I am having major lag with new version. When I try to move the arrow for adjustment on a levels layer they just sit there, When I click my shortcut key for zoom I end up with a streak across my file on the layer I was working on because I assume it is ready to zoom but it hasn't caught up to me. I tried the older vs and it seemed to be ok so thought I would try it on this batch of files I have to edit to see if the new vs is the real issue. This has been going on awhile and it just dawned on me it could be the new vs. I have checked my hard drive and I have 667.74 free out of 1 TB. I ran CleanMyMac. Doesn't help. Open to any suggestion. I attached my computer details

That isn't working. I made sure the one I wanted was open and only it. I opened two files in ARC. One opened in 2021 & one in 2022. I thought maybe one had previously been opened into the newer version so made sure everything was "really" closed, opened 2021 and then opened two files I knew had never been opened. Before they opened in ARC PS 2022 popped open (can tell by the picture) then the two files went into ARC. When I clicked open in ARC they went to 2022. I then verified 2021 was still open and it is but empty

I want to revert back one update of photoshop. Where do I change the default so that when it goes from ACR into photoshop it will open into adobe photoshop 2021 (vs 22.5.4) instead of adobe photoshop 2022 (vs 23.1.0)?

Why do we search an hour before we ask but thank you for quick response.

I'm trying to setup elements for my husband on new PC computer with windows 11. Since his old vs 5 wouldn't work had to get 2022. Is there a way to customize shortcut keys on it or are you stuck with what they give you? I've read and where it says to do it doesn't exit and I just now found one article that said it doesn't exit so decided to ask instead of googling any more. Since he only uses it for very basics cropping, resizing, and adding words I'm hoping windows 11 will play nice with him since it was our only choice. The old way of flattening layers has changed and a shortcut key would be best. Thanks!

No it was already off.

Thanks for your help. I’ll wait a few days and give you an update.

I already had the automatic graphics switching turned off. Do I leave the below recommendation of change it back? History is lowered. I've turned off CL & 30 Bit. It is working some better I realized later the point I got so frustrated I was working on a rare 16 bit image. It is much better with the 8 bit.

Sure. Hopefully this is what you want.

I just read through that link which some was over my head but it did say to keep everything updated. I am running PS 22.52. I was afraid to go to 23 but think I should? Sorry there is no edit button so I couldn't combine these last three thought

So basically you are saying there is no solution since I can't change the graphics card? This really didn't happen with Mojave. Sure makes me sorry I updated. Sigh

I tried the above and no better. I timed how long it took to turn off layer with eyeball and it is 2 sec. and 2 sec to turn back on and that is being generous!

Thank you! I'll let you google before I attempt Adobe Wonder why Mojave had no issues.

I just upgraded to Catalina over the weekend. Ever since, PS is lagging. It takes longer to save a file, when I click on eyeballs to turn layer on off a lag, click on "\" to select masked lag, etc. Stats are: MacBook Pro 2018, 2.9 GHz 6-core intel Core i9, Memory 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4, graphics Radeon Pro Vega 20 4 GB intel UHD graphics 630 1536 MB, 2 TB with 570 GB free. Yes, I have a 50 megapixel camera but the computer has been handling them just fine until Catalina. They have always taken awhile to load in bridge but PS ran smooth. I have CMM and have run it several times and ran a deep clean. My desktop is relative clean and my trash is empty. I am bad about having too many things open but that's nothing new and with that said, I've closed everything and the issues are still there. I'm also bad about opening too many files at once with no problem on Mojave and I only have one open with this happening. I turn off every night. Suggestions on what might be causing this?

Is there already a thread on how to configure a MacBook Pro laptop? I researched but didn't find anything. I have a 15 in. but appears it is either a 14 or a 16 now. Thanks!

I fixed it! I think it must have been a combination of two things. Resetting preferences fixed the issue using file/save as but my shortcut key was still saving "save as a copy". I reset my shortcut key and now it "appears" to be working properly.

I reset the preferences and didn't change it other than now it is checked whether I do a .psd or a .jpg

No.

You're right. When I go to "Save as" the "copy" box ALWAYS has a check in it. How do I get rid of that default? I never had it before. If I do a "save" the copy box is unchecked. I've always done "save as".

No I'm not saving as a copy. Or at least I don't think so!

The latest PS vs is driving me nuts. When I go to save a file whether I save as a .psd and close or whether I safe as a flattened jpg file, or a .psd as a jpg I get a box asking me if I want to save changes to .ARW file. See attachment. I did a save and it just does a .psd file. I did a cancel and I can't tell it does anything. I'm also attaching an image of my "file handling" settings. I think I have your latest recommendations. Thanks!

I did add them. It just didn't seem to fix the "one" issue. But they are there now! Thanks again.

This one didn't work. I can rename files but it is when I try to use the "/" that it blocks me. I'm ok with this. Thanks for your help with this. The time consuming issue is fixed!

Thanks! I had not tried that button and that fixed the issues of not being able to rate, delete or do anything in Bridge with those files! I'll read the other link next.
