Ridiculous levels of frustration.Alt-click has stopped selecting area of image when using the clone stamp. Any image, any layer and in images with ony background layer. I am using a yoga 12 with wacom digitizer, Win 10 x64, i5 with 8gb Ram Problem occurred previously and a rollback of an apparently unrelated software installation cured it. Have tried (as per plethora of suggestions): reset toolreset preferencesuninstall recent software x3reinstall Photoshop CCin Clone source box "clipped" is selected but layer title does not appear when trying to select. Brush dynamics set to off target does appear when alt-clicking but on trying to subsequently clone error message pops up "Could not use the clone stamp because the area to be cloned could not be defined. (Alt click to define a source point)"Any other ideas??? All assistance greatly appreciated.

Using either Beta or the latest version of Photoshop, the Save for Web feature is sometimes there, but mostly not. It might be there for the first image, but after that, there’s a pop-up “...system cannot find the path specified”. Using ctr/alt/shift/save doesn’t open the dialog box and  it’s missing in the dropdown menu.  Windows 11

I use a macbook pro, OS version 15.0.1. Adobe Photoshop 26..0.0   In adobe, when i try to do an AI generative fill i get the error messag "We've encountered an issue and can't complete your request at this time. Please try again later."   I tried a different internet connection, still no luck. It's been like this for two days - since the last update.   Thanks.

I need to update a poster from 2016. I used a lot of PostScript fonts because they were industry standard. I have Photoshop (Mac) version 27.6.0. I open the psd file and get the prompt about some text layers need to be updated. I click “No.” and proceed to go to the text to see what font it was that I need to swap to an OpenType. I cannot, for the life of me, find the option to show the fonts missing in the psd file. I see the “warning sign” in the layer menu, but it doesn’t tell me what the font was.“Manage Missing Fonts” does nothing when I click on it. There’s no menu/submenu, nothing. From doing some searching, it was revealed that “Photoshop doesn’t keep the name of the original font, it substitutes it with the default font.” You forced us to switch from PostScript fonts (didn’t even offer us compensation for the thousands we spent on industry standard fonts, but instead jacked up the price of CreativeCloud) and you don’t have functionality in the app to tell me what the font was

CMD+C stops working intermittently when copying layers in Photoshop — keyboard focus lossThe problem: CMD+C randomly fails to copy selected layers. The failure is immediately noticeable by audio feedback — Photoshop plays a different sound when the copy fails compared to a successful copy. When copy fails, subsequent CMD+V produces no result. The issue happens very frequently and is reliably reproducible.The problem appears to be directly related to keyboard focus loss. Switching focus to another application and returning to Photoshop usually fixes it temporarily. Sometimes switching focus between panels within Photoshop itself also helps — but not always, which suggests the focus loss behavior is inconsistent.Environment:Adobe Photoshop 27.5.0 (2026) macOS 26.4.1 Apple M2 Max, 32 GB RAM Two external SDR displays Plugins loaded: Lumenzia 11.9.4, StreamDeck Plugin 2.2.4, CC Libraries, Share PanelSteps to reproduce:Open a multi-layer PSD document Select one or more layers in the Layers p

i use this tool a lot and have experienced issue over last couple of months. I selct tool, then as normal start clicking over and image to make selection. The selction points I make then dissappear and i have to start again. usually the same issue repeats 2-3 times, teh new ai box appears every time, then it will work.My PS is alays up to date as is my operation system.I have two desk tops,  a Ryzen chip at home office, a Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 265 (2.40 GHz) at Work office , boteh with GeForce RTX cards and 32 GB of Ram.I have been using Photoshop since v.5.0 and know what I’m doing with the program.

I can create a border around my image using Select then selecting Edit/stroke and my image gets the required border.When I click on print my image comes up but without the border?What can I do please?  Is there anyway I can have the border happen automatically.   I’ve only just started to have this problem, I used to get a border all the time when I clicked on print.Your assistance would be appreciated thanks  

No pixels are more than 50% selected. The selection edges will not be visible. Message has re-appearedThis warning was fixed/removed in Version 27.1, however after updating recently it seems to have re-appeared. Is this the case for others. If so is there a fix? This interrupts any automated processing and droplet processing.Thanks Ben

I downloaded the new Photoshop 2026 (v27.0) and the Nano Banana & Flux image models aren't in there when I select a portion of any image, only the Firefly models are still available.  I thought with the new update of Photoshop 2026 (v27.0) that these were now in the regular non beta version now?  Am I wrong about this? Becasue according to this on your webiste (https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/desktop/whats-new/whats-new-in-adobe-photoshop-on-desktop.html) it should be.  I've looked in the settings to see if there is something I have to check in order to enable this feature but i can't find anything.  I'm looking for some advice for how to get this activated so it will appear in my Photoshop 2026 (v27.0).

I have attached a report I compiled after carrying out several tests in an attempt to identify the problem.PLEASE READ THE REPORT Adobe Photoshop 2026 (v27.4.0 and v27.5.0) causes repeated application hangs and, ultimately, a full macOS Kernel Panic on a Mac Pro 7,1 running macOS Sequoia 15.7.5. The same machine runs Photoshop 2025 and Photoshop Beta without any issues. Five crash/hang reports were collected over a single session, showing progressive deterioration culminating in a system-wide crash that forced a hard reboot.The component dynamic-torqnative appears in every single report and is identified as the root cause. This component is the new GPU rendering engine introduced in Photoshop 2026 and is not present in the same form in earlier versions.

After opening, processing and closing a few raw files from Lightroom Classic (15.1.1) in Photoshop (27.3.1), opening another raw file results in error message "there isn't enough room to display this document". My Win11 PC has 100's of GB free on C: (SSD) and D: (HDD) and 64 GB of RAM of which Photoshop is set to use 85%. My graphics card is an RTX 4060 Ti, with 16GB GDDR6.What does ‘not enough ROOM’ really mean? It cannot be disk space or RAM…The only solution is to close and restart Photoshop, which is rather annoying to do every few files.

Ever since the latest update, I will color pick a color using the eyedrop tool but the color wheel does not jump to the selected color. For example, if the last color I had on the color wheel is red and I eyedrop tool a blue color, the colorwheel will stay on the red color even though it says I have blue selected. This makes it hard to mix colors or see where they reside on the wheel. Is there a setting I can turn on or off to fix this? Thank you.

This script is used for ps to automatically zoom to 100% after opening an image.Now I want to add a function: after zooming in 100%, pop up the image size setting dialog box.I'm going to change the width of the image。Thank you very much.setZoom (100); function setZoom( zoom ) { cTID = function(s) { return app.charIDToTypeID(s); }; var docRes = activeDocument.resolution; activeDocument.resizeImage( undefined, undefined, 72/(zoom/100), ResampleMethod.NONE ); var desc = new ActionDescriptor(); var ref = new ActionReference(); ref.putEnumerated( cTID( "Mn " ), cTID( "MnIt" ), cTID( 'PrnS' ) ); desc.putReference( cTID( "null" ), ref ); executeAction( cTID( "slct" ), desc, DialogModes.NO ); activeDocument.resizeImage( undefined, undefined, docRes, ResampleMethod.NONE ); }

I’m trying to use the “Remove Tool” in Photoshop, but keep getting the “could not complete your request due to program error”. I’ve double checked that everything has been updated, signed out and back into my adobe account, deactivated GPU acceleration, reset photoshp preferences, etc.It keeps happening. One time I also got the “can not use this tool because activation failed” Any help would be greatly appreciated. Adobe Photoshop Version: 26.11.5 20260417.r.177 5616ed6  x64 (final, Release)Number of Launches: 47Operating System: Windows 11 64-bitVersion: 11 or greater 10.0.26200.8328System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:10, Stepping:4, AVX2, AVX-VNNI, HybridCPU(6:10), HyperThreadingPhysical processor count: 16Logical processor count: 22Processor speed: 2995 MHzBuilt-in memory: 32213 MBFree memory: 20649 MBMemory available to Photoshop: 24746 MBMemory used by Photoshop: 70 %Crash Handler: AdobeDCX Version: 9.11.1SAM SDK Version: 14.3.2ACP.local Status: - SDK Version: 5.8.2 - C

I've been experiencing a frustrating issue with Photoshop recently. Right after opening the program, it becomes unresponsive. No matter what I click – whether it's a menu, tool, or document – the program acts as if it's frozen. This unresponsiveness lasts for about a minute, after which Photoshop starts to function normally again. This problem doesn't reoccur until I close and reopen the program.I have tried all the solutions suggested on the internet, Adobe forums, and even had a service technician try to fix the problem remotely, but nothing has helped. The issue didn't start until after a certain program update, and unfortunately, reverting to previous versions hasn't resolved the problem. Uninstalling and reinstalling an older version didn't help either.Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? How did you manage to resolve it?This issue is clearly visible in the video that I am attaching.

I drew something by hand and I scanned it onto my computer, I have it in photoshop now and im wondering how do I remove all the white in-between each line manually 

This has been a topic for years, so I can’t fathom why it still happens. When I open an old JPEG and make a few mods and then chose Save As or Save a Copy the creation date changes to the present moment. When I check File Info before saving the creation date is correct.

Is there a way to return to the older color picker? I don’t what this is besides unusable. Thanks for any help. 

Once I finally dared upgrade my PS version and try out the generative fill and generative expand features, I fell in love with this. It is just so perfect for what I do, and my editing workflow. I take photos of indoor dance events without flash. I do not take these photos for the sake of the event organizers, but as a way to make artful images, where I capture the moods, emotions and connective interactions on the dance floor. The dance floor is usually crowded, and I often have distractions in the background that I would rather remove and replace with something less distracting. Or, at the time of taking the shot, a body part of a nearby dancer comes into my frame, covering up a portion of my intended subject. Or, since I am shooting moving targets, there is a need to expand the image on one or more sides to improve the overall composition of the photo.The new generative fill and expand is so perfect for this. I can now do what would have taken a great deal of time before, or in some

Paper selection function seems to print in ordinary absorbent computer paper, even though I select Premium Luster.  When I open the print dialog box again it’s at ordinary computer paper. I'm using PS 2026 on an Epson ET-8500 with a Mac Studio (OS Tahoe). Have tried restart on all items.This just started today. Previously things were working fine.

Erasing on a transparent layer (besides the background layer) doesn’t erase the alpha, but “draws” with the background color. This is an outdated/unwanted result and should be deprecated. All modern illustration apps will erase the alpha regardless of whether transparency is locked for that layer (except the background layer). Otherwise, using the lasso tool to “cut” a layer with locked transparency should fill that area with the background color. As a developer, I find this inconsistency sloppy coding for such a popular app.🤔

I'm using PS and when I wanted to use Reflection removal the object tab is dead or not colored black. It just doesn't work. Can anyone help? I'm using a MAC computer and RAW format.Thanks for the answer and best regards to all.Branko 

I cannot save files in PS Online. I can rename them at the top, but I cannot find where they are located. They are not local or in the cloud. I do have an older Mac that doesnt meet the minimum requirements for using the online service, although the editor works fine. I can work with an image and layers just like the desktop version. There doesn’t seem to be any other issues. However the file will not save and I cannot make any copies either.
