I am running the subscription PPCC 2014 on a 13 inch 2010 MacPro maxed out at 8 Gg RAM and 1.5 TB of storage. When I open the program I immediately get a message that the 3D functions will not activate because the video card does have enough RAM. All other aspects of the program work fine. Has anyone else had this problem and are there any known workarounds? Thanks for any ideas.
I think they are referring to the ram on the video card.
Given. But on a Macbook I don't think the video card is upgradeable.
I am totally ignorant of Mac systems past the very early ones. Hopefully, someone with more technical knowledge of the MacPro will be able to provide you with a detail explanation.
Sorry. I see I mistyped. My system is a MacBook Pro Laptop 2010 with 8 GB of Ram which it shares with the video card.

That seems like the standard warning about video memory. You need at least 512mb to run 3D. Evidently your configuration doesn't leave at least that much.
Are you planning render 3D graphics in PS?
If not...then don't worry about it.
One thing that comes to mind; did you go into your photoshop preferences and allocate enough memory to Photoshop and ram?
You nailed it. Maxing out the allocation did the trick. Many thanks.
