P: Face Aware Liquify doesn't find faces in some cases

With the new face detection, which is really great and fast tool to use, I have a lot of picture with the model reclining and the face is not detected automatically, is there a way to force the detection? In the end I rotated the picture 90 deg and worked on the face, with no problem.

Photoshop Fix, at least mine, is being used on my phone as an app. iPhone 8 +. This problem with not being able to use Liquify. It doesn't detect a face on any photos anymore. It started a couple of months ago.

@hannah_nicollet we're having issues with Photoshop Fix; not Photoshop.

I installed the latest update for Photoshop CC 2019 yesterday, and now the face aware liquify tool doesn't recognize ANYTHING. Really getting tired of the updates making everything crash. Last update it was all liquify tools.

I’ve posted the image on a photography forum to see if anyone else has the same problem with this image. Only one response so far. A person running Win10 - and his PShop doesn’t detect a face in this photo either.

I'm sorry. I really don't know why it's turning out to be so complicated. Hopefully someone from Adobe will be working this weekend and see this and help you troubleshoot.

Didn't work. 😞 Still doesn't detect a face.

Okay, so now I am going to suggest the standard: save any custom presets you've made and then delete your Preferences (Cmd-Opt-Shift-click to launch).  I downloaded your file and can confirm what Heather saw. 2018 does recognize the face, so since we're on the same platform, this shouldn't be a Windows vs Mac thing. Deleting Preferences is typically the first step. I've enlarged his eyes and made him smile as much as the app allows.

No difference other than a pop up notice appears (see screen grab)

How about if you select the person icon right above the hand? Does it work for you then?

I updated my MAC OS to 10.13
I installed PShop 2018
It still does not detect the face (see screen grab) I don't understand why it works on your PShop but not mine. 😞
