Officially, Adobe recommends PhotoShop Elements 2018 for High Sierra. Roaringapps neither shows works fine or doesn't work for High Sierra.
With the announcement of the Photoshop CS6 Public Beta, I thought I’d take some time to discuss our plans around operating system support in Photoshop CS6 – and beyond. I believe you may have less users on XP than Windows 7 using Lightroom but i’m a working photographers and will have to continue using Lightroom 3 until I finally need to upgrade. What I don’t like is the way I had to find out on my own after downloading the new beta version that it wasn’t compatible to XP.
Nothing likes a heads up. If there is another software that will do the job I believe I will switch. I’ll continue to use Photoshop as I make a living using it and teaching others how to use it. Hi Bob,Sorry you missed that XP wasn’t supported in Lightroom 4. It’s clearly stated that it’s not supported in the System Requirements – and we even worked with Amazon to display an alert warning in the product pricing area on Amazon.com product pages to help inform XP users. Tom on the Lightroom side, and myself on the Photoshop side, are trying to be as open and clear about OS support early and often so our users can make informed buying decision. Our intention was to make this as clear as possible – and that’s the intention of this blog post in particular.
You guys have so many platform versions to keep, that’s cool.b. New interface like a copy version of light-roomc. Windows XP will be expired on 2014.4.8, last version SP3 with incredibly bug fixed since 2008.4.21.Basically windows XP and mac 32-bit (or 10.6 version older) are both on the same situations, only one different thing is bugs eating windows, not hardware support.Adobe have to make things simple or easy way to play, not thinking ‘what kind of customers we should say goodbye?’It’s not fair. I am a graphic design student who has CS4. CS5 came out just a few months after purchasing CS4 so it wasn’t financially reasonable to purchase the new version. I’ve been anxiously waiting for CS6. Over the summer I purchased a new computer.
It’s a laptop PC with 600 GB, Intel(R) Core(Tm) i7-2630QM CUP@ 2.00 GHz, 64-bit operating system. It’s an HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC. I’ve been using a laptop for years and that is my preferred mode of using a computer because of the flexibility of working anywhere.

I just received a call from a none-design friend who said I will not be able to use CS6 on my laptop or any laptop because it wasn’t made to do so. Is this true?
Am I doomed to have CS4 for the life-time of my computer – and I tend to keep my computers for a long time. Please tell me this isn’t so. Hello,I am familiar with the general requirements of the Adobe CS6 suite but am curious to know if particular CS6 programs, specifically Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign will work with my 2008 MacBook Pro (15″ 2.2Ghz, 2Gb RAM, Intel Core 2 Duo), which has a NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor with 128 MB of GDDR3 SDRAM.
It’s the VRAM specification I’m most curious about. I understand that the VRAM of my laptop doesn’t meet the general system requirement of CS6 in general, but I am curious to know if my 128mb of VRAM would be sufficient for most image, design, and layout work. I’m not interested in using the most taxing features of CS such as 3D effects, video, etc., and pre-CS4 CS’s have worked fine.Boiled down, my question would be: will the CS6 applications mentioned above for the most part work on my laptop, which meets all general CS6 specifications aside from VRAM?Also I would be curious to know if upgrading my laptop’s RAM to 4GB could possibly offset the lower VRAM capacity, in relation to the general CS6 sys. Req.Insight on this appreciated.I would guess there are others out there with a similar question.

Hi, i downloaded the photoshop CS6 beta and i am wondering about the graphics processor settings. Everything was fine before i downloaded the Windows 8 consumer preview but after it, OpenGl wasn’t running. I have been searching all throughout the internet and found negative results. Do you know if there is an alternative or if there will be an update during the win8 consumer preview period for opengl?(if i knew things would stop working the way they did before, i would have never dl’d win8 consumer preview). You talk of OS support:I’m getting tired of the old old deprecated SAVE FILE prompt that’s STILL using the old XP system.
We pay you thousands of $$ and you keep the old Windows XP save system? No excuses Adobe. I want the Windows 7 save prompt. Don’t give me the “we still need to support XP” junk.
That’s an excuse to not put an OS check (if Windows XP use new save prompt).Yes you have a base of XP users (I feel sorry for them), that doesn’t mean I STILL should have to use the old save prompt. The one thing I’ve been wanting to see changed since CS3 still stares me boldly in the face as a giant “Screw You” from Adobe.
You add all of this fancy stuff (much of which I don’t use), but the only thing I’ve personally asked for is an updated save prompt (that’s been around since Vista). I don’t care if you create your own, anything but the ancient XP non-customizable system. Those of us who are STILL XP users have kept this system because it is very crash proof, like old NT. After nightmare experiences with Vista and 7, I am sure many of us who were not born yesterday are holding on to the tried and true until microsoft can prove to us that their new OS won’t impair our businesses.
If you work in an office situation where you have outside computer support, then you don’t care about this. For those of us responsible for our own maintenance, this is a huge issue. So thanks, Adobe. You got this one right. Hi Jeff, I just upgraded my older version of Photoshop from CS4 to CS6. The installation runs ok, but when I want to use image adjustments tool eg. Curves, I choose the option ‘auto’ or ‘option’ at the right side of curves menu, the program encounters error which say “Photoshop CS6 has encounter a problem and need to shut down.” I’m using a HP Pavilion tx2000 notebook powered by a dual-core AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-66 processor with a clockspeed of 2.3GHz.
Combined with an integrated Nvidia GeForce Go 6150 graphics chipset, upgrated 3GB of RAM and running on Window Vista Home Premium. Each time I do image adjustment or editing, if choose ‘auto’ or ‘option’ this message hits again and the Photoshop CS6 to close without my artwork being saved. You should be able to tell after getting properties on My Computer and seeing what the OS version is there in the general tab I believe.Microsoft’s webpage suggests:Method 1: View System Properties in Control PanelClick Start, and then click Run.Type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.Click the General tab. The operating system is displayed as follows:For a 64-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Version appears under System.For a 32-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional Version appears under System.Note is a placeholder for a year.Method 2: View System Information windowClick Start, and then click Run.Type winmsd.exe, and then click OK.When System Summary is selected in the navigation pane, locate Processor under Item in the details pane. Note the value.If the value that corresponds to Processor starts with x86, the computer is running a 32-bit version of Windows.If the value that corresponds to Processor starts with ia64 or AMD64, the computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows.

You’ll want to find out what video chipset you have on your macbook, and then look it up through google to see what technologies it supports.Apple menu About this Mac More Info — Graphics: xxx This will tell you what video card gpu is in the system. From there you can search for more technical specifications on the card.You can also look at this document to get more info on Photoshop and GPUs, including information on which video cards in Apple machines support some of the technologies such as OpenCL.The GPU SnifferTo help guard against Photoshop crashes related to bad GPU hardware or drivers, Photoshop employs a small program called the GPU Sniffer. Every time Photoshop launches, Photoshop launches the sniffer. The sniffer runs rudimentary tests of the GPU and reports the results to Photoshop. If the sniffer crashes or reports a failure status to Photoshop, Photoshop doesn’t use the GPU. Hi Jeff, PHotoshop performs some tests when it launches to test the video card’s ability to work with PS, if it discovers an issue with the card or driver, it will disable the GPU features in PHotshop, or at least turn them to basic.First step would be to update your video card driver and see if that resolves the issue with the warning message.If it indeed is a card that doesn’t play nicely with Photoshop, see this list of supported video cards that have been tested to work well with Photoshop CS6.
