PhotoShop v24.2 Not Showing Legacy Extensions

Hey Guys,

 

I'm having issues enabling my legacy extensions panel on my Macbook Pro M1. It currently greyed even after I enabled all the legacy extension settings in my preferences and running photoshop in Rosetta.

Is anyone else encountering the same issue as me? or do you know a workaround for the time being?

Correct answer Jeff Arola

I would reset the Photoshop preferences by going to Photoshop>Preferences>General, clicking on Reset Preferences On Quit and restarting Photoshop.

Works here on a M1 2022 Mac Studio running macOS Ventura 13.2.1 and Photoshop 2023 (ps ver 24.2) under Rosetta.

Please help. I purchased some presets to do photo editing in PSD. I have the latest PSD. version and Apple M2 Pro macbook with the Sonoma OS.  Now, I am supposed to find these plugins at the extention panel or something but EXENTIONS is not even showing on my WINDOW tab or under my preferences it is greyed out. Why? Help please.

MariNella,

 

Maybe the presets are for Camera Raw?

 

Where did you get the presets from?

What if you actually open a document into photoshop proper?
