Help activating Photoshop CS Education AGAIN after using AVG Tuneup

Hi,
I have owned and used Photoshop CS Education (yes i know its old) since 2008 on 1 PC and it has worked fine. Last week i installed and ran AVG Internet Securtiy 2013 and their Tuneup Utillities.
I completed all the recommended "cleans" and thought all was fine until tried to use PS a few days later and when launching an error msg stating " your computer's configuration appears to have changed since the time this product was activated. To continue using this product, please click OK to activate it again for your new system configuration, or click cancel to exit"
When you click ok you transfer to the activation screen, trying to do it over the internet fails with a msg stating the activation system is not available at this time and with options about phone activation.
I have tried over the internet for a few days with no joy so i rang the number given and the operator tried to activate over the phone but stated that their servers were down and they knew there was an issue so i should just keep trying!!!!!! and the would escalate my case to a senior.
Now i presume that i have inadvertently deleted something from the registry or similar but can anyone offer me any advice on how i get this sorted?
i have tried undoing everything including a restore but to no avail, please help.
Thanks in advance

Apparently according to what i've heard, the activation servers for cs2 and older products have been permanently disabled.
Meaning you won't be able to activate versions older than cs3 anymore.
Hopefully i'm wrong about the above.
Don't know what to tell you other than hopefully an adobe employee will see your question and give you a solution.
Or post the question here:

Thanks for your help. Actually the problem was solved when turning off the GPU. In the mean time, I would like to upgrade my Video Card, too. My existing vedio card detials are as below. May I seek your advice on any good method other than replace it.

Do I need to download Adobe Acrobat XI Pro again after using the software on a 30-day trial basis?

You mean, if you now buy it? No. You can enter a license or sign in if you have a subscription and the trial is unlocked.

Aperture 2.0 Activation Key does not work after using older trial version

I was using the installed trial version of Aperture 1.5+ in my recently purchased MacBook Pro Duo (December 2007). After using the trial version for 30 days I debated whether to take the plunge ...and then within a few days recieved word that v2.0 was out at 199$. That motivated me ...however, here I am nearly one week later without ability to activate a full blown version of 2.0.
I recieved the activation key, but it doesn't accept it in the dialog to upgrade in the trial version. Hint seems to be that it is not a serial number I am entering but an activation key.
I did not order a boxed version, so what do I do now? Support is not too helpful as I have searched Apple's website and have no clue as to where to go.
Last resort ... I want my $199 back!

did you download the trial for Aperture 2

HELP - not receiving sms on android after using ichat

For the past 3 months, I have lost the ability to receive SMS texts about once a month.
The first time it happened right after I sent somone an ichat on my ipad. Up until then, I had not used ichat for about one year, which is when I went from an iPhone to an android (and I have not used it since then either). I did some research online and found some suggestions on how to fix the issue. A few forums suggested removing my cell phone # from my Apple Support profile. A few others said to change my apple password. I did both and my messages started coming in about 3 days after they stopped.
About 3 weeks later, I stopped receiving them again. I looked at my Apple Support profile and found that my cell phone # had been added back in. Thinking that maybe Apple has some job that runs every so often and repopulates information on blank fields, I removed my cell phone # again and entered a bogus #.
Couple days ago I stopped receiving texts again. I looked at my Apple Support profile and found that the bogus # is still listed so that was not what fixed it the first time.
I have called ATT (my carrier) repeatedly and they have tried to trouble shoot my problem with no success. They suggest that it's only something that Apple can fix. I have also called Apple and they suggest that it's an ATT issue. No one has been able to help me. It really surprises me that this is not a known issue with a fix.
So here is the problem in a nutshell:
I am not receiving sms texts on my android, from anyone at all.. doesn't matter what kind of phone they have or who their carrier is.
I DO receive mms texts.
All of my texts are going through no probelm.
Does anyone have any clue how I can stop this from happening every few weeks? I want to stick with my current phone until the next iPhone comes out. Any leads on this issue are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!

I just don't understand what you mean by "invites". What kind of "invite" did you send "from another gmail to gmail"?
What about a simple email? Do you receive simple email messages to that address?

Need help activating photoshop cs5 on second machine (mac)

Hello i have adobe photoshop cs5 on my windows desktop and had installed it today on my laptop which would be my second machine, i download and get to the serial number part which i referred back to a email that activated it and put that in. Each time i try to put it in i get a message saying "that code is not valid for this product" now i noticed it said cs5.1 is that any different then just cs5?
Any help is much appreciated.

No such thing. You simply cannot use Windows serials on Mac and vice versa. Serials are platform specific. If you want to run your softwware on your Mac, you need to use Bootcamp or run an emulation environment like Paralles Desktop.

Help needed in recovering files/folders after using xfs_repair

So it started out with whammy! Some files were not playing (audio) which previously they were doing fine without any issue !
So I thought of changing the permission and got many errors regarding abnormal inodes and since I was using XFS filesystem I tried fixing the issue by using xfs_repair
Now the catch is that during the repair xfs_repair wizard deleted many folders and stated a message that "moving to lost+found"
The issue is I am not able to locate any folders in /lost+found and whats intriguing is that most of the inodes and links to the folders (deleted/moved) are still visible with ls -l
Please find the dump of the commands
1. chwon and xfs_repair - http://bpaste.net/show/173394/
2. ls -l - http://bpaste.net/show/173401/
Is there any way I can fix the partition and recover the file/folders that have been missing/moved and/or deleted?
Some help will be appreciated
regards

Can anyone please shed some light on the recovery portion!
Thanks

Photoshop CC stops working after using Load Files into Photoshop Layers in Bridge CC

Okay, so basically I selected some 40 images in .bmp to load into Photoshop, but it stops working and closes. I don't have any other versions installed and I already tried installing it again, with no avail. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Should I also try installing Bridge again?

I run Windows 7 Ultimate, I have 2.00GB of RAM with 1.74 usable, and I selected 40 images, each about 2MB.

Photoshop CS3 (Education) vs Commercial use

Hi everybody,
I bought on ebay a used but never registered version of CS3 marked on the box as "Windows | Education". My understanding was that I was buying a full retail version of CS3 for commercial use as the auction stated that this is a full, never registered CS3, without mentioning it's a Education version.
I'm not a student. So my question to you is whether I still can use this version for commercial use and what are the exact restrictions on that license? Also is it possible to upgrade such a version in the future to a commercial one or a newer CS4, etc?
Or should I just force the seller to give me my money back?
Thanks,
H

Legally, you can't buy it. The person who sold it can't sell it and
therefore you can't use it.

Lost all my google desktop page and email access...again after using Trend Micro System Tuner

I ran Trend Micro Titanium Maximum Security 2013 System Tuner and lost all the info, gadgets, etc. and even my email (Gmail) access. I was left with a black, blank page. I opened up Google Chrome and everything is still in place. This happened 3 days ago. So, yesterday I ran the system tuner again again as per my own comments from last year....had sorted it out by doing it. Still nothing. This morning.....I opened Firefox (21) and surprisingly had my main desktop page but still without my email. When I tried to open the email on it's own I still got nothing....the computer seemed to try to open it, but got "stuck" and the "loading" bar that goes from left to right never appeared. I could switch to the "slower" HTML version and the mail came up but prefer standard version. Checking on Google Chrome, everything is working just fine. I believe the Firefox Version 21 had only just been updated? Perhaps that is at the core. I really prefer Firefox but will have to continue with Google Chrome until this problem perhaps sorts itself out. Since it is loading properly on Google Chrome I don't want to set everything up again. Any suggestions?

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and the cookies from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

After using my browser (any of them) for a period of time I get a message saying that a page can't be opened. I have to reboot again. Clearing the cache doesn't help.

After using my browser (any of them) for a period of time I get a message saying that a page can't be opened. I have to reboot again. Clearing the cache doesn't help. It's very annoying. It even happened in the middle of a chat with Apple online support. I'd be very grateful for help!

Several things come to mind ... when you say your wife uses the same system with a different login and doesn't have issues, that suggests looking at your login items. Go to System Preferences (on your dock or on your hard drive in Applications), accounts, and on your account look at login items. Anything there that shouldn't be or isn't used? If you don't know, create a new account for yourself with no login items, and see if you still have the issue.
Next, I would run OnyX, which is a free disk maintenance program. You can download it from http://www.titanium.free.fr/download.php . Do the tasks on the cleaning and maintenance tabs. Before using any disk maintenance software, you should have a system backup. I periodically run it, and others have found that it can help with performance.
You might look at how you're system is using memory. You should have enough but it's easy to check. Bring up the Activity Monitor (on your hard drive in Applications/Utilities), and look at the system memory tab. Note page ins and page outs. If page outs are 10% to 15% more than page ins, you can use more memory for the programs you run. A page out occurs when memory is full and OS X has to write a section of memory to the hard drive. Too much of this can really impact performance. The optimal situation is for page outs to be zero. Note these values reset on a system boot.

Photoshop CC 2014 freezes after 20 minutes of use. I can only minimize it. It even crashes sometimes. Trying to get help from Photoshop GPU FAQ but in vain.

I have formatted my laptop, Reinstalled all my Adobe softwares and still the same problem continues.
Photoshop sometimes gets stuck in between while working no matter what the file size and dimensions. Its not about lagging. The screen is just stationary and I can't access any of Photoshop's commands for the stationary period of some seconds or a minute. I can only minimize it. Photoshop even crashes at times.
I have latest wacom drivers installed 5.3.5-5, Bamboo dock installed, and NVIDIA, GT 740M version 347.52. I have verified the problem with Wacom but they say the tablet doesn't have a problem. I have even tried using Intuos 5. When I use the zoom command with mouse the document zooms in and out continuously without any control.

If you have both a Nvidia GPU and Intel GPU on your machine have you disabled the Intel GPU in windows Device manager. Adobe in the GPU FAQ clearly state that you may have Photoshop problems if your running machine configuration has multiple GPU that are different GPU.
