Confused about how to install Lightroom 5

Hi There,
I have all my serials in 1Password and generally keep very good software records but while I have serials for Lightroom versions 1-4, I can't see anything for v5.
Is it possible that Lightroom 5 was an in-app upgrade or special upgrade that used the v4 serial number? I've found a lot of conflicting forum and blog posts so am not sure.
But even if I had the v5 serial, the serial number box doesn't appear as an option after installation (see attached) - the only option is to buy a new license?
Sorry for the dumb question - just not sure what's going on.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks for the reply,
I'm now a Creative Cloud user but have always had a separate licence for Lightroom - in fact, I've never been able update Lightroom via the CC interface and have always had to manage it manually because it was never installed via CC. If I go to apps from the CC menu, Lightroom is available to install so I assume CC knows it's licensed separately?
Now I'm trying to install it on another Mac without CC (and will use CC on the current Mac) so am looking for the serial - I've tried:
Logging in to my personal store account (clicked 'view all products')
Logging in my CC account (clicked 'view all products')
Logging in to the company volume licensing account
Searching for a .lrreg file
Manually checking ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Lightroom 5.0 Registration
But I don't see anything
Even though Lightroom is not installed via CC, when I try to view license info under the help menu, it just states that I'm signed in and displays my CC login. If I sign out of CC, I still can't find license info so I don't know if CC has somehow removed the license info?
Anyway, I normally keep very good records but we've noticed that after a move to a new email server, we're missing email - not sure what to do from here sorry.
Cheers

Confused about how to display a rectangle on JFrame

i'm a little confused about how to display a rectangle on a jframe.
I know there is a class called Rectangle. is there a way to use it to display a rectangle on a JFrame? i couldn't find a way to do that.
i found a way to display a rectangle in the internet:
CODE:
public class RectangleFrame extends JFrame {
    public RectangleFrame() {
        super("My Rectangle");
        setSize(300,400);
        setLocation(300,300);
        setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JButton button = new JButton("Button");
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        panel.add(button);
        getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        getContentPane().add(new Rect(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
        getContentPane().add(panel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
        setVisible(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new RectangleFrame();
public class Rect extends JComponent {
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        g.drawRect(50,50,200,200);
}is this the only way to do that? isn't there an easier way? do i have to write this new class Rect i wrote?
i don't really know how this Rect class i wrote works. could someone explain?
then another question: can i put a rectangle on a JPanel or do i have to add it directly onto the ContentPane as i did above?
i hope everything i asked is clear enough.
thanks for your effort.

How to install Lightroom and Photoshop Elements from my old pc to my new pc?

I have a new pc and want to install Lightroom 5.7 and Photoshop Elements 12 from my old pc to the new one.

For LR here is a useful link:
http://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-move-lightroom-to-new-computer/
There is also a video tutorial which covers moving a LR catalog to a new computer:
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-migrate-lr-to-an other-computer/
For Elements you can simply install the application and then set up the Elements Editor for external editing in the LR Library prefs. I’m assuming you won’t be using Oranizer as well as LR. That can lead to confusion and broken links unless you are very disciplined.
If you do intend to use Organizer the method is backup and restore, starting with an Organizer backup on the old PC.

*Really confused* on how to install Vista 64 using BC

OK, so I'm now proud owner of a "Harpertown" model Mac Pro Quad Core 2.8, and I want to install Windows Vista Ultimate x64 on it. I have read that you can definitiely install this Windows OS on this model of Mac.
I have three components here – I've installed and upgraded to 10.5.3, and I have a copy of Boot Camp Assistant 2.0 in my Utilities folder. I just picked up a Vista Ultimate x64 full install disc (don't have the x32 disc). And now I'm downloading Boot Camp Update 2.1 for Windows Vista 64.
The thing is, I remember reading that I needed the 2.1 update to have the right drivers to install x64. But the 2.1 update is an exe file, meaning I need to have Windows installed already to use it.
Now I'm really confused – can somebody explain to me (or point me to a web page that does this) how to install an x64 version of Vista using Boot Camp? Do I need anything else other than BC Assistant 2.0, BC Update 2.1 for Windows Vista 64, and the Vista x64 full-install disc?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

Hey, it worked!
I was worried that the installation wouldn't work unless I had the correct drivers in place before I even started, but I guess that wasn't the case.
For anybody who runs across this message in a future search, I recommend the the Boot Camp Installation pdf, which cleared up a lot of confusion for me:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/BootCampInstall-Setup.pdf
What I hadn't realized is that what's on the Mac side is Boot Camp Assistant and that Boot Camp proper is a Windows program. The Boot Camp 2.1 Update would be run after installing Boot Camp from the Leopard CD ("Step 3" in the above manual).
I really like Vista, BTW – its the first Windows OS where I actually like the look and feel of it ("look" and "feel" being one reason I generally stick with Mac OS), so thanks to Hatter for recommending it. Still sticking with Mac OS as my mainstay, but its really nice to have both.

You need to think in terms of Apple support, not Adobe (since you have a platform specific issue). It ain't hard to Google ya know? Try Googling "resetting OS X password" and you'll get the response you need...

Confusion about how JSP application compile

Hi,
I am develop a web application using JSP. The application includes many .jsp files and many JavaBeans files in order to accomplish multiple tasks. I feel confused that how all this jsp file and JavaBeans compile together. For say, if the user wants to create a new record, which is only one of all tasks, I assume that when user submit this request, the related jsp files and javaBeans instead of all jsp files and javaBeans, will load into memory and compile together into a servlet class, then according to the form data to do whatever they need to do to create a new record. When a request regarding another task come, another group of related jsp file and JavaBeans will compile to another servlet class to do the job and so on and so forth. Am I right about how they work? Or are all jsp files and javaBeans compile together instead of grouped by task into one servlet class? Which one is true?
Sincerely, jmling

I dunno - that statement seems misleading, if not just plain wrong.
JSP text files can be potentially grouped together - ie you use the include directive to include one JSP file inside another. Basically its just a "paste this file inside the first one before translating into a servlet".
But anything apart from <%@ include %> directives are not bundled together at this phase.
This is the way I see it happening (simplified)
- Process <%@include%> directives to get one large .jsp file
- The jsp file itself is translated into a servlet .java file
- The .java file is compiled into a class file
- The class file is run, and it generates HTML which is sent to the client
As part of this generation it may invoke other JSP pages through jsp:include / jsp:forward commands.
These are treated seperately - is you translate/compile each requested JSP page seperately.
All that the JSP page produces at the end of the day is an HTML file to send to the client.
If there is an image on the page, the generated HTML includes a tag for the image, but the JSP doesn't send the image itself (just like a static web page can contain an image)
In summary, the phrase in your quote "the files that make up the application are all translated together..." is misleading. The translation only applies to the particular jsp file requested, and any that it includes with the include directive.

Help!! how to install lightroom without D V D DRIVE?

? how do i install lightroom on my laptop that doesn't have a d v d drive ?

Download it.
The trial version (same as the real one) is https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom&promoid&promoid=D TEML or another link for PC version here http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5521 or Mac version here http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5520
Or if those links are wrong just Google "download Lightroom". As I say, I'm sure the trial version is the same as the purchase one.

How to install Lightroom 6?

Is it necessary to un-install previous LR version, LR4, before installing LR6? Or, will LR6 automatically deal with the previous version during installation?

Confused about how to use paint()

Hi, I have been working really hard to try to get the following program to work but I am really confused on how to use paint(). I do not have anyone to ask so I thought this forum could help. Anyways, here is my problem...
I am trying to recursively figure out the Sierpinski fractal. I cannot figure out if my math works or not because I do not know how to call the paint() recursively to draw my triangles.
Please have a look at the following code. Thank you!
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;
public class DrawTriangle extends Frame {
Point a = new Point(20,480),
 b = new Point(350,40),
 c = new Point(680,480),
 halfB,
 halfC,
 halfB2,
 halfC2,
 halfC3;
int width;
public DrawTriangle() {
 super("Sierpinski Fractal");
 addWindowListener( new WindowAdapter() {
 public void windowClosing( WindowEvent we ) {
 dispose();
 System.exit( 0 );
 setBackground( Color.white );
 setSize(700, 500);
 setVisible(true);
public void paint(Graphics g, Point a, Point b, Point c) {
 width = c.x - a.x;
 if (width < 6){return;}
 g.setColor( Color.GREEN );
 g.drawPolygon( new int[] { a.x, b.x, c.x }, new int[] { a.y, b.y, c.y }, 3 );
 halfC.x = c.x/2;
 halfC.y = c.y;
 halfB.y = b.y/2;
 halfB.x = b.x;
 halfB2.y = halfB.y + a.y;
 halfB2.x = a.x;
 halfC2.x = halfC.x + a.x;
 halfC2.y = a.y;
 halfC3.x = halfC.x/2 + a.x;
 halfC3.y = halfB2.y;
 paint(g, a, halfC, halfB);
 paint(g, halfC3, halfC, halfB);
 paint(g, halfC2, halfC, halfB);
public static void main(String[] args) {
 new DrawTriangle();

thanks jsalonen, your tip let me start working on the math to correct it.
I have a new problem now. My math is correct but I am having problems with the recursion. I can draw only the top , left , or right triangles. I cannot get them all to work together. See code and comments below.
Any ideas why I cant call all three of the paint()s toegther and have them work?
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;
public class DrawTriangle extends Frame {
Point a = new Point(20,480),
 b = new Point(350,40),
 c = new Point(680,480),
 halfA,
 halfB,
 halfC;
int width;
public DrawTriangle() {
 super("Sierpinski Fractal");
 addWindowListener( new WindowAdapter() {
 public void windowClosing( WindowEvent we ) {
 dispose();
 System.exit( 0 );
 setBackground( Color.white );
 setSize(700, 500);
 setVisible(true);
public void paint(Graphics g)
paint(g, a, b, c);
public void paint(Graphics g, Point a, Point b, Point c) {
 width = c.x - a.x;
 if (width < 6){return;}
 halfA = new Point((a.x+b.x)/2, (a.y+b.y)/2);
 halfB = new Point((a.x+c.x)/2, (a.y+c.y)/2);
 halfC = new Point((b.x+c.x)/2, (b.y+c.y)/2);
 g.setColor( Color.GREEN ); //draw left triangle in green
 g.drawPolygon( new int[] { a.x, halfA.x, halfB.x }, new int[] { a.y, halfA.y, halfB.y }, 3 );
 g.setColor( Color.RED ); //draw top triangle in red
 g.drawPolygon( new int[] { b.x, halfA.x, halfC.x }, new int[] { b.y, halfA.y, halfC.y }, 3 );
 g.setColor( Color.BLUE ); //draw right triangle in blue
 g.drawPolygon( new int[] { c.x, halfB.x, halfC.x }, new int[] { c.y, halfB.y, halfC.y }, 3 );
 /*If you were to comment our two of these paint() calls the one will work correctly alone.
 *But my problem is that they do not work together! */
 //g, left point, top point, right point
 paint(g, halfA, b, halfC); //top triangle
 paint(g, halfC, halfB, c); //right triangle
 paint(g, a, halfA, halfB); //left triangle
public static void main(String[] args) {
 new DrawTriangle();

How to install Lightroom from CC when Lr5 is already installed

Little help?
I have LR 5 (5.2) installed and have just joined the photographers deal. I have installed Ps no problem but have been told by 'Chat' that to install lightroom from the cc i first need to uninstall lightroom 5? Surely not? Do i need to re-import everything, redo all the previews, recreate all my collections?
Surely im missing something?
Thanks for any advice.

open lr5, click help>deactivate.
then click help>activate and use your cc adobe id to activate.
although, if you already purchased lr 5 outright, it doesn't make sense to do that.
on the other hand if you have lr 5 via a previous cc subscription you should have used the same adobe id for both cc purchases.

Where can i find the information about how to install eclipse IDE?

JUST AS THE TOPIC, THANKS

The Eclipse web site doesn't seem to have a "how to install this" document -
although I might have missed something...
For Windows, I have always unzipped the downloaded file and just fired up the
executable - ie it doesn't seem to need to be "installed". (If you need to you can set
the java runtime to be used and the location of startup.jar: but the former is only
a concern if you have multiple runtimes, and I've never needed to set the latter except
on Linux where Eclipse is started via a link in /usr/bin or whereever).

Confused about how to get link created by website

I am fallowing a video tutorial on YouTube about how to download a YouTube video as Mp3 file.Once the user typed a YouTube link into
texbox and clicked the download button The video file is supposed to be download . I think I am doing wrong something .I think .I am able to get textbox and button Id like this way
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
if (_browser.Document != null)
var elementById = _browser.Document.GetElementById("youtube-url");
if (elementById != null)
elementById.SetAttribute("value", textBox1.Text);
var htmlElement = _browser.Document.GetElementById("submit");
if (htmlElement != null)
htmlElement.InvokeMember("click");
status = true;
The problem once the video converted the web site offers a link to get the video.I need to get the adress written bold charcters.
How can I do it?
<a href="/get?video_id=KMU0tzLwhbE&ts_create=1423907396&r=NzguMTc5LjY3Ljg1&h2=4a594985c56edf3bd2da78222a79bdba&s=145591">Download</a>

this is the web site adress

Hi alak41,
From your code like following, since we don't know that the developer how to write the ConvetVideo event in YouTube MP3 website. Maybe you should better ask the website's publishers.
if (htmlElement != null)
htmlElement.InvokeMember("click");
In addition, here is a .NET library, that allows to download videos from YouTube and/or extract their audio track (currently only for flash videos).

How to install Lightroom on Creative Cloud?

Confusion about how object interact and are aware of each other

I have this java applet
Two of the classes it contains are the main class with the init method and a UI class that is code for the interface.
the main class instantiates the UI class anonymously (i think you call it that) i.e it does not put it into a named reference it just creates it by calling new without assigning it to anything.
When I click on a button from the UI class I want to call a method in the main class...but how so?
At first I tried to make the function i want to call in the main class static so I could easily call it from the UI class...but then it began to get complex...so i just sent a reference of the main class to the UI class via its constructer.
Now i want the main class to update a JTable in the UI class, but how? It does not have any reference to the UI class.
What is really the standard method of operation for this sort of thing when objects have to be calling methods of each other. How do I make them aware of each other.

the best way to do it is like this:
public class Main {
//this is the main class
private static class MyUIFrame extends JFrame {
    //create the class. It is useable within Main this way
    //static means it doesn't implicitly 'know' about the Main class. You can also
    //remove this and call Main.this to use Main's methods
