Can I run Adobe CS, CS3, CS4, and CS5 software on Apple Mac upgrade forom Snow Leopard to Maveric OS X ?

I would like to know if I can run my older Abobe CS, CS3, 4, 5 on an upgrade from Mac OS X Snow Leopard to OS X Mavericks ?

Might work; might not. Legacy apps (CS2, 3, 4) that weren't built to run on modern operating systems may have trouble with Mavericks. I think you'll be OK with CS5, 6 and CC.

Flash cs3, cs4 and cs5 always not responding in windows7

I have installed adobe flash cs3, cs4 and cs5 in windows 7, but it is always not responding when I run them. While they are running normally when running on my WindowsXP. I had to reinstall them several times, the result remains the same. Is there any problem in my windows 7 ? can someone help me? thanx.

Problem is not in your windows 7 OS, since i was working CS4 and now i m working with CS5 in windows 7 only. And i feel more comfort with this new OS. May be you hardware configuration might not be support to new technology like windows 7 and Flash CS5. Beca it is need high hardward configuration

File size comparisons, InDesign CS3, CS4 and CS5?

Hi, all.
It seems there was a trend for several major releases where each time Adobe released a new version of InDesign and InCopy, average file sizes grew by 20% or so from the old release to the new release, at least back in the older CS days. Has this trend continued, such that file sizes in CS4 are substantially larger than file sizes from CS3, and CS5 files are substantially larger than those from CS4?
Adobe, of course, wants to keep writing functionality that will keep the user community coming back to buy in to upgrades. The added functionality sometimes comes at a cost beyond the price tag. If file sizes are larger in a newer version, then page saves over a network or to a database are likely to be slower, and user productivity takes a hit while users are waiting for files to be saved.
Has anyone done any testing to build the "same" page in multiple versions of InDesign to understand what the effect is on the file sizes? I'm specifically interested in the file sizes between InDesign CS3, CS4 and CS5. To be meaningful, the test page would have to be at least moderately complex, with a couple of photos, multiple text elements and so forth. By "same," the page wouldn't take advantage of new functionality in newer versions but would be saved as a native page of the current version, though the file sizes may be bloated by the new functionality like it or not.
If you've done any testing along these lines, I'd like to hear more about it.
Thanks.
Mark

The overall structure of ID's files have been exactly the same for -- as far as I can see back -- CS. No change at all, in there.
There have been significant additions to the 'global' spaces; stuff like InCopy user data, table styles, object styles, and cross references. Each of these add a major chunk of data to each file, whether you use it or not, plus a few bytes per object (again, whether you use them or not -- ID also needs to know where you did not use them, that's why). I think these might be the main source of 'global' file size increase (a single object style in one of my files, for example, eats up a healthy chunk of 11,482 bytes).
For the rest, all new stuff like 'span columns' is a handful of bytes per paragraph style. Tracking changes may very well double the size of text runs -- but 1 character takes up 1 byte of storage (plus perhaps some overhead of indicating its 'tracking' status). Any single measurement unit always uses 8 bytes at least (for example, the left inset for a column span -- even if it's not used, or set to 0pt).
I think we're talking about a couple of K's here (oh -- perhaps a max of a hundred or so), in a file format that has been designed around the concept of "disk pages", each 4K big, meaning that sometimes adding one single character to a text box increases the file size by 4 K.
Your idea of comparing the size of a file created in CS3 against the same saved as CS4 and as CS5 is certainly feasible -- I might try it some time, just to confirm it's purely the extra 'new objects' data that accounts for the size increase and to confirm my guesstimates of the number of Ks involved.

How to make an AIDrawArtAGMPort on Windows with CS3, CS4 and CS5

Hi
I want to use the function DrawArt of AIDrawArtSuite.
To use this function, I must have an AIDrawArtGWorld or an AIDrawArtAGMPort or an AIDrawArtAGMPoirtV6 object.
With CS6 SDK, this suite provides a mean to instantiate an AIAGMPort.
With CS3, CS4 and CS5 this function doesn't exist.
On MacOS X, I can build AIDrawArtGWorld.
On Windows, I don't know how to do it.
On Windows how can I make an AIDrawArtAGMPort object ?

Hello,
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they do still have it:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
And it's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account Apple will send one free.
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.

Greetings: I have just acquired an older mini mac (2006 1.66 ghz core 2 duo) Anyway, it had Tiger 10.4 on it and the Bluetooth worked. I upgraded to Snow Leopard and everything works fine - except Bluetooth. The Bluetooth icon isn't there. Any ideas?

Greetings:
I have just acquired an older mini mac (2006 1.66 ghz core 2 duo) Anyway, it had Tiger 10.4 on it and the Bluetooth worked for the wireless Apple keyboard and mouse. I upgraded to Snow Leopard and everything works fine - everything except Bluetooth.
The Bluetooth icon does not exist in the System Preferenc screen.
I tried to download Bluetooth from Apple site but the message I got told me that I didn't need it.
Under Finder, Utilities, I found Bluetooth File Exchange but the message I got was that I had to connect a Bluetooth device to my computer.
I have to admit that I have no idea what's going on here. I am hoping to avert the need to try another complete re-install of Snow Leopard.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Puzzled is a polite word for it.
Thanks Barry - I found the file and trie to send it to trash. The response: (This item cannot be trashed as it it owned by the system).
After dancing around with PRAM and SMC and turning on while holding the power-cntrl-option-shift and heavens knows what else, I now have the Bluetooth symbol on the top of the menu bar but it is ghoseted and has a squiggly line through it. This, I didn't have before so I read this as some progress. It notes that "Bluetooth is not available">
However, the Bluetooth icon is still missing from the System Preferences window - you know, between "network" and "sharing".
You note that you reckon the issue is not software based and you may be correct. The reason that I wonder about that though, is that before I installed Snow Leopard, the keyboard and mouse both paired with the box under the Tiger 10.4. That leads me to conclude that hardware is functional and that there is some screwy little bit of software that is not cooperating.
If I could delete Bluetooth from the system and re-install a fresh version, that might help. Or, is there a way I can use the Snow Leopard install disc and only load in Bluetooth?
I'm stumped.
Thanks for your time

Titles and Transitions doe not work after upgrading to Snow Leopard

I can not get my Titles or transitions to work in iMovie any more after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
Everything goes to a black screen. I am having problems with final cut express also. Anyone have an idea when there will be a patch to fix this? I would hate to have to down grade.

Holy *&$^, no kidding. I mean this is bad. I can't really do anything on iMovie at all. I really hope there is a simple solution to this, b/c if this really is part of a bad release, Apple will not hear the end of it.

Can't run Adobe Media Encoder CS4

I can't open this application at all. It starts up, and shows the brown screen, but then quits and I get the message "The application Adobe Media Encoder CS4 quit unexpectedly". What can I do to sort this out? I reinstalled all my Adobe stuff a week or so ago after having some problems in InDesign.

You're not providing any system info nor the exact error when it crashes, so this is not going anywhere. That aside you may have better luck simply asking in the AME/ PPRo forums.

CS3, CS4 and CS5 Crash on Click.

Hey, cant find anywhere better to ask this question.
running 2.8gz 4gb ram intel imac on latest snow leopard.
have all 3 trials of indesign cs3.cs4.c5 installed.
however as soon as the splash screen has cleared, we get to the new document screen.
we can pick the document settings then the page appears white as standard.
then you click ANYWHERE within indesign and instant freeze and have to force quit.
all drivers n software are up to date and have cleared the prefrences.
any more ideas guys?
cheers

What I think is interesting here is that despite the goofiness of it all, Owen actually looked at the crash report (even though there wasn't one!) and we got some data out of it. I can't remember the last time I suggested somebody look at the crash report where it actually ended up being useful (mostly, I think, because people don't bother to do it). And I definiely can't remember the last time somebody ran "Sample Process" and got out the data that ended up being useful. For clarity that useful data was:

Now, I'm not really sure what this tells us. I think it's saying if we made it easier for most users to provide this information (better descriptions of how to get it, maybe with some screenshots, etc. And whatever the Windows equivalent is, which is I think Quite Possibly A Lot Tougher), then perhaps we'd make some progress in more of these cases.
Of course, the hard part is what to do. I mean, I didn't know what SING and TIN were, though a minute of of googling made it clear that they were about fonts. But certainly other people did.
Oh yeah, Owen: you should go through the thread and award points to the helpful answers. Those of us with non-stratospheric post counts still occasionally smile at the idea of getting useless points to acknowledge our depth of service to the community. Or something.

Beachballing and "disk0s10: I/O errors" after upgrading to Snow Leopard

Here's my situation: I recently upgraded my iMac (2.93 Ghz Intel Core Duo, 4GB of ram, model id is 9.1) from Leopard to Snow Leopard. I did a basic install (not a clean install), the installation went smoothly, no errors were reported and in less than 40 minutes I was up running Snow Leopard.
But... immediately, on the first launch, after a couple of minutes my Mac started beachballing, leaving it completely unresponsive for like 5 minutes. Afterwards, the spinning pinwheel disappears, my Mac continues running normally, and I don't experience much issues. At first I thought it was a one time thing, probably saving some settings up after the first launch, but... it has been happening every time I start my computer! Every time, it starts up, all my startup programs launch, the desktop icons appear, and then suddenly after a couple of minutes it starts beachballing again.
I now start to suspect there's something wrong. I launch the Console and take a look at the logs. There at the exact same time the beachballing occurs, i find like 3 or 4 subsequent "disk0s10: I/O errors". Now I'm starting to think it's a hard disk issue, so I bring up Disk Utility and check the S.M.A.R.T., it says everything is OK. I verify the disk, and it says everything is OK. Now I don't know what to suspect.
Something tells me it's not the hard disk failing (maybe it's denial), because the problem started happening immediately after installing Snow Leopard. With Leopard I didn't have any problems at all. Also, once the beachballing stops, my computer runs smooth and fast, much faster than with Leopard; and it seems the beachballing and the errors don't happen again until the next restart (though I haven't yet used it for a long period of time since this problem happened like three days ago). Another thing is that I recently transfered like 30GBs worth of files and I didn't receive a single error. Everything seems (as for now) to run perfectly well after the initial beachballing occurs.
So, I'm now facing two options: (1) Make a clean install and see if the problem persists, or (2) Replace the hard disk.
As all of you know, both options are pretty time consuming and annoying, so I really want to troubleshoot everything I can to see if the problem has a simpler solution. What other things can I check? Have any of you had this problem before?
Sorry to make my post so long but I believe the more information you get first hand the better, right? Please, I will really appreciate any advice.

OK. Here's what I found out.
When I boot in Safe Mode the problem does not occur (and I discovered why, I'll explain further along). Also, Disk Utility didn't report any errors in either the "Macintosh HD" volume nor the "WINDOWS" volume.
Looking closer at the console errors I noticed a couple of things. Here are the console errors:
6/19/11 4:03:02 AM    kernel    disk0s1: I/O error.
6/19/11 4:03:02 AM    kernel

First of all, the error is reported on disk0s1. So I ran diskutil list on Terminal to check which drive was this. These are the drives and partitions that were listed:
/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER

   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh HD            605.5 GB   disk0s2
   3:       Microsoft Basic Data WINDOWS                 34.3 GB    disk0s3
As you can see, disk0s1 is the EFI System Partition (ESP) in my Mac. After a little research I found out that this partition is used as a stage for handling firmware updates. I also found out that this partition is not really needed to run Mac OS X. This explains the subsequent appearance of the firmwaresyncd command which, according to the Apple's developer manuals, runs at boot time to synchronize the firmware files from the root filesystem to the EFI System Partition (ESP). Also, it does not run when the system is performing a Safe Boot.
Now this explains why the problem only happens after I boot and never happens again until I reboot. It also explains why it doesn't happen when I run in Safe Mode.
Therefore, the problem I'm experiencing is basically the following:
At boot time the firmwaresyncd command tries to access the EFI partition to synchronize the firmware files from the root filesystem to the EFI System Partition.
It seems that the EFI partition at disk0s1 is either corrupted or inaccesible so the firmwaresyncd command can't access the partition and after a couple of tries throws the input / output error.
Now the next thing I did was to run Single User Mode and run fsck_msdos /dev/disk0s1 to see if I could repair this partition. Unfortunately, I got the following error:
:/ root# fsck_msdos /dev/disk0s1
** /dev/disk0s1

So that's what I've found out for now.
What do you think I should do now? Should I try to erase and re-partition the disk to see if it solves the issue? Could these errors suggest the disk is about to fail?
I could technically keep using the Mac like this since the EFI partition isn't strictly needed to run Mac OS X and this problem only happens once at boot time (and I do keep a Time Machine backup). But should I?
Any thoughts?

Can I run Adobe Acrobat 6 pro and Reader X

I continue to use Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional for its ability to combine documents, and insert and delete pages in PDFs. If I download and install Adobe Reader X, will it overwrite Acrobat 6 Pro, rendering it useless? I realize that 6 Pro if very old, but has all the functionality I need to create pdfs. I am only interested in upgrading the reader portion because I occasionally receive files created in later versions and would like to view them with all their newer functions.
Thanks!

Might work; might not. Legacy apps (CS2, 3, 4) that weren't built to run on modern operating systems may have trouble with Mavericks. I think you'll be OK with CS5, 6 and CC.

Can not access Adobe camera raw in PS CS5. Have a mac OS 10.9

How do i access adobe camera raw for images fro Nikon D 7100.

Since photoshop cs5 can only use up to camera raw 6.7 and the Nikon D7100 requires at least camera raw 7.4, photoshop cs5 won't open those files directly.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
You can though, use the 8.6 DNG Converter to convert the D7100 nefs to dng copies, which then photoshop cs5 should open.

Recently safari has been quit unexpectedly I've upgraded to snow leopard and I have the latest safari software. What can I do about it to rectify the problem?

Recently Safari has been quitting unexpectedly. I've dumped my cache several times and even upgraded to snow leopard.l I have the latest version of Safari 5.0.5. The situation has gotten quite annoying and been going on for about three weeks now. What can I do to fix this short of bringing it to someone?
I restart and it works fine for awhile and then it quits again. I either restart and/or dump the cache AGAIN! This is getting quite tedious. I've even taken the battery out and reinstalled it. Nothing seems to stop the quitting.
