I’m running Snow Leopard on both my MacBook and MacBook Pro and I have a warning for you guys…. some of my apps are not working right since the update.
- LightRoom is very un-stable it crashes all the time with my catalogs…
- Dreamweaver CS3 is crashing due to Snow Leopard.
- LaCie – LightScribe labeler does not work after the upgrade, it prints “black” CDs. This is the only labeler that I liked…
I ran the utility to “reorganize” the catalog but its still very unstable… this sucks since I rely on these applications heavily. I didnt see any gain from the upgrade.
*** I’ve been looking at reports of the web about Snow Leopard crashing Lightroom and other apps. If you’re a photographer and need these apps DONT upgrade to Snow Leopard!!!. Apple does it again, something is working great and an update that brings “no new features” changes the OS so much that kills apps you really need.
**** At this point I’m running a backup of my main system and will reinstall OSX 10.5 and try to restore from the backup.
***** Formated drive and installed Snow Leopard from scratch and its will FAILS, Lightroom works fine on my XP stations…. same catalogs. Note to self dont buy a Mac again
****** Fixed partially by re-installing OSX Leopard and formatting drive. YOU CANT RESTORE from Time Machine or it will back the bugs. Right-now I can run LightRoom other Adobe products. Other mentioned apps still dont work. After running Leopard I can tell you that there’s no reason to upgrade from 10.5 performance is the same even on 64b mode.
So it took two weeks to sort everything out and I had to manually install all my programs and find their serial numbers and registration keys, media, etc…
