I have just purchased a Intel based MacBook Pro to replace my G4 which runs CS2.

 

Can anyone tell me if I want to upgrade to CS3 do I have to install C2 on the new machine first or can I do a clean install of CS3?

 

(I have CS2 on my old laptop and wouldn't want to unnecesarily install it on the new laptop)

 

Thanks

Malcolm you maybe about to do it without CS2 installed and may ask for a disk instead but hard to tell how it looks for CS2. maybe a quick e-mail to Adobe may help on this.

If you bought the upgrade, then the new install will look for a previous installed PS application.

I am left using Beta CS3 for editing my images but going back to CS2 for printing them....not a very nice workflow! The Adobe forum is full of complaints about this bug.

 

I found this on the Adobe forum - FAQ Known Issues

 

------------------------------------------------------------

#1442224: Win: Paper size is not remembered

------------------------------------------------------------

Workaround:

1) File > Print > check on scale to fit

2) Page setup > Select your paper size > Ok

3) Toggle the orientation buttons to force scale to fit to reflect the new paper size. After scale to fit reflects the proper size for your paper you can uncheck it at this point if needed.

4) Toggle centered checkbox on and off if you want the final output centered.

5) Print > Select preferences > set your page setup again to match the settings you selected in step 2 page setup

6) Print

I was hoping that the full version would have got rid of the coloured menu items, but no such luck. Anyone else seeing this? Maybe it's in a Pref somewhere. [Edit] It is now a Pref - I'd not noticed it before

 

Hi-

In PS in CS2: Choose Edit>Menus and Choose the Set of Menus you want to use. The colors change per set. Don't know about CS3.

Best,

Bill
