Hello,I'm having a banding problem in Photoshop.It doesn't matter if I use 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit brush or gradient.I have banding, even though I didn't have it before.I saved an image and sent it to see if it was a hardware issue, but no, the banding is clearly visible even on other screens or phones.So the problem is definitely Photoshop.I reset it to default, but nothing changed.

I've been doing focus stacks for a while now.  I can't remember if the last one I did was before this most recent release or not. I import the ARW images (sony RAW files) into Lightroom.  I select the set of images and Open as Layers in PhotoshopPhotoshop opens all the files, each its own layer.  I select all the layers and Select Auto-Align Layers.  Using the default, which is AutoWhen it completes I select Auto-Blend Layers.  Using the default, which is Stack Images PS churns for a while.  NORMALLY it creates a new layer with the blend of all the other layers. Now suddenly its not creating this new layer. I can't simply Save As all the layers as a TIFF file, its far too large I noticed as I was clicking through things to make sure I typed the correct verbiage up above, when I selected Auto-Blend a second time, I brought up the dialog box I'd expect, but its also got a Progress Bar behind that and its just sitting at the

Dear Support Team,Good morning.I would like to report several issues with Photoshop 2025 that arose after the latest update:Failure to Launch from Other Platforms: When attempting to edit an image from InDesign, Photoshop no longer opens automatically. Additionally, the software now takes 5 to 10 minutes to open any image, which is significantly slower than before.Error When Saving Files with Smart Objects: The program displays an error message stating that it’s an internal issue, preventing me from saving files containing Smart Objects.System Specifications:Processor: Intel i5-12450RAM: 16GBGraphics Card: NVIDIA RTX 2050(These specs should meet the software’s requirements.)I appreciate your assistance in resolving these issues. Please let me know if further details are needed.Best regards,Prezados,Bom dia.Gostaria de relatar alguns problemas que surgiram com o Photoshop 2025 após a última atualização:Falha ao inicializar em outras plataformas: Quando solicito a edição de uma imagem pe

No ilustrator, as guias sempre estão bloqueadas. Poderia existir uma opção para decidirmos, se as guias ficam sempre bloqueadas assim que iniciarmos o projeto, ou desbloqueadas. FIM

This is the second time now where i can't open a project because the current file isn't compatible with the current version of PS, which is bizarre because i i literally made my most recent project WITH the CURRENT version of PS. Can somebody please help me? I've been working on this damn thing for close to 10 hours, and this is the secind time that i had to START OVER, i do NOT want to start over again.

Hi everyone,I’ve been working on some sports-themed social media graphics lately and would love some input from experienced designers here. I'm particularly interested in making dynamic visuals for live sports promotions—like match countdowns, team lineups, and real-time highlight templates. What are some of your go-to techniques or tools in Photoshop for this kind of design work? Do you rely more on templates, or do you build everything from scratch? I’ve been creating graphics for a sports streaming site I help manage, [link removed by mod] which offers live match coverage. Eye-catching visuals really help drive engagement, so I’m always looking to improve the designs. Looking forward to learning from the community—thanks in advance!

Due to the varying resolution and size of each image, after using the code below, some images may appear very large or very small, and even the coordinates and free transformation may differ.How can I maintain the consistent width, height, and free transformation of the image after replacing its content? Thank you again.#target photoshop var theFiles = File.openDialog("Please select a file", "*.psd;*.tif;*.jpg", false); // Replace Smart Object contents var idplacedLayerReplaceContents = stringIDToTypeID("placedLayerReplaceContents"); var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor(); var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null"); desc3.putPath(idnull, new File(theFiles)); // Pass the new file path to the action var idPgNm = charIDToTypeID("PgNm"); desc3.putInteger(idPgNm, 1); executeAction(idplacedLayerReplaceContents, desc3, DialogModes.NO);

I must have missed the memo; When did clicking somewhere *gestures wildly* on the Layers Window activate some kind of zoom for the current document? What is exactly and how do I avoid thise seemly annoying feature in the future?  

I have issues with Photoshop not showing correct colors of the photo. The image is desaturated. When I open "Liquify" window inside app it shows correct colors.  I have Photoshop version 26.6. This is not happening with older version 22.2. Image in the liquify window of the Photoshop v26.6 matches colors of the same image opened in Photoshop v22.2.I have calibrated monitor, checked options for color settings and profiles. I tried disabling "Use Graphics Processor". The only difference with this setting is that the colors are desaturated inside the "liquify" window too.I'm working on a Mac mini, M4 Pro, Sequoia 15.5.How can I solve this problem?

There seems to be an issue with the workspace and documents in Photoshop 26.7. There is now a slider on the right of the documents/frame.  No matter what size one is zoomed in on,  the image bounces around frequently with an extended black workspace background jumping out.  I spoke with Adobe support and they looked into this on my computer and suggested I make a 'wish' report.  I am mentioning it here as the form I was directed to wasn't helpful. Please stabilize the documents by removing the slider from the frame.

Hello! Everytime i use Photoshop it tend to freeze quite often wether it's in the main menu and editing and it's just unusable in general. I've tried reseting my preferences and giving it more RAM but nothing works and i am not quite sure where to go next. Here are some information about my Photoshop Version along my PC Specs.Photoshop Version - v26.7CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800XRAM: 48 GBGPU: NVIDIA Geforce RTX 3060OS: Windows 11 Pro If you know something that could fix my issues please let me know! 

While working, the following happens, infrequently:1) The canvas area shows the first screen (the one showing the most recent files; tools bar, layer bar, all that stuff is still on screen); sometimes it becomes stuck like that, "not responding", won't even close from the task manager, needing a system restart;2) If it doesn't freeze like that, then the canvas comes back, but the open gl features a disabled (it shows "Could not complete your request because it only works with OpenGL enabled documents windows" when trying to rotate the canvas for example);  This issue persisted on two completely different laptops (one with a GTX 1080, Windows 10 and now on a RTX 5080, Windows 11). The two consistencies between the two is the drawing tablet, a Huion Kanvas 13, and my files.For the latter:File size: roughtly 8000x5000 pixelsLayers: over 40Mode: CYMK 8bit/Channels Troubleshooting so far:- Enabled the RTX 5080 in the Nvidia Control Panel (for Photoshop sniffer.exe too),

What is the different between these two? 

Once people are detected there is no "People" option to select thuimbnails of each person. I have tried every suggestion to no avail. Any ideas?

Anyone know the degree information when manually adjusting the object using Adaptive Wide Angle filter. Adobe appears to claim there is no reference to alignment. Gives me the perception this run contrary to personal experience. Which leads me to question why a manual tweak is necessary. Once a reference line is drawn, the filter should follow the line as a point of reference.PS 26.6 Win 11

Hi all - when I set up a new document I can't use CMYK if "Artboards is checked. However, I can convert to CMYK after the document is created - is there any reason for this?  

Hi,Complete newcomer to PS.When I hover over an icon I get a pop-out offering me the options to 'Learn More' or watch a 'Quick Video'.

I'm hoping the info and tutorials will be useful. PS 26.6.1MacOS 15.5.0 Can anyone suggest what the issue might be? Thanks in advance.

I've been experiencing this for a while but only just got round to posting it.  I'm running photoshop 2023 24.0.1 on a macbook pro 2017 2.3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5 Its a really annoying bug where if I use a keyboard shortcut, sometimes photoshop doesn't register that I've pressed the shortcut key. For example I will select something on a layer by cmd clicking that layer in the layer panel. Then on a new layer when I hit the g key to bring up the paintbucket tool photoshop doesn't register that I've used a shortcut, I'll have to press it again. It happens randomly and with various keyboard shortcuts, but its really frustrating.   Any tips/help?

In the new Photoshop, the Generative AI model has changed. The quality has dropped drastically, and this has become a disaster for my work.This is the original image:This is photoshp 2024:And this is Photoshop 2025:As you can see from the examples, the difference is simply enormous! The new Photoshop just can't handle texture generation. It's hard to understand how something could be made this poorly, and there’s no way to adjust or configure it. 

 so i edited each frame of all the layers and timeline to delete the background so that i could overlay the gif in the video.  it plays back fine in photoshop.  but the exported image shows remnants from the previous frames.  as it continues to play, some of the frames are removed.  i checked the timeline and clicked each frame and looked at the layers and it only had one layer per frame.  i used the export > save for web legacy.

In Photoshop 2025 for Mac (latest PS and Mac OS updates have been installed), I get the following error message when I use the Trim command "Could not complete the Trim command because of a program error (edcd3b.337)" or use the Canvas Size command "Could not complete the Canvas Size command because of a program error (edcd3b.337)". I have reviewed all of the Adobe "Learn how to fix" suggestions, as well as many other video suggestions (primarily Performance and Technology Preview settings). Nothing so far has fixed this issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I can print from Photoshop to my Epson P700 but I cannot change the color or color mode settings. After about an hour on a chat with an Adobe tech we determined the problem was some kind of incompatibility between Photoshop and the Mac OS. I can't find anything anywhere that addresses this. As of now, I have a fairly expensive printer that, with a bag of concrete and a chain, would make a decent boat anchor. Is this just another example of Apple abandoning the creative user market that helped define the brand?
