I want to invert an adjustment layer's mask from white to black. I can't seem to find an invert action.

  1. select the adjustment layer
  2. Channels panel
  3. "Layer [xy] Adjustment" > "" menu > Invert

Can't you just....

Select the Adjustment Layer
Layer > Invert (Ctrl+I)

 

Windows shortcut, may be CMD on a Mac

Works with the retail and the beta on my Mac. I tried with layer masks and adjustment layer masks.

What am I doing wrong here?

You are using a pixel layer as a mask there. What you want is to use an actual mask layer, so after dragging the rectangle to the mask position in the Layers panel, right-click the rectangle layer and select Rasterise to Mask to actually turn it into a mask layer. You can then use the cmd+I shortcut to invert the mask.
