Re: AE7 crashes on new Mac Pro

[Ian Corey] "You understand the repercussions involved in running AE7 on a Mac, right? It's running under an emulator which eats all of your CPU and memory while it's running. You can't get ANYTHING done on that version."

Just to clarify, this is only the case on Intel Macs, which means any Macs younger than about 2 years. If you limit AE7 to use no more than 1GB of RAM then you should experience fewer problems, but your performance will still be limited by the binary emulation inherent in running a PowerPC application on an Intel architecture.

This is only a band-aid, you should really update to CS3, you won't be sorry!

There's an article on the COW that might help you:
