Stuck in Camera Raw Filter

[leighbardsley]

Photoshop v20.0.07 & v 21.0.1

macOS 10.14.6

I'm editing using the Camera Raw filter on a smart object, and after switching to another application and then coming back to Photoshop, I can no longer use Photoshop and must force quit without saving. It looks like a problem with misplaced focus, whereas normally the Camera Raw filter dialog would be in focus/in front and usable, instead the progress bar dialog for the Camera Raw filter is in front. Clicking the cancel button on this progress bar dialog does nothing (makes the OS error sound), most actions in the Camera Raw dialog dont work as everything is greyed out and this window does not have focus — I can only click and drag to zoom, or click and drag the histogram. I cannot click anything in the Photoshop application window either. This priginally happened  in v21 so I switched to v20 but now it has happened there too.

I find one more solution, this my camera raw config.

Will this time-wasting obscure confusing bug be fixed by November 2021? I wasted HOURS fiddling with settings, etc., only to find the answer had nothing to do with logic or best practices, all I had to do was uncheck an unrelated preference WHICH IS ENABLED BY DEFAULT... 

So editing a linked or smart layer in Camer Raw is SUPPOSED to cause an "only-force-quit-will-solve-this" error?

Please fix this issue, Adobe. We all know you can. And more importantly, let the Smart Layer using Adobe community know about this embarrasment, especially because this issue seems not to be considered an issue worth your attention...

[magnusb13054409]

What box did you uncheck?

[PECourtejoie]

Hi, I guess this one: Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw > Performance and selected Off from the "Use Graphics Processor" drop-down.

[koswalt]

I feel like I've tried this before. BUT, I've done all the things that tend to reliably reproduce the freeze up on the Camera Raw filter and it's worked every time so far.

@PECourtejoie, has this continued to work for you since you did it? 

[PECourtejoie]

I do not suffer from this issue... I'm trying to help.

[koswalt]

False alarm. Still doesn't work. Just had it happen with this setting set to off.

[ThatGuyHimself]

I also encountered the same issue multiple times recently and it drove me crazy. Spent hours and hours working on document, and it ended with a 'force quit'. And when I did force quit..... It came back again..... Luckily, I have found myself a solution. This might be impractical, but it is based on my experience, worth trying.

I think someone also had mentioned this way on this page, but I am going to mention it again. Please do note that I am using the 2021 Photoshop on a 2017 MacBook Pro, and the result of this method may or may not vary in between cases. But nonetheless, here's my way:

Photoshop -> Preferences -> Camera Raw -> Performance -> Purge Cache

This may work in the effort to solve the problem, but what I have learned from my experience, it is best if you do the method above every time before you start doing anything to a document in which you are planning to later add the camera raw filter.

This will help perhaps, i kinda forgot where preferences is in the menus 🙂 I never use that, tend to use as much shortcuts as possible.

I cannot believe this issue is still unresolved after 1.5 years. This is only one of several community threads reporting the same issue, none of which are resolved. And beyond just Camera Raw, I am now getting stuck in the Liquify and Filter Gallery dialogs when working with large smart objects. It is such a stupid and infuriating glitch, and it is making Photoshop unusable for professional, high-resolution work. I am losing countless hours to this bug, and am unable to make the same quality of work I was making before the issue arose. I have also wasted colossal blocks of time and energy working with a cast of completely unhelpful Adobe technicians. FIX THIS.

[Lorett5E0B]

im stuck in the camera raw filter and cannot x out or save . I have to close down my laptop and loose my work to get out,

[c.pfaffenbichler]

What have you done for trouble-shooting so far? 

Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/basic-trouble-shooting-steps.html

What are your Photoshop, ACR and OS versions? 

[Lorett5E0B]

I have looked into preferances in the edit drop down box for camera raw and purged ..Im not really sure what I can do.  I can open camera raw from Bridge and that page has clear boxes for saving and editing. 

its just when i got to camera raw from photoshop that the problem occurs. 

[Guest]

Try resetting your ACR preferences, in Photoshop go to Edit > Preferences and Ctrl + Shift click on Camera Raw you should see this dialog

[James5EB3]

I have been experiencing this issue for over a year, as have a number of others on this Community thread:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem/stuck-in-camera-raw-filter/td-p/10760665

I can assure you that there is no solution and that Adobe has no interest in fixing it. I have spent countless hours on screenshare with several adobe techs, none of whom were able to mitigate the problem in any way. The only workaround is to work with smaller images, which is obviously a nonstarter for large-dimension, professional work.

Unbelievable.

[OpenSistemas]

I have been experiencing the same since updating to the 2021 version, tried all the ideas in this thread and nothing worked. Eventually I just switched back to PS 2020 which dind't give me this problem. Hopefully in 2022 versions it will be fixed, but for now, I'm skipping this one.

Maybe it works for you too. 

[Almarzeta]

I really cant believe this has been a constant issue for so many of us and that there is no solution after so long

[jamies52363509]

Oh man... i FINALLY upgraded my mac so i could get with the newest operating system and now i find out that CRF of all things breaks photoshop.  What an utter disappointment.

[Sugam5CB6]

same problem here tooo 

[carriepray]

This is still happening in the 2022 version. I've updated everything. The Camera Raw 14 window tries to pop up, gets buried (I have 3 monitors including my laptop), the progress bar on the filter comes up, everything is stuck. I'll have to force quit and lose work. Thanks Adobe.

Usually when I have a smart object and I go to Camera Raw, a dialog box pops up and freezes up photoshop. 

Try this, before you open camera raw, rasterize your image, then make it a smart object again, now open camera raw. This is the only thing that worked for me. But I only know I need to do this when Camera Raw freezes again.

Been having the same issue. What fixed it for me was to hold down Shift+Command+Option while opening Photoshop. Modal should appear asking if you want to delete the settings file, click “Yes.” Photoshop will then launch with default settings. So far so good!

Chiming in with my annual "THIS ISN'T FIXED" post. It's been two and a half years now. Despite countless updates Camera Raw is still unusable on smart objects. Still mourning the loss of what was one of the most precious non-destructive editing tools in Photoshop. Please please please fix this Adobe 😞
