Accessing Photoshop on the web just redirects me to blog post

I am trying to access the Photoshop beta on the web using the Chrome browser on a Chromebook that meets all the minimum requirements. I am signed in to my Adobe Creative Cloud. I navigate to https://photoshop.adobe.com and Photoshop appears to start to load, but then immediately redirects me to this blog post: https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2021/10/26/creative-cloud-canvas-spaces-ps-ai-in-browser

 

Any advice for accessing the Photoshop beta on the web? Is there something I need to enable in my account before it will work? Thank you!

Hi Ted,


To access the Photoshop on the web beta, go to Creative Cloud web > Files > Your files. Open a Photoshop document and click the Open in Photoshop on the web beta button in the header.

Wouldn't be simple (and almost basic development) to be able to access the photoshop online beta direcltly by logging and entering the web address.

 

Why would you make it so complicated, to need a cloud file, which is already in your documents and modify it from CC in order to be able to launch the online beta?

 

assuming you don't own an ipad (50% of market users wordlwide at least) and you don't already use the desktop photoshop version do you won't be able to use the beta online?

 

Who made this decision ? so basically if I am a linux or a chromebook user ( should be the market target no?) I can't use the beta version direclty...

 

i think adobe people and developpers should just from time to time exit their OSX bubble and aknowledge that you won't bring people to use CC or any other "service" with this kind of methods.

 

Come on!

Trying to avoid a new thread with the same question, but to be clear: the Adobe answer provided on October 29 does not solve my problem.

 

I can't access Photoshop on the web. I am logged in with my CC all apps account. I go to "Creative Cloud web  > Files > Your files" and click on any file type (.jpg, .psd, .psdc) in any folder (Cloud Documents, Synced Files, etc.) and the only option in the header is "Open in Photoshop" which opens my desktop app (screengrab of header attached).

 

The Adobe page says only "You may not have it available yet, but please check back soon!" (as it has said from the initial announcement). I cannot find posts from others who are waiting for access. So I'm left wondering if 1) I'm supposed to be able to access Photoshop on the web but can't, or 2) I don't have access to the program but will get it...someday.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, or how I can know if/when to expect access?

Are you trying to access from Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge? These are the currently supported browsers – if you try to access on a different browser you may not see the button in the header.
