Photoshop Droplet not working for MacOS Ventura

Community Beginner ,
Jul 06, 2023 Jul 06, 2023

When I create a simple PS droplet, it will go to the desktop, but when I drag a .jpg photo to the droplet, it says the droplet is damaged. So then I open the droplet and close it and it seems to open Photoshop, but then it won't open a new image and save the droplet preset actions to a new image. 

 

I am in admin mode on my MacOS Ventura.

 

What else could it possibly be?

Hi @Samantha29451764ompg do not rewrite the droplet or adjust your Photoshop.

This is a known Ventura issue.

 

  1. Go to Finder and select your droplet.
  2. Right-click and open.
  3. The error message will come up. Click open.

  4. This will open in the Droplet app (Mac Ventura).
  5. Quit the app and your droplet will now work.
    @Ranjisha Sengupta you should note this for any future reports of broken droplets.

Right-Click on the Droplet in the Finder. Click OPEN. The droplet should
work after that.

2025 UPDATE: For those of you who are still having issues, this YouTube video explains the fix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5noJxygJB5k

 

Basically, you have to go into System Settings -> Privacy & Security. Scroll down to Security and you should see "... was blocked to protect your Mac". Click "Open Anyway".

When you don't see the "open" option in the error message dialog you need to take the following steps to enable the droplet: Open the Apple menu > System Preferences > Privacy & Security > below under Security the droplet is mentioned and can be opened anyway > after that it works. Should you not see it there, then make sure to try and run the droplet first (doubleclick).
