What is going on with my Image Playground. I have tried multiple ways suggested from gpt and Google, but it only shows "Downloading support for Image Playground". 🥲

Without knowing what those "multiple ways suggested from gpt" are, it's going to be hard to give you meaningful suggestions.


What have you already tried?

A lot of people who are trying to be helpful in this forum post answers from ChatGPT. Most of the time they are either totally wrong or don’t address the problem that was posted. And the same is true for Google searches.


For KNOWLEDGEABLE suggestions search with this string (using Google or any other search engine):

ChatGPT and Google gave the same solution, like changing US English as the primary language in the settings, checking the photos library location setting, using MacBook's message Genemoji to force it open, deactivate and activate the Apple Intelligence&Siri.

Where does ChatGPT get it’s information? One way is by doing Google searches, so it’s no surprise that it gave the same (wrong) answer.
