Photoshop extremely laggy on Mac
I've recently updated to a Macbook Pro (13 "with an i5 processor) 2015 and I have noticed severe lag on the side mac and I was wondering if there is a way to solve this problem?
Many people are suggesting that my computer may be too low to run it, but I don't think that's true. I've used Adobe Photoshop CS6 on a junky 2010 Dell Inspiron with 6 GB of ram and an i5 processor running on the integrated graphics card intel and never met any lag at all, only when I was working on a document to 5000 x 5000 with 300 dpi, I noticed lag. In addition, I do not notice any problems with other programs in creative suite like Illustrator or Flash, so it makes me think that this might just be due to lack of Photoshops. Also, I'm starting to believe that my problem is persistent on Macs, given that my school also uses the imacs 2013 with built AMD graphics card in and meeting always lag of Photoshop, while my Windows laptop and the office has never really encounter any lag.
EDIT: Now, I strongly doubt it's the fault of my hardware. I tried just to make a photoshop document that is 100 x 100 with 72 dpi, and it continues to lag when you use the Brush tool or the pen tool.
Make sure you have installed the Photoshop CC 2015.0.1 update.
Make sure that you have installed all OS updates.
Try disabling the third-party plugins.
Try to set the preview font to zero size.
Try to kill the CCLibraries process (it will get revived in a few seconds).
Try turning off the generator in the preferences.

Can I download my photoshop CS5 bought for Mac on Windows 10? If so, how?
Sorry, but the license key is Windows or Mac, but not both.
The best would be to put $200 for an upgrade of cross-platform for Mac CS6.
Creative cloud now includes the features of Creative Suite Master Collection and Design Premium
Or the 2015 CC Photoshop monthly $ 10 plan photography.

Yes.
you are allowed installation on an unlimited number of computers. the only limitation is that you can only sign-in (and therefore open) CP programs on, at most, two computers at a time. but it is not a significant limitation, unless you have few internet availability.

I just bought 14 elements Photoshop and Photoshop first 14 for Mac (I have an iMac OSX) and downloaded and received periodic publications related to them. But try to install it after you type the serial number, I get the message that Adobe is unable to validate the serial number. I was chatting with the support of Adobes cat, who recommended to download the two files-dog again, but with the same bad result. Can someone help me?
(1) right click on the Finder on dock icon and select the option "Go - To Folder."
(2) you will get a text box, type in below mentioned command and then press 'return './ etc
(3) it will open the etc folder, look for file named "hosts" and the same screenshot of office.
(4) double click on the Hosts file, it will open it with TextEdit.
Let me know if you see any Adobe related as entries in the Hosts file 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com... etc?

How to upgrade the CameraRaw file in my version of Photoshop - CS5.1 for Mac?
I have Photoshop CS5.1 for Mac and I am trying to edit a my Canon EOS 70 d raw file, but I get the message that the file CameraRaw is obsolete. I also have the standalone version of Lightroom 6 and he accepts the file raw OK so its file CameraRaw version should be OK. If it is not possible to download the CameraRaw version I need is it possible to transfer from Lightroom?
For the camera, you need to Camera Raw 8.2 or higher. While LR 6 can handle this camera, CS5.1 cannot. You can use the converter free for DNG save in a compatible Camera Raw file for Camera Raw 6.X.

Hello
The serial key cannot be located within the program, however, you can try to download an app to Apple: Mac product Key Finder, which can help you to extract the key of your version of Photoshop.
