Mac OS X 10.6.7 Update Resolves Photoshop CS5 Bugs

By

Photoshop CS5

The recent update for OS X fixes a conflict with Photoshop CS5 in OS X versions 10.6.5 and 10.6.6.

One or more of the following issues occur when you use Photoshop CS5 after updating Mac OS to 10.6.5 or 10.6.6:

  • The warning, “Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?” appears when you open Photoshop.
  • The startup screen reads White Rabbit, instead of Photoshop CS5, and looks different.
  • Tools behave as if the Shift or Option keys are pressed.
  • Your cursor remains the plug sign (+).

Upgrading to OS X version 10.6.7 should resolve these problems.  You can upgrade to 10.6.7 by clicking on “Software Update” from the Apple menu in OS X.
