Curt Y Jun 28, 2013 2:17 PM (in response to gibsonjsh)This means your graphics card/driver is not up to specs for operating. PS will run but you will loose some of the bells and whistles of graphics acceleration.
In preferences/performance in right bottom check Advaced Preferences and set GPU to Basic that might help.

gibsonjsh Jun 28, 2013 2:35 PM (in response to Curt Y)Sounds good, I'll try that.
But the weird thing is, I have the latest CUDA driver, and I'm running a compatible graphics card.
Premiere CC and After Effects CC both work flawlessly and with no error popups (I installed the CUDA driver primarily for Premiere and After Effects anyway.) It's really strange.
I don't really need any kind of boost from the GPU for Photoshop CC, so I'll try setting it to basic or something. I'll report back momentarily...

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that. The CUDA driver updates are done indepently of Apple's OS updates. When I first installed the CC suite, I didn't have any CUDA drivers. I had to download and install them manually from this site: http://www.nvidia.com/object/mac-driver-archive.html. Once I did that, it told me everything installed properly.
Is this really an Apple issue, or an Adobe issue with some Apple GPUs that Adobe should fix? Are you an Adobe employee? How can I contact Adobe directly?
Thanks so much!

If you want to talk to Adobe you need to contact them directly.

Curt Y Jun 28, 2013 7:50 PM (in response to gibsonjsh)Photoshop does not use CUDA, but Premier Pro does. Otherwise all driver updates come with Apple OS, when OS is updated new and updated versions of drivers are added.
