Error 150:30 had to move to larger hard drive.  Once migrated to new hard drive none of my adobe products work

I recently upgraded to a new larger hard drive.  In migrating everything over things seem to have worked out well, but non of my adobe products work any more.  I get the message error #150:30 What can I do?  If I reinstall each of these software packages, will I loose my templates, brushes and so forth?

Migrating software programs from one machine or HD seldom works.  You need to actually *install* software from downloads or installation disks.  You don't mention which product ver you have.
Run the CS or CC Cleaner Tools below to wipe all traces of Adobe products from your HD.  Then re-install the customary way.

    You cannot download the upgrade to Snow Leopard.
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
             7. Xserve (Early 2009)
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
         Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
             See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

  • Had to move files to external drive: now EXSP24 doesnt list them

    The EXSP24 currently shows my GB World Jampack files only, I had a different list (with many submenus) before installing this....in order to install that pack I had to clear out room for it (dumb to force users to only install on the boot up drive !! arg)- thereby necessitating moving alot of media files around....
    is it possible to repoint the EXSP24 to any/all offloaded .aiff files ? Its not clear from its pop up menu if this might be done. My MBP drive is full, so I had to move all media elsewhere. I had thought I even moved the Jampack World files offline too

    I can confirm - all media files have been moved off my MBP hard drive, to an external FW drive. Somehow, when I launch Logic - the app still can play the EXSP files (GB World Jam Pack).
    Not sure how to get it to recognize newly added files... or at least I would like to go back to the default install.

  • What is error code 2002 "Bad Public Movie Atom"

    I just purchased QT 7 Pro for Windows.  Installation & update correctly performed.  When I attempted to import .mov file from my underwater video camera, I got the message.  What do I do?

    I have the same problem
    mp4s created with nero recode worked well with itunes.
    Rebuilt my machine with Windows Vista installed latest iTunes and quick time and now 25% of the movies return a public atom error.
    Interestingly the same movies on my network drive play OK, but if you copy them to My Videos you get error 2002 public atom (but only for the ones that I originally found did not play).
    I have created new mp4s with Recode and they donot play except when moved to the network drive.
    I have reinstalled quicktime and Vista with no effect.I think this is a Vista/Itunes/Quicktime compatibilty issue.
    Can any one else help?

  • I want to transfer a movie I have downloaded from itunes to my new IPAD. I have been on the itunes help menu, it tells me to look under 'devices' tab for IPAD. BUT there is no 'devices' tab and it does not list my new IPAD. Help!

    I want to transfer a movie I have bought in itunes to my new IPAD. I have been trying to work how to do this for 3 days now. I have accessed all the itunes help and forums and wiki online. They all tell me to go to the DEVICES tab on itunes and select IPAD then sync. YUP seem simple, BUT there is not DEVICES tab listed on my itunes and it does not list IPAD. Years ago I set up my IPOD no problem and that is listed, but not the new IPAD. Can anyone help? I would love to be able to actually watch films on my IPAD!! thanks

    If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
    If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
    Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • I work with a Mac & I had to restore my computer for my time machine back-up.  When I attempt to open/edit a photo with either camera raw or photoshop I get the following error message: Error 150:30 , it also sys that licensing for the product has stopped

    I work with a Mac & I had to restore my computer for my time machine back-up.  When I attempt to open/edit a photo with either camera raw or photoshop I get the following error message: Error 150:30 , it also sys that licensing for the product has stopped working?

    Unfortunately when Adobe products are restored from backup, especial CS4 and especially Mac, it breaks licensing.
    There is a python script included in the license recovery kit that should work if you are familiar with Terminal.
    If not, you must reinstall your CS4 suite.  You don't need to delete your preferences, so it should be the same as before.

  • Getting Error 150:30 in Photoshop CS4

    Had a HD crash and reinstalled CS4 on the new HD and get error 150:30.
    Does anyone know how to correct and activate PS, thank you?

    Are you running LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app? That's for 10.6.8
    If you type in the password, the cursor will not move or show dots. So you ignore that, simply type the password and press enter.

    Possibly there is something in system preferences to change? I turned off Firewall and allow downloads from all parties.

    150:30 means the licensing failed. Photoshop can't be moved like other programs from another drive or from backup.
    I would suggest a reinstall to fix it. Anytime you move Photoshop from from drive to another, it breaks licensing. A install is the quickest way. to fix it.
    When you are done with the install, apply all CS4 updates.  Product updates

  • Photoshop CS4 - Licensing Error 150:30

    I have a MacBook with the OS X Maverick Operating System and have had no prior issues using my Photoshop CS4. My computer recently crashed and had to have my operating system re-installed. I tried to open up Photoshop today and this window popped up: "Licensing for this product has stopped working". I tried restarting the computer like the window mentioned and that did nothing. I also tried the solutions listed on the Adobe website for the Error: 150:30 and nothing has worked. My main problem is I cannot finish the "solutions" because I cannot locate the folder "FlexNet" or "FlexNet Licensing" or anything of that nature that is referred to in the solutions.

    The Licensing repair tool does work. OSX 10.7 and above:
    Download and open LicenseRecovery111.dmg on your Desktop
    Open Terminal and type sudo and leave a space. <do not press "Enter" yet>.
    Open the License Folder on the opened LicenseRecovery111.dmg and drag
    "LicenseRecover.py" file into the Terminal Window.
    The sudo command and path to the .py file should look like the screenshot below.
    Press Enter to begin
    Type in your password, but know that you will not see dots or asterisks as you type.
    Press Enter again, let the script run and finish. You should be able to run Photoshop now.
    (If this answer solves it, mark it as "correct" or get back to me if it doesn't.)
