Deactivate previous installations

I have two previous activations of Photoshop Elements 8. the computers in question no longer exist. This is now preventing my use of the programme on my current computer. How do I de-activate the previous installations?

You will need to contact adobe activation support:
http://www.adobe.com/products/activation/
You can often start a chat from that page and get it taken care of right then.

I have a new machine with a previous installation of Itunes, linked to another Apple ID. Even I authorized the machine to my Apple ID, I can not connect to the Apple Store. I tried removing Itunes and reinstalling it, but anything changed. I still can not connecto to the Store.
My previous machine has Itunes Installed, and I deauthorized the machine so I unlinked to my Apple ID, if this is correct.
Anyway, Dropbox is also not connecting....so I do not know how to make it woek. please help!

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

I am getting error 205 while trying to install Creative Cloud. I already had chated with support, Uninstalled CC and tried to install it again. From the Adobe site, the page keeps loading eternally, from the previous installer, it gives me error 205. What to do? Give up on CC?
This is not the first time I get it, and it seems a recurring problem.

My daughter somehow managed to reset my Mac Book Pro, does anyone know of a recovery tool that can restore the previous installation and all my files?

Last night as I was working on a term paper my wife called for my help, I made the mistake of not putting my MacBook Pro up where are four-year-old could not get to it. While I was assisting my wife or daughter somehow managed to get to the reset and reset my MacBook Pro. Now I have worked several years in IT in the Microsoft Windows environment and I know there's all kinds of software tools to recover previous installations of Microsoft products, is there such a tool for Apple Macintosh. If there is, can please somebody tell me the name of the recovery software? I really need to recover the lost files!

Unfortunately OSX doesn't have such good tools like System Restore, etc. If you don't have a TimeMachine backup or another backup of any kind, you're kind of lost. Did you just lose personal files or did you lose everything (apps, etc.). I guess what I'm asking is... I can't exactly tell what your daughter did without you providing more info. Is it possible that she deleted your entire profile? If you've worked in IT for so long, you should be able to provide a more detailed description of the actual problem. What was changed?... You should be able to tell that without asking her.

Firefox was working, then when I clicked the icon to open, it said it needed to restart to complete a previous installation. After restart, it will not start at all, goes straight to crash report in regular and safe mode.

The only recent changes to the PC are:
Ran latest Microsoft updates.
Installed Halo2, F1 and TinTin games (all purchased from store, installed off original CD)
Installed DirectX
Installed Microsoft Games for Windows Live and reditributable
Installed Visual C++ 2005 redistributable.
Have tried new installation of FF, won't install, repeats dialog about needing to restart to complete a previous installation (see question above)

I cannot install either iTunes 10.5 or QuickTime 7.7 after having removed the previous installation of both softwares from my Win 7 64 bits.

Hi folks. I hope someone can help me out.
I had iTunes 10.4 and QuickTime Player 7.7 running pretty well on my notebook (a Dell Vostro 3550 with Win 7 Pro 64-bits) and followed many of the pieces of advice on how to upgrade to iTunes 10.5, including uninstalling all Apple software from my computer and trying to install them again from the very beginning.
First, I tried to uninstall/remove all Apple Softwares as suggested on the post http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. But I was not able to remove the Apple softwares through ContolPanel -> Software -> Uninstall/Repair/Remove. The softwares removal stops due to "lack" of Admin access permission to certain keys in Windows registry: xxx/Unistaller/Media, etc. I got this message trying to remove iTunes, QuickTime, AppleSoftwareUpdate, AppleMobileDeviceSupport. I can assure you that I do have Admin privileges on my notebook and I also shut down any protection tool (Win Firewall, Norton 350, etc.) that might be running during the softwares removal. None of the solutions seemed to work, but I could recover my previous installation of iTunes 10.4 and QuickTime 7.7 and got them running just fine.
Then I tried to uninstall iTunes and QuickTime using the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility and the Fix It Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall) as also suggested on one of the many posts I have read in Apple Communities. The softwares were all removed, however, even by getting the new installation packages of iTunes 10.5 and QuickTime 7.7 from Apple's web sute, I can't install any of them. I tried to do it with previous versions too, but nothing seems to work. And now, I can't even recover my previous installations of iTunes and QuickTime. I simply cannot have iTunes installed on my notebook.
It seems the only way to sort it out is reinstalling Win 7 and all other applications I have from the very beginning, which is a nightmare and will take days.
Any suggestions? I couldn't have any info from Apple Tech Support untill now.

what if they are turned off? I cannot install iTunes or QuickTime Pro 7 on my WIN7/64 Lenovo W520. ran all the repair cycles uninstalls, reinstalls about 10X each, no luck

How to add datafile from previous installation to a new one

Hello,
I have a new installation Oracle 11g 11.1.0.6 (64b), in addition to that i have a copy (all files - 'cold backup') of my previous installation Oracle 11g 11.1.0.6 (32b). I don't have any backup from expdp or rman. How can I import data from the old installation to the new one? Is there any simple way? When i just overwrite users01.dbf (tablespace users) i get an error when i start my instance:
ORA-01203: wrong incarnation of this file - wrong creation SCN
When I overwrite all *.dbf files, control files (*.ctl) and redo logs (*.log) and then when i try connect i get an error:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
Does anybody can help me? Any help is highly appreciate.

Trying to reinstall Acrobat Pro X from disc onto win 8.1 system. (Previous installation got corrupted) Continually getting message ‘Acrobat has detected another process which has not yet completed…’. Have now closed system both cold (full shutdown) and warm (restart) over 10 times. Every time I go to reinstall I get message.

I would run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html and delete any Acrobat folders that have been created, then try again. Be sure to log in as the administrator and disable anti-virus when you have problems like this.

Exchange 2010 SP3 /PrepareAD failing; "A reboot from a previous installation is pending. Please restart the system..." error

I am attempting to prepare our Exchange 2010 Server (RTM) for an upgrade to SP3.
When attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" to prep the AD schema, the command fails and I receive the following error in the ExchangeSetup log:
[12/19/2013 21:50:48.0650] [1] Beginning processing Get-OrganizationConfig

I am receiving this error when attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" from either of our two GCs and I get the same error from both GCs, so the issue doesn't appear to be related to the individual servers.
What should I be checking, to clear this error so the AD schema update can be performed?
Environment
Exchange: Exchange Server 2010 RTM
Server: Windows 2008 R2 (fully patched)

One follow up:
If I go into regedit, I see that under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager there is an entry from when I recent installed Google Chrome.
The entry looks like:
MultiString: PendingFileRenameOperation
Value Data: \??\C:\Program FIles (x86)\Google\Chrome
Is this "pending rename" what's causing SP3 to refuse to install, because it thinks the OS install state isn't 'clean'?

Customer ID and OSS Id from previous installations

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to get the Customer ID from the previous XI installations? If not, reason please.
Is it possible to get the OSS ID from the previous XI installations? If not, reason please.
Similarly for other keys..
BASIS team done the Development environment setup..and now we have new BASIS team to setup the Production environment.So, just we would like to know the above details they can get it from the previous installations or not.
Thanks & Regards
Sara

Hi Sara,
Every customer will be provided with a super id.This id will be created by SAP and sent to your customer.
Ask your customer for this id. Once you get this id then you have to make an another id with all the permissions so that you can use this id to create oss ids for your team. You can do this
under data administration -->user admin. This can be done in service market place.
If you basis team has a oss id then ask them to try creating a new user in the market place if they have enough authorizations then they don't need any other super id.If not ask your customer to provide this and then you can carry out the procedure.
Every client(Customer of SAP) has only one customer id.
Regards,
Vamshi.

5.0 will not install, it says it has to finish a previous installation, how do I get around this?

I am trying to update to version 5.0. After it as if I want standard or custom installation, it says I have to reboot my computer to finish a previous installation. I tried rebooting several times to no avail. When I upgraded to 4.01 the list of search engines on the address bar dissapeared. I was hoping 5.0 would fix that.

Unable to activate trial due to a previous installation???

I got the message saying
- Unable to activate trial due to a previous installation of a NitroX trial on this computer.
I've read the announcement post on "Error during activation of NitroX Free JSP Editor" but I don't understand for several points.
1. I'd never installed a previous installation on that machine! Why did I get this message?
I've tried to remove the whole Eclipse directory and tried again, but I still get the same error message. I've tried to search if there's anything in the registry but none is found.
2. Despite point 1, I tried to go on and paste the same ID and serial # I use for the other machine, but NitroX refused to accept it. Is this normal?
3. I suppose point 2 means that an ID/serial pair could only be used once, right? So, I clicked on a link to register but failed because your server says that the email address has been used (of course!). And when I logged in, I couldn't find how I could add a second ID/serial pair. Does this mean I need to create a new account everytime I want an ID/serial pair? :shock: This isn't convenient :!:

I see. So in other word, if I need an ID/serial pair, I have to use another email address.
This is so inconvenient and so impractical. Don't you think so?
I mean, for free version, you can't prevent users from creating n logins to have n ID/serial pairs to work with his n PC. Why don't you just simply let them associate as many ID/serial as they like? Is this more pragmatic?
Anyway, it's your policy but imagine how many "preventable" mails always asking the same question of "Why my ID/serial doesn't work?" you could avoid.

Cannot install on this Disk, no previous installation of OS X detected

Hi,
today I tried to install OS. I took install CD 1 (original Mac OS X Panther v10.3) and I ran Disk utility - made new partition and erase disk (I want clear new installation and I don't need old data).
Then I ran installation and then I got this message:
Cannot install on this Disk, no previous installation of OS X detected
Why does it need previous installation? I want to make new Install. How can I make it?
Thanks a lot!

CDs looks the same, but in the first CD is under Install Disk 1 write "Upgrade".
As I wrote, I have 3 CDs - black with silver X, which I got with my computer. On CDs is Panther 10.3 which was pre-install in my computer too and which I erased.
From Pogue's "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Panther Edition":
When you buy Panther from a store, you get the installer described on these pages—the one capable of performing either an Upgrade installation or an "Archive and Install" (that is, a clean install).
You may have received a different set of CDs, however, thanks to Apple's Software Up-to-Date program. (That's where you pay only $20 or so for the upgrade—an consolation prize offered to people who bought a new Mac only a few weeks before a major new Mac OS X version comes out.) You'll know if you have this set, because Disc 1 bears the label Upgrade Disc.
Trouble is, there's no Archive and Install option when you run this installer. After all, these discs are intended to upgrade the copy of Mac OS X that's already on your new Mac.
That doesn't mean, though, that you can't perform a clean install at all. If you use the Erase and Install option, you do indeed get a clean installation of Panther. You'll have to re-create your accounts and settings, but at least you'll wind up with the considerable stability benefits of a clean installation.
It may be that your machine was "pre-upgraded" before you received it, and you got the Panther upgrade disks but weren't also given a set of the original Jaguar disks.
Try the installation again, and when you get to the Select a Destination screen, see if there is an Options button. If so, click it, and see if you can get to an Erase and Install option.

Cleaning files left from previous installation

do anyone know the best tool for cleaning files left from previous installation....which are uninstalled...
the more I help....the more I feel good...

I can't tell if you are updating from Palm Desktop 4.x to 6.2 on the same machine, or trying to move the data from an old machine to the new one.
I'm sure you've noticed this already, but Palm Desktop 6.2.2 uses a different location for its user files than does PD 4.x.
Your User folder is located on this path (using Palm Desktop 4.x):
c > program files > palm (or palmone) > [your device folder]
In Palm Desktop 6.2.2 the Backup folder is here:
my documents > palm OS desktop > [your device folder]
If your data exists on another machine with the older version of Palm Desktop, I suggest trying to Export the data from your old Palm Desktop installation, and Importing the data on the new desktop.
