NDesign, Photoshop incompatibility with Mountain Lion

I recently upgraded to my 10.5 to Mountain Lion and found that it won't support my Photo Studio (for my scanner), nDesign and Photoshop programs. Do I have to buy new programs or is there some app that will fix this?

Yes. You are most likely using older PPC programs that worked with Leopard but will not work with Mountain Lion. You will need to upgrade your software. Also, see:

  • IPhoto '09 seems to be incompatible with Mountain Lion

    Hi
    I am a long-standing major fan of Apple computers. This is because they allow me to work easily with images. I am an art historian and museum curator. My professional life is entirely about images ... or rather about images attached to data.
    For years I have been accumulating and categorising images using iPhoto. It has been the most wonderful tool. A clear, simple interface. The capacity to attach searchable free-text metadata. Wow, that simple feature makes this the most powerful application of any I have ever used.
    The problems started for me when iPhoto '11 first came out. This removed the capacity to compare photos side by side in full screen mode, a brilliant, simple and obviously powerful feature. As a consequence I did not upgrade, but stuck with iPhoto '09 (8.1.2).
    Now I discover that there seems to be a bug which means iPhoto '09 is not compatible with Mountain Lion. Whenever you go into Preferences the computer seizes up and has to be hard-booted. An Apple genius was unable to fix this for me. I've reinstalled the entire operating system to try and fix the problem, but it remains. I gathered from a discussion thread that it was simply an incompatibility with Mountain Lion.
    As a consequence I have purchased iPhoto '11 (9.4.1) and Aperture, which I was advised by the Apple Genius would be much better than iPhoto. I have converted my several iPhoto libraries. But I just cannot get anything resembling the clean functionality of iPhoto '09. Everywhere I am cluttered up with gadgetry which I cannot remove. It just is no longer possible to view photos with their basic metadata in a clear and simple way.
    The only way I can see forward is to downgrade to Lion, reinstall iPhoto '09, and live the rest of my life without ever upgrading to Mountain Lion.
    Forgive the long rant. I am sure people will be irritated and say I should not be using an application designed for holiday snaps for professional purposes. But that is not how I see it. iPhoto is part of the fundamental suite of utilities which makes an Apple computer what it is. That means it ought not to be designed with a single purpose in mind. We are creative people. We use our machines as it suits us to use them. Apple became what it is because it understood that.
    If anyone can point me in the direction of a image organiser which allows me to store photos with associated searchable free-text metadata, add dates of my own choosing to the images and to do this in a way which integrates with other applications as well as iPhoto, I'd be so very grateful.
    Otherwise I think it's going to have to be the downgrade.
    Or could this even be the moment come to abandon Apple? I'm due for a new machine. For the first time in 25 years and six Apple computers I'm going to be considering the competition. Any helpful suggestions would be very gratefully received.
    Thanks.

    Yes, that's it! You're brilliant. Thank you so, so much.
    Just in case anyone else reads this having had the same problem, the answer is (as Terence says) to delete anything which might cause the computer to try to link to a MobileMe account. My iPhoto libraries had old MobileMe photo galleries which I hadn't bothered about in years. It seems these caused the iPhoto Preference pane to attempt to access MobileMe whenever I opened it. This of course it could not do because the service is defunct and so the computer simply beachballed. In order to remove the MobileMe galleries I found I could only do it if I first disconnected my wireless network. All MobileMe references are gone now (I hope) and everything seems to be working well.
    Hugely grateful.

  • My newly bought Lindy USB Guitar lead is incompatible with Mountain Lion! Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Advice needed.
    I recently bought the Lindy USB Audio Guitar Cable. I have plugged it into the USB port of my MacBook Pro (running Mountain Lion) and the blue light has come on the USB end. When I go into System Preferences -------> Sounds --------> Input, nothing shows up to say that the cable has been recognised. I know that it should say something like 'C-Media USB Audio Device', but nothing! The USB slots work fine for all other peripherals i have, just not this.
    I have spoken to Lindy and they suggested that it may be incompatable with Mountain Lion!! (Advertised as compatable with all Macs!)
    Is there anything anyone can suggest to make this work? A 3rd party workaround? If not, does anyone know of a USB to Guitar lead that IS compatable with Mountain Lion?
    Very frustrating.
    Thanks

    For your product, you'll probably just need to wait for the manufacturer to release a ML compatible driver.
    As for other options, the one I've been using for about a year is IK Multimedia's iRig.

    It's actually designed for iPhone/iPad, but it also works perfectly with newer Macs that have a unified input/output headphone jack.

  • Is Adobe Photoshop CS5 compatible with Mountain Lion?

    I'm interested in getting a new laptop but like using Photoshop CS5.  Are there any compatibility issues using CS5 with Mountain Lion?

    Generally, users are having no problems with it in ML. Technically, Adobe support CS5.5, 6 and CC in ML, but a lot of folks are running even CS3 in ML.

  • Photoshop CS6 Tools and Cursor Issues with Mountain Lion

    Am using Photoshop CS6 on iMac 27inch with Mountain Lion. Experiencing inability to use the move tool to place one image on another after extraction. I place the move tool on the previously extracted image and drag it into an new image, but the extracted image does not get placed on the new image. Also, cursor disappears frequently when using Photoshop for extended periods of time.
    Anyone having similar problems?

    The cursor disappearing is a well known MacOS bug affecting all applications.
    Have you installed all the updates for CS6?
    And are you dragging from the layers palette, or from document to document?

  • Photoshop CS6 on Mountain Lion?

    I've got an iMac with 10.8.3  I just picked up a copy of Photoshop CS6 and I'm wondering how well it will run.  If needed, I could drop back to 10.6.8 (already tried it on this machine so I know it will work).  Just wondering how well Adobe and Apple are playing together these days.  Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA,
    Dennis

    Thanks for all of the input.  In the Adobe support pages, they seemed to "hesitantly" support use in ML.  Also, I've been working with Snow Leopard for some time, just got this new machine with Mountain Lion and I'm having trouble getting used to the interface - just subjectively it doesn't seem to be as "clean & smooth" as SL.  I'll probably get used to it.
    Thanks,

  • Is Elements 11 compatible with Mountain Lion?

    Having recently installed Elements 11 I find that images selected in iPhoto do not appear in Elements after the Edit command has been selected and Elements 11 is the selected external editor.
    Also any RAW image is shown as jpeg when dragged onto the Editor: how can I get the image to be shown as RAW and the relevant editing tools appear?

    Yes, Elements 11 is compatible with Mountain Lion.

  • Creative Suite CS6 Apps are crashing at launch with Mountain Lion

    It seems there is a compatibility issue running Mountain Lion OS with Adobe Creative Suite Apps. Most crash on launch. Lightroom seems to work and Photoshop and Bridge also. Dreamweaver CS6 crashes and I use this program all the time. I am thinking I should go back to Lion. Anybody else have this problem?

    Adobe had me do several things (complete re-install, mod the preferences, etc.) to my brand new 27" Imac, with Mountain Lion.
    CS4 worked perfectly until i installed CS6. Sad to say i have been having some issue on the new user account as well.
    As quoted by Team Adobe India,
    "We wanted to inform you that, if the application is working on one user account and causing issue on another, then there is very little that can be done to resolve it. All the steps have already been performed from our side.
    Please contact Apple, provide them with all the information and check with them if they can help you with troubleshooting the issue which is only on a specific user account."
    CS4 worked fine on Mountain Lion.
    CS6 is very unstable.
    +1 point for Apple, and to the dungeons for Adobe

  • CS 5 compatibility with Mountain Lion OS

    I'm thinking about installing Mountain Lion OS -10.8- and I would like to know if the CS5 -Photoshop, After effects, Premiere, Media Encoder, etc- is compatible with it or not. If it is not, what's the solution? Installing any complement to CS5? CS6?
    Thank you.
        Javier Lopez

    Yes, we can confirm that Audition CS6 is compliant with Mountain Lion (Mac OS 10.8) and their are currently no known issues between the product and the new OS.
    While Audition CS5.5 is not the latest version of Audition, I can also confirm that it appears to work just fine as well.
    With the minimal backend architectural changes made to the new Mac OS (between Lion and Mountain Lion), we see no reason for users to be concerned.
    I hope that helps.
    Thanks,

  • Mavericks: How can you deactivate scrolling like you could with Mountain Lion? I mean shut off, nothing else.

    Mavericks, mouse: How can you deactivate scrolling like you could with Mountain Lion? I mean shut off, nothing else, and I need it for photoshop. PS: Apple people: Mavericks is not satisfying - why turn good things bad? Urs Keller, Switzerland

    Open System Preferences then type scrolling in the search field top right corner of that window.
    There may be more than one way to do this for you.
