Is Adobe CS3 compatible with Mac OS X v.10.7?

I am thinking of purchasing a DTP program but don't need the $699 CS5 version. So will CS3 work with my Mac, running on OS X v.10.7 (Mountain Lion)?

CS3 software (InDesign and/or any other components of the Creative Suite 3) is no longer available from Adobe or any authorized resellers. If you are attempting to buy a copy of CS3 off of eBay, Craig's List, or other such marketplaces, buyer beware. Much of that stuff is pirated or is not eligible for activation. A buyer should require that the seller guarantee that the serial number is valid and capable of being transfered to and re-registered your name. (For that matter, CS5 isn't still available, either!)
In terms of compatibility with MacOS 10.7, CS3 came out long before MacOS 10.7. Adobe does not officially support this configuration with CS3 and you should expect some incompatibilities.

    CS3 compatible with Mac OS Yosemite?

    Photoshop and Indesign worked directly after the upgrade. I had some trouble getting Illustrator to work:
    I had problems with Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Yosemite. After the upgrade I installed Java for OS X 2014-001, as suggested by others. This seemed to work (sometimes) but when I opened Illustrator for the 2nd time it failed to open. Illustrator opened without crashing, but it did not show any menus, if I opened an .ai file the file did load and show on the screen, but I could not click on the window (unresponsive). Essentially this made Illustrator useless. I tried the following:
    Re-installation
    Install Java for OS X 2014-001
    Cleaning font cache
    Checking permissions
    Installing other versions of Java (both JRE and JDK)
    Nothing seemed to help. Until finally 15 minutes ago I found the solution by accident:
    Open System Preferences > Java
    Wait for the Java Control Panel to load
    Open Adobe Illustrator (while keeping the Java Control Panel window open)
    Hope this will also help others!

  • Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?

    Hello,
    Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?
    Thk

    I just upgraded my OS to Mavericks X, and my previously installed Photoshop CS4 failed to run when I tried to launch it.
    I even downloaded a brand new version from a link here that was in a "Mavericks X" column, giving me SOME confidence that it might just function on the new OS.
    So far, I've been down 3 days since upgrading my OS. I cannot get Photoshop CS4 to run, no matter what I've tried!
    Yes, I've uninstalled the prior version before installing the new one. I entered all of my serial number and registration information, and still NOTHING! Bridge appears to work fine, but Photoshop CS4 is just one big crater right now!
    I'd like to just talk with a human at Adobe on the phone for a few minutes, which should be all that's needed to get it resolved, but they do NOT offer phone support for Photoshop products!!! And, I'm unable to locate how to even become a "Premium Member" (paid) that will allegedly provide phone support!
    HELP!

  • Is Adobe CS3 compatible with windows 7 / 64 bit?

    I need a new pc for working with CS3 - does it work with uptodate technology such as windows 7 / 64 bit?
    What are ideal system requirements for CS3?

    Nobody can tell you if it will actually work on your PC. Officially it's not tested on Win 7 and not compatible and while users have gotten working setups, nobody can give you any guarantees. Even if it installs and all the apps work, certain specific features may not. Ideal setup? Given the previous point, that would be a Win XP computer from 8 years ago... Sorry, but you're asking the impossible. Simply try, employing all the tricks like compatibility modes and so on where appropriate and then come back when you actualyl have problems.

  • Is Adobe CS3 compatible with Mavericks

    I just installed OS X version 10.9.2. Since installation my CS3 InDesign crashes when I attempt to print to my Epson WF 7510. I can print from PDF files. Is CS3 not comparable with Mavericks?

    As far as i know the updater for photoshop cs3 doesn't work anymore anyway to actually download and install the updates, so you probably should just find them
    and download the updates from here:

    The editor will work, pretty much, although you can't easily update the camera raw plug-in. The organizer will not even open.

    I just update my Mac operating system from Snow Leopard to Yosemite and now have to upgrade my Epson Printer WF3540 so that it will be able to scan. Will Adobe be compatible with these softwares?

    Hi spiritentrep,
    What Adobe software are you referring to? Are you using Acrobat? You should have no problems running Acrobat XI on Yosemite, and as along as you have compatible scanner drivers for your Epson, you should be fine there as well.
    Best,

  • Is Photoshop Elements compatible with Mac OS X v10.8?

    Is Photoshop Elements 10 compatible with Mac OS X v10.8? Thinking of purchasing it but in system requirements it only mentions up to
    Mac OS X v10.7.

      No problems have been reported with Mountain Lion but you may wish to download the free trial using the link below and test the software for 30 days. If this is your first purchase you may wish to wait for PSE11 which is usually issued in September.

  • Is Photoshop elements 11 compatible with Mac Mountain lion?

    Is Photoshop elements 11 compatible with Mac Mountain Lion?

    the older version of Photo Shop is no longer supported.
    Don't know which version you mean, but if you mean PSE, then versions 6 and up will work.
    You can't migrate any version of PSE, though, from one disk to another. It must be installed freshly on each machine, since adobe doesn't care about the apple developer guidelines and PSE is not a tidy mac app package--the PSE installer strews stuff all over your hard drive, and you can never move it and get all the necessary bits.
    What I was talking about is if you had a computer with 10.6 or 10.7 and PSE installed on it and then upgraded to mountain lion. In that case it's essential to go into the user library and delete any existing preference files before running it after installing 10.8.
    The instructions to install PSE in mountain lion are to put the disc the drive or to double click the downloaded .dmg file to mount it, and then to run the installer.
