Question

Progress bar stuck on screen when opening image from Lightroom

I have an issue that has only started since the last 2 updates (to the current version).

When selecting "Open image in Photoshop" is used from lightroom the progress bar is left on the screen in photoshop even though the image has been transfered. Although you can just click withinn photoshop to move it to the back it is still a pain that never happened before.
Anyone else having this or worked out a solution ?

    This issue seems to come and go with successive updates. Very annoying

    This issue has persisted for months.

    In addition, sometimes the image never opens and I have to go back to LR and do it again. 

    This can happen several times and frequently requires a restart of PS.

    Super unimpressive.

      No solution. We’re stuck just to deal with it.

      Hi there,

       

      We're sorry for the trouble. Let us know the exact version of Photoshop and Lightroom you are using now? Also, are you seeing this problem only while openings files from Lightroom to Photoshop? Check the Creative Cloud Desktop and see the Adobe apps are updated?

       

      Thanks,

      Mohit

        Hi Mohit, in my case, it's when I'm using both PS and LR, both of which are fully up to date. The only way to get rid of the progress bar is to relaunch PS. I've also noticed that the progress bar appears when the RAM on my iMac is almost fully utilised. (All 32GB). 

        As you can see from the thread, this issue has been going on for some time now and you're the first official Adobe employee to acknowledge this problem. Hope you can fix it!

        Regards, Roger. (Periclix)

        It's been months and I still have this problem.  I also have the issue where Opening as Layers (from LR to PS) doesn't work most of the time. You get two separate images and an odd blank layer.

         

        I'm fed-up with the goons at Adobe continuing to roll out pointless new features/gimmicks while leaving these obvious issues unresolved.

         

        It's total contempt.

        Just adding myself to the long list of Adobe users experiencing the problem with the Progres bar window remaining open and not being able to cancel it. Using PS 22.1.0 on a iMac.

        They're not going to fix this.   7 pages of thread and how many months of problems?  Still going on both my machines.  Pretty ridiculous really.

        Come on Adobe, [removed]! This has been an issue for 5 MONTHS! You will lose more and more subscribers if you continue on this path of unresponsiveness. A simple acknowledgement that you're aware of the problem and working on a fix would go a long way. But silence?? If I owned Adobe stock I'd be selling it.
