Retina display and CS6 InDesign pixelation

Hello,
Has there been no software update for InDesign CS6 that supports Retina display? I have recently upgraded my Macbook to a retina display and InDesign icons and text appears pixelated. It's really annoying! Is there any way to fix this? Is the fix purchase CC?
Thanks!

Well yes, it was possible by rewriting the program. That became CC. It's a valid business decision to make that kind of change a new version rather than give away thousands of hours of work for free. The development team needs to be paid, and the stockholders expect some return on their investment. Do you do any work that gets a periodic revision? Do you charge the client for that revision, or do you just give them the new versions year after year? Should Ford or Chevy retrofit your car with batteries and a new engine to be a hybrid vehicle for free?

Compatibility issues MacBook (Yosemite and Retina Display) and CS6?

I recently had to buy a new MacBook because of a mainboard defect of my old one. The old one had one of those fabulous anti-glare-displays with high resolution.
Now, the just sell these retina displays, which I detest.
I tried to work with Photoshop and InDesign. It is almost impossible to do so, because everything looks blurred. I have no idea how to fix it. Neither does Apple Support.
I´d hate if I had to switch to Creative Cloud because it is way to pricey for a part-time user like me.
So I´d be very, very happy if someone would happen to know a way out of misery for this.
Thanks in advance!

There is nothing to fix. In CS6 only PS and AI support Retina and you do that by installing the respective updates.

HiDPI and retina display support FAQ

Macbook Pro Retina Display & Adobe programs are pixelated

Hi. I just purchased a new Macbook Pro Retina Display and have installed CS 5.5 Design Standards to it. When I open the programs (any program: inDesign, Photoshop, etc), the image is pixelated and in low resolution. When I export what I'm working on it looks crisp and great but the software itself is pixelated. Are there any upgrades / updates for CS 5.5 that will fix this problem? Or will there be in the future? I cannot afford to get CS 6 quite yet and am wondering if I should return my Mac and downgrade to get rid of the retina display?? Thanks.

To get Retina support, you'll have to upgrade to CS6 or join the Adobe Creative Cloud.

Retina support arrive in Photoshop CS6 (13.0.1 and Cloud 13.1). It will not be added to CS5.5

Retina display and CC

I am hoping someone can confirm that Apple's new (ish) Retina Display MacBook Pro's will work fine with Creative Cloud apps, particularly InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, probably Acrobat too. I tried CS 6 apps in the Apple store on a Retina Display and it was like going back to pre ATM days. Also, if it does work what other 'side effects' are there? Eg are the images/text so small that you need to zoom in/out all the time. I noticed in the Apple store that most CS6 apps took a while to launch!
I intend to get a new Mac but am nervous about this Retina Display thing and wonder if I should go with an iMac. Just to confirm, I have Adobe CC but am just referring to CS6 as a reference. Many thanks.

I am Windows, but I do have a saved link that may give you more information

I plan to buy a MacBook Pro with retina display and I already own and use Photoshop CS 5 on my PC?

I plan to buy and use a MacBook Pro with Retina display and I already own and use the PS CS 5 on my PC window-based. How can I obtain a copy of CS 5 for my MacBook Pro?
Message was edited by: CHARNCHAN. That is without having to buy another copy for the Mac!

Not sure why you'd want CS5 for your new Mac with Retina display.
Retina support was first added to Photoshop in CS6 version 13.0.3
http://blogs.adobe.com/jkost/2013/01/retina-display-support-and-photoshop-cs6.html
So, assuming you own standalone Photoshop CS5 (and you're running at least Windows 7 on your PC) then your best option - for optimal display on your Mac - might be to subscribe to the Photoshop Photography Program for $9.99/month
https://creative.adobe.com/plans/offer/photoshop+lightroom?sdid=KIHZP
Then you'll get Photoshop CC + Lightroom 5 + extras and you can run them both on your Mac and Windows (2 installs permitted regardless of operating system) for the same $9.99 monthly fee.
If you don't want to subscribe then your other option would be to buy a separate CS6 license for Mac (paying full price).

MBP Retina Display, Cluster of Dead Pixels

I have a MacBook Pro with a Retina display and when watching a movie I noticed a couple dead pixels when the screen was dark. I googled and found a screen tester that changes the screen color and while doing the test and I found the problem to be MUCH worst. I have quite a large cluster of pixels that look to be dying. Unfortunately at the time I could not spend the extra $350 on Apple Care this notebook was expensive enough.
My question is what can I do at this point? My warranty is up and per the Apple website I can no longer purchase Apple Care because the warranty is up. I did notice that A LOT of people are having the exact same issue I am but the ones that reply are those that have Apple Care and end up getting a new display.
Has anyone who does not have Apple Care had this issue and have taken it to Apple??? What was the result being such a large problem did they offer to fix it or do anything to resolve the problem??? Is there a recall on this problem???

Where do you live? In Europe for instance a reseller cannot get away with a 1 year warranty.

As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.

Do you think this product is possible?

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Did you download and install the Windows Support software? If you did, did you use the Boot Camp Control icon to set up the trackpad how you want it?

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/com.apple.quicktimeplayer.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.
