CS3 beta question

CS3 beta question

2007-02-05 by Steven Karafyllakis

Has anyone done a same computer-same drive installation of CS3 along 
with CS2, and if so, did it produce any issues, bugs, quirky behavior?

I'd like to get more familiar with CS3 but it'll never happen unless I 
install it on my main computer.

Thanks,

Steve Karafyllakis

hi Steve, 

I have CS, CS2 and CS3 running on the same drive, no problems, you can even run 2 and 3 at 
the same time... that is on Mac with tiger... can't speak for windows... it does automatically 
change your default to CS3 on installation, a bother but no problem as all earlier PS versions 
seem to open without problems.. was skeptical at first, but now will buy when it is released...  
has a lot of good tricks... check russell brown's tutorials

Steve, I've install CS 3 on my Mac and PC and I LIKE it. My only  
complaint to date is that it takes OVER. Any image you double click  
to open will open in CS 3! And with my PC I can't even force CS 2 to  
be the default application again! I've considered uninstalling it on  
my PC, a laptop for field use, but haven't yet.

I really like the new Camera Raw and Bridge on the Mac and find I can  
make many image adjustments there and not be troubled with editing in  
CS 3. I also find the program opens faster on both computers, but  
I've fast older computers ( dual 2.7 GHz G5 w/6.5 gigs of ram, 2  
internal and 2 external eSATA hard drives) (PC is dual 3.6 M4 Intel,  
dual 7200 rpm hard drives in RAID O, 2 gigs of Ram), dated but still  
fast enough.

Printing from my Mac to my Epson R2400 is very straight forward, no  
problems that I can document. When I print B&W I use QuadTone RIP on  
the Mac.

I've since removed Lightroom and Apples Aperture, in favor of CS 3.

Hope that helps, Alan

I did same computer - different drive (using an external 
drive).  There are some issues with CS3, of course, but CS2 keeps 
working fine.  CS3 is my tool of choice for most work now, even with 
its issues.

Steve,
I am having two minor issues.  Running XP with both CS2, CS3, & 
Lightroom installed in the same partition.

#1 Every time I open CS3 I get during loading an error stating "The 
gradient file is bad or corrupt".  Loading continues and everything 
seems to work correctly including gradients.  I do not get this error 
when loading CS2.

#2 I also am unable to get files to open in CS2 by clicking on them.  
Defaults to CS3.  This is not a problem to me as I have been using 
only CS3 since install.

#3 Only an FYI about CS3.  While much better then CS2, it still does 
not seem to have some of the capabilities/benefits that Lightroom has.

Installed in separate folders with no problems. Even copied some plug-ins over to the new beta CS3.
