Macbook Pro and Photoshop CS2, Photoshop Elements 4.0?

I own CS2 for the Mac and use it on my G5. I've already gone through the attempts to install it on my MacBook Pro and had the setup program hang. Ok, so I have to wait for a fix from someone to get that going.
Does anyone know if PS Elements 4.0 for the Mac will successfully install and run on the MB Pro? If so, that's good enough for what I want to do right now and I'll go get one. However, if it's going to produce the same hang in setup, I'm no further ahead with that solution.
I'm open to ideas.. thanks.
Dennis

I have one of the new 17" MBPs. Photoshop CS2 and pretty much the rest of my Adobe CS2 package installed without any problems, but none of them will run. I keep getting the "This program unexpectedly terminated" message. I have the Quicktime update. In fact, as I wrote this post, Quicktime just "Unexpectedly" quit. Am I doing something wrong, or is there something very amiss with the new MBPs?

  • Using a MacBook Pro and Adobe CS2 and Macromedia Studio

    I was planning on buying a MacBook Pro. Right now my Dell desktop has a 2.4ghz Celeron and I really want to get my first Mac. I'm sick of Windows!! I was wondering how Studio and CS2 (especially Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Flash Pro) will run under Rosseta on the 1.83ghz compared to my Celeron? And how much RAM will I need?
      Windows XP   Slow Celeron

    Cannot speak about CS2 for macs as I have only used it on Windows. When I bought my new mac I could only afford to buy one suite, so now I only use the Macromedia Studio package as this contains more of what I need. In particular it contains Fireworks (as a replacement for CS2) which is sufficient for the level of photo editing I need, plus I find it easier to create web graphics. Also I like the way it interacts with Dreamweaver and Flash sweetly. Maybe worth considering instead of CS2 if your budget is a little tight like mine was!
    Now, Performance. The loading times are between 4 and 8 seconds, depending on the number of other processes I have running, which for Adobe products is fairly comparible to Windows I seem to remember. When loaded I bearly notice any lag times at all - occasionly when you try and do too many things too quickly you get the classic beachball for a few seconds, but as long as you are a little more calm when using them they are perfect - as good as on Windows I'd say.
    Considering I have a 1.83 GHZ with only 1 GB RAM the performance left me very impressed. Can't wait for the Universal versions as they are going to be "screamers"!
    PS - people have posted differences in performance when using Rosetta apps when using the same spec machines. So what someone may say using the same machine as you may not actually be what you experience...

  • I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?

    I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?  Does anyone use photoshop on your mac?

    Adobe is moving from the purchase of a license for their software to the renting of it. I'm old school so I'd prefer a perpetual license. But you already have a subscription to Illustrator so I guess it'd be advisable to look into whether expanding the subscription to include other software will save you some money. Also I remember something about Adobe adding features to its Cloud version which aren't also added to the licensed version and a different way of handling updates and upgrades. Indeed, Adobe states that CS 6 has reached the end of the road. So if you're going to stay with Adobe, you may very well be stuck.
    I'd suggest spending some time in the Adobe Communities. You'll likely find people complaining about choices they've made that you'll have to make too. Let them be the beta testers.

  • How well does a Macbook pro and a Macbook air run Xcode, Photoshop and Dreamweaver?

    How well does a Macbook pro and a Macbook air run Xcode, Photoshop and Dreamweaver?

    MacBook Pro - no problem, it is an extremely popular computer for running that software. Just look at the Adobe demo videos of their products, most of the time you can see a MacBook Pro running the software in their video.
    MacBook Air - should be just as good most of the time.
    However, if you get involved in heavy Photoshop work like highly stacked layers/masks/channels, 16 bits per channel or up, or merging HDR or panoramas, the MacBook Pro may be better because it can take 16GB RAM while the MacBook Air can take only 8GB RAM.
    Also, if you are going to do serious programming in XCode or Dreamweaver, you may find the MacBook Air screen to be too small for all of the code windows and tool palettes that you may want to open and arrange in those programs. The 15" Retina screen of the MacBook Pro will let you spread out your work and do less window switching. The 11/"13" MacBook Air screens are both smaller and non-Retina so not as sharp.
    Even Photoshop is nicer on the 15" MacBook Pro because of the extra screen space for the image with less intrusion by the tool palettes.
    In short, if you are a casual user the MacBook Air will be great. If you are a professional with a heavy workload the MacBook Pro may be more efficient overall due to the larger screen and higher RAM capacity.

  • MacBook Pro and Adobe CS and CS2

    Hello fellow Mac Lovers...I am in desperate need of your help!
    I am a graphic designer and I am really wanting to switch over to a Mac. However, I can only afford a MacBook Pro right now plus I need the convenience. Now here is my dilemma: I was told by an Apple representative that the MacBook Pro cannot support Adobe products (which is what I use & would need primarily in my Mac) but I was told by a CompUSA representative that they can. So I'm confused.
    Does anyone here have a MacBook Pro and use Adobe software such as Photoshop and Illustrator on it? If not, does anyone know if the MacBook Pro can support Adobe CS2 software?
    This may seem like a dumb question but I really need your help, if I can't use Adobe CS or CS2 on my MacBook then I will not be able to buy it!
    Thank you!

    I use both Photoshop and Illustrator, CS versions, on my MBP in my work, although I’m not a graphic designer. Compared to my Windows PC, I notice that it takes longer to start the program on the MBP by four seconds (I tested just for you), but on successive startups, the MBP beats the PC by that same four seconds, go figure.
    Working with large files, I don’t actually perceive much difference, but to me Adobe software has never been “snappy.” I’m also not an expert with Photoshop and Illustrator, and don’t do anything really intensive (except for personal stuff)---but the files clients send are sometimes huge, and the MBP seems to handle it just fine. I suspect that for you it might seem slower, but that’s just a guess. When Adobe upgrades their software to universal binary in the next year, it should be quite fast.

  • I got a new MacBook pro and want to install my lightroom and elements 11.

    I uninstalled both programs on my old computer and this computer were set to factory setting and sold.

    Hi,
    thanks for mail. I now tried again to activate lightroom by copying the serial number on Adobe webside/my account. Unfortunately same result: I got the following message:
    The serial number is invalid. Please try again: if the problem persist, please contact customer support.
    Unfortunately the could or would not help - only referred to this chat page.
    I have serial numbers for both version 4 and 5 and of course downloaded the latest, which is version 5.
    regards

    Hi Kaj,
         firstly this is a user to user forum so it's not our website, nevertheless I'm sure we can help you.
    Firstly, are the serial numbers you're using for the same version of Lightroom?
    If they are, then I'd suggest copying the serial numbers straight from your profile on the Adobe website to the Lightroom screen rather than retyping.  It's easy to mistype even when you're sure you're not (we've had several such instances in the past).
    Can you five us the exact wording of the error message (or a screen grab as long as it doesn't reveal the serial numbers as this a public forum)?

    Okay, then you have made a whole bunch of trouble for yourself. First, download and run this:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    and then you can manually remove as many bits of PSE as you can find. Not only the application itself, but also in hard drive>library>application support>adobe. And go to your username>library>preferences and delete everything there pertaining to PSE. That library is hidden. To see it, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.
    Then go here to download the installer and install it from scratch. You can never move an installed copy of PSE (except for the app store version):

    I am having some huge problems with my colorspace settings. Every time I upload my raw files from my Canon 5D mark II or 6D the pics are perfect in color. That includes the back of my camera, the pic viewer on my macbook pro, and previews. They even look normal when I first open them in photoshop. I will edit, save, and then realize once i've sent it to myself to test the color is WAY off. This only happens in photoshop. I've read some forums and have tried different things, but it seems to be making it worse. PLEASE HELP! Even viewing the saved image on the mac's pic viewer is way off once i've edited in photoshop. I am having to adjust all my colors by emailing myself to test. Its just getting ridiculous.

    Check the color space in camera raw, the options are in the link at the bottom of the dialog box. Then when saving make sure you save it to the srgb color space when sending to others. Not all programs understand color space and or will default to srgb. That won't necessarily mean it will be accurate, but it will put it in the ballpark. Using save for web will use the srgb color space.
