OpenGL 2.0–capable system (for CS6)

Is the iMac 2011 with AMD Radeon 6970m 2GB an OpenGL 2.0–capable system? Does anyone know how I can find this out? (I'm desperate to find out if the iMAC I just bought 18 days ago will support CS6 Production Premium)
Thank you!

Sometimes people puzzle me with their constant need to answer posts without knowledge on the subject. OpenGL 2.0 is already supported for r600-r700 in classic Mesa and we are rapidly progressing with OpenGl2.1+ . I believe Opengl3.0 gallium3d support will arrive during this year, with Mesa 8.0 . Then it will be a matter of time for r600g to catch up.
Of course performance needs improvement but things are really great right now. The base work is done and user-visible change will happen rapidly from now on.
Then I'm even more confused; the tutorial I mentioned should only require OpenGL 2.0 and it didn't compile on my system, I mailed the author who replied with something to the effect that he thinks ATI open source driver doesn't support OpenGL 2.
Should it work or not, running updated Arch with [testing] and r700 (not r600, I was mistaken earlier)?
You could try mesa from git (check on aur), and build gallium radeon. If you want to know how to find the gallium driver, check on src/gallium/ within the mesa source. You can be helped by the nouveau-dri-git PKGBUILD, which installs the Nouveau gallium driver. You can do the same thing for Radeon, by changing the names or paths.
While doing that, you could use the temporary [xorg18] repo, with xorg-server 1.8 or before doing that.
Also, you should use the latest kernel possible (kernel26-git).
As you can see, they are all still in experimental state, if you want to try, and if you have time, why don't you try it.
You could visit this thread for more info or even repos with the packages you may need --> http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=79509

Minimum operating system for CS6?

I am trying to upgrade to CS6 from CS4 and the installer said I needed a minimum operating system of OS X 10.6 and I have OS X 10.5.8. How can I install my new creative suite???

You could just upügrade your operating system?

Operating system for CS6

Can I use Windows 8 with CS6 and still use RAW files too? I saw that the RAW product doesn't work with CS6. I am going to need to replace my HP and the new one is likely to have Windows 8, Any non- Mac folks have a suggestion on the computer to purchase. HP 7P XXXX perhaps?

http://www.adobe.com/support/OScompatibility.html?promoid=GXVXG is the page and it is under OS compatibility as a stand alone product which is not compatible with Win 8.
A blank box seems to mean Not Applicable rather than incompatible.
Camera Raw used to be available as a standalone product. It is now a plugin for Photoshop CS6 and is part of the Lightroom 4 Develop module.
So the table is correct but slightly misleading since the Windows 8 box is blank but should say "No longer available as a standalone program".
Camera Raw runs fine in CS6 and LR4.4 on Windows 8.

Requirements for CS6

Hello,
I am a designer for the Web, as well as some print; however, I am not well-versed in hardware or networking and am seeking assistance. I have preordered a Creative Cloud Membership and am eagerly waiting for tomorrow to come!
I have been using CS4 on an HP 22558hc system (Vista SP2; 64-bit; 8GB RAM; and, AMD Phenom 9550 Quad-Core Processor 2.20 GHz) with no problems, except speed ... which I am realizing by watching many of the CS6 videos for Photoshop; I wasn't alone waiting for my changes to appear (in CS4) and CS6 will render the changes almost as they happen.
I primarily work with Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, and I have just begun to use Premier, but I am looking forward to checking out all of the other apps which come with the Cloud membership.
All that said, I just purchased a new system: HP h8-1237c desktop (Win7; 64-bit; 10GB RAM; and, Intel Core i5 2320, up to 3.0 GHz, four cores). The specs are here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03152381&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=5 205738#N451
If someone could help me determine if the h8-1237c will be sufficient for Creative Cloud, I'd appreciate it.
I reviewed the specs from: http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
Comparing Adobe CS6 specs with the HP h8-1237c:
Adobe: OpenGL 2.0–capable system
     I cannot tell, by HP specs, if its OpenGL 2.0?
Sound/Audio
Adobe: Sound card compatible with ASIO protocol or Microsoft Windows Driver Model
     The h8-1237c has:
           Built-in High Definition 8 channel audio
          IDT 92HD89E CODEC
          I cannot tell if this audio is ample?
Adobe: Supported NVIDIA graphics cards for GPU acceleration
     The h8-1237c has:
          Video graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 520
          This NVIDIA is not listed on Adobe's page, so apps using it won't run as fast or run at all?
There is a "Learn More" link on the tech-specs.html page to help find the best workstation; however, that page is for CS5. I imagine we have to wait until CS6 is Live, before it will update. Too, I don't have my new system out of the box yet, as I hesitate to do so until I am a bit more certain I will be keeping it.
Thank you in adavance for all of your assistance.

>new HP has 2T of hard drive; more than ample
You will be able to slowly edit SD (Standard Definition) with only one hard drive, and VERY slowly if you try to edit HD (High Definition)
With only a 300w power supply, I'm not sure if you can add a 2nd hard drive... so I think your entire editing experience is going to be one of learning patience while things happen... slowly
The reason why I say that...
My 3 hard drives to edit AVCHD are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and ALL program installs (2)
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 paging swap file and video project files
When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folders and files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (1)
(1) for faster input/output with 4 drives
- use drive 3 for all source files
- use drive 4 for all output files
(2) only 60Gig used, for Win7 & CS5 MC & MS Office & other smaller programs
Search Microsoft to find out how to redirect your Windows paging swap file
http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
I do not use RAID... AVCHD is CPU intensive, not drive intensive like uncompressed, so I have no problems editing without RAID (but, this is for "simple" home videos)

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/784220?tstart=0
Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
Partition = Crash http://forums.adobe.com/thread/957286
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

Installed, licensed, and working Creative Suite CS3 fails. How do I clean Adobe off my system for new installation?

I run Macbook Pro with Mavericks. I have a licensed copy of Creative Suite CS3 installed. It simply stopped working. InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator close upon opening. Tried repairing the installation, uninstalling, and reinstalling. Didn't work. The reinstallation did no provide an opportunity to enter the serial number. Tried CS5cleaner. Didn't work. It left the applications installed and deleted the uninstall application. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The system requirement for CS3 is :
Macintosh
PowerPC® G4 or G5 or multicore Intel processor (Adobe Premiere® Pro, Encore®, and Soundbooth™ require a multicore Intel processor; Adobe OnLocation™ CS3 is a Windows application and may be used with Boot Camp)
Mac OS X v.10.4.9; Java™ Runtime Environment 1.5 required for Adobe Version Cue® CS3 Server
1GB of RAM for DV; 2GB of RAM for HDV and HD; more RAM recommended when running multiple components
24GB of available hard-disk space to install all core components (up to 1GB of additional free space may be required during installation); custom installing select components requires less space
Dedicated 7,200 RPM hard drive for DV and HDV editing; striped disk array storage (RAID 0) for HD; SCSI disk subsystem preferred
Core Audio compatible sound card
1,280x1,024 monitor resolution with 32-bit video card; Adobe recommended graphics card for GPU-accelerated playback
For OpenGL support: Some 3D features in Photoshop CS3 Extended require an OpenGL 1.4 capable graphics card with at least 64MB of VRAM; Adobe After Effects® supported OpenGL 2.0 card (NVIDIA recommended)
DVD-ROM drive
Blu-ray burner required for Blu-ray Disc creation
SuperDrive required for DVD burning
QuickTime 7.1.5 software required to use QuickTime features
Internet or phone connection required for product activation
Broadband Internet connection required for Adobe Stock Photos* and other services
Please compare it with your system specification.

A PDF document with information about activation for CS6 software

Here's a PDF document with information about activation for CS6 software.
I found it very useful for understanding how the system worked for activation of perpetual licenses, both in cases where the computer is and isn't connected to the Internet.

Ann, with some browsers, the PDF document will download in the background rather than appear in a browser window.

I bought a volume license for CS6. How do I now get a serial number for prior version (CS5.5)?

I bought a volume license for CS6 Design Standard. Because of my system restrictions for now I can only run a prior version (CS5.5). I have also previously downloaded its trial version which works perfect. Now, after buying a license for CS6 I would like to get a serial number for a prior version as well. How would I go about receiving it?
Many thanks in advance!
Nelle

Hi Nelle,
You can request downgrade from Adobe, but you can't get back to CS6 after that, so it might be better to upgrade your system?
Anyway, in my laptop CS6 has been running faster and better than CS5.5 without any changes to system, so you could give it a try before downgrading...

I can't seem to get my headphones to work on my iPad mini when using iTunes remote.
I can stream to any Airplay capable system perfectlyvia Remote and control iTunes on my iMac as advertised.
Just want to be able to listen to iTunes on my iPad "wirelessly"

Yay!
I discovered this lovely little forum entry that solved my problem!
(Remember this is for Windows, I'm not sure if the same will work for Mac)
This is what you do:
1: Have iTunes up and plug in your iPod.
2: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons down until the iPod shuts down.
3: When the screen is blank, release the Sleep/Wake and just hold the Home button down for about 15 seconds.
4: After then, iTunes will recognize an I iPod in Recovery Mode.
5: That's when iTunes will ask you to Update/Restore your iPod.
I'm pretty sure those are the steps.
(If anything is wrong, can someone fix it, please?)
But that really does work.
The writer said that his iPod was "stuck on the apple screen, and not going anywhere after that."
That was my issue, so hopefully this will work for you!

Adobe Air necessary for CS6?

On a fresh install of Lion, I now see Adobe Air Installer and Uninstaller. Not sure what they do, but wanted to see if they are needed by CS6. I'm only running Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Adobe Bridge.
Thanks for any help.

Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR), also known as Adobe AIR, is a cross-platform runtime environment developed by Adobe Systems for building rich Internet applications using Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex, HTML, or Ajax, that can be deployed as desktop applications.

Hardware Build for CS6 Production Premium

First: Thank you for all of the information in this forum. I've done a bunch of reading and there is lots of good information about a many issues.
Second: I am looking for advice on a build for CS6 Production Premium. I don't want top of the line, but a decent midgrade setup. I've done a bunch of reading and I think that I have a reasonable system, but would appreciate some advice. The last time I built a computer was the 1990s when we still had to set DMA and IRQ channels, so I'm a bit rusty.
Case: Cooler Master Cosmos II Ultra Tower RC-1200-KKN1
Motherboard: Asus Z9PE-D8 WS Dual LGA 2011 Intel C602
Two - Intel Xeon E5-2630 V2 Ivy Bridge 2.6GHz six core processors.
Two - Intel STS200C CPU heat sinks.
240 Pin 1600 MHz DDR 3 RAM. 16 GB adequate or 32 GB for a good balance on this system? (Don't really want to goto 64GB, but will if necessary.) Is it better to fill all 8 slots on the mother board or better to have more GB per card and run with 4 empty slots on the mother board?
Crucial M4 256GB SSD SATA boot disk CT256M4SSD2.
Six: 2 TB 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/S Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 hard drives in a RAID 3 configuration with five drives in service and one in standby. (The SSD plugged into the 6GB/s SATA plug and the six 2TB plugged into the C602 SATA 3GB/S plugs? Nothing plugged into the Marvell SATA plugs?
The mother board doesn't support RAID 3 and I have no RAID experience, so I'm guessing that I need a dedicated RAID controller for this? If so, is an Areca ARC-1224-8I a good fit, or is there a better choice?
Pioneer BDR-2208 blu-ray burner.
Rosewill 1300 watt 80 plus gold power supply.
Soundblaster ZxR PCIe sound card.
Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1
Two - Dell UltraSharp U2413 24" LED LCD monitors.
Now the $3 question: Video card(s). Is a single GeForce GTX690 adequate to run the various applications in Production Premium? A GTX Titan? Quadro K4000? I don't really want to go to the Quadro K5000, but will if forced.
The only software on the computer will be Windows 7, Adobe CS6, and either McAfee or Norton, along with whatever drivers are needed for the systems. I'll stay away from quicktime as it seems to gum up the works according to some advisers on this forum.
Is there anything that I am missing, hardware wise or installation pointers?
Thank you for any assistance!

I am considering a similar build for heavy Photoshop and Lightroom use. Currently on and older i7-1358 pin 3.0Ghz XEON cpu, I'm considering either a new i7-4930 or dual Xeons as you are. The reason for the Xeons is ability to use ECC memory and add more cores. This is a production system in daily use so I'd probably not be overclocking.
Interested in your and others views on this. Previous to my current system, I'v always had dual socket Pentiums, Athalons or Opterons, someof which are still in service but in a reduced roll.
I typically use fast drives, some SAS, 15K & 10K (SSDs now where it makes sense) and RAID where necessary, especially for SWAP drives in Photoshop along with lots of memory..
Thanks for any input here. Basically ECC vs non ECC (I know there is a speed hit with ECC, but really - how much?). Overclock (i7-4930) or non overclocking (Xeons)
I should also mention, Culch, that I am considering the same CPUs and MB as you.
Thanks for reading.

I need to get raw plugin for Canon 5D Mark iii for CS6 the adobe website has changed and I can not find the download.. it keeps looping me back to the product download page without the raw

Which operating system are you using?
Have you tried Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to get either camera raw 8.3 or 8.7.1, which should enable photoshop cs6 to open the canon 5D Mark III files.
(version of camera raw depends on your operating system)
If that doesn't work try one of the following camera raw plugin installers:
Camera raw 8.7.1 plugin
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
If you have windows xp or vista or mac os x snow leopard (10.6.8), then you'll have to use the camera raw 8.3 plugin installer:

HSB/HSL Filter for CS6?

Does anyboy know how to get the old HSB/HSL filter into CS6?
I've tried to copy both the CS3 and CS5 version of that filter into the CS6 directory sturcture, but the filter does not appear. No errors, just no appearance under Filters.
I have a handful of actions that use that filter to generate saturation masks. A number of forum threads have tried and failed to reproduce the equivalent saturation mask using available Photoshop functions.
Maybe it will be there under "Goodies" when the official release is made, maybe not. Or maybe it's hidden in the Beta download, but I can't find it.
Good news is that the few other custom filters I use work fine when simply copied from the CS5 directory to the CS6 directory. These are the Topaz products and Imagineomic Noiseware and Portraiture.

Got it, thanks for making me look again.
Had to RTFM to remember that with CS5 the HSB/HSL filter is bundled in a file called OptinalMultiPlugin.8BF.
Previously I just used search for all filenames containing "hsb". Only found a 1KB file called "Adobe HSBHSL Filter CS5 Prefs" (no extension) in a folder called "Adobe Mondo Filter CS5" in the users "Roaming" folder tree. copied that to CS6 with no joy. Still don't know what that is.
But copying the OptionalMultiPlugin.8BF to a plugin folder for CS6 works. The filter appears under the "Other" category and functions OK.
For the fun of it, I counted 13 different Adobe CS5/CS6 "plugins" folders now on my system! Less fun trying to figure out which ones CS6 uses.
