Nikon listed its planned support for software on OS X Lion in the following press release: There are also no issues installing HDR Efex Pro into any host application.” More details at Nik’s website. “There are no issues installing our plug-ins into Lightroom or Aperture on a Mac running OS 10.7 Lion. This issue will affect both new and re-installations of these plug-ins.”
#CHECKBOOK PROGRAM FOR MAC LION INSTALL#
“The current installers for Dfine 2.0, Viveza 2, Color Efex Pro 3.0, Silver Efex Pro 2, and Sharpener Pro 3.0 are not able to install into Photoshop CS5 on a Mac running OS 10.7 Lion. It appears that the open source Photoshop-alternative, GIMP, does not currently support OS X Lion. Some compatibility issues with audio channel mapping. The DeepMeta website currently only lists download versions through OS X 10.6. Part of the problem could be server issues at iStock (nothing new). IStockers are having mixed results with DeepMeta. CanonĬanon is currently testing compatibility issues and will release a statement once testing is complete. Avidįor those of you editing video on Avid Media Composer, Lion is not yet supported. AdobeĪdobe has listed “known issues” for OS X Lion compatibility with its products here. If you are aware of something that should be on this list, drop a comment or shoot me a message via the contact form.īottom line: If you have mission-critical software on your Mac, do not update to Lion until you have confirmed from the vendor that it is in-fact compatible with Lion and future support will continue.

It’s a list of what I have been made aware of or dug up as of today. Note that this is not a comprehensive list of compatibility issues for photo and video editing software. Nikon and Adobe (among others) specifically detailed which of their applications that have compatibility issues with OS X Lion. I haven’t upgraded my MacBook yet because I’m still running software that won’t run on Lion. As I’m sure most Mac users are aware of by now, OS X Lion is out.
