Mac processor required for PSE 8

Simple question for which I haven't found a straight answer:
Will PSE 8 run on a G5 with OSX 10.5.8?

No, sorry. If you look at the system requirements:

the very first one is:
Multi-core Intel® processor
PSE 8 will not run on any PPC machine, which what your G5 has. PSE 6 should be fine, though.

Processor requirements for Safari?

For my first foray into Apple Discussions, I am going to ask what is probably a very stupid question, but here goes...
After updating the software on my OLD iMac at work (to OS 10.4.7, Safari 2.0.4), Safari will not launch. I get one of those "Safari unexpectedly quit-other applications not affected" error msgs every time. The guys from our IT department took a look and told me that this version of Safari will not run on a computer as old as mine. (I have exactly the same stuff on my iBook G4 at home and it works great.) They downloaded Firefox and told me to use that. Is this for real? Does Safari have processor requirements above and beyond the OS? Everything else seems to be working OK. And if it really is true, can I uninstall the new Safari and install an older version?
Thanks!

Hi nildem, & welcome to apple discussions
Safari is bundled with os x 10.4.7, if the computer can handle the os it can handle Safari

Processor Requirement for SBS2008

Hi there!
A customer of mine is trying to install SBS2008 on a DL380e Gen8 server. Was reading thru the hardware requirements from the Technet library and some questions came up.
The hardware requirements would have been written some ways back, most probably referring to processors that were available when the OS came out. So when it says the minimum requirement is for a 2ghz processor, does it specifically mean a single-core
processor? What would be the impact of today's multi-core processors? For example, the DL380e Gen8 had a single E5-2403 quad-core processor running at 1.8ghz - will that still not meet the requirement and we will not be able to install SBS2008
on it?
Thanks for the help!

Thanks, Larry. My customer was having doubts because of the 2Ghz requirement that they saw here - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc527594%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
I was assuring him that he may be looking at outdated requirements, and that the Xeon E5-2403 would be more than sufficient to run SBS2008.
He was even hoping someone from Microsoft will be able to shed light on that.

Processor requirements for PE8

Hi. I ordered a new computer which will be delivered this week. I bought PE8 to use on it so I could burn HD video from a Canon Vixia HFS10 camcorder. I just noticed, though, that it says the system requirements for PE8 include a 3.0 GHz processor. My processor is only a 2.66 GHz. But it is an I7-920 quad core processor with 9 GB of RAM. Anybody know if I am going to have problems burning blu-rays with this? I am going to run Windows 7. Thanks.

The processor speed listed in the minimum requirements is for a single core (Pentium) processor. Your quad core will likely runs several times faster than that and should be more than powerful enough to work with Premiere Elements.
The bigger issue is that you list 6 gigs of RAM, which seems to imply that you'll be using the 64-bit version of Windows 7. There you might run into problems. Premiere Elements is a 32-bit application, and some people are experiencing problems trying to interface with 64-bit drivers for it on Windows 7.

Processor requirements for illustrator windows

i have a dell dimension 2100 w/512ram and an intel celeron processor. i didnt see it on the requirements list. will it work and if not can I upgrade it or replace it.

You did not mention which version of Illustrator you intend to run on your machine, but let's assume it's the latest -- version 13 (CS3).
If so, my advice to you is to buy a new PC.
Assuming you're running Windows XP or Vista, it is possible -- by a slim margin -- that Illustrator 13 will actually install and run on your machine. However, it will be an exercise in frustration.
The Celeron is just a feature-crippled Pentium, so it is, technically, a "compatible" processor. However, based on info I was able to dig up on the 2100, the fastest Pentium you can install is a 1GHz processor -- assuming you could even find a P3 processor.
At 512MB, you're already at your machine's maximum memory capacity, and that's woefully low for this kind of work, and especially for Illustrator.
My guess is that you're also working with a very slow hard drive that's running out of space.
Nope... don't even think about trying to upgrade your 2100. Donate it, whip out your credit card, and get a modern PC.

Elements Mac processor requirements (revised)

Which versions of Elements will run on Macs with Intel Core 2 Duo processors? Requirements thru v 10 only say "multicore processors"; v11 requires 64 bit processors. I assume all versions thru v10 will run on Core 2 Duo processors, but will v11? I assume these processors are only 32 bit, but I am not sure.

The Intel Core 2 Duo processor will work with Photoshop Elements 11. I had it working on a Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 ghz processor successfully. It is the Intel Core Duo processor which is a single core processor.

Processor Requirements for using Photoshop on a laptop

I am buying a laptop. There are inexpensive machines with the Celeron processor or the AMD-V series. These are both single core processors.
A salesman at a computer store, Microcenter, said that Windows 7 is written for dual core processors and if I tried to use a single core processor for applications like Photoshop it would become very slow.
Is he telling the truth? Also, he said that the AMD Ahtlon II processor runs hot. I had this problem years ago with AMD desktop processors. He said that the AMD Turion runs better.
Also, can I go with a standard graphics card, or can I just use what comes with the computer. I purchased a Presario CQ56-115DX but have not taken it out of the box.
The salesman was pushing me to upgrade to an Intel dual core chip.
Thanks

There's an old saying: Good / Fast / Cheap - pick any two.
Modern Windows depends on an unprecedented number of processes running simultaneously. A multi-core processor is a good idea.

Is dot mac now required for iPhoto

hey all,
just asking this because i am unavoidably delayed in renewing my dot mac account. i have a bunch of pictures taken in my sister's beautiful garden over the course of the year to create a DVD for her during the winter months. while my dot mac was active, no problem. but trying to do another bunch today, i got a warning message that my doc mac account was not accessible, and after that even though the menus for iPhoto showed up, the new library did not... in fact, none of my iPhoto libraries will open.

Hello. I read the question and the answer but I'm still confused (not surprising). Every time I try to email from iPhoto it wants to do it through .mac but I don't want to pay a fee for that and every possible password I've tried does not work.
All I want to do is email some pictures without using another paid service. Pls explain how this dunderhead can do this.
If you could email me this at [email protected] I'd appreciate it - Who knows if I can ever find this message board again!!
Thanks so much!

MAC OS download requirements for AAM

What are the MAC OS requirements for downloading the Creative Cloud AAM? I am having trouble finding this info on the website. I have MAC OS X and the app wont open once downloaded and I am wondering if it is an OS issue. Thanks!

It depends on which products you are downloading but the requirements are currently the same as Master Collection CS6 - http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection/tech-specs.html.

OSX required for installation?

I can't find the mac OS requirement for Photoshop CS3. Will Photoshop CS3 install on a mac with 10.3 or do you need to buy 10.4 first??

these are the general requirements for running Leopard:
Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
512MB of memory
DVD drive for installation
9GB of available disk space
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple's .Mac service; fees apply.
I'm running Leopard on my iBook(G4 1.3Ghz) but not CS3. the iBook runs a little slow at times because the iBook is not a powerhouse. Cs and CS2 also work but not all that well. I don't do any production work on the iBook.

Minimum Requirements For FC 5.1 - Laptop iMac

Hi Gang
My friends have an older iMac; Processor 1.9 Ghz Power PC G5 with 1 GB Ram. I'm pretty sure we can replace the two 512's with #2 Sticks of 1GB = 2GB.
They've got about 140 GB's of free space on their system drive and are using Tiger 10.4 - They can upgrade to 10.4.11, that's not the issue. Was wondering if the current video card and remaining HD space would be adequate?
*They will no doubt be using an external drive for scratch.
Thanx for your input
Mike

Requirements for upgrading from LR3 to LR4

The processor requirements for LR4 reads "Multicore Intel processor with 64 bit support." The processor description in the iMac I bought in early 2009 reads "2.8 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo." Will my processor handle LR4?
Thank you
Jim B

As mentioned above the d/load will be the current release whereas the disk version will be 4.0 and need updating.
There are many differences between Lr3 and 4 though including catalogs (Lr3 catalogs will have a copy made and upgraded) and processing (a new process version) which can alter image appearance of existing files. So don't update the process version on existing files before you have experimented - I do it only when reviewing a file if I feel I can work it better with the new version, not updating the whole lot at once!!

You are running an operating system that Audition no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms.

Processor speed for HDV/Blu-ray in PE9

Hello All
First post for me.
I just purchased Premiere Elements 9. I loaded it on my current computer, where it limps along. (2 GHz processor). However, I am in the act of getting a new box.
My question is - I see the following spec for PE9:
2GHz or faster processor with SSE2 support; 3GHz processor required for HDV or Blu‐ray
But when I look at new computers, even many expensive gaming packages do not have as much as 3 GHz. The standard seems to be 2.8 GHz.Would anyone care to comment on this specification? I am new to video processing....maybe I shouldn't worry about HDV (I am mainly interested in making videos for youtube and to burn to DVD).
Thanks much -
Owl Boy

Thanks for the replies....Just what I was looking for.
[FWIW I tried asking the same question in elementsvillage, but am having all kinds of mechanical problems with that forum. This one works fine for me.]
I will leave this thread open the rest of the day in case more opinions surface.
Thanks again.
