Photoshop CC compatibility macbook pro 10.6.8

Hello
I have a macbook pro mid 2010 (originally 10.6.8 - now mavericks) which means that I only have 256 of VRAM on my NVIDIA graphic card and 288 on the built in Intel graphic card. I can see on the requirements page (Systemkrav | Photoshop) that Photoshop CC requires at least 512 MB VRAM.
Does this mean that it is useless for me to have Photoshop CC with my graphic card? Or will it work fine with normal image retouching and does this bad compatibility only have a say with 3D images? When I first opened photoshop CC it promted me with something like - the OpenGL has been disabled.. and something about 3D images.
(OR does the 2 graphic cards together make up my available VRAM? that is 256+288 = 544 VRAM? Forgive me if this is a silly question.. I don't know much about grpahic cards!)
Hope someone with more computer skills than me can answer my question

You can use Photoshop CC on that system, but you won't have access to the 3D tools, or all the advanced GPU features.
No, VRAM is not additive across multiple cards.

Installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 on MacBook Pro OS 10.7.5, now my DVD player does not work. Ideas?

I installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 on MacBook Pro, OS 10.7.5. Now my DVD player will not work. Any ideas?

Problem solved. Yes, it was a coincidence. The problem had to do with my DVD preferences, not the Adobe installation. Thanks for your reply.

I need help installing Photoshop on my Macbook Pro.

I am trying to install Photoshop on my Macbook pro running OSX 10.6.8 for my student photographer daughter. Every time I try to install either the 30 day trial or buy the monthly plan it tells me that the computer can't establish a secure connection and suggests that the url has changed. I checked it on my Mac at work, today but it looks fine. She needs Photoshop, not necessarily the fastest newest version for college, but needs to use it from this older Macpro. Any thoughts?

Adobe Photoshop CS2 in Macbook Pro

During installation of Adobe Photoshop CS2, the installer runs and freezes in the midst. There is no way of installing Adobe Photoshop CS2 with intel processor. Full reinstallation of Mac OSX doesn't help. Running disk utility doesn't help either. Problems occurred with or without installing of Apple Security Update 2006-003(intel). Any comments?

Edwin, thanks for the input, and I do apologize. You are right. I should be easier with which to live. There are two major problems out there right now. That is also part of the problem. We are not used to two problems in our domain.
I own 20 Mac's in my office, and I only did these updates on my MacBook Pro 17 inch and my G5 Dual 2.3 Ghz machine that has two 30-inch Cinema Displays. I had both problems on my MacBook Pro, and the G5 had the reboot glitch. I won't update the other machines untill these problems are resolved by the OEMs.
Of the two major hiccups out there, this link indicates Quicktime's update is the source of the inability to restart machines, fixed by deleting startup items, I believe. I had this reboot problem also.

Accrobat's freezing the system, the question at hand, is a result of the Security Update, fixed by rolling back to a pre-Security Update state using Archive & Install re-installation of the OS. Archive & Install does not erase your files or network settings.
Apple has released two products that fouled these systems. Bad Quality Assurance I think. I am not sure if the Security Update problem is an Apple or an Adobe software problem, i.e., Adobe may have not followed some software guidance. I am certain both companies are aware of the problem, but I am uncertain of the fix for Acrobat. We probably do need to update for security, but I can't live without Acrobat. So I will wait it out without the Security Update.

Photoshop CS6 on MacBook Pro

Ok, so i downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CS6 on my MacBook using the Adobe Download Assistant. My net speed is really slow (30 kb/s) so it took a while. Now the programme is 'Extractiong files' and also says "this may take a while."
the extraction has been going on for 2-3 hours now. is something wrong?
Also, i can see a file named 'Photoshop_13_LS16.dmg' (size: 774.1 MB) on the MacBook. but when i click on it, it gives me a message saying that the disk image couldnt be opened (reason: illegal seek)
Should i wait more?
(i have OSX Lion. the MacBook Pro is a 13" mid-2012 base model)
Also, i am using FileVault2.

No there is no ned to wait any longer. The download apparently was not successful and the reason you are receiving this error is because it is incomplete. You can either cancel the download and try again or initiate a direct download by following the steps listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.

Photoshop resolution on Macbook Pro 15" Retina display too small

I've just bought a Macbook Pro 15" and I'm trying to use Photoshop, but the resolution its displaying the images at for 100% are too small. I have to design for the web, so need to be intricate with detail, but I'm finding it adjusts the resolution of the image right down. (I mean you can see the image clearly, but it's too small to edit). When I look at Safari and see a web page at 100% it's clear, but the same page displayed in Photoshop CC appears 50% of the size (even though it says it's 100%)
If I move the application window to another screen it adjusts it correctly – leaving all the pallettes, menus and tools correctly sized as they are on the retina display
Is there some way to adjust the way Photoshop CC displays images so it is more consistent with what you actually see?
There doesn't seem to be any answer on the Adobe forum, so hopefully someone here can shed some light.

Well that certainly helps in terms of making the image larger – only problem is with the low resolution there's a loss of clarity and pixelisation of the image; so not the same level of quality...
In System Preferences/Display, what resolution do you have your screen set to? Try changing that also to see if the two settings can work together. Also, since the vast majority of users (Mac or PC) don't have Retina Displays, isn't what you're seeing with Low Resolution checked in Photoshop closer to what most people will see? Remember that Apple's software, such as Safari, have been upgraded to take full advantage of the rMBP display; most other browsers, especially in Windows, haven't.
And if you want to tinker with the rMBP's resolution even further, check out "Eye-Friendly" in the App Store.

Installing photoshop cs2 onto macbook pro

I had the old version of photoshop cs2. I want to put it on my new macbook pro. I was given the link http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html". I have downloaded it but when I try to install the message says 'Installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance'.

Looks like you're looking at buying a full version of CS6 or subscribing to the cloud. :-/

Can't activate Photoshop on new MacBook Pro

Program Version: Photoshop Elements 8.
I just purchased a new MacBook Pro today to replace my three year old MacBook. I sold my old MacBook after I backed it up onto an external hard disk via Time Machine. I have used migration assistant to import everything back onto my new Macintosh and Photoshop throws an error saying that I cannot activate Photoshop because the serial number has been activated more than once (It is also used on my iMac).
My old MacBook has been reformatted and is no longer with me so I cannot go back and deactivate that copy of Photoshop (I have eBay records and emails showing the selling and reformatting of my old Macintosh for proof). What should I do? Who do I talk to? I do not want to purchase another copy of Photoshop. I use Photoshop for graphics in Web Development in University so I need it back up and running!
Thank You.
~Benjamin Anderson

Yes, I realized that afterwards. To contact support for activation problems, go to the very bottom of the web page and click the Contact Adobe link and you'll see a place on the first tab for activation/deactivation. There are phone numbers in a drop down on the right side of the tab. Sorry, I can't link directly because I only get the US numbers here.

Using Photoshop CC on Macbook Pro retina

Hi, I am a web designer and I am trying to find a way forward in using Photoshop CC on my Macbook Pro (late 2013). I have found posts that say you can open photoshop CS6 in "Low Resolution" however I cannot find the same option in Photoshop CC. Zooming my design comps by 200% surely is not the answer.
Thanks for any advice anyone can give.
- Michael

Exactly! Thank you dxjoel.
I'm having the same problem... I've been combing the web for a solution and nothing in site. I'm on MacBookPro Retina 15" running CS6 13.0.6.
Why can't Adobe PS render at same size as every other program? As a designer, 'lo-res mode' is not an option.
I'm attaching a screenshot of he SAME 480x480 IMAGE in photoshop, chrome and safari.
Can you imagine, as a web designer, how it's hard to work like this? There is no longer the 1:1 ratio that I get from CS6 on my iMac or PC.
Here's a screenshot of the SAME IMAGE on CS6 (at 200%) and Chrome (at 100%)... Pretty close!, but upon close examination, there's pixelation in CS6 side that's not there in the actual image. So, not comfortable with that workflow. I have relied on Photoshop as a pixel-perfect product for ~20yrs... now I can't use it on this machine.
I mean, even when I go to Help > Update ... the PS program's dialogue text is pixelated! Something is very 'off' here. Is this issue fixed in the CC version?
Need some answers, or it's time to look for new options.
Thanks!
David

Spacebar not moving marquee selection on photoshop cs6 on macbook pro. Have not found any workable answers on adobe forums.

On my MACbook pro retina display, OS X, I'm having a problem when running PHOTOSHOP CS6 extended where the spacebar doesn't move the selection of the marquee tool. I've deleted the preferences file and also reset tool(all) but to no avail. I've also searched every photoshop forum and searched on the web for solutions to this issue. No help found! Very frustrating. Is there a solution to this issue? If so, I certainly would appreciate knowing what it is.
Thank you,
frustrated PS user

I don't know what to say. I see the same behavior on both my Mac and Windows editions of Photoshop.
I select the Marquee Tool, draw out my Marquee. If I need to move it, clicking and dragging inside the marquee using my Trackpad ddoes the trick.
If I want to resize the Marquee, Ctrl or left-clicking and choosing "Transform" allows me to resize it.
The tool above the Marquee is the Move Tool, but I don't see to need it for that.
I see the same behavior down to CS6. I certainly would like to know Spacebar does not work like that for me.

Move tool in Photoshop CS5 on MacBook Pro

I am trying to move one photo into another in Photoshop CS5. Instead of being able to to drag one tab overtop of the other to put one photo in a layer over another, the tab I am trying to drag snaps back into place. This is really frustrating. I have restarted Photoshop, restarted my Mac, closed all my other apps and even deleted actions I have installed to no avail. I have searched for other suggested solutions. Someone suggested making sure 'show transform controls' was checked, but it did not make a difference in my case. I am using a brand new MacBook Pro.

You could just abandon tabbed view if you are non accustomed to it yet.
Your phrasing
the tab I am trying to drag snaps back into place.
sound like you might be trying to drag a tab instead of a Layer onto another file.
