MS Office Under Rosetta on the MB 2 GHz

Anyone else find that scrolling down in the document freezes for a while and then suddenly jumps 10 to 15 seconds later?

Just for kicks I googled "large word document" and it came up with this link:
http://www.cobar.org/group/display.cfm?GenID=3676
I downloaded the 522 page word document. It took about a minute to open all 522 pages but when it did I can scroll up and down WITHOUT any pause whatsoever.

CS v1 under rosetta

will creative suite v1.1 or v1.3 run under rosetta?
I know cs2 will and fully planned to purchae it. After reading reviews it appears that most were not happy with the upgrades and consider the previous version to be superior and to run faster!
Kalel

Hmmm well I have heard cs3 might be coming before the end of the year, but that is still going to delay my project. I have an old copy of elements 2.0 for mac.
It's is pretty old and I'm not even sure where it is. Could I use this under rosetta in the mean time?
Photoshop is what I use 80% of the time so this may get me by for several months, although that may just be wishfu thinking.
Does anyone know i there is a definitive list of what will run under rosetta or is it just a try and fail process?

Scrolling lag in MS Word 2004 under rosetta

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has any tips to speeding up scrolling in MS Office 2004 under rosetta on an intel mac. In particular, word seems to lag, sometimes for a few seconds, sometimes it does this each time I scroll with the scroll wheel. If I click the mouse while it is lagging, it seems to come back to life and scrolls again.
I understand that rosetta isn't going to give me native performance, but I don't seem to have this lag in other PPC programs. Will rosetta performance be improved in Leopard? I really can't wait for Office 2008 to be released, I use Word every day for my work and it will make a huge difference to me!

Hi,
I tried pulling out the margins all the way the the edge, but I'm still experiencing the problem. I also tried reducing the image size significantly with no success. Any suggestions?
I also tried deleting the image. With the image gone, the extra page goes, too. The page with the section break is still there but mysterious page #2 is gone. When I import the image again, though, I re-create the problem.
I just realized I didn't try the 'Use Printer metrics to layout document' that Paul suggested and might look into that.
Any other suggestions? I hesitate to do it because the document is somewhat elabourate, but I might try rebuilding the first few pages in a new document to see if I add the image first and then add the text if it will solve the problem.
One other question. When I reveal invisible formatting, it does show two paragraph marks in the footer. This is the same for all footers on every page in the entire document. Could that be causing the problem? If so, do you know if it is possible to delete only the footer on the first page?
One other clue: I used to have a graphic on the back page and now that I think of it, there was a blank page after it, too. It sure sounds like your tiling description...
Thanks again for your help.

Endianness when running under Rosetta?

Hi all,
I have a Carbon application which is reading binary data from a file's resource and then has to work with that data. I know the endianness of the data on disk so I used to do a byte-swap when necessary (after using ReadPartialResource() to get the data into my variable).
I dutifully converted all those unconditional byte-swaps to CFSwapInt32BigToHost() in order to make sure that things work correctly when running on an Intel machine (since the application is not universal, the app is running under Rosetta on Intel machines).
Today I tested the application on an iMac Intel CoreDuo (in my local Apple Store) - things worked just fine. However, even the old version with unconditional byte-swapping works correctly...
Does this mean the "Host" on in Intel machine is still big endian? Anybody can corroborate this or point me to documentation of this behaviour?
Thanks,
Andreas

Hi,
to support the other posters intention: I would not need an emulator, if any code could be run between to processor types. If I have an emulator, it has to give a complete emulation of one processor another. If VirtualPC would have used BigEndians, no wndows would have ever started on those. So the other way round I assume that Rosetta will think Big (in Endianess).

Live Office does not retain the Custom Sorting applied in a Webi report

Hi,
We have a Webi report in which we applied "Custom Sorting" to sort the Business Names in the required order. However, when we import that to excel using live office, excel doesnt retain the same format and there are not much options that are available within xcelsius to do the sorting. I have gone through various posts here but none resolved this specific issue.
Here is our environment:
Xcelsius 4.5
Live Office Frame work 11.5.5.525
BOXI R2 SP1 and MHF1
I tried using different options under "Report View formatting" within live office options but none seem to have made any difference. Unfortunately we can't make any changes to the universe in this case. I checked for few paid addon's but they seem to be for Xcelsius 2008. We have a release next week and would appreciate if any of you can guide me to solve this issue.
Thanks
Pavan

hi pavan
i can just tell you that i had no issues with custom column sorting in webi with Enterprise XI 3.0 and Xcelsius 2008.

Safari issues "fixed" running under Rosetta

I have found that unless you run Safari under Rosetta there are compatability problems with some sites. In particular, I was unable to load images of my old computer to that auction site when running native but it works fine if I run Safari under Rosetta. I read elsewhere in this forum that there are Flash issues as well.
I have reported this to Apple so let's hope we get a new version or an OS update soon!

viking79,
Choose Get Info for the Safari app. Click the
checkbox "Open using Rosetta."
Jim R.
Is there a way I can make a shortcut for each method of opening Safari? So I could click one icon to launch it in Rosetta, and another to launch it native? Or it would be nice if I could just right click on the icon in the Dock and select Rosetta or native.
Thanks

Just try it.
Place the onject in Filters and right click and select restict.

[Intel] Any list of Universal Binaries and apps running under Rosetta?

Hi!
Sorry, I'm not sure about posting into the right group, but found no other place with similar threads...
I just try to figure out if all my apps will run under Rosetta or are available as Universal Binaries (and how much will the vendors charge for them). It's really a pain...
Do you folks know any web site or forum with a "Rosetta compatibility list" and an overview about available Universal Binaries?
I will not consider a change without e. g. a working backup solution (Retrospect), AppleWorks, EyeTV and a few other apps...

Mike,
AppleWorks seems to work unter Rosetta (referring to
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=314806
My greatest concern is Dantz' Retrospect and I haven't found a testing or even an information a Dantz' web site, yet.
But replacing my iBook with a MacBook wouldn't happen in the near future anyway...

Are you running on a Retina machine? The lastest updates to Office 2011 support Retina display native mode - have you gone under the Help menu to see if there are updates available?

Is rosetta killing the shadows of the whole system?

is rosetta killing the shadows of the whole system?
when i start an adobe app which needs rosette (photoshop, indesign, illustrator .. all CS2), all shadows of all windows (finder, mail .. every dropped shadow of any app in the whole system) are broken (ugly black lines instead of the smooth shadows).
i have to restart the macbook to solve this problem. very anoing.
ms office is doing well .. no such problem.

I'm having the drop-shadow problem, too (it's been showing up on my MacBook since the machine arrived three days ago); for those who haven't seen it, here's a screen capture.
But for me, it doesn't appear to be a Rosetta issue. I can sometimes use Rosetta apps (like Eudora) for hours without it happening, and when it does happen for me, it's often just on one or two windows, in apps like Terminal and Finder.
I called Apple Support yesterday; they said to take it in to a Genius bar. I did that today; the Geniuses on duty (who were very friendly and polite) said they'd never seen anything like it. One of them recommended re-seating the RAM (I haven't done that yet, but will shortly), and if that didn't work, doing an archive-and-install. Which I can do, but it's a little frustrating; this happened right out of the box (modulo my files and apps that got copied over from my PBG4, which of course didn't have this problem), so I don't think reinstalling the OS is going to help. But I suppose it's worth a try. (The Genius offered to do the reinstall for me, of course, but I hadn't quite backed up everything so I declined.)
Anyway, I'm posting 'cause (a) I wanted to let you know you're not alone, (b) I wanted to weigh in on the Rosetta aspect, and (c) I wanted to point people to the screen snap in case they haven't seen it.
I suppose I may as well point to my full journal entry for more details.

InDesign under Rosetta

Hello All,
I've had a moderately stress-free transition to my new iMac (a few probs with quicktime and an HP2600n printer). I installed Adobe CS 2 and everything seemed OK - PS and Illustrator so far seem fine and relatively snappy. Unfortunately I'm having a bit of trouble with InDesign.
When setting the default measurement in preferences to mm (or any other) the computer adds a ridiculous amount of decimal points to all measurements in the application.
For example if I add a text box and enter a width value of 3.5mm, InDesign changes it to 3.5005005005005003mm.
I've never had this issue in 4 years of everyday use
Could anyone with the CS Suite installed on an Intel Mac see if they can replicate this problem? I'd like to work out whether it's happening exclusively under Rosetta. I've checked the Adobe forums and there's nothing there so I'm hoping you guys could shed a little light.
Many thanks

iMac 20" 2GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hi Dan,
Do you mean CS2's Version Cue pref pane? If so, I don't think it could be that as I was aware of the 'won't work' issues and purposely didn't install Version Cue. I don't think CS2 has any other preference panes. The problem is with all units of measurement and I've searched high and low for anything about decimal points etc.
With ref to CS2 in general, like I said earlier all appears fine so far (apart from Indesign). I was pleasantly surprised by photoshop and ran the radial blur test on the horse image in 59 seconds! It all seems quick at the mo but I have installed maximum RAM and my last Mac was a 1Ghz iMac!
I had a probelm printing to my hp2600n yesterday (it's driver was not in the list of supported printers). I reinstalled the driver this morning and it seems to be working OK. The hp2600 icon doesn't appear in the dock or in the list of printers but thats only a cosmetic thing. I've yet to try my scanner - it's about 5 years old so I'm not too confident. Hopefully I'll be able to use Vue Scan with it.
Please everyone let me know your CS2 feedback/issues
Cheers

Where does one set space after paragraph in the new Pages 5.0? It used to be under text in the Inspector in the previous version, but I just can't find it in this new version.

Where does one set space after paragraph in the new Pages 5.0? It used to be under text in the Inspector in the previous version, but I just can't find it in this new version. Paragraphs seem to only be dealt with in styles, and the Formatting window for text doesn't seem to have the space after paragraph contrtol that the older Inspector had. What am I missing?

Sorry I did this without looking:
Side panel >Text > Style > Spacing > Turn the triangle > Before Paragraph/After Paragraph/

Hi,
I am getting a warning message on screen, saying that myiPad hasn't been backed up to iCloud for two weeks, and advising under what circumstances the message appears. My problem is, is that I have backed it up, but am unable to remove the message, and whilst the message is there, the iPad is frozen, and I cannot do anything.
Has any other user had such a problem, and if so, how did they rectify it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used. Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash. If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first. Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
P.S. MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control. Mac is the shorthand for Macintosh, the operating system and computers made by Apple Inc.
