Right now, from the information that you provided, buying a new display is not going to fix your problem. We need to get you Calibrated and straightened out BEFORE you spend money on a new display. Now, will you eventually be purchasing a new Display? It's plausible, but I want to see if we can get things working out first; I hate wasting money and would feel terrible that you fork out $500 (or whatever) only to be right back at square #1.

You need to convert in Adobe Camera Raw. Raw File Created by Camera >> Loaded into ACR >> Converted to the sRGB Color Space >> THEN you do your Raw Edits >> Finally, your Photo is imported into Photoshop already in sRGB and you do your final edits. This way what you see is what you (should) get. WYSIWYG. No surprises. No colors changing on you. What needs to change in your workflow is when converting to sRGB takes place. You do not want to edit in Adobe RGB (1998) with ACR, keep Adobe RGB (1998) in Photoshop, then have your colors shift because the default color space with .jpg files is sRGB!!! That's why we want you to be in sRGB at the start of your edits, because as soon as you save as a .jpg / .jpeg, your colors WILL shift if editing in Adobe RGB (1998) or Prophoto (Lightroom's default and ONLY color space.) Before you drive yourself nuts, let's make sure your Photoshop and ACR are setup correctly: Setting up Photoshop

Agreed. FreeFileSync

I switched to FreeFileSync. I'm liking it so far.

Not at all, it looks great.

Thank you so much Brian! this is exactly what I needed to hear to push my timeline up. Appreciate it

There's your problem!! Your Video Card is not powerful enough for the current versions of Photoshop. That video card is fine for "General Computing," like wasting time on Facebook, watching YouTube Videos, answering e-mails, paying bills, etc. Everything else BUT Photoshop. ACR now uses the Video Graphics Processor (Video GPU) in order to function these days. Currently it's still using the CPU / Low-end GPU to work, but Adobe is warning you as time goes on, this will be an issue and eventually ACR won't load at all. Time for a new Mac!! No software fix for this one. Well...you could downgrade to an older version of Photoshop CC that last worked with your computer and STAY THERE. No upgrading for you. Those are your two choices, but you really need a new computer. Start saving. This is such a common problem now, that I've written a very long article about this topic: Today's Modern Photoshop

Thank you! I really appreciate you revising the thread. This helps!

For the "high resolution" ones, don't resize at all. Send every pixel your camera took. For the "web resolution" ones, yes, resize to 2048px.

Yes, using Image Processor. Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor.
