Bought a new computer and it won't open old illustrator 9.0 program

I want to continue working in this program as it suits my needs.  However, I get various error messages when trying to access my old ai or eps files to work on.  One message states I'm out of RAM.  This is not at all possible.  Another says there is a runtime error...abnormal program termination.  Does anyone know how I can convert old files worked on in Windows XP to my new program in Windows 8?  Please help. 

Assuming you have tried the various compatibility modes, if your Windows 8 is the Pro version, you could try setting up a virtual machine running XP on which to run your Illustrator. No guarantees it will work, however.

    My old computer wouldnt let me authorize me to play my songs even though I submitted the password and Windows ID. Now I bought a new computer, and I cannot get my old songs back. What do I do?

    This can be resolved through a phone call to Apple, provided you can pass the verification process:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

  • I recently bought a new computer and downloaded itunes but when i try to sync it, someone else's apple i.d. shows up and i don't know the password.  I try to authorize my computer but it still won't let me

    I recently bought a new computer and downloaded itunes onto it.  When i sync my ipod it prompts me to authorize my computer
    with the purchases that i've made, but when i try to do so, my apple i.d. is not what shows up and so my ipod won't sync any of my songs or apps.  I have no idea who's username i'm seeing and i've never seen it before.  That's the only thing that is stopping my ipod to sync, a password that isn't mine!! I am beyond frustrated and don't know what else to do, if someone can please help me i would be so appreciative you have no idea.  Thank you so much

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • TS1967 I have just bought a new computer and downloaded latest version of itunes.  It has all installed fine, but when I sync my ipod, it shows all the songs but won't play any of the songs in that library.  Also, I can't add new files.

    I have just bought a new computer and downloaded the latest version of itunes.  It has all installed fine, but when I plug my ipod and sync it, the music library shows all the songs and videos that are on there, but won't let me play them.  Also, I can't add any new songs to the same library.  It saves them elsewhere. I have had the previous version on another computer and it worked just fine.  I have been online trying to find an answer but nothing.  Hope someone can help me. Thanks

    Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
    Your media is only where you put it.
    iOS devices are not backup devices.
    Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

  • I bought a new computer, and iTunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what i do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything, and I want all that on my laptop..

    I bought a new computer, and downloaded  iTunes, therefore  the new itunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what I do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything that my phone has on it, I just want it all moved to my laptop. Does that make sense? I could really use some help. I don't live with this desktop anymore so I need to be able to use my laptops itunes. Please help me. Thanks in advance!

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    Bought a new computer, and new ipod 160 GB. I went to sync all my music and it's telling me that the computer isn't authorized. I authorize it, by going to store and authorize this computer, and it still won't let me sync these songs

    Think you got to reboot or relaunch iTunes after the Authorization.
    but here is the Apple support Article on Authorization and sync to iPod

    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.

  • I bought a new computer and I am trying to update my iphone.

    I bought a new computer and I am trying to update my iphone. I have previously used my old computer to sync and update and now it says I'm going to lose all my apps if I update with my new computer.. How do I back up my apps from my phone to my new computer?

    You first copy the content from your old computer to your new computer (or restore a backup of data from the old computer to the new one), then if you sync you won't lose anything.
    If it is only apps you are concerned about you can connect the phone to iTunes on the new computer without syncing, then choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes file menu.

    I bought a new computer and downloaded my lightroom 4 to it. When I installed the program it asked for my serial number and I imputed it. Then it asked for my previous serial number from my original lightroom 3 purchase. Since I upgraded to lightroom 4 I don't have the serial number for the version 3. How do I get the serial number from my 3 version so I can activate my version 4 program

    If you have Lightroom 3 still installed, you can get it from there.
    If you don't and you have your box/disk, it should be on there.
    IF you don't have either of those,and you registered your software, you can log into your Adobe account and retrieve it there.
