Adobe CS 3 and Mac OS X Lion

A recent visit at the Genius Bar suggests that I need to update/upgrade to OS X Lion, but my version of Adobe Creative Suite (CS 3) won't run in the OS X Lion environment.  This is a deal breaker for migration to OS X Lion.  Is there any updated information about CS 3's compatibility with OS X Lion?  WIth the looming expiration of MobileMe, I'm feeling painted into a corner.

Well still no solution. It's unfortunate that a company as innovative as APPLE always seems to fall short in the most basic areas. Never will understand it.
At this point I've given up. I got a copy of virtual box and Windows 7 for the one task I use every day, which worked in Safari 5.0.6.
Thanks all for the help. If anyone comes across this and has other suggestions I'm open to trying anything. As frustrated as I am with Apple and the Mac it's still my OS of choice.

  • Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5 - FDF Issue

    I have an issue that only happens when using Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5.
    When submitting a form from within a PDF, the FDF that gets sent is completely blank.
    Tested on Mac OSX 10.4 with Adobe Reader 9 - no issue
    Tested on Mac OSX 10.5 with Adobe Reader 8 - no issue
    Tested on Mac OSC 10.5 with Adobe Professional 8 - no issue
    It only seems to be a combination of OSX 10.5 and Reader 9. Does anyone have any clue about the settings of these two and what might be happening?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    yes you need the updates and patches.
    Only some of the drivers that Windows will automatically install at times
    and always make sure to insure it is using restore points
    do all the maintenance andsuch as normal
    use MS Security Essentials for AV is really top notch
    Clean disk space
    Use WinClone new program to inisure you have a restore image

    lower your font size unless you have difficulty
    MS Security Essentials is excellent
    Then again maybe time to investigate Windows 8 RP (which uses Defender)

    Windows has a software updater built into Windows and when you install the Boot Camp drivers then it will install an Apple software updater also. I believe Windows is set to automatically download and install your updates as does the Apple software Updater. They both will update the individual files it needs to periodically.
    "Microsoft updates" and "Windows updates" are basically the same thing in Windows. Are you talking about the "Windows support software" when downloading from Boot Camp Assistant? Apple installs a software updater for it's Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7 so you can do it manually or automatically.
    The "Hot Fix" your referring to is only for certain motherboards built from other Windows only computer manufacturers and does NOT pertain to any Apple computers.
    If you have a problem with your computer then it's best to ask a specific question so we can help better.

  • How do I set up my Time Machine and Mac Mini with Lion Server so i have one wifi loop in the house?

    HELP!
    So I have had a Time Machine wifi loop at the house for approx. 6 years. I run two Macbooks, 2 iPhones, 2 iTouch and a Samsung Smart Blueray on the loop.
    I just bought a Mac Mini with Lion Server. When setting it up I'm not sure what or how I managed to do, but I now have 2 wifi loops, one doesn't lock and niether will support the Samsung BlueRay. Also, each time I want to go online with one of the other Mac devices i have to relog into the wifi loop.
    Can someone please walk me through the fix. The mac Mini is plugged straight into the Time Machine to recevie its internet connection.
    Thanks!

    You often see this limit of 10 clients in wireless hotspots but I have yet to see it in an adsl modem.. most strange way to pay for a service that is really irrelevant how many clients you use.
    Have a go .. I recently setup a TC to help a guy run his Roku.. and this setup worked well.. I have no idea if it can work in your case.
    Lets say the IP you get is 192.168.2.1-10 .. doesn't matter what it really is. And the adsl modem is 192.168.2.254
    (Assuming they are private addresses.. if they are public IP you can just use the DHCP and NAT. )
    But go to the airport utility.. I think you need to run v5 at least to change DNS.. but you can do the same thing in v6 using static but no dns changes.
    Now you set the IP of the TC manually.. This address might need to be in the dhcp range of the modem to work. You can set the DNS to same IP as the router address.. ie home address of the modem. Or you can use another DNS.. whatever you like.
    Then set DHCP for clients that will join.. this can then expand the scope of addresses..
    It worked without a NAT error.. although I am not sure exactly how.. on paper it should not be able to work but did.. have a go.. otherwise there is perhaps another way.. but it is complicated.
    Give us an example from a computer plugged into the modem of what IP .. subnet mask .. Gateway and DNS you get. Then I can fine tune the values for it.

  • Cannot create pdfs after upgrades: Adobe 9.2 and Mac OS 10.6.2

    After upgrading to Adobe Professional 9.2 and Mac 10.6.2, I have lost the ability to create pdfs.
    The Adobe Printer (display says the printer is v. 9.0) lists the print job status as "Error" and has the following message; "You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer."
    I get errors when I try to create a pdf from a webpage. 
    I get the following error when I try to create a pdf from a word file: "Acrobat could not open 'AAA.docx' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
    (I am able create a pdf from jpg files... but I never really have a need to do this...)
    I have uninstalled Adobe Professional using the uninstaller (then emptied trash and restarted), then reinstalled Adobe Professional from disk (and restarted).  After the reinstallation, I still get the same problems, although I don't get any error messages until Adobe Professional updates itself from 9.0 to 9.2.  Before the Adobe upgrade, v9.0 attempts to print to pdf just act like the pdf is created (no error messages), but I don't get a save prompt, nor is a new pdf document anywhere to be found.
    Please help!!!

    Thanks!  I found the work around!!!

  • I've Firefox 6.0.2 and Mac OS X Lion. I can't 'Pause' any download in 'Downloads' window..!

    Hi!
    My system is:- Mac Pro (Early 2009)
    2 x 2.26 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors
    Memory: 6 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB
    Operating System: Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1
    I am using the latest firefox 6.0.2. Problem is that while downloading, if I try to pause a download in 'Downloads' window, then nothing is happening and download still goes-on. If I do cancel, then it cancels the download..!
    Please provide some solution.
    Thanks.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Radeon HD 3870 and Mac OS X Lion

    I've installed Lion on two systems, a somewhat older Mac Pro desktop (2007) and a somewhat newer Mac Book Pro (late 2009). It's running well on the laptop, and not so well on the desktop. The desktop is older, but it's pretty well stocked: 8 GB RAM, 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual Core processor. There are a number of issues with it, but the most vexing issues have to do with video.
    Apple Motion runs SUPER SLOWLY anytime I do anything that has to do with a video clip (which, given the product, is usually). Simply clicking on the filename for a video clip anywhere (in the library browser, in the timeline) sends the beachball o' death spinning anywhere from 30 seconds to a couple of minutes. It eventually subsides, and I can work with the clip (for that interaction...to move it or whatever), but the next time I click on it (or any other video clip) it's the same story.
    Also...
    Quicktime Player is hosed. It doesn't work properly at all. Not only does it fail to play some clips (that play just fine on my laptop...any played just fine before I upgraded to Lion), but the player itself behaves strangely. For example there are parts of a player window that behave as though they aren't there, so if I try to click on the title bar, or anywhere in the upper third, to grab the window and drag it to another location, it's as though I clicked on the desktop in the background and my computer switches to the finder. The windows themselves don't look right...the corners are no longer rounded, though I can that they should be - yet they're in a black bounding box.
    And in the finder, I cannot see previews for valid video files. Not in the icon view, or in quickview. These are files that worked fine before, and work fine on my laptop (they're fresh out of Motion in a format the Mac can read).
    I reset my SMC and PRAM, even reinstalled Lion.
    No change.
    This leads me to suspect the video card...
    Anybody else have this card, or having issues like this with another card? It makes it basically impossible to work with video on my Ma

    Hi Dima,
    No, it won't work with the 2|6. Sorry.
    If someone wishes to donate one, or if I find a cheap one on eBay, I'll see what I can do. But it would be very difficult to write a driver without access to the device for testing.

    Thanks

    Thanks pooja2087 but that doesn't work !
    But I have news :
    I have started without extensions (with "Maj") and then the windows "Nouveautés" appears but totally white, but that is working, i can close the windows and work with indesign. But the windows appears on next launch because I cannot clic on the "don't show next time" case (the windows is white).

  • Does Icloud sync for bookmarks between Ipad and mac pro with lion work for anyone?

    My wife has an Ipad 2 and Macbook Pro tunning Lion. Bookmarks and docs do not sync on icloud. I see from the discussions many are having this problem. My question is does this work for anyone? Am wasting my time trying to make it work?

    It works now, but it was a bit of a mess for a bit.
    I turned off bookmark syncing on all devices but one, I exported my bookmarks to the desktop and deleted them from safari, thus deleting them from iCloud, I then added them back from the desktop. On my other devices I deleted all my bookmarks, turned bookmark syncing back on and chose to merge.

  • Photoshop CS4 and Mac OS10.7 Lion

    Photoshop CS4 is not working with Lion.  How can I fix?

    Details are needed:
    First of all, what kind of Mac?  If it's one of the Macs with the infamous Intel integrated graphics (iMac, Mac Book, Mac Mini), we need not inquire further.  The number of bugs introduced by Lion in these machines is too numerous to go into.
    Otherwise, it would be useful to know whether CS4 is updated to version 11.0.2, Lion to 10.7/2, whether you Repaired Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility before and after every install, upgrade or update of the application and the OS, as well *** what other troubleshooting steps you have taken so far.
    Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

    PS— Beyond that, you may want to consider upgrading while you can, as CS4 will be out of the upgrade loop the moment CS6 is announced, and that should/could be in a matte of weeks.  The new Adobe upgrade policy will be one version back only as of CS6.
