Retina Adobe Photoshop CS6 coming on the 11th of December?

Come 11th of December, Adobe will be hosting an event called “Create Now Live” and while it seems that the event could be centered around the Adobe Creative Cloud, it looks like there is a good chance that the event will also be when Adobe will be releasing a Retina version of its Photoshop CS6 image editing software. While it has not been officially confirmed, a video Adobe uploaded on YouTube seems to have hinted at that. If you were to watch the video above, you might notice that Photoshop is running on Apple’s Retina MacBook Pro, and when the video zooms in on the software, you might notice that the software appears to be pretty sharp looking which seems consistent with it being updated to support the MacBook Pro’s Retina display. We’ll be keeping our fingers crossed but hopefully all will be revealed come 11th December, so check back with us then for the details.

Adobe Photoshop won’t support Windows XP in next major release

If you still cling to that Windows XP-powered PC as your graphics workhorse, Adobe reckons it’s time you upgraded. Photoshop CS6 will be the last release to support Microsoft’s venerable operating system, with Adobe stating that advances in more modern OS’ and graphics processing have allowed for more 3D and Lighting Effect improvements — ones that cannot be rendered within the older Windows iteration. It’s also worth noting that Vista doesn’t support CS6 either, so anyone thinking of upgrading will have to look towards Windows 7, or wait a little longer for the next big thing. Adobe added that specific Creative Cloud updates will also skip over Windows XP users — even if they still take up fair chunk of the PC crowd.

Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 4 will support HiDPI, MacBook Pro Retina Display in ‘the coming months’

You know who’s likely to buy the MacBook Pro with Retina Display? Creative professionals (obviously). So you know what programs should really be optimized for that 2,880 x 1,800 screen? Try Photoshop, or Lightroom. Adobe hears your frustration, and apparently empathizes mightily: the company just posted a blog post promising Photoshop CS6, Lightroom 4 and Photoshop Touch will support HiDPI, including the MacBook Pro’s Retina Display, within the “coming months.” (No, this near-term update does not include Photoshop Elements, unfortunately.) While that timetable is on the vague side, the outfit says having a Creative Cloud membership will ensure you get that update sooner. Until then, your frankengadget renders will still look a little blurry, sorry.
