Title: 64-bit flag doesn't stick?
Post by: Kuryan Thomas on August 10, 2008, 09:42:24 am

It appears that whenever I reboot my Mac Pro, the Lightroom 2 "64-bit flag" gets reset back to 32 bits.

So, I deselect the Get Info checkbox "Open in 32 Bit Mode". As soon as I reboot, the checkbox is selected again.

This is a 2-month old 8-core Mac Pro, 10GB RAM, OS X 10.5.4.

Any suggestions? Thank you all.

I have the same problem. Get Info window shows 32bit ticked after a reboot. MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-core 8GB ram 10.5.4.

Is there a solution for the "non-stick" problem?

64 bit tag now "sticks"..Increased RAM from 6 Gig to 13 Gig..was that the problem?

I don't think so. I have a MacBook with only 3 gigs (max), it sticks for me.

Maybe there is a preference that needs to be deleted?

Great   I had to read this thread. My DeskPro (Intel) has 4 gig. Thought I was using 64-bit. Checked Info. 32-bit toggled. Now I've got to watch for this solution! Wish you guys would stop finding these issues.

I got this answer from Tom Hogarty on Adobe Forum

"Watch the splash screen when you launch Lightroom 2. It should still indicate that you're running the 64-bit version. There's a bug in Leopard that resets the checkbox even though the application is still running in 64-bit. The bug has been filed with Apple".

Thanks, Nicolas. I had the splash screen turned off, so I never noticed that. I've turned it back on.
