Ok I have upgraded my Photoshop CC 2017 version 2017 1.0    I am operating the latest Mac OS on my iMac.  Now every now and again. At least twice a day. When i jump over to Lightroom or any other program then return to Photoshop. All my working windows are Black, All the Pallettes are gone and the Menu bar is gone. Nothing i do brings it back to normal. Opening a new file results in a Black window, Nothing fixes this except closing the program and restarting it.   Interestingly, i can still save an image but can't see it tor the progress bar.   PLEASE HELP!

Below are screen captures of my problem.

    Not correct The Photoshop CC 2017 0.1 is not working correctly. I had the Graphics card changed and it still happened. I reverted back to Photoshop CC 2017 0.0 and its working fine.  This in my opinion equals a Photoshop comparability problem.
