Activating CS2 on third computer, don't have access to old computer.

Hello, I bout CS2 with my wacom tablet many years ago and I am now on my third computer I have installed this product on. However, I no longer have access to either of the two previous computers to deactivate. I've already tried to use chat support, but it doesn't work on any browser I have and calling on the phone just directs me here.
I can't afford to buy a new version (not to mention I use it infrequently enough that going 'subscription' is not feasible either), please help.

you're in luck: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l

I have photos on my iPad that I want to delete. This is my problem. I synced them from my ex-husband's Mac. We are no longer together therefore I don't have access to his computer or iTunes account. Is there any other way to delete them?

Is there a way to unlock my phone? Restarting doesn't do it and I don't have access to my computer with iTunes.

I was asked to set a new passcode this morning which I did (including re-typing the new passcode). The first time I needed to re-enter, the phone failed to accept the new code. I've tried a few times and now I'm locked out. Seen stuff about recovering/restoring the phone but I'm here at work and don't have access to my computer with iTunes. Should I take the phone to an Apple store? Verizon? If so, do I have to wait for the disable period to end? Or is there something else I should do? Thanks.

No wait until you get off work and then restore your phone using your computer with itunes on it.

HT1212 I don't know my passcode for my iPad mini and I don't have access to a computer what do I do

I recently changed my passcode on my iPad mini and forgot what it was and I don't have access to a computer to hook it up to iTunes so what do I do?

Do you have find my iPhone enabled on it? If you do, you could log in to your www.icloud.com account in a web browser on any computer and execute a remote erase command (or use the find my iphone app on another iOS device). Then, restore from your iCloud backup (assuming you have that enabled as well and have an iCloud backup file in place to restore from).

<Email Edited By Host>

If you changed your Apple ID from the old email address (that is showing up) to a new one, but just forgot to update it on your iPhone, try these steps.
1. Use your current Apple ID password
Trying using your current Apple ID password. If that doesn't work, continue to the next step.
2. Sign out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime
If you are currently signed in to iMessage or FaceTime
Sign out of iMessage or FaceTime:
iMessage: Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
FaceTime: Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
Sign back in to iMessage or FaceTime:
iMessage: Go to Settings > Messages, then tap "Use your Apple ID for iMessage".
FaceTime: Go to Settings > FaceTime, then tap "Use your Apple ID for FaceTime".
You should now be able to sign out of iCloud. You will still see your previous Apple ID when signing out.
If you are not signed in to iMessage or FaceTime
Sign in to iMessage or FaceTime:
iMessage: Go to Settings > Messages, then tap "Use your Apple ID for iMessage".
FaceTime: Go to Settings > FaceTime, then tap "Use your Apple ID for FaceTime".
You should now be able to sign out of iCloud. You will still see your previous Apple ID when signing out.
3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.

I don't have access to a computer and so,without physically attaching my iPod touch to PC devices, can you manually restore an apple iPod touch, restrictions passcode online to iTunes and restore it to store purchased factory settings?

Sorry but no. The only way to restore an iPod to factory settings is through iTunes on a computer. You will need to get access to a computer somehow. If you can get to an Apple Store, they can probably help you.

If you can't remember your password then have you tried getting it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com ?
If you can't get it reset via that then try contacting Support in your country and see if they can reset it for you : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

IPhone linked with old owner's account. Don't have access to old owner. Please help.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".

How to undo remember password on a work computer (don't have access to 'Security' tab under 'Options'

Accidently pressed 'remember password' when logging into Gmail via Firefox. Unfortunately am using a work computer and don't have access to the 'Security' tab under 'Options'. How do I go about undoing the remember password function? I've cleared all history, passwords etc and have shut down computer (this happened yesterday, logged back in today and details still saved).

You can try running firefox with the profile manager open (firefox.exe -p in run or right click the icon and add properties and stick it to the end of the target ("C:\Program Files (x86)\mozilla firefox\firefox.exe" - p) Then try deleting that profile and creating a new one.

HT1766 can i sync my iphone to a diffrent computer. i dont have access to the computer my itunes is on anymore

also the computer i want to use has an itunes acount on it and i dont wanna mess up that persons itunes.

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPhone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this to back up manually:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Hey 34grumpy4u,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPod touch is currently in recovery mode, and needs to be restored. You can restore your iPod with any computer, then transfer your information back to your iPod once you have access to your backup (whether it was made via iCloud or iTunes).

I want don't have access to old authorized computers, what do I do?

I'm trying to authorize my new work computer, but have exceeded the number of authorizations. I do not have access to my old work computers to deauthorize them. What do I do?

Use the Deauthorize All command documented in this article, or if it isn't an option, the 'contact iTunes Store support' link at the bottom of it.
