Downloaded the latest update a few hours ago.

Using a Mac on Yoaemite. No problems with updating. No problems running the new software.

Content aware spotting much quicker and visibly improved. Big deal for me. I do a lot of product photography. The face aware liquefy is creepy in so far as how easy it is to use. I see myself using it a lot with corporate clothing catalogues where we do large volumes and models are never quite right for my fussy client. Content aware crop works as well as was indicated in the teaser video. I will most likely use it on occasion as well. Actually it is quite impressive. Must look at content aware scale and see if that is improved.

The select and mask feature built into all the selection tools is also going to be useful for me.

I suspect a lot of these features will suit commercial guys and perhaps not landscape photographers so much. For me it is very useful. Didn't look at the stuff that doesn't concern me such as art boards and so on.

Thankfully, all but two of my plugins carried over this time with a simple copy & paste. The two that didn't were DxO Viewpoint 2 and Topaz Impression. Both had to be manually reinstalled.

None of my plug-ins transferred... quite a few too... Nik, OnOne10 and OnOne 9, the above mentioned as well, plus various others that I've collected and use.. Any easy way to re-enable them without re-installing?

As I said, I had to copy and paste. They don't transfer automatically. Nik and OnOne should work with c & p.

Adobe FAQ from Jeff Tranberry says you need to reinstall plug-ins with Photoshop CC 2015.5.

Wouldn't you know it... $:-\$

Adobe says :

“Because Photoshop CC 2015.5 is a major version update it will install completely separately from the current version of Photoshop CC”

Seems odd if it’s a “major” version update they didn’t just go ahead and call it Photoshop CC 2016.

The new "Select and Mask Taskspace" looks pretty good.

Unless there is another update in the works that will be PS CC 2016...

Nonetheless, my Topaz plugins and Focus magic plugin are working normally after a copy and paste transfer to the new plugin folder.

All my filters and plugins work fine after the copy/paste from the previous CC PS version to the latest.

Ditto. Everything seems to be working fine.

Only a minor glitch with me: on two Windows 10 machines, after upgrading, the upgrade partially locked each machine until I rebooted (the start menu wouldn't work). On one machine the upgrade failed at first: when I ran PS it claimed all sorts of file access failures, and I had to remove and reinstall it. That's another hour of my life I shan't see again, but on the great scheme of things no great hassle.

I will be happy the day the algorithm for content-aware crop can turn this kind of image without error.

Content aware crop, to me works just like standard content aware, net it's can't handle complex patterns period. Same issues of not really being able to create a new image without replication. The larger the swatch the worst the issue. Most of the demo's on-line I have seen, you can see large pieces of the image just being duplicated. I had hoped that Adobe would possibly reworked or improve the Content aware algorithm, but it seem like is the same.

Just like the failure of Content aware scale, which was introduced in a previous release. Attempting to grow an image with Content aware scale even an inch, created all types of image abnormalities within the file.

There's probably a team of geeks working on that. Someday an art director will just be able to conjure up an image from some cloud service with whatever elements he/she thinks is needed, and, Ouila. Synthetic photography. I'm not trying to be sarcastic. There seems to be a market for push button creativity.

My install doesn't see any of my plugins. Not sure what is going on.

This is a new installation of Photoshop, so I don't think plug-ins will transfer automatically. Either move them manually (Google for the folders to move) or reinstall them. In the case of Nik plugins, I just ran the installer again, and Nik found the new location. Much quicker than doing it manually, and saves any chance of mistakes.

The previous version of Photoshop was called Adobe Photoshop CC 2015, and the plugins would have been installed in a subfolder of that app in Applications / Program Files.

The latest update is in a folder called Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.5. You just need to move the plugins into there.

Pictus · « **Reply #59 on:** June 25, 2016, 04:38:43 am »

In Windows installing with the option to remove the old version, after the installation
finish just need to copy or move the content inside c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015\
to
c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.5\
The option to remove the old version will remove all Adobe stuff, but
will leave the third part stuff, which is exactly the files we need to copy.

For file operations nothing better than Double Commander, a cross platform
open source file manager with versions for Win/OSX/Linux/FreeBSD.
