How can I activate my computer?

Been trying for 3 days to activate my laptop (Vista op system) for Adobe Digital Editions. When I enter my Adobe ID and password, I always encounter this error: "Activation Server error code: E_AUTH_NOT_READY." Would like to be able to transfer books to my Nook but can't get past this first step.

As I read your first post, you can't even activate ADE on the computer, you haven't had the chance to try the Nook yet?
Normally I'd say keep trying, but 3 days seems enough ....
Try disabling your firewall temporarily during registration and see if that helps.
Try with ADE v1.7.2 instead of V2.0. It is more reliable in various ways.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.

HOW can i activate my computer to play music if 5 have already been activ

I already have 5 computers active but i cant de activate any of them because either they are used or i dont have the computer any more so i cant de activate them.how do i de activate my computers that i no longer have???

The ONLY way is to go onto your account in the music store and hit the "Deauthorize ALL" button. This option is not to be taken lightly. The button only appears once a year so say you use it today Aug 24th 2006. It will not appear til Aug 24th 2007 even if you reach the max of 5 before that date

I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed in two computers. The hard drive of my home computer crashed and I had no time to deactivate the software. The hard drive needed to be formatted. How can I activate the software CS5 again ? Thank you for an answer.

If it's the same computer, same CPU and same HD, no de-activation or re-activation should be necessary.
Install from scratch and apply all updates manually.
Please do a forum search. I and others have repeatedly answered the question about failed updates of CS5 a whole bunch of times recently.
Bottom line: the Adobe auto updater is utterly useless in CS5 and prior versions. You need to download the updates and apply them manually yourself.
I and others have even supplied the links for Mac and Win, which you haven't even bothered to specify.

How can I activate an old version of Dreamweaver on a new computer? (2004 version)

I had Dreamweaver 2004 on my old laptop which recently crashed. I need to transfer the program to my new computer. Online activation has been shut down for this version. How can I activate it?

Keep in mind that 2004 software is more than a decade old now. Adobe no longer supports it. And it was never intended to run on modern operating systems so you may experience problems. Also, web standards have changed a LOT in 10 years. This might be a good opportunity to update your software.

What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system was it running on and will it be running on?
On how many computers do you already have this same purchased activated serial number? Assuming just the computer that crashed?
If just that one crashed computer, then just install the program from your installation files or installation disc.
But, make sure your installation files or installation disc for the crashed computer will be supported by the new computer.
If you already have the same purchased activated serial number on two computers (crashed and another one), then you will need to deactivate
this purchased activated serial number for the other non crashed computer before trying to install on the new computer.
We can give you more details on Deactivation once we know the program version.
Adobe allows the purchased activated serial number on no more than 2 of your computers. And you cannot use them at the same time.
Please review. If any questions or need clarification, please ask.
Thank you.

Add On...If more sorting out is required, then Adobe will need to do it since it is the only one to take care of activation issues. We are not Adobe.

I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate. The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

How can I activate the need of licens?
The reason can be Adobe policy, I have change computer, added products, stop using any product and so on.

Hans,
When you no longer need the Adobe software on a computer or you wish to move it to another one, you should deactivate the software.
See this link: how to deactivate software. Installation rules will let you install the software on two computers of the same platform (both windows or both mac) but you are limited to running it on only one at a time. If you have only installed it once, you should be able to install it on the other computer. If you have already installed the software twice and you don't have access to your previous computer or you upgraded your computer's hardware, replace a hard drive, upgraded your operating system, or reformatted your drive before deactivating your software, you can ask Adobe Support to help you deactivate the software from the machine. Just have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, and then contact support. Then you can install the software from the links below and enter your serial number to re-activate the software.
If you need to find your serial number, sign in to your Adobe account. On the Manage Accounts page that appears, all of your registered products and their serial numbers are listed in the Plans & Products section. For more information on locating serial numbers, or on registering a serial number, please see Find a serial number.

To setup an iPod you need to either.
- Set it up via wifi but that only works if the iPod has iOS 5 or later.
- Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via wifi.

I have a US iTunes account but no longer have a US credit card for set up, everything I purchase is with apple gift cards, how can I activate match?

You will only be able to use one account at a time with the Apple TV. This will mean that you can only rent or purchase content from one account, you would need to log out and into the other account in order to rent or purchase from that.
You should however, be able to use content from both accounts in iTunes on your computer, provided that the content from the account that you are not logged into is authorised to be played on that computer. Consequently you should be able to AirPlay content from both accounts to the Apple TV from iTunes or play content from both accounts via the computer section on the Apple TV.

How can I activate Boot Camp Assistant?

How can I activate Boot Camp? I want to install an educational library that is on a CD. People that have PC's can use the CD. I have a mac mini and I want to open the CD to read/review. I have the Snow Leopard model.

Open Boot Camp Assistant in the Utilities folder. You will see the following:
Click on the Print Installation & Setup Guide button. Click the OK button in the dropdown panel. You will now see the main Print panel. You can now print the document to your printer. If you prefer to make a PDF file you can read on the computer instead, then select Save as PDF from the PDF dropdown menu on the lower left. Save it to the location of your choice.
Now, read this document carefully in order to follow the proper procedures for creating a Windows partition on your hard drive to which you can install Windows 7 from a retail Windows 7 installer DVD.
Other options for running Windows:
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
6. Last is Q. Q is a freeware emulator that is compatible with Intel Macs. It is much slower than the virtualization software, Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.
