Apple finally took the wraps off its updated version its desktop operating system Mac OS X 10.10 on Monday, now officially known as Yosemite. In the run-up to the Worldwide Developers Conference.
Adobe has announced that the public beta of Adobe Audition, its professional audio editing suite, is now available for Mac OS X. Adobe Audition has been available for Windows since 2003 (when Adobe acquired the Windows program, Cool Edit Pro) but this beta marks its first appearance on the Mac.
Audition is a digital audio workstation, similar to Pro Tools or Logic Pro. Adobe Audition for Mac boasts a fast new audio playback engine, native multi-channel support for 5.1 surround sound, noise reduction capabilities and audio effects like de-hummers and volume leveling.
In a company announcement, Jim Guerard, vice president and general manager for Dynamic Media at Adobe, said Audition for Mac is part of an ongoing mission to provide 'industry leading, cross-platform content creation tools for creative professionals.'

One cannot downgrade a new Mac to a older version of the OS X operating system to work with hardware/software like one can do with a Windows PC and certain 'Pro' versions or better.

Apple Mac OS X launchd For The Complete Idiot (on OS X Lion and above. A short tutorial) Update: May 1, 2015: Since writing this several years ago I have switched to the Lingon program. I leave this article up in case someone wants to configure launchd 'by hand' which if you ask me, is a total PITA. I recommend Lingon!
Mac users can download the beta version of Adobe Audition at labs.adobe.com/technologies/audition. The program requires an Intel Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.7 or Mac OS X 10.6. There is no serial number or activation for this download, but it will expire when the beta period ends.
Adobe also offers Adobe Soundbooth, its audio package for users that are not audio professionals. In other words, it's more of a consumer-grade tool. On its FAQ page, Adobe says that one priority of bringing Audition to the Mac is to improve workflows by providing solid integration with Adobe Premiere Pro.
Adobe has put a lot of work into making Premiere Pro more competitive with Apple's Final Cut Studio — especially in CS5. In my own experience (which isn't in a professional capacity, but does include multi-track, multi-source editing), I've found Premiere Pro CS5 for Mac to be better and more efficient than Final Cut Studio in many arenas. However, while Final Cut Studio can easily integrate with Logic Pro and Avid's Media Composer can integrate with Pro Tools, Premiere Pro for Mac lacks its own professional audio component. With Audition for Mac, that gap is now filled.
It's exciting to see Adobe bring its professional audio toolset to Mac OS X. We look forward to bugging our audio professional friends to see how it stacks up against the competition, especially in Adobe-laden workflows.
To run ArcGIS Desktop or ArcGIS Pro on an Apple Macintosh computer, the Mac must be set up to run Windows. There are severals ways to do this, but they require one of two installation options.
Option One: Create a dual-boot setup on your Mac, which allows you to boot into either Mac OS or Windows OS. The typical method for this is to use the free software BootCamp.

Option Two: Create a virtual machine on your Mac, which allows you to run an installation of Windows OS in parallel with your existing Mac OS, and to switch from one to the other without booting into either one separately. Typical choices for the virtualization option are the licensed software Parallels or VMware.

ESRI has more information on these options here. When configuring Windows with any of these options, it is important the configuration meets the minimum system requirements for installing ArcGIS Pro.

Keep in mind that ESRI does NOT support ArcGIS for Mac, and that you can only use ArcGIS within one of the Windows OS installation options described above. For more information from Esri, see https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/get-started/run-pro-on-a-mac.htm.
