If your eyedropper tool stops working correctly in Photoshop, then it's time to do some troubleshooting. Depending on how you like to use this tool, the steps to solve your issues may not be immediately obvious. Luckily, with the tips outlined here, you'll learn how to quickly fix the eyedropper tool when it stops working in only a couple of seconds.
The most common reason for this tool to stop working is because of 5 main reasons. The first is that the layer mask is selected so you only sample white. The second is that you aren't able to sample the layers you want, meaning your sample type is incorrect. The third reason is that your sample size is set too large or too small, while the fourth and fifth reason is little things like you don't have the sample ring option checked off, or are using the wrong eyedropper tool. No matter what problem you're facing, the eyedropper tool tips you'll learn here will get you back up and running in no time.

my eyedropper tool only shows white and goes to black in the color box no matter the setting or layer I am on. Anyone know how to fix that?
@photonsonpixels
@photonsonpixels 3 года назад
Thanks, Brendan. Very timely actually! I am having a problem whenever I want to compare color values of two areas of the same layer. Once I have placed the "marks" (with the version of the dropper that you showed on problem #5), I don't know how to remove them. Can you let me know how to do that? Thank you!!
@BrendanWilliamsTutorials
@BrendanWilliamsTutorials 3 года назад
You can press the “clear all” option in the upper settings bar when using that version of the eyedropper. Alternatively you can holy Alt/opt + click on the points you want to delete. If that doesnt work try holding opt/alt + shift and click on points to delete.

hello.sometimes when i use brush tool and work and when i pick the dropper tool i cant see that circle thing which pop ups on the screen to match the colors why is that? And at the same time i cant zoom smoothly those problems happen together
@BrendanWilliamsTutorials
@BrendanWilliamsTutorials 3 года назад
The sampling ring won't appear on your brush if the "show sampling ring" option is unchecked in the eyedropper tool settings. It's kind of weird IMO but if you go to the Eyedropper tool, check off the "show sampling ring" option in the upper settings bar, then go back to your brush tool and sample using the Alt/Option key, the ring will appear again. I feel like there should be a setting for that more accessible from the brush tool directly.

I have an issue that was not mentioned and it's driving me up the wall: The rectangle tool will randomly decide not to react to my eyedrop sample and instead keep the previous color it had. When I go to brush everything is fine, back to rectangle and somehow it didn't catch the memo. There is an option to choose swaps of color in the tooltip window for the rectangle tool, but I just want it to change it's damn color according to my eyedropper as every other tool does. Any else having this problem?
