Moving adobe acrobat x pro to larger drive D (off ssd2 drive C) - what are the steps needed

I have Win7, only 4 GB left on my SSD drive C and a large regular drive D. My programs are on drive C (which includes Master CS6 and Adobe acrobat X Pro) and documents/pictures are on drive D and I still need to clear out room on drive C. Before I buy a larger drive C SSD, can I :
Move Adobe Acrobat X Pro program to drive D by uninstalling on drive C and reinstalling it on Drive D?
Do I need to move the program CS6 Master collection to the same drive that adobe Acrobat X Pro exists?
Does Adobe Acrobat X Pro need me to move any other programs from C to D in order to work - if uninstall on drive C and reinstall on drive D doesn't take care of all supporting files?
if I am able to move Acrobat X Pro to drive D, will my documents know the path or is there a way to make sure that everything reroutes to drive D?
Will Acrobat X Pro updates find the program if it is on drive D, or is there something to direct updates to the new location, if I am able to move X Pro to drive D?
I need step by step examples, even though I know web design and xhtml/css/php/js coding, hardware and this kind of cleaning up intimidates me.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

You can sometimes move software by uninstalling and reinstalling. However ON NO ACCOUNT uninstall Acrobat that is part of Creative Suite, because it is a devil of a job to reinstall. Use only Creative Suite installer; not sure if it can install to another disk.
If the software is installed to another location it should just work with nothing to fix.
But the savings may be much smaller than you think. Only a little of the disk space used is in the selected disk. Some is in Common Files, which doesn't move, and much more is in the Windows Installer Database, which doesn't move.
I would look for other savings than moving software.

What are the steps to follow after you install a new Hard Drive on a 17in Macbook Pro mid 2009

I plan on installing a larger Hard Drive..the physical part is simple..but what are the steps after you close it up and hit the power button? Is there softwre on the mother board that will start the unit running??

A new Hard drive will not be Mac-formatted, so you will have to do that first. A copy of Disk Utility to do the job is also on the 10.6 Installer/Utilities DVD.
Boot to the installer DVD, but do not Install. Answer only the "what language" question, and wait a quarter minute for the menuBar to be drawn. Choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu that appears.
Select the Hardware_name of the new Drive. Partition, one partition, ( Options ), GUID partition table. Name the partition: MacIntosh HD and choose Format: Mac OS X Extended (journaled). It will complete in a minute or two, as it only rewrite the Directory area.
If you wish to shake out your drive, you can erase it and Security Erase, Zero all data, one pass. But this takes HOURS.

What are the steps if; the disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved

I'm to install windows XP software, and I can partition the disk. If state, "The disk cannot be partitioned because some files canot be moved." What are the steps to complete partition to install windows XP?

Ok what happens with Bootcamp is it needs to carve out a contiguous free space at the bottom of your hard drive.
If it can't do that then it can't make the partition.
What has happened is there are some files down in closer in the bottom part of the drive, this occurs if you've had a hard drive nearly full, performed a software update, installed programs and then removed some files leaving parts and large empty spaces.
So what to do to fix this?
Well your going to have to learn how to clone your OS X boot partition, with all your programs and files to a external drive, which you can then hold the option key and boot from it.
Then you run Disk Utility from the clone, erase the OS X partition on the internal drive and clone everything right back.
This will place everything in order, move everything up and nice and compact at the top of the drive, which will allow you to make a BootCamp partition as big as you have room for.
It will also make your comptuer perform a bit faster too.
Cloning back and forth is rather safe, because you always have a hold option key bootable clone, either on the internal drive or the external drive, your computer will work from either.
What you don't want to use is Defrag software, that moves things around while the computer is running and messes things up quite a bit and really doesn't optimize as well or as safely as a clone.
In fact I just assisted a person who did just that and royally messed up their machine, requiring a complete rebuild of everything.
So read through this thread of mine and grasp things and you'll be cloning your boot drive in no time.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16276201#16276201
Remember that cloning can't clone Filevaulted drives or Bootcamp partitions, also it only (at this time) clones the OS X partition, which for Snow Leopard is the whole drive usually (minus Bootcamp partition.)
However if your on Lion, Carbon Copy Cloner doesn't quite yet clone the hidden Lion Recovery Partition, so when you clone you won't have it on the external drive but the computer will boot off the external drive just fine without it.
So when you go to erase the Lion internal drive, you need to erase only the OS X Lion Partition not the entire drive before reverse cloning.
You should make a Lion Recovery USB if you have Lion, as only through Lion Recvoery can you reinstall Lion now. Instrucitons are in my thread.
The way you can tell if your selecting a partition or a entire drive in Disk Utility is how far left it is.
The far left are devices and the slightly indented items are partitions or media using that device.
Good Luck

I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

If you want to be able to view, edit and export from Lightroom you can move the files using your computer OS (explorer or finder) and update the folder location by right-clicking on the folder name in the LR Library. See fig 8 at the attached link:
http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm
This will work when the thumb drive is connected.
If you really have no need to keep these files off-line in LR then simply move the files, select all the thumbnails in the LR Library and hit delete. Then choose remove.

Moving Adobe Acrobat XI Pro to a new hard drive

I have an installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro program I use very often on my desktop computer. I installed it with a download install. I am about to transfer to using a new desktop computer and trying to figure out how to transfer the program to my new desktop hard drive without having to pay for it again. Any ideas on how I can transfer it?

Copy the download to the new computer and install. If you are not going to use the old computer any longer, you should deactivate the installation of Acrobat on that system. You are allowed 2 installs with your license for your personal use.

I have installed adobe acrobat XI pro, now when i want to run it, i give in the serial number, but they keep saying " we are unable to validate this serial number for Acrobat XI Pro. please contact customer support."

how can i run the adobe acrobat?

I have my folio ready to go, I think I need pro edition, what are the steps to publish?

So I've got my publication ready to go and things are a bit hazy of how I go from: "Cool publication on my Adobe Content Viewer" to "User downloads my app and can then access my publications monthly."
I'm pretty sure I need pro edition, when I called Adobe tells I was told I would need to speak to a reseller. That's confusing as you can buy pro edition straight on the Adobe website.
How many downloads does that give you?
What's the difference between monthly and annual subscription?
Do I need to do something with the Apple App Store or is that all handled when you buy pro edition?
This part of the process has been a bit confusing.
Forgive me ignorant questions if all of this is explained somewhere but I couldn't find it and I couldn't get the Adobe 800 number to answer my Qs.
Thanks for your help in advance.

http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-publishing-suite-family/buying-guide-pricing.html
The $500/mo fee is for access to the system. You also have to purchase downloads in advance. 5,000 "free" downloads are included with your first yearly subscription. 250 "free" downloads are included with each monthly subscription you buy. Once you've used all your "free" downloads you must purchase more downloads at .30 per folio download and you must buy them in lots of at least 10,000 at a time. The professional level also includes access to "Gold" tech support which is far more helpful than the sales people.
These guides will take you through the process for iOS and Android. There also step-by-step PDF guides for iOS publishing linked in the HTML guide below.

What are the steps to move Webtools database to a different drive

The current drive is running out of space for our web tools live database so I am planning to transfer it to another drive which has sufficient space.
It would be helpful if any one can suggest the safer way and steps how to move the DB to another drive with out any problem since the site is live please?
Mohan
Edited by: Mohanakrishnan T on Mar 13, 2008 10:32 AM

Hi Martin,
Thanks for this!
To move the database to a different drive, Can I do the following?
1. Close the webshop at a appropriate time for a few minutes.
2. Stop IIS, Sync Manager etc etc that may access the web tools database.
3. Backup the WebShop database.
4. Drop the WebShop database.
5. Then Restore the WebShop database. When doing this configure the database and transaction logs (.mdf and .ldf) to be placed in the F: drive.
6. Now start the sync manager, IIS etc.
As my Colleague have moved SAP B1 databases using the above procedure. So can I assume Webtools database should be no different.
We have not tried the detach and attach procedure as of now

What are the steps to install Windows 8.1 on my Macbook Pro w/retina using VMware?

I have never attempted anything like this so I'm being (overly) cautious. I already have vmware installed. Do I need Windows 7? 8.1? 32 or 64 bit? SO many questions and I can't find the answers on Windows or vmware's sites.

There are 2 ways to use Windows with Fusion. You can either install it directly as a Virtual Machine, or you can install it as a Boot Camp parttion and you will have the option of using it with Fusion or booting directy into Windows. I prefer to do it the latter way.
If you install Windows within Fusion directly once you open Fusion
1. Select "New" from the File menu.
2. Double Click on Install from Disk or Image
3. If your using a DVD it will show in the next Window, or if you are using an ISO click on "Use another disc image..." and locate the image
4, Click Continue and then follow the prompts through installation.
If you want to Install Windows via Bootcamp, you should use the Bootcamp assistant. You will need the Windows DVD or disc image, and an 8GB flash drive. Just run the assistant and follow the prompts. Once Windows is installed, run Fusion and then:
1. Select "New" from the File menu.
2. Click on More Options...
3. Click on Install from Boot Camp
4. Click Continue and then follow the prompts to setup your Boot Camp partition to be used in Fusion.

What are the steps to rendering large dimensions in AI?

Hi,
What is the ideal way to render a file in say as big as 3500x7000 px in AI? This image when exported will be used for print.
I was thinking of opening a document that size and working on it but AI gets real choppy and during export it takes forever.
What's the best way to export it out as 3500x7000 ?
Thanks
(NOTE: the printshop doesn't want to scale it,they want the final file to be in the size you want it printed out)

Yes, of course. Both in preferences and in scaling. I can get an innerglow effect if scaled to 3500x7000 only that it is just barely enough to even see it. While on a smaller dimension the effects are more prominent.
I've tried increasing the dpi to 300 for a 350x800px and then scaling it to 3500x7000px and still nothing, worse AI errors out. I increase it to more than 300 and still errors out.
Ive been reading afew things about scaling strokes and effects online and people say since it's a raster effect it doesn't scale well and has a limitation to scaling. Is this true? If so what can i do to use these effects so i can scale.? Someone mentioned using InDesign to scale it so it retains the effects and strokes even on large dimensions. Im competely confused now. I need to use InDesign now so i can get my effects scaled? or can illustrator do this on it's own?

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro too large for a bundle?

KMDF Driver. What are the recommended limits for buffer size when calling WdfCommonBufferCreate

Hi,
I have a customer who wants to really stress-test his PCIe hardware. His idea is to declare two 8 GB buffers alternately filled by application software and fetched by scatter/gather DMA in the hardware (Transfer to PCIe card). If I calculate this through,
this is a maximum of 2M scatter/gather elements per buffer or 32 MByte, assuming S/G element is 16 bytes. i.e. 64 MByte logically contiguous memory as a common buffer for storing the S/G lists. The test system will have plenty of memory, 32 G upwards.
Still don't think I am likely to get a 64MByte common buffer from the system or even two disjunct 32 Mbyte buffers. If I look at poolmon on my server, the current size for NP is only 86M
So I expect the driver will have to handle multiple calls to EvtProgramDma, each covering just part of the 8G to be transferred.
Still I have two questions:
1) Are there any recommendations, house numbers from experience etc. regarding what is a usable maximum size I can reliably get for a common buffer with a call to WdfCommonBufferCreate (percentage of NP pool?, absolute number? ...). The common buffer is
for storing the S/G elements for the HW DMA controller
2) If I just declare a huge array of SCATTER_GATHER_ELEMENT[4M] or 2x huge arrays SCATTER_GATHER_ELEMENT[2M] in the device context (to be managed later by WdfMemoryCreatePreallocated() etc.) , will windows refuse to load the driver because the driver footprint
is too large?
We are talking about Windows 7/x64
Thanks,
Charles

Don,
thanks for your reply. The card is always physically present in the test system which means I could load the driver at boot time, but it would have to be after PCIe enumeration of course.
So far I have always managed to avoid writing a boot-start driver, my main objection being for "purist" reasons. I understand the MS documentation to mean that boot-start is really only intended for devices that are required to boot the system
(disk, console, keyboard, maybe network ....). I am aware of the advantage of boot-start though, a much higher probability of getting contiguous memory in larger chunks. This driver however is definitely not relevant for system start. The add-in card is essentially
a high performance source of test data and only runs when a SW application has been started.
The card does have high performance scatter/gather DMA support also 64-bit addressing capability.
I do wish Microsoft would issue some guidelines regarding realistic sizing of common buffers, it would make my discussion easier. Yes, I could write a test driver and measure it out but I don't really have time for that. Microsoft surely have test/application
teams for figuring these things out.
