Deactivation of product after hard drive crashes

My hard drive crashed and I didn't have a chance to de-activate my Adobe photoshop Elements2.0
after installing a new hard drive, installing windows 8.1, I began to re-install the software. I installed
Photoshop2.0, upon installations I opened the software and proceeded to register it with the company.
It told me that it was already registered, do I need to de-activate this serial number? if so how do I do
this? How can I keep this software working as a valid part of my photo editing?
Thank you. dan

  • How do I unactivate after hard drive crash?

    Just purchased an upgrade to CS6 Photoshop from CS3 Photoshop but hard drive crashed before I could uninstall it. How do I deactivate after hard drive crash? Do I need to or can I just load my full CS3 copy and then upgrade it to my new CS6?

    You can just install CS6 directly.  You will be prompted to enter your qualifying serial number from CS3 during the install process.

  • Syncing iPhone with Outlook 2007 after hard drive crash.

    I recently had a hard drive crash.  We were able to retrieve the .pst files for Outlook 2007 and I sync my iPhone with Outlook for contacts, calendar and such for business.  The iPhone of course, was not affected.  I downloaded iTunes on the new hard drive, and backed up the phone.  (I sync music and apps on my husband's laptop.) 
    Now, in trying to sync, though, I get a lot of nebulous messages that really don't explain what the outcome will be. 
    Box says:
    The information on the iPhone "Susan's iPhone" is synced with another user account.  Do you want to sync this iPhone with the information from this user account instead?
    (Choices:  "Merge Info mergest th einformation on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  OR "Replace Info" replaces the information on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  )
    My best guess would be 'Merge info" but then, will I end up with double everything?  I have many hundreds of contacts and years of calendars.
    It seems with Apple I'm always cleaning up one mess after another.  Today when installing iTunes, it corrupted my Outlook and I had to repair Outlook. So it would be a nightmare to have double of everything on my phone and on my computer. 
    Does anyone have a clue as to what to expect? 

    On a PC with Windows or with Paralels iTunes 8.2 has an option for Outlook which works with Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 (if it works - see my post on a case where it doesn't ...)

  • After hard drive crash I needed to authorise my pc again. itunes tells me iphone cannot sync as pc not authorised. when I try to authorise the pc, itunes tells me pc is already authorised... what can i do?

    After a recent hard drive crash I needed to authorise my pc again. I first de-authorised all previous computers (there was no other option)
    Then I authorised the pc with the new hard drive.
    then I tried to sync
    Then itunes tells me iphone cannot sync as pc not authorised.
    when I try to authorise the pc, itunes tells me pc is already authorised...
    I have been playing this game 10 times now ... "cannot sync because pc not authorised" and then "cannot authorise as already authorised"
    what can i do?
    thanks

    yes, a few times. the number of authorised computers decreases and increases from zero to one and vice versa accordingly. yet I am still being told that it cannot sync.

  • Time Machine after hard drive crash

    Recently, my MacBook's hard drive crashed. Fortunately, I had most of my data backed up via Time Machine. So, once Apple installed a new hard drive, I "restored all" with Time Machine. Now when I launch Time Machine, my archive only goes back a few days, to when I initially "restored all" -- before, my archives went back to November. Where did all of my backups go? How can I get them to show up in Time Machine?

    when TM does the first backup after a full system restore it sometimes does a complete (or nearly complete) backup. This happened to me once. this creates a big space demand to accommodate that backup and if there is not enough space TM will start deleting old backups to create space. To check this open TM drive in finder, go to Backups.backupdb->computer-name folder. all available backups will be listed there chronologically. how far back does it go?

  • After hard drive crash, Pages app brought over, and upgrade to snow leopard installed, Pages would not launch.  Re-downloaded the 3.0.3 update and Pages launched, but will not open any documents or start new document.

    After a hard-drive crash, Pages application was brought over from the old hard drive, and upgraded to snow leopard.  However, Pages would not launch.  I do not have the disks and the computer was given to me by my son with iWork 08 installed, so I do not have the ability to re-install using Purchases.  I re-installed the update 3.0.3, which I already had, but thought it worth a try.  That enabled Pages to launch, but it will not open a new or old document.  I can see in preview the document, but it will not open.  Any suggestions besides repurchasing Pages.  I've just put out a lot of money for a new hard drive and retrieval of apps and docs from the old hard drive and would like not to have to put more money in it. 
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    You can not simply drag over Pages, particularly if it was perhaps damaged in a crash.
    As it was only Pages '08 it may be time to upgrade to Pages '09 from the App Store. It is not that expensive and will allow you to install it on any Mac sharing the same Apple I.D. and protect you from a repeat of this problem.
    There are free alternatives to Pages if you are hard strapped, it depends on what you are using Pages for, it is not the only option by far.

  • How to disable audible account after hard drive crash

    I have had 2 computer hard drive crashes that were authorized iTunes accounts.  Since they crashed, I don't know how to de-authorize them. What happens after all 5 of my authorized account computers crash?  I can no longer listen to music purchased through iTunes?
    I hope there is a way to de-authorize a computer that crashed.  Can anyone help!

    I believe this might of worked after all. I did like you said and double clicked on the My Catalog file. PSA and it just put in the timeline and dates on the pictures but had a ? mark and no picture. I then chose to dowload files from the My pictures folder that the downloader was directed to for each download. It seems to restoring the photo's and putting them with the tags and all. I am so relieved because I had 37,500 pictures that would of been untagged and out of order. I learned my lesson to do a backup more frequently! Thanks for your help. If I would want to update to PSE 9 is it compatible with windows XP?

  • Can I install Snow Leopard over Lion to install old software after hard drive crashed?

    My hard drive crashed and I lost everything.  I have a new hard drive, but when the repair shop installed my operating system, they installed Lion and I no longer have my prior updates.  My computer had been updated a few times.  I have a lot of software that only can be installed up to 10.7 such as Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, Office Mac 2011, etc.  I was wondering if I installed Snow Leopard over Lion, would I lose Lion?  Should I install Snow Leopard and then Lion again?  I don't want to damage my like new computer and I don't want to have to go out and buy all new software.  Is there a solution?  Thanks in advance!

    Sounds complicated!  If I repartition the drive and install Snow Leopard onto the blank volume, will Lion still be there?  Or, will the computer basically have two operating systems that I have to go back and forth from.  Is this something a novice like myself can do?

  • Restoring 10.7.X after hard drive crash

    My 2007 Macbook had a hard drive crash. I replaced the drive, reinstalled 10.6 (and updates) from the purchased disk, and restored all of the original software.
    I was previously running 10.7, Lion, but now I am unable to find this on the App Store. I originally purchased 10.7 from the App Store by download, but I do not have a hard copy of the OS? I would like to get it back to 10.7. I understand that the Macbook will not be compatible with Mountain Lion.
    How do I do this?

    Lion is no longer available from the App Store >  http://www.macworld.com/article/1167879/apple_pulls_lion_from_the_mac_app_store. html

    Thank you,

    I didn't want to get into a what I should have done and yes I know better than what I actually have done.
    Yes my most recent uncorrupted one is not that recent - I had deleted the some for space.

  • Preserve previous homepage after hard drive crash

    My hard drive crashed and due to various major issues with the hard drive, much of my data was not backed up as it said it was...so...
    is there a way to preserve my previous iweb site so that when you type in the general web.mac.com/username it will still automatically reroute you to the old site rather than whatever new site i make on iweb now?

    yes, a few times. the number of authorised computers decreases and increases from zero to one and vice versa accordingly. yet I am still being told that it cannot sync.

  • Can't open iPhoto library after hard drive crash

    My daughter's MacBook hard drive crashed rather catastrophically. I managed to clone the damaged drive to an external drive before it died completely. On the clone, her iPhoto library appears intact, but when I double click on it, and click the options to update the photos and thumbnails for the current version of iPhoto (I think she was using '08, and I'm on '09) I'm left with an empty iPhoto. When I open the package contents of the iPhoto Library, I can see the original files, but can't get them to open, even in Photoshop.
    Any ideas out there? I have an older version of her Library on backup, but it's the more recent photos she's desperate to get back.

    The 'Originals' are all around 3 - 3.6 megs each.
    Well that sounds like at least there is data there. Try download a trial of Graphic Coverter . I've seen that open some hopeless cases.
