to add colour without destroying the pencil art. So you create a new layer over the background and start painting your colours there, maybe with layer in multiply mode. Then, for some reason, you inadventedly change active layer to background. You keep painting and then realize half of your painting work has been done on the pencil art layer (the background) ruining your work!   The solution is locking the pixels of the pencil art, so, if you inadventedly try to paint on that layer, the cursor will become a forbidden sign and you will get a pop up warning if you try to paint.   The problem is apparently you can't lock the pixels on the beackground even if you have pixel locking (or all locking) activated. This doesn't seem to work in the background layer (maybe because it is not really a layer).   The workaround is create a new layer from the background so pixel locking works, but I think Pixel

Jeffrey - thanks for the quick response.  If you check my 2nd post I said that it was pressing the Backspace key, not the Delete key.

I have noticed this inconsistency in Photoshop since version 2020. Try this please: 1.- If we add a GRADIENT FILL LAYER.Among other things we can change the location of the gradient by clicking and dragging on the canvas.2.- But if we enter the gradient editor (although we don't edit anything), we can no longer move the location of the gradient.3.- The simplest way I have found to solve it (on Mac) is to change the application momentarily (Cmd + tab and again Cmd + tab); this unlocks the function, and we can move the gradient again with the mouse. (Other annoying "solution" would be click Ok in the Gradient Fill box dialog and double click the thumbnail of the layer but... no).   I would appreciate if Adobe takes action in this particular issue that we have been dragging at least since PS 2020

CEP 9.0 (Chormium Version: 61.0.3163.91) does not allow the creation of cookies sameSite=None and Secure. For some reason this started happening from April 25th previously it was working fine. I'm not sure if this error is due to an update to Adobe Photoshop.   The cookies sameSite=Strict or sameSite=Lax are allowed, but I require it to be sameSite=None as I am using oidc client js to authenticate with an identity server.   Thank you in advanced.

I'm using Photoshop 23.3.1 on OS X 11.6.5   When making a new layer group that sits below an existing layer group (below, not inside of), if the above layer group has a label color the new layer group is also given that color, when I would expect it to get no color.    How to reproduce error: Open a new PS document. Make a new, empty layer. Place the layer in a layer group. Set the layer group's color to something like Red. Make a new layer below the group, but not inside it. Now with new layer selected, place that new layer into a new group using either the right click menu or the command shortcut CMD+G. The new layer group will form under the previous group, but will also be colored red. If the right click menu is used, the dialogue will show red (or whatever color) selected as the default. This behavior does not seem to happen if you use the group button at the bottom of the panel.  

I rarely use the dissolve mode (especially on layer styles) but I needed it for a pixelart work of mine On the image you can see how the Drop Shadow layer style has sharp 2bit edges in dissolve mode but the Stroke stays anti-alaised.   interestingly if you use the opacity of the layer style, the inner part of the effect dissolves the same way but the edges still stay semi-transparent. I know it's a minor thing but I thought I'd report it.  

When you have 4 documents open and arrange them via Window > Arrange > Tile you get something like this:   (I used the application frame in this example.)   When you now hit Command+0 on one of the documents it zooms to 313 % which is the same as it would do when you only have one document visible on your screen. Which means that the document is displayed a lot too big for the currently given window. I mean yes the command is titled "Fit on Screen" and actually it's still fits on the screen, but nonetheless that's an awkward behavior. I would expect Photoshop to be smart enough, so that it zooms to about 151 % so that the document fit's to the window (like in the manually zoomed example > lower right-hand corner:   Maybe I miss something here, but I my opinion that's more a bug than a feature ...  

Hi, I'd like to report a bug that has been plaguing photoshop for some time. This is to display a histogram for the adjustment layer which is in Clipping Mask mode.   When the adjustment layer is in Clipping mask mode, the histogram that displays in the Properities panel should only be for one layer below. For some reason, all new versions of Photoshop display a histogram for all layers below which I think is a bug and not working properly.   When the adjustment layer is in Clipping mask mode, the histogram should be in Selected Layer mode for the layer below, and it is in Entire Image mode.   As a result, it is impossible to precisely set Levels or Curves, because the histogram does not display the data that the user needs.   Hope something can be done about it.   PS. In the Photoshop CS6 and below this was no issue as everything was working fine with this. 

I encountered this bug while exporting some project files with the Export As dialog. It's seems so easy to encounter, I don't know how I avoided it for so long.   If I have a new Photoshop document and have anything on layer 1, and layer 3 clipped to layer 2 and layer 2 is hidden, then when trying to use Export As, layer 3 is fully visible.   What the output looks like.   What the layers look like   Is anyone else able to recreate this issue? It's kind of annoying.   Below are some of my system specs, though this happened on another machine with similar specs as well.   Adobe Photoshop Version: 22.4.0 20210512.r.195 5b318a5  x64 Number of Launches: 71 Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit Version: 10 or greater 10.0.19041.928 System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:12, Stepping:1 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX, AVX2, HyperThreading Physical processor count: 4 Logical processor count: 8 Processor speed: 1805 MHz

Hi, why does the app default to German for Switzerland when the adobe profile has specifically selected english as the language. The app should reference the profile info. 

Almost every time I use Image>Trim, Photoshop crashes or tells me "One or more selections cannot be exported because they are empty." When it crashed it will either stop responding or will not render properly by the GPU and will look like the attached screenshot. I am using Windows 10.

Using the Photoshop 23.1.1 Release I can not get a specific look file (Crisp_Winter.look) to display correctly When selecting color lookup Then trying to load the 3DLUT File from the pull down menu When selecting the option Crisp_Winter.look the image turns black This is not suposed to happen, however the other look files work as expected I've check the location: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2022\Presets\3DLUTs And the file exist. This has worked in the past and I really need this look   Can anyone help or suggest a workaround?

For the last six months (or so) the name of the Current Tool can take 5-10 seconds to display in the status bar (lower left). I'm a heavy keyboard user, so J, S, U, E get used a lot. The tool function changes quickly (as seen in the Tool pallette) but the current name display takes several seconds. This becomes a problem with keys such as J which has at least four tools - yes, I use all of them. Say I move between Clone Stamp, Eraser and Blur, then come back to "J" - I may not remember which tool I used last and may wait 5-10 secs before the name appears. My workflow has been the same for many years as have my settings (below). Could PS have changed something in an update in the last few months? Using GFX processor w/ all 4 options ticked PS can use 70% of RAM (8,436 MB) 60 history states; 6 cache levels; tile size 1024 k Yes, I always update PS with the latest and greatest Running Windows 10 Home, 64 bit, always updated Hoping to hear it's a known issue and Adobe is working on it.

In my workflow I have to open pdf files in Photoshop. When the popup window asks a spec for size and resolution it always used to keep whichever colour MODE was last used.Since a recent update it now seems to choose one completely at random - regardless of whether the pdf is RGB or CMYK or Grayscale.I ALWAYS need to open these in CMYK Mode (that is, in fact, the point of the exercise). Why does it go to a random choice? Why has it changed from holding its previous value.Resolution holds its previous value - please correct the Mode to do the same, just as it always used to.

After opening any file sometimes crash, if not then it crashes after any operation, for example changing color on a simple text layer.

From today I cant just drop and drag my AI artwork to a Photoshop, neither just copy and paste as Smart Object turn PS into the long loading and then this message appears: Could not complete the Paste command because the clipboard data is empty or invalid.Until yesterday it works well everyday, I suspect the last update was break it. Im running Adobe CC (latest) on M1 Macbook Pro 13, 16GB

Photoshop does not provide a method to disable neural filters. I have some problem of stability I isolated everything but network. Photoshop (all version) constantly freezing with W... - Adobe Support Community - 12826935 I observed photoshop constantly communicating with amazonaws, I am pretty sure that it got stuck because some firewall setup on the main server that prevent an anwser from the outside that should trigger some whateve event.   I don't use neurfal filters and therfore I do not need them, I do not want constantly photoshop sending telemetry to whateve who knows, without my consent.   Please provide a method to disable neural filters and-opt out telemetry. Thanks

Photoshop entra en conflicto con el historial de portapapeles de Windows 10 al tratar de pegar una imagen, solo pega la última que se copió. _________________   Photoshop conflicts with Windows 10 clipboard history when trying to paste an image, it only pastes the last one copied.  

I've been dealing with this problem, I think for years before I'm finally mentioning it.  Basically, a couple years ago, Photoshop developed a slight delay when I begin to zoom, or pan.  It's very slight.  Maybe most people wouldn't worry about it but here is the problem that it causes.  When doing things like digital painting, I'm working very quickly. I pan, paint, zoom, paint, rotate screen, paint, pan, erase, etc.  All of this with a great fluidity, as long as the system is keeping up.  In Photoshop, I paint, pan....it didn't actually pan but I went ahead and painted a stroke. There's a pause as Photoshop thinks, or tries to catch up then suddenly it makes a paint stroke, but it missed the pan movement.  I zoom then paint but it skipped the zoom and makes a paint stroke in the wrong place.  It missed the rotate and caught up with the erase so it erased in the wrong place.  The cure for all of this for me has been to actually work more sl
