Deactivation

I had Photoshop Elements 8 installed on my laptop.
I had to have a new hard drive installed on my laptop but did not realise I had to deactivate Elements 8 before doing so.
I have installed Elements 8 on my updated computer and have been using it for a couple of days.
Today a message from Adobe to say I have Elements 8 on 3 other computers so I cannot continue with my licence on this laptop.
I have in fact installed it on 2 other computers.
How can I deactivate the licensed copy which I had installed on my laptop before I had the new hard drive installed?
Adobe says I have 30 days to purchase a new licence.
How many times (computers) can I install my copy of Elements 8.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have solved the problem after reading some other comments. Sorry for having to post my question.

How can I delete an iTunes account that has been deactivated?

I deleted an old Apple ID with the help of a call to Apple Support. However, my iphone is still trying to use the old ID. How do I log out of the old ID and into the new? Or, how can I delete the old ID when it has already been deactivated? (Cannot delete with phone)

Only iTunes Support can potentially delete an account (which would also delete any purchase history for it, so you would no longer be able to authorise that content on a computer, redownload it, and download updates to its apps) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
Or you could just remove any personal info from it (e.g. payment details if you have any on it) and stop using it

Adobe Creative Suite 2 Will not work after deactivation

First off, I don't get this company. I had to let that out.
I had an issue I started out with by not knowing which computer had my Adobe Photoshop on so I ended up Googling an answer over how to deactivate my product. It led me to a chat with a representative:
Please visit http://www.adobe.com/support/contact if there are more questions for Adobe. Thank you.

After doing what she asked, I deactivated, and uninstalled my Adobe Creative Suite 2. Everything. So after all this, I reinstalled, entered in the new serial I got through their webpage for the special version after creating an Adobe ID. Guess what? After an unpleasant re-installation process (there is three downloaded parts you have to download for CS2 in which disc2 and disc3 are set on a default path that is separate from disc1 which you need to converge being it creates two folders with similar naming structures), and I ended up opening Adobe Photoshop only to find it say the very same thing I meant to avoid: your serial, name, organization, yadha, yadha, is incorrect/missing. Adobe will now close.
So frustrated with this company, and its support.

Well, now I cannot reproduce the error because I cannot install it again! Woohoo! For some reason, all three discs executables try installing the folders, files, etc... into a different folder making it when I try installing CS2 impossible since it asks for Disc 2, Disc 3, etc..
ANYWAY, my main issue was began with when I somehow managed to install it correctly, I got the very same message I contacted you guys over: Adobe Photoshop will now close because missing serial number something like that, and following it saying it will close.

I deactivated my student edition of CS6 Design and Web Premium, go to activate it on my new computer and serial code is invalid.

I downloaded the design and web premium, and entered a serial code to start it as the full version. However, after the install, it asked me for my serial code again. I entered it, and it didn't work. I tried registering my serial code on the adobe site, and it says it's invalid. My school gave it to me last year and it worked fine on my old computer. In that time, creative cloud came out and trials stopped being available as they were before. How I got it before was installing the trial, then activating it with my code. I have a PC and am running windows 7. My laptop is old and really just not up for the games I play or designing anymore, so I built a desktop. Successfully deactivated it, why can't I get it on my new computer? I am able to open the software as a trial, but I want to activate it. The error message I get in-program is "this serial number is not valid for adobe indesign/photoshop/illustrator CC 2014." Any suggestions?

if you're being asked for two serial numbers, you're probably using an upgrade serial number at the first prompt and the second prompt is probably for the serial number of a previous version.
otherwise, Error "The serial number is not valid for this product" | Creative Suite

How to download Creative Cloud on new computer after deactivating on another computer?

I need to switch a Creative Cloud license from one computer to another. I deactivated the license via the CC Desktop App and then uninstalled it from the first computer. Now I want to download it on the other computer and activate. The Adobe website does not make it easy to figure out how to do that. Their standard help page only got me as far as deactivation from the first computer. Can someone tell me how to download it? The company I work for already has a license paid for.

Exactly the same way you did the 1st time... log in to your Adobe ID and start

My iPhone 5s keeps deactivating itself.

Let it first be said that I jumped in a pool with my iPhone 5s. I was able to open it up, dry it out, and it was functioning fine until I left it out in a rainstorm. At first, everything was fine, but I started noticing that a few things were amiss. I could listen to my iPhone with earphones, but was not getting full sound out of my Apple earphones with a mic. Also, Bluetooth would work for Siri, but not for a phone call. I don't know where the signal went, I couldn't hear anything until I went back to the iPhone. Finally, since I upgraded to 8.0.2 my phone keeps deactivating itself and can't keep a good cellular signal. Of course, by now I've messed around inside my phone several times. Anyone?

Someone else may be able to offer suggestions, but my best guess is the water has permanently damaged some components. The only solution is to replace your phone.
Seeing as you've worked on it yourself, Apple will not sell you an out of warranty replacement. You would have to pay full price for a phone.
You may want to seek help over at ifixit.com to see if anyone there has had similar issues/can suggest parts to try replacing.

How do I use my deactivated Droid 2 as a media player?

I know it's possible, because I used it for a while after I got my iphone and then my son used it with his number temporarily when he broke his phone, I've restored it to factory settings but can't get past the activation screen. Can't I use the device with wifi without activating it? Or is this expensive device good for nothing since no one wants to use it as a phone. I'd like to use it as an alarm clock/media player but how do I do that? I called Verizon support and she told me it isn't possible but I'm not willing to give up that easily. Help please! Save this device from the landfill! TIA, L.

Sure wish I was more patient. What I ended up doing was temporarily reactivating the phone since I knew it worked after I initially stopped using it. I downloaded the apps I wanted then I turned it off and reactivated my iphone. All appears to be well but I will file your instructions away for possible future reference. Thanks a bunch!

See if this works to bypass the activation screen: On the Welcome screen with the 'touch the Android to begin' icon, tap each of the four corners of the screen, starting with the top left, i.e.:- Tap the top left corner of the screen, then- Tap the top right corner of the screen, then- Tap the bottom right corner of the screen (just above the grey bar), then- Tap the bottom left corner of the screen (just above the grey bar) Wait a few seconds and you should see the home screen

How do I get a licence deactivated that is on a dead computer

I purchased a few years ago CS4 - I still have one licence active another was not deactivated by my ex husband who sold his laptop and the third was on a hard drive that was replaced and the licence not deactivated. I need a copy on my macbook pro that has the new hard drive. But it would be that all three licences are active when in fact they aren't. Is it possible to have adobe deactivate the other two if I can give them the serial number of my computer?
My disc is also in storage in one of about 70 boxes - is it possible to do all of this without the disc or the key? I could possibly find it but it will be no easy feat!
And last question is it possible to back up my photoshop with all of my presets actions and brushes I have created? I have read this is impossible.
Ohhh and also is there anyway of actually contacting Adobe??? There appears to be no email or phone number in support.
Thanks :-)

Contact Adobe support thru chat. They can manage deactivations for inaccessible installations.

Back end activities for Activation & Deactivation of Aggregates

Hi ,
Could any body help me to understand the back-end activites performed at the time of activation and deactivation of aggregates.
Is filling of Agreegate is same as Roll up?
What is the diffrence between de-activation and deletion of Aggregate?
Thanks.
Santanu

Hi Bose,
Activation:
In order to use an aggregate in the first place, it must be defined activated and filled.When you activate it, the required tables are created in the database from theaggregate definition. Technically speaking, an aggregate is actually a separate BasicCube with its own fact table and dimension tables. Dimension tables that agree with the InfoCube are used together. Upon creation, every aggregate is given a six-digit number that starts with the figure1. The table names that make up the logical object that is the aggregate are then derived in a similar manner, as are the table names of an InfoCube. For example, if the aggregate has the technical name 100001, the fact tables are called: /BIC/E100001 and /BIC/F100001. Its dimensions, which are not the same as those in the InfoCube,have the table names /BIC/D100001P, /BIC/D100001T and so on.
Rollup:
New data packets / requests that are loaded into the InfoCube cannot be used at first for reporting if there are aggregates that are already filled. The new packets must first be written to the aggregates by a so-called “roll-up”. In other words, data that has been recently loaded into an InfoCube is not visible for reporting, from the InfoCube or aggregates, until an aggregate roll-up takes place. During this process you can continue to report using the data that existed prior to the recent data load. The new data is only displayed by queries that are executed after a successful roll-up.

HT1420 Hi I am trying to sync my pone but wont allow me to transfer music purchased on the phone. States I have 5 authorised computers on my account but when i logg into my account it only identifies 1 so i carn't deactive? trying to backup data to put

Hi I am trying to sync my ip3 but wont allow me to transfer music purchased on the phone to itunes on the laptop.

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.
If your sister doesn't know the password for her old ID, and if her old ID is an earlier version of her current ID, she needs to temporarily recreate the old ID so you can delete if from your phone using her current password. To do this, have her go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with her current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to her old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to her old email address. You can now use the password for her current ID to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for her old account ID. After you do this, Next, have your sister recreate her current ID again by going back to https://appleid.apple.com and changing her primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.
Then your can save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to the camera roll on your device, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted. You will be prompted to either keep or delete the iCloud data from your device. If the data is already in another account you can choose Delete. If you need to migrate it to another account, choose Keep, then choose Merge when signing into the new account.

Payment Method Supplement Check Deactivation in F110 for already posted doc

Hi,
Is there a way to Payment Method Supplement Check Deactivation in F110 for already posted documents.
The background: Some invoices are posted for a vendor when there is a pmt supplmnt method "L-large". Subsequently payment method supplement in vendor master was changed to 'S'. There is debit note posted with pmt method supp 'S' in document. Now while doing F110 system is splitting up the payments based on pmt method supplmt and theline item with debit balance is going in error because of debit balance. As a result the debit balance is not getting knocked off with the credit balance line item.
Request you to help us in finding out if there is any way to generate onlyone line item in F110. Please rule out the option of changing the pmt supplmt at document level.
Regards,
nikhil

Hi Nikhil,
If you are not changing the payment supplement in the document, F110 itself will not allow you to change that. You can possibly deactivate the Payment method temporarily in customizing, run the F110 with only the affected vendors. and activate back the payment method supplement in customizing. You can activate this under APP customizing (FBZP) "All company codes" under the control data section

Deactivating Elements on an old hard disk

I had Elements 8 installed both on my Desktop and Laptop computers, but then bought Elements 9 and installed that on the Desktop - but didn't know about deactivating Elements 8 until I bought a third (Netbook) computer and wanted to install Elements 8 on this. (I want to use Elements 8 on both the Laptop and Netbook computers because Elements 9 takes up too much disk space).
Unfortunately before I could deactivate Elements 8 on the Desktop its hard dsk failed (and I no longer have it). Is there any way in which I can get that deactivation made?
Anthony.

You will need to contact Adobe support. They will do the deactivation thing for you. Please visit : http://forums.adobe.com/message/5004350#5004350

MM_EKKO Archiving - PO deactivated

Hello all,
In R/3 4.6C i made a test run for MM_EKKO archiving object, the spool result differenciate between PO archived and deactivated. Could you please explain me the difference?
One more question, the test run shouldn't se the indicator for deletion, is it correct? it seems that in my test run the system modified all PO insered into archiving selection.
Thank you for collaboration.
Fuffo

Deactivated means that you have executed a 2-step archiving.
You have different residence times. SAP set the deletion flag if residence time one is met, but residence time 2 not yet.
If both times are met, the PO gets archived.
for examples see OSS note 948493 - Residence time in new reports RM06EV47, RM06BV47
You probably have customized the test variant for MM_EKKO as production variant, other wise SAP would not have updated your database.
