Adobe has announced that a new version of Photoshop is now available, allowing the popular photo editing software to run natively on Macs with Apple's M1 chip. This news comes nearly five months after Adobe announced that native versions were coming soon and after months of internal and public beta testing.
On mac m1, photoshop 22.4.2 crashed after patching it. Before the patch this one was working fine. Has anyone found the solution or is the patch not good? Because on Zii it indicates that it works for 22.4.2. Adobe Patcher 2021 Zii 6.0.7 – The right and greatest software to get any Adobe software activated in seconds by only one single click on. New Fix: According to the previous versions, Zii 6.0.7 has fixed InCopy, InDesign, Photoshop Elements, Premiere Elements, XD and Other problems if without a network and without an account.
After a few months in beta, Adobe has launched a version of Photoshop for Apple’s M1 chip, bringing a major speed boost to the popular photo editing software. However, it also includes a few limitations that might make users want to stick to running the Intel version in Rosetta 2.
Adobe says the M1 native version is 1.5 times faster than “similarly configured previous generation systems,” so users should definitely feel the difference. The app will update via the Creative Cloud updater and will seamlessly switch to the new version when relaunched. Adobe says legacy versions of Photoshop prior to 2020 will not support the M1 chip.
PetaPixel ran some speed tests comparing the Rosetta version to the native M1 app, and the speed boosts are very noticeable. In their testing using PugetBench, the Mac mini running the Apple Silicon-optimized Photoshop recorded the second highest overall score they’d ever seen.

However, the M1 version of Photoshop for M1 MacBooks and the Mac mini isn’t identical to the Intel version. Here are the features that aren’t available in the M1 version yet, according to Adobe:
- Import, Export, and playback of embedded video layers
- Shake Reduction filter
- Preset Syncing
- Share an image button / Quick Share
- Create new Library from document / Libraries Panel menu command
- Home Screen > Shared with you and Invite to edit / Collaborative Editing features.
- Opening or placing U3D formatted files
- Starting Bridge from Photoshop menus
There are also a handful of known issues Adobe is working on including Issues when exporting SVG files and a black screen when viewing a 3D document. Adobe offers workarounds while it works to fix the problems.
For most users, these won’t be debilitating limitations, but if you need any of the features here, you can always switch to the Rosetta version. Head to your Applications folders, right-click on the app icon, and then “Get Info” to bring up details and options about the app. Finally, check the “Open in Rosetta” box to force the Intel version to launch.
