Mac Snow Leopard install issues w/ CS?

I'm upgrading my Mac OS to Snow Leopard (10.6.3), and prior to doing so, I decided to go online and search to see if there were any issues or recos I could fine re: the upgrade. I'm glad I did. I seems there are a few problems with Adobe CS softwares – saving files and software crashes with Snow L.
I am running all CS4 versions, with the exception of InDesign (CS6). Did Mac/Adobe resolve the issues with the 10.6.3 version?

CS4 should work fine without any issue on Snow Leopard , there could be problem that could be system or application specific which we can try and help you with.

  • Snow Leopard Install Issue - HELP

    Hope someone can help ..... I just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 from a brand new install disk.
    Everything went fine UNTIL I did Apple Software Updates.
    Once those were complete, I get this screen at Startup.
    If I power off and back on the same screen comes back.
    I thought about trying to reinstall, but if I put the disk in will it bypass this screen or what?
    Any hekp would be greatly appreciated.

  • Mac Mini 2010 Server Snow Leopard Install Issues

    I'm trying to install, well reinstall, OS X server on my 2010 Mac Mini Server. Everything is completely stock and I'm reinstallling via a Mac Book Air Superdrive and the OS X disc that came with my Mac mini. I'm installing it on the main disk partitioned to 100gb. Everytime I go to install it goes to restart and then I have no video. When I power down manually after this it only shows the CDROM as the boot disk but the drive shows ~7gb used when I get into disc tools. I've done this about 3 times now and I'm just about ready to return it. I'm using a Sony Bravia HDTV as the monitor via HDMI port for display. I don't have any other displays or macs to use either.

    Jnko, I've reinstalled the OSx server on my 2nd HD using the MBair Superdrive and all went well. After installation there is only 7G used so that is proper.
    If you're losing the video, try unplugging the HDMI cable and replugging at the point of failure. This usually resets the video.
    Hope this helps.

  • Solve the JavaFX crashing issue (libjogl.jnilib) on Mac Snow Leopard

    This is what happening to me and how did it get fixed.
    This issue concerns running JavaFX programs on Mac machines with Snow Leopard installed.
    Here is the story.
    I have two Mac machines: one is MacBook and the other is [Mac mini|http://www.apple-history.com/body.php?page=gallery&model=mac_mini_early_09&sort=date&performa=off&order=ASC]. Before I installed Snow Leopard, JavaFX programs were good at both machines. After upgrading to Snow Leopard, every JavaFX program on my MacBook crashed with messages saying that "libjogl.jnilib" causing an bad memory access. But they are still all good on my Mac mini. It's very annoying because if I accidentally went to a page with JavaFX applets on it, Safari got killed.
    I think there might be something wrong in my MacBook so I backup my data and did a clean install of Snow Leopard. Things remain unchanged. It still crashes all the time. Can't figure out why.
    So, I decided to get rid of the cause directly. I tried to search "libjogl.jnilib" on the disk but found that it is downloaded by need (one of the Java Web Start mechanisms), not a pre-existing file in the system. That is why reinstalling the system did not help.
    Then I went to the JOGL sample page, running a few samples through Java Web Start. They are good on my MacBook! So I compared the .jnlp files of the problematic JavaFX programs and JOGL samples. I found that if I put
    <extension name="jogl-all-awt" href="http://download.java.net/media/jogl/jsr-231-2.x-webstart/jogl-all-awt.jnlp" />in the .jnlp files of JavaFX programs, they will get healthy "libjogl.jnilib" and run good. Hooray!
    But I can't intervene in every JavaFX execution this way. So I download the latest JOGL binary, put them (.jar and .jnilib files) under "/System/Library/Java/Extensions/". Everything is fine now.

    Thanks,
    KeithI believe if something needs to be done, Mike will do it. He is very active in Apple's Java forum and after all he is the guy in Apple.
    I am still wondering why JavaFX is okay on my Mac mini. Maybe what happened to my MacBook is an extremely corner case because I can hardly find any other one seeing the same problem when I tried to google "crash", "libjogl.jnilib", "javafx", such keywords.

  • Will Mac OS X Snow Leopard INSTALL on a IMAc g3 slot lOADER?

    will Mac OS X Snow Leopard INSTALL on a IMAc g3 slot lOADER?
    Message was edited by: Youngzink13

    That's what we needed.
    Officially your iMac--known as a "tray-loader" for its optical drive type--can go to Panther (10.3.X). Panther is quite better than Jaguar (10.2.8) that you now have. You probably need more RAM than 160MB for even Jaguar. I feel that 384MB is about min for that OS.
    The big problem is that the early iMacs came with painfully small hard drives --4 to 6 G--and OSX need a lot of free space on the disk for efficient performance. It's hard to keep a Jaguar system under 2G with a few useful apps installed.
    Bottom line: you'll spent money for a hard-to-find retail OS install disk, more RAM, and a bigger hard drive, and you'll still have a slow computer that will always struggle with modern web pages. If you want to upgrade and experiment as a hobby or learnign experience and you can afford the parts and time, by all means--go for it. However, if cost is an issue, throwing money at this unit is not cost-effective in terms of how much more yo ucan get from it.

    Why won't Snow Leopard install on my Mac O S X 10.5.8 Intel core duo

    You need a minimum 1 GB of RAM.  It has to be of high quality*: http://www.macmaps.com/badram.html
    You should also look over this FAQ to make sure you didn't miss anything*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
    Note, in event you were interested in Lion, that Mac is not compatible with Lion unless you misidentified it.  Only MacBooks with machine ID 2,1 or later can upgrade to Lion (1,1 and 1,2 are earlier).  The Machine ID is in Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info.

  • HT3910 Restore old Mac using Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install DVD

    When I try to restore my old Mac, which I am preparing to sell, using the Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install DVD (OS X 10.6.8), I hear the optical disc drive spin up and down, then the disc is ejected.  This is the same thing that happens with its original OS X Install DVD, which was OS X 10.4.9.

  • Bought you Mac Mini from Amazon? Did it come with Snow Leopard installed?

    I want to buy a Mac Mini from Amazon simply because it's cheaper and there's no tax, the question is, does it come with Snow Leopard like the one from Apple does?
    I am not being a cheap @ss here, i lost my job and trying to save every penny i can.
    Totals:
    Amazon: $577.95
    Apple w/student discount: $599.78
    The 9.75% tax is killing us here in CA

    Even if it does not come with Snow Leopard installed, or the upgrade drop in disk, you should still be able to get it for S&H from Apple thru the Up-to-Date program.
    ... If you’ve purchased a qualifying computer or Xserve on or after June 8, 2009 that does not include Mac OS X Snow Leopard, you can upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard for $9.95.*
    This program ends December 26, 2009. Your completed order form must be postmarked or faxed within 90 days of the date of your purchase of a qualifying computer or Xserve (described in this offer) or by December 26, 2009, whichever is earlier.
    Also, you may want to look into Apple's refurbished Mac minis. They are usually a Mac that was DOA when shipped to a customer new and has been repaired by Apple. They are technically brand new and carry the same warranty. Occasionally they have surprises, like upgraded RAM.

    If Disk Utility cannot see your drive it doesn't look good.
    You could try DiskWarrior. It is expensive but can often fix directory structures where DU cannot.
    Replacing the drive is also a strong likelihood. If you don't have a fairly recent backup, then it might be worth buying DiskWarrior

  • MAC OS X Snow Leopard install disk won't install "with this version"

    Thanks!

    If you have an iMac running 10.7.4 as it says in your profile, why are you installing Snow Leopard?  If this is a different computer then it would really, really help to know something about it.

  • Windows 7 does not read drivers on my OS Snow Leopard Install dvd

    When I start the DVD and the setup.exe I get 2 options - Remote Install Mac OS X and DVD or CD Sharing, no drivers are being downloaded or appear to be on the DVD.
    Any ideas, please help.

    Ok, after 3 sleepness nights I have found a solution and finally have a working Windows 7 Ultimate. I hope this will be helpful for everyone having similar issues and not have to go through the same nightmare.
    Right away after logging in Windows for the first time insert the original Snow Leopard Install DVD and if Windows does not read it or install any drivers after clicking on setup.exe do the following:
    Right-click on Start » Programs » Accessories » Command Prompt
    Select Run as Administrator
    Type cd /d D:, then press Enter
    Type cd Boot Camp\Drivers\Apple, then press Enter
    Type BootCamp64.msi, then press Enter
    If you do not how to right click before installing the drivers the following:
    Click on Start
    Enter cmd in the search box
    Instead of hitting the Enter key use Ctrl + Shift + Enter and will open a dialog box
    Click Yes at the prompt and you will be running as an administrator.
    If you do not have the original install DVD go the this link and follow the instructions(including the ones from the last comment):

  • When will we get a fix for the Snow Leopard Compatibility issue??

    When will we get a fix for the Snow Leopard Compatibility issue?
    I am growing impatient not being able to use cross dissolve or titles.
    Its going to be a pain having to back out to OS 10.5. This is beginning to be like Windows Vista.

    You don't say what "..Snow Leopard Compatibility issue.." you're having.
    My titles and Dissolves - and everything else - work perfectly with iMovie HD 6 and with iMovie '09 in Snow Leopard.
    Perhaps you need to revert to QuickTime 7 ..just in case you over-wrote QT 7 with Snow Leopard's own QuickTime X when you upgraded to SL.
    QT7 and QT X both sit happily alongside each other in Snow Leopard ..you might want to give that a try.
    But I have no problem with any aspect of iMHD6 nor iM09 (..and no trouble with "stills"..) using Snow Leopard on a "late '08" MacBook Pro.
    I haven't yet installed SL (Family Pack) on my Mac Mini ..I'll let SL throw away my QT7 on that, and will see if that causes any problems with iMovie. If it does, I'll then download and re-install QT7 and see if that fixes any problems. But don't hold your breath ..I may report back tomorrow, but today I'm pretty busy! I'll do my best, though..
