Hoe komt het dat ik photoshop 27.1 niet kan bijwerken

[Aleke]

Hi @jurgenb66070603, welcome to the community!
Could you share a bit more about what happens when you try to update the app? Do you see any error messages? Also, please check if you have enough free storage on your device. The more details you can provide, the easier it will be for us to help.
In the meantime, here’s a helpful guide for common update issues:

Thank you for the update! The improvements in Photoshop 27.1, especially the optimized scratch disk management and visibility of Generate/Import Image options, are very helpful. Excited to explore the enhanced performance and workflow fixes in this release.

And it also includes Nano Banana Pro (How many credits does it cost?)

[Roni_Erric6360]

Thanks for the update. The improved scratch disk handling is a big help and the performance feels smoother after updating. The fixes for the marquee options and the Select People action are also great additions. Just updated to version 27.1 and everything is working well so far. Appreciate the continued improvements.

27.0 has been routinely crashing my Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 whilst trying to "select background" or other more complex selections in Camera Raw.  Prior to 27.0 this very seldom occurred.  Does 27.1 fix this?

Add action button doesn't work! I want to create new action, but the "+" button in action panel is inactive
Why?

[Dimitar30292967lz5p]

Works only in classic mode of the action panel

The app is working fine but I just discovered to my dismay that you can no longer export animated GIFs and these are vital to my work. I've had to go back to an old version. You keep adding more and more functions and now you take away ones that people use. Please reinstate it.

Hi, thanks for reaching out! Could you tell us what's happening when you're trying to export an animated Gif and how you are doing it? Also, let us know the operating system you're working on. 

Thanks,
Nikunj

I am having an error with this update pertaining to CTRL/CMD C and V but only pertaining to the color picker. Copy/paste keyboard shortcuts work everywhere else in the program but DO NOT WORK TO COPY OR PASTE HEX CODES in the color picker. Right clicking and selecting Copy/Paste from the menu works fine. 

Something in this update broke the color picker's keyboard functionality.

Is this normal between the update for 2025 and 2026 versions? Because I've been having trouble with Photoshop lately and anytime I try to remove with the Quick Selection tool the background, I get the "could not complete your request because of a program error." And then after I use Photoshop and close out of the program, later on I get an error code "Adobe Creative Cloud is needed to resolve this problem. However, it is missing or damaged." This happens ever single time I use it and I don't know if it's a program issue or a technological issue on my side. I've tried to repair it and uninstalling it to reinstall the program and the thing keeps happening. What would someone do in a situtation like that for resolving the problem?

Having freezing issues on my Windows 11, but not Mac.  See my post HERE  in this community.

In this version there's allready the use of Gemini 3.0 included but it's not free. It requires a additional monthly subscription from Google. The cheapest one gives you 2000 credits/month to generate images or to edit photo's. But how mucht can you do with this credits, how many credits it uses to, for example, edit a photo? Why is this not included in the Adobe subscription? 

[onazole]

@Pick Axe Photoworks  10 credits per generation, they only last one month, if you don't use them you lose them

Thank you very much. Finally I know it now.
