Will PE6 run on Snow Leopard 10.6.3?

Will Photoshop elements 6 run on Snow Leopard 10.6.3??? My current iMac has Leopard and PE6 ran fine but I will be updating it to snow leopard and possibly mountain lion at a later date.

Officially the answer is NO. See this article:
<http://forums.adobe.com/message/4527508#4527508?promoid=KBGZT>
Unofficially it might be possible but I don't use anything other than Windows so I have to stick with the official answer.
Good luck.

Re: New Garage Band - I have Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard, and Garage Band 11. If I download/install the new GB, will I lose GB 11? And will it run on Snow Leopard?

Re: New Garage Band - I have Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard, and Garage Band 11. If I download/install the new GB, will I lose GB 11? And will it run on Snow Leopard?

then had to find out (same as with this issue) that I presently have other software that will not run on Maverics.
You could create a clone of your drive with all your current software, so you could continue to work with your Snowleopard software by booting from the clone, and upgrade your main system to Mavericks, if your computer supports Mavericks. This way, you could have both, if the new features of Mavericks are interesting to you - e.g-, iCloud syncing of multiple Macs, new sharing features, and for GarageBand automatic drummers and arpeggiators.

Will cs3 run on Snow Leopard?

Will cs3 run on Snow Leopard?

I have a 3,1 - will this make a difference? also, the Genius in the Apple Store offered to upgrade me to Snow Leopard for free, until I mentioned I need to run CS3 - he then told me it wouldn't run - do I take the chance? do I really need Snow Leopard?

Automator (version 2.04) will not run in snow leopard. Upgrade how?

Hi all -
I upgraded to Snow Leopard and find it wonderful. The only trouble I have is using Automator. The version I have is 2.04 and when I launch it, it gives me the following message:
"You can't run this version of the application Automator with this version of Mac OS X. You have Automator 2.0.4." My visits to Apple download site has been unsuccessful.
I did download an "Automator Extension Pack" from the Apple site for Leopard and that runs but it does not give me the function I need.
I want to stop and start an application on a schedule. Should be a simple task. Maybe someone can help me with that problem instead? I assume Automator is part of the solution.
Thanks for your attention. I am running 10.6.2 OS X.

The new version of Automator (2.1) should have been installed with the Snow Leopard update. It's normal location is in the /Applications folder, so if you had moved the earlier version to some other location or installed onto a different partition, make sure you are running the right copy.

My app will no longer run under Snow Leopard, runs fine under Lion.

My app will no longer run under Snow Leopard, even though it was originally written for Snow Leopard. It runs fine on my Dev machine under Lion. But when I test it on my Snow Leopard Mac Mini the app starts but the window does not appear. Going to file, new window does nothing. My depolyment target is set to 10.6. Is there something I did to make my app lose Snow Leopard compatiblty?

Does your application use features only available in Lion? Are you getting any console logs?

Will iPhoto 9.3 run on Snow Leopard 10.6.8?

Will iPhoto 9.3 run on Snow Leopard 10.6.8? The App store on one of my 2 computers (both with iPhoto v.9.2.3 and both running 10.6.8) says an iPhoto update (9.3) is available, but when I check at the App store it says the min. requirement is 10.7.4. On my MacBook Pro offering the App store update, I bought iPhoto 11 originally from the App store. On my iMac, which is newer, iPhoto 11 (which is version 9) came with the computer and I have always got iPhoto updates through Software Update, but Software Update is not offering me an iPhoto update on that computer. So I am thinking that the App store notice on the MacBook Pro may not be accurate.

No -- it requires the latest version of Lion - 10.7.4 as the App store tells you

My iMac will not boot through Snow Leopard but will boot through Windows OS

My 2010 iMac will not boot in Snow Leopard, only Windows. Have tried reinstalling Snow leopard a few times and works only for a couple of minutes before freezing and doesnt reboot. Windows works perfect. Snow leopard just doesnt want to boot up past the Apple Logo. It was working fine one day and the next day it froze up and was able to reboot back into Snow Leopard but kept freezing. Now it doesnt load at all into Mac OS.

Possible scenarios:
1: The 10.6.3 SL retail disk is bad, it happens.
2: Your not using the 10.6.3 SL retail disk but one from another machine which doesn't have the drivers for that machine.
3: Your optical drive is funky or some other hardware issues.
4: Your trying to install 10.6 onto a PowerPC based Mac, no can do.
5: Your not using a wired keyboard for boot key commands, have some other hardware conflicts.
Possible solutions.
1: Copy the SL 10.6.3 disk using Disk Utility to another DVD, the error checking may resolve the original disk's issue.

2: Make a SL bootable USB
http://www.maciverse.com/install-os-x-snow-leopard-from-usb-flash-drive.html
3: Call Apple for a new 10.6.3 disk (and make copies for backup before Apple discontinues selling it)
If your upgrading to 10.6 to get to 10.6.8 to upgrade to 10.7, be warned of this:
1: Your 10.5 software will not work in 10.7, no more Rosetta or PPC based code.
2: Your hardware will not qualify if it's a 32 bit Intel Core Duo, also you may experience slowdowns in performance over 10.6 (10.6 is the fastest OS X version for Intel Macs) in older Intel hardware (I suggest Early 2011 Mac's and later only for Lion)
3: Mountain Lion 10.8 is reportingly coming out this summer and will not run on a lot of older Intel based Mac's because of heftier graphics requirements.
4: 10.6 has the widest range of current avaialble software and drivers for third party hardware.
My advice, stick with 10.6.8 and stay there, buy a new Mountain Lion machine after this summer. Skip Lion completely.

MacPro 3.1 will not upgrade to Snow Leopard

Hi. I have a MacPro 3.1 with 2 x 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Xenon Processors, 6 GB of Ram. The computer is a standard Apple Unit.
I cannot get it to install Snow Leopard. Info elsewhere on this site suggests it should run under Snow Leopard. I have put the system back to Factory state with a clean install of 10.5. It still will not accept the Snow Leopard.
I suspect the problem may be me trying to use installer disks recently supplied with my new MacBook Pro 13", 2.53 GHz. Can anyone confirm this issue. If I buy another copy of Snow Leopard, that is not apparently Machine specific, will it install?

Yes, the disks are your problem. All you need to erase and install Snow on you MP is the $29.00 Snow upgrade disk. You do not need to ever had have Leopard installed.

Update your 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 using the :

Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
Then make sure you meet the requirements for Mt Lion:

Now that being said, the 2GB RAM requirement will not leave you with a smoothly running system. Max out your RAM that your system can handle (more than 8 GB would be up to you) . Older Applications may no longer supported. No Power PC apps are supported past !0.6.8. Many other Apps will need to be updated or upgraded.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard.

Good Morning,
I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard. I shut it off took out the battery, reinstalled the battery. Then I put in the Snow Leopard CD and booted up to disk utility and The Snow Leopard partion would not show up?? I do see the microsoft partion.
I also rebooted holding down the shift key and still no Snow Leopard
Could you please tell me what I can do, what keys do I press on restart any advice to get Snow leopard back.
thank you.

Have you restarted holding down the Opt key? That procedure should give you a gray screen with all of the partitions that exist. Then select the SL partition for boot. Also go to System Preferences and Startup Disk, unlock the lock and select the SL partition as the default boot partition, then relock.

Pages 4.2 update doesn't run with Snow Leopard

I keep both Montain Lion and Snow Leopard on the same computer, different partitions. After upgrading Pages this week, it no longer runs under Snow Leopard. The icon changes and a launch message says I can't use this version with Snow Leopard. It looks like this is true of all the iWorks apps. This is the first time I recall the iWorks suite not being backwards compatible.
My advice is to keep a backup copy or older iWorks releases if you need to run Snow Leopard. The App store only has the Mountain Lion version so I can't just download the SnowLeopard compatible version.

The same exact thing happened to me. I have a thread on this same issue but no one has responded. Did you find a way around this?

Lightroom 5 doesn't run on Snow Leopard

I'm sure this is well know amongst readers here but I had no idea until after I purchased and tried to install. Now waiting for a refund. How did I miss this? I've used Lightroom for over 4 years. I read all the reviews of the beta and now the release of Lightroom 5. Somehow I failed to notice that the program won't run on Snow Leopard on the Mac. Amazing! I haven't wanted to upgrade my Mac OS for multiple reasons. Now I'm on a dead end road with Lightroom. I'll have to figure that out. My oversight but I wish that Adobe and the reviewers had made this fact more obvious. Maybe they did. I'm disappointed.

There’s usually a System Requirements section on the LR purchase pages.
Trying out the beta and trying out LR in Trial mode are the ways to avoid such issues.

Tried to run a CD I had run with Snow Leopard. Now (with Lion) getting a message that PowerPC applications are no longer supported.. How do I overcome this? Thanks

Well Lion does not support power PC applications. They only way is to upgrade the application, or if your have SL disks, reinstall SL.

FYI: New version of Disk Warrior seems to hang when run with Snow Leopard

FYI: It seems that the new version of Disk Warrior hangs when run in Snow Leopard

I have been using DW 4.2 on 10.5.8 and the speed-up was the first thing I noted, too, so it isn't just SL.
Now if it would only 'come up for air' and respond to input to move window (so I can put it where I can see it if needed) I'd like that.
There is a 23 page review of Snow Leopard on Ars. On page 22:
People sometimes ask what, exactly, is wrong with HFS+.
Aside from its obvious lack of the features just listed, HFS+ is limited in many ways by its dated design, which is based on HFS, *a twenty-five year-old file system.*
To give just one example, the centrally located Catalog File, which must be updated for each change to the file system's structure, is a frequent and inevitable source of contention. Modern file systems usually spread their metadata around, both for robustness (multiple copies are often kept in separate locations on the disk) and to allow for better concurrency.
Practically speaking, think about those times when you run Disk Utility on an HFS+ volume and it finds (and hopefully repairs) a bunch of errors. *That's bad, okay?* +*That's something that should not happen*+ with a modern, thoroughly checksummed, always-consistent-on-disk file system unless there are hardware problems (and a ZFS storage pool can actually deal with that as well). And yet it happens all the time with HFS+ disks in Mac OS X when various bits of metadata to get corrupted or become out of date.
Apple gets by year after year, tacking new features onto HFS+ with duct tape and a prayer, but at a certain point there simply has to be a successor—whether it's ZFS, a home-grown Apple file system, or something else entirely. My fingers are crossed for Mac OS X 10.7.
If Disk Utility was reliable in mapping out weak sectors (it is not) and report/log errors. But it doesn't and I trust my data to other file systems when possible. We've come to expect and depend on 3rd party utilities and that Apple First Aid doesn't fix every possible error.
Scanning one drive for errors can take a long time. Maybe it needs to be done, maybe in the background. With 2TB drives it gets worse. Spending hours to scan for errors??? I've set TechTool Pro to concurrently scan anywhere from one to a dozen volumes at once.
An ounce of prevention, as they say, is worth a pound of cure.
