Help from a Mac User Please?
When I try to use Photoshop on my 2000 Imac, it now says "scratch disk full." How do I empty these and/or remedy this problem. This is new after years of Mac use and no such problem. Please help?

1. somewhere in photoshop prefs it'll say where your scratch is
and i think (don't have ps installed on this machine), that there'll be a button there to clear it. if not, just navigate there in the finder and trash things manually.

your whole hard disk could be full if your imac only has one drive. find the hard drive on the desktop, select it by clicking it, then go file-> get info. the info window will tell you how much free space is on the disk.

it could just be that your trashcan is full. try emptying it and see if that frees up some space. otherwise quit using the itunes music store so much! you're filling up the drive :)

2. Your scratch disk is the hard drive space photoshop writes to to keep
your history and undos and clipboard. You must free up hard drive space
