When I try to search for adobe brushes, both from the "get more brushes" brush window and from the search engine, when I get to the web it does not recognize as if I have a logged in account even though it is logged. I've tried logging out of all pages, clearing the cache, everything, but it keeps happening...
I can't access the brushes in any way. When I get to this section it tells me to download the creative cloud desktop app, which I have downloaded and logged in... Even on this same page you can see that I am logged in although it acts as if I am not... Any idea what I can do?

Yes, they have changed trhe lay out of the Get More Brushes page. It still works, but you have to scroll down a long way to find the brush sets. So just ignore the first few pages and scroll down till you see this:

Is that the only size you have? If you have a higher resolution version, then that will things very much easier.

Do you mean that it is slow to fill the panel, or slow to move the panel?
How many files/objects do you have in your CC library, and what is thir typical size?
Could it be accessing your files in your Adobe cloud storage space? What is your internet connection like?

I've just realised that the release date on that update was after the other people in this thread posted, so that particular update could not have caused it.

I've tried to duplicate your result on Windows release and beta, and Mac beta, but can only see the expected result. You can reset the Marquee tool. It always feels like a cop out suggesting a reset, because it doesen't tell you what the issue was, so you learn nothing.

@Aleke I just had the same error message, and it was immediately after a Windows 11 update.
This is the Learn More Link
In my case, simply restarting Photoshop (26.6 m.3014) seems to have cleared the warning dialog. If this tally's with other people's experience, then it might be useful to say so here. Check Windows Update History if you are not sure. 26.4.1 Release, and 22.2 also open without any error messages.

Your hardware sounds up to the job, and AFAIK when the Neural filters fail they tend to crash the machine rather appear to work but have no effect. OK, something we can all compare.
That must be some sort of algae bloom in the bottom right caused by climate change.
Have you tried both release and beta versions?
Are you able to see and use the profile presets?
Any other clues, or does it simply appear to be working, but have no effect?

Not sure what this is Bob. I can make out the sideways image of a person diving at the top, but the rest is too blurred.
I reached the age where we need a medical to keep our driving license last year (75) and wasn't taking any chances. So I memorised the top three lines of the eye chart while attending a previous visit to the doctor, and used that info to find the same chart so I could memorise enough to pass. When I went for the medical I found I could read all the way to the second from last line without memorising. I left the surgery with my signed form, and went straight to get the new license. On the way in I helped a _very_ old and infirm looking lady into the building, and was astonished when I discovered that she was also there to nenew her drving license! When we left the building she got into her V8 Holden (Australian muscle car) and drifted out of the car park enveloped in clouds of white smoke.
I might have dreamed the last bit, but I just had time to get my phone out and grab this picture.

All seven presets are there, and this is what they look like.
I have saved them out to a .abr (brush presets) file and they seem to work exactly the same. Anyone know if I am missing something here? Kyle must have used the .tpl Tool Preset format for a reason.

None of the links appear to be working now, and the forum won't let me upload the file to this post (wrong file type, and I tried zipping it up). I have tried uploading to my Adobe cloud space, but there is no option to share non-image file formats.
If you PM me your email address (don't post it to the forum) I can forward the TPL file at least. The Zip file that includes the video is too large to email, but I can describe the installation process.

since you have to be 18 to use AI, what exactly is inapporpirate content anyway?
By @dave12345645
Anything our ever more woke society says is inappropriate. It's just about managing the introduction of a contentious tool, and avoiding legislation likely to shut it down, or limit it. But the real worry, is not knowing how prudish Skynet will be when it takes over the world.

I am definitely still finding it a pain in the rear end. When you get a bullet or number that you did not intend, you then can't get rid of it, and unless you use text a lot, you are probably going to have to stop what you are doing, and go hunt for information on how to cancel out of them.
FYI you can control them in the Properties panel, but they are probably going to be hidden unless your workspace has an uber-large space for that panel.
Obvious, I know, and equally exactly where you'd expect to find them, is the Character panel.
I'll not forget this going forward till I am even older and greyer, and hopefully nor will anyone else who sees this thread.
Are they useful? I guess, if I am being kind, but I'd rather have control of how my bullets and line numbers look, and I strongly suspect that nine out of ten Photoshop users are obsessive compulsive about this stuff. It's no biggie to hit that button every time, but I would _much_ rather be able turn them off and have them stay off.

What model is your Mac? This forum post says that the beta will not run on Apple Silicon hardware.

I suspect you are on to something with that post Dag. Both of those video apps will create super large cache files.
In PremPro go Edit > Preferences > Media Cache and hit delete. You can set a max size up to 500GB. The default is 100GB
In AE it is Edit > Purge. The link I just looked at suggested there is no upper limit short of running out of disk space, so AE can definitely eat into drive space.
Photoshop temp files are nowhere near as large, but 30GB is not unreasonable. If you cxlose Photoshop, any Photoshop Temp files left in the root directory of your primary scratch drive can safely be deleteted.

I tried all the suggestions above, and now this one. I still can't get the menu bar to respond. I tried switching to a different Adobe app, but it's still not working. 🥺
By @LStinnettPhotography
There has to be something going on here. I might have missed this, but have you tried resetting Preferences yet? Use a full manual reset as laid out in this link:
https://helpx.adobe.com/ie/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually
But before you do that, can you show us a screen shot of your full workspace. You will need to have a file open and the layers panel viewable. Make it full resolution.
Do you have the beta version, or an earlier version of Photoshop installed? It would be useful to compare.
If you are still stuck after all this, and it looks certain that there is a serious problem with Photoshop, reinstall again, but this time use the Cleaner tool. One step at time though, and report back after each step.

If the clipped layer is only showing the outline, then the layer it is clipped to has no interior, or it is masked. I suspect that Jane's suggestion of a full res screen shot showing the image and layers panel will make things clear.

Sorry to ask, but just to be sure, make doubly sure that you don't have any feather set in the Options bar. I have definitely been caught out with that in the past. Are you are using Gen Fill from the CTB? I am just guessing here, but if you are using the Generative Workspace, then I wonder if it has options regards how closely it adheres to selections? Firefly had something like that, but it might have been only with the Text Effects generator.
Now, having said all that, the last time I tested, it was pretty good at using my selected area. I just tested again, and it was spot on.

Your version is well out of date, and needs to be updated if you wish to keep using the beta version. That should also fix any issues you are having.

Check that you have the latest version of the CC Desktop app (6.5.0.348)
Otherwise, it should be under the Apps tab in the Creative Cloud Desktop app. I have tried to hide it to see if I can work out what your issue is, but I am unable to do so. It should be there.

Though it asks you to login to creative cloud so it probably would count as your 2nd "computer" license I guess.
By @ThioJoe
It doesn't work that way on the Mac, although I geuss it wouldn't as both versions would be seen as running on the same computer. It sure would be nice if we could run Beta and Release at the same time on Windows. It takes exactly ten seconds to swap versions on my Windows 11 system, and it is getting a bit clogged up and in need of an OS reinstall. So, not the end of the world.

You mean I have to change the script in order to change the shortcuts? How?
By @Jalen30051005ql1u
No, it wouldn't work like that, and I don't know if forum scripting experts like @Stephen Marsh could do anything. The Alt Backspace shortcut can't be changed, but maybe the Edit > Fill dialog could be accessed automatically. I don't know the first thing about scripting, so you'll need someone like Stephen.
What would you like to achieve? How would you like it to work?
One way that would definitely work is using a gaming keyboard or MMO Mouse. This would not be one of the little TKL keyboards, but a full size keyboard with number pad and additional G keys. You can remap the G keys with sharacter strings, so you set up G1 to do Alt Backspace. I have a Logitech G515 on which every single key can be remapped that way, but if you take that route, you'd have to use iot as a second keyboard. It gets a bit crazy, and I am currently thinking that I'll abondon my plan to use the second keyboard, as I am not making it work for me. The idea works fine, but it is getting in the way. Oh well. It was only NZ$200 😞

If you are referring to:
Alt Backspace (fill with forground colour)
Ctrl Delete (fill with background colour)
...I think they are hard coded, so can't be changed.
What you can do is choose nearly any shortcut you like to open the Fill Dialog panel, but it's not going to be a one click solution — you'd need to use the dropdown and choose.
The test for making, or changing shortcuts is if they appear in a menu or toolbar, then you can change or set them. If they do not appear in a menu then you are out of luck. If you _really_ wanted to do this, then maybe the scripting people could help.
