Sorry, but firefly seems bad. it diesn't reply as I'm asking for...I prefer to have 3 kinds of choose and previous release 

how can i get this  26.2. BETA verson software online ?  

I have a large external HDD where I keep all my photo images.  In the Photoshop (Beta) settings I've set the scratch disk to a different drive, one that is an internal SSD.  What I've noticed is that as I am editing an image after opening it from the HDD there is periodic activity on the HDD that I suspect is being done by Photoshop.  No other applications use the HDD.  The activity on the HDD seemes to be in response to some editing action I've taken.  Then it seems that about every 5 minutes or so there is HDD activity and the user interface of Photoshop stops responding for about 10 to 15 seconds.  I'd appreciate an explanation of this behavior and maybe a way to get around it.  Thanks in advance to anyone / everyone who wants to reply.  I'm running on Windows 11 with all updates installed.

Fix the bug where changes made inside a smart object aren’t saved when returning to the main composition. This is one of the most annoying bugs lately.

Issue: When selecting an area using the marquee tool, Photoshop ignores most types of user input and various deselect and tool switch attempts becoming stuck in "select" state. Photoshop Version: Beta 27.0OS Version: Windows 11 26100.6584 (24H2) Steps to reproduce:1. Open any document in PS (suddenly started having the problem in stable release initially, but noticed it persisted into beta versions as well)2. Select the marquee tool using keybind or menu3. Make a selection of any size4. Attempt to stop making a selection Expected result: Using the marquee tool, I expect to be able to left-click and hold (using a mouse) to then drag the cursor across my document to select a desired area, and to release the left-click hold to finalize the selection area without issue. Actual result: When making a selection using the marquee tool by left-clicking and holding it while dragging the cursor across an area, the program becomes nearly unresponsive and ignores the user's rele

PS Beta 26.11 IMAGE-ADJUSTMENTS-BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST not working correctly.When you click on the Brightness or Contrast slider, as you move it, it flickers instead of increasing or decreasing, and the preview is incorrect until you lift your mouse off the slider. 

I opened PS Beta after updating it and noticed my current computer which is a 2023 Macbook Pro with 64GB memory is not enough for PS Beta?  This is worrisome.  I can't buy a new computer every two years.  Will I have problems?

When using artboards, I can't seem to use camera raw or the harmonizer tool on an individual artboard. Right now, it pulls up all of the artboards.

I am using Photoshop Beta v 26.11 on my Windows 11 PC. I would like to add an object to a portion of my photo using a reference image for Generative Fill. In the past, this has been no problem. After making my selection, I simply click the reference image icon in the Generative Fill tool box that pops up and upload the image. Today, however, that icon is greyed out. I hover over the icon and it tells me that to activate this feature I need to be using Firefly Image 3 model. Fine, but I am already using that model. What is going on here and how do I fix it? Thanks!

Announcing Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) and Flux Kontext Pro models are now integrated into the Photoshop Desktop Generative Fill workflow (m.3236)   Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) and Flux Kontext Pro models can be used for style transfer, text editing, object modification, quick or controlled edits, and complex transformations integrated into the familiar Generative Fill workflow for creative control and non-destructive editing. When a user makes a selection, Photoshop sends the selected area for processing - the result is limited to 1k resolution. Since the models may not have the full context, there could be seams and composition limitations as a result. The models can perform better if you give a larger selection and use prompts to restrict editing. We suggest making a larger, loose selection using the Selection Brush. If you use a selection with a hard edge, we notice shifting and a hard edge on the generated pixels. Check out the following&
