CS4 not working on Snow Leopard

I have a macbook pro and i've had it for about almost two years now, got it mid 2009.  I also got the adobe creative suite cs4 with it, and since then it's worked a dream. I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, but before I did I was advised to ring Adobe and ask them if CS4 is compadible, I did and they basically just said yes it is.... no it isn't. I get the srangest issues with cs4 every now and again, mostly functions, common ones like falttern image, new layer, even quiting the program are greyed out on the menu and unusuable. The only way I can close the program off is to switch off my laptop at the button, there is no option to force quit. And I just had a crash before when working on some PDFs got this report:

and I really can't afford to upgrade to CS5 and didn't expect to so soon, would have thought considering the price I originally paid for CS4 that I would get alot more milage out of it. Also does anyone else here think this Adobe website is a pain to naviage through.... I still can't find any support numbers for australia

The stand alone program doesn't work on mac thats why I run it through photoshop and I was thinking of VueScan as an option, but I use to run Photoshop all the time in rosetta on OS X and it never crashed, but now I'm also getting crashes with dreamweaver. $40 for Vuescan is probably more worthwhile than $40 for technical support here which they're just gonna tell me what I all ready know or tell me to update to CS5 which now i'm gonna wait until Lion comes out incase it's gonna have problems on that.
Cause as long as you're sure that's the only problem? I never had all these problems with photoshop, any version before until I installed Snow Leopard. I reset the program back to it's factory settings and it's fixed the greyed out menu problems... for now.

  • CS4 not working with snow leopard

    Has anyone had any issues with CS4 Extended after upgrading to SnowLeopard?
    After upgrading to Snow Leopard osx10.6.8, my CS4 will not open. It crashes about 30 sec after i try to open it. I have tried restarting, but with no luck.
    Does anyone have any advice for what i can try to do to get CS4 back up and running?
    thanks!

    Try  this
    1. Quit Photoshop CS4
    2.Go to User/username/Library/Preferences/ Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings and trash the settings folder, the whole folder not just the contents of the folder..
    3. Start Photoshop CS4. Photoshop CS4 a new preferences file.
    Also repair your permissions with the disk utility.
    If that does not work, create a new user account log in to the new user account launch Photoshop CS4.
    If it launches then your user account is corrupt or you havde a conflict you will have to find the conflict can be a file in your preferences folder or a login item or fant cache issue etc.

  • HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install

    HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install
    Reinstalling etc does not work - does anyone else have the same problem or a clue as to how to fix this?

    Keith,
    I got a C6280 and the scanner does not work anymore. I am for 6 days in contact with HP. The last printer driver install form the apple web site does not open the image of HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg because of an invalid checksum. The skipping of the validation gives and error in the install.

  • WxPerl not working in snow leopard

    Hello,
    wxPerl seems to be not working in Snow Leopard.
    The command:
    wxPerl -e "use Wx;"
    Gives:
    Can't find 'boot_Wx' symbol in /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Wx/Wx.bundle
    at -e line 1
    Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.
    Is this a known bug ? Is there a work-around ?
    Regards.

    Thanks!
    I did both of what you suggested (and provided very detailed specifics of the wxPerl broken code) and was told:
    1st Case (Feedback): No response to my feedback
    2nd Case (ADC bug report): No response after obtaining an ADC account and filing a bug report
    Next, I wrote a letter to Apple, addressed to the "Macintosh Software Development Manager," providing details of the wxPerl broken code problem, the "Problem Details and System Configuration" error log from one of the many failures while trying to launch the TivoTool 0.7.0 application, remarked on the length of time that this wxPerl code has been broken (broken in 10.5.x & 10.6.x software releases) and detailing how this is disabling the TivoTool application and any other user that is dependent on wxPerl functioning. I asked that a trouble report be opened, the problem resolved, and the fix be made part of a software update. Additionally, I requested an estimated date for this resolution to be included in a software update.
    I also sent a copy of this letter and enclosures, along with a cover letter, respectively addressed to Mr. Steve Jobs, asking that he provide the proper resources to clear this long time defective code.
    Within a couple of weeks (on March 5, 2010) I received a telephone call from an Apple Executive Contact (named "Nate"), due to the letter addressed to Mr. Jobs. After gathering details on the broken wxPerl code, he promised to contact the software development folks and get back to me with his findings. Within a week of this initial contact, he again telephoned (on March 9, 2010) to say that he had contacted the software development folks, provided the information from my broken wxPerl report, that a trouble ticket was opened on the wxPerl broken code problem, and that the wxPerl broken code problem appeared to be a "low runner," e.g. not many users had reported the wxPerl broken code. Additionally, since the broken code was a "low runner," there was no target date to fix the wxPerl broken functionality.
    He suggested, until the wxPerl broken functionality was resolved, that I might want to keep a 10.4.x System hard drive available, so that when I needed the wxPerl functionality, I could boot my Mac under 10.4.x, perform my wxPerl work (e.g. use TivoTool), and then re-boot again later, under 10.6.x to use the TivoTool obtained files.
    He also suggested that I make sure that the Software Update System Preference be enabled to automatically check for updates ("Scheduled Check" tab). He added that I shouldn't rule out that the wxPerl broken code functionality might one day be resolved through a Software Update.
    I was given a case number, for future reference and to allow me to check the status of my wxPerl broken functionality trouble report.
    As my dad used to say, "That's all she wrote."
    So, because this is a "low runner" (e.g. not many people have noticed and reported the broken wxPerl code), I'd be surprised (but very delighted) to see a wxPerl fix delivered by Apple in the near future. After all, wxPerl has been broken since leaving Mac OS 10.4.x (wxPerl broken in 10.5.x and 10.6.x software releases).
    I last spoke to Nate regarding this issue on Mach 9, 2010.
    I have not included Nate's telephone number out of a courtesy to Nate, as he is not a technical person, only a contact that handles issues which have been escalated to Apple executives.
    The Apple Case Number assigned was: 153683921
    Regards to all involved and all effected.
    Thanks -

  • Are mobile internet USB devices still not working on Snow Leopard?

    Are mobile internet USB devices still not working on Snow Leopard? I actually had to go back to my previous operating system to get this to work. I would however prefer to use Snow Leopard...if Apple & HUAWEI have finally got their act together!

    There appears to be a problem with drivers for USB wireless modems with 10.6. I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard and now can't connect to the internet with my wireless modem. I hope Apple sort this out soon. Or maybe it's Huawei that needs to put a 10.6 driver into its software.

    According to Roaring Apps, there is a version of Protools compatible with Lion.  But you may need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to buy either Lion or ML on MAS.   It looks like you need to get up-to-date with your OS and the apps too.

  • M-Audio MIDISPORT UNO USB Not Working With Snow Leopard

    My Snow Leopard installation worked fine except until I plugged in my MacBook to my Casio Privia with the M=Audio MIDISPORT UNO USB cable to run GarageBand. I'm getting a MIDI error which states it can't work with the latest operating system. It doesn't surprise me though for all the software and hardware driver updates that have to catch up to such a new OSX 10.6. I went to the M-Audio site to download the latest driver, but the drivers only were compatible with OSX10.5.8.
    This is an alert at the site
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Support Coming Soon
    Avid/M-Audio working closely with Apple to offer support for OS X 10.6
    Avid/M-Audio is pleased to hear that Apple has released Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. We’ve been working closely with Apple to bring Snow Leopard support to the M-Audio® product line, as well as the Pro Tools® product line and extended product families. We ask that all existing Mac users please wait to upgrade until we officially announce Snow Leopard support. Stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks.
    This is a bit of a concern, because I need to get GarageBand running again with the MIDI hook ups. Is there a work around anyone knows about to get MIDI working with Snow Leopard.
    Thanks Steve

    I ran into a similar problem. I discovered one thing which may help you out though. It works OK with my Yamaha P200 keyboard but it does not work with my Yamaha NP30 keyboard. I looked at the MIDI stream and the only difference seems to be that the NP30 sends a continuous stream of MIDI clock, whereas the P200 does not. My theory is that this clock stream is somehow confusing the driver. I can't seem to disable the MIDI clock on my NP30 but if your Privia has the ability to disable MIDI clock, then it may be worth a try as it will probably fix the problem until they come out with the proper drivers.

  • Transparent PNG not working in Snow Leopard w Final Cut 3.5&4

    I recently changed from a G5 mac to a Mac Pro. I had FCE HD 3.5 which supposedly is not supported in Snow leopard..although it did work.
    Anyways, when dragging a PNG or PICT image to the base video layer, then dragging a transparent background(white)character image to a layer on top of that...I remember when i was in Macos X Tiger with FCE 3.5, after selecting the top layer and setting composite mode to SCREEN.. it would perfectly make the white background transparent. Awesome..
    Well that hasn't worked since i switched to Snow leoplard. I thought it was a problem because i had FCE 3.5 so i bought FCE 4 yesterday
    So i decided to upgrade and still doesn't work.
    Instead of getting a transparent BG.. the top video layer where i placed the PNG image of a character with a white bg still has the white bg..and the inside of the character is semi transparent..
    not what i want.
    I even tried the new feature in FCE 4 where you go to Modify and Sepect ALPHA white. and that didn't work either.
    What's going on.. ONly specific PNG formats have transparency in FCE???
    By the way I'm exporting PNG out of a 3D program called DAZ Studio 3.That program doesn't have the ability to export as Animation CODEC( like in poser)or any other codec for that matter. it only exports movies as MOV or image series PNG or single PNG images.

    Hi -
    Here is a correctly formated PNG file with transparency.
    You can download it to test in your sequence by Control-Clicking and selecting "Download Linked File As . . ." from the drop down menu [HERE|http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/Test.png]
    You simply need to place it on a video track above any other clip to see if the effect works or not.
    Please post if this graphic works for you.

  • HP LaserJet P1005 not working with Snow Leopard

    Has anyone managed to get this printer to work with Snow Leopard 10.6? I have installed the latest drivers* from the HP website which BTW do not say they support 10.6 , see http://is.gd/2DfcE
    *Not sure exactly what the version number of the drivers is. The website says they are version 1.0.7, but when installed they show version 1.0.6
    I either get nothing coming out of the printer or an error "PrintJobMgr quit unexpectedly - This report will be sent to Apple automatically".

    From this web page:
    Here are some troubleshooting steps you can use if there is an issue:
    Ensure the printer is connected, has power, has ink / toner, paper, and no alerts on its built-in display.
    Network based printers should be on the same subnet; you shouldn't have to worry about this if your printer is on your home network.
    Use Software Update for the latest available updates.
    Delete the affected printer from Printer & Fax System Preferences, then re-add the printer.
    If the issue persists, reset printing system as described below, then re-add the printer.
    If the issue persists, contact the printer vendor and/or visit their website for printer software and support.

  • Address book and ical not working for snow leopard clients

    We have upgraded our server to mountain lion from snow leopard.
    At first glance all appears to have gone well, however, the ical and address book services don't appear to be working for snow leopard clients. These services DO appear to be working for lion clients.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    I am at work right now and don't have access to my Mac. But I need to as if your Dad is on Windows Active Directory network? I also found these directions for Princeton's 2010 Exchange that might help. Did he set up the Address contacts & iCal Calenders were enabled when setting up the account in Mail?

  • BUG: Chord Grid Libraries not working in Snow Leopard 10.6.1

    Hi,
    I have Logic Pro 9 installed both on my Leopard and on my Snow Leopard partitions (both are full installs).
    Chord Grid Libraries (I mean, the default one with more than 4500 chords) doesn't work in Snow Leopard.
    It works as expected in Leopard.
    Already verified the bug with other users over here in Italy
    Message was edited by: Simone Coen
    added BUG to the subject header

    Here I did a workaround:
    If you have a 10.5.8 on a Backup Harddisk , start from it, launch Logic9, export the Chord Grids, start again from 10.6.1 launch Logic and reimport this File

  • Deleting multiple items not working in Snow Leopard

    I can select multiple events from a repeated event, and when I hit Delete to delete them, iCal correctly pops up a message asking if I'd like to delete only these events, or all future events. I hit "only these events" and it only deletes one item. My event is set up to repeat every week on Monday-Friday.

    Finally got my Konica Minolta Magiccolor to work with Snow Leopard 10.6.1. What I had to do was go to the EU site and I found the Magicolor 2430DL driver that was newer than the one I was using in Leopard. The version you need to get is 1.8.1 and set it up as a HP Jetdirect - Socket and use an IP address that is on the same segment as your computer. Leave the queue name blank. Below is the link I used to find the driver. Select Magicolor 2430DL and it will load a lot of pages. The driver and instructions were on section 201 - 250. It was labeled as working with OS X 10.5 .

  • CS4 will not work with Snow Leopard

    Does anyone know what the problem is? I have been reading on other message boards about CS4 programs crashing. I can't even get mine to open. Does anyone know a fix or something that can help?

    Hi, I've got the CS4 Master Collection running at home on a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard.
    Here is my report:
    *Adobe Acrobat Pro* - is working perfectly.
    *Adobe After Effects* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Bridge* - WILL NOT OPEN - Use Bridge CS3 if you have it.
    *Adobe Contribute* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Device Central* - Very buggy. - Use Adobe Device Central CS3 if you have it.
    *Adobe Dreamweaver* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Dynamic Link* - NO MAC SUPPORT.
    *Adobe Encore* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Fireworks* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Flash Professional* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Illustrator* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe InDesign* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe OnLocation* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Photoshop* - is working well; however it also has NO 64-bit support! with no future 64-bit support planned. Sorry.
    *Adobe Premiere Pro* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Soundbooth* - is working quite well with some lags on closing.
    *Adobe Version Cue* - is working well.
    *All Adobe CS3 Application are functioning well.*
    My suggestion is use CS3 until these bugs are fixed in CS4.
    These tests were done on:
    Mac Pro (2008)
    2 x 2.8GHz Intel Xeon Quad-Core Processors.
    6GB 800MHz DDR2 ECC FB-DIMM
    1600MHz FSB
    Data Path: 64-bit
    Address Path: 64-bit
    500GB (Startup Disk)
    1TB (Bay 2)
    512MB GeForce 8800GT
    Hope fully you may find this information useful, but definitely check Adobe for updates ASAP
    Kind regards,

  • Aperture PS CS3/4 Aperture, not working since Snow Leopard install...

    Since installing Snow Leopard today I have been unable to export/edit from Aperture to Photoshop CS3/4 and back again!!!
    I have tried it with both CS3 and CS4 as I have both installed. Aperture corrupts the thumbnail on export to both apps, they then open the file in both versions of PS but when you go to save after editing you get a message saying the file is open and you can't save it!!!
    It seems to me it's an obvious Snow Leopard issue as it worked perfectly before I upgraded but now I am screwed for editing until a fix is sorted, any suggestions???

    I am not having that problem. I can edit with CS4 an image that was previously edited with CS4 and also one that was not previously edited at all.
    Did you upgrade Aperture to 2.1.4 before Snow ?
