Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

Hi Carolyn, thanks for your quick reply. First thing I did before posting my question was to check the system requirements for Creative Suite, both on Apple and Adobe's websites. But I am however confused about the difference between "Multicore Intel processor" vs "Core 2 Duo", and keep hearing stories about CS5 not working properly.

    Hi LMDV,
    Welcome to the community!
    Multicore Intel processor also known as Dual core processor is required to run the CS5 or CS5.5, you have Core 2 Duo which is better then Dual core and sufficient to run the CS5 and CS5.5 apps. You just need to check other system requirements which is mentioned here:

  • Can I purchase Mountain Lion and make a flash drive bootable? I do not want to install it on my Macbook Pro. I have Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro now, and due to my hard drive needing repair I need to boot off of another source, like my flash drive.

    Can I purchase Mountain Lion and make a flash drive bootable? I do not want to install it on my Macbook Pro. I have Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro now, and due to my hard drive needing repair, I need to boot off of another source, like my flash drive. I am in Paris and my Snow Leopard DVD is in Texas.

    Mac OS X has a built-in disk diagnostic and repair program called fsck or file system consistency check. Here’s how to verify and repair your startup disk with fsck.  As soon as you hear the startup tone, press and hold Command-S on the keyboard. Keep holding down those keys until you see a black screen with white lettering. This is called “booting into Single User Mode.”  As the Mac boots in this mode, the screen reports each step of the process. The line should end in root#.  Right after the root# prompt, enter the following: /sbin/fsck -fy
    If repairing the disk in single user mode fails, it means one of two things. Either your hard drive itself is failing (a hardware failure), or the directory damage on your hard drive is beyond the capability of the built-in repair procedures in OS X.

    While the 2011 MBP's that shipped with Lion can be made to run Snow Leopard as long as you have the appropriate installer disk for 10.6.7 or later, yours is a 2012 MBP and most likely can never be made to run Snow Leopard because the necessary hardware support drivers (e.g., USB 3.0 support) simply aren't a part of that OS.

  • I have a macbook pro with a 2.16 GHz Intel core Duo processor. Can I install the iOS 5 software

    I have a macbook pro with a 2.16 Ghz Intel core Duo processor. Can I install the iOS 5 software?

    iOS 5 is for iDevices, not OS X. Your iDevice would only require 10.5.8 or later. If you have a Mac with a Core Duo processor then you cannot install Lion but you can install Snow Leopard provided you have at least 1 GB of RAM installed.

  • Is installation on 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo (MacBook Pro)really not possible and why?

    I would like to buy OS X Lion and install it on my MacBook Pro with 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo, but this processor is not in the list of the specifications (Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 or Xeon processor).
    Is it really true that I can't install Lion on my Mac? If so, what is the reason?

    It has to be a Core 2 Duo. Those are the requirements for Lion.
    Requires a newer Mac.
    Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM.

  • My MacBook Pro, 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo gives me an error message during Lion install. My Intel Duo Core is not an Intel Duo Core and cannot install Lion.  I already have Snow Leopard what is the problem with Lion?

    My MacBook Pro, 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo gives me an error message during Lion install. My Intel Duo Core is not an Intel Duo Core and cannot install Lion.  I already have Snow Leopard what is the problem with Lion?

    You need a "Core 2 Duo" for lion, and I'm guessing you only have a "Core Duo"  My wife's macbook is also a "Core Duo" and has Snow Leapord, but cannot install Lion.....

  • Looking to upgrade 2 GHz Intel Core Duo system if possible

  • How do I reinstall my operating system after hard drive upgrade on MacBook pro?  I have Snow Leopard install disc

    How do I reinstall my operating system (Snow Leopard) after a hard drive upgrade. I did a Time Machine backup before the new hard drive was installed. I put in the Snow Leopard install disc and don't get the icon I'm supposed to double click to install Snow Leopard and then the backup.
    HELP PLEASE!!

    Is the new HHD in the MBP?
    Is the new HDD formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)?
    Where is the old HDD? In an enclosure?  What is on the old HDD, your user data?  Is the Snow Leopard System on it?
    Do you have a separate Time Machine Disk with your user data?
    Answers to these questions should give an exact status of your situation so that one can proceed in the right direction.
    Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro will not read Snow Leopard install disc.

    Trying to install Snow Leopard on daughter's MacBook Pro, which is still on 10.5.8 so that she can install Lion. Her computer refuses to read the Snow Leopard install disc and keeps kicking out the disc.

    Are you using a retail 10.6 disk that looks like this?
    and not the gray install disks that look like this? The Gray Disks are machine specific and only have the drivers for the Mac that they shipped with.

  • Is there any way to install Mountain lion on my 3 1/2 year oldMacbook Pro which is running OS 10.5.8 with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM?

    When I went to the Apple Store I got a reply that I needed a more advanced OS, I believe it wanted OS 6.6.  I had tried to upgrade my OS in the past and was told the machine cannot handle it...
    Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.
    I have been planning to buy a new Desktop with a 27 inch screen and an iPhone 5 when available.  It is beginning to seem that this is the time for the new computer.  I will use my iPad 2 as my travelling device.  I basically use the computers for email and some writing, nothing fancy.

  • Macbook Pro with 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo Windows install advice

    I find myself after 20 years using mac's needing to run a windows program. I have Macbook pro 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo and was wondering if anyone can tell me if parallels or fusion works better on this machiene. Also i see some folks here feel Windows 7 is  the way to go. Any advice would be appreciated.
    tks  in advance for any advice
    -R-

    A lot of the answer really depends upon you and your usage.
    VMWare Fusion, and Parallels Desktop both work well, nad each ahs its strengths and weaknesses.  I have used Fusion v3, 4, & 5, as well as Parlallels v 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, & 8.  I got my first copy of Parallels when I got my first MacBook Pro as a bundle deal along with a Windows XP Pro license.  For my usage, I find that Parallels seems to be more "efficient" (it runs a little faster) but Fusion seems to be a bit more stable, and supports a slightly broader collection of hardware peripherals.  Luckily for you, both packages offer a free trial before you buy the software, so you can test them both to see which works best for you.  You could also consider using VirtualBox (a free tool much like Fusion or Parallels), or even Boot Camp if you need the "raw power" of running the system in native mode with no emulation overhead.
    As for What version of Windows you run, it would really depend upon what licenses you have, and what your Windows software requires.  some Windows software still requires Windows XP, some requires Windows 7 or later.  Since you didn't mention your Windows app, I can't say for it.
    In the end, it depends upon you, what you want, what you need, and what you are willing to pay for. 

  • Is it possible for me to upgrade from an intel core duo processor to an intel i5 core processor?, Is it possible for me to upgrade from an intel core duo processor to an intel i5 core processor?

    Hey guys, please help me out. I am an owner of a MacBook Pro with software 10.6.8 and I have a 2 GHz intel core duo processor, and I was wondering, if it is possible for me to upgrade to an i5 intel core processor, so I can install mavericks to my MacBook Pro.

    There is no way to plug in a different processor on your older MacBook. Processors have been soldered in for quite a long time.
    The only known method is to convert your MacBook to Cash (by selling it) and use the cash to buy a MacBook that better meets your needs.
