So I'm hoping you can help (thanks in advance!) by sharing your experience and knowledge.įWIW, the Mac programs in CS3 and CS4 are 32 bit, if that makes any difference in OS-compatibility. now, because I don't have a Mac, I cannot do experiments (try the two programs with each OS) to see what happens. These questions are important in deciding what to buy, but. Will Dreamweaver-CS3 and Fireworks-CS4 run properly in all ways, with higher OS, with 10.7 or 8, 9, 10?ĭoes the kind of computer make a difference for this? For example, would these programs behave differently in OS 10.9 on the 2010-Macbook or 2012-Mini? (probably not, I assume) (of course, running an OS higher than 10.6 also offers benefits!) But this MBP failed recently, due to heat, and for my next Mac(s) two options are a 2010 Macbook (MC516LL) that can run OS 10.6, or a 2012 Mac Mini with i5 (MD387LL) that will not run OS 10.6 but does offer other benefits. All ran well on my mid-2007 Macbook Pro (MA896LL) with OS 10.6.8.
I want to continue using CS3+CS4, mainly Dreamweaver CS3 and Fireworks CS4, plus some Photoshop & Acrobat Pro in CS4.
