Adobe Brings Retina Display Support To Photoshop And Illustrator CS6  As A Free Update For All Users

Adobe Brings Retina Display Support To Photoshop And Illustrator CS6
As A Free Update For All Users..... if this is TRUE then how Do I get it. My CS is HORRIBLE visually. Does ANYONE know anything encouraging about this issue with Adobe CS and Retina Display???

As pointed out by John T Smith, you should post the questions in the correct forums to get swift replies.  However, yes Adobe has made its promise good and the blog to that effect is here:

Good luck.

  • Will retina display support in Photoshop be part of a regular, free update?

    Will retina display support in Photoshop be part of a regular, free update or will it be part of a new version upgrade?

    Anyone who knows about future release plans will be bound not to tell.
    I don't have one, but from what I've read the current version already works with the Retina display - it's just that is uses the high density display pixels in blocks of 2x2 (pixel doubling).
    Is this insufficient for your needs?  Is your desire just to see prettier fonts and icons, or maybe a bit richer looking document preview?
    I was reading something the other day that said the mouse only moves in 2 pixel increments horizontally and vertically anyway on a Mac equipped with a Retina display, so the Apple implementation is not completely like having a double resolution display.

  • Why Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 are so slow on my MacBook Pro early 2011?

    First of all sorry for my english
    I recently installed Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 and they tend to lag even on just during normal work operations like zooming, opening a file, selecting a tool, browsing menus etc etc.
    Cpu, Ram and Gpu usage are normal, I mean when I use these software there's at list 85% of free Cpu, 1GB of Ram still available, and 80% of free GPU. And I got 30GB left on my hardrive which is little but I believe is enough.
    So I cannot believe this slow performance is due hardware limitations. There must be some driver issue or something else.
    Anyone knows why CS6 is so slow?
    Software version:
    Photoshop CS6 13.0.1
    Illustrator CS6 13.0.0
    My Specs:
    Os: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    Cpu: Intel Core i7 2.3 GHz
    L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
    L3 Cache: 8 MB
    4GB ram
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M

    My experience is that Photoshop can demand and use prodigious amounts of memory and disk space, much more than one might expect from the size of the files being worked on. While I don't have direct experience with CS6, my daughter uses CS4 on a Macbook Air with 4 GB memory and she had 100 GB free (on a 250 GB solid state drive). CS4 is less demanding than CS6, and in fact with the SSD, it runs pretty well, even with just 4 GB memory (the solid state drive is basically like memory, in fact, in some ways). However after running Photoshop on some projects for a while, we noticed she had only 60 GB free disk space. After restarting her Mac, she had 100 GB free again. Photoshop CS4 was using up 40 GB of disk space! And this was simply editting some (multiple) photos from a digital camera. Photoshop not only has its own memory management processes, but it also pages to disk and uses disk space as "scratch space" in its own fashion. I think that it is inadvisable to run Photoshop with less than 100 GB free disk space, and that's with CS4, not even CS6. And if you don't have a solid state drive, the throughput might slow down immensely unless you have a lot of memory (I think someone else pointed this out already).
    Bottom line -- based on what I have seen with CS4, 4 GB memory is too low by at least a factor of x2 (16 GB memory would be even better), and I'd say a minimum of 100 GB free disk space is a must as well. I saw CS4 using more than 40 GB of "scratch disk space" and you are using CS6, which must use significantly more resources than CS4, and you indicate only 30 GB free space. That seems too low to me. I think other Adobe major software packages are similarly demanding, unlike any other software I have seen or used. For instance, I think you would have no trouble running MS-Office software (which is also known for using computer resources, but not anywhere as much as Adobe software).
    One thing you can do is when you notice things slowing down, not only quit all other software except for CS6, but also in the Finder, under the Go menu, enter
    /private/var
    under Go To Folder ...
    and then look in the folder called
    vm
    If you see swapfiles, add up the total space they are taking, and also the space taken by the sleepimage file. These are working to decrease the amount of free space you have and they can quickly grow to tens of GB when Photoshop and other Adobe softwares are running.
    Since it sounds like you have now upgraded your RAM, that should help, but you may find that the swapfiles and sleepimage files are taking even more disk apce faster and I think 100 GB free space is needed to avoid further slowdowns.

  • Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 updates fail

    I have subscibed to Creative Cloud and the uodater tells me I have updates to apply to Photoshop and Illustrator CS6. I would like to have these updates as there is no guarantee I shall be able to afford the CC subscription forever. However every time I apply them they fail with error U44M1P7. According to the Adobe help document I need to download the standalone installers; I did this with Illustrator and it failed in exactly the same way. For Photoshop it says apply the update from within Photoshop, but I cannot even do that now as the program crashes on launch.

    Run the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, let the application manager reinstall, try again.

  • Retina Display Support in Photoshop Elements 12

    I've just upgraded from version 9, mainly because I thought 12 would have Retina display support now, like CS6 does.
    To my surprise, it doesn't! What's the deal here?
    There are a *lot* of people buying MacBook Pros with retina displays, millions.
    Is this going to be addressed in a patch soon? I'm not going to wait for version 13 otherwise, I will just return my copy to Amazon and get used to one of the alternatives on the App Store.
    Please advise further. Thank you.

    Adobe probably won’t say publically if or when PSE might support Retina, but they may be assuming people who have Retina displays also have the cash for Photoshop?  
    PSE12 does support 64-bit memory spaces on a Mac, finally, so maybe that is also a reason to upgrade to it, and also a reason why the programmers were too busy to worry about Retina just yet.
    You could put in your request for Retina support on the feedback.photoshop.com area where Adobe supposedly monitors each discussion.

  • Issues with Mavericks and Photoshop and Illustrator Cs6

    My illustrator cs6 and photoshop are unable to save documents, every time I try to save or save as the save window keeps disappearing. Occasionally I can save if I am really quick, but on average this is not an option,
    The same happens when I try and open something through either program, the open window disappears before I can click on anything.
    I can open psd or ai docs in finder but just not in the program.
    This has only happened since I installed Mavericks.
    any help?

    Same problem for me with CS5 so I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CC--same problem again and Adobe does not know how to fix the issue.
    For a while holding down the shift key while opening Photoshop worked, then it failed yesterday. I'll try Alljeffedup's key combination solution.
    Current workaround is the Open With command in the finder.

  • Linking and updating between photoshop and illustrator cs6

    Im having trouble with linking my files from photoshop to illustrator on a mac.
    Im using CS6 and it used to work fine, I'm not sure if I disabled a option somewhere but now It doesn't update the files when I make changes.
    For example if I'm making a change in photoshop and saving it, It should ask me to update in illustrator but it doesn't

    @SP/RAA
    Jean posted perhaps the best solution for your problem.
    A template is an Illustrator document for startup. You can create a document...place all the colors you want to the Swatches panel....insert contents to symbol, brushes, graphic styles and so on. Then you can go File > Save as Template.
    Now...when you want to start a new document..you could File > New from Template. Then new document will have all the stuffs of the template, including other specifications like rulers viewed...guides...
    But even using template you cannot update a batch of documents...The template is only a document for start...and it does not keep linked to new documents based on it.
    Or you try via script (do not know how further it would help) or try the alternative given by Jean.

  • Deleted the CS6 trial, but App Manager thinks I still have Photoshop and Illustrator installed.

    I had previously installed, used, and then deleted the Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 trials. I recently subscribed to the Creative Cloud, but when I try to install Photoshop and Illustrator from the Adobe Application Manager, it just says they are "Up to Date," but I can't find them anywhere on the Mac or the Applications folder like they used to be.
    Do I need to delete a file or folder somewhere else for the App Manager to realize I don't have them installed anymore?
    Thank you for your help.
    I am currently running OS X, 10.8.2, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 with 4GB RAM.

    Run the Adobe Cleaner Tool then try downloading via the AAM again.

  • Why don't Photoshop and Illustrator open my files?

    Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 are not opening two .psd and .ai files I made three weeks ago with the same CS6 programs on the same Macbook. I tried to open them either directly doble-clicking on the files than opening them from the programs, but it always come a sort of "the program can not open this file".
    What can I do to solve this problem?
    Thank you!

    AriannaJuri, Are you sure the files that you are opening are not corrupted?
    Were they saved properly at the time when you worked on them Last!
    Edit: Can you try opening them on a diff system.

  • Moving Photoshop and Illustrator from HDD to SDD

    How can I move Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 from my computers internal Hard Drive to a new internal Solid State drive?

    You don't move, you need to install it again properly and point to the new location.

  • Why is Indesign CS6 not getting an update for retina?

    On several websites I've read al lot of programs will get an update, like Photoshop, Illustrator etc.
    Why is Indesign excluded?

    I'm sure it will happen in time. Each product team sets its own priorities.
    One behind the scenes thing going on is that all the Adobe applications have been moving to 64-bit, and support for Cocoa APIs on the Macintosh is becoming required. Essentially this means that ALL the code of the Macintosh applications must be rewritten. This has happened for Photoshop and Illustrator, but it's being completed for InDesign. This takes a tremendous number of engineer hours to accomplish.

  • Tablet PC calibration error in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator CS3 whilst in Extended Desktop Mode

    Hey everyone!
    I've run into a snag which hasn't bugged me before because I never used a second monitor, but now that I do, Photoshop and Illustrator don't function properly.
    I am running my Adobe products on my Lenovo X61 Thinkpad Tablet, which is Wacom PenEnabled. It's got the basic digitizer pen and pen pressure features, no stylus tilt or anything.
    Whenever I run Photoshop or Illustrator in Extended Desktop Mode so I can have a different window open on my external monitor and the Adobe app on my tablet screen, my stylus goes strange. It seems to think that the extended desktop is part of the Adobe window, so when I move my stylus to draw, the cursor will appear on the external monitor, usually proportionate to the size of the screen...ie. It interprets the external and tablet screens as one desktop and the top left corner of my tablet screen is the top left of my external, whilst the bottom right on tablet IS the bottom right on tablet, if that makes any sense...sorry.
    So I can't draw anything in photosho unless I set it back to standard desktop mode, or mirrored desktop. I've searched over the net and these forums and I can't find a fix for this. I was walking in harvey norman the other day and the Wacom Cintiq 12" was there on display, and it had the same issue with extended desktop and photoshop.
    Has anyone had this issue before and/or does anyone know of a fix for it? I'll keep searching around and playing with the computer until I fix it and I'll post any solutions I find here if noone else has one.
    My system details are:
    Abobe Photoshop CS3 10.0.0
    Adobe Illustrator CS3 13.0.0
    OS: Windows Vista Build 6001, Service Pack 1, 32bit
    RAM: 2GB
    HD: 18.2GB free Disk Space (out of 66.3GB on the Active Partition)
    Video: Intel GMA: Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family

    I'm using an HP tx2011au tablet pc, using adobe flash cs3 and have the exact same problem. it becomes decalibrated only while the flash window is open, and only while flash has a file open, and only when using an extended desktop. even if flash is open and it has no files open it works fine.

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
