In addition to seeing how many tabs are visible, another way to check how many images are open is to look under the Window menu. Underneath the last divider line under the Window menu is a list of all open images.

Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible? 

Can you not select the other image via Window > …?

There appears to be only one image tab so I am unsure what you are talking about. 

Os another image listed at the bottom of Window > …? 

 

Do you even want to work with tabs? If not disable Photoshop > Preferences > Workspace > Open Images as Tabs and Photoshop > Preferences > Workspace > ENable Floating Document Window Docking. 


I have most likely lost the work and I have started over again. I am fairly new to photoshop as well. I was placing multiple pictures to the artboard and somehow opened the pic up on a new tab. I cannot figure how to get back. I started with something like this. I had multiple pics on different layers on top of  flower background.
