Are Adobe licenses inter-changeable between windows and mac?

I have bought initially a Creative Suite for windows and now I'm considering changing to mac.
In the software license certificate I have a windows serial number and a mac serial number. Legally, can I use the same license, although with different serial numbers on a mac or windows computer? (Regarding the uninstallation of the windows version)
Thanks

  • Share iTunes libraries between Windows and MAC

    Hi all i've an wifi via "Base AirPort" i've an HD shared between MAC and Windows sistem via the BASE, the iTunes library that i've stored in the HD is non redable for iTunes on Windows because it need an *.itl file...
    How can i share an iTunes library between Windows and MAC???

    I would like to report back that after struggling for months to get Tune Ranger to work that it is complete rubbish. The first time I tried to sync my libraries (between an empty iTunes library and my existing one) it created duplicates all over the place in my library and generally made a huge mess of everything. The support person (who I suspect is the only person over there) gave me some guff about my id3 tags being corrupt but it was clear that every song that appeared in a playlist was getting duped. Once I fixed this (many weeks later) I tried a one way sync after fiddling with the preferences of Tune Ranger to try to make it work, but it simply wouldn't.
    I don't know if anyway has had success using TR where they are also trying to sync playlists, but if you have, I would certainly like to know what you settings are.

  • 2-way Trust Relationship between Windows and Mac Domain

    Hi guys I hope someone can help me.
    Just a quick explanation of what I am trying to do.
    I have an Xserve running OSX 10.5.8 server, which is the OD Master. On that server I’m running Kerio mail server. I have a Microsoft 2003 server running AD.
    The problem is I need to run BlackBerry Enterprise on the Windows server as the BlackBerry need active directory to work.
    Since I have both system already running, I do not want to destroy my open directory just to get the BlackBerry working.
    So what I have tried to do is create a 2-way Trust Relationship between the 2 domains, so the BlackBerry server will talk to the Kerio mail server.
    The trust relationship appears to create fine from the Windows server side, but I’m not able to retrieve LDAP information from the open directory server.
    The creation from the OSX server starts fine automated but then I had to finish it manually.
    Has anyone else here created a 2-way trust relationship between Windows and Mac’s before? Any help on how you did it would be appreciated. Thanks

    Have you checked on when the computer last checked in and changed the computer account password with the domain?  When a computer changes it's password, Active Directory will store only the current password and it does not expire.  The workstation
    will store both the current password and the previous password.  This for cases when you may restore Active Directory to a point before the computer password change.  
    To handle this, the workstation will try it's current password, then it's previous.
    If you're restoring the workstation to a previous point in time, you may be rolling the stored passwords back too far for Active Directory to accept.  I would only imagine this to be the case a handful of times if you're going back 1-2 days.
    Are you experiencing 100% failure?

  • HT204150 I have recently switched to the latest i-phone. my contacts are updated by i-cloud between phone and mac laptop.there are only about 720 contats showing on phone from app. 1250 on the computer. please advise how to correct phone

    I have recently switched to the latest i-phone. my contacts are updated by i-cloud between phone and mac laptop.there are only about 720 contats showing on phone from app. 1250 on the computer. please advise how to correct phone

    On the mac, only contacts in the "iCloud" section will sync to other devices.  Those in the "On my mac" section do not.  Could that be your problem?
    To test the icloud situation, log into icloud.com with your mac's safari and to to the contacts page.  What you see there is what icloud has received from mac and iphone. 

  • ITunes 9 - Using 'Home Sharing' between Windows and Mac libraries

    I have my main iTunes music library stored on my Windows 7 PC. It is currently around 200Gb in size, so pretty large.
    I want to be able to use 'Home Sharing' in iTunes 9 to access this library on my Macbook over my home wireless network.
    I don't, however, want to copy the music files themselves over to this laptop, but simply access the library over the network, and play them via either iTunes 9 or Front Row.
    I would appear that the Windows and Mac 'iTunes Library' xml files are incompatible. I can't 'Alias' the Windows library on the MacBook for this reason. Does 'Home Sharing' eliminate this problem? Is there a way of accessing the library on the Windows PC without copying all of the files over to the MacBook?
    I want to maintain a single library (which is often changing with new podcasts etc), rather than 2 libraries which I have to keep in sync.
    Does anybody have any ideas on this one? I'm sure I am not alone in having this problem.
    Here's hoping...:)

  • Missing files in catalog shared between Windows and Mac

    I switch between using Elements 12 on a Mac (Mountain Lion) and a Windows 7 machine while managing a common catalog.  The catalog and media are stored on an external USB 3.0 disk drive attached to whichever machine I am using to work.
    This setup works fine except that on computer #1, the Organizer “loses” media files computer #2 has worked with, and vice versa.  The problem seems to be in the way Elements stores the media file location.
    Example:
    My external catalog and media drive is named “JS” and assigned drive letter G: on the Windows machine.
    File “IMG_0310.JPG” is stored in directory “2007 08 18”.
    On the Windows machine the location seen in the Elements Organizer Information panel is “G:\2007 08 18\”.
    Using the Mac, Elements reports the file as missing, finds it, and changes the file location to “\Volumes\JS\2007 0818\”.
    Returning to the Windows machine, the problem repeats itself and corrects the file location to use Windows-style path names.
    This wouldn’t be so bad if Elements was faster reattaching missing files, but the search for the first few reconnects takes a very long time and the whole process grows longer the more work I did on the other machine.   This is a major annoyance and time drain.
    Elements documentation promotes the use of an external drive for sharing.  Someone else must have run into this same problem.  Is there a way to configure Elements to overcome the file location problem?
    Thanks!
    [edit]
    I realize PSE 12 is new and many are still on PSE 11.  Is anyone using PSE 11 experiencing this issue?

    Thank you for the response!
    Looking at volume_table there are indeed two entries for the external drive (rows 3 and 5):
    The Windows entry on row 3 shows the correct volume serial number in decimal as assigned when the drive was formatted.  The hex version is 7A85-0647.  The Mac entry on row 5 shows a serial number that doesn't make sense from a Windows or Mac perspective.
    This is interesting but I'm not sure what to do with this information.  It may not be a bug.  It would make sense from a development viewpoint to use the serial number to uniquely identify the drive and have separate entries for each OS tied together by that serial number, allowing the drive path to differ by OS.  Although, in this case the serial numbers do not match.  Maybe the Mac and Windows versions of PSE 12 are retrieving two different serial numbers and therefore do not see the drive as the being the same, which would be a bug.

  • I couldn't find the link for downloading or buying Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 for both Windows and Mac

    Hi,
    I have been looking for Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 but I could not find in any website. Could anyone provide with the downloading link.
    Thanks

    OK, so forget about CS3. Without a valid serial number, you cannot activate the trial version and Adobe no longer sells CS3.
    Any reason you're specifically trying to obtain CS3?
    You can purchase CS6 for a one time fee

  • PDF generated in iOS app opens iOS adobe but is blank in Windows and Mac adobe

    I generated a PDF in an iOS app called iThoughts and I am able to export directly to iOS Adobe, or e-mail the PDF.  When I export directly to Adobe the PDF opens fine in the Adobe iOS app, when I try to open the PDF on a windows machine or Mac machine the page is blank, all white.  When I click the preview on Gmail I see the PDF fine.  When I open the PDF in my mac preview desktop app it works fine.  I did try to save from export from preview and this did not work, same results.  When I open the PDF in iOS from the email it works fine also. The iThoughts generated PDF mind-map in this instance is very large.  When I generated a branch of the map it works fine.  If the map is smaller it works fine.  This is a single page PDF.  When I had notes on the same mind map the PDF was two pages and the only thing visible was page 2 with the notes on it, not map.  I am going to send the developer of the iThoughts app an e-mail but I thought this would be a better place since I can open the PDF in my iOS app but not on a desktop program.  I have done this with iOS 6 and now with iOS 7 with the same results.

    Thank you very much.  Is this the case for Adobe pro also? I am using Adobe Pro at work and it doesn't work either.
    Are there any work arounds to be able to view / print / open in Adobe pro to be able to use the search funciton?  That was my point of creating one map so we can search one page with all the settings as listed on the attached PDF.  I am glad, but seems odd I can view and search this document on my iPad iOS version of Adobe reader.  Thank you for this option at least.  I guess this will push getting more iPads at work, LOL.
    Thanks again for your time and I hope to hear of some work around to be able to search this larget page PDF besides cutting it into 2 pages.

  • Difference between Windows and Mac versions

    Could anyone tell me whether the files generated by the Mac version of In-design stricly identical to the *.indd and other files (templates, libraries) generated under Window? If not, what are the differences? Thanks in advance for any help.

    There is no significant difference, but they will not be bit-for-bit identical.
    For instance, the INDD file format records which version and platform of InDesign created the file, so that small piece of information will certainly differ. Also, historically, when Macs used non-Intel processors with different byte order, ID may have stored some numbers in reversed byte order. But since everything is Intel now, that's not an issue.
    In any case, there is 100% compatibility between both platforms. Mac ID can read Windows ID and vice versa.

  • What is the difference between Windows and Mac formating?

    Hello guys!
    My question is in subject, just wondering what is real difference and what kind of restrictions in usability i could expect?
    Thanks,
    Ivan

    Mac OS X uses a file system that it inherited from Mac OS called HFS Plus. HFS Plus is a metadata-rich and case preserving file system. Due to the Unix roots of Mac OS X, Unix permissions were added to HFS Plus. Later versions of HFS Plus added a journal to prevent corruption of the file system structure and introduced a number of optimizations to the allocation algorithms in an attempt to defragment files automatically without requiring an external defragmenter.
    Filenames can be up to 255 characters. HFS Plus uses Unicode to store filenames. On Mac OS X, the filetype can come from the Type code stored in file's metadata or the filename.
    HFS Plus has three kinds of links: Hard links, Symbolic links and Aliases. Aliases are designed to maintain a link to their original file even if they are moved or renamed.
    FAT32
    In order to overcome the volume size limit of FAT16, while still allowing DOS real-mode code to handle the format without unnecessarily reducing the available conventional memory, Microsoft decided to implement a newer generation of FAT, known as FAT32, with cluster counts held in a 32-bit field, of which 28 bits are currently used.
    In theory, this should support a total of approximately 268,435,438 (< 228) clusters, allowing for drive sizes in the range of 2 terabytes. However, due to limitations in Microsoft's scandisk utility, the FAT is not allowed to grow beyond 4,177,920 (< 222) clusters, placing the volume limit at 124.55 gigabytes, unless "scandisk" is not needed [3].
    FAT32 was introduced with Windows 95 OSR2, although reformatting was needed to use it, and DriveSpace 3 (the version that came with Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows 98) never supported it. Windows 98 introduced a utility to convert existing hard disks from FAT16 to FAT32 without loss of data. In the NT line, support for FAT32 arrived in Windows 2000.
    Windows 2000 and Windows XP can read and write to FAT32 filesystems of any size, but the format program on these platforms can only create FAT32 filesystems up to 32 GB. Thompson and Thompson (2003) write[4] that "Bizarrely, Microsoft states that this behavior is by design." Microsoft's knowledge base article 184006[3] indeed confirms the limitation and the by design statement, but gives no rationale or explanation. Peter Norton's opinion[5] is that "Microsoft has intentionally crippled the FAT32 file system."
    The maximum possible size for a file on a FAT32 volume is 4 GiB minus 1 B (232-1 bytes). For most users, this has become the most nagging limit of FAT32 as of 2005, since video capture and editing applications can easily exceed this limit, as can the system swap file.

  • Quality difference between Windows and Mac

    Well, that's the problem:
    The same song, (Skull and Crossbones by Klaus Badelt), played under my Mac partition or under my Windows partition is sounding different.
    I thought the speakers were broken, but it's not that. Under the Mac iTunes, it sounds horrible, it's distorted and compressed. Equalizer is set the same (Classical), the file is the same, same machine, same application (iTunes 7.6.2), everything is the same. Except the library size. Under Mac it's 13.4 GB, under Widnows only a 100 MB...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Neither version of iTunes will make jewel cases.

  • Migrate Collections between Win and Mac versions of Bridge

    Would like to know if it is possible to migrate Bridge collections between Windows and Mac machines.
    On the two respective main machines one or two of the the root folder names differ, but the subfolder structures are the same.
    In addition, both machines can access other resources from a common USB drive, so that any collections of images from that drive will have identical paths.
    Would like to avoid repeating the collection-building process if it is possible to migrate the data from one machine to another.
    Please let me know what is possible.

    You could just copy the photos from one machine
    to another and then let the cache build.  You have to make sure you export the XMP files along with the photo or you will lose edits and some info.
    If you can move them with Bridge this is the best bet to keep all the pieces together.  If you are using just central cache you will have to explore the option of "export xmp files"in one of the dropdown boxes.  Not at a computer with Bridge on it..

  • With Creative Cloud are you able to download apps to both Windows and Mac?

    I'm not sure whether on 1 subscription you can download to Windows and Mac, or whether you have to buy Creative Cloud for each of these individually??

  • Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed

    We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
    For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printing

    Hey CodeMonkey & Ross,
    Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
    Thanks guys,
    Lox
