Another Rosetta Compatibility List
Following up on yesterday's post about a
Macintouch Rosetta compatibility list, I found that
MacFixIt has a much more comprehensive list.
This hopefully will help assuage the lamentations of readers such as EatingPie, who found the Macintouch ...
Rosetta compatibility list
To
supplement creativebits' list of what you
cannot run on a Mactel, the Mac Internets now has a Rosetta Compatibility list courtesy of Macintouch. Does anyone else find it completely laughable that the company with the most incompatible programs ...
Upcoming 10.4.8 to bring "significant" Rosetta enhancements
We have already seen one report covering what's on the menu in an upcoming 10.4.8 update, and this new one should be great news for all the science nerds and Adobe suite users out there who are stuck running PowerPC apps on Intel Macs: AppleInsider ...
Photoshop seems to run fine in Rosetta
I'm not
doing any high-end Photoshopping here, and I'm also only running Adobe Photoshop CS, rather than the latest and
greatest, but so far, Photoshop is running fine in Rosetta. It's like running it on a G4. No big hiccups. I'm running
it off of an ...
MacTech benchmarks Office 2004 on Rosetta
MacTech has
published what I am fairly certain are the comprehensive Office 2004 on Rosetta test
results for Intel Macs. Honestly, there is so much literature and testing in this article that I simply skimmed
most of it and skipped ahead to the ...
Someone finally tests Adobe apps on Rosetta vs. PPC
Bare Feats has been busy with their Mac OS X vs XP tests earlier today and
now this. From what I can tell, they are probably the first site to post some benchmarks of non-Intel native Adobe apps, specifically Photoshop CS2
and After Effects 7.0. ...
Mac 201: Preparing your Mac for Snow Leopard
With Snow Leopard, the next version of Mac OS X, expected rumored to ship out any week day now, it's worth looking at one thing that can make upgrading to 10.6 a lot easier (at least on an Intel Mac-as most PowerPC Mac users should know by now, ...
Is World of Warcraft now Intel Mac Compatible?
Our own C.K. Sample III posted
this morning on WOW Insider hinting at the fact that World of Warcraft as
of today may be Intel Mac compatible and no longer require Rosetta.
When he logged in this morning, WOW launched an updater to version ...
Adium X 0.88 an Universal application
You were
tired of running Adium X in Rosetta, weren't you? Now you can run it in native mode thanks to the 0.88 release. This release also includes a few bug fixes
(including a reconnect from sleep issue that was plaguing some) and an Australian ...
TUAW Tip: How to tell if an application is a Universal Binary
You want to figure out if an application is Universal, but you're not sure how to do it? There is a very simple easy way to find out. Simply select the icon of the application you're curious about and either right click and select 'Get Info' or hit ...
What you can't run on a Mactel
Ivan at
creativebits has composed a list of application types that just won't work with Rosetta. From his list:
The
Classic environment (and hence, all pre-OS X apps)
Screensavers written for PPC
Code that
insert preferences into the ...
iMac Core Duo quirks
No, this isn't a pic of our rig of the day. It's my rig. I've had my iMac Core Duo for a few weeks now, so I thought
I'd provide some more impressions for those of you still on the PowerPC side of the processor divide. Monitor spanning
works nicely, ...
X11 on Intel Macs
Despite my initial inability to find a proper X11 installer the
other day, it is included on the disk with my new iMac (although nowhere that I could find on Apple's website,
which I think is a mistake on Apple's part). So, I installed X11 and OOo ...
Snow Leopard: Another upgrader's experience
I got to the Walt Whitman Mall on Long Island yesterday and they were doing land-office business, according to the blue (not orange) shirt I was speaking with. He told me that he lost count, but they must have moved over 150 copies of Snow Leopard ...
OS X vs XP on a MacBook Pro
The good
folks at Bare Feats love them some benchmarking, so I am surprised it took them
so long to compare the performance of Windows XP versus OS X on a
MacBook Pro. They took a look at how applications that are available on both OSs (and are ...
