Adobe LightRoom Won't work well in Leopard

Don't install Leopard if you use Lightroom. It slows down to the point it is unusable at least for me.
After I installed Leopard and found LR not working, I found a note on Adobe site which says it isn't compatible yet but will be in the future. No date given
I believed some of the reviews that said Leopard works without problems. Now I think I have to go back to 10.4

I'm glad to hear that.
I have 1.5 Gig memory on a G5 dual processor desktop. With Lightroom loaded I appear to still have about a third of the memory unused.
Lightroom looks all right when I open a catalog, but if I run slideshow, for example, the images come up fuzzy with a "loading" footnote on the screen and very slowly come into full focus.
If I try to adjust a tone curve in Develop, the curve lags behind the mouse or will not move at all. Therefore there is no chance of making a small adjustment. (OOPS, this seems to have cleared up since I shut down for the night and reopened it)
I still have image sharpness problems, though. If I open a new image, the image is sometimes sharp for an instant and then a "loading" box appears and if the loading stops, the image is stairstepped. sometimes the notation "working appears" The notations seem to stay on for an excessive length of time.
Any magnification brings very bad stair-stepping especially of straight lines, but also on a portrait image. these are a variety of file types including jpg and nef raw files.
Thanks for letting me know yours is working. I think some of the cleanup maintenance I did on the system may have helped. Your note encouraged me to keep trying a while longer before restoring Tiger. Thanks.
If you have any thoughts on the image quality issue, I would like to hear it.

  • Adobe Reader won't work

    Hello
    I use Windows 7 (64 bit). I've spent a couple of days trying to get Adobe Reader to work. I need version 9.5 or higher in order to fill out an important tax document. When I click on the icon the program will come up for a few seconds and then it disappears by itself. I have repeatedly removed both adobe reader as well as acrobat using both the adober clean up program as well as the windows uninstall program. I have tried re downloading all 3 versions. The same problem continues to happen. I desparately need to find a solution. Thanks.

    Hi again
    I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to help much - even though I feel like
    I've just finished an intensive adobe seminar. So, that said - I'm stuck
    again. Thanks to you I got Adobe Reader 11 loaded and was able to fill out
    and save the tax form as a pdf file. When I get into the the site to file
    the form though I get the following page when I try to open the saved form:
    Please wait...
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the
    document, your PDF
    viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or
    Linux® by
    visiting http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit
    http://www.adobe.com/go/acrreader.
    So - I'm sort of back to square one - and, I have until midnight est to get
    it figured out. Do you have any ideas?
    Take care,
    Tina

  • 64 bit Lightroom 2.5 work well with 32 bit Photoshop CS4?

    Anyone know if 64 bit Lightroom 2.5 works well with 32 bit Photoshop CS4?  Any problems or conflicts?  Or should I stick to 32 bit Lightroom 2.5?

    It works fine, but the default will be to use the 64bit version of CS4 (which is also installed along with the 32bit version).
    If you want to use the 32bit version of CS4 the easiest way is to open the 32bit CS4 before sending files from LR. I only have a few plugins that don't have 64bit versions, so I mostly use the 64 bit version of CS4, but occasionally I do use the 32bit version and that's how I do it.

  • I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari  8.0.4 .  Does anyone have a solution ?

    I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari 8.0.4 . Does anyone have a solution ?

    If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
    If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    For a "blocked plug-in" error, see Step 4.
    For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
    and confirm. Close the window. Then select
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
    In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
              Delete All Site Data and Settings
    then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
              When visiting other websites
    From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
    b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
              Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Step 6
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
              Flash Player (failing).plugin
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 7
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 8
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked 
              Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
              Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 9
    Select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

  • FCE 3 work well on Leopard??

    Hello there Mac Gurus,
    I am getting a Macbook Pro and am wondering if my old copy of FCE HD 3 will work well with Leopard or if I need to buy the 4 upgrade.
    can you help she a little light?
    Thanks!
    d

    Hi Dairlo
    I also have a Macbook Pro and FCE3.5 HD works well under leopard. There should be no problems, if you are working only with SD this should not be a problem, if you start shooting HD then consider upgrading to FCE4 as this allows SD/HD on the same timeline!!!

  • Adobe Apps Won't Work

    I upgraded to Tiger finally. Upgraded to Final Cut Studio as well. After the upgrades, all Adobe Products decided to quit working. Also, DVD Studio Pro won't work either.
    System Information:
    - Dual 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5, 4 GB DDR SDRAM, Running 10.4.6 with all the latest software updates installed.
    I have tried to repair disk permissions, delete preferences, delete .plists, ran Onyx and nothing has worked. As well, Tiger just seems to run slower compared to Panther.
    Photoshop 7.0.1:
    - "Could not initialize Photoshop because there is not enough memory (RAM)."
    Illustrator 10.0.3:
    - Bounces twice in the dock and that's it.
    After Effects 6.0:
    - "After Effects error: Unkown Bravo Error"
    - "After Effects error: invalid container"
    - "After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize AGM."
    At this point, the only thing I know to do is erase the whole hard drive and start over. Any suggestions?

    Well, I wiped the hard drive clean and re-installed everything and now the Adobe Apps work fine...

  • HP Printer Won't Work With Snow Leopard

    Hi, I hope you can help. I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and my HP printer won't print. It is a Laserjet 1015 and new drivers are meant to be on the list with SN. My iMac recognises the printer is there but cannot make a connection. I am networking it using an Airport which is working fine. I have even reset the printer system and deleted the printer and added it again but after starting to process a document to print it just stops.
    The other thing is that Pages v 1.0.2 also won't work now. I can open the software, but it can't open any existing documents nor will it open a new blank template. This is my work software (I'm a journalist) so this is a real worry. Any suggestions??
    Thanks so much
    Jo

    Hi JoJoh,
    I can't be of much help with the printer but I just checked my "Pages" and my version number is 4.0.2. I'm using iWork 09. Perhaps you need to update? I just checked the "Snow Leopard Compatible" site and found "Apple Pages 4.0.2" is compatible. It didn't mention 1.0.2. I'm so sorry. That's pretty rough when it's how you make your living.
    As for the printer, I have an HP Photosmart C4580 which wouldn't print. I finally just deleted all the printers on my MacBook and used my Snow Leopard install disk and selected the "Optional Install" which allowed me to just reinstall the printers. My HP is now working fine. I do feel like this is just a work-around until HP gets things sorted out. I say that because even though my HP now works, the only place it shows up is in my users folder. It's not in my Applications folder, but as long as it works for now, I don't care.
    Hope I was of some help to you. Best of luck!

  • Gametrailers won't work well in Safari any more.

    I used to have no problems with running "gametrailers.com" before, but now there are some flash elements in the page that won't work.
    The flash based "log in" function is placed at the bottom in HTML design, the flash based news banner doesn't show and some videos "can't be found" when you press a video you want to watch. This worked fine before and works perfect on FireFox. But I don't want to use FireFox.
    Help me.
    There was some kind of message about the page being a "not trusted page" or something. I don't remeber what I did, but its gone now.

    I am not able to watch the videos on the new format of GameTrailers, why did they mess with it, it worked beautiful for my purpose. Now, I cannot even play the intro, just the spinning wheel. Too bad, I sure loved the workings before they changed it.  I could play back the video, I could do screenshots/stills, etc., now the video is not working after several refreshes.  I don't believe it is fault of Apple at all. I have OX 10.6.8.
