Got an update and a new PC, do I need to install both on the new machine?

I have cs5 on a laptop that I am destroying. I bought a new tower and have an upgrade to 5.5. I downloaded 5.5 to the new machine, (thinking I could just put in both serial #'s) but now it tells me I can't use the update on the new machine because it can't find the old copy. Does this mean I have to download CS5 to the new machine and THEN update to 5.5? if so isn't that just a huge waste of space on my machine? I have both serial #'s. thoughts?

Typcially the program asks for the older serial number as I understand it (I have not done an install this way). Actually 5.5 is an update to 5 I think. Thus you would need the number of the prior version, not the 5 version. At least those are my thoughts.

My I Phone got an update and I have now lost my you tube, You tell me that I can down load you tube, can I get the same version, so I don't have to learn something new? Also, how do I get rid of Passbook?

YouTube is no longer native in iOS. There are loads of posts on this, so the search bar can be your friend. There is a YouTube app in the App Store. Download it and you'll have YouTube.
You can NOT get rid of Passbook. It is a new Apple Native App and is built into the iOS. If you don't like it, you can put in a folder or on another page, but you can't delete anything Native.

Welcome to Apple Communities
Start the printer, go to System Preferences > Print and Scan, press the + button and select the printer. Your printer and Mac must be connected to the same Wi-Fi

You can set up more than one device on your computer, and iTunes will remember the settings for each of them:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
But you'll have to use your Apple ID to sync bought media to her device. Disable all other things you don't want to sync like photos, contacts, etc.

HT204135 I update my Mac to version 10.9.2 and now my printer does not work anymore. I did all the software updates and I do not understand why my mac does not recognize the printer anymore?

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

Basically... I had an ipod touch sync'd to my dads i tunes.. i then got an iphone and created my own apple id.. how could i transfer the media from my ipod which was used on a different apple id onto my own account without everything deleting

Syncing an iDevice to a computer does not remove content from the computer.
Syncing an iDevice to a computer that it does not normally sync with will remove the content from that device.
If the media was acquired with a different Apple ID it is in no way linked to your Apple ID.

I was in the middle of the latest update and my iPhone now says it needs to restored will I be able to back it up first. I have photos on it I can NOT loses

I was in the middle of the latest update and my iPhone now says it needs to restored will I be able to back it up first. I have photos on it I can NOT lose

It should have backed up automatically at the start of the update process. And you should be saving photos from your phone to your computer regularly, just like you would with any digital camera. If you were not doing this you MAY lose the photos, but if your backup at the start of the update was successful you will not. Just DO NOT sync after the update, until you have restore the backup and verified that it is OK.
What error message did you get during the update? Before you restore do the following:
Reboot your computer
Connect to a USB port on the computer directly, not a hub
disable your antivirus and firewall
Launch iTunes
Finally, connect the phone and restore.

When did you get this firmware version? My TBD is at 22.2 and the TBD bus is at 23.4. I thought I had the latest firmware.

I did the 8.0.2 update and no longer have my speak to text microphone down by the smileys. Don't want to use audio text. How can I get this back?

Hey there tjbliven,
It sounds like you are not able to use the dictation feature of iOS 8, becuase the microphone icon is missing. It seems to me like Siri may be turned off, which would cause the icon to not be there:
Siri settings - iPhone
To set options for Siri, go to Settings > General > Siri. Options include:
Turning Siri on or off
That should get the dictation feature back for you.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

HT204409 I updated and now I cant connect to wifi, how can I remove the update

I updated and now I cant connect to wifi, how can I remove the update.My other stuff works, Iphone wifes Ipad etc

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

Please be specific about the updates.
Were they Apple updates from Software Update or were they downloaded updates, including 3rd party updates from a website (Including Apple's)?

I know this isn't really the right place to ask, but could someone explain why when I open Portal 2, that I got off steam and spent a whole day downloading, keeps crashing when I click the Campaign/Single Player mode. It Freezes and then crashes. Help!

Uhm, why don't you go to the right place, then? There are several Steam/Portal forums out there...

reinstall iPhoto - go to your receipts folder ("Your hard drive" ==> library ==> receipts) and remove any iPhoto receipts and reinstall from the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

9.1. is an update and can only be installed if you have purchased iLife '11 on DVD or iPhoto '11 from the App store - and iPhoto '11 will not run on OS 10.5.8 - or 10.5.1

I cannot send a message to a non-apple phone and an apple phone in a group message. Both of the names will turn green as though they are non-apple phones, even when one is an apple user.
