So I installed CS3 on my G5 and my macbook, and although its faster on the macbook it seems to be missing a few elements
first off in bridge i dont have the "photoshop, illustrator, and indesign commands in the tools pull down menu. also when i use the image processor to say apply an action and turn raw images to jpegs, the corrected image will not close, muckin' up my start-up disk. Also I found that Alien skin exposure works on the G5 but not on the macbook pro. Anyone having the same problems or am I the only idiot.

We're having some fun issues as well. We're running a G5 and a Mac Pro and some of our action sets have been rendered stupid.



You're not alone.

which machine are the actions bad on

I am also seeing an issue with CS3 on my MacBook Pro, actually 2 issues. When I open Bridge, my presents are no longer available via the right-mouse-click, I don't know where those went. The other issue is a bit more annoying. When processing a batch of images through image processor PShop would crash and it simply tells me that PShop unexpectedly crashed and if I want to send a report to Apple or reopen PShop. I have done both already. But then, I run the batch process from where it left off and "most of the time" it will complete the job without PShop crashing again, but a few times it has crashed for a second time.

If anyone is seeing this issue and has a resolution, please share.

so what the hell do we do now!!!

[whirring noise from eyepiece] We die...

I'm gonna use the Force

No way. Death Blossom for the win!

Your knowledge of 80s sci-fi movies is unparalleled, Bryce!

I went back to DPP after 2 years!!!

We haven't had to do anything that drastic, but I had no idea the transition from a PowerMac G5 to an Intel MacPro would be the ordeal that it has been.

I especially didn't like being strong-armed into getting CS3. I was really happy with CS2 but it was buggy and slow on the 'Pro with 5 GB of RAM !

And the Kubota people could care less if their entire action set works. To them most might as well be all.

Bleh.

The price of progress...

Maybe I am not a very heavy user of PShop, and I only have KK Action Pack 2 and his RAW presets, along with some actions of my own and as far as I can tell, they work fine. Granted, I haven't gone down the list running everyone of them, but all the ones I was using most of the time in CS2 work fine in CS3.

My $.02

ok so I reinstalled cs3 suite and photoshops image processor seems to be working right now
however in bridge i still dont have the "photoshop, illustrator, and indesign commands in the tools pull down menu
any takers on what the problem could be

Try the 4x6 Even borders with Keyline action.

Most of the others work.

PS CS3 is still a buggy bugger though. Bridge too.

and so now my image processor is not working again
should I reinstall cs3 everytime I need to batch or use the image processor
