Mac Book Pro (late 2007): Photoshop CS4 - Smooth scrolling not supported

Hi, I installed Photoshop CS4 on my macbook pro (late 2007). Unfortunatly the smooth zooming and scrolling feature isn't supported because "this feature only works with images that support Open GL"(error message translated from german).
I searched the web and encountered the issue with the Geforce 8600M GT series that might be corrupted. I contacted my local dealer, he found a problem, the motherboard and graphics card was replaced, but unfortunatly the problem still remains.
I guessed that my macbook pro is simply too old. But a few days later I saw a friend working with the smooth scrolling on his macbook pro from early 2007.
Does anybody have an suggestion to this problem?
The ROM Version of my GeForce 8600M GT is 3175

Hi, coolking. You've posted in a forum devoted to the recent "unibody" MBPs, which have different GPUs from yours. You're more likely to find users who are familiar with your machine and can address your problem if you repost in this forum:

  • My (non Unibody) Mac book pro late 2007/08 does not want to turn on.

    Hello folks.. 
    Last night I was working on my laptop and it started to run hot.. However, today I'm trying to boot up the computer and it will not turn on.  I see the little LED light undereith the bottom part of the laptop light up and I hear something initiating, but it wont turn on.... Also, I did a upgrade to a larger hard drive (750gigs) early this year, it's been working great, but now I have this happening. 
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Jose, try a SMC/PRAM reset. This issue may fall under the failed nvidia 8600M GT graphics card issue which requires a logic board replacement. When did you buy the macbook pro? The nvidia replacement program includes a free repair fofr MBP's purchased 4 years from the purchase date.

  • Installing windows 7 on mac book pro late 2013

    Installing Windows 7 on Mac Book Pro Late 2013
    Background
    Mac Book Pro Late 2013 uses a USB 3.0 hub for the external ports, the keyboard and mouse devices.
    Windows 7 does not have the drivers to support USB 3.0 ports so these must be integrated into the boot.wim and install.win files so that Win7 can be installed and used on a Mac. If these drivers are not integrated when win7 is booted up then the mouse and keyboard will not function.
    Requirements:
    Two USB Flash drives
    Access to a Mac computer
    Bootcamp Assistant application
    Access to a Windows computer with windows 7 installed
    Windows 7 install disk or ISO file
    WinUSB application
    Windows Automated Installation Kit for Windows 7 (WAIK)
    Method
    On a Mac
    First prepare a USB Flash drive by formatting it using disk util app, found in Application Utility folder, to FAT format this will store the Apple drivers that can be downloaded from Apple using BootCamp.
    This will be called USB1
    Using Boot Camp Assistant select 'Download the latest windows support software from Apple'  to get the files from apple for win7 for your particular machine these will be downloaded and copied to the USB Flash drive called USB1.
    On a PC
    Using a PC download a copy of WinUSB from  www.joshcellsoftwares.com this software can create a bootable USB with the win 7 files copied on to it.
    Obtain a copy of Windows 7 either in DVD or ISO format.
    Using WinUSB and the Win7 DVD create a second bootable USB Flash drive. This will be called USB 2.
    About DISM
    DISM is a windows application that allows the editing of windows image files with the extension of WIM.
    If DISM is not installed on the PC it can be downloaded from windows website.
    To test to see if DISM is installed, open up a command prompt. Then type 'dism' without the quotes this will display the help description of DISM. 
    Drivers
    The apple drivers need to be added to the boot.wim file so that mouse and keyboard can function during the setup phase.
    The apple drivers need to be added to the install.wim so that mouse and keyboard can function after the setup phase.
    The video drivers are also added as it appears to cause problems if they are not included.
    Create a directory structure like this:
    c:\appleboot\
    drvrs
    mount
    win7x64install
    win7x64boot
    Create the following files in c:\appleboot\ with the following code:
    adddrivers.cmd
    color 0a
    dism /image:c:\appleboot\mount /add-driver /driver:c:\appleboot\drvrs /recurse
    ================================================================================ ==========
    mountboot.wim.cmd
    color 0a
    dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\appleboot\boot.wim /index:2 /mountdir:c:\appleboot\mount
    ================================================================================ ==========
    mountinstall.wim.cmd
    color 0a
    dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\appleboot\install.wim /index:4 /mountdir:c:\appleboot\mount
    ================================================================================ ==========
    unmountcommitfiles.cmd
    color 0a
    dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:c:\appleboot\mount /commit
    ================================================================================ ==========
    Copy the following files into their respective directories:
    Copy from USB 1 into drvrs the $WinPEDriver$ directory
    Copy from USB 2 \sources\boot.wim to win7x64boot directory, this will store the original file
    Copy from USB 2 \sources\install.wim to win7x64install directory, this will store the original file
    Then copy boot.wim from win7x64boot directory to the c:\appleboot\ directory
    Then copy install.wim from win7x64install directory to the c:\appleboot\ directory
    Once all the copying is completed then run the following cmd files in this order:
    For boot.wim
    mountboot.wim.cmd - this will mount the file for adding of drivers
    adddrivers.cmd - this will add the apple drivers to the mounted boot.wim
    unmountcommitfiles.cmd – this will commit the changes and unmount the boot.wim
    For install.wim
    mountinstall.wim.cmd- this will mount the file for adding of drivers
    adddrivers.cmd - this will add the apple drivers to the mounted install.wim
    unmountcommitfiles.cmd – this will commit the changes and unmount the install.wim
    Copy the files back to USB 2
    Copy the boot.wim and install.wim files from c:\appleboot\ directory  to USB 2 sources directory and overwrite the files.
    BOOTABLE USB
    You will now have a bootable USB Flash Drive that has the additional drivers needed to install Win7 on Mac Book Pro Late 2013.
    Mac Preparation
    On your Mac using Disk Util reduce the size of the partition of Macintosh HD so that there is approx. 80GB free for the use of Win7.
    Add a second partition, label it win7 and format it to FAT. This is so that win 7 setup can identify the correct partition.
    Installing Windows 7
    Insert USB 2 into your Mac and reboot, whilst holding the option key down.
    After reboot there will be three icons displayed one is the Mac operating system, the second is the recovery partition and the third is an orange icon indicating a bootable USB drive.
    Select this and win7 setup application will proceed to boot up with the keyboard and mouse functioning.
    Follow the prompts and when the drive selection appears select the win7 partition and format it to NTFS so that win7 can be installed. When windows setup reboots press and hold down the option key and select the windows partition so that setup can continue to install.
    After completion of installation of win7 insert USB 1 with the additional apple drivers. Goto the bootcamp directory and click on setup.exe file this will install additional drivers needed to use Win7 on a Mac.
    Once completed reboot your Mac and select windows to allow the drivers to update in windows.

    Yes this is correct that the /index:4 refers to the ultimate version of windows in mountinstall.wim.cmd
    dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\appleboot\install.wim /index:4 /mountdir:c:\appleboot\mount
    Users should do what applekryzzle suggested if you have a different version of windows. Thanks for the tip applekryzzle.
    With regards to the Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller drivers they are the ones that are provided by apple via boot camp assistant.
    These appear to work correctly and downloading as per instructions simplifies the procedure.
    For those that are interesred the updated drivers can be found here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22824&ProdId=346 7&lang=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20%20*&DownloadType=Drivers
    I have also seen in other discussions that some users get black screens i believe that it is the lack of video drivers which is included in the download from apple using boot camp assistant.
    I'm certain that this works on Mac Book Pro Late 2013 models and i feel confident that this will work with other models.
    I will appreciate any feedback if this works on other models.

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • 8 gigs in Mac Book Pro late 2008

    I have read that the Mac Book Pro late 2008 can now handle 8 gigs of ram, if you have the latest Boom Rom Version (i have the exat on needed). I currently have 4 gigs. My question is, is this some type of HACK, or is 8 gigs really supported by Apple? Can I buy 8 gigs from the Apple Store and have them put it in?
    I am really not into HACKS, but 8 gigs would be nice.
    THanks
    bob

    +My question is, is this some type of HACK, or is 8 gigs really supported by Apple?+
    It really is supported.
    +Can I buy 8 gigs from the Apple Store and have them put it in?+
    Yes, but you'll be paying about four times the going rate. It's easy to install RAM yourself. Just be careful not to touch the gold contacts, or if you do, clean them with rubbing alcohol. Also take care not to cross-thread the screws that hold the bottom cover on when you put them back in.

  • My computer crashed.  I bought a new Mac Book Air, but my Photoshop CS4 won't download.

    My computer crashed.  I bought a new Mac Book Air, but my Photoshop CS4 won't download.  It keeps wanting a serial number from my last product.  I put it in, but it isn't taken.  I am frustrated and furious!  What can I do?

    Bateman777 I reviewed your account and it appears the full version Photoshop software title you purchased was Photoshop CS3.  As Kglad suggested please make sure to utilize your previous full version serial number.  You can find details on how to locate your registered serial numbers at Find your serial number quickly.

  • Mac book pro (late 2013) has a lag when sculpting and rotating models in Zbrush only when using my Wacom-capture tablet (if I use a mouse or trackpad its fine no lag). Also Premiere Pro CS5, playback is almost like watching footage in slow motion.

      Mac book pro (late 2013) has a lag when sculpting and rotating models in Zbrush, but only when using my Wacom-capture tablet (if I use a mouse or trackpad its fine no lag).
       Also Premiere Pro CS5 playback is almost like watching footage in slow motion, Premiere Pro is installed on the main drive but the footage is on an external drive connected with USB 2.
      I'm wondering if it is just a problem with the Mac USB drivers maybe not supporting USB 2 ? (Because I have also installed Window 7 on this same MacBookPro and tested the same software "Zbrush and Premiere Pro" And they both work perfectly on the Bootcamp Windows 7 install, and so its using the same hardware so it has to be the drivers right ?)
    Any help would be great, Thanks

  • Graphics problem mac book pro late 2011 model

    I have a mac book pro late 2011 model.my screen gets grey after the apple logo pops up and freezes and it becomes extremly hot.as my mac was out of warranty i gave it for repair but it didnt resolve as it was a graphics problem.later on i came to know that a lot of mac book pro late 2011 model users have the same problem.will apple change the logic board for me as its just two years old and i paid around  Rs.120000 for that mac and now i am not able to use it.i saw the logic bard price and its like Rs.45000 which is like too expensive.i dont know what to do? i came across a forum saying apple will replace the logic board for free if its graphics related issues for mac book pro late 2010 model if its within 3 years from the date of purchase. here is the link .
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US
    I am a student and it took much time and money to buy that mac.please let me know if someone can help me replacing the logic board.its just two years old and as new as i bought. pls help

    You're having the problems as discussed in this -> https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4766577?tstart=0 - thread. There is no scheme to replace the logic boards as there was for the 15" mid-2010 model. Depending on where you are and what consumer rights you may have under the laws of your country, Apple will likely want to replace the logic board (at a substantial cost). The best 'fix' for the problem at this time is to have the GPU BGA reballed back onto the logic board.
    Take a look at the thread and see if you've the same problems - it only affects 15" and 17" 2011 models, not the 13" model. If you've the 13" model, you have a different problem.
    Good luck,

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process (PrinterProxy) in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

    Have a great day...

    If you mean restoring OS X, that won't necessarily have any effect on speed.
    Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow your Mac down.

    My mac book pro 2.3ghz intel core i7 will not start up. I get the apple and the circle thing but thats it. Please help!!!

    Give this a try:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
