I have been reading that adobe photoshop cs5 does not run well with Lion. However all these complaints were last year and I can't seem to find if the issues have been fixed. Does anyone know if it's fixed now?
thanks
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
It runs well.
Okay thank you. Did they come out with an update that fixes the problems? Cause One problem that I read that happened to one user was older projects wouldn't open and you couldn't print without it crashing.
For the most part, users have no issue with CS5 in Lion, but users do report the occasional issue. Adobe doesn't officially support CS5 for Lion. They recommend CS5.5 or CS6.
I just checked I have CS5.1 how do I get CS5.5??
Since Adobe only sells the current version (directly from them), you'd have to look for 5.5 from a place such as MacMall. But if you're going to spend the money on an upgrade, you may as well skip over 5.5 and go directly to CS6.
But just to note again, not everyone is having any issues with CS 5 in Lion. It can't hurt anything to install what you have and use it for a couple of weeks to see if it will work for you. Then you don't have any extra cost.
right but my issue is paying for lion. How much is cs 6 upgrade from cs5?
Oh! Since you were posting in the Lion forums, I assumed that's what you were already running as your normal OS. How much the upgrade costs depends on what you're upgrading from, and to.
For Photoshop CS6, the cost is $199 from either the regular Photoshop software, or the Extended version.
For Photoshop Extended CS6, the cost is $399 from either previous version.
My initial post was asking about upgrading to Lion. Sorry for the confusion. there is no way to just upgrade to 5.5?
There is no way to just upgrade to 5.5?
Actually, no. I looked into it again to make sure, and have to adjust my comments.
PS CS5.5 doesn't exist. In any CS5.5 suite, Photoshop is updated to 5.1, not 5.5. The only change to PS in those packages was to integrate it with the other titles so PS would work correctly with those apps which were updated to 5.5.
So if you do want to upgrade PS, your only option is CS6.
Adobe photoshop cs5 compatible?
