Many of you might face that Photoshop CS4 crashing so often on Mac. There are few reason behind it. let me tell you in-details….
The main culprit is lack of OpenGL support by Adobe!!! this feels bad when we see a company like Adobe release unstable Version of the application to market when the End User is the sufferer. In this case they release Photoshop CS4 which hardly support OpenGL.
After googling for a while what i found is insane!!! at Adobe Support 95% of Photoshop CS4 solution is related to OpenGL where they told to update users Graphics Card Driver or if that didnt work they told to disable the OpenGL Drawing option from Preference panel.
But what on earth i can possible update my Mac OSX Graphics Card Driver cos there isnt any option to do that!!! so the only option that we have is disable the OpenGL Drawing option from Preference Panel.
All u have to click on the Photoshop Menu > Preference > Performance and then disable the OpenGL Drawing Check Box. Thats it!!! But even after this if u face the Crashing problem then it might be your Font Library that is not supporting by Adobe!!! please check my another article on this.
