How to Clear Your Scratch Disk and Photoshop Cache on Mac



If you are a macOS user who regularly works in programs like Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro and Adobe Photoshop, you’ve probably encountered errors relating to a "scratch disk." The most common error is "could not initialize Photoshop because the scratch disks are full".


What is a scratch disk?


Scratch disk is your hard drive space used by Photoshop as a virtual memory when there is not enough RAM to complete a task. Photoshop allows you to assign several scratch disks: that way, it has more space at its disposal.
When working with large images and lots of layers, Photoshop is secretly chewing up your Mac’s space by rapidly creating a mountain of project temp files.

What to do when your scratch disks are full?


1. Clear your Photoshop cache

Photoshop has an in-built solution for deleting specific Photoshop caches. When these pesky caches aren’t removed automatically by the program, they can grow and take up a lot of space on your scratch disk.
To use this tool simply enter Photoshop in Mac and with an image open:
  • Click the Edit menu button.
  • Hover your mouse over "purge" to reveal 4 different options.
  • Undo, Clipboard, Histories, All. If an item is greyed out, that means it has already been deleted.
  • Select the specific item you want to delete or select "all" to delete all of your caches.
  • You will be warned that the purge cannot be undone, so make sure you don’t need a previous version of one of your projects and then click OK.

2. Delete your temp files


If the in-built solution on Photoshop doesn’t do the job for you, let’s hunt down the culprits manually. Look for files on your Mac that begin with “pst” extension and then a string of numbers followed by the file extension “.tmp”.
Delete Photoshop Temp
To make sure your scratch disk is empty, search for “Photoshop Temp” on your Mac and look within your entire Mac’s hard drive. Mac will take a couple of minutes to list down all temp files on Photoshop. Wait for a while until the entire list pops up on screen and then safely delete each and every temporary file from your Mac.

3. Clear your disk space


Once in a while it is advisable that you review the drive contents on your Mac. In this way, you can get rid of unneeded files and data and save a few extra chunks of storage space on your device. Head on to Apple Menu > About This Mac > Storage tab.
Optimize Disk Space
In the storage graph, you’ll see a “Manage” button. Tap on this option to optimize storage space on your Mac. Make the most of these Mac tools and save some additional storage space on your device.

4. Change your scratch disk


Follow these steps to change your scratch disk in Photoshop:
  • Click on the Photoshop menu
  • Go to Preferences and then Scratch Disk
  • Tick the checkbox to select or remove a drive as the scratch disk
  • Click OK
  • Restart Photoshop

Adobe Indesign: Preferences and defaults


Set general preferences:



This section covers preference settings in the General tab of the Preferences dialog box. For information on other preferences, search for the appropriate setting.

  1. Choose Edit > Preferences > General (Windows) or InDesign > Preferences > General (Mac OS), and then choose the type of preferences you want to specify.
  2. In the Page Numbering section, choose a page numbering method from the View menu.
  3. In the Font Downloading and Embedding section, specify a threshold to trigger font subsetting based on the number of glyphs a font contains. This setting affects font downloading options in the Print and Export dialog boxes.

  4. In the When Scaling section, you can determine how scaled objects are reflected in panels and how the content of scaled frames behaves.


    • Select Apply To Content if you want the point size to change when a text frame is scaled. If this option is selected when a graphics frame is scaled, the percentage size of the image changes, but the frame reverts its percentage to 100%.
    • Select Adjust Scaling Percentage to display the original point size with the new point size in parentheses when you scale text. If this option is selected when you scale graphics frames, the percentage size of both the frame and image changes.

  5. Click Reset All Warning Dialogs to display all warnings, even the ones you’ve already checked not to display. (As warnings appear, you can select a check box to prevent the warning from appearing again.)

  6. Set defaults:

If you change settings when no documents are open, your changes set the defaults for new documents. If a document is open when you change settings, the changes affect only that document.
Similarly, if you change settings when no objects are selected, your changes set the defaults for new objects.

  • Change default settings for new documents

  • Close all documents.
  • Change any menu items or panel or dialog box settings.
  • Specify default settings for new objects in a document

    1. With document open, choose Edit >Deselect All.

    2. Change any menu items or panel or dialog box settings.

Restore all preferences and default settings:



    1. When InDesign is behaving erratically, deleting preferences (also referred to as “trashing preferences” or “removing preferences”) often solves the problem.

    2. It’s a good idea to make a backup copy of the preference files called InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData. Instead of removing your preferences, you can copy these backup files over the problematic corrupt preference files and not lose any customizations.
      Mike Witherell provides a detailed list of which files are affected when you restore preferences in Adobe InDesign Presets (PDF, English only).

      1. Do one of the following:


        • (Windows) Start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.
        • (Mac OS) While pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.
      Various program preferences and default settings are stored in the Adobe InDesign preferences files. These files, including the InDesign Defaults file, are saved each time you exit from InDesign. For manual deletion or renaming, the locations of the preference files are as follows:


      • Mac OS
        InDesign SavedData
        Users/[user]/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign/Version [version]/InDesign SavedData
        InDesign Defaults
        Users/[user]/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version [version]/InDesign Defaults
      • Windows XP
        InDesign SavedData
        \Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version [version]\Caches
        InDesign Defaults
        \Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version [version]
      • Windows Vista or Windows 7
        InDesign SavedData
        Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version [version]\Caches\InDesign SavedData
        InDesign Defaults
        C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version [version]\InDesign Defaults
