CS4 master suite on retina macbookpro / mountain lion

I have a question to which I haven't been able to find a conclusive answer online or on the forum so maybe by asking a direct question I will get further.
I am currently running CS4 master suite on my imac. This version does everything I need so I have no direct requirement to upgrade to a higher version.
I know will be investing in a macbookpro as a second machine for work on the go.
My question is:
1) Will my CS4 master suite install on a new macbookpro (retina or hi res screen).
2) Will CS4 work on mountain lion or will it not work at all
Is any body in the same situation or has anyone installed cs4 on a new macbookpro?
Thanks for the help

Even those with CS6 are not particularly thrilled with the retina MacBooks from what I've read. Adobe will be updating Photoshop CS6 but they've made no commitment beyond that.
Now would be the best time you'll ever have to upgrade. Beginning 1/1/13 you will be ineligble for upgrade pricing at all.
And...until 8/31 you can move to Creative Cloud for only $29.99/month for the first year. After that it's $49.99.

  • Will CS4 Master Suite work on OSX Mountain Lion

    I want to upsgrade my macbook pro but I am perfectly fine with the older versions of PS & AI and really cant justify the monthly fee for using CC

    Hi Lyngr,
    Minimum system requirement for CS4 for Mac OS is X v10.4.11–10.5.4. However, you can install CS4 on mountain lion.

  • CS4 Master suite; can I install non intel applications on PPC G5?

    Hi, I would like to install the CS4 Master suite on both my Intel G5, but also, if possible, Photoshop and Indesign onto my old PPC G5 too. I know the Master suite is specified as Intel only, but does anyone know if it is still possible to install the UB applications it contains?
    Thanks in advance!

    Andy,
    >To my horror, I read on the box it only works on Intel machines. Would have been helpful if Adobe had made it clear on main page of web site.
    If you spend that kind of money for anything, you simply do your due diligence
    before purchasing. And Adobe
    does have a clear link to system requirements for each app on its pages.
    For the Master Collection, on the main page: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection the link is near the top of the white panel on the right. That link takes you to: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection/systemreqs where the very first bullet-point is "Multicore Intel® processor"
    And the specs do not say, "Also runs on PowerPC G5 computers" because some of the included apps don't. The minimum system requirements to run
    all included apps includes the multicore Intel Mac.

  • USB-3 card reader that is compatible with MacBook Pro (Retina) and Mountain Lion

    Can anybody recommend a USB-3 based CompactFlash memory card reader that works with the MacBook Pro (Retina) and Mountain Lion (or, at least, Lion)?
    Thanks in advance...

    Thanks for your reply, Clinton. But I already have two readers that are USB-2 compatible. Now I need the one like I described above. I am using only the fastest CF cards available.
    I have read some user reports (on Amazon) on two readers relevant to my needs - SanDisk and Lexar - but I'm still not sure whether they are fully compatible with the Retina MacBook and Mountain Lion. As a matter of fact, I doubt it...

  • Macbook Retina with Mountain Lion issues after waking from sleep.

    Macbook Retina with Mountain Lion has the spinning beach ball of death after waking from sleep a few times. Anyone else seeing this?  A fresh boot is very quick, but waking from sleep lags at times.  Then after a few times the spinning beachball of death appears and nothing is responsive making me reboot the machine.

    I've been suffering from this too, and am currently trying this:
    http://www.ewal.net/2012/09/09/slow-wake-for-macbook-pro-retina/
    Seems to be tied to this 'Power Nap' feature.  I tuned it for 12 hours instead of 24.

  • Unable to uninstall CS4 Master Suite

    I began having problems exporting from Premiere Pro, Media Encoder, and Encore,  After receiving a number of error messages I attempted to reload CS4 Master Suite.  The system would not allow me to reinstall CS4 Master Suite so I attempted to uninstall the suite.  I received messages telling me that they were unable to uninstall each of the programs howver, now I cannot access any of the CS4 Master Suite programs on my computer - they will not open.  I cannot uninstall CS4 Master Suite, I cannot install CS4 Master Suite, and I cannot use any programs in CS4 Master Suite.

    I did - seems to have removed the CS4 - but I still cannot reinstall the program?

  • After installing CS4 Master Suite on new Windows 7 X64 laptop, Premier Pro new projects window will not accept input.

    I'm migrating my CS4 Master Suite to a new computer.  The new system is a Dell M3800 running Windows 7 x64.  Install goes fine except for a failure on Flash install.  Once install is complete Premier Pro won't accept any input on the New Projects window.  You can click on the file name field and change it but that's about it.  No buttons will function.  If you change the name and leave the field you can not change it again.  No further input is accepted and the actual change you made isn't applied.  You can exit out of the window with the X.  You can also go to an existing project no problem.  All other applications seem to be working fine.
    Tried uninstall and cleanup and reinstall.  Problem does not change.  Made sure anti-virus and firewall were disabled before install.  No other applications are running during install.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Tech Comm and CS4 Master Suites

    Has anyone else tried to install the Technical Communications suite on top of the CS4 Master suite? We tried it here in our training facilities but could not have both installed at the same time. During the install we kept running into shared assets errors when we installed the TC suite over the Master suite. The only solution was to uninstall the Master suite then install the TC suite but then the same errors popped up when we tried to install the Master suite. So is there a way to have the best of both worlds?

    Call technical support. Installation issues for current versions is free.

  • Will Master Collection CS4 run on OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion? [was: cs compatibility]

    I am buying a new Mac and because of this I wonder, having the CS 4 Master Collection, if it's compatible with Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion.. or will there be any problem of any kind with the software?
    If so, how can it be helped, the easiest way? I mean.. I don't really want to upgrade.

    Mac OSX 10.8.x isn’t a tested OS for CS4.
    Please refer for the system requirement for Master Collection CS4:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/release-note/readme-cs4-master-collection.html#main_Min_S ys_Req
    So, you can install and run the Master Collection CS4 on Mac OSX 10.8.x but we are not sure for any unexpeted problem.
    Howvere, we can assist the customer to the point where it’s determined that an issue only occurs under the new OS, but not under the tested Win OSes per the CS4 system requirements.

  • MB Pro Retina with Mountain Lion can't wake up.

    After I installed Mountain Lion, now my NEW MacBook PRo Retina gives me a hard time to wake up after it goes to sleep. Right now I know it has a solid battery charge, went to get some coffee, it fell asleep and anything I do doesn't wake it up. I press the power button, slide my finger over the pad, close and open the lid again. This is not the first time, yesterday had a solid 15 min, doing things to wake it up but today seems it really went to hypersleep. I was in love with my new laptop with Lion, now this upgrade has taken the joy from me.

    Ok I think I found the issue. After reading a post on a blog reporting that there was an issue with the bluetooth trying to wake up the computer and people recommending to turn it off, I just tried as i left my office where i have my keyboard and magicpad working thru wireless. Before closing my latop, i went ahead and turn off bluetooth. I got home, open my latop and this time, no problem, it turned on like a charm as it used to. So it is a mountain lion issue as i didn't experience this before. This is obviously a short tems solution while waiting on Apple to realease a fix for it.

  • Audio USB crackles on MBP with Retina and Mountain Lion

    I have a USB device connected to my MacBook Pro with Retina Display and the audio crackles no matter what I play.  I hardly have any processing working and there are no other USB devices.  I think that this was working under Lion but I think this is a problem under Mountain Lion.  Anyone else have this problem?  I am trying to determine whether the problem is in the MBP or the OS...  Thanks :-)

    Could be it needs to be connected to both USB port by using a Y USB cable to supply enough power to it. And it won't show up unless there is a CD or DVD disc in it.
