Hi,

 

We're sorry about the trouble with Photoshop. Would you mind sharing the exact version of Photoshop you're using along with your computers macOS version?

 

You can try optimizing the preferences of Photoshop using the steps suggested here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-photoshop-cc-performance.html

Thanks for the info however, the screenshot you shared does tell us the version of Photoshop you're using. Please ensure you have all available updates for Photoshop & macOS installed on the machine.

 

Applications do not have access to all the Ram available on the computer as some it might be reserved for the operating system. Since you have the Itnel Iris plus graphics on the computer, please try disabling the option to Use graphics Processor from Photoshop through the Performance tab under Preferences. Once done, quit & relaunch Photoshop to check if that helps.

 

Regards,
