VS 26.6 Photoshop get only black screen when open image from RAW into PS

[NancyA]

PS 26.6 evidently does not like the processor on macbook pro 2015 (screenshot of specs). File is fine in RAW but when I try to open in PS all I get is a black screen.  I googled and found it had to do with the processor and the  "graphic processor" under performance had to be turned off which I did and then it does work.  But today I had a really bad lag to the point I had to close and reopen when I tried to move a copy/pasted layer from another file and the copy/paste was tiny.  My first thought was the processor but could be way off on that thinking.  Have you experienced this and if so is this the only fix for now?  If I go back to 2024 it works.  Sequoia is up to date.

 

Thank you!

For now I have rolled back to vs 26.5 and it is working properly.  On MAC  forum it appears to be a known issue and they are supposedly working on a fix.

Adobe keeps pushing out crap. Resist the urge to update for only the sole reason of "Just because..."

The lag you experienced can definitely be traced back to disabling the Graphics Processor performance boost thing.

In reality, the only "fix" at this point is to stay on 2024 until Adobe gets their act together. Honestly, you really don't NEED the latest and greatest PS, unless you are using the new AI / Fancy Modules. Photoshop at its core is still Photoshop. Just like CS6.

I know! I generally wait until it gets stable before do anything.  I'll set on this for a while and be very content!  Thanks!
