Literally everything is slower than a snail

Report · Aug 19, 2022

The latest update is terrible. Since installing it, I've hardly been able to use Photoshop. Something as simple as cropping, saving, or adjusting the brightness/contract can take up to 5-10 minutes. On top of that, Apple updated to the latest Monterey OS overnight, and I think that also conflicts with the Adobe programs. Weren't these two systems originally designed to work together? They sure don't seem compatible now.

I also just reverted back to the previous version because I've heard other people having similar issues, and now upon launch, I get this:

Report · Aug 19, 2022

What kind of GPU do you have and have you tried updating the GPU driver from the manufacturers website

Report · Aug 19, 2022

Here are my specs, including the GPU. Apple updated to the latest version of Monterey, so wouldn't that have also updated the GPU?

Report · Aug 19, 2022

Updating Monterey does not automatically mean the GPU updated.

I'm on Monterey on a similar Mac Mini model and it is showing with the new PS update - the only difference is I am on Mac OS 12.2.1.

Looks like the Monterey update might have buggered something.

First try resetting your PS preferences. Go to PS Preferences/General and click "reset prefs on quit" and restart PS.

If that didn't work, go to Apple System Preferences/Security and Privacy/Full Disk Access and make sure PS is in the list and checked. Long shot but Monterey has caused issues without it in there.

Otherwise
