Mac mini M1, running macOS Tahoe 26.3.1 — When double-clicking (or using: ⌘ + O  or  ⌘ + ↓) a photo in the Finder it fails to bring Photoshop 26 to the foreground that is in a different Space or Virtual Desktop. At that point, I have to manually switch to the virtual desktop that Photoshop is assigned to. Thank you in advance for your consideration — long-time Adobe user.

    I just got the Macbook Neo and it’s running 26.3.2. No problem with Spaces and Cmd+O, it does switch over.to the Photoshop Space. I’m not sure this will help, but try that update.

    Hello gener7,

    Thank you I was hoping you were right. Checked for updates and it tells me “Your Mac is up-to-date” showing macOS Tahoe 26.3.1.

    Via web search: “…26.3.2 update was initially intended for the new "MacBook Neo,…" 

    UPDATE: One thing I did find out after I posted this. If I already have an image open in Photoshop, then double-click an other photo in the Finder, the second one will automatically bring Photoshop 2026 to the foreground in a different Space/Virtual Desktop. 🤔

    Thanks again.

    It's good to know you made progress and a surprise to me that it was only for the Neo.

     

    Have a great Sunday 👍
