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.

Hi everyone.The code below automatically sets the image to 100% size when it opens, but I later realized that at 350 or 300 dpi, 100% size doesn’t look realistic.Later, I right-clicked the image in Photoshop, selected the Magnifying Glass tool, right-clicked the image again, and viewed it at print size. It still didn’t feel realistic to me. My image is 15 cm, but the print size appears very small. When I measured the image on the screen with a ruler, it wasn’t 15 cm either.How can I modify the code below so that the image width in Photoshop looks and feels the same as the printed width?Thank you.// Call the zoom function from within suspendHistoryactiveDocument.suspendHistory("Set Zoom to 100%", "setZoom(100)");//// Open the image size dialog//sTID = function (s) { return app.stringIDToTypeID(s); };//try {// executeAction(sTID('imageSize'), undefined, DialogModes.ALL);//} catch (e) { if (e.number != 8007) { alert("Line: " + e.line + "\n\n" + e, "Bug!", true); throw (e); } }function

Tried with RAW, jpeg, png. I have “maximize psd file compatibility” set to “always”. Pretty dumbfounded as to how Adobe apps are not only not improving, but actively getting worse. 

My photoshop keeps crashing when I try and open up a new or existing document when I have my pluggable usb 3.0 hub docking station plugged into my computer (that has a windows OS).I had contacted support and we did remote help. We found out that it was the docking station that was causing the issue. However, I need the docking station for my job and hobbies. They told me it wasn’t supported, but it had been working fine for about a year (that I’ve had it) up until yesterday when I opened PS for the first time since the 27.5 update.I did realize after the conversation with the represenative that I was speaking with that I can plug the hub back in after opening photoshop, getting things loaded, and continue to work as normal. However, I shouldn’t have to unplug and plug my dockng station in every time I want to use photoshop since this update.I’m hoping that since it’s only been a couple of days since the update that a patch will come out to resolve this issue. I was told to make a post

Hey everyone, Photoshop 2026 is running as if it’s severely disk-constrained on a machine that has >240 GB of available storage on the startup volume. Performance is unusable, multiple-second delays on tool selection, UI interaction, even basic text editing. Root cause hypothesismacOS APFS reports two distinct storage figures:- diskutil data volume: >59 GB truly free- Finder / macOS storage APIs: >240 GB available (free + purgeable)Purgeable space is APFS-managed storage that macOS can and will reclaim on demand, it is not inaccessible. Apps querying disk space via standard macOS APIs (NSFileManager attributesOfFileSystemForPath) should receive the Finder-inclusive figure (~240 GB). If Photoshop is instead reading the raw diskutil figure (~59 GB), it would incorrectly treat the machine as disk-constrained. Operating environmentHardware: M3 MacBook Air, 24 GB, 1 TB internal SSD (APFS)OS: macOS Tahoe v. 26.4.1Photoshop: v. 27.6.0Scratch disk: startup volume (default)Subscription

I’m attaching a video comparing the Remove Tool results in LrC vs Photoshop. The image is of a photo of a friends daughter playing the viola. The intent is to remove as much as possible the strobe reflection and worn spots on the wood grain.The first part shows rhetorical results in LrC - which does a decent job.The second shows the results from going from Capture One (my main RAW editor/catalog) to Photoshop. It takes several passes of remove tool to get close to what LrC does. The Remove tool in PS used to do a better job. Am I missing something?FYI - I did duplicate the layer in PS, turn it into a Smart Object and use the Remove tool in Camera RAW. Same results as what LrC produced.Thoughts?

Why does GF hew to the color of the central objects. For instance, today, I have an old photo of two people dressed largely in blue. I requested a fill behind of “white curtains,” but the curtains are generated as blue. Why does GF not allow me to choose what colors I want? Why does GF usually misspell words? Why can’t I dictate what will be generated and have GF simply follow directions properly?

When I open Photoshop the complete interface darkens on a new Macbook Pro.  After opening I will open a RAW file which looks normal for a moment the darkens and all adjustment sliders go to zero (0).  The interface is so dark I can't make out wording on the screen.  When I open an existing photo it appears normal for a moment then darkens.  Testing a few changes and when I get the Save window it is so dark I can't read any words.  When I close the file my desk top picture is very dark for 20+/- seconds and then returns to normal.

As a children's photographer, I was able to use backgrounds in the early days of generative fill. Lately, 98 percent of the photos refer to the guidelines. What is the problem? Or can we no longer do anything at all regarding children? Even a prompt from Chat GBT to turn it into a fine-art portrait no longer works, whereas this was possible before.

All of my photoshop files will no longer open. All of the projects just show this blank paper icon now. When I save a new file, it also just turns into this. When I try opening the file within Photoshop, it says the file has been moved and deleted.

How to reinstall Photoshop 10 (I have the 24-digit serial)

I updated photoshop yesterday or the day before to 27.6.0, the latest version. It opened after updating just fine and I used it all day long. Then today, just a fee minutes ago, around 12:50 pm, I opened Photoshop for the first time today and all my history is gone, all the text is tiny, everything seems to be reset and screwed up. Instead of seeing a page of thumbnails of previous files on the Home screen, I get this CRAP in the screenshot below:  I need to know what the heck I can do to restore it and prevent this kind of CRAP from happening again… 

Problem with HDR panorama. When I assembly more  30 captures with size 55 MB in format RAW (from camera Nikon 850) display blacken and computer do restart. I have Intel (R) Core Ultra 7 265K, 64 GB RAM, grafic card NVIDIA GeoForce RTX5050. Do you have somebody experience with this problem?

Good afternoon, I would like to report a strange behaviour in Photoshop. The “Discover” icon (the lightbulb with the blue glowing ring in the top-right corner of the interface) keeps appearing with a highlight effect and overlays other windows inside the application. Here is what happens in more detail: the lightbulb effect remains visible on top of several Photoshop dialogs/windows,the highlight reappears repeatedly, even after I click the lightbulb and close the panel,it becomes quite distracting and feels like it is “stuck” on top of the interface, as if it were a permanent overlay.  I have tried clicking the icon, opening and closing the help/discover panel and then continuing to work, but the effect keeps coming back. As far as I understand, this highlight should only appear occasionally to indicate tips or new features, and not continuously or on top of other windows. This behaviour disrupts the workflow and seems to be a visual bug. Thank you i

[BUG / REGRESSION] Selective Color degraded after latest updateHello,After the latest Photoshop update, the Selective Color adjustment has significantly degraded in terms of precision and usability.Previously, this tool allowed for extremely fine and controlled color corrections, especially when working in specific color ranges (Reds, Neutrals, Blacks, etc.). It was one of the most reliable tools for subtle, professional-grade color grading.After the update, I am experiencing the following issues:• reduced precision in color adjustments• less predictable behavior of sliders• difficulty isolating specific color ranges• overall loss of control compared to previous versionsAs a professional photographer, this tool was a core part of my workflow. In its current state, it is no longer reliable for high-end color work. This is not a minor change — it fundamentally affects color grading quality and consistency.Please confirm whether this is:• an intentional change• a known bug• or a regressio

Every time Adobe launches a new update we seem to continually go through this phase of crashes, instability and losing features regardless of whether it’s Photoshop, Lightroom or Premiere Pro.As someone who has been with Adobe from the beginning, I’m becoming increasingly frustrated and annoyed that as a paying customer I am being supplied with a product that does not work as described.  Looking at the multitude of comments across multiple forums, it’s obvious that the latest Photoshop update was rushed through without being tested properly.  If it has been then might I suggest Adobe find itself some new software developers. The way Adobe behaves, it appears the company couldn’t care about the opinions of it’s customers.  We pay a substantial amount of money every year to use the products yet are continually without fail let down by the quality of the product.  Perhaps if customers start looking at the legalities of supplying a product that is not fit for purpose and start to make refu

el relleno generativo, siempre me dice que no es posible realizarlo porque infrinjo las políticas de photoshop. Pero no es verdad, yo le tomo fotos a modelos, necesito usar el licuar y luego no puedo usar el relleno generativo para corregir los fondos de las fotos 

Dear all,I have a question regarding cropping an image with complex lines. The image is in a High Resolution PNG. The design needs to be printed on one side of an enamel mug. I tried cropping it using the Magic Wand tool via Help > Adobe Help > Remove Background, but this is not precise enough. The client does not have any image other than PNG or JPEG.I want to crop it using channels; can anyone give me a tip on how to do this as accurately as possible?I have attached the PNG as an attachment.

Something really strange is going on. My gradients look fine when I'm editing, but when I export, it's only showing the leftmost color. I've attached images.   

In last version, when ran attached script (uploaded as text because would not permit ATN version) , when completed filename on window with file showed no asterisk indicating no unsaved changes. However, with 27.6.0, after the script completes, an asterisk is shown (example attached). Nothing was changed after the script ran. Checking Bridge, the complete file is saved as expected. When I attempt to save the image, sometimes I get no response indicating nothing new to save. Other times, I get a prompt to replace or duplicate the saved file. This all worked in the last version. I have used the script over 100 times with the prior version (which incidentally, was current until 27.6 arrived).Am running mac0S 26.4.1, current. Doug 

I have an image that is A3 size. Whenever I scale down the image, so I can reveal a white border, I notice they are not equal on all sides (as in the longest and shortest sides are not the same width). Wether I do this by transforming holding ALT, or alone and centring after, I never have an equal border on all sides. If I change the canvas size (with relative ticked) this makes the entire image larger than A3, which I do not want. How can I scale down my image and add a border, so that the total image size is A3 and the border is an equal width on all sides? Thanks - N4A

There was a similar (solved) post six months ago, but it provided direct links for the Mac version.https://prodesigntools.com/community/questions-712/photoshop-12-0-4-update-for-photoshop-cs5-there-was-an-error-downloading-this-update-1183081 I’m hoping for the same for Photoshop CS5 Windows x64.I have both the download link and the original discs (with serial numbers) for Production Premium CS5.  They work great, except I get this from the Adobe Application Manager when I attempt to update to Photoshop CS5 12.0.4: “There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.”Same result for Illustrator, Camera Raw, and Bridge updates.  Is there any way to get the update links for the CS5 Windows version?

I am trying to create a paper cutout effect in Photoshop. I use the polygon lasso tool and and click the layer mask button and nothing happens at all. It creates a mask but does not "remove" all the layers underneath it making it impossible to use? im not sure how to provide a video because im not sure where to post it.
