Hello

I cannto enlarge the icons, tools and text size on my photoshop which is the latest version 24.0.1

updated...but there's no option to do this. I am working with an i-mac 12.6. 

Any help would be appreciated. It's impossible to work like this...

    It looks like you are using a Mac. The option you highlighted, UI Scaling, is disabled because it cannot work on a Mac. UI Scaling was added to Photoshop to support fractional scaling in Microsoft Windows, but Apple does not provide an equivalent feature in macOS. That is why the message in the option’s tool tip says “Macintosh computers always use auto scaling.”

     

     

    However, you can still use the UI Font Size option because that does work on a Mac. If you think the tools are also too small, then also select Scale UI to Font. If you increase UI Font Size and select Scale UI to Font, then the tools and UI do become larger on a Mac.
