this is BS from Adobe, If it was not use mac users there would be no dam adobe and them not spending time to test cs3 in 10.6 is rubbish, no 64 bit thats cheap of them
 
While I don't like it, the solution seems pretty simple...

I am not going to upgrade to Snow Leopard.

I am not going to upgrade to CS4.

I guess I'll just have to get by with CS3 running on Leopard. I'll let Apple and Adobe sort out whether or not this was a good move for either/both of them.

I'm sure a 64-bit CS5 be out soon. ;)
 
WARNING! Flash CS 3 Shifting Some Graphics and Text in Snow Leopard

My business partner has not upgraded to Snow Leopard yet and we noticed some graphic elements and text alignment issues when I made a few edits to a Flash file. On her computer the Flash file graphics and text look fine (she is running Flash CS3 on Mac 10.5). On my computer using 10.6 the Flash CS 3 shifted some elements down about 4 pixels. Text elements in buttons and elements in a graphic.

Take a close look at your files when opening them in Flash CS3.
 
Nobody in their right mind should be buying cs4 now for the mac.
It is too old and it didn't even offer 64 bit support for osx.

Not sure what advance preview you got, but CS4 was only released Oct 2008, less than one year ago. Adobe has stated that their desired upgrade cycle for new CS versions is 18-24 months, and they have been on that beginning with the release of CS2.

The people who should be buying CS4 right now are the people who specifically need it to do their job in a way that CS3 can't do. I upgraded 3 weeks ago when I got a new Mac. My older mac would not run it well. Get it if you need it. I did and I am happier for it.
 
Does CS4 work any better with Snow Leopard?

Just installed Snow Leopard. Photoshop CS4 seems fine but there's a strange display problem in Dreamweaver CS4, where any text with a url disappears from Design view but remains in the Code view. When you check it on a browser it displays correctly. So currently in Dreamweaver CS4 and Mac OS 10.6.1, what you see certainly AIN'T what you get.

So beware if you think that upgrading to CS4 may solve some of the problems with Snow Panther. Apple and Adobe, please catch up soon!
 
Wait wait wait. Apple users complaining Adobe is trying to make money? What is this? I applaud Adobe. This is what capitalism is all about. Adobe has possibly managed to create higher profit margins than Apple, that is something to be proud of.
capitalism? pft, well i for one would rather have good products than something whose goal is nothing more than to profit or turn them consistently with products that arent even worth their value if they dont working accordingly. or even tested properly or at all in this case.

It's hilarious to me atleast that the few machines ive been running program tests on to make sure everything runs smoothly before i switch my main machines over have had trouble running cs3 and cs4....but cs2 seems to work flawlessly on every Leopard and Snow Leopard machine...aswell as the macromedia suite.

If apple were to ever snatch adobe, id hope theyd reconsider a better price point for it, upgrades arent too expensive but getting a single license its a bit too much.
but knowing apple theyd just totally wipe and restructure the applications entirely...good or bad who knows
