Not true, the model is trained if you use Adobe Firefly when uploading reference images as I noticed this later on which now if I'm not mistaken costs credits. Generative AI has its pluses but I don't depend on it in any of my work especially when contracts are involved. I've tested it out on some Google images with adding more textures for a bigger canvas etc but never claimed it as my own work

I don't have the pro version but it was packaged with a mockup file when it was just known as pass pro. I still have my Intel 2017 MBP so I'm sure it'll work still but I'm definitely purchasing the pro version soon

Figma is nice but not worth an extra subscription added at least for me. I'm more into learning it but it's very limited on the free plan so I haven't really been doing too much of protyping and such. I may bite later on but now not so much

I would love to see XD make a return as it makes no sense to pay for Figma or Sketch. I still have XD installed, however, it never should've been discontinued until the acquisition for Figma was finalized. I think it's safe to say to take XD out of "maintenance mode" and make a solid return

Get rid of the blatant AI features to generate images and prompts and I'm good

It's definitely an Apple issue because of their integrated M-chips and memory taking the fact there's no actual GPU strong enough to handle multiple monitors regardless of their size. On my 2017 MBP I don't have any issues only with my mac mini m2 pro. This might be the last time I use mac to render anything with video, motion graphics, or 3D.

Unfortunately they dropped the ball again as it seems the Adobe creative space is catering to the Intel system and not so much Apple Silicon. I just encountered this right now using a UVPass plugin, it says it's installed but can't use unless in Rosetta which that option is not available for Apple Silicon.

Hey @Kevin Stohlmeyer it's funny because I'm using a mac mini m2 pro and the GPU setting is blank for me too. However it's enabled for me when I'm using photoshop and I'm using 3 LG monitors that are set for 1920x1080 but they do have the HiDPI versions but they're lower in resolution.

Even in EGP to change the font size is not there which is weird as it shows the same parameters in Effect Controls as well. I'm updating to the newest version that just released and see if it was a bug or something. Hopefully I don't have to run it in rosetta to activate it

I'm looking to use a lower thirds for a simple edit for still images. I went into the essential graphics tab and clicked on Browse until I found one called "Sports Lower Third Side". I brought it over into the timeline and was able to edit the text style and color of the graphics but not change the font size in effect controls. How do I go about changing the font size for the font I want to use as it cuts off as well as the graphic?

@kglad Totally understand but if the original poster has a subject line typed out like this one then you'll get everyone here posting in regards to the same situation regardless of the error code. Some users don't know how to see the error code within CC but since I looked it up I knew what to do right away. Once errors have been reported it should be listed that way everyone can post to the appropriate thread with some workaround solutions would be best. This is the first time I've ever had an issue with Photoshop updating since I've had my M2 but everything else updated smoothly before I added CC to the firewall settings

UPDATE: I tried to update Photoshop 24.2 many times and got the error 113 which is can't reach adobe servers. I'm on the new mac mini with the M2 and all of the updates have been successful until now. I added Creative Cloud app to the firewall list to allow connections after I updated the rest of the apps that needed updates for Lightroom and XD. What do you know Photoshop updated with no problems. This is the first time I've ever had to add the Creative Cloud to the firewall list just to update Photoshop since I've had the new mac mini.

Photoshop 24.2 definitely has some issues with the M2 chip it seems. I think it's redundant to run it in Rosetta as we're not on intel chips anymore. Running apps in Rosetta on the M2's are noticeably slower and also Apple needs to slow it down coming out with so many devices with different chipsets as it's not needed and causes problems like these making it possible to go back to windows format. I'm skipping this update until they properly test the next set of updates before pushing them to the creative cloud app

Try uninstalling and reinstalling adobe. After uninstalling try clearing out any other Photoshop related content like libraries but make a backup copy before doing so. Once installed, try opening Photoshop again without running it as an admin. Then start copying over your libraries and presets over into the new folder from the fresh install.

I have a SanDisk external SSD 1TB and I have formatted it to "MacOS Journaled"but you can format it to NTFS since it's faster than the other formats. If you work between both PC and Mac then FAT32 is the way to go. Once you're done start up Photoshop then go to Preferences -- Scratch Disks and you should see your drive in the list. Click the check box and move it to the top of the list so Photoshop knows to use that drive first for the heavy lifting and make sure it's empty with no files saved on it to get the most out of it.

Dear Adobe please add these features back that were removed not too long ago as it made collaborating with clients who don't have access to Adobe to comment and make changes a dream. Not to mention it resulted from having to save JPG after JPG before sharing via txt message or email. It also made sharing a WIP or final image to social media like Instagram and Behance very easy as well. The Big Blue share button is useless and guaranteed NO USER will use it which you claimed for the removal of the last set of features. ALL USERS WHO AGREE PLEASE UPVOTE AND COMMENT

Make sure you have that external plugged in when trying to access it. If you try to open from your recently open list, it could result in an error. Once it's plugged in, open that file, then save it as a PSD in a new location. Keep us updated.

That I know just saying that's pretty much the only other step I know of as well in order to share on mac. I'll try the whole Adobe Cloud thing and try to share from that and see how it is and report back

We all know this function but to not have to save a file in order to airdrop was good especially when we're sending proofs to a client or posting on social media as a work in progress. Now we've gone back to where everybody will have a proofs folder filled with files that are not finals
