How to transfer adobe audition to a new laptop?

Hi,
In 2005 I purchased a genuine license of Adobe Audition 1.5 and installed it on a laptop. I would like to
1) update to version 3
2) move it to a new laptop (that I'm going to buy).
I got all the ref. no., card, date, time of my purchase but I didn't understand how to update. I found the cost of the update is 99 USD but I can't understand if I can move it to a new laptop. I do not need to keep the old version working. I do not want to have 2 copies of the s/w working. I just want to move to a new hardware as the old one is becoming very unstable and obsolete.
Is it possible? If yes, how to do that?
regards,

My understanding of this is that if you purchase the upgrade version, it will ask you for the serial number of your previous version (or to insert the install disk if you have one?) before proceeding to install. And it would do this every time you did it. What you also have to be aware of is that on AA3.0 there is also a separate activation process which is normally carried on on line (but can also be carried out over the phone, I believe) which effectively registers that particular installation as 'belonging' to the machine it's on - and you can do this twice for the particular copy you have. The good thing about this particular activation process is that if you need to, you can also de-activate a copy, which means that you can easily transfer it to another machine if you want.
You can install 1.5 on your new machine anyway, and use this installation as the upgrade 'key' if you like - and a lot of people actually do this, simply because for a lot of functionality 1.5 is fine, and rather more efficient. So they effectively use both versions for different things. Adobe have fortunately continued the old Syntrillium concept of all versions being able to co-exist with each other, so there are no down-sides to this arrangement at all.

  • CS4 - how to transfer photos in bridge to new laptop (CS4 has been installed)

    Purchased a new laptop (pc).  The technician told me to deactivate CS4 on my old laptop before activating it on my new laptop.  Did so.  I asked that all my raw photos located in bridge be transferred over to my new laptop.  It appears this did not take place.  Maybe I can do this myself?

    Your Raw files are in the directory you kept them. Bridge does not assign directories.
    So do a simple .nef search (or whatever raw format you use) to locate and transfer your raw files over.
    You can place them in any directory.
    If you have keywords, you can also export those to your new Bridge. Bride has no activation so it should work on the old setup.
    Go into the keywords panel, select export and use a thumb drive to move the .txt keyword file over to your new PC and them Import in the Keyword Panel menu.

  • How To Extend Adobe Audition CS5.5

    I've received a number of questions on how to extend Adobe Audition with questions similar to:
    How do I import file format X?
    How do I import a project from application Y?
    Will there be an SDK available?
    How do I add plug-ins to Audition?
    I had made a post similar to this in the public beta of Audition for Mac, but I can no longer find the thread. So I'll reiterate some stuff here:
    Area
    Info
    Adding VST Plug-Ins
    Most of you have found this already, but the best place to start is in the Audio Plug-In Manager
    If you want to "write" new plug-ins for Audition, writing a VST plug-in will be the best option as it will allow you to write something that will work on Windows as well as OSX.  Info on writing a VST plug-in may be found here (http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developer.html)
    Adding Audio Unit Plug-Ins (Mac OSX)
    Same as Above.   Note that OSX ships with some built-in AU plug-ins that Audition can utilize for free if you just scan at least once.   We don't scan on startup because there's several plug-ins out there in the world that don't behave well.  Info on Audio Unit plug-in development can be found here (http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/MusicAudio/Conceptual/AudioUnitProgr ammingGuide/TheAudioUnit/TheAudioUnit.html)
    Adding more import formats via libsndfile
    libsndfile is an open-source C library for reading and writing audio files (http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/)   Ambitious people could download the source, write support for another format, and create their own custom-rolled library of libsndfile.  You would then replace the version of libsndfile with which Audition CS5.5 ships, with the one you rolled.   Due to the way we use libsndfile, any format you add would show up in Audition.   This is also true if there's an official update to libsndfile that comes out in the future, you could just plop it in and it should work. 
    If you're interested in exporting or writing formats that libnsdfile supports, please tell us which formats are the most important to you and in what way you use them in your workflow.
    Adding more import formats via QuickTime components
    QuickTime has the ability to be extended via QuickTime Components.   There's several examples out there, but here are some websites to check out:
    QuickTime Components (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html)
    Learn about even more QuickTime capabilities (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/extending/components.html)
    Flip4Mac for Windows Media support on OSX (http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm)
    Perian -- the swiss-army knife for QuickTime (http://perian.org/)
    Calibrated Software (http://www.calibratedsoftware.com/products.asp)
    In most cases, just adding the various QuickTime components will automatically add the import functionality to Audition.
    Importing project formats from other applications
    As seen on other threads in this forum, Ses2sesx (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/ses2sesx.html) and AATranslator (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/) seem to add quite a bit of support.
    SDK
    At this time, we haven't released an SDK for Audition.   If you're interested in one, however, please tell us what you would want from an SDK for Audition and we'll take it into consideration.

    Charles,
    could you please also advise what PC users can do to make common avi files useable in AA CS5.5? The obvious problem is, no matter how many exotic video formats a PC can play by way of video-for-windows codecs, these are useless for Quicktime, because Quicktime on the PC needs codecs specifically written for "Quicktime for Windows", which are, as I've come to find, EXTREMELY rare. So far I've only found ONE, sold by 3ivx, but this costs as much as the AA CS5.5 update itself. Without them, Quicktime on the PC will only handle mov files, which are not too popular on the PC. Is there any other way out of this?

  • How to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

    how to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

    You don't.  Registration is a one time thing that you do the first time you install an application.  Once registered it does not need to be done again.
    You should see if yoiu can have the activations reset before you try installing on a new machine so that you still have the two activations that are available to you.  If not, you should still have an activation available for use with the new installation.
    To reset activations contact Adobe Support and ask them to reset your activations....  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

    To get it working on the new machine you just install and activate using the serial number you should already have.

  • Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.

    Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.?

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

    I've just got a new computer does any one know how to transfer my song to my new computer. I've installed itunes but can't seem to transfer the songs.

    you can use home sharing.
    or, assuming you have all your media files in the default location, copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from the old to the exact same location on the new machine.
    you can either use your network or an external HD for that.

    how to transfer music from iphone to new computer

    iTunes will transfer your purchases from your iPhone to your new computer by using File>Transfer Purchases. For the rest of the content that’s on your iPhone use a program called TouchCopy which works on Windows and the Mac. It transferred my music, photos, contacts and SMS to my new computer very well.
