PhotoMecanic is very slow and pixeled
« on: May 31, 2016, 03:34:58 AM »
Hello,
I use PM 4.6.9  and Mac OS 10.11.1

All of a sudden PM has become very slow and shows pixeled images.
I tried as well a trial version : Photo Mechanic Version 5.0, build 15800 (e6ecc1c)

The problem is the same.
Do you know what to do ?

Kind regards. Maarten

Maarten,

I suspect that PM's cache folder has become damaged.  I suggest manually emptying it.  To do this, quit PM, then switch to the Finder.  On the Go menu choose "Go to Folder..." and enter:

~/Library/Caches/

Look for the "Photo Mechanic" directory and drag it to the Trash.  Empty the Trash.

Launch PM again.  If this doesn't solve your problem, please let me know.
