Why am I getting the message in the first photo every time I open a photo from ACR to photoshop?  Which option should I choose?   I thought I had all my settings set like they are supposed to be, thanks!

Once the edited image is complete in PS and you save in PSD format.  I usually "save as" and add the word "edited" to the file name and keep the original intact...........in case I want to go back and start over with a new edit. Is it OK to do that?

Just to clarify, you open the image up in PS, after adjusting it in ACR.  Then you save as a PSD file before you make any changes to the image in PS ?

you know me soooo well..........yes I have a couple more lenses that I want..........LOL!

After talking to a tech today at BH he had me sold on the WG.....but I'm afraid.............b/c of what I read in your article..........then I got to wondering if I would then need to purchase a special printer, etc........so I have pretty much talked myself out of buying a WG monitor.  

actually the $379 is on sale for $349  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/910902-REG/nec_ea244wmi_bk_ea244wmi_24_widescreen_led.html

and the $569 is on sale for $544   http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/880645-REG/NEC_p232w_bk_23_Widescreen_Professional_Graphics.html

neither one are wide gamut........but I've been going back and forth b/t these 2.  

I'm sort of back and forth........I've been looking at about 4 different NEC monitors w/ price range $379 $569 $899 (none of these are WG) and lastly $899 which is a wide gamut monitor.  The WG is a 27" and the others range from 21" to 24". 

I sure can, If I purchase a wide gamut monitor............will I need a specific type of printer when printing my own photos?  I don't want to purchase the monitor and then find out I will need a special printer.......I guess it is a dumb question...........but that is how my luck usually goes.........ha ha

I was thinking about purchasing a wide gamut monitor.  Does the printer require any specific requirements for printing your own photos? 

LOL!  OK, I'm set to  sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (8bpc) now, thanks!

It says Adobe RGB (1988) (8bpc)

I put the SD card in the computer and view the photos on the card and choose the ones I like and then open it w/ PS and edit from there.  I have never been able to figure out a better way......i.e. LR, etc.

Yes, I have it set on Raw + jpeg fine  and medium = 4496x3000: 13.5 M

I just looked and the image size is set to Large.........I thought I had it set on medium.  Guess I should change that.

Just now, Damien Symonds said:

Yeah, it's the 4GB of RAM.  That's only half of the minimum that Adobe recommends for CC.

That is what I was thinking. Thanks!

I have a PC desktop running Windows 7 w/ Service Pack 1 and Photoshop CC 2015. It is over 2 years old, and has 4.0 of RAM. Its hard drive has 1.69 TB free out of 1.81TB. The last time I shut down was just before posting this thread. I rarely run a cleanup program.

When editing photos in Photoshop CC it runs very very slow and takes forever to save an edited photo.  Per the list of requirements from Adobe I think I have everything.  One of the requirements is an OpenGL 2.0-capable system.  How do I determine if I have this capability on my desktop?
