How do I recover an Illustrator CS4 key from OSX?

I just purchased a new iMac for one of our Graphics employees, and in addition to Adobe CC she needs Illustrator CS5 installed, because there is a plugin we use for a client that isn't available for versions newer than CS5. The problem I'm running in to is our CS5 copy was an upgrade from CS4 and naturally this was before we started using the Adobe TLP so we bought everything retail and nobody can find our CS4 licensing info.
Illustrator CS4 is still installed on her current Mac, but I can't seem to find a way to retrieve the key on OSX, does anyone know how I can do it?

I was able to recover the key using the freeware version of this: Mac Product Key Finder. Recover lost product keys for Mac applications

  • How can I download my Illustrator CS4?

    I bought Illustrator CS4 directly from Adobe online; I never had a disk.  My hard drive has gone whacko-, I had to replace it.  Now I can't get illustrator to run, and the link I had that used to bring me to the download site no longer has a download link.  I don't mind buying software online; but I didn't get a disk.  I don't want to have to buy an upgrade just because my hard disk crashed but by removing the link to my software, it appears they're trying to make me do that.  I still have the serial number and it was a full install, not an upgrade.  Anybody know what I can do about this?
    Thank you.

    How can I recover a delete accidently genre from my playlist? It's all gone even the genre title

    As long as you don't delete the trash, the files should be recoverable.
    I suspect using the Put Back command could take a long time, so be patient.
    If your Time Machine backups are mixed with your daughter's backups you might want to buy a larger drive and move the Time Machine files to the new drive.
    Regarding missing photos in iPhoto...There might be options to rebuild/recover that data from iPhoto rather than trying to revert to a Time Machine backup.
    Check out this third party app, iPhoto Library Manager. It has a demo.

    Options for a larger drive.
    I like the Seagate USB 3.0 Backup plus drives. Works on USB 2.0 ports. They come formatted for PC but easy to format in Disk Utility.
    I don't recommend Western Digital because of the boot problem with some of their drives.
    LaCie makes good drives.
    All Mac formatted drives will cost more and it’s easy to reformat with Disk Utility. Do not use the software that comes with the drives. It’s recommended that you use Apple’s Disk Utility.
    Prices vary but this gives you an idea of what you’ll find. As you notice the second and third TB is usually only $15 more per TB. Normally, you’ll find these prices but right now the 1T is more than the 2T
    Seagate Backup Plus 1 TB USB 3.0 $85
    Seagate Backup Plus 2 TB USB 3.0 $99
    Seagate Backup Plus 3 TB USB 3.0 $115
    I have seen the 3T on sale for $99.
    Locally, Best Buy seems to have the best prices.

  • How do i change the Std. confirm key from 'AB' to 'Z1', receiving ACK IDOC.

    Hi,
    How do i change the Std. confirm key from 'AB' to 'Z1', when loading ACK IDOC.
    Thanks

    Hi Jorge,
    Thanks for your help.
    I change the output mode to "Collect IDocs" method, if I use SAP standard function POIM (RCCLMDAT), it will depend on change pointer to generate IDoc, and it includes function: RSEOUT00 ( and MASS_RSEOUT00 ) to collect and send IDoc.
    The collect table is BDCP.

  • How to access kuler in Illustrator cs4

    I am still using Illustrator cs4, and I was working on a file, and when I tried to access Kuler, it said not connected.  I checked my internet connection and it is working fine.I even tried to access the update server and it said not available.  I was just wondering how to resolve the issue,  do I need to reinstall the software. any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Dreamweaver is not an image editor.
    It uses HTML and CSS to insert colours in pages. HTML and CSS only do solid colors.
    If you need gradients, you must create them in an image editor such as Photoshop or Fireworks then insert the image into your webpage in DW using CSS.

  • How do i recover a deleted imessage conversation from my macbook pro?

    How can i recover a conversation that has been deleted from my imessages? I havent backed up my computer with time machine.

    Hi,
    If you had a Time Machine Backup you could go to the ~/Library/Messages and for the  iMessages Restore an older chat.db items and the other .db items that are there.
    If you were saving chats on closing them you may find some or all in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.ichat/Data/Library/Messages/Archive and looking through the dated folders.
    To access the ~/Library use the Finder > Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key and selecting the Library that appears in the list.
    Other than that it is gone.
    The iMessages are Pushed from the server to the various devices that are "registered" to receive them.
    This will continue for about 2 days if one device is Off Line.

  • How can I recover a book I started from a file?

    I have recently installed the iPhoto 9.2.1 from App Store.
    I am having many problems with iPhoto after an electrical cut when I was working with it.
    First, when I opened iPhoto immediately after that, many of the events appeared in black box, when I open a file of these,  black boxes appears, photos could not being seeing, but click in one, the photo appears.
    I realized that those files I did not working with them for long.
    I am interested to recover them, How could I do it?
    I copy iPhoto Library into a external hard disc to safe and start from the beginning. I need to work in one book.
    Second,The photos for that book were in the external hard disc. I imported them into iPhoto and start working. I thought that everything was solved out.
    This morning when I opened the computer and iPhoto, My work, begun the previous day, was not there, iPhoto ask me if I want to recover iPhoto Library and  thinking that that was my last work, I said yes.
    But it was not, It was the old library, but the work that interests me has disappeared.
    How can I recover this work I started? It must be in some place.
    Thanks for your advice

    Sorry, it'll be impossible for any of us (the forum regulars) to post in this thread without making obvious suggestions like this; it's safe to ignore these suggestions, I understand that you are powerless here to make reasonable suggestions like "Fire the incompetent translation firm that can't keep up with its clients and retain one that actually has the licenses for the apps necessary to complete the project."  If nothing else, all of the people who search Google for the phrase "translation downsave CS5 CS4 book" will learn that the best answer is "tell your translation supplier that they will lose your business if they fail to upgrade."
    But in your case - no, I know of no such script to re-save a CS4 book from IDMLs spat out of CS5. The scripting forum is thataway; maybe they know of a script someone else has already written for this purpose. Mostly because, especically in a book file, one of the steps before saving the INDDs and book in CS4 should be "a human compares the IDML opened in CS4 against the INDDs in CS5, or PDFs generated from same, before Saving As CS4 INDD."

  • How can I recover only 1 Note deleted from my iPhone 4S

    I accidentally deleted 1 important note from my Notes and it got sync'd so it's deleted from all devices.
    How can i recover that note? My iPhone was backed up and that note is probably in the back up, but i don't want to restore the entire device to that back up.
    Is there a way to recover just one deleted note?

    Sorry, restore from backup is all or nothing deal.

    I'm not a Mac user, but google showed this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3824044?start=0&tstart=0.  If that doesn't help, you should google "sync notes to macbook" and see if you find something that does.

  • Upgrading to Illustrator CS4 english from FreeHand MX french

    I wonder if a french version's FreeHand serial number will be accepted by an english version of the Illustrator CS4 upgrade ?
    Does anybody have an idea ?
    Thanks,
    Boyan

    Call customer service and ask if it was the English version it would have to be Great Britain as they say on my master collection package Only for distribution in North America so you might not even be able to activate it or register it with an address in France.
    BTW I do work in Paris and I noticed that the cost of anything photographic or computer related was way higher then here in the States. Even removable media. I bought a portable hard drive by La Cie there and it costs $100 more in paris then the New York. That was $300 as opposed to $200 here.
    I agree I think it is a bit unfair. However it is my understanding that the salaries in Europe are generally higher then in New York which means they are very much higher then the rest of the U.S. which may be the reason. So I think it kind of even outs. Also the problem might be on your side of the fence as the import laws require fees or tariffs to be paid and might also level fines against companies that allow certain products to circumvent local import rules.
    I know once a I sent some slides to the UK and I wrote a value on them of $300, but was not aware that it meant an invoice value, the customs imposed a $179 import fee on them and there was no if ands or buts about it.
    Though they still use film in Europe it is kind of cray to do so I can get a pack of Ready Load 4X5 film for about $75.00 it cost more then twice that in Paris. It is considered a competing product so the tariff is huge but some people tell me it is not the Tariff or the VAT.
    But my experience says it is and also it might be more expensive to do business in Europe.
    So it is hard to tell why and some products from overseas are cheaper as well in the us then they are in US then in Europe fm where they originate?
    I wonder what really drives this discrepancy.
