[cfaussie] Mac OSX Lion
Hi There, For all those Mac users out there you might find this article interesting from Adobe; http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/905/cpsid_90508.html which contains the following; * Java Runtime needs to be installed manually, otherwise applications may behave inconsistently * Flash Builder Flash Builder 4.0.x will not work on Mac OS X 10.7. Adobe does not intend to update this product for use on Mac OS X 10.7. Flash Builder 4.5 is generally compatible with Mac OS X Lion; however, we have discovered issues that may degrade the user experience or affect use of the products. We do not recommend that these customers upgrade to Mac OS X 10.7. * Flash Catalyst Flash Catalyst CS5 will not work on Mac OS X 10.7. Adobe does not intend to update this product for use on Mac OS X 10.7. Flash Catalyst CS5.5 is generally compatible with Mac OS X Lion; however, we have discovered issues that may degrade the user experience or affect use of the products. We do not recommend that these customers upgrade to Mac OS X 10.7. Interestingly there is no mention of ColdFusion Builder in the article. Looks like I will not be upgrading straight away Gavin. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.

Re: [cfaussie] Mac OSX Lion
Hi Gavin and everyone I've had Flash Builder 4.5 running all day today, and haven't come across any problems with Lion so far. ColdFusion is another story. As far as i can tell, right now I can only get ColdFusion 9.0 running if i run it as root. CF 9.01 seems to hang halfway through startup and you have to end up killing the process, even when running as root. If you've got a critical piece of CF work to get done, don't upgrade your machine unless you want to spend a few hours trying to figure out why it isn't working and then downgrading your install. Also, if you want to install Lion on several machines, back up the downloaded Installer before you run it. Otherwise it's gone afterwards and you have to get it again. I speak from experience here.

Sorry, I don't want to appear more than a smart-arse as I need to be - but to make my point: > > If you've got a critical piece of CF work to get done, don't upgrade your > machine unless you want to spend a few hours trying to figure out why it > isn't working and then downgrading your install. If you've got a critical piece of ANYTHING to get done, would one then really upgrade one's machine to a new OS as an early adopter on day 1 or 2? Seriously people? I usually wait 2-3 weeks for installing 10.x.x point upgrades for very good reasons, let alone a 10.x upgrade.

Re: [cfaussie] Mac OSX Lion
It's very true Kai. But of course, if you don't have anything that's critical, plus a spare machine, and you like to tinker, then go for it :) Phil On 22/07/11 3:54 PM, Kai Koenig wrote: Sorry, I don't want to appear more than a smart-arse as I need to be - but to make my point: If you've got a critical piece of CF work to get done, don't upgrade your machine unless you want to spend a few hours trying to figure out why it isn't working and then downgrading your install.

But I guess I've seen too many people upgrading their one and only work machine on day 1 or Lion and then complain that the major tools are not fully working yet.

I'm stunned too. I _never_ upgrade on a .0 release (and I've been a huge Apple fan since the 80's). Wait for at least .1 or better .2... The other important thing - which I'm stunned CFers haven't paid attention to - is that Apple announced _AGES AGO_ that they wouldn't be supporting Java and would be passing that over to Oracle in future, with releases of OpenJDK. And yet CFers are shocked that Lion doesn't seem to have Java built-in :) -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
