PhotoKit Sharpener and PS 2024
« on: October 26, 2023, 09:32:28 pm »

Has anyone been able to get it working in PS 2024? It did work in PS 2023, but appears to throw an error in PS 2024 for me. Of course its no longer supported by the original creators which is a shame.. but its been my staple for printing for years for output sharpening....

THanks - I got it working this morning in MAC OS. Just had to fiddle with stupid security settings that was forcing an error.

The product(s) isn't going to run on Apple Silicon.

Update the processor, you're done.

In no hurry to do that.. Ive locked the system down now to prevent Apple breaking anything. :-) It will stay on current OS until end of life as the print machine :-)

My warning of total product failure is for anyone considering Apple Silicon and modern versions of PS.
The product is forever dead. 😢

FWIW, I've done the same and keep a Mac Pro for "special" purposes (like printing).

I know the PK sharpener will no longer work on my Mac Studio w/ PS 2024 and I know some people have said that it's all been incorporated into LR anyway over the years..... but I liked the various sharpening settings for different film size scans (120, 4x5 etc). That's not in LR anywhere is it (I suppose you'd call it capture sharpening for scans, as opposed to output sharpening for prints)?
Thanks,
Alan.

New question: I installed PK Sharpener according to their instructions. I have two versions of PS installed: CS6 and CC 2024. PK Sharpener shows up in CS6 but not in the latest version. Any ideas as to why it isn't showing up there?

Location of the PK folder in Windows 11 is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins

Try copying or moving the PK folder to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2024\Plug-ins.
They work without issues in Photoshop CC 2024 on Windows 11

Thanks very much! That works. I mistakenly placed the PK folder in the CS6 plugins folder.  ::) It's in both folders now.

So you've run all the routines of all three products?
