Cant Highlight Text

Same here... did as stated preferences performance unchecked use graphic processor cursor n selection appeared for now...

Same issue here. Changed color settings to Monitor RGB Settings and that fixed it. Try it...

I'm Running Mojave and experiencing the text highlighting issue along with odd polygonal lasso tool behavior as well. None of the fixes outlined by others in this thread worked except for either unchecking "Use Graphics Processor" in PS preferences or creating a new RGB document in PS, then going back to my original PS document that was experiencing these issues.

For me, I've been able to get this working without having to reset preferences. So long as I create a new RGB doc and throw a textbox onto the document, I can then edit text in any other docs that are open. I still find it ridiculous this is even an issue but this is a quick workaround that has consistently been working for me. I'm running the latest version of CC and am on the latest version of macOS Mojave 10.14.4

WORKAROUND - I don't know if anyone else has posted this but I had the same problem. I was able to get my cursor and text highlight back after I created a new doc with text box.

I am a bit frustrated - every update moves me closer and closer to Affinity apps and I am just about done after this pathetic Photoshop CC v.20 update.

I was having the same problem in 20.0.4 and I got it to work by just opening a new document tab, and starting a new text layer which worked fine and I was able to highlight text, then swapped to the other tab where it was not working and then everything was fine there. Very strange.

OMG this is so poor, Adobe! 20.0.4 is out and still doesn't fix it.

The more they update the more things they screw up!

This is what support told me to do (I'm on Windows 10) and it worked for me:

Edit -> Preferences -> General

Click "Reset Preferences on Quit" button

Close Photoshop

Reopen it

Here is the link to the workaround to this known issue

Adobe's solution is opening an RGB document, per session. (until this is resolved)
