I just updated photoshop to 2019 20.0 and now the text tool is misbehaving. I see no cursor and I can't select tpe. There is just nothing. I obviously disabled the stupid lorum ipsum nonsense, so when I click with the text tool, there is absolutely no indicatation that anything is happening. My coworker has the same problem and reset his preferences which fixed nothing.
Running Sierra 10.12.6

This issue should be fixed in the current version, Photoshop 2020 v21.x or later. Let us know if you're still having trouble.

Hi George! Thanks for the tip. It seems to be working. The graphics output itself looks a bit off - more noise. I wonder if I could be missing something.

Hannah,

I will send you over my system details too.

I have the same issue, running Photoshop v.22.0 on Windows 10. I have to completely disable graphics card processor acceleration to patch the problem. My graphics card is a GTX 1070 TI.

I am also having this issue. I've tried the following fix ideas that I've found online but no luck-

  • Restarted photoshop, opened a new file then opened the file I need to work on- doesn't work.
  • Turned off the graphics processor option, restarted photoshop, turned it back on- doesn't work.
  • Set the use legacy new doc interface, restarted photoshop, opened file- doesn't work.

Switching to RGB works but I need to work in CMYK. 

I just updated photoshop four days ago. I have windows 10 pro. I'd appreciate any help!!
