What I already suspect from searching around Adobe’s support pages. Seems my MacBook Pro 15" 2.2 ghz (just over a year old) is not fully compatible with CS4. It the whole open GL thing. I have the NVIDEA 8600M card which is compatible, but the VRAM is only 128. Adobe states they’ve test supported the 256mb version, and it works. My 128mb version is not working.
Now, I’m fairly disappointed in how Adobe has applied these many new features around this limitation. I was really looking forward to the much improved zoom abilities. In particular, keeping in mind that LR and iPhoto, Bridge all do actually render perfectly, regardless of the current zoom sizing. CS4 seems to be leaving me in the old world of Photoshop, zooming correctly only at 25,50 and 100%. Not to mention all the other Open GL laced features. Kind of sucks, got to tell ya.
Does anyone know if there is a work around on this?
Needless to say, not many local computer shops are willing to upgrade the motherboard-located video card on my MBP. 🙁
