Since the last Photoshop update V24.3 my images will not load correctly, the images apear as flashing white in full working screen. Has anyone else had this issue?

Adobe writing on GPU (video card) issues.

Here are some suggestions from Adobe for GPU issues.

First check the system requirements: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/system-requirements.html

Also:

Does turning on »Deactivate Native Canvas« (Photoshop > Preferences > Technology Previews) and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue? 

And sometimes this helps:

Go to Preferences > Performance... and uncheck Multithreaded Compositing - and restart Photoshop.

Also try this:

Check your hardware acceleration settings and in particular turn off the Native Canvas.

Do that in Preferences>Technology Previews: 

check the tickbox for 'Deactivate Native Canvas' and uncheck 'Enable Native Canvas ', then restart Photoshop

Next step would be to go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and enable "Older GPU mode (pre 2016)", then restart Photoshop

Next step would be to disable the GPU in Photoshop preferences, then restart Photoshop

consider updating your graphics driver

I hope this helps

Bonjour, 

J'essaye d'ouvrir mes fichiers sur mon ordi et l'écran devient blanc/noir/blanc/noir en répétition.

Sur un autre ordinateur les fichiers s'ouvrent correctement.

Peu importe le fichier sur mon ordinateur, Photoshop s'ouvre mais le plan de travail bug, même si j'ai accès à mes calques, à mes outils, etc.

J'ai fais en début de semaine la dernière mise à jour, je ne sais pas si ça peut être le problème.

Si jamais quelqu'un a déjà eu ce problème, je suis preneuse de conseil !

@Manon28954484yr5c 

open photoshop>edit>preferences>technology preview>check "disable native canvas"

then restart photoshop

Bonjour. Quand j'ouvre mes docs Photoshop (png, psd...), le doc apparait blanc. Les calques aussi sont présent mais les vignettes sont transparentes (sauf le fond ou background). Je peux utiliser tous les outils mais je ne vois rien. Problème de preview ?

[CShubert]

Hi @Frédéric2926532683g5 

Go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and enable “Older GPU mode (pre 2016)” - Restart Photoshop. Does the problem persist?

[Ged_Traynor]

@Frédéric2926532683g5 if the above doesn't help, try going to Edit > Preferences > Technology Previews and enable this option, then restart Photoshop

Photopshop 24.3.0 on Mac Studio.

Photoshop will now and then stutter/lag/flicker _once_ about every minutte, If I am for example using the lasso tool to draw a selection I will loose the selection when this happen.

Any clues how to slove this?

Thanks 🙂

Try disabling the open GL or the graphics processor. You will need to restart Photoshop for that change to take effect.

Tengo problemas con Photoshop. Se abre perfectamente, pero cuando subo un archivo RAW y JPG el monitor empieza a titilar. La imagen se carga como una capa, pero no aparece en la mesa de trabajo.- En los últimos trabajos realizados estaba todo bien.-
Por favor, alguien me puede ayudar????

Muchas gracias.-
