Contribute 6.5 optimized for Retina Macbook?

Is Contribute 6.5 optimized for a retina Macbook screen? I don't want to get a new Macbook retina and then see a pixelated screen - I only use Contribute from Adobe. So my concern is only this software, nothing else. Thanks!!!

No it's not... and it looks awful. Adobe Contribute is one of the most used programs on my computer. When my other laptop  died recently, I had to buy a new MacBook. So I was pretty surprised when the graphic display was highly pixelated.
Nothing like progress taking you back ten years.

  • Lack of DIY hardware upgrades for retina MacBook Pro

    Can any hard-core Apple Fanboys testify that somehow built in ram on new retina MacBook Pro's is more stable than replaceable RAM modules which have come with previous models? I understand Apple's decision to move to built-in ram to make the overall computer smaller but it worries me a little not being able to replace or upgrade the RAM whenever I want to or whenever I need to. So I'm wondering if anybody can testify that built-in ram is better.

    I would love it if they didn't phase it out. I just think its common sense. No one hear can say they understand apple more than the next forum member. I simply was asking if anyone here had any better technical knowledge than myself and knew for a fact that built in ram was or was not any better than sodimm. Ram
    Is one of those things that us techs troubleshoot and replace often and it's a no brained that those with retina MacBooks will have to have their entire motherboard replaced if the Ram goes bad, unless apple put the ram on a separate replaceable board.

  • Will InDesign/Illustrator be updated for Retina Macbook Pro Display?

    Will the Adobe Creative Suite programs be updated for the MacBook Pro Retina Displays? If so, when?
    I viewed text in InDesign 5.5 and Illustrator on Macbook Pro with Retina at an Apple store (with Display Performance set on High Resolution Display in InDesign) - the type looks all pixelated at edges. Much smoother on Antiglare display. I and deciding between purchase of a Macbook Pro 15-inch Hi-Res Antiglare screen and the Retina display screen. It would help in my decision if Adobe would give some indication, if or when there may be updates in Illustrator and InDesign for better type on the Retina display.

    The only program we’ve heard about is Photoshop and that’s CS6.
    The chances of older versions being updated are pretty much zero.

  • Selling powerful iMac for Retina MacBook

    Dear friends and fellow Apple enthusiasts,
    I am considering the possibility of selling my iMac to fund a retina MacBook. The screen really won me over when playing with it in an Apple Store.
    My iMac specs are as follows:
    27-INCH, Mid 2010
    Processor  3.6 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB
    256 GB SSD + 1TB HDD
    It is in flawless and mint condition. I am hoping to get enough to fund the Retina MacBook (around £1500), as I get HE discount.
    I have a 24" Apple Cinema display I can connect the Retina MacBook to. I will use it only as my home workstation, as I already own a 13" MacBook air.
    So my Question(s) are as follows:
    1) Will the MacBook match the power of my current iMac (I like to edit photos, play some music, play WoW)
    2) Is this move worth it, or silly?
    3) How will the 24" display look when connected to the retina? Can I use this external display as an "extension"?
    4) Can my Imac get my asking price? (I spent £2300 on it, and it still has warranty for another 13 months)
    Thanks guys.

    Hi,
    I will answer your questions in order.
    1. The new Retina MBP should match your iMac's performance or even better according to GeekBench.
    2. Choosing the Retina is totally up to you. Do you think it will benefit you? You won't go wrong either way.
    3. The 24" display will look normal. You can use it as an extension.
    4. You should get your asking price.
    What model Retina MBP are you looking to get and how are you gonna store all your stuff?
    Hope this helps.

  • Long boot time for Retina Macbook Pro 11,3 running 10.9

    I have a brand new Retina Macbook Pro that used to have lightening fast startup times (~15 seconds). About a week ago, it started taking a LOOOONG time to boot up (about 3 minutes). It hangs on the apple logo with the spinning grey circle. This is after exiting out of all applications, going to system preferences and slelecting my startup disk as Macintosh HD. I have four login items (DropBox, xType, Alfred, and Clipboard History).

    UPDATE:
    I removed all of the login items from System Preferences -> Users and Groups -> Login Items (not just unchecked them). I should have removed them one by one and restarted the computer each time to see which was the culprit. I added them one by one, and restarted every time. So far so good. I'll update if I see a lag again.

  • Are all webpages optimized for Retina Display?

    I've noticed on my iPhone 4 that text on every webpage I've been to looks crisp and clear but everything but text like pictures and images still look very pixellated and blurry. Is this how everyones iPhone 4 is?

    Web graphics tend to be very low res...somewhere between 72 and 86 dpi...for quick loading.. a higher res screen does not upsample the graphics.... I doubt we'll ever see web graphjics optimized for hi res displays... the files would be huge and take forever to load..

  • Optimized for Retina Display settings?

    Are their settings to optimize a book for the new iPad retina display? At this moment, the updated applications still functions as if the resolution is 1024x768. Perhaps I a missing some new option somewhere?

    I'm going to throw my 2 cents in : )
    and yes, with out the device we well not know for sure.
    images that are 1024 x 768 will effectively be doubled in resolution to 2048 x 1536 to fill the new ipad screen.
    Normally this would give you a blurry image.
    But the key is that the new ipad is also reducing it 50% (Because the screen size is the same in inches)
    so it is not like doubling the pixel resolution on your image and then looking at it on the same monitor (which would be blurry)
    so the bottom line (in my opinion) a 1024 x768 image will look the same on a ipad 2 and a new ipad.
    a 2048 x 1536 image will look a little better on a new ipad, (maybe a lot better if you have good eyes)

  • External monitor for Retina Macbook Pro

    Hello,i want to buy an external monitor for my late 2013 rMBP.I tried two models (Dell U2414H and LG 23MPQ65-P),none of them worked perfectly.On both monitors colors were washed, without contrast, the font was blurry.So i decided to return the monitors and also I sent the laptop in service for several diagnoses to see if there's something wrong with my Macbook.
    I see that there are many models of external monitors  that do not work correctly with rMBP.
    I want an 23-27", FullHD, IPS monitor that would cost around 400$.
    Can you tell me some suggestions?
    Thanks.

    So which input ports are best to use? I know there's ones like HDMI and DVI, so which is better to use?
    Modern monitors will likely have HDMI, DVI, and/or Display Port inputs. If you use HDMI then you will not need an adapter since your computer will have a HDMI port out. You will just need a HDMI cable. If you use DVI you will need a mini display port to DVI adapter and a DVI cable. Dual Link DVI is best but you will need a mini display port to Dual Link DVI adapter and a Dual Link DVI cable. If your monitor has a Display Port input you could use that.  vga will produce bad results compared to all the digital ports.
    Your selection depends on the monitor you get. To get the best display resolution use what provides the monitor with video at the monitor's native resolution.
    Use Google to compare the specifications of the different ports https://www.google.com/search?q=display+port+comparison+dvi+hdmi+dual+link

  • IWork '09 not ready for Retina Macbook Pro?

    Just bought a 2012 Retina Display Macbook Pro... I also downloaded iWork '09... The entire suite isn't retina compatable... anyone else noticing this?
    Apple, when are you going to fix this?

    Go to the Pages app through finder and right click and go to "get info" (or hit command + i when the app is highlighted). Uncheck "Open in low resolution."

  • External Hard Drives for retina Macbook Pro - Thunderbolt vs. USB 3.0

    I already bought a G-Tech FireWire800/USB 3.0 external hard drive and just bought a second one.
    And I just found out that USB 3.0 does not daisy chain (and the G-Tech drives only have one port each), and I also read that USB 3.0 hubs are not working well on the Mac.
    I think of selling the drives again (at a loss, of course) and buying a Thunderbolt drive:
    Here are the two options:
    1. Western Digital:
    http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/890519-REG/Western_Digital_wdbusk0080jsl_n esn_8TB_My_Book_Thunderbolt.html
    This drive seems to have two external hard drives. Would it be possible to use one of them as the main external hard drive, and the second one as the back-up hard drive?
    2. G-Tech
    G-Tech also sells Thunderbolt hard drives like this one here - but it's a RAID 0 drive - can I also use both discs separately as main drive and backup drive without using RAID 0? I just trust G-Tech more than Western Digital:
    http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/858463-REG/G_Technology_0G02272_8TB_G_RAID _External_Hard.html
    What's your take on it?
    Thanks!

    The NEXT THING which is upcoming now that SSD prices are dropping is Firewire to SSD, or Thunderbolt to SSD.
    Now THAT will be a "did you see that?" improvement.  A few home brew folks are already making their own.
    run the two discs separately as one disc for storage? Yes, I however I have never had the desire or need to setup such a daisy chain. Autonomous data storage for safety is a rule I live by.
    Backup VS. storage, is really a distinction without a difference.
    My main PDF collection is 14 Terabytes, so...............  Yes, it depends on what you need, just remember the religion of storage, 2 copies is 1, and one is NONE.
    Never consider any computer a data storage device, rather a data creation ,sending, and manipulation device. Any who thinks any data is safe on any computer, even copied upon multiple partitions is making a mistake
    Never backup your data exclusively upon magnetic hard drives or flash storage, nor consider same since magnetic storage degrades over time even under ideal conditions
    burn important data onto multiple copies of archival DVDs and store same in cool dark fireproof safes, hidden places, secret places, multiple places
    always consider and expect thy computer’s hard drive to completely crash anytime, at all times, and keep a cloned and updated hard drive handy at all times to return to immediate productivity and avoid program and parameter reinstallation and tweaking

  • Safari 6.0 bottom corners have not optimized for retina display!

    For those who have an rMBP, if you look closely at the two bottom corners of the window of Safari 6.0, they are not smooth.
    It's no big deal, but I hope Apple could fix this soon.

  • HT1338 thunderbolt to gigabit update for retina macbook pro

    Still only getting 100mbs through tis connector. Any updates yet?

    The only Thunderbolt display I'm aware of is Apple's.  However, the Thunderbolt port on your MBP is also a mini-displayport and that is the normal way of connecting an external display to your MBP.  You therefore need a mini-displayport to whatever you need on the TV end, e.g. HDMI.  Apple have a good selection of cables on their online store.

  • I installed CS6 on my new retina MacBook pro laptops. InDesign and Acrobat display document pixilated. I ran the updates and it fixed Illustrator and Photosho, but not InDesign and Acrobat. What can I do to make them display in high resolution? HELP!

    InDesign CS6 is not optimized for retina displays. You’ll need to move to Creative Cloud for retina compatibility.

  • Single folio optimized for ipad 1/2 and 3

    Is it possible to publish a single app, produced with adobe dps, that is optimized for retina display as well as for the older ipads?
    so that a customer could buy the app at itunes, and depending on his device, he gets the ipad1/2-version or the retina-version of the single magazine.

    Bob L.,
    Actually, the print parallel is exactly the way I'm approaching DPS. If I'm printing 150 line screen and an image is 150dpi (or anything less than 300dpi), that's an issue that needs to be fixed. I'm not going to just run it and hope the client doesn't notice. The image is either the correct resolution, or below the correct resolution.
    In the case of DPS, I am unable to use the correct resolution for both iPad 1/2 and iPad 3 if I want to distribute a single-edition app. What I want is to be able to target devices and ensure the correct resolution folio is rendered on each device. Renditions is exactly the right feature to accomplish this, but it being limited to multi-issue apps is what's tripping me up. I understand the way the feature is implemented now will not allow for it to exist in single-issue apps. My hope is Adobe changes the way it works and considers renditions an essential feature, regardless of the type of app. In other words, renditions as it is now feels like leveraging Adobe's already-existing services to accomplish a great feature, but perhaps a fresh look at the feature is what's needed to move it beyond its current limitations.
    As for file size, I did not say I'm not concerned about it. Rather, I said I'm less concerned about it than quality. For our business, quality is top priority. Our clients and customers have a discerning eye. The image comparison I posted above should illustrate the vast quality difference and the folly in assuming 1024 folios look "nearly identical" or "good enough" on the new iPad.
    And yes, I realize we can do "the whole thing" with HTML. We create our own webapps, do all of our own hosting and have staff that develops in Rails, Javascript, HTML, etc. Our production staff, however, knows nothing but InDesign. My hope with DPS was to ensure our production staff could create publications for print and use DPS for tablet publishing. But, the more I learn about DPS, the more attractive building our own apps leveraging HTML sounds.
    I'm posting my feedback here thinking Adobe might like to know that a small publishing company like ours is evaluating DPS and coming to the conclusion we may be better off moving away from Adobe's tools altogether, including InDesign, and working in HTML.
    Thanks,
    Chris
