Hi everybody!

I've just instaled MacOs Montery and... Photoshop doesen't work.

Basically everything fails.

S.O.S I need to use on my job.

Any solutions?

Thanks, 🙂

First, IF you have a job, roll back and get the job done FIRST.

2nd, Photoshop runs just fine on that OS (for many of us). So something isn't right on your system.

3rd, we really need more specifics of what isn't working. There are a few steps you can take to get to the bottom of this issue that is plaguing your Mac but some testing is in order.

Try trashing your Photoshop preferences. Press and hold Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) immediately after launching Photoshop. You will be prompted to delete the current settings. Better?

If not, try logging into another account (you may need to make one), still problems?
Try starting up in Safe mode (hold down Shift Key when booting), still problems?
You might want to try running a free utility like Onyx: still problems?

After McOsMonterey have been dowloaded Photoshop 2022 show different problems, I can't duplicate layers, I can't copy and paste, photoshop closes unexpectedly.
I restarted my computer into Safe Mode, and now Photoshop fail to launch.
To roll back to Big Sur is a little bit complicated for me.
What can I do?
