In Photoshop, I can only zoom in using the touchpad if I hold down the alt key. If I do the gesture without the alt key, the image only moves left or right. If I hold down the alt key, the "actual" gesture (swiping in one direction with two fingers) also zooms. Is there a way to set the touchpad gestures so that the image only moves when you swipe in one direction with two fingers and the image zooms in when you zoom in with your fingers on the touchpad without pressing the alt key for any gesture?In the browser or other applications, zooming in works even without holding down the alt key.Win 11Ps-version: 25.12

My entire computer consistently crashes when I try to use “Select and mask”, Some of my photoshop files have even been corrupted if the file I tried to mask was in them. Im not sure what has been causing this. I’ve tried to update my drivers, my gpu, cleared my cache, allocated more RAM space for photoshop to use, and nothing seems to work. Any guesses as to what could be causing this? I am not extremely savvy when It comes to hardware optimization, but I couldn’t find any similar issues online to help fix this problem.

Photoshop 2026 will not open any JPEG files. I receive a message that says “Could not open “file name” because the file was not found.” Yes, the files are there and are uncorrupted– Preview and other other apps have no problem with the JPEGs. It does not matter if the files are local, on a drive, or wherever. Also, photoshop has no issue opening PNGs, PSDs, or really any other normals file formats. I recently updated, reinstalled, restarted, and deleted photoshop 2025 from my machine to try to remedy the problem. I’m working on an iMac 2020 with Sequoia 15.7.3As a work around, I’ve been opening the JPGs in Preview and copying and pasting them into a Photoshop file, but I’d prefer a real fix over this method.

My father recently passed away. He was known here as JJMack. This community was a big part of his life. After retiring from IBM, this is where he would spend a great deal of his time trying to help people as best he could. His strength was figuring out how things work, communication was not.  Despite this, he was able to amass 38,147 Posts, 9206 Likes, and most importantly 3437 solutions.  I'm sure his posts will live on and continue to help people. I work with Photoshop professionally myself and occasionally will research a problem I am having only to find a solution posted here by my father. In the future it will be bitter sweet when this happens again. Goodbye, world.

Why do my Photoshop files look like this? When I save the file out it looks correct, but in Photoshop it looks off. Way off! 

Images are opened for editing directly from bridge. then editied in Photoshop. Once a an image is open in Photoshop, the application freezes . There is no notice that it is not responding.

Estou com um bug no Photoshop relacionado às pranchetas. Ao criar, duplicar ou editar pranchetas, passam a aparecer áreas brancas/transparente fora delas, como se o canvas estivesse sendo exibido/renderizado de forma incorreta. Antes isso não acontecia no mesmo arquivo e fluxo de trabalho. Já testei reinstalação, reset de preferências, atualização do Photoshop e do macOS, e o problema continua, sem mensagem de erro.

Hello, Other than disconnecting from the internet, How can I  turn off Photoshop's "Generative AI features."

Good afternoon, I’ve been experiencing some issues trying to save my ‘Layer Style’ into my Creative Cloud System. Whenever I try to create a new Layer Style, I receive this message:  I’ve tried to fix this by following various methods I found here, or even on Youtube. But none of these methods seemed to work. These styles keep saving on my computer, and if I open the same document the style remains. However, I am afraid of ever closing or deleting a specific document in fear of losing this style. For reference, I have a Windows Computer, and all my adobe apps are currently updated. I’ve also already switched from ‘read-only’ to ‘read-write’ as far as I am aware, but for some reason it still doesn’t work.I’ve legit have no clue what I can do. Is there anyone that can help me fix this on my Photoshop? 

attempting to use art history brush.  When I pick a particular brush style, it converts the tool to the smug tool.

I have been having this problem for a few months. I am using Mac OS Ventura 13.2.1 and Photoshop 2023 or Lightroom Classic. I have long used presets but now, after I save one, when I come back to it the next time, the saved preset does not retain any of the settings. I tried uninstalling Photoshop 2023, rebooting, then re-install Photoshop 2023. The presets still don't retain settings. I've also tried deleting my P5000 printer from the system settings, and then re-installing my Epson driver. Again, doesn't fix the problem. I also tried printing from Safari and made a preset in Safari and this one does work as it is supposed to. If I then switch back to Photoshop, the preset created while in Safari works properly in Photoshop. I tried one more time to create a preset while in Photoshop, but it still will not work.

I use a general hard brush to draw and for the eraser I use a general hard brush as well. After some time the brush switches automatically to the eraser tool. I press "b" to switch back to the brush. As soon as my pen touches the Cintiq 22 inch it switches back to the eraser. I switch to another brush and the problem remains. If I save and restart PS the problem is gone. But it eventually comes back ...  Mac OS 12.6PS 2023 24.0.0

Hello Adobe Photoshop Team,I would like to report a long-standing issue that has affected Photoshop for several years.Issue DescriptionThe problem occurs when working with a duplicated image layer.Steps to ReproduceOpen an image in Photoshop. Duplicate the image layer. Select the duplicated layer. Apply one or more of the following commands: Image → Auto Tone Image → Auto Color Image → Auto Contrast Verify that the color correction has been applied successfully. Perform another operation on the same duplicated layer, such as: Straightening the image. Scaling or transforming the layer. Expected BehaviorThe Auto Tone, Auto Color, or Auto Contrast adjustments should remain applied after any transform or straightening operation performed on the same layer.Actual BehaviorAs soon as the duplicated layer is straightened, scaled, or transformed, the image unexpectedly reverts to its original colors. The Auto adjustments are lost, as though they had never been applied, while the transform i

I have a JPG that I’m slicing up for email html. When I save for web it only saved one slice as my selected JPG output format, the other slices saved as PNG.I’ve tried selecting all slices before save for web. I’ve tried selecting all slices in the save for web window. Nothing seems to enforce my intended output format of JPG.Also, I have no idea why it’s choosing PNG. This image started life as a JPG. There is no transparency at all. This issue has been plaguing me for months!here’s an old post on the subject... 

As the title says, when I attempt to draw in Photoshop, my brush lags significantly in a way that is impossible to work with. When moving the pen around at an average speed, the line appears behind it in short bursts with a few seconds between. This began about a week ago although I had not opened Photoshop for a while beforehand. This is only happening with Photoshop and only with my Cintiq. There is no lag when using the Cintiq with another drawing software, and no lag when using my older Intuos with Photoshop. I draw with fairly simple brushes on lower resolution canvases.My specs:Laptop- MSI GS65 Stealth 9SEOS- Windows 11Tablet- Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 PGraphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060CPU: Intel i7 The main things I have tried since the problem began:- Updated Photoshop from 2024 to 2025- Updated Wacom driver- Updated NVIDIA driver- Made sure GeForce overlay was turned off- Made sure Photoshop was still set to use the NVIDIA card- Made sure I had a decent amount of free

my Adobe photoshop web is not working. When I drag and drop a photo it says "we couldn't open your document. Please try reloading the page or signing into another account" I've tried reloading a bunch of times, I have no other account. My video card drivers are up to date, and all the other stuff suggested online. Please help

I have a MAC operating system. During the previous Photoshop update, I canceled the update after five hours of updating. As a result, the entire program was removed from my computer, which means that I lost all actions and Brush tools. Of course, I spent several hours reinstalling the brush tools and actions. The whole thing happened again during the last update. I contacted Adobe for help. An Adobe employee connected to my computer, found no errors, but unfortunately the issue happened again when he canceled the update and everything had to be reinstalled. Does anyone else have similar problems? If anyone has, how did they solve them, if that was even possible. In all likelihood, Adobe has problems, and then we customers are wasting hours trying to get the program back or upgrade it with all actions, Brush tool.Branko Teršek
