Photoshop: "Open in 32-bit mode" not working on OS X/CS5
i have done all of the following and still it open in 64 bit mode. what to do? i need 32bit mode.
Select the Adobe Photoshop CS5 application file, installed by default in the Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder.
Choose File > Get Info, and select Open in 32 Bit Mode. (Deselect this option to run Photoshop CS5 in 64-bit mode)
Is this a Mac? THere may not be a 32 bit version.

"Open in 32-bit mode" not available
Two iMacs, (2.66GHz & 1.83GHz), both running 10.6.2. The GET INFO window for SAFARI on the older iMac does not show the checkbox with "Open in 32-bit mode" beside it - the newer iMac does. Other noticeable difference is "Open using Rosetta" is 'active' (available {but not selected]) on the older iMac (Rosetta is installed), whereas it is 'greyed out' on the newer machine (where "Open in 32-bit mode" is available).
It 'appears' as if, on the miscreant iMac, that Safari IS running in the 32 bit mode whereas iPassword 2 is working fine in Safari - that version of 1Password isn't suppose to work in the 64 bit mode. If this is the case, how do I get SAFARI back to the 64 bit mode.
ThanksHI Jim,
Open your Activity Monitor application. (Applications/Utiities) and select My Processes from the pop up menu.
You can view which apps run in 32 or 64-bit mode under Kind on the right.
If you don't run Safari in 32 bit mode, Safari is likely to crash and freeze. So your iPassword 3rd party app should be ok.

HT201432 Open in 32-bit mode not in "Get Info"
I don't see the option to "Open in 32-bit mode" in my "Get Info" window. How do I get that checkbox to appear?
Looks like that particular pref. pane was written for PowerPC machines - you'd have to be running Snow Leopard or earlier for it to work at all
You may want to switch to something that is still supported, like Onyx

My Open 'New Document' function is not working properly on Illustrator CS5
When I open a 'New Document' a message pops up saying 'Print.ai' is not working, I wanted to open a custom 'New Document Profile' not print. The custom option is grayed out and I cannot select it. What do I do?
If you can create a new document by any means, then set up the document the way you want the preset to be, and save the file here:
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS5/en_US/New Document Profiles
You might need to delete/replace the faulty Print.ai file. -
Lightroom 5.6 would not open. I only get a flash picture then I get an error message. See below message: [Window Title] Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit [Main Instruction] Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit does not work more [Content] there was a problem making the program no longer work properly. The program is closed and there is a notification if a solution is available.
I may have just solved my own problem. Right after posting this I googled bezel lightroom and found this: Flickr: Discussing The word 'bezel' appears in the taskbar. in Adobe Lightroom
I changed the setting in the view menu and now everything appears to be working fine. I cannot explain why it stopped working before because I hadn't made any previous changes to the view options.
Still am curious about the memory usage, though. -
Is there a way to open photoshop cs6 in 32-bit mode on a windows 7 64-bit system.
I was wondering if there is a way to open photoshop cs6 in 32-bit mode on a windows 7 64-bit system, because photoshop won't recognize the pen pressure on my graphics tablet (yiynova msp19u) I read that some users got it to work in 32-bit mode on macs, and all my other programs like zBrush, art rage, sketch book pro recognize the pen pressure on the tablet.
well I am going to assume that the application marked photoshop is the 32-bit application, since the other on is marked 64-bit and I don't see one 32-bit. in any case it still not recognizing pen pressure and i have the newest drivers. The only thing I can think of now is that wacom drivers are interfering with it some how since they don't get along, although I was pretty sure i got rid of all wacom software.
Sigh, it's starting to look like I have to format my computer -
i received an error message "iTunes requires 64-bit mode" says to go into my iTunes application and 'uncheck' the 'open in 32-bit mode' checkbox - i went into the application and the box was not checked anyway so why am i getting this prompt? Never happened before. yesterday did the sofware update for maverick.
Thank you for your response, Chris. But I'm afraid I have to disagree. There are native 64 bit versions of iTunes available for OSX and Windows.
In a 64 Bit Windows environment native 64 Bit Applications install the DLL's in a directory called "Program Files" and a directory called "Program Files (x86)" (32 Bit applications only use the ladder).
iTunes 9 is consistent with this behavior - and it identified itself to the system as a 64 bit application (meaning it's process appears without a "*32" tag on it). -
TS3934 Logic does not open in 32 bit mode
Macbook 10.8.5 running Logic Pro 9.18
OK ... I have tried the following.
Logic Pro highlight / get info and ticking "open in 32 bit mode" it shows as ticked
deleting user audio unit caches
running mac in 32 bit kernel mode
reinstalling logic Pro
NOTHING ..... Logic opens in 64 bit ..... I have loads of plugins that don't run in 64 bit ... i'm waiting until everybody is singing from the same hymnbook.
HELP PLEASE !!!!!!!You are most likely opening some other copy of Logic that you (still) have somewhere else. There is no known issue with Logic Pro 9 not opening in 32 bit mode on any compatible Mac OS X system. As Jazz already said.

Open in 32-bit mode finder flag doesn't always work on all applications
When I set "open in 32-bit mode" flag in Finder (get info window) for Quartz Composer it is respected on normal application launching but if I restart (with updates, ex.) the computer it launches it in "normal" 64-bit mode. (Normal application launching would be clicking the icon)
This doesn't happen with other applications (at least with one other; non Apple) which have the same flag setted, on the same circunstance.
This non Apple application that works as expected already had the flag setted on installation (it didn't require manual setting, I mean).
Thanks,This is a known problem with Netflix and Microsoft Silverlight right now. You can try the following:
See if there is an update for Microsoft Silverlight.
After checking for updates, Go to Finder, then Applications. Right click on Firefox, then click "Get Info". Then check the box that says "open in 32-bit mode". Restart your PC, and test again. Does it work now? -
CS5 "open in 32 bit mode" has disappeared.
I have Photoshop CS5 running on a Mac Pro OSX10.6 Snow Leopard.
Some plugins do not run in 64 bit so it has been my routine to switch to 32 bit for apps like Noiseware.
This is done by right clicking the CS5 application icon in the Finder and selecting the "open in 32 bit mode" checkbox, then relaunching Photoshop.
This worked fine until today when the "open in 32 bit mode" checkbox disappeared!
Adobe Support were unable to crack it and it's been escalated......
In the meantime, has anyone else come across this weirdness and /or is able to offer a sloution?You’re likely to get a lot more help in the Photoshop forum. This forum is for suite specific issues.

Why can I not import pictures any more?
Lightroom says "Your Lightroom 5 64-bit does not work correctly"
Technical informations:
PC with Windows 7 64-bit, Lightroom 5.7.1 64-bit installed.
What I have done:
I downloaded the newest LR 5.71 and installed it again - mode repair; without success
I checked my PC with Norton 360: full scanning and optimizing registry
I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
Trouble 1:
Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.
Trouble 2:
I live in Switzerland and my language ist German. I dit not find a place where I can present my problem in German, e.g. a phone number oder email-address oder german-chat. My English is to week for a discussion for computer problems and do understand it.
Help:
I would very appreciate if anybody can help me, either to trouble 1 or to trouble 2. Thanks.Sehen Sie diesen Beitrag:

ITunes will only open in 64 Bit Mode from Dock since Restore
I have only ONE big problem since doing a restore from my Time Machine backup-up for for Late 2009 iMac 27". For some reason I can only get iTunes to open in 64 bit mode if I put an icon on the dock???? It opens in 32 bit mode which is selected in the Get Info - Command+I if I open it from the Finder (which is my preference due to my many 32 bit Visualizers....) but if I put a shorcut icon on the dock REGARDLESS of what my settinigs are in the finder it Always opens in 64 bit mode and tells me my visualizers can not be loaded... Which I am well aware of! What I don't understand is why this has just happened since reformating and restoring from a time machine backup???? Everything else... at this point appears to be working just fine. BUT if I open iTunes from the dock... 64 bit mode no questions asked.... opened from Applications in the finder and it grabs my 32 bit mode Prefs? This is really irritating. I have dumped caches, re-downloaded and installed iTunes. Not sure what else to do??? Why is this ONLY happeningn if I put an iTunes link on the Dock? Any help would be VERY MUCH appreciated. Thanks.

Here's the latest. I did the old standby of creating another Admin Account and the behaviour does not occur when logged into that account. So it appears that the restore somehow screwed up settings on my current account. I have indeed checked and there is no other copy of iTunes on my computer except for the DLoaded version of iTunes10.6 where I downloaded and tried to the re-install thing.
Of course still haven't heard back from Apple but I really wasn't expecting too this early. I guess that my next step is to transfer to the user/shared folder and change permissions on each and every folder/preference and file to the new Admin account... until I find out which setting is causing the problem. To so this is a pain in 'arse' would be an understatement.
Also found out that Preferences has the same behavior as iTunes. 64 bit ALWAYS unless checked during that specific login and NOT started from the dock.... Strange though... both seem to hold the 32 bit (for the session) if run from 'recent', the Apple Menu, or the Finder??? As Alice would say "Curiouser and Curiouser"
My suggestion to ANYONE converting to LION (after this episode) is to back up and do a CLEAN install. Obviously something from Leopard and Snow Leopard doesn't really like Lion that much.
I have been using computers since 1981 and Apples since OS 8 ... even had few dificulties with the OS X beta, but this one has me befuddled and somewhat irritated. I have thousands of dollars worth of software that I really don't want to have to re-install, re-register, but that may be the only viable option at this point. -
As stated in the header,
iCloud
Mail, Contacts, and Calenders
Software Update
all want to open in 32 bit mode. Then when System Preferences quits and relaunches IN 32 bit mode, I get a dialog box saying "You can't open (pick one) preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac." Moreover, Security and Privacy does the same thing only without the song and dance about quitting and reopening.
Whaaaaat???!!! I've never owned anything BUT an Intel Mac.
The "open in 32 bit mode" is not, and has never been checked in "Get Info"
I tried going to ~Library/Preferences and tossing all com.apple.system preferences files and rebooting. No joy.
It actually looks like some joker has included a bunch of PPC preference panes in my copy of MountainLion, except some of them are new to this OS.
My hardware is a mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro with4 gb of RAM, and a 500 gb hard drive, in three seperate partitions, running three Mac operating systems, one at a time. I have SnowLeopard in a small partition because I still have a few things that don't run in Lion/ML. Lion is still my main use machine in the largest partition, and when ML came out, I redistributed most of the unused space into a 3rd partition into which I did a clean install of ML in it's own partition so I could work through the growing pains without compromising my main computer. I'm glad I did it that way, but I DO want to get ML working properly, and I can't do that if I can't authorize third party software. Gatekeeper is currently in the way, and I can't get it to move.I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes. There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only. They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel. Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine. Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well. The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box. All using the same hardware. but one at a time. I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to. (Which I don't) I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact. How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine? -
Why does right clinking on link and selecting open in new tab does not work?
Why does right clinking on link and selecting open in new tab does not work?
It opens up a blank page. The only way to make the link work is to click on the navigation bar in the new tab and press enter to reload the link.Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. <br />
2. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''
