Laggy Mission Control on MacOS Sonoma

[alexanderh37663024]

Mission Control is laggy when Photoshop is Open. This is especially true when it is the "active window" but it is still present even with it isn't the active window. This is actually true with Indesign and Illustrator as well. Here is a video comparing the lag when Photoshop/Illustrator/Indesign is open versus when it is not.  I'm using the most recent version of Photoshop (v. 25) but It happened in the previous version as well which is why I updated because I hoped it would fix it.

Apple is expeciencing LOTS of bugs and troubles with older intel-based laptops post sonoma-update. So, it's a combination of the two.

I'm not seeing problems on Intel/Sonoma.

[Filip5E9A]

Good for you!

[Lumigraphics]

It is good for me and also information for the developers that its probably something on your computer rather than a general problem.

just a quick question.

I havent upgrade after the laggy animation.

Does anyone have the manget app on sonoma?

Is it fixed in 14.4 update or still same?
I have faced same issue & then downgrade to ventura & in peace.
Let me know if it's fixed.
Thanks in advance.

Just wanted to let everyone know that with my recent upgrade to M3-chip I don't have any laggy animation with adobe software. Smooth as silk

I had the same issues on MacOS Sonoma. For some reasons, i tried using my additional monitor then drag photoshop and illustrator into monitor as full screen desktop, apparently everything works smoothly 🙂

Same issue. Not fixed. macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 

[regressv]

After a lot research I found out its a sampling display setting.

If you run native display resolutions it doesnt lag...

when you change the current resolution then the lag begins.

Running fine on my 4K monitor (but everything is too small, especially photoshop that doesnt have setting for bigger UI)

So check your resolutions and see!

Does anyone know if this has been fixed in Sonoma 14.5?

[dimitrisp64330984]

still got problems in scaled resolutions i dont know whats happening but this sucks.

[regressv]

Found a permanent solution.

Download BetterDisplay

and disable HIDPI

lag fixed

[regressv]

its ridicoulous not having a proper answer both from adobe and apple . its been a year now. In ventura everything works fine. This really sucks. Whats going on with the resolution?

[Sohaibsibi]

Open photoshop. Click on windows tab & find application frame & uncheck. 
Thank me later,
Enjoy

I updated here hoping it would be resolved, but the problem persists. Indeed, when I disable the application frame, the lag disappears! It is clear that the problem is with the Adobe applications.

Thanks for the tip!

[Sohaibsibi]

You're most welcome.

[javierm69230795]

OMG! thank you so much!

Has anyone updated to Sequoia and can tell if the problem still persists?

[precise_think5782]

I am on Air M3 (Sequoia) and problem is still there, but it is not as laggy as it is used to be. 

[Sohaibsibi]

Open photoshop. Click on windows tab & find application frame & uncheck. 
Thank me later,
Enjoy

[alanlsbh]

The problem is that I don't like working with the application frame unchecked.

[alanlsbh]

Adobe has released the 2025 version of the applications, and I’m going to test it on my brother’s MacBook, which is running Sequoia.

[alanlsbh]

The lag continues on Sequoia and with Adobe 2025 applications.
