I downloaded an action from Adobe Studio called "Sandy Cheeks", but I don't seem to be able to get it to run properly. It doesn't perform the action on the document I have open, but always wants to open a new document. Is there a setting I need to change?

I have had this happen with other actions, too. Not sure what causes it, it is written in some how. Can you drag the photo onto the new file, does it do anything? Curious. I usually delete the action out of frustration, LOL. Try looking up the creator and contacting them. Adobe has an email feature, I believe. -Ali

on your actions palette- open the action by clicking on the blue triangle next to 'sandycheeks'. you should see a list of stuff below it- Make, Reset Swatches, etc. this is the 'history' of the action- everything that the action will tell photoshop to do.

the first one- make- tells the action to open a new document. click on 'Reset Swatches' and then hit play. it will run the action without making a new document.
