Today I downloaded the latest mac update on my macbook and since then photoshop on my mac has been stuttering. Opened a file and thought that was the problem but now still getting the stutter whilst only on a blank canvas. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. 

 

My gpu is fine and I have enough ram. Scratch disks have 50gb so that cant be the problem. 

 

Any help would be much appriciated.

Hi @Graphicdan,

 

Sorry for the delayed response, and thanks for sharing the details. To help us better understand the issue, could you please provide a bit more information?

  • When exactly did the stuttering start? Was it right after the macOS update?

  • Could you share your System Info (Photoshop > Help > System Info)?

  • Does turning off the GPU (Preferences > Performance > uncheck Use Graphics Processor) improve performance?

  • If not, please try resetting Photoshop preferences and see if that helps. Steps here: Reset Photoshop Preferences.

 

Looking forward to your response so we can troubleshoot further.

Regards,

Srishti
