Didn't deactivate CS4 on previous 2 MAC's... HELP?

Hi guys,
I stupidly just dragged and deleted on my previous macbook and assumed this would be ok. Since then I've just sold my imac and done the same thing, thinking it will be ok!
Downloaded CS4 today on my new macbook pro, for it to tell me it is being used twice already, which it isn't :-( I just assumed it would of done it its self when I dragged deleted and then restored the mac's.
Is there anything I can do now to sort this?!
Thanks

Is it possible to deactivate CS4 from a PC and transfer to a Mac without the original discs?

Is it possible to deactivate CS4 from a PC and transfer to a Mac without the original discs? The original discs were thrown away in a house move, but I'd like to transfer my CS4 applications from a PC to a Mac; is there anything I can do? Where is the serial number located?

Licenses are platform specific, so a Windows version will not install/activate on a Mac. Platform swaps are only supported for the most recent release (CS6). The only way you might be able to do that is to have a Windows emulator installed on the Mac so that you have the required environment.

How do I re-install Elements 10 from an old computer to a new computer? I already deleted it off the old computer and didn't deactivate it. Now my serial number won't work.

Hello! I have Photoshop Elements 10 on a PC. Deleted it from the PC and didn't deactivate it. Now I'm trying to install on my MAC. Saying serial number is in-valid. Help! Thanks!

Well, first of all is this a boxed version? If it's a download your serial number is invalid because downloads are single platform while boxed serial numbers work on both.

Test: Using Crop marks in indesign CS4 with Epson 3800 Mac 10.5.7

Jun 19, 2009 9:35 PM
Crop marks using indesign CS4 with Epson 3800 Mac 10.5.7
My crop marks and pages are printing larger than my document sizes. My paper size is 13x19, so I should have crop marks at the exact corners of the page sizes. But indesign is printing the entire document larger. So my document which is 11x14.75 is now printing 11.25x15.5. All my settings are correct. So, is anyone else using an Epson 3800 with CS4 indesign having issues such as the above? And can I ask (beg) a few of you to do a test print with crop marks and let me know the results?
My workflow has been completely stalled because I can't get my pages to print the right sizes with the crop marks at the right measurements. I'm printing a photo portfolio on the Lumijet double sided paper and "when" it did work awhile back sometime several months ago, the finals looked great. I've already reinstalled both the Epson 3800 driver and the Indesign CS4 software, but the results are still the same.
So, here are my settings:
document size: 11x14.75
in the print panel:
Printer: Epson 3800
Setup: Paper size: Super A3/B13x19, scale 100% width & height, page position Centered
Marks & Bleed: Marks: "Crop Marks" checked. offset: 0, weight: .25, Bleed and Slug: Use Document bleed settings, include slug area. The bleed is 0 for top, bottom, left and right
Color Management: Document profile: Adobe RGB, Options: Indesign handles colors, Printer Profile: (A custom made profile using Xrite for the 3800 with Lumijet paper)
The settings on the Epson 3800
Epson 3800 Printer
Presets (set for the profile mentioned above)
No Color management
Sometimes, on a whim, the printer and indesign cooperate together like good little children should. But not often. And I can not conclude why they are nice to each other sometimes, but given the same detailed data at other times, they fight.
If anyone could run through a similar process using indesign with a photo layout and setting up the printer settings for both the Epson 3800 and in the indesign program and let me know their results, I would value your conclusions very much. You don't even have to waste paper or ink. Finally, after wasting so many pages of paper and of ink. I deleted the photos from the page, and printed it blank with only the crop marks for me to measure if it was coming out right or not.
Thank you for any response. And feel free to call me if you want to vent about Epson 3800's or about Indesign CS4 anytime! I'm up late.... 646 256 8853.

I specified the paper size as strictly 13x19, no boarderless, no retain size. Same problem. I also did as you suggested below. The pdf document does remain true to the document. As a pdf doc. I changed the color mgmt to Adobe rgb 1998. It looks okay, but not as lively as I get when printing correctly with my color mgmt working and in sync.
Your final question about simply using photoshop. Well... I might go back to it and give up on Indesign if this is the case that it won't simply crop my documents to the sizes that I input them to be cropped as. But, I am using Indesign so that I can create a page layout that I can't do in Photoshop. My folio is about 25 or more pages with double page spreads. I am printing on a two-sided Lumijet paper and my folio was custom designed to be cut out at 11x14.75. If and when it is printed correctly, I am printing on both sides of the paper and trimming it to exact size.
It sounds as if you have exhausted the potential problems and don't have a clear explanation for why the doc isn't printing correctly in Indesign either with the color mgmt. or the document sizes. I'll try one more print using a different color profile similar enough to get at minimum, an okay print. If it doesn't print at least okay, then it isn't most likely my profile..... Okay done. Crazy. The color is inaccurate, but for some reason or another, the document size printed correctly. It measured exactly 11x14.75. What I have done during this period of time is:
First) I did as you suggested and turned the Print to Adobe PDF 9 and created a print there. I measured it and it did measure correctly. I didn't love the color, but... at least it is measuring correctly.
Second) I turned the Printer back to Epson 3800 (I'm beginning to think that this simple gesture was what caused the printer to print correctly) I didn't change any settings, but I did make sure that they were set correctly as before. The paper size was set to 13x19. When I make sure this setting is right in the "printer" dialogue for the Epson 3800, and then switch back to ID, the printer dialogue in Id changes to "Define by Printer." But I changed nothing, other than the profile to an older one that I used before. The color is still inaccurate, but at least for two prints just now back to back, the measurements were correct. What to do? Lol.
Thanks again for all of your time spent trying to resolve this issue.
Sincerely,
Thaddeus

Stolen computer, need to deactivate CS4 so I can reinstall.

So my computer was stolen, but in order to reinstall CS4 on my new mac book I need to deactivate it on my old (stolen) computer. Can I do this remotely?
I have my serial code, but have maxed out on the number of computers I have it on.

Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.

Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.com has rejected my password. The password is correct (I'm able to check my e-mail through my browser at me.com), but for some reason Mail keeps on rejecting it. I usually don't have to input my password at all in Mail. Any clue how to fix this? I haven't changed anything at all on my laptop.

I did change my apple ID password though...

I'm trying to migrate my CS4 from my old Mac to my new one. When trying to open photoshop, i get a message saying "Licensing for this product has stopped working." And "Error: 150:30" I don't know what to do from here. Can someone help me? Thanks.

"Migrating" and/or "transferring" an application is not just asking for trouble but demanding it!
Always install an Adobe application from scratch, from the original media: CD or download.

Transferring Old CS4 from my old Mac to my New Mac Error 6.

I am trying to transfer my old CS4 from my old Mac to a new Mac which doesn't have a disc drive. I copied all the files to a memory stick and the pulled them from the stick into the application folder on my new Mac but the software will not start and say Licensing Error 6.
It this the right way to transfer my old CS4 from my old Mac to the new one which doesn't have a disc drive? and if so what does Error 6 mean and how to I get that sorted so I can work with my CS4 on my new Mac?
Also I would like to have PS and AI in my doc - I am so bad to computer stuff so please explain it all in very plain language. ( :
Kind Regards
D

You can't do that. Download the most current version of PS CS4 for Mac from the Adobe download site and install it. Then you can copy over your preference file and any edits you have done in PS CS4 from the old Mac.
But if this new Mac you have is running Mavericks or Yosemite CS4 might not work on those newer versions of OS X. Not sure, I gave up on Mac OS X about a year ago.

Uninstall and/or Deactivate CS4 before Installing CS5?

(Win 7 64, Production Premium CS4)
I know this question has been asked a lot; I've read a dozen threads on the subject but I can't find a definitive answer ... so I thought I'd ask:
Should I uninstall Prod Prem CS4 first, before I install Prod Prem CS5?
Is there a risk that the CS5 upgrade installer won't run, because it doesn't "see" a prior, qualifying version?
(maybe the CS5 installer needs to find certain CS4 files to validate the upgrade?)
Thank you All.
ps - I'd like to run both versions at once but I'm trying to conserve space on my OS/Apps disk, which is an SSD.
thanks again,
Richard

Okay never mind, thanks anyway - I spoke with Adobe Chat Support and got the answer - Adobe recommends keeping the existing version and upgrading next to it, but if you want to conserve space you can uninstall (and deactivate) CS4 first.
The CS5 upgrade installer does not need to "see" any files from a prior version, you simply use your CS4 (or whatever version you're upgrading from) serial number to activate CS5.5.

Do we know if CS4 will work with Mac OS 10.7 Lion?

I wondered if anyone has heard about the potential friendliness of Creative Suite CS4 with the new Mac OS, 10.7. Anyone?

I would contact Adobe Tech Support about that. It seems that new editions of Apple OSes sometimes lose compatibility with legacy software. Adobe might only be able to tell you about products that are in their current lifecycle and I'm not sure if CS4 has reached its EOL (end of life) yet.

Hi dsalacain,
Are you trying to run the setup from network location. If yes please copy the installation file to the desktop of the Mac and try installing again.
