Printing from programs that rely on Rosetta are no longer working and Excel 2004 also freezes when accessing the File > Open menu command. The problems appear to stem from Rosetta, a lightweight and dynamic binary translator (discontinued in Lion) that lets Intel-based Macs run programs written for PowerPC machines. There is a workaround solution that helps alleviate the issue, at least until Apple addresses it with another update, explained right after the break. This includes popular applications such as Quicken, Filemaker 7, Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Office 2004 and X. The issue, as described on Tidbits, MacInTouchand on Apple Support Communities threads ( here, here and here), causes some third-party programs to crash unexpectedly under Snow Leopard. As part of the Mac OS X 10.7.3 update released earlier this week, Security Update 2012-001 for Snow Leopard broke compatibility with several Rosetta Power PC programs.
