PS. You can bid on my canvas here…

So after finding that one of my dock icons appeared pixelated, I recently experienced some of my dock icons become invisible.

I’m not sure what caused it although I think I was running low on disk space at the time so it may have been memory related. All I did to fix it was re-drag the application into the dock and the icon reappeared. There’s also a discussion in the Apple support forums about disappearing icons.

Recently I upgraded my Adobe Suite to CS4 and upon launching one of the application this dialog box appears…

I have been using Adobe products for many years. From my early days in design I was using Photoshop and Illustrator, and also using Macromedia’s web design products like Flash, Dreamweaver and Fireworks which were then acquired by Adobe in 2005.

In recent years I have found the the quality of the Adobe products, particularly their web development applications, Flash, Dreamweaver and Fireworks, has been slowly getting worse.

No idea why or how this happened.

Seemed to happen not long after upgrading to OS X Snow Leopard. Had a search around and found other people had been experiencing blurry/pixelated dock icons too. Also, this thread on the Apple Support web site.

Anyway, I just dragged the Safari application into the dock again and that fixed it for me – weird…
