It'd be really nice if Apple would only add RAW Support for my Fuji Cameras (IS-1, S100-FS)

Does this make it a true 64 bit app like Adobes Lightroom 2? I'm tired of companies like Apple dragging their feet over converting their programs to 64 bit cocoa.

@Blah

Short answer is NO. Apple is facing a very serious problem with its pro applications -- all of them are loaded with Carbon legacy code, and it is unclear what resources Apple is putting into moving them to Cocoa, and thus allowing them to be 64-bit.

For what it is worth, Adobe has the same problem with its pro graphics apps, including Photoshop, and has made it clear that it will be several years (CS5) before the Mac gets a 64-bit version of Photoshop or Illustrator.

This is a shame all around, since every Mac shipping today is a true 64-bit computer, hardware AND OS. With any luck, we will see more action on 64-bit apps after Snow Leopard ships.

Software update didn't find the 2.1.1 update...

Not only that, but you have to go to the download site and enter your serial number to get the update... *sigh* Why????

Okay, so I ran the update and it doesn't think I have "Aperture 2.0 or greater" on my system... Hmmm... Looks like Aperture 2.1... Smells like... Well it stinks, that's what it does... Guess it's time for a call to Apple....

@ Ralph M

Actually only Final Cut Pro/Express is loaded with Carbon legacy code.

XLM:

Just to clarify: Are you saying only FCP/E has any Carbon code, or it is the only one with a lot of Carbon code? My impression was that all of the Studio apps used Carbon to one degree or another, altho FCP was the worst, since it was originally developed by MacroMind to run under OS9.

Curious minds want to know...
