P: Photoshop unusable after updating Intel macOS 26 Tahoe

New Here ,
Sep 18, 2025 Sep 18, 2025

Hello everyone,

Is anyone experiencing Ps not running properly after updating their Macbook Pro to Tahoe 26.0?

Every action takes 10 seconds to load, it's super laggy and literally unusable. I purged, I restarted, I reinstalled, I did it all - nothing. 

Any ideas? Is this a bug Adobe/Apple have to sned an update for?

16in 2019 i9, UHD 630, 32GB RAM, 500GB

Thanks, have a good day

While Photoshop and other Adobe apps have yet to receive compatibility updates for macOS Tahoe, our user @helpful_parent4032 has shared a Reddit thread that might help. Please feel free to try it and check if it helps: https://adobe.ly/4mvZVRY

Thank you!
I’ve downloaded the 7 day free trial version of Photoshop 25. It’s functional but not all of the features operate.
Looking to find out if it’s because its a free trial.
Thank you[moderator removed personal information]

If you have Photoshop 21.x, your subscription covers the current version so it shouldn't be a trial. Are you logged in to your Adobe account and paying for a plan?
