Will Macbook Air be sufficient to run Photoshop through Creative Cloud or do I need Macbook Pro? Thank you!

Hi there...
I plan on buying a Macbook. I really want the Macbook Air but people at Apple tell me I need the Macbook Pro to run Ps properly. I plan on renting Ps monthly through Adobe Creative Cloud so Im not sure if this is the same and needs the same space as buying it and installing.
Any advice is appreciated! Thanks so much!

The top end MacBook Pro 15" (17" high res/anti-glare for full 1080 HD screen) for mobile video needs with some restrictions and hinderances, you will need the Build to Order 7,200 RPM drive for sure as you need space and speed.
You can have 8GB of RAM from Apple or place 16GB in yourself for a lot less than Apple charges for 8GB. However you need to be handy with tiny screws, or have a local specialist do the 16GB for you.
Your probally better off with a MacPro than a MacBook Pro.
The MacPro is more powerful, and easier to get inside and do things, lasts longer, more ports, more drives, more storage for video, fast external RAID 5 setups etc.
So if you can get into a MacPro, that would be a better option for video.

Hi,
You can try to download creative cloud Desktop.

Once it is downloaded try to sign in and then try to download the applications.

HT5678 I get an error message when trying to actualise my MacBook Air. It is running OSX 10.8.3

I get an error message when trying to actualise my MacBook Air. It is running OSX 10.8.3. Exactly the same thing happens on my iMac24 !!

I'm having a similar problem. Using software update, iTunes 8.2 begins to download. It gets to about 41 megabytes and then times out. I get various error messages including that I'm not connected to the internet, and the directory didn't have the right permissions, etc.
I don't really use iTunes that much, but I use my iPhone ALL the time and would like to upgrade my iPhone software. Unfortunately, I have to have iTunes 8.2 to do that.
Is anyone from Apple listening?? There seem to be multiple posts about this problem. This is a very un-Mac-like problem.
Thanks

If you have tried every relevant suggestion from How to Troubleshoot iSight but your camera is still not recognized anywhere in your System Profiler's USB Device Tree, you likely have a hardware problem.
Properly applying the Combo version of the latest update for your Mac OS can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service on your MacBook Air.

I can not get iTunes to open on my macbook air and I'm running 10.84 it is saying there is a newer version to download

I can not get iTunes to open on my macbook air and I'm running 10.84 it is saying there is a newer version to download or quit itunes so it dose not fully open

The file that I'm have issues with in itunes is the file called iTunes Libary.itl.
So just to get itunes to open I had to delete that file and then sync all of my music back into itunesday, is there anyway so I do not have to keep doing that?

I am currently using the original macbook air and it is running 10.5.8 since it does not have anywhere to insert a disc how do I update it to anything that is more recent than that

Keep in mind you can also use the optical drive of another computer to upgrade OS X. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2129 has information on how to do that. This works on a Windows PC as well as a Mac.

Hi Wolfram,
There is no easy way to take an ideas file directly into Photoshop. You can import ideas projects into Illustrator CC though, that might be a better process for you? Support for Ideas projects are built into Illustrator CC.

My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection.

My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi. It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection. One question is how to delete some of the networks that I don't use. Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
Thanks.

Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
It shouldn't but sometimes deleting the list of networks actually does solve the problem you are describing. Have you turned WiFi off and then back on on the computer?

Hello, I own a macbook air and I deleted the iPhoto app by mistake, I cant re download it now, do you have any answer for me how to do it?

That's an App Store problem not an iPhoto one. That forum is here

but perhaps you just need to try again later, as the message says.

Hello, I am having a macbook air early 2008 and it is having a hard drive failure i need to replace the hard drive is it possible ? the hard drive number is HS082HB

Hello, I am having a macbook air early 2008 and it is having a hard drive failure i need to replace the hard drive is it possible ? the hard drive number is HS082HB could you please help !!

You can replace it with a solid state drive, see the one OWC sells here. The video on how to install it is here.
iFixit.com has used hard drives available here.
If it were me, I'd go with a solid state drive, as the prices have come down recently and the performance improvement is noticeable.

Just registered to Creative cloud CC and I need a system, who is running one now like champ?

Hello, there
I just registered to Creative Cloud CC and I need a system, who is running one right now that runs like champ?
I got many problems before with older versions and never get it to run good.
what really is a system that I should buy whether is a brand build it or one that I need to put togehter, I don't care.
I need a system that it should be able to run, edit and out put with no problems, in Premiere and After Effects.
is there anyone out there that can share his system information that is running good?
I'll really appreciate it.
have a wonderful day
Freddy

I agree with Peru Bob, call Eric at ADK, they are the absolute best source for an satisfactory editing machine tailored to your specific requirements with great follow-up support.
Otherwise we have to have a better idea of what media you will be using and what your workflow and output would be before anyone can answer your request.
There is a world of difference between handling Standard Definition DV material and RAW 4k media. "cc_merchant" referred you to Harm's data on our web site. Especially look at the "Tweakers Page" and "What kind of PC to use?" page.
There are very few off-the-shelf computers that work well without some small additions. For instance, you rarely find one that has two hard drives as suggested for satisfactory editing, the correct amount of memory and the best GPU for your application.
