Adobe Photoshop Cs3 Os X Compatibility Update At Some

Expect most software to require an update at some point so that you can get the most out of Lion.

In this article Ive collected various reports Ive run into around the web.

And Macworld has published an article about various kinds of incompatibilities you might run into with Lion, including the end of support for PowerPC applications which I talk about at the end of this article.

For Lightroom, the Adobe page above states that Lightroom 2.7 and later are verified to work on Lion.

On his Twitter feed (see tweet 1 and tweet 2 ), dhowe (Director of Photoshop Engineering David Howe) explained that in Lion, full screen mode is like putting a document in its own Space.

In the full screen mode that Photoshop has used for years, you can press the Mac standard Command keyboard shortcut to switch between open documents, but in Lion full screen mode, you cant.

I tried this out in a few of Apples own apps such as Safari, and its true.

I did find that in apps that support Lion full screen mode, you can switch between documents if you use the Controlarrow key shortcut which is also used to switch Spaces; in other words, Lion seems to lose the traditional distinction between switching Spaces and documents.

For some this might be confusing, others may see this as simpler.

Also, I cant find an Apple keyboard shortcut for Lion full screen mode, while Photoshop provides a full-screen keyboard shortcut you can customize.

You can customize the shortcut using the Mac OS X Keyboard system preference, but because its system-wide, some apps may use a conflicting shortcut.).

Similarly, in Safari full screen mode, browser windows only get to live on one monitor, even if you try to drag them to another (it snaps back).

Apple Preview and QuickTime Player at least let me maintain palettes on my second monitor while in full screen mode, but documents still only get to appear on one monitor.

Even Macworld has similar complaints about Lion full screen mode.

This is not true; it was based on a test with a late beta version of OS X.

In the actual shipping version of Lion, Flash hardware acceleration works fine.

Thats also where I learned that Nikon software support for the new Mac system will be as poor as it always has been in the past, especially if you own a Nikon film scanner.

I run my Nikon CoolScan with Vuescan, which is always kept current for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux.

Some people are not happy that an expensive paid upgrade will be required to keep using some X-Rite hardware like my Eye-One with LionIm thinking about what I want to do there.

It came out in March and theres a free updater if you own DiskWarrior 4.0 or later.

Older versions of Office, particularly those based on PowerPC code, may not run.

Some people are always surprised by this, but the fact is, a lot of companies only want to spend their limited resources testing with the final shipping version.

The Flash misunderstanding above is one example of how having a prerelease copy didnt accurately represent the final version.
