How to install Photoshop CS3 disc on a Retina MacBook Pro?
Just bought a new Retina Macbook pro and trying to install CS3... the program from my old Macbook would not work when moved to the new one. I have the original disc but this will not work on new Macbooks without a drive.
Anyone any ideas?
Feel free to contact support, but they'll only give you the finger, metaphorically. There is no support for old versions beyond sorting out your activation. And you get what was to be expected. All Adobe apps must be properly installed. Copying the installer files to a USB stick will work just fine. If for soem reason that's not possible, download using this method:
Direct Download Links for Adobe Software
You'll still run into trouble, though. CS3 was never tested on contemporary versions of OSX nor will it deal properly with Retina displays. As a minor, you will have to enable the half-res option in your display prefs during install and possibly usage of the program...

I have downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 11 on my new Macbook Pro. Why can't I see my scanner (Epson Perfection 3200 Photo) from the File>Import menu?
There was no driver update available (it said my driver was up to date), so I just deleted the scanner and restarted the computer. when it came up, the scanner had already been added again. With great anticipation I tried to import from Photoshop...but no luck (scanner was not visible). I finally ended up calling Epson (had great difficulty in locating a number for support) and they finally told me there is no driver update for OS X 10.10 and I should as a work around use "Image Capture" application. I tried it, and it works quite well.

So, I'm trying to do a direct install of Windows 8 on my old Macbook Pro, but my machine isn't officially supported for Windows 8; I get an error message every time I try to use boot camp. I previously had Windows 8 running, but that was because I had upgraded it from Windows 7. Later on I ran into problems because I couldn't update to Windows 8.1 so I ended up deciding to just erase the partition and start over. Since then, unfortunately, I've lost the Windows 7 install disc I used and now it turns out Boot Camp won't help me do the install. Is there a way of manually installing Windows 8? Without the help of Boot Camp? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro with retina display that does not have a CD drive. I own the Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 & Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended in CD form.

How to install Google's chrome browser safely on MacBook Pro-retina?
Hello, I've arrived to a crossway which I need (don't want to) install Google's chrome browser or Firefox on my MacBook Pro.
Yes, I don't want to, I hate it running on a Mac.
I know it's the best browsing experience in a 'Chromebook', but in "Rome be a roman",
After using this amount of money to buy the finest MacBook Pro out there, from some reasons,
I don't want to install it. I want Safari to be able to run every site, even the main site of my university.
That's what I expect from Apple.inc. that everything will work!
I mean, how Chrome and Firefox and even Microsoft's IE, supporting and running those uni. sites, and Safari - DOES NOT ?
(In case that you want to know about which sites I'm brabbling about,
here is one for example: http://new.huji.ac.il/en there are section that just don't work via safari.)
In addition,
I'd like to know, since I didn't find a good solution, what are the right ways to install Chrome on a MacBook Pro-R,
and to control all the files (EVERYTHING) that are related to it, so I'd know where to find them after I use it. (additional same information for using firefox the same way will be more than welcome).
Thank you,
Jacob.Chrome Support

How well does Photoshop Cs6 run on the 15" Macbook Pro with 2.6gHz?
I'm currently 'in the market' for a new computer. My desktop is fine, but no longer can handle all the tasks I can toss at it for work (i.e. graphic design). I have been carefully biding my time, getting as much use out of it and my essentially crummy Paint Shop Photo x2, and I believe now for it to be the time to invest in a Mac and the newest edition of Photoshop (CS6). My question is this: Which one of the two Macbook Pro 15" will work best with it, and yet still survive through the next few series of upgrades? My boyfriend says the higher one, the 2.6gHz guy, will do just fine for what I need, I'm just chewing my nails off at the price. And no, I'm not interested in the retina display model. Suggesting it is just pointless.
Basically, I'd like to know which Macbook Pro 15", the one with 2.3gHz or 2.6gHz, will suffice for the jobs I need to do, which include all areas of graphic design and artwork (hence Photoshop), along with heavy internet usage (7-9+ tabs open at any time), Word documents or the equivalent (Pages) and any extras (iTunes, Spotify). Bonus if it can gently tolerate things such as the Sims 3 and all its expansion packs.The nice thing about the 2.6GHz model is that it comes with a NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory. The 2.3GHz model only has the NVIDEO GeForuce GT 650M with 512MB of GDDR5 memory. And Photoshop will take advantage of that extra video RAM.
That said, I have an older (late 2011) 15" MBP with a 512MB video card and Photoshop CS6 (and the entire Adobe Design & Web Premium suite) works just fine. If I were you, I would buy the base 2.3GHz model with 4GB of RAM and upgrade the RAM, and possible the hard drive with a SSD, as you need it. You can upgrade your RAM yourself to 16GB and you will notice an appreciable difference in Photoshop speed. And I would recommend the RAM upgrade straightaway. You can then look at putting in a 512GB SSD for around $400 and you'll have one of the fastest machines around.
So go with the 2.3GHz and upgrade the RAM immediately. Good sources for RAM are Crucial, Corsair, etc. You'll get far more out of a RAM upgrade than you will the processor upgrade.
