Does anyone know if the "convert to trial on launch" issue has a solution?

I have CS6 (purchase, not cloud) and have to enter my serial number pretty much every time I open one of the programs. Opening a file is now an 11 step process. I have been patient (though annoyed, of course with the disruption to the workflow) that Adobe will come through and solve this, but as the weeks go by I wonder if it is actually being addressed? I am a graphic design student so I am running these programs every day.
According to this, it was a know issue being worked on. But this was written a while ago:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/64-bit-creative-suite-applications-repeatedly.htm l
This week I decided to try contacting Tech Support. They had me uninstall, run Adobe cleaner, reinstall. The problem continues.
Kim: In your experience has that solved this problem? I know there have been many that have this issue and I did not come across that as a solution. I will try this though.
Subhabrata: Yes, It will be fine after re install.
Kim: Okay, I will try that.
Subhabrata: Because this is an issue with the permission
So do I bother with Tech Support again? If there is no solution yet, I don't want to run in circles trying things that won't work just to pacify me.

Hi Jeff,
First off thanks for taking a look.
I am running Windows 7 on a fairly new Dell (Oct 2012). Interesting about the 'identifying as two computers'. I do have a partition and it is set up as a dual boot sytem (Windows 7 installed on both partitions) We do this whenever we buy a new computer to create a clean install - since removing all the junk Dell loads in is impossible - we reinstall Windows on the new partition. Once everything is running smoothly we would normally remove the partition with the "junk" install. I never got around to removing the partition and the dual boot. I don't know if this would be related to the problem or not - and CS6 is only installed once on the computer but felt it was worth mentioning. Would the activation be accessing info at the bios level?
Let me know if you think this could be the issue. I can go in and do the partition deletion anytime.
Kim

    Does anyone know how to convert the output from the standard SAP report to xml?

    since it a standard report which you cannot modify you can only do the following.
    submit report exporting list to memory
    then
    list from memory and then
    use the returned itab along with CALL TRNSFORMATION key word to convert to xml.
    but this only going to place the whole list content (including data and formating lines,etc) into a xml element and not the actual data alone in the list .

  • Does anyone know how to convert an XML file to a readable file?

    All,
    I have been using an APP called "SMS Backup & Restore" to backup my message conversations to my Laptop PC.  It works fine BUT the backup file, once in my PC, has an XML extent such as "filename.XML"
    I would like to read and/or print and/or save the text message file so does anyone know how to convert the XML file to something else so it shows all the messages without all the formatting instructions.   
    When I try to see the XML file it shows all the formatting.  If I replace the .XML with .TXT that too shows all the formatting mixed in with the text message narrative.
    When I look at the XML file in SMS Backup & Restore in the Charge phone it looks great showing all the messages just as they were on the phones display.  The problem with this is that there is no way to print or read or save the messages as they appear in the file from the phone itself.  I tried screen capture but if you have, let's say, a 28 message conversation you have to do 7 or 8 screen captures to get them all.
    If only I could convert the XML in my PC to something that is printable or savable or readable that would be the "cats meow."
    Anyone know how???

    Ann154,
    You were correct again.  I deleted everything I had done to date and re-did the entire SMS backup of my 28 message conversation again and YES I was able to open it using IE-8.  It looks great and it prints great and life is good!  I am going to go make a donation.
    Thanks again for the help.  I marked this thread as answered by you.

  • HT3775 I have an .avi file Quicktime is refusing to play, yet the information says Quicktime does play .avi files. Does anyone know what the problem is?

    I have an .avi file Quicktime is refusing to play, yet the information says Quicktime does play .avi files. Does anyone know what the problem is?

    AVI is a legacy file container originated by Microsoft back in 1992 and which has not been officially supported for more than a decade. Like the container, many of the codecs commonly used to create AVI content are also "legacy" compression formats most often supported on PC/Windows platforms. In fact, some codecs have never been transcoded for Mac use. Of those that have, many never made the transition to Mac OS X or the transition to Intel-based platforms. Those codecs that are still supported on the Mac can normally be found in the avi to quicktime converter available as an online download. While some common AVI compression formats may be supported by the QT X Player app, QT 7 currently provides a more compatible AVI playback environment for most "legacy" compression formats. If the codec(s) used in your AVI files are not supported by the avi to quicktime converter for QT use, you can try the VLC media player which may still support more esoteric compression formats. If  VLC does not support the files, the normal approach is to discover which specific audio and/or video codecs were used to create the file and perform an Internet search to see if a compatible Mac component is available for download.

  • Does anyone know how to convert iTunes TV subscription downloads to files that I can put on a backup drive and watch on my TV vs. MacBook?

    I purchased a TV series from iTunes and downloaded the HD version. I then copied it to a backup drive so I could plug it in to my DVD player to watch. This would not work. Does anyone know how to convert the files so they are watchable on TV rather than on my MacBook?

    Video in the new iOS is under the application Videos. You should be able to find things there.

  • Does anyone know how to convert a novel manuscript, written in Pages, to an Amazon e-book and CreateSpace document?

    Does anyone know how to convert a novel manuscript, written in Pages, to an Amazon e-book and CreateSpace document?  Do I need to purchase Word for my iBook?

    Susan,
    You need to create a pdf file of the document to print using CreateSpace. Check their size requirements and set up your document to fit those, make sure your cover has the correct bleed if the cover image goes "off the edge", and work your way through the guided system on CreateSpace. If you know someone who has done a book there, they might be able to help you, too. I will be doing a book from an author who used Pages soon, too, and though I use InDesign, he does not. I don't anticipate any problems with it, as a pdf is a file structure with which CreateSpace is familiar.
    You can also use their more tutorial-like set-up, too, perhaps, at least the first time through the process. I typically help first-time users through the process when I've helped create their books, too. It's mostly straight-forward, minus the upload problem I'm currently dealing with with my computer, of course!

  • Does anyone know how to convert file into a .png?

    Does anyone know how to convert file into a .png?
    Thanks

    I tried to give an answer with less steps. I know it's a Pages file & all you have to do is select & copy the content in your Pages file & then open Preview.app. Next time I'll include the exporting to PDF & opening that in Preview.app or in Pages go to File > Print > click on the PDF button in the lower left of the print window & choose Open in Preview.

  • Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    I'm guessing that your using One Step DVD . This will only work with one movie at a time.
    Create a new project and all you should have to do is drag your movies from your movie folder onto your iDVD project. You can add as many movies as you like but obviously you can't exceed the maximum total DVD size.
    Encoding can take a long time depending on the original file format, but you should be able to use pretty much any file format you can play with Quicktime.

  • HT3819 how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

    If you never bought the product then you cannot get the serial number.

  • Does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    Several ways to get similar results.  Image > Adjustments > Posturize with low values similar to what you'd use n Cutout.  This is the most flexible way I can think of as you keep the image in RGB mode with layers intact.  A more radical approach would be to reduce bit depth using Indexed Colour.  You'll need to experiment with settings, try changing Forced to Primaries, and Matte to Foreground Color.  There's no going back from this route, although you can change the mode back to RGB to re-enable layers, adjustment layers etc.
    A nice thing about the Filter gallery filters is that you can change the layer to a Smart object with all the control that gives you.
    Now if only this forum could filter out bizarre content.

    This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.

  • Does anyone know what the "Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad! errors are in WCS

    Does anyone know what the "Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad! errors are in WCS? 
    I get this when pushing an AP template to six new 3502i series access points.  The error reads like this:
    *** Apply Result for AP 'NameOfAPhere(C0:FF:EE:C0:F:EE)' ***
    **AP Parameters**
    Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad!C0:FF:EE:C0:F:EE,secondaryMwar,No access
    MAC address has been changes to protect the names of the innocent...
    The rest of the template appears to push.  The 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n parameters show "success".
    Anyone have the magic decoder ring for what these messages are referring to so that I can go fix the issue?
    Thanks in adavance!

    Hi,
    Two things :
    1- Can you refresh configs from WLC to WCS and then give it a try ?
    2- Is WCS using the right read-write community string for this WLC ?
       (Since we see a "No Access" message in the error)
    Thanks..Salil
