Acrobat 9 transfer from older computer to newly purchased computer

I am trying to transfer Acrobat 9, which I downloaded for the initial installation, to a new computer I just purchased. Adobe no longer has a link for downloading anything older than Acrobat 10. What would be the best way to transfer the application betweeen machines?

As long as you have the license key, you might be able to use the download process described in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1061905. A quicker option is to copy the download that you should have on the old computer. You should always backup such downloaded software. Almost no companies maintain indefinite archives of such.

  • I previously downloaded Acrobat Pro on an older computer. I have a new computer now. As I still have the subscription, how do I transfer to my new computer?

    How do I transfer acrobat pro to my new computer?

    Cloud subscriptions do not need serial numbers as far as I know, but if you mean you purchased a "permanent license" it does and it should be registered under the Adobe account that you purchased it at this link.

    Next to your product name is a right-pointing triangle, click on it and you will see your serial number.

  • How do you move adobe acrobat XI pro from one computer to another?

    how do you move adobe acrobat XI standard pro from one computer to another?

    Hi jeszamom,
    You'll need either the installation media (if you bought from a retailer), or a downloaded installer. If you don't have the CD, you can download Acrobat from this links in this document: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
    It's OK to keep it on the other computer; your license allows you to install it on up to two computers. But, if you'd like you can deactivate it on that old computer, which would free up that activation for use on yet another computer. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe
    You'll need your serial number to activate on the new computer.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • Transfer from older (2006) imac to newer (2011) macbook pro

    I have 2006 imac running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). I just bought a 2011 Mac Book Pro running Mavericks.
    Can I use the normal transfer procedure (firewire) to transfer from the older to the newer. The newer already has applications installed.

  • Transfer from old computer (to and from iPhoto 08')

    So I want to transfer my old computer's iPhoto Library (which is '08) to my new computer with ilife '08. How do I do this so I don't lose my events and such? I don't want to use the migration assistant when transfering. I could use target disk mode on my old computer, but I am not sure how to import that old computer's iphoto library into the new computer's iphoto library. Thank You.

    CommanderK423:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First rename the iPhoto library package on the old computer and then copy the entire iPhoto library package to the Pictures folder of the new Mac. Thendownload and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. That will insure the ownership and permissions is set correctly for the new owner.
    Now download and run the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will let you merge the two libraries while keeping the keywords, comments, titles and albums of both. It's the best option to do that. There is a free way to get the events from one library into the other and keep the comments, titles and keywords but it involves exporting each event from one library to a folder with the same name as the event and using the Include titles and keyword option of the export. Then importing those folders into the destination library. It can be done but is a lot of work.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Moving Itunes from older computer to new computer

    I have a new computer and hoped to copy my itunes library from the old computer to the new one. I have copied successfully most of my music via an external/backup hard drive. However, I cannot find any of the my purchased music (itunes)that copied over. Also, is there a way to copy playlists?

    How to Copy and Move (Clone) your iTunes Library from One Computer to Another – or Archive Prior to a PC Re-Image or Reformat
    This is the conceptual framework with related and important links. Apply and adapt it to your specific situation and equipment resources.
    The safest, quickest, and most optimal method to move your Library to a new computer is to actually clone the entire ‘iTunes’ folder (directory) structure, rather than just copying just the song files. By copying the entire ‘iTunes’ folder and all sub-folders, you capture not only the music files, but the all-important ‘iTunes Library.itl’ database file (usually located in the ‘iTunes’ folder), which contains all the data about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). See: What are the iTunes Library files?
    Install iTunes on the new computer. Then go back to your old computer and move (copy) the "iTunes" folder which usually resides inside your "…\My Documents\My Music" folder from the old computer to the exact same place (both Drive Letter and complete Path) on the new computer. When you open iTunes on the new computer it will look and behave exactly the same way it did on the old, Play Counts, Ratings, Comments and all!
    NOTE: It is usually safer moving files between computers with the same version of iTunes!!
    iTunes Files to Copy and Move to your New PC
    1) All music files in their current folder structure (usually located in and under the ‘iTunes Music’ folder)
    2) The Library database file: ‘iTunes Library.itl’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
    3) The Library XML file: ‘iTunes Music Library.xml’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
    4) Any XML playlist files you created for Playlist retention
    5) The two iTunes.pref files (optional)
    -- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    -- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref
    6) The XML file of Ratings, Play Counts and Last Played attributes saved from the main Library and created by Otto’s SaveRatings script (also optional, but recommended):
    “Download this: http://ottodestruct.com/itunes/SaveRatings.zip . It's a program, just run it like any other program. Run it on the machine where you're copying the info from BEFORE you move the files to the new machine. Click the "Save Ratings" button and it'll create a ratings.xml file. Now when you move the files, move the program and this file as well. Then after you make your new iTunes library, run it again and click the "Restore Ratings" button. Voila, all your information is back in the Library. Well, most of it anyway, it's not perfect. It'll tell you what songs it couldn't figure out though, and there's usually not very many.”

  • Possible to transfer Acrobat 8 Professional from one computer to another after buying & downloading

    I haven't purchased Acrobat 8 Professional yet, but really want to. The problem is that I will soon be switching computers to get a new operating system. Will I be able to somehow transfer Acrobat 8 from my soon-to-be defunct computer to the newer one without paying for the program again? It's $499! Any advice/help/suggestions urgently needed and highly appreciated asap.

    If you are downloading software (particularly when you pay for it), you should ALWAYS burn a copy of it to CD or other backup. Maybe more than 1 CD (folks are finding that CDs actually don't last any better than floppies in some cases). Then if you ever have to reinstall or repair, you have the software. Be sure to keep the key when you purchase the product also. With Adobe products, it is a good idea to register the product with Adobe. In that case they will talk to you if something gets messed up and you need a new copy. Otherwise they don't know you from anyone else (or Adam as the saying goes).

  • Trouble with transfer from older LR and machine to LR5 on a newer computer

    I have used LR1 for several years on an ancient Mac G4 so not a beginner but didn't find anyplace else to post a question.  If anyone cares to redirect me to the right place, I welcome that.
    The library module has always been a mystery, I've always been groping in the dark.  In spite of that, I've processed a few thousand raw files and have always been comfortable with adding metadata, and working in the develop module, which is all that I need.
    I have just acquired a fairly new MacPro, and downloaded a trial version of LR5.  But making the transition to the new machine is proving to be a barrier.  I think the issue has to do with LR5 not finding the correct path to the actual images, and I don't know enough to help it do that as efficiently as it could probably be accomplished. 
    Here's what I've done without trouble:
    1.  On the G4, made a copy of my LR catalog, and gave it a distinct name.
    2.  Formatted a new large HDD on the MacPro dedicated for image files (not the boot disk).
    3.  Copied my image files from the G4 to the new HDD in the MacPro.
    4.  Downloaded the LR5 trial version.
    5.  Moved the renamed LR catalog from the G4 to the Mac Pro.
    6.  Opened the catalog with LR5 on the MacPro and selected Library module.
    LR5 had problems finding the right path to the images, as indicated by the icon shown in the grid on the upper right corner of the thumbnails - and by the absence of actual images which were instead just empty squares.  LR did properly show the HDDs on the MacPro, both the boot disk and the second disk dedicated to images, but the image folders were not listed within the one dedicated to these new images, even though that's where they were saved.  Farther down on the left panel LR5 showed my original jumble of folders, but listed them as being still located in the old HDD, as indicated by the name of that volume.  And of course there were the question marks, which I have grown to know and....uh, tolerate.
    So the LR needed to know how to find the correct path. I didn't know how to direct it, and a LR savvy friend also was stumped also.  So I experimented.  Unsuccessfully.
    I should explain what I mean by the "jumble" of folders:  On my G4 Mac, the actual heirarchy of folders from my hard drive never appeared in LR, it was just a list arranged alphabetically.  That was inconvenient, but I didn't know why that was happening and didn't know how to fix it. 
    I found that I was able to help LR5 locate the images by clicking the exclamation point icon, and that brought in the images with all the metadata and develop settings.  But I was only able to do that with one folder at a time, and given the number of folders, that was going to be a long and very tedious project.  I was sure there had to be a better way.
    I made some progress using the contextual menu to "update folder location" but again that was just as tedious to do, it was working only one folder at a time. 
    I then selected one folder and clicked "synchronize folder" which located a much larger group of images and added them where they needed to be in the left panel within the correct new volume.  The bonus was that the proper folder heirarchy was included.  However that process did not bring along the metadata, ie, keywords and previous develop module settings, and that was a deal breaker, I don't want to lose that metadata in the transfer, and I'm sure I don't have to, I know LR is smarter than that.  
    My original image files, and the original catalog, are all still backed up on my old computer, so nothing is lost, it's just not being transferred properly. 
    What is the best choice now?  I have no problem with starting over with LR5 - deleting the renamed catalog and making another copy  on the old machine, moving it to the MacPro, and working with that.   If I do, how do I help LR5 find the right path to my existing images with metadata and develop settings, without the laborious process of doing it for every folder?
    I'll be very grateful for any and all advice, thanks,
    Gary

    Jon,
    What Julianne said at first about re-linking made perfect sense and I followed it easily, had actually already been there.  But in my situation now, it didn't have any effect.  The directory of folders which had already been added were still just as they were, and the outstanding balance are not in the desired position.  And the folders which had been brought in earlier today when I clicked "synchronize folder", were still missing all the metadata.
    Maybe this means I need to start over, and I'm fine about doing that that, but I don't know what it takes to accomplish that.  I'm concerned now that any changes I make out of guesswork could only make the problem harder to resolve.  It just feels to me like something I did at the beginning just wasn't right, and now it's a tangle.
    Can you advise?
    Thanks,
    Gary

  • How to transfer from old computer (Photo Album) to new computer (Elements)?

    For Christmas I'm getting my wife a new version of Adobe and a new computer, as well.  She has 12,000 photos with tags in Adobe Photo Album 1.0 on the old computer.  I'm installing Adobe Elements 8 on the new computer.  How do I transfer the photos with tags?  Thanks for any advice.

    I recommend that you first install PSE 8 on the old computer and convert the PSA 1 catalog to PSE 8.  Then once PSE 8 is running correctly, you can use the backup/restore method to move the catalog and photos to the new computer.  Though it is sometimes possible to do it in the other order, or to do the move and conversion in one step, I strongly recommend not doing that -- it will make the troubleshooting much harder.
    Though Adobe claims to support conversion of catalog from previous version to PSE 8, many people with PSA and older versions of PSE have experienced problems.  See this FAQ for details on how to deal with common issues that might arise:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Problems_converting_catalo gs
    See this FAQ for how to use the backup/restore method to move your PSE 8 catalog to the new computer:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Move_your_photos_1
    As you can probably infer by now, it's very likely you'll run into issues, so expect to spend many, many hours (unfortunately).

  • Moving Acrobat 11 license from old computer to new

    I have Adobe Acrobat 11, purchased in March 2013.  My computer was damaged and I had to buy a new one.  Can I transfer the license from Acrobat 11 from the old computer to the new one?

    You don't have to transfer it.  But you can deactivate it on the old machine if it is still possible so that you retain the option for a second machine activation.
    Adobe allows you to install/activate on two machines, so you can just install on the new machine as long as you have the second activation still available.
