Nik filters crashes Photoshop - macOS Mojave

[funkysmurf]

Hi all,

Has anyone experienced Photoshop crashes with Nik filters on macOS Mojave?
If so, have you managed to get it working again?

I've tried the suggested fixes suggested for High Sierra, but none of them work.

etc.

Running Photoshop CC 2017, crashes on both 2018 15" MacBook Pro and 2017 13" MacBook Pro.

Have you checked with DXO for a fix?

Thanks for the suggestion.
I've done that and the trial version works. The only unfortunate thing is that I'll have to pay for the software now.

Keep in mind DXO kept it from certain death by the Empire (Google), and has updated the coding to make it work with the latest PS CC and OS versions.

Have you tried to set "apply the filtered effect to the current layer" in settings? It works for me on High Sierra and may worth a try. A bit uncomfortable 'cause you always have to copy your existing layer before step in Nik. Let me know if this helps.

I'm running Mojave on a work (Fusion Drive) 5k iMac and Mojave at home (SSD) 5k iMac with 2019 versions of Photoshop and Nik Collection added into plugins and they work fine.

Hi, most of my Nik apps will open but the window is completely red (Analox, Color fx, silver fx), others work fine. Looks like some kind of GPU issue.

Running on iMac 5k Late 2015, Fusion drive, and (damned) macOS mojave (it worked completely fine on High Sierra).

Also, I am on Photoshop CC 2017, but I guess that's not the problem since the standalone Nik apps will open frozen in red screen as well.

Anyone experiencing the same?

If you bought the latest version from DXO, they were updated today for support of both Mojave and PS CC 2018

1.2.15 should have been compatible with Mojave as well
