GPU Acceleration Issue

Hi,

I have a concern pertaining to GPU usage on my Mac. It just all happened after my Adobe Photoshop and Bridge automatically updated. I edit photos almost everyday and to my great surprise, I get this prompt message saying "CameraRaw requires GPU acceleration to edit photos". When checking other apps subscribed just like the Adobe Lightroom, it works smoothly and fine.

 

Can someone relate? Anyone can help me out? Thanks in advanced!

I can relate, pjn. Turn off auto-update, for one, so no surprises. Wait a few days before updating to see what others discover

The webpage Jeff suggested is a good starting point, especially since you did not disclose what CPU/GPU you machine has or its age.

For an example, Upgrading your GPU driver may require purchasing a new machine.
