Some shortcuts are a total mess in CS 5.1 on Lion

The Title pretty much says it all.. The Dynamic Brush Resize and the HUD colour picker to mention but two... When the resize shortcul works (CTRL + OPT + Click-drag) it only works for a minute or two and after that moves the art board all round the monitor... very intermittent and buggy! I had hoped that the 10.7.2 update would fix the problem but no chance. Likewise it seems I have to hold down CTRL + OPT + CMD to bring up the HUD...
On Snow Leopard I run CS 5 nd it runs perfectly... only need hold down CMD to call up the HUD
but that said, these hard-wired shortcuts are a joke in their own right... why no option for users to configure the shortcuts?
Complete mess...I have to exclusively paint on Snow Leopard (my home machine) or use painter on Lion where there are no such issues...
Lion has been out a while now... surprised this issues has not been addresses if indeed it has even been raised at all before now!
- tested in both 32 bit and 64bit mode...
In it's current state on Lion, Photoshop is pretty much uselesss to me as a painting tool - please fix!
PS - I have reset preferences, re-installin photoshop etc.... It's obviously a not playing nice issue between OS Version and PS...

Looks as though I have zero other option. Found last night that after the latest re-install that my save for web and devices opption had gone KIA so had ro re-install yet again... still the same... seems I have to have about 20 move shortcuts whether or not I want them...one will do thanks...spacebar!
Please Adobe/Apple get a life and put the handbags away or you will alienat a large chunk of your loyal customer base forever... Makes no difference if you slap apple with a photoshopped handbag or they you with a black one with a shiny white apple on it... ******** resolves nothing! You might keep the shareholders happy... but hey!..... read the news....... there is a revolution against the corporation going on!
Keep the Customers happy first and last!

thanks for your instant reply.
i have currently bought a new laptop (windows 8) and my iphone is not being recognized by itunes.
because i have no backup on my previous laptop, i downloaded touchcopy but even touch copy is not recognizing my iphone.

After installing ios 5.1 on my iphone 4s, some apps are being closed automatically after a few seconds. I've tried a restart and a total reset. nothing seems to work. Any solutions?

The problem Apps may need to be updated. Or maybe your iTunes account needs to just update itself on your iPhone. To do this, install a free App from the App Store on your iPhone. Tap App Store app on iPhone, select and install a free App. When that is done try the problem Apps to see if they work OK again.

Some keyboard shortcuts are not working

I have found a few keyboard shortcuts that don't work, no matter what you set the shortcut to. I only found two, and they are "Show Desktop", and "Show Launchpad". I have set them to many different combinations, none of which seem to work. every once in a while, it will work, but after my computer goes to sleep, it doesn't work again. It only works some of the times after I restart or shutdown. When I open the shortcut tab under the keyboard settings menu, it always defaults to the screenshots tab, and I don't know if this is a bug or not.

there may be a conflict with some system-level shortcuts, for instance the shortcuts in the System Prefs for Dashboard and Expose default to F9, F10, F11, which will supersede the default FCP shortcuts for insert, overwrite, and replace edits.
Check your keyboard layouts in FCP - if the shortcuts are assigned, then check those two System Prefs panes (keyboard, Dashboard & Expose) for system-level shortcuts that might be conflicting.

Keyboard shortcuts are not showing, but still exist!?

I've tried to look for this issue, but I can't seem to find anyone else experiencing this... it's a strange one. Here is the situation:
First, I'm speaking of iOS 5.0.1, and the keyboard shortcuts located under General->Keyboard->Shortcuts.
Upon upgrading to iOS 5, I was pretty stoked about this massive time-saver that was previously only possible through (already forgot the $5 app's name!) and was further restricted in the fact that the only apps it could be used in were those specifically coded to use its API. Anyway, thankful it's now native!
Was... thankful. When they were all showing up in the listing as they are supposed to. Something happened... maybe the upgrade from 5.0->5.0.1, I can't pinpoint a specific time when they all decided to turn to ghosts! Every last one of them, looks like they were erased... the list is totally bare. That's misleading, though, because the shortcuts that I had created still work fine! They just fail to show up in the list. Odd... There have been a couple of rare occassions that I cannot find a way to reproduce where I could just put something in the Search box, (any letter, or a space) and they would all show up again as if they never left!
Until you try and start editing or messing with any of them... any edits will crash the Settings app upon hitting Save. Additionally, you obviously cannot add a shortcut term that already exists then save it "overwriting" an old one as a trick... it just says it already exists and you can't use that shortcut term.
I did take some screenshots of when I got it to actually show up (and still have no idea what I did to cause them to briefly appear as search results -- I can try the same thing now and I get no results found. Anyone have any idea what in the world could be going on, or how I can fix this? It's a real pain, considering any new ones I add also disappear... so many of them that I created months ago, I can't recall what the exact shorthand was, and I'm out of
My only thought for a hopefully "sure fix" would be to do a RESET on keyboard settings. I'd like to avoid it if at all possible, as that's going to erase not only the mass of shortcuts that already exist, but will also reset my custom words/anything it has "learned" from my input.
As far as troubleshooting to see if anything made a difference-- I have added extra keyboards, removed all keyboards, changed the default keyboard to another language, you name it as far as adding or subtracting (or even changing software/hardware keyboard layouts out) -- all to no avail.
Here are the few screenshots I was able to get during the "fluke" time that I "sort of" got them to reappear:
Did a search on "s"--
I believe this was a freshly added one? Or it alone, showed up:
This one I simply searched on a single (space):
At no other point have I been able to recreate this temporary resurrection since then, but as proof that they still are in effect:
I'd really like to go in and change some of them, for instance, I defined "nm" as "not much" and instead, I find myself using that regularly as shorthand for nevermind (which I originally defined as n/m or nvm)... but any action on them... editing, deleting, etc... results in the Settings crash, as mentioned, immediately upon hitting Save... *boop* gone.
Do any of you brilliant minds have any suggestions to try that don't involve resetting the keyboard settings (wiping it out and redoing the OS is not an option for something that is really mostly an annoyance and inconvenience. Too much time, effort and trouble for me to have to do that, unfortunately... Has anyone seen or heard of this happening to anyone else? In closing, I can't tie the disappearance to any specific event, other than "possibly the 5.0.1 upgrade" (and that's just a guess).
What's not a guess was that my iPhone 4 was running super fast and battery worked great at 5.0! Was very happy! 5.0.1 destroyed this thing. It's now slow, constantly crashing, and my batttery (which unlike 4S owners) was working great... now I am having to charge it 3-4 times per day! That's not even with heavy usage! That's another story and has its own (very long and irate) thread. My thought: should've just stayed with 5.0; what possessed me to apply a patch for an issue that I wasn't even experiencing!
Oh, one last probably important bit of info -- firmware is clean, it's not JB or anything. Upgrade to 5.0 went smooth as can be, and I was very pleased with 5.0 -- now I'm considering downgrading back to 5.0 (thankfully saved my SHSH's) though I don't know the implications of what FURTHER havoc that could cause, so I'm patiently waiting for 5.1 to not fix everyone's issues! I never said I was an optimist, but I do consider myself a realist! *nods*
Crap. After posting this, I was able to find these other few users experiencing the same thing. Didn't mean to dupe post but at least here's the cross reference which I'll post there too:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16707743#16707743

I lost all my keyboard shortcuts on my iPhone 5s after upgrading to iOS 8. They still showed up on my iPad Air (iOS 8) and iMac (10.9.5). There were, however, massive sync problems, sometimes they would only flow from one device to all the others, sometimes from one device to only one of the other two, sometimes not at all.
I deleted all my shortcuts and started from scratch, deleting “~/Library/Application Support/Ubiquity”, ~/Library/Dictionaries” and “~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~TextInput” from the iMac and KeyboardDomain from my iOS devices.
Rebooted everything a dozen times.
Toggled Documents & Data Sync off and on a dozen times too in all kinds of combination with rebooting and deleting the aforementioned files.
Everything always starts working and syncing fine for a very short while, but sooner or later one of my devices stops receiving new shortcuts as I re-add them.
I reboot that device and it catches up. I enter new shortcuts, and that device doesn’t get any new shortcuts. This time, a reboot doesn’t fix anything.
After using my devices for a while, I notice shortcuts are entirely gone from both the iPhone and iPad, but not from the iMac.
I even upgraded my iPhone 5s to a 6, and right off the bat it had issues with keyboard shortcut sync. I also setup my iPad as new, and same thing: right off the bat, sync issues with keyboard shortcuts.

OS Lion is a total mess

Why do Apple think its clever to upgrade their OS only to leave us all in a mess. I see pages and pages of complaints on these discussion boards.
I upgraded only because of my email account didn't work without it. Now I have so many issues, and please don't tell me its not because of Lion.
1- Wireless works only sporadically, I can never get on line via Safari, Email, or refresh my Podcasts, If I have my iPad (without Lion upgrade) next to me that works fine, but my MacPro takes 10 minutes of rebooting and trying to establish my wireless network, it's a total mess
2 - Time Machine keeps failing, I have to reboot my ex HD over and over again.
3 - Syncing my iPhone and iPad especailly photos to iPhoto constantly fails.
For a number of years I had everything working fine, Lion comes along, and now its like working with a computer in the early 90's, full of problems.
How can I remove Lion. I'll simply do without iCloud.

The issues you are experiencing ARE because of Lion - either its a corrupt install or its software conflict with something/s else on your system that is not compatible with Lion. This is evident by the fact that your system runs fine under Snow but not under Lion.
However, solutions are available if you are willing to work towards them.
Given the range of symptoms you reports, as I indicated above, you should try to reinstall Lion with a fresh download from the App Store because sometimes the original download is itself corrupted in some way (I learned this the hard way through personal experience).
If that doesn't solve your problems then you need to go the lengthier road of isolating the s/w conflicts. The first step in doing that is to remove everything from here:
 > System Preferences.. > Users & Groups | Login Items
then restart and test without firing up anything else.
If the problems persist, create a new user account (again in  > System Preferences...> Users & Groups), log in to it, and test. If the problems are seen in that account also, then restart the mac in Safe Mode and test again.
If after having done all this the problems remain, then post back and I or someone else will take you through the next steps.
It's not because of Lion.

In the last 36 hours my photos have jumbled within various albums. Random photos have attached at the end of an unrelated album, old photos have appeared again on Recently Added, some photos are missing but still on "collections". No date order

Within the last 36 hours my photo albums have turned into a real jumbled mess. Random photos have appeared at the bottom of my Recently Added album. In most cases it's a copy of a photo that was taken months or years ago so now it appears twice.. 200 random photos have appeared in an unrelated album. Some photos are missing completely. The date order is correct in some places and then it goes back and forth over the months and years. The "collections" appears to be okay. This morning when I went into the photo app About 50 photos that were permanently deleted 3 months ago reappeared on the Recently Added Album which I deleted again. if I delete these irreplaceable photos from the unwanted album it will delete the photo completely. Help please - this is so annoying and frustrating. I hate to think when I turn the iPad on tmoor row what else will have changed .

Quick Update:
I usually have my Mac laptop up with Messages running on it. As you know, it will receive the same messages you send/receive on your iPhone. I thought all my old photos would be there too, but they have all disappeared as well except for the last few.
Messages is supposed to archive all old photos to a directory called ~/Library/Messages/Attachments. On my mac, this was a 0 byte file that was created back in Jan 2014. As a result, none of the old photos got saved on my Messages app either. I looked at a Time Machine Backup and it has been the case since September (no earlier backups available). So, it's unclear how long this issue has been going on for my Messages app and how related it is to my iPhone problem.
In any case, if any of you use Messages, you may be able to recover your photos in that directory provided it didn't get trashed like mine did. I moved the file and created a new Attachments directory. Upon relaunch, Messages started properly storing new photos in there again.
Either there was a really terrible bug in the Apple software or something malicious has happened.
P.S. I'm running OS 10.9.5 Mavericks. There is a thread of people with this problem on Yosemite here:
No pictures are shown in Message om Mac
This seems like a pretty seriously terrible bug. I will be talking again to AppleCare on Wednesday and I hope they can escalate this.

Secret dragging tricks and keyboard shortcuts - are these published anywhere?

I have searched for some and stumbled upon others. But I have not seen any of these published or posted anywhere. If so, can you tell me? Either way, you may find some useful ones here. Enjoy! (I think most of these work in Lion. Any keyboard shortcuts you know for Time Machine would be most welcome.)
*** THE DOCK ***
Press ^F3 to move to the dock. Use the arrow keys to select an icon. You can also use autocomplete (type the first few letters of the icon's name). Then press Opt-arrow_key to move the *icon* among the other icons on the Dock. Thus you can change the order of the icons on the Dock using only the keyboard.
*** DRAGGING TRICKS ***
o SAVE-AS SHEET TRICK
Open an app's Save As sheet. Drag a folder or its proxy icon to anywhere in the Save As sheet except the sidebar and that updates the directory (folder) field with that folder. Drag a file or its proxy icon to the Save As sheet (anywhere except the sidebar) and that updates both the directory (folder) and file fields accordingly.
Why do I do this? I find it easier to use the actual Finder, or I may already have a Finder window in the right directory.
You can also click on a directory or file in the Save As sheet to populate the directory or file fields, respectively. Then edit the filename to a slightly different name.
o COPY A FOLDER TREE TO A TEXT DOCUMENT
Open a true text-only editor session using an app like TextWrangler (not TextEdit!). Drag a folder (or its proxy icon) from the Finder into the editor window. Viola`! The names of the folder and all its subfolders and files are pasted into the text buffer in a properly indented form.
o COPY A FILE TO A TEXT DOCUMENT
Drag a file from the Finder into a text-only editor like TextWrangler or similar (not TextEdit!) and the _contents_ of the file (not its icon) are inserted into the document.
o MAKE A NEW FILE THAT CONTAINS SELECTED TEXT
Select some text. Drag it to a folder. This creates a "textClipping" file which contains the selected text. Opens as a "Finder document".
o COPY A PHOTO FROM IPHOTO TO A FOLDER
Open iPhoto. Drag (to copy) a photo to a folder. Makes a jpeg file of the photo in that folder.
*** KEYBOARD TRICKS ***
o MENUS AND LISTS
Opt-U/D: Move highlight bar to top or bottom of most menus and lists. Does not work in Spotlight drop-down menu. Works in Snow Leopard Mac Mail (v 4.5, anyway) if you hold it down for a second: you get an error signal, but it works anyway.
PgUp/PgDn | Home/End: Moves highlight bar to top or bottom of menus. Moves only the view for lists.
Opt-Spacebar: Move highlight to the alphabetically first item in a menu (except in the Spotlight drop-down menu).
o SPOTLIGHT DROP-DOWN MENU
After selecting an item on the drop-down menu via the arrow keys:
Cmd-Return: Open enclosing folder.
o SPOTLIGHT WINDOW
If ^F7 is set to "all controls", press ^F7 four times if it's the first search in a particular Spotlight window; two, otherwise. This moves you to the list of results.
If ^F7 is set to "text boxes and lists only", just Tab.
o CALENDAR WIDGET
Home: go to the current year and month.
Up, down, left, right arrows: go one year back, one year forward, one month back, one month forward. Hold a L or R arrow down to autorepeat through the years. (You can't do _that_ with the mouse!) Also works with U and D for the months.
o SPELL CHECK
Cmd-Shift-; - Open spelling pane. But you knew that one. Press ^F6 to get to the pane. Tab around to everything except Define and Guess. With the focus on the replacements list, use the arrow keys to select a replacement word from the list. (Press the spacebar to run the control with the highlight perimiter and press Return to run the control with the solid highlighting.)
o MAIL
Cmd-I - Open Account Info window
o NAVIGATING HELP PANES
- Old-style help panes :
Open the menu pane in the usual way. The Highlight perimeter will be on the search window.
Tab: Move among the Search field, the page, and the controls on top. Add Shift to reverse.
When on the page:
Use the usual navigation keys -- Up, Down, Home, End, Page up, and Page Down, Spacebar, Shift-Spacebar -- to scroll through the page.
Opt-Tab: move among the links on the page or items in a "Help Topics" list. The highlight perimeter will be rectangular. Press Return or Enter to click the selected link or item. Add Shift to reverse direction.
Cmd-F: Open the Find bar. Move about with Tab. Move among the arrows with L or R arrow keys. To find a string: Type your search string in the Find field. Press Return or Enter. Press again to find the next occurrence, etc.
To go to the page from the Find bar: Shift-Tab to the left or right arrow. Then press Shift-Tab two more times.
To close the Find bar: Tab to Done and press the spacebar or just press Escape.
You can return to the app via ^F6, but the help pane stays open.
When the highlight perimeter is on one of the arrow controls, press Spacebar to click it. If the left arrow control is selected press the down arrow to see places going backward. If the right arrow control is selected press the Down arrow to see a list of places going forward. Either way, use the usual menu navigational shortcuts.
When the highlight perimeter is on the Home control, press the down arrow to get a menu of apps. (The mouse way for this is to click and hold and "drag" and release as above.) The usual menu navigational shortcuts are valid. Also, you can press the spacebar to go Home.
When the highlight perimeter is on the Gear button, press the spacebar or down arrow to get the drop-down menu. The usual menu navigational shortcuts are in effect.
(To do any of the above three with the mouse, click on the control and hold the mouse button down, then without releasing the mouse button, move the pointer to highlight the desired item on the menu and release the mouse button.)
- New-style help panes:
Open the menu pane in the usual way. The Highlight perimeter will be on the search window.
Tab to move around to most things. The table of contents becomes keyboard-active one Tab-press past the Search field, at which point use the L and R arrow keys to navigate the Contents panel, and the U and D arrow keys to move the down and up the page.
To be able to use PageUp and PageDn, Tab to the back/forward button, then press Shift-Opt-Tab.
Cmd-F: Opens the Find bar. Navigate with Tab and L/R arrow keys. When you are on this bar, press Shift-Tab repeatedly until the highlight perimeter moves out. Then press Shift-Tab once more to go back to the page, where the L and R arrow keys move you around the TOC sidebar and the U and D arrow keys scroll the page.
AFAIK, you can choose Get Started or Browse Help only with the mouse.
You can return to the app via ^F6, but the help pane stays open.

I guess you meant that unfortunately these don't have them.
(1) I meant that, unfortunately for your impressive work, there's nothing in it that hasn't already been documented elsewhere. The two items I mentioned contain your shortcuts, and many more besides.
I don't see any of them in either. I have Pogue's book and they're not there. In fact, I emailed these tricks to him and he was impressed with some of them. And of course there are more. I never claimed to have an exhaustive list. In fact, I doubt anyone has such a list.
(2) Mac OS X v10.6 has been out for, what is it, 3 years? If you think that there are any 'secret' shortcuts left, then you seriously underestimate the average Mac user. Some of that stuff is even older. For instance, the "Save-As Sheet Trick" dates back to Jaguar, or even before that. "Make a New File That Contains Selected Text" is older than Mac OS X itself!
Well, first of all there's no need to get hostile.
I don't underestimate the average Mac user. But I would venture to guess that most are heavily mouse oriented and would not even be interested in the keyboard tricks I posted. And I only said that I haven't seen them on any website, not that no one else in the world knows about them.
Additionally, there have been things missed by the smartest of people. Stereo vision was missed even by Issac Newton, one of the biggest geniuses to grace the planet! It was Wheatstone who first picked up on it. And it used to be thought that a cube flying by at relatvisitic speed would appear foreshortened in the direction of motion. In fact, as was noted decades after relativity was published, it in fact appears rotated. If super smart people could miss this, then perhaps those few who publish these tricks may not know about them.
Re the save-as trick and the new-file-contains-your-text tricks: fine, they're old, but so are many of the tricks that are posted on websites. So why some old ones but not others? How about cut and paste? I bet they're pretty old but that doesn't prevent people from posting them, as in your first reference!
(3) Also unfortunately, your listing mixes up shortcuts and 'tricks' of different categories. For instance, "Copy a File to a Text Document" is not secret, it is not a trick, and it is not relevant. What an app does with a file dropped onto an open document of its own does not depend on the system, but on the app and how it was programmed. TextEdit inserts a text file's path while TextWrangler inserts the text file's contents not because the former is not a text editor, but because that's how each was designed to work. And TextWrangler's behaviour is documented in the accompanying manual.
So one of my tricks is lame. I don't see that as that big a deal.
Bottom line: I don't see any of them in the docs you referenced.

Firefox has spontaneously decided not to show the task bar at the bottom of the screen, and some menu bars have been messed up. How can I fix this?

My Firefox has spontaneously (apparently) decided not to show the task bar at the bottom of the screen (the margin is there, but it is blank), and some menu bars have been messed up. Perhaps the most annoying aspect of these changes is the fact that I have to use alt-tab to move from a Firefox session to another session.
I can find no way to fix these problems. Can you help? Am I going to have to uninstall and re-install Firefox in order to get back to the default settings? If so, is there any way to preserve my bookmarks?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.

Latest update 3.3 only for lion users? total mess

apple did a major step to indicate that aperture is no app for "pro"users. If it should be that it should support not only the latest system version!
latest update 3.3 only for lion users? total mess.
I will look for another solution. Sad.

Hi,
I was wondering if somebody could give me some guidance please?
I bought an N73 in September after much research and a lot of deliberating, I decided to purchase one (via O2 in England) even though i had heard lots of unhappy people claiming the phone had ruined their life etc due to its software faults.
I haven't updated my phone yet since buying it mainly due to being put off by the number of NEW problems the updates can cause.
I dont have any major problems with my phone, its got a bit slower with time and the camera isnt very quick when uploading and sometimes switches off (but i think its to do with the slide mechanism on the back), anyway i would be grateful if you would give me your honest opinion as to whether i should upgrade to the latest firmware or not!
Many Thanks
Richie

Resolution
Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
Additional Information
This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

A TOTAL MESS: Duplicated contacts

Hi folks, I have iOS5 on my iPad and syncing on with my Snow Leopard Macs and Mobile Me.
THIS SYSTEM IS A TOTAL MESS. The first thing that happened with enabling mobile me/ cloud with my iPad is that it wiped out ALL My Contacts. I recovered them from a back up but now I'm getting all sorts of duplicate Contacts and I cannot tell which is what culprit. The whole poing of syncing is to keep everything the SAME. This CLoud thing is NOT ready for prime time. How do I prevent this mess from taking place???

I am simply trying to keep my contact lists synced between my desktop and laptop (Snow Leopard) and my iPad (iOS5). About a 6 montsh ago, Apple asked me to activate or turn on mobile me for sharing or something (and gave me the Cloud icon in Mobileme), and then when I installed iOS5 about a month ago, it wanted to make mobile me available, I think, on iCloud or something. Whatever the last step did, it first deleted all my contacts in Addressbook and then when I restored, it keeps duplicating them.
Snow Leopard and iCloud don't work together, your post is confusing enough that I really can't tell what you have done, but I know it is wrong.
Go to www.MobileMe.com and try to login, if you get told that you can't because your account moved to iCloud that is the first question answered, so if that is the case go on to www.iCloud.com and try to login there, if you can you should check that your contacts are there, post back.
PS iCloud came online on Jun 6 2011, so you could not have done this "6 months ago"

Some mirrors are gone

I tried some mirrors yesterday like
archlinux.puzzle.ch
ftp.uni-bayreuth.de
... which have no pkgs at all. uni-bayreuth seems to be fine now but puzzle.ch still not.
Seems server-syncing went wrong somehow ...

Then that's why I couldn't give gnash a go .... and it seems some packages are still missing, even from ftp.archlinux.org
$ sudo pacman -S gnash

Those apps aren't included in iOS on iPads

Some shortcuts are a total mess in CS 5.1 on Lion
