I am currently writing a book that will initially be sold as a PDF but may later go on the i Book store, however I don't have a Retina display myself and what is the best practice for making screenshots from a normal display look acceptably sharp on a Retina display?
I have Photoshop along with the iOS simulator that shows how the iPad or iPhone will look if they can be used in some way but I mainly need to get menu items and dialogue boxes from various applications in OS X and Windows looking good on Retina screens. I really don't want to pay out for a Retina display purely for this task that would only take a few hours of work at most.
I'm using a Macbook Pro with retina display and having a hard time really understanding how it translates to a normal 72dpi screen, so I hooked up a second computer, this is what photoshop looks like on it.
I recently installed adobe elements CS5.1 onto my Macbook Pro retina display running Mountain Lion. All of the Adobe programs (Photoshop, Illustrator ect) are blurry and pixelated when I open them. solution to this problem? I especially notice it with the fonts dropdown.
How do you view Photoshop CS6 13.0.4 in low resolution on a macbook pro retina display? I have tried opening CS6 in applications > get info> under general there is no option to open in low resolution as there is in Lightroom.
I want to make some graphics that will be viewed on the web. I understand that lower resolution displays will display graphics larger than higher resolution displays. My question is with regards to how the graphics will be displayed on a Retina display that has 326 pixels per inch. My understanding has always been that you design graphics based on 72ppi for web.
1. If I wanted to create graphics knowing that all of my users would have Retina displays, would I setup my .PSD files at 326ppi? 2. Will graphics and websites designed at 72ppi appear really small on a Retina display?.
With all the hoop-la over Photoshop being able to work with a 1:1 native pixel operation at the Apple WWDC, I'm wondering if it will be available as a simple 'upgrade' to the existing Photoshop CS6 package or if there will be a separate app available for a premium upgrade price. I'm told that it's spectacular - running Photoshop in native Retina display mode - it might even convince me to my a MBP-Retina.
But I'm confused about the 'upgrade' path - I know that the capabilities have been announced but have read nothing about the upgrade - will it cost anything?
I am thinking of buying a Macbook Pro with Retina Display.
I am wondering if Photoshop Elements 11 will work OK with this as I have heard there is a problem. how to make them compatible. I really don't need anything more complicated than elements for what I do so don't want to spend out on one of the CS programmes.
I've got a problem with every application I downloaded from the creative cloud. The Program windows are pixelated. I can see that for example on the "Open... - window" or just at the general layout.
I don't have this Problem with my copy of Lightroom (which I bought on a CD). Is there maybe a Problem with the retina display?
Photoshop is not entirely Retina ready for me. The cursors are extremely blurry as well as the gradient presets, and many certain elements are NOT optimized for the Retina display. Supposedly, this update featured over 2,500+ redesigned cursors to take advantage of the Retina display and all I see is FUZZY & BLURRY OUTLINING. I'm running 13.0.3.
I have been working on a set of images from a recent vacation and created a web gallery to display them. I am using a Retina MacBook Pro and I noticed that when loaded in the browser (Safari), the gallery images look slightly blurry - similar to "non-retina" prepared images. I also created a slideshow in the slideshow module and they look the same.
if this is due to the fact that Lightroom is not rendering the preview images to be compatible with retina (HiDPI) support? I have invested in such an expensive piece of hardware and I'm getting such blurry looking images.
I installed CS6 Design Standard (perpetual license) on my Retina 15 inch Macbook Pro (OS X 10.8.2) today.
Ran a couple of updates after the installation but no retina update for AI or PS among them.After a quick google search I read I had to manually update the Application Manager. Done that. Finds update for AI & PS. AI is now v. 16.0.3 and retina, PS is now v. 13.0.3 but NOT retina.Afterwards I downloaded the 13.0.3 patch but this didn't change anything.I uninstalled PS (+ removed preferences) with the Adobe Uninstaller. Reinstalled it and ran al updates, Application Manager finds 13.0.3 update again, runs the update and it is still not retina. It blows my mind how many steps, google searches, manual updates, patches it takes to update AI & PS "properly" and apparently it still does not work for PS.
I'm new to animation, but have recently taught myself Edge Animate.
How can I make sure everything works with devices that have Retina Displays?Do I set up two animations or is there some code I need to add to show the retina image when the device warrants? Should the retina images be 144ppi and the others be 72ppi?
I've seen a number of ways to dynamically load the retina version of an image (with @2x appended to the filename), but none of them seem to work with Edge animations. I'm guessing this is because these solutions work within CSS and not within embedded javascript. Any method to dynamically load retina images based on the device?
Is it possible to disable Photoshop CS6's "On-Canvas Info Display," the "small information pop-ups [that] are displayed near the cursor when using a variety of tools"? (circled in red below). I know it's a cool thing but it sometimes gets in the way. I'm running PS CS6 extended on 64 Bit Windows 7.
I'm working on a flyer on a 8x11 canvas, but I want all of the elements I'm working to be transferred to a NTSC video film format. I understand how to a open a NTSC (Video Film Canvas), but I do not understand how to convert a canvas that I'm working to that.
I just got CS5.1 at my job. This must be a preference, but when I adjust the Canvas size, it will constrain the image, rather than cropping the canvas. The Anchor in the Canvas Size menu appears outlined (highlighted?) which indicates that this is something in preferences that I can adjust.
I can't seem to get to the CS4 Photoshop downloads online. My new Mac Pro Retina has no CD so I cant re install from that.Tried going through my Adobe ID still eludes me. workshop on the weekend.
I have a new Retina Macbook Pro and I want to install my version of CS5 on it, but since I don't have a disc drive, I've run into a few problems.
What I was able to do was copy the installation files onto a flash drive and start the installation that way, however, halfway through, the installation prompts me to insert a second disc, which I have, but I can't insert because...no disc drive. The second disc contains the Content (PDFs, Documentation, Fonts, etc.) so there's no direct way to prompt that installation. I tried putting this on a second flash drive and inserting it when "second disc" needs to be inserted, but this doesn't work. Do I need an external disc drive, or is there another way?
I have buyed a Macbook Pro Retina, on Mountain Lion 10.8.2, and when i've tried to open a .psd with photoshop i can't do anything, the interface just froze.I've tried the latest version, by downloading it right from Adobe's web site, but the issues were still there. The most awkward part is, the previous version work nice, CS4 and CS5 are working great so far, only the latest doesn't work, i've took screenshot and video..The probleme appear when i try to create a document or open an odl one, i juste can't use photoshop CS6 on MacbookPro Retina.t
