Downloaded the link to the Apple SMBIOS extension that everyone was raving about in the several posts just ahead of this (from Nickhamm). It won't actually open on a Mac, but is it even for a Mac, or just a PC? I'm having the same crashing problems on my Mac ever since I installed CS3. Any magic fixes for that? Thanks for any help for a non-technical graphics person.

It's for Hackintoshes i.e. PC's running mac os X. Probably won't do anything on a real mac...

Hi, I just ordered Adobe's Production Premium CS3 yesterday. Are you saying that it will give the same crash problem on a Mac Pro that the Green Dem... version gives on the hackintosh prior to installing the AppleSMBIOS.kext? That will really be disappointing.

I have no idea. I don't have a MacPro, but an older Mac, which is why I'm probably having the problem.

yeah, i can not run CS3 too. All CS3 app crashes everytime.

Are you talking about the one made by Netkas?

talking to me? i got a Enterprise VOL from demon

can some one upload the AplleSMBIOS.kext ?

Wenle Z. do a bit of searching, come on, it's on his blog freely available for download.

adplus: AppleSMBIOS is a kernel extension file that belongs in /System/Library/Extensions

again, do a bit of searching to find easy answers.

Don't forget to repair permissions if you place the kext in /System/Library/Extensions, and then remove the Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache from /System/Library

Hi I am having the same problem, all CS3 apps crash on start. . .

Does this fix work on PPC macs? and if not is there a similar fix out there?

thanks anyway . . .

This kernel extension is for OSx86 Installs only.
