Hi there,

 

Looks like your CPU version isn't compatible with Photoshop 22.0. You should roll back to the previous version of Photoshop 21.2.4 and let us know if that helps.

 

Here's how you roll back to the previous version: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

 

Thanks,

Hi there,

 

Sorry that you're getting an error "Error at loading of ippCV library" while loading Photoshop.

 

Photoshop 2021 (v22.x) requires a CPU that supports SSE 4.2 or later. See: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/known-issues.html#ErroratloadingofippCVlibrary

 

To determine if your CPU meets this SSE version support requirement, see Photoshop's Help > System Info dialog and look in or near the 4th line.

  1. Adobe Photoshop Version: 22.0.0 20200921.m.1053 2020/09/21: 0fb66349f4  x64
  2. Numb

I have the same problem... Does that mean that I have to buy a new computer if I want to continue with new versions of PS? My computer works very well and I do not want to change..

use this fix as have been mention above.

 

Here is the fix.

 

Despite what Adobe is saying officially, Photoshop 2021 does NOT require the support of SSE4.2 to run.
The real problem is that:
- IPP libraries optimized for SSE3 are missing from distribution (they are available from Intel)
- OpenCV library was build with SSE4.2 requirement
To fix this download this pack of libs from any source below (it's the same):
https://www113.zippyshare.com/v/cqtznzt2/file.html
https://www.sendspace.com/file/vh0wjm
Unpack archive and copy libs to Photoshop 2021 installation directory (overwrite opencv_world440.dll when requested).

This fixes the problem an PS runs just fine.
But disclaimer as usual - all this at your own risk.

 

Please note that this is not a hack or something like this - this is official libraries from official sources.
Intel IPP libraries was taken from Intel Parallels Studio XE 2020.1.0 and contains valid signature from Intel.
OpenCV library was taken from official release of OpenCV 4.4.0 on GitHUB (https://github.com/opencv/opencv, build by VC15).

The fix for MACOS can be downloaded from here:

https://www.sendspace.com/file/meab5g


Unzip the file and copy the resulting libopencv_world.4.4.0.dylib file to replace the same file in the Photoshop 2021 installation directory (/Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2021/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2021.app/Contents/Frameworks/libopencv_world.4.4.0.dylib).

 

This fixes the problem an PS runs just fine.
But disclaimer as usual - all this at your own risk.

Additionally, you also need libopenjp2.7.dylib to be installed in /usr/local/opt/openjpeg/lib/ folder
the file can be downloaded from here: https://www.sendspace.com/file/p2i2le

Once you download the file and unzip it, you do the following steps in Terminal:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/opt/openjpeg/lib/
mv libopenjp2.7.dylib /usr/local/opt/openjpeg/lib/

Enjoy

I'm glad to find out there's a fix. I haven't planned to shop for PC hardware just to keep up with the PS. As a paying customer, I can only hope Adobe brings back official support for my AMD Phenom II X4 905e CPU.

I am really discussed with this and very annoyed. I have just subscribed for the first time (done it for 12 months period) and find that I can't run Photoshop. I have been using Photoshop CS6 & Lightroom 6 until yesterday, finally taking the plunge as I realised that I am missing out on so many improvements. (I am now still missing out on lots after upgrading). I have had to install the previous version v21.2.4

 

Surly this can be fixed by offering the option in settings to not use SSE4.2 and let us manage with slower processing. At least we can then still continue to use Photoshop.

 

Please PLEASE, can this be fixed? There could be possibly be hundreds of thousands of users this will affect.

 

In the mean time I can't even open an image from Lightroom Classic as it is expecting v22.0 and I can't find a way of changing that in Preferences.

Same issue here and I'm furious that the fix is to downgrade or buy a new computer for a few thousand dollars and spend a hundred hours or so transferring over all the files and programs and source files.

 

Adobe - you really messed up with this one.

Danke für den Tipp mit dem Youtube Video ,habe es mir angeschaut und habe die Dateien nach Anleitung installiert .
Photoshop 2021 funktioniert jetzt einwandfrei. Warum schafft es Adobe nicht mit all seinen Programmierern ein
Update zu bringen,damit PS 2021 auf den meisten Rechnern läuft.

Grüsse und Dank an alle in der Community die ander Lösung des Problems gearbeitet haben.

Yes you will, at least until Adobe refuses to install on your machine at all.  Then we are all out of luck.

This fix worked for me!  I would backup the original files first, just in case.  Then go ahead and replace with the downloaded files.  Open Photoshop and it works. Follow the instructions in t he video https://youtu.be/wCOwEnJkZb4

Downgrading worked for me when I tried it.  Are you sure you installed the older version?

Photoshopr 2021 is ver 22.  You need to go back to Photoshop 2020, which is version 21.  Could that be more confusing?  Click on the ... dropdown to the right of the app in CC desktop and then to Other Versions.
