Sorry to bother everyone with this. All of a sudden Photoshop is not seeing the GPU on my iMac. MacOS is fully up to date and Photoshop has been running as normal up to now. Now, I can't do anything within Photoshop. I'm sorry if this insignificant but I am not too good at the technical stuff, just the creative!! Hope someone is able to help me out. Thanks so much....Chloe         {Thread title edited by moderator}

I will have someone open Photoshop on another computer; will they be able to see my files? I have not uploaded my files to the Creative Cloud and am not sure if it automatically does that. Is there a way for them to not see my files?

Im teaching my students the very quick way to add a pop of color to a black and white photo with using a Black & White Adjusment Layer and the eraser tool.  It is working with no problems on every students computer except one.  On this particular student's computer....it will not allow me to erase or even use the lasso tool or anything to select an area to delete.  Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?   I have restarted and I have checked her PS preferences against a working one, just to see if there is something there that is different but I have not seen anything.  Any help at all would be appreciated. 

This can't be an intentional update, so I'm posting as a bug....When using the Hue/Sat adjustment layer, I want to view the mask as I've always been able to do using the "\" key. Since updating, it temporarily resets the adjustment. There is a hide/reveal button already in the adjustment pane. There is the ability to turn the layer on/off. Why would anyone need this?How do I correct this? 

I cannot open my 3D file. I remember that it was working about 1-2 months ago, but I don't know why I can't use it now. I use PS 2020

I have problem trying to extract photoshop 2018 with my win rar.if keeps asking me for password to extract the files .please help me 

This is rather trivial, but dId you notice that the Blend if sliders always skip the value 64?  I don't have a Windows machine, so this is macOS. 

I'm really confused as to what happened here, just normal text for a community paper header I whipped up, and a rectangle shape, but I noticed it translated in the exported .png too. Even stranger, there's an alternate text version that is otherwise identical at the top that doesn't feature this degradation.  Not a huge upset to my design, just going to swap the text out in the other drafted version, but really curious as to why/how it happened???? [photo is of psd file not png export]

Hello,  Until yesterday, when I used crop/generative expand, the image would not be changed in any way. The only change was the filled area where I extended the crop. All of a sudden, a decent amount of the image is being distorted as well. How can I change back to where the original image is not altered in any way and only the cropped portion is added.  I read about adding layers, but I'm a novice and don't know how to do this. I tried, but couldn't figure it out.  Any help would greatly be appreciated.  Thank You

Photoshop is the lease intuitive program. Nobody wants jagged edges. With photoshop, you're going to get jagged edges. Idiotic. 

Hello, I'm using the latest PS update 26.7 but I'm not sure when this happened - before or after the update as I haven't used the software for about 2 weeks.When I open any image no matter how big or small and I go to the top "Image" menu and select "Image size" a pop-up window appears saying "Could not update smart object files because of a program error." What smart objects? I'm literally opening a simple image in PS and not doing anything else but wanting to resize it and this appears. It has never happened to me before so I'm not sure what to do about it. Image>Canvas size works but Image size doesn't.

Situation: ANY layered file, no matter the size or file type. TIFF, PSD, PSB hangs at 99% while saving for a very long time. Whether saving back to Lightroom or saving to ANY drive. It happens with files I've created from scratch, it happens with photos that come from Lightroom. My drives that I've tested: M.2 system drive, Samsung 850 Evo SSD, External G-Drive USB-C, NAS storage system. ALL of them do the same thing. System Specs:Intel i7-6900k 3.2 GHz 8-coreASUS X99 Deluxe II Board128GB Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4-3000Samsung 850 Evo (1TB) used as a scratch diskSamsung 960 Evo NVMe M.2 SSD (1TB) used as system drive10TB USB-C G-Drive (used for storage)NVIDIA GeForce 1080ti GPU (x2) Every other application I have runs amazing on my PC. Cinema4D? Runs great. OneCapture? Runs amazing. Davinci Resolve? Amazing. Gaming? All amazing. Lightroom? Amazing. Indesign? Runs well. This is STRICTLY a PHOTOSHOP issue and not my operating system (up-to-date Windows 10 Ho

I received a request as a YouTuber from a supposed Abobe employee. The mail is without a signature and therefore does not seem serious to me. Can anyone tell me if this can be the email address of a real Adobe employee: kim.lewis@adobesupport.online Thank you

Been searching but haven't found answers.   How Do I Change Save / Save As Default from PSD to JPG in Photoshop CC?   These are my steps:   - Editing a RAW file in ACR - Then open it in Photoshop to do more edits - Save/Save As...   Photoshop defaults to PSD. I've read other discussions that's because Photoshop will default to original file format. But this is a RAW file, not a PSD file to begin with.   My question is how do I change this default to JPG instead of PSD? It's annoying having to use the mouse to go down the drop down menu and scroll through to find JPG to save the file. I move through keyboard shortcus, so stopping to use the mouse just do select JPG really slows me down.   Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hi, Does anyone know how I can disable these 'Discover' pop up thats are now appearing in Photoshop please? I had a very simple task to do in Photoshop, make an image greyscale, close image. As soon as I converted the image a video popup started playing square in the middle of the screen, over my image telling me how I can rotate the canvas and not my head. Shortly after im getting some Kickstart your Project in the corner of my screen as attached image.  Is there a way to turn off all these 'helpful' tutorials? I have rich tool tips turned off but this seems to be a different annoyance. These pop ups have literally just delayed me working for 15 minutes trying to find a way to disable them.  Thanks.

I have a legit Photoshop CS6. My PC got hit by a virus, the whole screen went white, and I had to reinstall Windows 10 and all my applications, but now CS6 is not letting me activate, tellling me that it is already in used in max allowed PC, which is not true. It was on my son's laptop and my same pc. My son has deactivated his. Now it is not activated on any any other device at all and I can't activate it on my same PC that it was on  a few days ago.

HiIve only just noticed that when in Camera Raw Filter from photoshop (24.0.0) when i look at the highlight clipping (red) its not actually using 255,255,255 is pure white for clipping like i assumed. I know this as i have a colour on the screen which is 250,251,255 and CFR is telling me this is highlight clipped. I only need to know pure 255,255,255 for clipping, how can i change this?No wonder when i setup Photoshop to show clipping for pure white, the results were different to CRF>Hope that makes sence, Thanks for any explaination. 

Hello!I’m using Photoshop on iPad (latest version) with Apple Pencil 1 and iPad 10th gen.In all other apps like Procreate and Notes, everything works perfectly.But in Photoshop, when I draw, the line is visible only after I lift the Pencil, not during the stroke.I already tried reinstalling the app, switching brushes, resetting settings, turning off finger touch, and restarting the iPad.Please help!

Hi all, I have had this issue before, and i didn't figure out how to fix it, i just went t a different software, but I am having issues with layer masks. I am using photoshop on the web, and when I apply a layer mask (in this case I hit remove background and that was literally it. open the file, open another file to use as the new background. remove background on first picture. bam. not good) then it becomes extremely pixelated in some places. Not all of the mask even!  there is no way to get rid of it with the add/subract from layer mask, and I am not experienced enough to try other work flows. My laptop struggles to run the app version, hence why I am on the web-based one, but when I do use the app it has never had any of these issues (other then occassionally making my computer crash out) I am using microsoft edge if that makes any difference. The first picture below shows how the layer mask has come out. The second image shows the difference in pixalation in these areas (

So I receive templates from someone using PS CC 2021, same as me, Adobe Fonts, same as me, working on Mac, same as me, but everytime I click the text to edit, it changes it's style, I can't find a workaround for this problem and is driving me crazy, here's an example, original on the left, how it looks as soon as I click on it on the right. It only happens with certain fonts, in this case it's Montserrat from Adobe Fonts.     [Identical issue posted on 12 August and 17 August merged by moderator. Please post once.]

Llevo más de 40 minutos buscando la bendita barra y estoy a punto de golpear a alguien... no sé porque hacen las cosas tan complicadas de encontrar o activar. Por si se los preguntan, mi laptop es compatible, por que hace 2 meses atrás la utilizaba, sólo que dejé de pagar la licencia.... y este mes de mayo compré una licencia de 1 año, así que por ende DEBERÍA funcionar en mi equipo. Ando desesperado

Hello! I often have to create multiple artboards in photoshop, and I was asking myself if there wasn't a script or plugin allowing to create multiple artboards from a .CSV or excel file.I am wasting so much time at creating art board at the right size, and naming them after their dimensions: I am aware something like this is possible in illustrator, from what I have seen in another thread:https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/question-creating-artboards-at-different-sizes-from-csv-file/m-p/13335388The same would exist for photoshop ?Thank you for your upcoming answers

Hi,So I've been trying to do a mockup and when I went to use the displacement tool to apply my displacement map, I couldn't? The tool itself is there, but I not able to apply the map. Have somebody else dealt with this problem?FYI, I use Photoshop CC 2025, in BrazilThis is what the window for displace looks like now, so many things are missing  :')If anybody has a solution for this I would be immensely grateful!  

Click & drag delay in Photoshop when using Huion Kamvas display tablet.Using Windows 10, PS 2025, Huion Kamvas Plus 22" (GS2202).Drawing works fine, but when I try to do the following actions there is a significant delay: - Using sliders such as hue/saturation. When I click & drag the slider to make a subtle change, it does nothing. But when I drag it out really far, it starts working. - Using transform tool. When I click & drag the edge of the transform box to make a subtle change, it does nothing. But when I drag it out really far, it starts working. - When I try to turn on/off layers too quickly, it will turn off/on multiple layers at once.  This is a weird one. As you can imagine, as an artist these issues really impede my process! Any tips or suggestions? Thank You -M-
