Hi,

I'm seeing a weird issue on my mac where when PS is running I get an error saying Scratch disk is full, I know when all RAM is being used PS will also use Hard drive space as the Sratch disk, but here is where it gets weird.

When PS is not running I've got like 250GB free on the hard drive, and after i power up Ps, the avaialble space shoots down to like 500mb, meaning there's not enough space for Scratch disk and I'm at a time where there's nothing left for me to delete to get more space, what the hell is photoshop doing that its taking over 250 GB?!

Get this moved to the mac forum. Sounds like PS is bugged but OSX users are more likely to give you a real answer.
