Hi
I’m running a G5 1.8 Dual under OS X 10.3.5 with 2 GB RAM and I’m getting a recurring problem with Photoshop throwing up the ‘beachball’ busy icon from time to time requiring me to force quit.
I thought at first it was the scratch disk that I’d assigned so I reinitialised that but it didn’t help. I dumped the preferences and let it create a new one but to no avail. It doesn’t seem to happen at any specific action, sometimes it the open dialogue, other times it may be closing a file and so on.
I’ve got the memory bumped up to 70% in the preferences which isn’t excessive I don’t think so I’m stumped. Is this a case of getting rid of Photoshop entirely and reinstalling from scratch?
Anyone else had this?
