GPU Acceleration Required M1 MAX

Community Beginner ,
Oct 30, 2023 Oct 30, 2023

Since yesterday I have problem with Photoshop 25.1 on my M1 Max Macbook Pro.

Everytime I summon camera raw, it says "Camera Raw requires graphics processor acceleration to edit photos." I was using it daily until a couple of days ago. I'm also attaching a couple of screenshots to see it see my gpu but still...

Maybe it was the beta I installed and then uninstalled that messed it up?

Also I noticed that when you have the beta installed if you open a 16bit file, Photoshop will crash.

I fixed going in the Finder menu click on Go and find - Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/GPU and deleting this folder. then restart everything

same issue, Photoshop shows M1 in performance, but Camera Raw does not recongnize M1 as GPU. Worked up until today... I noticed that 25.1 was installed over the weekend. Any leads on this? I have to have camera raw.

Hi @R3nrs! Thank you for reaching out! The Finder menu is nothing but Finder, the default management application—essentially the Mac equivalent of File Explorer on Windows.


Hope this helps!

I have the same problem, I can't open CameraRaw in Photoshop, the dialog box appears: "GPU Acceleration Required - Camera Raw requires graphics processor acceleration to edit photos."

Photoshop was working perfectly, and today this happens out of nowhere. I've already gone to Preferences > Performance and everything is fine, "Use Graphics Processor" is already enabled on my Video Card, NVIDIA T1000 8GB is being recognized by the system. Help me please.PREFERENCES.pngPREFERENCES_.png
