Q: Photoshop resolution on Macbook Pro 15" Retina display too small
I've just bought a Macbook Pro 15" and I'm trying to use Photoshop, but the resolution its displaying the images at for 100% are too small. I have to design for the web, so need to be intricate with detail, but I'm finding it adjusts the resolution of the image right down. (I mean you can see the image clearly, but it's too small to edit). When I look at Safari and see a web page at 100% it's clear, but the same page displayed in Photoshop CC appears 50% of the size (even though it says it's 100%)
If I move the application window to another screen it adjusts it correctly – leaving all the pallettes, menus and tools correctly sized as they are on the retina display
Is there some way to adjust the way Photoshop CC displays images so it is more consistent with what you actually see?
There doesn't seem to be any answer on the Adobe forum, so hopefully someone here can shed some light.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), Photoshop CC

Looking at my installation of PS 6 on a rMBP, if you right click on the PS 6 icon in the Applications folder and Get Info, you'll see a check box right under the label colors saying "Open in Low Resolution." Try checking that.
