Academic version 3 question

how many times can you install the academic version of fcp 3 with the same serial numbers. its not working now and i think it may be because its been installed to the max. anyone know?

I would suggest you call the Applestore and order FCP 5.1. When three was written, os10 didn't even have a big cat name yet. I've been told that there are problems with it and 10.4.8
You should be aware that multiple installs on different machines is very illegal and apple can fall all over you if it wants to. Posting such info on Apple's website is just plain stupid. But hey, whatever.

Questions about going from Trial Version to Academic Version?

1.) I'm using a trial version of LR and adding keywords through it. I'm planning to purchase the Academic version with the next few weeks. I'm assuming that everything I do with the trial version will also open up in the Academic version? All my keywording, etc.
2.) I am starting with Lightroom on my Macbook Pro notebook with the trial account and am tagging images, and want to move all the images later to my desktop Macpro computer when I purchase the academic version of LR. Is this a bad idea for any reason? Will I be able to easily transfer everything without LR getting confused for any reason?
Thanks.

Changes made in Lightroom such as keywords still need to be written out to the files if they are visible in other applications as Lightroom is a database that contains changes in a non-destrcutive manner. You can do this by turning on Autowrite to Xmp in Catalog Settings or by selecting all your files and ctrl/cmd-s (the usual save settings. Lightroom does NOT contain image files, they stay where they are on your HD and does NOT back up the image files. A Lightroom back up only backs up the Catalog file itself.
If you stop using Lightroom development changes would only be visisble in ACR, to see them in other applications you would need to export the files as Tiffs, etc which will contain the changes made. This would be just the same if you used Canon's DPP, nothing else can read changes.

Is it possible to upgrade from an Academic version of Logic 7.1?

I just purchased a new mac 8-core, went on installing Logic studio upgrade, but when it asks for the xskey it says 'this xskey is not elegible, please see upgrade requirements'. i've been using that key for many years and I don't understand whuy it's not working...Could anyone help me, please? I can't even find a support mail where to send my question to...

If it's an academic version, or a not-for-resale version, then these are not upgradable - ie, to move to the next full version of Logic, you can't just buy the upgrade, you have to buy the full version.
It's common knowledge that Academic versions of Apple's ProApps are not upgradable.
If in doubt, contact Apple.

How do I install Photoshop 6 on MacBook (Windows & Academic version)

I have been attempting to install Adobe Photoshop 6, made for Windows and academic version. The Mac system always asks me "which application to open this stuff with?" I don't really have an answer to that question. I've discovered a mysterious and cranky program named Disk Utility, in Applications/Utilities. I just am so ignorant about this. (I am a new Mac user, and a multi-media student and artist). A big reason why I bought this laptop, was so that I could do much artistic and photographic work with this thing! I've seen these things called "DMG" files. What the heck is that? Very frustrated! Any help from a knowledgeable Mac person, (knowing Adobe would be a plus!) would be VASTLY appreciated

You need to buy a Mac-Version off Adobe Photoshop!
http://www.adobe.com/products/adobesupportsOSX.html
Maybe you might also consider to start using a newer version off Photoshop!
It is not possible to run Windows applications on a Mac and vise versa!
The .dmg files are image files! Just like a .iso file on a PC. Most of the applications are packaged in these images. By double clinking on them OSX will mount them on your desktop. Then you can drag-and-drop the application to the Application folder on the Macintosh HD to install them. After installing you can unmount the image and delete the .dmg file. You can see them like virtual installation disk's! Disk Utility is just the application which handles the mounting and unmounting off the .dmg file's!
Hopefully this is helpfull or solved your problem. Consider rewarding some points!

Logic pro 7 academic version upgrade

I think this question has been asked multiple times in the previous posts so sorry if that is true. I was wondering if I could update my logic pro 7 academic version to logic pro 8? It says on the box that academic versions are not eligible for upgrades so I'm holding off from buying the upgrade to logic pro 8. So do I have to buy the whole complete logic pro 8 package?
Bye for now

Here is my story... I bought Logic Pro 7 Academic at the beginning of '05 when it was still 500 dls. Later I bough the update to 7.2. for 50 dls. Last week I went to the Apple store and bought the Logic Pro 8 upgrade for 200 dls because the sales rep told me I could upgrade from the academic version. I don't know what to do with the upgrade I bought now that I know I can't use it, plus I already opened the box. With all the money invested in this software Apple should get me a retail copy of LP8 for free! (in my dreams)...

Upgrading from Academic version to Regular versions

I am a student right now and I am taking a class to learn how to use my new DSLR. I will probably never be a professional photographer but plan on avidly pursuing this hobby. I was thinking of purchasing an academic version of Photoshop CS3.
My question is:
When a new version of photoshop comes out (for example CS4) will I be able to purchase the upgrade version if I own the academic version of cs3 or will I have to purchase the full version?
Or in other words are the academic versions upgradable?
I spent alot of time on the adobe web site trying to find an answer but it just sends you in circles and circles without ever answering any questions. frusterating really. I could not even locate an e-mail address of anyone to answer a question.

> Or in other words are the academic versions upgradable?
Yes. CS4, BTW, is right around the corner. You can find out all about it

Academic Version After Graduation

Hello,
Just a quick question that I could not find the answer for anywhere else. I believe I already know the answer but I just want to make sure.
I purchased the Academic version of Final Cut Studio during my sophomore year of college for use in student films. I am graduating this spring and plan to start a production company part-time. Do I need to purchase a Commercial version of Final Cut Studio to use when I charge clients for work? (Another way to ask that is "Can I use my Academic version of Final Cut Studio for use with client projects?")
I know I cannot upgrade my Academic version to the Commercial version and have to buy it at the full retail price. I assume that I would need to buy the Commercial version before I can start charging clients, but I want to make sure.
If anyone knows the answer please enlighten me, thanks!

I don't recall anything in the licensing agreement of the last few versions that prohibits the licensee from earning money with the software.

Academic Version Upgrade

We own a business, and I have a question of legality.
We have an Academic version of MacroMedia Studio MX. We want to know if we are able to use that Academic version to upgrade into the Adobe CS3 Design Premium non-academic version. Again, this would be for commercial use -
Will Adobe even let us activate the upgrade of CS3 DP off of an academic version of Studio MX?

Here is my story... I bought Logic Pro 7 Academic at the beginning of '05 when it was still 500 dls. Later I bough the update to 7.2. for 50 dls.

Is it OK to sell my academic version of CS5 Production Premium? May I give it away for free?

Hello,
I bought this while attending classes on Premiere Pro at the local college and am still attending there.
I would now like to work with CS5.5 because of some of the cool improvements and intend to buy a new copy at the campus bookstore.
I want to play by the book. I have a question and do not know the answer.
May I sell my old copy? May I give it away?
Thanks!
ALSO, IS IT POSSIBLE TO MERELY UPGRADE TO CS5.5 FROM THIS ACADEMIC VERSION?
Clueless in San Francisco

Matt (aka Clueless in San Francisco),
I'll answer your last question first. Yes, you may upgrade from the academic version of Production Premium CS5 to the full commercial version of Production Premium CS5.5. Please call Adobe Customer Support who can assist you in making this purchase. Note that there are no upgrades from one academic version to the next given the exceptionally low price of these academic versions to start with.
Whereas you may sell / transfer the license for non-academic / student versions of Adobe products, under no circumstances can you sell or transfer licenses for academic / student versions.
Also, once you upgrade any version of an Adobe product, whether from one version to the next or from academic / student to full commercial version, the license for the old software effectively no longer exists other than that you may continue to use the older software on the same system that you have installed the newer version as a means of transitioning to the newer version.

Determining Academic Version of FCE HD 3.0

Hello/ Bonjour,
First I want to compliment you on this informative forum.
After reading through about 30 pages of posts with answers, I have learned that the copy of FCE HD (ver. 3.0) that I found “un-opened” at my school will not work on my one-year-old 24-inch iMac (2.66 GhZ Intel Core 2 Duo; 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3), which is running Snow Leopard (10.6.3). So I plan to purchase FCE 4.
Here are my questions:
How can I determine whether or not this is an academic version with not upgrade path or a full commercial version for which I can purchase the upgrade to FCE 4? (The install DVD is labeled Final Cut Express HD Install: Version 3.0; and the labels with serial numbers at the bottom of the “Installing Your Software” pamphlet say FINAL CUT EXPRESS HD RETAIL).
Will I be able to use the 2 LiveType Data discs from this older version with the newer version of LiveType that will come with FCE 4?
Since the iMac has only one Firewire port, which will be in use to capture video from my Canon GL2, what will be my best strategy for managing projects; archived content; and my scratch disk needs? I was hoping to keep everything on an external drive, but this will need to be a USB drive. I have about 520 GB available on my 640 GB drive.
Thanks in advance.

The academic should have a label on the box (same for Non For Resale version-NFR).
Will I be able to use the 2 LiveType Data discs from this older version with the newer version of LiveType that will come with FCE 4?
Yes. Run the livetype install from the FCE 3.0 disk. The current LT app is the same as this one and you'll get the full content.

You can run FCE and capture on the internal but it's far better to use a dedicated external for video storage. You can daisychain the camcorder to the firewire on the external. Some Canon cameras have problem with daisychaining. If, so, capture on the internal and move capture files to the external.
Thanks in advance.

Final Cut Studio 2 (Academic Version)

I am a teacher and we have ordered and received 4 Final Cut Studio 2 packages. It came to us as the academic version. I know you cannot get upgrade to future Final Cut Studio packages, but is that the only difference?
Does it have all of the other features that regular Final Cut Studio has?
Thanks in Advance

Does it have all of the other features that regular Final Cut Studio has?
yes.

I'm trying to upgrade 9.0 academic version to 9.1.7 to use on a new MacBook pro. When I try to do incremental upgrades to 9.0.1 or 9.0. it says I don't need them. When I try to upgrade to 9.1.7 it says there is no version eligible to upgrade.

I'm trying to upgrade Logoc Pro 9.0 academic version to 9.1.7 to use on a new MacBook pro. When I try to do incremental upgrades to 9.0.1 or 9.0.2 it says I don't need them. When I try to upgrade to 9.1.7 it says there is no version eligible to upgrade. This all on the older MacBook currentlu running 9.0. But I need to upgrade to 9.1.7 to transfer it over tp the new MacBook w/ Retina display.

I think I just got it. I had the actual Logic Pro.app in a folder called Logic Pro inside the applications folder. When I moved the actual app out of the folder and into applications it worked. I am in the process of updating now. However it seems a little strange because that's how it installed from the discs - into a folder named Logic Pro within the applications folder. I would never have figured that out on my own. So thanks for those who posted solutions to other users similar requests.
