Hiya Limme, glad you found your way back.

I can't be of much help here i'm afraid. I don't use a Mac.

But my first guess was going to be that it sounds more like a system problem than a PS problem.

I'm thinking either bad ram, or bad sectors on the hard drive. When PS needs to use those resources, it runs into problems because of that. And that would also explain (kind of) why you don't get the problem when working on a smaller file -- those 'bad' areas are not being accessed by PS until you need more resources.

That's my guess.

Maybe Stu can help... he's a Mac-head too. Hey Stu?! Get over here will ya buddy!? [confused]
