Hola, buenos dias.

 

En la ultima actualización de photoshop beta no me deja arrastrar y soltar imagenes desde el escritorio de mi computadora, lo cual si podia realizar en la versión anterior. Si me pudieran ayudar, muchas gracias.

@Silvia del Ca38491172xerd make sure you have your Mac OS Settings/Privacy and Security/Full Disk Access set with Photoshop first.

I am having the same problem with v25.11 on Mac.  A colleague has the issue too (also on Mac).

 

Non-beta Photoshop works fine.

Hi Adobe,

I've got a problem after updating the latest version of Photoshop Beta. 

I can't drag & drop images to the artboard like I usually used to.

 

Thanks in advance.

@Silvia del Ca38491172xerd You gave access to Creative Cloud desktop app not Photoshop beta. Add Photoshop beta specifically.

I just tried it, and to clarify what is going on:

 

Nothing has changed in the latest normal public release. Drag and drop from desktop works as expected in version 25.9.1.

 

The build where it’s not working is the public beta, which is a test build where things are more likely to not work right, so hopefully this is only a temporary thing that will be fixed when they get the new features hammered out for a production release.

All I know is the Beta was working until the last beta update and it does not work on my Mac any longer. Adobe support took over my desk top and they could not get it to Drag and Drop in the beta version. I could drag and drop the day before yesterday and now it does not work on my system is all I know!

  1. Version of the app - 25.11 m.2689
  2. Platform and OS version - Sonoma 14.5
  3. Basic steps to reproduce the problem - dragging an image from finder into photoshop
  4. Expected result and actual result - expected to drag the image into my artboard, actual doesn't drop in, it just bounces back to finder (the same thing that happens when you haven't commited an object transform and try to drop an image in)

In the past, I was able to drag a file (.jpg, .png, etc.) from the finder window into an open .psd file and it would create a new layer with a smart object. As of today (7/10/24) I am unable to drag the file in. Nothing happens when I do. No error message shows up and the file never gets added to the document. I have had to go back to the regular version of Photoshop to work as I do this with most projects. I hope this can be fixed. Thanks!

Hi, i had used Photoshop CC Beta since last year and never encountered any problem before. But just yesterday i noticed when doing my work that i can't drag and drop any other files/photo directly to opened file/place embedded file into smart object directly like i used to do. So i had to do manual step by step progress with file > place embedded right now and it's not practice at all like how i used to do it. Can you help me about this bug? I just updated to latest version yesterday(automatically updated) and this might the cause for this bug problem. Tried to update my OS but nothing change regarding this problem. Here's the detail of my current app:

1. Adobe Photoshop CC Beta 25.11.0

2. MacOS Sonoma 14.5

3. Drag image from finder to any opened files in Photoshop to create new layer of embedded image as smart object

4. Added embedded image as smart object in foremost layer in the opened files, but now nothing happen unless i drag it to the opened file bar then become "open file" feature and drag it as place between opened file.

O recurso arrastar e soltar não está a funcionar na última versão beta. Buscar uma imagem no finder, clicar e arrastar para dentro do programa.

! Uso imac "M2".

! O photoshop oficial,  o recurso ainda funciona,

Thank you but I've never had to before. Seems Adobe knows this is an issue and is working on it without having to give full access.
