2. Re: CS5.5 Master Collection on Case-Sensitive File System
Marian Driscoll May 31, 2011 5:52 AM (in response to simmonsjeffrey)You are not installing to just that disk image. Photoshop might install the program to whatever drive you want but some elements must be installed on the system drive and that is where you find the problem.
Googling for "photoshop case sensitive" brings up others that have had some success.
Aternatively, you could install a Windows version of Photoshop on a Windows virtual machine on the Mac or as a dual boot option on a partitioned drive. The Windows system does not appear to be affected by this case sensitive stuff.

simmonsjeffrey May 31, 2011 6:01 AM (in response to Marian Driscoll)Thank you for the information, I had a hunch it was installing stuff elsewhere too, but wasn't 100% sure. As for the problem, I ended up just converting to a case-insensitive boot partition. To others who may want to do this, I used iPartition without a problem. The only catch is, you can't just run it from the OS drive, you either have to burn a iPartition Boot DVD (requires you have your OS dvd as well), or do what I did and just install OSX to an external drive, install iPartition, then convert the file system on the regular OS drive. A bit of a hassle, but you don't have to format your system.
CS5.5 Master Collection then installed fine, with no problems. Unfortunately, Photoshop keeps repeatedly crashing. It's fine for hours, then crashes 4+ times within an hour. Repeats this over and over unfortunately. Adobe support hasn't been helpful at all, so I'm just going to return this software and continue using Gimp. It has always done everything I wanted, but I wanted the "name brand" software. In the end, it's not worth the hassle, and definitely not worth losing my work over and over, so back to the store it goes. Thanks again for taking the time to help out though.

Pharther Phurther Jun 17, 2011 2:41 PM (in response to simmonsjeffrey)There is also problems with filenames in AE and Encore .. be wary.
Beware of numbers and odd characters ...
I have lost TONS of work because of such. Not happy and not kidding.
I will update as I find out more.
