I have a brand new iMac 24. Why does creative cloud want to download photoshop every time I want to try tutorials when I already have PS on my CC plan and on my computer already?

I think the sample files link is broken for many of the tutorials. Instead of downloading a sample .jpg to follow along with the tutorial video, we are getting the photoshop installer file. In my case it is a .exe file since I am using a PC. Some of the affected tutorials are:

Crop a photo

How to adjust photo lighting with Levels

How to adjust photo color with Hue/Saturation

How to sharpen a photo nondestructively

 

Alternatively, not all tutorials act in this way. The Correct an unwanted color cast tutorial works just fine.

Hi @Bill28245184wvia tutorials do not download the files - they send an executable to open them directly in Photoshop.

     when I click on "Open in Photoshop" instead of launching my app, it always downloads a photoshop installer .dmg

    Are you logged in on the site?


    Yes. It logs me in.  I can download the asset image, but I can't seem to copy/use the saved image in my own PS app

    The downloaded asset appears  in Ps Beta from photoshop.adobe.com. There is a header that states "photoshop is not yet supported in this browser..." (I use Safari 16.3) This is weird as Adobe doesnt support Apples Safari but ask me to use Chrome. Is this part of the problem? Also why do the downloaded images open in Ps Beta? Again, why cant I use my latest PS app 24.2.0? This is not what I would call a user friendly tutorial! It seems that I have to jump through hoops and spend hours just to try a technique. Surely I'm not the only one having these issues. Thank you for your assistance, I do appreciate it. If you have any suggestions, I'll reply later today as I have an appointment now. Thank you again.
