Questions

Firstly, the conversation type should have a 'feedback' option. I do not believe mine falls under Discussion or Bug. It might fall under Idea, but I do not think that adequately describes what I want to categorize this post as.    1. Installing the new version of photoshop does not appear to have kept any of my settings. This has not previously been a problem when updating to a new version.   - This is valuable to me because I have my workspace set up the way I like it and am comfortable with.    2. The new color picker is not intuitive. I cannot seem to get the colors I want with it. I would like an option to use the legacy version. A tutorial on how the new one works after the update would not go amiss.   - This is valuable to me because being able to select the correct color is somewhat essential to my job.    3. Updating erased file associations with photoshop. I had to tell PSD files to open with photoshop again. This has not previ

My ADP Pro v3 extension couldn't be loaded by Photoshop 2023 24.0.1 on macOS Monterey 12.5.1 (non-M chip). The error message is "The ADP Pro v3 extension could not be loaded because it was not properly signed.". I have followed the Adobe instruction at https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/extension-not-properly-signed.html#reinstall-extensions (uninstall and reinstall PS and the extension) but the issue remains. Please help.Thanks! Frank

I really hate it. I "know" it can be changed to white, but I can't NOT find a place in the software to do it! Can anyone else tell me how to get this done. I can not tell you how I hate opening up that software to it all being black.

Photoshop Windows OperationsI created an operation for dng files that ends with Save as .jpg. Unfortunately, the effect is overwriting individual photos under the same name, the effect is one photo in the catalog. With other operations that end with the same command, all photos appear in the catalog under their own names.

So about 2 hours ago i accidently clicked don't save in my adobe photoshop 2025 project. I want to recover it but I have tried all ways and none of them work.  Is there any way to recover the 'Don't Save' file?there must be a way because when i created a new project it should automatically save for me right theres no way it doesnt. can anybody help me please this is very important to me

Does Photoshop have a pref that lets me disable panning via my mouse's touch surface? (Does Illustrator?)

I have a jpeg that is 42 x 56 inches 72dpi and I need to produce a high quality print at a much smaller size of 2 x 2.6 inches 72dpi. How do I reduce this large file without losing quality. When I do it , it becomes very pixelated. Is there a way to reduce image size without pixelation? I don't care how big the file size is, it's the image size I want to reduce. The purpose of this exercise is to produce a very much smaller photographic print. It is NOT for web design. Thanks in advance

Hi All, Never seen this in all my years using PS. With the new update (one version back and the latest) when I select a layer and "convert to smart object", the image disappears. Specifically I am pasting images into a predefined shape. I convert them to smart objects when I want to move them around easier or rasterize into a final composition. Not sure what is happening. I researched looking for answers and it doesn't seem anyone else is having this issue?Thanks for any help!Chris

Issue: Photoshop version: 26.4.1OS: Sequia 15.3.1Steps to reproduce:Create a gif using the video timeline mode (30 fps). In my case, I typically use Import > Video Frames to Layers, but the same exact thing happens when I import images to layers and create a video timeline from it.Change nothing for timeline speed (leave at default).Export this gif using the Save for Web (legacy). Options chosen don't appear to matter here. Reopen exported gif in PhotoshopFrame delay from exported gif using the video timeline switches between 0.03 and 0.07 secondsOpen gif in browser - gif looks very choppy due to inconsistent frame rate. Expected result: Frame delay from exported gifs made with Video Timeline mode should retain 0.05 FPS when re-opening in Photoshop.Actual result: Frame delay is 0.03 and 0.07 alternating. Gif looks choppy when playing. Gif must be reimported into Photoshop, manually changed to frame delay of 0.05, then re-exported. Appears this has been an is

When using the 2025 PS version, the value in the feather dialog box has changed the way it behaves.In the 2024 version and all the previous, when entering i.e. 5px. and clicking the down arrow, the value changes to 4.9. This is very important for me as in many ocasions, if I need 0.7px I will just hit 1 followed by thee strokes on the down arrow. In the 2025 version, this changes and with the arrow, up or down,  goes to whole numbers (4px 3px 2px...) Has anyone experienced the same? Any solution will be most appreciated.Thanks!

Hi allIf I try to copy one of my text layers I get the error:Could not make a new layer from the selection because the pixels in a type layer cannot be modified without first rasterizing the layer.If I try to move it using the arrow keys I get:Could not nudge the selection because the pixels in a type layer cannot be modified without first rasterizing the layer.This is a recurring but inconsistent issue - when I close the file and reopen it I can copy and move the layer just fine. Any idea why I this happens?Thanks for your time(Using Photoshop 19.1.3)

It would be much faster and simpler to have a right-click option on a layer to “Export Layer As…” with common formats like JPEG, PNG, etc. Unless that already exists somewhere? 

I need to retrieve scale and rotation information changes of a smart object in a video animation using a script.How can I do this?

I just downloaded Photoshop 2024. I want to print a 5x7 photo. I have not printed in many months. For some unknown reason I cannot get a borderless print. And I do not see any setting for selecting borderless prints.I am using Mac OS Ventura 13.5.2. My printer is a HP OfficeJet Pro 8210. I just installed the latest drivers from HP. In this past I have been able to print borderless photos using this computer (Mac Studio) and this printer.Thanks,Edward Volchok

Whenever I use File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack, one image loads, then another layer titled, "load layers" loads and the screen flashes black and white. I have to use task manager to quit PS. PS, my drivers, and Windows are all up to date. I've tried it with different images and different folders; same result. I've also tried loading them from a Bridge stack; same result. Photoshop version 24.3Windows 10 Home Version 22H2, OS Build 19045.2728

Hi. I'm just going through this error when exporting a png. When I apply a layer in app it works just fine, but when I export it moves from the spot where it was suposed to be. Here is an exemple:  The first one is the exported png, the second one is in app preview. The only solution I found was to convert to smart object each gradient, but this is overwork. Imagine doing it for fifity layouts a month, not to mention when I forget to do it and find out I'll have to redo all the process. I already tried the Classic Gradient option but with no success. Any ideas?

I save my project files with adobe cloud and install all my apps on a different storage drive (Disk D) including adobe softwares. When opening PS, it takes my 20gb of my storage drive where my OS (Disk C) is only installed. When using it, 100gb free in my Disk C are gone and turns it to NTFS and makes me unable to save my file locally, or even as cloud save/storage because of PS. Despite use the other drive, Disk D for cloud storage and scratch disk, temp files etc, this still happened. Already purge my files and even remove scratch disk options are now gone. Still, it's not enough to save locally or on cloud.

The following errors occurs in PS 26.6.1 and the previous version when I attempt to execute Camera Raw Filter with or without a Smart Filter:              Could not update smart object files because of a program error.              Could not update Camera Raw Filter because of a program error.This does not happen with many of the other filters, like Smart Sharpen, Noise, etc.File size could be the issue:The error can be reproduced with images over 1 or 2 GB, but NOT on small files.Restarting the program will sometimes work.Restarting the computer fixes the problem temporarily, but it eventually comes back.Computer Info:Windows 10, 58 GB RAM available to PS, NVidia 2070 Super 8 GB Graphics Card, 300GB available scratch disk space. 

This is a section of a 200 year old quilt.  In some areas you can see the stitching, but not in most areas- it's just too faint right now.  Is there a technique in Photoshop that would bring out the stitching that is there, but is too faint for the eye to see?  If so, could you please provide the name of the tool or technique so I can research this?  This is a question far past my Facebook ability. Thanks for your help! 

Hello everyone,I'm seeking help with a persistent issue regarding Photoshop automation via JSX scripting.My goal: To load an .atn file (action set) into the Actions panel, run an action, and then save a PSD file. To avoid duplicates in the Actions panel, I need to delete the pre-existing action set (specifically action_set_atn) before reloading it.The problem: Despite numerous attempts, I'm unable to reliably delete the action set action_set_atn using a JSX script. Every time the script runs, a new duplicate of the action set is created in Photoshop's Actions panel.Photoshop Version: Adobe Photoshop 26.7.0What I've tried (and failed):app.unload("action_set_atn"): The standard high-level command. It doesn't remove duplicates.executeAction commands for deletion (ID: "Dlt "): I've tried various configurations of this low-level command, attempting to target the set by name and by index.executeAction command to reset all action sets (ID: "Rset"): Even this drastic operation, which should th

Photoshop keeps changing the UI language to Finnish, no matter what I try to do to keep it in English.  My creative cloud app is in English, the default install language is set as English, I even changed my windows to English in trying to resolve this. I have uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop MANY times, and although when I first boot up the program, it is correctly in English (Finnish doesn't even show up in the UI settings as an option), the second time I open PS, it invariably pops up in Finnish.  Can someone please troubleshoot this for me? It's incredibly frustrating, as I have always used PS in English, and trying to parse the options in a new version, where things are not necessarily where I'm used to them being, and it really slows down my workflow. I'm on Windows 11 Home 24H2, using the desktop app version 25.12.1
