Deactivating Aperture for installation in a new computer

I'm getting a new computer and don't want to loose my Aperture. Is there a way to deactivate in the old computer and then reinstall in the new one?

When you set up your new computer, you will be given the option to automatically migrate your files to it. This will move all of your documents, photos, applications etc. to the new machine, and when it finishes you should be able to just start up Aperture and all of your photos will be there.

    The iPhone is not a backup device.
    Restore the iTunes library from the backup that should be kept of your media and other important files.
    Syncing the iPhone to a new library (in this case, it will be a new library unless you have a complete backup of the iTunes folder pre-crash) will result in the media on the device being removed and replaced with content from the new library.
    As for iOS5, we really do not know until Apple officially releases it.

  • BASIC PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION OF A NEW SYSTEM

    Here is some advice on the steps to take for a successful installation of Snow Leopard (or any major system update or upgrade):
    1. Do not start until you have made two bootable back-ups, so that you can easily return to the situation you had before the installation, if something goes wrong. A bootable back-up is a back-up of everything on your drive to an external drive and made "bootable" (that is, you can boot off this external drive to restore your main drive to its pre-existing condition). There are a number of pieces of software which make bootable back-ups. For little money, you can use Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. I use Synchronize Pro X, which costs a bit but is industrial strength software. Over the years, I've found that SPX does the job much faster than CCC or SD, and, most importantly, Qdea (the SPX people) puts out a new version of SPX to deal with the new system or update much more quickly than do any of the other back-up software people. Sometimes you won't get the new version of CCC or SD until quite a while after the release of the new system software, and you're not able to make a bootable back-up in time, if you want to install the new system software quickly. HAVING A BOOTABLE BACK-UP IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT YOU DON'T LOSE ANY DATA AND THAT YOU CAN RECOVER QUICKLY IF THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH AN INSTALLATION. Test the bootable back-up by booting off it before you try the installation of the new software.
    2. Verify and Repair your main drive and Repair Permissions before doing any major installation. You want your drive data to be in excellent shape before putting in a new system or update. When the installation is done, repair the permissions again.
    3. Check carefully for any information about the compatibility of the new system software with your primary applications and peripherals (in particular, printers). Even with a good new installation, you may lose a printer if it's old and there's no new driver for it. Don't be surprised after the installation that you've lost the use of your printer or other important peripheral device.
    4. If you run into problems, check the Apple discussion forums to see if someone else had the same problems and find out what they did to solve them.

    You may be able to make a bootable back-up with DU, but DU can't do a quick update of the back-up as time progresses. The beauty of a piece of software like Synchronize Pro X is that, once you have a bootable back-up, you can quickly update it week by week. SPX can very quickly find the changes in your master drive and put those changes on the bootable back-up. With DU you have to start from scratch each time to make a whole new disk image.
    A bootable back-up isn't just for use to protect against an installation problem. I've had a computer stolen in a hotel room, and I was able to use a friend's computer (which was also a Mac) to keep working. I just hooked up my back-up, booted off it and now his computer appeared to be my computer, because my bootable back-up recreated my usual work environment on his computer.
    Similarly, if your main drive fails, you've lost nothing if you have a bootable back-up. You're up and running again very quickly.
    I keep my bootable back-ups up-to-date always. And with Synchronize Pro X, this is very quickly and easily done.

  • Installation on a New Computer with no CD input?

    I recently obtained a new computer (iMac 21.5) that has no CD input. I have a disk version of Photoshop Elements 6 with the serial number. Is there a way to download this program without having to buy a new version?

    There is no download available for that version.  The oldest available is version 7.  You might be able to copy the installation file(s) to some other removable media that works with your machine and install with that.

  • Installation on a new computer after theft

    I bought Premiere elements 12 several months ago, installed it and used. Now, two weeks ago my pc (laptop) with the program was stolen. I intend to buy new PC and install Elements again since I have installation disc and serial number. Do I have to activate/deactivate anything, register etc or I just have to put installation disc into computer and type in serial number? i understand that you can only install program two times. Is there a way to deactivate program on my stolen computer?

    Contact Customer Care
    Based on a recent thread report, I am not sure how Adobe will handle your request. It very well may tell you
    to contact them again when and if you purchase a new computer and have trouble installing this purchased Premiere Elements with serial number because
    of the purchased serial number was found to be activated on more than 2 computers.
    We will be watching for the outcome.
    Thanks.

  • Where do I download from for moving CS5 to new computer from old?

    I have deactivated the application from my old computer.  Now I don't see where, on the Adobe site, to start the download for my new computer.

    Did you purchase a download version of Creative Suite 5?  If so then I would recommend reviewing http://forums.adobe.com/message/3980334#3980334

  • Can't get stuff I paid for and downloaded to new computer with itunes.

    Ok, I was having some major issues. I posted them here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2569987
    So I decided to download Itunes to my laptop and start over. I tryed to start my desktop to deautherize thta computer but I found out its dead now.
    After installing Itunes and signing in to my account, authrizing this computer I go to check downloads to download all the stuff I paid for in the itunes store. Last time I switched computers all i had to do was do that and it would download it to the new computer.
    Now it says everything was downloaded to this account. It does not download what I paid for. It says I can burn it to a CD/ DVD or link it with home share.
    How can I burn it to a CD if the computer its on is dead? I can't get into the dead computer through my network and home share.
    How can i get the songs/ apps/ movies I have paid for with my hard earned money to download to my account on this new computer?
    I am VERY frustrated with Apple right now. No one has answered my posts, then when I check for phone support, it says they want to charge me.

    I go to check downloads to download all the stuff I paid for in the itunes store.
    That function is for items which you haven't previously downloaded from anywhere, such as season pass episodes not available at the time of purchase.
    How can I burn it to a CD if the computer its on is dead?
    Put its hard drive into an enclosure and copy the files directly.
    How can i get the songs/ apps/ movies I have paid for with my hard earned money to download to my account on this new computer?
    Applications can be freely redownloaded the same way you purchased them. For other content, click here and ask if the hard drive is dead.

  • Is it OK to copy and paste Aperture and iTunes libraries to new computer?

    Is it OK to copy and paste Aperture and iTunes libraries to new a computer in OS X Mavericks?

    Well, yes, you can copy them over.  It's probably easier to use Migration Assistant though, as a lot depends on how the machines are connected, etc.

  • Adding on music for iphone with a new computer

    I'm sorry for this for being a noob question, but my old computer with itunes which synced with my iphone has died - so is there ANY way I can edit all song information without having to reformat/resync with a new computer?
    many thanks

    You don't maintain a backup copy? This is one of the many reasons that always maintaining backup is basic.
    If for some reason you did not backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
    You can backup your iphone ( does not include apps/music/vids/etc) to your new computer, see this article for clarification:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you enter at least one unique contact/calendar entry into your computer, then you should get the option to merge the data when you first sync.
    It is very important to always maintain a backup copy of all important info, as computer/hard drives do not always announce their pending failure.
