Apple Snow Leopard Bugs after installation

September3

Snow Leopard arrived yesterday. I’ve installed this on my spare MacBook for testing purposes and thankfully not yet on my work MacBook. With some further twitter research, it appears I’m not alone. Adobe is actively working with Apple to fix the below bugs – but if I were you, hold off updating for the moment.

BUG #1
Firefox 3.x crashes when using it’s download manager. specifically Adobe’s Software updates.
Solution – Use Safari until an update from Apple

BUG #2
New Apple font ‘Menlo’ crashes CS4 when you attempt to use it.
Solution – Delete this font

BUG #3
Unable to drag images from Safari directly into another application in the Dock. Be it Photoshop, Word or other.
Solution – Wait for update from Apple

BUG #4
CS4 Photoshop crashes particularly during Open and Save operations. CS3 also crashes if you try opening CS4 created files.
Solution – Wait for Apple update.

    I’ve had no issues with CS4 Photoshop yet. Though its MOST annoying that SL has disabled a lot of my sys prefs and mouse controls. Very annoying.

    Re bug #3:

    Drag the image over the app icon in the dock, hold it there for a sec, then when it shows you the app open, hold it over the app for a few secs.

    I just did it a few times.
