Does CS3 play well under Windows 7 (64 bit)

I have just built an i7 machine using 64 bit Windows 7 RC for the OS. I then installed my CS3 package (and updated via network).
Premier capture of HDV/DV fails with the likes of Debug event with "TextPopup.cpp-273" and "HotTimecodeControl.cpp-387".
I don't want to waste debug time if there is a basic incompatibilty between CS3 and the OS or 64 bit version.
My package of CS3 has been working well on my old XP machine for years (but I wanted to improve the speed).
Does CS3 play well under Windows 7 (64 bit)? What should I be aware of moving forward? Advise?

My problem with capture seems to have been corrected by an update to the motherboard device drivers.
However, I did first try the "XP Mode" suggestion. XP Mode runs as using "Virtual PC". This two step approach requires that you first install the Virtual PC application on Windows 7 and then install "Windows-XP-Mode" as the OS on a Virtual PC. Before that, the motherboard must have "Virtualization Technology" turned on. This seemed a little cumbersome for a long term solution so I stopped before installing CS3 on the "Virtual XP Machine". I did a little more shotgun experimentation including driver updates and found that capture had begun to work.
To be sure of the solution, I did a fresh install of Windows 7 (overwriting previous disk contents), motherboard driver updates, and CS3 install (with updates). Capture is working for both DV and HDV modes. However, do note that my motherboard does now have Virtualization Technology enabled. This may or may not be a factor.
I have also noted that there is also an "XP Compatibility Mode" option available for applications (that is different from Windows-XP-Mode). Windows 7 presents this option by right clicking on the shortcut and selecting Properties/Compatibility.
Hope this helps the next person to stumble down my path.

Can I get an older release of Firefox? 36.0 does not play well with Windows 7.

Firefox 36.0.4 does not play well with Windows 7. If it opens at all, it freezes within a minute so the screen goes pale and I get the classic spinning circle of death. Then the header says (not responding).
Ideally I would like to drop back to version 32 or 33, but 34 and 35 had fewer problems.
Can I find older versions anywhere?

You can [[Install an older version of Firefox]] any time. But which will cause significant security risk. So If you can't use the latest version of Firefox, we recommend that you use the latest version of another browser.
If the latest version of Firefox is causing problems for you or you just don't like something about it, please give us feedback about it here:

Anyway head for the ftp for older version but please be careful with these: ftp://ftp.eu.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

Image.getScaledInstance() does not always work under Windows Vista

Hi:
I've run into some intermittent image scaling problems under Windows Vista (minus Aero effects) that I never experienced with the same program, same image(s), running same Java version under XP. The images I'm using are all JPEGs, and the problem appears to affect approx 1 out of 3 grayscale images (no color ones so far) w/o respect to size (ie: small ones can be problems while larger ones will work). Java -version shows 1.6.0_02-b06. I was wondering if anyone else out there has seen this, or can point out what I may be doing wrong. Sample code to duplicate follows.
Tx,

That does indeed appear to be a bug. I looks like it's having problems with the alpha value in the color model, so a possible workaround would be to change the color model the image uses before scaling. This may entail creating a new BufferedImage and drawing the old image into it.

Firefox 6 running under Windows 7 64-bit does not render fonts correctly.

The default sans-serif font for Firefox is Arial. Running Firefox 6 under Windows 7 32-bit, the font renders properly, but under 64-bit Win7, the font is too heavy, and bold or strong makes no difference. I run Win7 64-bit on a laptop computer and use Firefox 5 on it, and the fonts render properly. Possibly a Firefox 6/64-bit problem?

Hi strangerland, don't give up hope -- I'm using Firefox 36.0.4 on Windows 7 right now.
That said, I understand troubleshooting fatigue and when you find time to think about Firefox again, and have the opportunity to shut down and restart Windows, you might try testing in Windows Safe Mode with Networking, a mode that blocks some external programs that can interfere with Firefox.

Am trying to install a HP Laserjet 1012 to work under Windows 7- 64 bit and at HP Support, could find drivers for Vista -64-bit only.
I have tried to install this Vista - 64 bit driver and it does not seem to even print a test page.
Is there some other tweak that I need to make or
or
does it mean there will be no driver specifically usable for Win - 7 and I might as well junk the printer?
Thanks in advance.

I have an original version of Photoshop CS3. I run Windows 7 32 bit. After an update of the operating system by MS, my Photoshop refused to work, whereas before the MS update, the software worked perfectly. Please help. Ernst

Dear Sir,
I have an original version of Photoshop CS3. I run Windows 7 (32 bit) on my PC. After a recent (±2 months ago) update/upgrade by Microsoft of Windows 7 (32 bit) on my PC, I lost all functionality of the Photoshop software despite the fact that I have been running Photoshop CS3 on Windows 7 for the past 2 years without any problems. I uninstalled the software from my PC and tried to re-install it again. It would not re-install. After I press the software “setup” function to install the software, a window appears and a blue band runs across it, but then everything disappears from the screen again without leaving any message as to why the software would not install.
I have been informed by Adobe Helpdesk that Photoshop CS3 does not run on the Windows 7 OS. Due to previous experience that Photoshop CS3 had in fact run on my PC on Windows 7, I find it totally strange that I could not install the software again.
In fact the, same version of Photoshop CS3 is currently running without any problems on my laptop under Windows 7 (64 bit).
Please help if you can.
Kind regards,
Ernst Odendaal

How to install itune under Windows XP 64-bit professional with SP2?

I have iPhone 3GS for over a year and I have set it up at my work computer (Windows XP professional) with latest iTune and it work great. Recently our IT has upgraded our system and all of our new machines has Windows XP 64-bit OS.
I can't figure out how to install iTune under Windows XP 64-bit, to synch with my e-mail, contact and calendars any more?
Can any one help?

New machines? With XP 64-bit? Your IT department is being rather foolish, in my opinion, deploying new installations of XP 64 since Microsoft discontinued mainstream support for it (more than two years ago) and it's never really been satisfactory.
Anyway, there is no version of iTunes that supports the 64-bit version of Windows XP and almost certainly never will be. If you search the iTunes for Windows forums for "XP 64" you'll find threads describing the process some people have used to "crowbar" iTunes onto XP 64, with varying levels of success, none of them complete. Connecting to iPhones is one of the most problematic issues.
Regards.

Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit

Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit
Anyone had successs in this or another Bluetooth Keyboard after a bit of a struggle? What did you do to get it working? When I Add Device in Bluetooth it sees the keyboard but enlessly scans for it when I try to select and connect. The Rocketfish Bluetooth mouse worked just fine.

My friend, i have both, the bluetooth mouse and keyboard here that your talking about. and the keyboard was a struggle to pair with the windows 7 64 bit.... i think i spent 2 days working with it. and i didnt try anything special, i just kept trying to pair
it, and unplugging the dongle and working with it... and after a while. it worked... Lately though, i have been looking into getting a wired mouse and keyboard becuase of the delays and sleep time i have with my current keyboard(rocketfish). supposidly there
is a way around the delays but it disables all the options on your keyboard. IE the media buttons, and web browsing features. and my mouse keeps dieing off too....
Also, after researching these products more, i found that alot of people experienced similar problems with them, Being delays and mouse failure. Even with fresh batteries and all. The products werent meant to be used long term(2-3 years) for extensive use...
I dont know about you but i thinki paid 100 bucks for the pair so thats only 25 bucks a year... Which is kinda silly considering i coulda got a better one that wont cough up on me.
If anyone reading this finds a good wireless keyboard that doesnt delay, and a mouth that doesnt delay...(my biggest concern). Please mention it. i am very interested in.

Director 12 under Windows OS 64 bit

Do you know why Director 12 (as Director 11.5) uses only one core of the processors when running under Windows Seven 64 bits ?

Got the exact same problem aswell, finally fed up with it now as i just started up firefox and 14 new windows opened because of this bug, luckily my computer can handle them but someone with a slower processor it would have been a nightmare, needs fixing ASAP.
Reverting back to 3.6.3 until this issue is solved. (link for anyone wanting to do the same below)

itunes 11 freezes under windows 7 64-bit immediately and won`t do anything. Please help !

The first thing to do is make sure you are using the latest version of iTunes. Look on the Help/Check for updates menu option in iTunes, which will confirm that you have the latest version or enable you to download it.
The effective way to Sync the iPod is to add your songs to iTunes and then connect the iPod to iTunes after you have added your songs.
So if you have been connecting the iPod and then trying to add songs "to the iPod" - don't!
You add the music to iTunes and then sync the iPod with iTunes afterwards.
Next, try connecting the iPod to iTunes, if you get the "duplicate file message", can you post it here (exact wording please)?
Once you have the iPod connected to iTunes, click on the Device that appears on the left of the iTunes window. On the Device/Summary screen, choose (check) Sync only checked songs and videos. Providing the songs still have the check mark on in iTunes (the default when songs are added to iTunes), those songs will Sync with the iPod.
Notice the other options in additiion to Summary. Look on the Podcasts pane for the Sync option (to add Podcasts to your iPod) and also on the Photos pane for options for adding (or not) Photos to your iPod. If you change any of these options, you will need to press the Sync button afterwards for the changes to take effect.
Lastly (for now), you can only Sync the iPod with one iTunes library. If you try and Sync it with a second library on your computer, or with iTunes on another computer, all your previous songs etc will be removed and replaced with the new library.
A thought... could the duplicate file message be because you have two iTunes libraries on your machine?
