My timeline window in photoshop does not show up.

On the 'Window' menu it shows that it is on but nothing shows up. The timeline window usually shows up at the botton on the workspace. Please HELP

Without any system information nobody can tell you much. If it's an M1-based Mac, then some functions are simply not available. Refer to the release notes. Anything else will require the proper technical information.

Hi,

 

Seems it's an issue with v22.3 not working properly with the M1 chipset: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/photoshop/kb/photoshop-for-apple-silicon.html#sa_src=web-messaging

 

I reinstalled v22.2 and it's reappeared.

 

Apparently installing Rosetta should help it: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861#sa_src=web-messaging

 

Thanks for your help.

    Select Window > Timeline. In the middle of the Timeline panel is a drop down list where you can select Create Video Timeline or Create Frame Animation.

      Hi Barbara.

       

      I'm hoping you can help. When I open the Timeline I'm only given the option to Create Frame Animation - there is not option to Create Video Timeline. When I tried it last week, I was given the option, but I have updated the OS and now it is gone. I wonder if they're linked. I am using Photoshop CC 22.3.0 on Big Sur 11.2.3.

       

      Thanks

      Simon

      Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Barbara.

       

      Neither of those options work. I don't get the option to 'Create Video Timeline' from the dropdown.

       

       

      I've converted the rectangle to a Smart Object (Feed 1). I'm in the Motion Workspace.

       

      I've tried double clicking on the Smart Object so it comes up as a .psb in its own window and then dragging a video onto it, but get "Could not place “xxxxx.mp4” because no parser or file format can open the file."

       

      I've uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled it.

       

      It's strange as it was working last week.

      Thanks,

      Simon

       

       


      Uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop does not necessarily reset your preferences. Try a preference reset to see if that restore both timeline options
