I recently purchased a new Wacom & updated my MacBook w/ Lion. Tried to download Sketchbook but it will not let me install. It lets me begin the registration during installation, but the install button is inactive and I cannot click on it at all to complete the download. It’s quite annoying and am wondering if Autodesk is even worth dealing with. What advice can anyone give me to get around the installation problems?

Have the devs made any progress on the slow-down issue?

There is a new update of SketchBook Pro that addresses this issue.

Hello everyone. I am new to the forum. I have been using sketchbook pro for the last few months on my 2009 i7 27” iMac. Loaded to the gills with memory. I have been encountering a problem when the canvas is rotated. I get extreme brush lag. To the point of being unusable. I am also using a intous 4 sketch pad. I have the latest drivers for both lion, wacom, and sketchbook. I even tried it under Bootcamp win7 and get the same brush lag on my iMac.

Now I have been doing some experimenting over the past week with different machines. I have a 2010 macbook pro with the nvidia 330mgt. When I run SBP on there with the built in display I seem to have great performance. I even tested it on a 2010 mac pro with the 5870 video card from ATI and get the same lag performance when rotating the canvas as I do on my iMac.

My school has dell workstations with quadro 5000 cards. I don’t see any lag on that.

I want to know what the issue is and how I can fix it. Does sketchbook pro run better on nvidia cards than ATI? What is the best mac config I can get to run this program properly. I prefer to work on a large screen rather than my laptop. Is this program made for workstation video cards?

Hey, I’m new as well.
I’ve been using sketchbook Pro for some years, for professional applications.
Recently I bought a new laptop with i7 core. Since than, no way of working properly.
The program has become annoyingly slow.
If this continues to long, I’ll have to look for an other application.
This would be a pitty, as I liked working with this program

Hi there, just downloaded the trial for Mac. I see some lagging in drawing and dropping of lines altogether that would become intolerable in a natural workflow. I also see some posts dating 6 months with the same issue. Lastly I see a post with a fix, also dating back in August from a AD Dev. guy named Matt who’s providing dead links, thanks very much! So I’m really at a loss here, This level of idiocy doesn’t seem possible for a company with the caliber of Autodesk. Movin on I guess . . . and by the way this doesn’t exactly motivate one to invest in their other products.
