El Capitan and 10 + Mac I have installed so far

Because I can't find too many reports on bugs that I lived during the installation/use a variety of Mac with El Capitan, I thought it would be a good idea to list the most interesting problems that I have encountered in the process. It is perhaps useful to other users.

In my work during the day, I am responsible for the well-being of some 30 + Mac/Mac servers and their users. Since we are a prepress company, we need a very stable and predictable, and software environment. We arrived finally with a configuration which should suit our needs at least to come next year.

Basic installation includes the software operating system, Adobe CreativeCloud, Office2011 and Eizo calibration.

Since I wanted to know if the Mac are in good condition, I decided to go the long way with each machine, not only to drop an image on the disk and let it run. In doing so, I saw things much clumsy that I'll probably post on my printpraxis.net blog in the coming weeks (in German).

To make things short - my list:

  1. We use monitors NEC 19 "for pallets in CC especially when using Photoshop on MacPros, white GUI elements on the secondary screen turn Cyan and back to white. Users, whose job involves working a lot with color calibrated, are extremely disturbed by it. We have not yet understood whether it is an Apple oder question to Adobe.
  2. Opening dialog print takes older (about 20 seconds) - including seeing the Rainbow wheel a lot. We will print to a Canon color with an EFI rip laser.
  3. In one case, the contacts address book is removed by the system whenever a contact is changed or a new contact is added. Every time. We seem to have "solved" this problem by deleting all the contacts 2 045 and re-import them.
  4. In one case, Mail fails to connect fully with our Kerio Connect, hide folders, the user has on Kerio and actually removes local folders without apparent reason. It is still not resolved and I'll try to look in this tomorrow. 'Repair' standard procedures did not improve the situation right now.
  5. Software Adobe CC indicates missing fonts - but Linotype Fontexplorer shows their alive. Disable and reenable the fonts "solves" this.

I would add that during the process of wiping/reset to zero the internal disks and try to get the installer of El Capitan via the AppStore, Apple in some cases refused permission to install El Capitan, although the system is officially supported. I could solve this problem of booting from an external hard drive and installing from there to the internal drive. Interestingly, this seems to be about AppleID Apple user to provide forces. Our company at times code was refused and I had to use an ID to get setup.

After all, Apple obviously does not test the OS on conventional HDs-since El Capitan is too slow for professional work on the turning points of metal. Samsung has been happy to provide us with six new SSD up to this point.

If you have thoughts on this - or questions, do not hesitate to ask.

Good day

I support macs in a prepress and other envorinement

(1) there are similar reports of brushing causing screen flashes white for users of iMac with 4 K screens. I am a 3D artist in my free time and I read two developers mention OpenCL tools in Mac OS 10.10 and 10.11 must be fixed and both claim that Apple said in July they would solve this, but I've never heard an official response from Apple on this

(2) connect the printers on IP and no other protocols if you have not already.

(3) don't know about this one, I am not user

(4) contact the developer. I used some LaCie spectrometer recommended in 2005, but this story. The calibration is the cocaine of the designer. End users are never satisfied with the results and there is no success with it no matter how much you try.

(5) CC is the police knew, it could be he does not like the linotype app. I try to keep my fonts in font book and as long as I'm not greedy, it don't did me not questions but I gave up a lot of tools 3rd party because they were weird.

I'll "the long way" so I got the images for the same work flawless on a mac mac model, and bananas go on another installs so clean solve a big part of that.

good luck and post back with what you find if you can.

  • My computer is VERY slow after upgrade to El Capitan, and especially after I have downloaded MS Office 2016

    After that I downloaded El Capitan, I was satisfied with the content and the speed for about a week. I did a clean install... After 2 weeks of use, I bought the MS Office 2016 and I think after that, I noticed a significant decrease in performance. I mean, like one where I want to throw my computer out the window about 100 times a day. Takes me 30 minutes to start the computer and perform a simple task like the connection to an account on the internet and missing his shot something. 30 minutes! A task that should take 30 seconds.

    I don't know where is the problem. I have a late 2008 Macbook Alu 2.4 GHz, 8 GB Ram, disk SSD (130 GB of free space) and the rest is the default value. Is there a solution, suggestion? Is it fair that my computer can't take El Capitan even with the plug I have, or are at - it something else?

    Thank you that I advance for any help, I'm desperate with her...

  • Download junk in the background every time that I run Firefox (and I do not have installed AVG)

    I am aware of this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997796 - but I haven't installed AVG. Every time I run Firefox, even in an empty tab page, a few seconds later my bandwidth starts used. I got Cucusoft Net installed guard and TCPEye, and both show that Firefox is connected to the internet and download - even if I have not loaded any page, there's always on 'new tab '...

    I too FDM, but this happens with or without its execution (ditto with my XAMMP localhost installation.)

    I have disabled all add-ons, and run Firefox in safe mode, still the same thing happens: when I start a new tab, my bandwidth is murdered (parenthesis: my normal surfing via Telkom Mobile internet is sloooow between 60 Kbps and 250 Kbps if I'm lucky, but the download of this background is off-the-charts more than 1 200 Kbps and a few seconds) (, I lost more than 20 MB of mobile internet really really expensive, I just can't afford to waste, that's why I have all these monitors TCP and network graphics running all the time.)

    I also ran a Kaspersky rootkit revealer and reported no threat. I have ZoneAlarm antivirus and firewall that does report also no infection (ditto ClamWin)

    I found the problem... it's Firefox.

    How bloody rude of Firefox... I put my browsers NOT auto-Update (because my bandwidth is so bloody expensive) but you choose to override my settings and auto-update anyway... WITHOUT MY CONSENT.

    How bloody rude.

    There's a reason why we put 'no' to the updates, and I expect that respect you this shit.

  • If I switch to 4 FF I'll be able to keep my bookmarks and modules I have installed so far?

    I saw that the new FF 4 is out so I wanted to switch to it. But I wanted to know if my modules installed on 3.6 will be usable in 4 FF. Also, should I do a backup copy of bookmarks or they will be passed to a newer version?
    If the modules transfer what is the average time in which people generally repeat their Add-ons to be used in the new versions?

    It will use your current bookmarks.

    For Add-ons, it will check to see if they are compatible, for those who are not compatible, it will offer to check for updates and disable those that are not compatible.

    Three are not the average time of updated modules, there will be others who have been abandoned by the developer and be refreshed. If you find there is including which modules no longer work ask here about their, anyone know of an alternative.

  • I have a CS4 Design Standard drive, and anything but Photoshop is installed correctly.

    I have a Standard in Design CS4 for Mac OS drive (I'm under El Capitan), and anything but Photoshop is installed correctly. However, when I try to open Photoshop it reads, "cannot open the application"Adobe Photoshop CS4.app"because it may be damaged or incomplete." Any thoughts? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, after that it recharges, Photoshop only or all components and nothing works.

    I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes this problem is due to the error of installation as the problems of disk media.

    To confirm that you try downloaded installation file. Uninstall Photoshop and then download the Design Standard suite and during the installation process, in the select list only Photoshop CS 4, uncheck all the others and then install Photoshop CS 4 only and then try to start.

    Download the CS4 products

  • I have os store, but I have installed Se7en Skin Pack 2 [1] Ultimate.0 and now computer imy not start how should I recover my win7 system file so that I can open xp

    I have two bones store but I have installed Se7en Skin Pack 2 [1].0 Ultimate in xp and now my computer couldn't open xp.  How can I recover my file system through win7 that I should open up xp

    Hello


    Step 1:

    I suggest you start in safe mode, and then you would be able to choose which version of Windows that you want to start in. See below section to start in safe mode-
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Step 2:
    After entering in safe mode, you can try to use system restore to return to a previous point, until the software has been installed.

    Note: When you use System restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To do this, there must be a restore point from the system in which the connection was successful.

    Refer to the following help link on performing a system restore.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306084

    I hope this helps.
