CS4 One Designer, Two PCs (One Mac, One Win)

We need our designer to work on both Mac and PC. So far, we worked mostly on press items, but now we are getting into the interactive development are. Our head designer needs to do the creative work on a Mac but also review and adjust on his Windows PC before submiting the file to the developers.
The designer will NEVER work on both PCs at once. We already own a license for CS4 Mac and several CS4 Win, but find unfair to have to buy an additional CS4 Win just for this case. If it was another Mac, we could do the install as long the the 2 installations are never used simultaneouslly.
Any idea on how to solve this?

Well, as you know, you can install on up to two systems of the same platform, so long as you dont use them at the same time...
But section 2.10 of the Adobe CS4 licensing agreement (section 2.11 for CS5) is pretty clear that you can't mix-and-match across platforms.
You might inquire with Adobe customer support if they can help you in any way, but that's the way it is right now, for everyone.

How to make two PCs (one local, one remote) control the same running vi at the same time?

Hi Labviewers,
I have a vi running, and two PCs are monitoring it, one is local and another one is remote.
I can see the remote front panel at the remote machine by using application property node, but it seems only one of the two PCs has the control of the running VI at the same time.
Is there any way to make the two PCs both have the control of the same vi at the same time? Switching back and forth the control between two PCs is really annoying.
Thanks a lot for any help.
Anne

What exactly are you trying to control?
Perhaps another approach? You could use "Shared Variables" from LV 8.0 and have a copy of the writer VI on each of the control PCs edit the value on the host PC. But as soon as I post, someone is going to talk about multiple writers to shared resources being a bad idea.... so just be careful or you may try to edit a value that has already been changed.

I had a MobileMe account and when Apple switched to iCloud I now have two mail accounts: @mac and @me. Additionally my folders in iCloud not longer show up in my Mail program. How do I return to one account and see my folders on my mac?

I went to Notes. Showed all notes. Three notes are duplicated, one on iCloud and one on Icloud. I deleted one of the notes and checked to see if the other still existed. It did. I deleted the other two notes. I check all notes and found that the three notes were deleted on both accounts. The only notes on this device are under On My iPad.
I went into system settings and tried to delete the Icloud account. The warning comes up: This will delete all IMAP notes on your device. Will this also delete the notes in On My iPad?

What causes the message on startup- Firefox can not find the server. Could the server block more than two pcs on line at any one time ??

I have two pcs linked to my Telkom server. I tried to add a third to test it. It sees the server and states excellent connection. But I am unable to get Firefox to open. Every attempt ends with "Firefox cant see the server". I suspect its my server which will only allow max 2 pc at any one time altho I unplugged the one (its on wire to the router) and tried. Still got the same message. Same with Opera when tried.

Your best bet is probably to start over by cleaning off the old software with the Adobe Cleaner tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then reinstall from your original media, or download it here:

I have two intel-era Mac Pros. One at work, another at home. Two months ago both started having same mix of freezes/hangs

I own two Intel-era Mac Pros, one at work, the other at home office. A couple months ago both started having the same problem: a mix of freezes/hangs and weird graphical artifacts showing up on the screens. Usually I need to reboot. Usually a reboot fixes the problem for a while until it recurs. If it was just one computer, I'd figure disk problem or graphics card. But the fact that both have been affected at the same time makes me suspect some software issue or possibly a trojan/virus. Has anyone seen something like this? Or have any advice?

The OS is still @ 10.4.8?
FBDIMMs tend to fail over time due to heat stress and more so if not kept cooler than 70*C
Helps to run SmcFanControl @ 900 rpm - esp in warmer weather
Monitor the system with Hardware Monitor, it is more accurate and thorough though not as "cute" as some.
Both have OEM 7300GT or X1900, which requires constant cleaning of dust.
We aren't mind readers so if you want, then add more details, the System Profile but w/o the serial number.
Maybe you install the same updates and programs and that is why.
Yes you could do a clean install on a fresh drive.
Maybe your drives are years old - and it never hurt to clone the system regularly for backup and maintenance, run Disk Warrior instead or in addition to Disk Utility. And take advantage of new faster drives.
No it may not be Flash based malware but then Apple isn't supporting pre-Snow Leopard as much if at all. They did offer a limited fix for recent malware.

Using one iPhone with iTunes on two PCs

Hi. Is it possible to use one iPhone with iTunes [one user account] on two PCs?
I have a desktop at home, but I'm unable to use it to update my iPhone software. I've tried several times to get to the bottom of the problem, but when I update my phone, it goes into recovery mode. As a result, I loose everything on my phone. I eventually stopped updating my phone, but now I can't get some apps to work because my iphone software are not up-to-date.
I have now authorized my PC at work in order to update my phone. It has done it successfully, but I have lost my music. Everything else is fine. Will I be able to add my music files using the PC at home?
If it works, from now on I will use my PC at work to update and back-up my phone. I know I will probably loose my music every time I do this, but it is the only way around this problem. It just means adding my music files again at home from time to time.

You can sync an iPhone with iTunes on another computer but not for any iTunes content, and you can transfer photos from a single computer only.
In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with music and videos with an iTunes library on a single computer ONLY. When transferring any iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. If you don't have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and you don't have manually manage music and videos selected either with iTunes on another computer, you can sync away. If you transfer photos from another computer, all photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
The reason you can manually manage music and videos with iTunes on multiple computers with most iPods is because most iPods support disk mode, which the iPhone does not support. Disk mode is not supported with the iPhone, the iPod Touch, and the iPad.

Two partitions of Mac OS extended and one BootCamp partition

Hi. I'm new to mac. Please help.
Is it possible to have two partitions of Mac OS Extended and the third used for BootCamp? This is very critical for me.

Hi Ovchar,
you can use the Terminal command 'Diskutil resize' described in this procedure to Triple Boot a Mac: http://wiki.onmac.net/index.php/TripleBoot_viaBootCamp
Look at the paragraph under 'Installing the Operating Systems'.
However, since you are about to repartition your complete HD, I strongly advise you to have a bootable backup/clone of your OSX on an external HD just in case something happens.
Regards
Stefan

Sync with .mac to update bookmarks on two PCs

I have a mac mini and a mac book. I want to keep my bookmarks updated on both. I used to have the ability to sync the two, but now I can't since I installed 10.4.7. How do I update my bookmarks so that they are all the same on .mac and the two PCs?

You have posted your query in the iSync forum, and are unlikely to receive the attention you issue requires, as iSync has had nothing at all to do with .Mac Sync since the release of Mac OS X 10.4 more than a year ago. You should instead have posted in the .Mac Sync forum, here:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=957
To reset sync history, do this:
• launch the System Preferences application
• select the .Mac pane
• press the Advanced tab
• once your registered computers appear in the list, press the Reset Sync Data… button
• select Bookmarks from the Replace: drop-down menu
• press the right facing arrow so that the orange animated arrow moves from left to right
• press the Replace button
This will move a copy of your Safari bookmarks on that machine to .Mac, and through it, to the other computer in your pool. You may then have to go to the .Mac bookmarks area and either turn on synchronization—or turn it off and turn it back on once again—by first pressing the Open Bookmarks button, and the the switch icon in the page which then appears.

How to transfer files(pdfs/music.etc)between two pcs

how to transfer files(pdfs/music.etc)between two pcs?

Yes, you pretty much just drag and drop or copy and paste depending on which way you like better. It is pretty much like connecting an external hard drive. Just find the files you want and copy them over to your other computer.
This is one of my favorite features from Macs. It's very simple to do and because it's Firewire even large files transfer over very quickly.

I have two PCs that I need to deauthorize so I can download tunes to my new laptop. Trouble is, they are both out of commission. Is there anyway I can deauthorize them remotely?

De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

Yes, the Lightroom License agreement is for one user / owner and allows it to be installed on two computers with the provisio that one one is in use at any point in time. It is cross platform PC &/or Mac. You can install/ uninstall as many times you require provided there are only two in existance.

Recently I purchased CS4 Web Design can I deactivated my old Photo. CS4 and Illust. CS3 to sell/gift

I have a full version of CS4 Web Design Premium, now my old Photoshop CS4 and Illustrator CS3 are redundant. Can I either sell these or give as a gift to my girlfriend's nephew - they have been deactivated and removed from my computer (macbook pro).
Thanks for your insight and help!

You may sell or otherwise transfer the individual Photoshop and Illustrator products unless (1) one or the other was used as the basis to do an upgrade to the suite itself or (2) those products were student or academic versions or part of a bulk commercial license.
Make sure you transfer registration of the software using the forms available from Adobe's website.

I found anti-phishing on our two PCs with Firefox (now 31) was NOT turned on by default, (I did not turn it off). Discovered this bug after a phishing attack.

Hi
I posted this more as an FYI. I'm using Firefox 31 on two PCs. and had a phishing incident today. I read your article on Firefox's ant-phishing / anti-malware protection, and using the two test pages you provided I found the phishing test page wasn't blocked. I followed your instructions and successfully activated it. For whatever reason on my two PCs (one is Windows 8.1 Update 1 and the other an ancient XP machine) only the anti-malware was running. Both computers were updated to version 31 in the last few days. I don't know if the failure to have anti-phishing turned on by default is a bug in this version, or was a setting copied from an earlier version of Firefox. I had never changed those security settings myself on any version of Firefox.

It's more likely this setting was carried over from an earlier version of Firefox. Some people disable one type of protection in favor of the other. Or disable the malware & phishing protection when troubleshooting other issues. Like to reach sites that Google says are bad but really are false positives.
You may have forgotten fooling with that setting or unchecked it by accident. For example, go back to the Security section in the Options. Move your mouse all the way over to the right underneath the "Exceptions" button and click your mouse along that area for each setting. You see how easily they could be changed by a misclick?
But since you say this happened on 2 computers, I'll ask a few people to test this out and see what happens.
You also said you had a anti-phishing incident? Could you elaborate a little more on that. I'm guessing you were in your email and opened a email you thought to be legitimate?
You'd only have been safe in that case if Google's database had been updated with info to block that exact phishing attack. Did you try revisiting the actual phishing attack after activating the protection? I'm curious to know if it was blocked.
