Some time back I was in college and purchased a copy of CS2, I loved it but now after a computer death and a new install on a new PC the registration program won't take the code and continually needs to bee registered, how do I fix it without buying a new version.

    I keep getting the spinning wheel, and macbook pro seems to be slowing down.  How do i fix this without buying software?

    Go to system profiler and report back the amount of RAM that you have.
    Make sure that you have at least 20% of your hard drive free.
    Make sure you don't have a lot of items on your desktop as that can slow things down.
    Quit applications that aren't responding or you aren't using and won't be using for a while.
    ~/Library/Caches Quit all applications and delete this folder. Do a regular delete then do a secure erase on all the items that won't delete.
    If it only happens with a certain application (Safari for example)...
    1. Quit the application (Safari)
    2. Open ~/Library/Preferences and find the file for safari (com.apple.Safari.plist).
    3. Put the file in the trash. Do NOT empty the trash yet. Open the application and make sure everything's ok. Now you can delete the file. In Mail if you trash the file, you will get rid or your setup.
    Make sure that your dashboard doesn't have too many widgets and use Activity Monitor to see what it's using.
         There are ways to disable if you want to.
    Make sure that all of your software is up to date.
    Repair permissions (it can't hurt)
    Don't have a lot of login items.
    Your internet browser shouldn't have a lot of extensions.
    I hope this helps

  • How to fix OS without buying a new one

    The original hard drive that came with the computer worked well until it got a virus that basically shut down the whole computer. HP Support helped me to wipe everything off of the hard drive except for the operating system but now I cannot even log in. An error message pops up and the computer shuts down. I bought a new hard drive and was planning to re-install Windows 7 Home Premium on it using the product key from the computer but I do not have a copy of Windows 7. A disk did not come with the computer when I bought it and HP is trying to charge me $30 for a recovery DVD that some computer companies send with computer for free.

    Hi:
    HP does not supply recovery media with their PC's.
    Consumers are supposed to make their own set of recovery disks by using the recovery manager program when they first get the PC.
    You will either have to pay the $30 bucks, or borrow a full retail W7 home premium installation disk from someone that may have one, and then you can use the product key from the sticker on your PC.
    I think a W7 home premium upgrade disk will work too.
    Microsoft used to have the download links available for W7 but for some reason, they shut down the links in mid-February.

  • My iPad2 won't support Flash Player. How do I change this without buying a new Pad?

    I play some Facebook games on my PC and would like to play them through FB on my iPad2. It doesn't support Flash Player. Is there an upgrade or download I can use to address this problem. I don't want to have to buy a new iPad.

    Nope.  Adobe the makers of Flash have not made a version of Flash that runs on iOS.  No iPad in the world can run it natively.
    You may however be able to use an alternate browser like Puffin or Photon that support Flash to play the games.

  • How can I reset my IPad?  It won't take my code and it is the only one I know I have.

    How can I reset my IPad?  I've tried twice and had the passcode that I use to unlock my IPad rejected.  Should I be using my apple.com password?  I'm afraid to try again as it might lock the IPad.  I don't remember any other code.  My Wifi and 3G won't work.

    Your password for your Apple ID is not the same as the passcode for the screen lock on your iPad unless you set it that way deliberately, enabling the extra-long passcodes (the standard is a four-digit number). If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

  • I tried to update my macbook pro, the screen is now frozen. My track pad hasn't been working for awhile and my disc drive is broken. IS there anything that can be done without buying a new laptop. It was bought in 2009

    My track pad has not been working properly for awhile and my disc drive it damaged. I went to update my macbook pro to maveric and it is now frozen and not allowing me to click anything. Is there anything that can be done to fix this without buying a new one? Its from early 2009

    ShelbyMackenzieLynne,
    when you say that your disc drive is damaged, do you mean your MacBook Pro’s hard disk drive, or do you mean its SuperDrive (the CD/DVD drive)?
    When you’d updated your MacBook Pro to Mavericks, did the installation succeed, and subsequently freeze up? Or did it freeze up during the Mavericks installation?
    Which version of OS X was installed on your MacBook Pro before you’d installed Mavericks?
    Are you currently able to boot into the Mavericks recovery partition? To see if you can do so, hold down a Command key and the R key while starting up your MacBook Pro.

    You may have to do this several times.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

    My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
    I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
    I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
    It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
    one more bug in a complicated system I guess

  • I recently thought I lost my iPhone and I erased it but now that I found it. I cannot get the this iPhone message is lost please call ********* I am out of the country my laptop is at home. I cannot access I tune. How do I fix this. I have an iPhone 4s

I cannot access I tune. How do I fix this. I need to get it back on so I can face time with my family. The phone says 3G but it keeps saying on list mode. I signed on icloud and removed it from the account and nothing. Please help!

    If you removed the device from your iCloud account rather than using the "Stop Lost Mode" option, then you will most certainly need to restore the iPhone, and that will require a computer running iTunes.

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

  • I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    AH...good. 
    There is no limit on the times you can install it from the DVDs. There's just a limit as to being able to run it on multiple machines AT THE SAME TIME. If your old computer dies, or you sell it (please reformat the drive so they don't get FCP for free), then you can install on a new computer fine.  And you are allowed to install on (1) desktop and (1) laptop at the same time as well...but only use it on one machine at any given time. Meaning you can use it on the desktop at work, and then when away from the office, on your laptop.
    Long story short...you can install it fine without any issues.
