space Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Just installed Adobe Photoshop CS on my OSx86 machine. When I´m trying to launch it, it displays this error message: "could not initialize Photoshop because there is not enough memory (RAM)" The hardware is a Celeron D 2.66GHz with 512MB ram. The way I see it this should be more than enough to run PS. BTW: My first post on this exellent forum.

Eggman Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Okay. According to their webpage, you need 384 MB to run it. This is on the PPC architecture. Running under Rosetta is very painful in terms of RAM. Although I can't remember how much it needs exactly, I can tell you this: I had to upgrade to 1.5 GB to run fully, and at that point, I didn't even TRY Photoshop. Sorry.

space Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 hmm.... Adobe Image Ready works though. Maybe I´m not missing to much. Image Ready looks like it has the elementary parts I usually use.

There was no problem for me to run tryout on my 1111g - on 512MB(1G now) RAM - maybe your osx doesn't have space to swap to.
