How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it?

Hello
How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it before I make a new installation on the same computer?
Regards
Mikael

Mikael,
Not really, because it made me go to slipstreamed installations that proved even better. It takes some time to make a slipstream, but in the end it proves even better IMO. When Win7 comes out, one of my first steps will be to make a slipstreamed version and post a guide here on how to make one tuned to your needs. This is a very old screenshot, way outdated, but it shows what a slipstream installation can do for you:
Just insert the DVD and have some coffee. When you have finished your coffee and the PC has finished it's installation, you are ready to roll/edit. All tweaks will have been performed, logon scripts executed, etcetera.

  • How many times can you reinstall Mountain Lion?

    Since I bought the Early 2013 15" MacBook Pro retina laptop used only 17 battery cycles on it now (2.7 with 16GB ram running Mt. Lion) computer I have not reset it. I spoke to Apple and it is registered in my name, I made a new Admin. account and password and Apple had me delete the original owners. I took off anything he had left on it. Applecare also I bought in my name. Apple said I didn't have to reset it and would be fine so I left it. They deauthorized the previous iunes account and the previous owner gave me his ID to deauthorize the computer. It was already deauthorized when I checked. He then changed his password for his security. It runs beautifully and has a Samsung screen.
    I deleted the iLife apps and were going to buy them in my name (as his ID came up for updates) but now can't redownload in my name as it says I need Maverick OSon it to do so. I left the Mountain Lion 10.8.5 on it. If I contact Apple will they give me a redemption code for my name or how do I get older versions?
    If I reset to new how many times am I able to reinstall Mountain Lion? If I decide to sell it later will I be able to reset it again with no problem for the new owner?
    Thank you for your help. This forum is a source for many of us new owners to solve things.

    As long as you do the download with your Apple ID, it'll be in your name. Reverting back can be a little involved. If you have that in mind, you should make a full backup of your clean install of ML and save it somewhere. Then you can just copy the image back with Carbon Copy Cloner. External drives are cheap, that's how I'd do it.

  • How many times can I reinstall Leopard on a same mac?

    Hi, I have the Leopard Family Edition and we had to reinstall in two computers, and I want to know if the licenses are not affected by this. And where are they, by the way?
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    A family edition gives you license to install on up to 5 Macs that version of Leopard.
    An operating system may be reinstalled on any one Mac without losing any licenses. There is no registration code to worry about. You can skip the registration screen. It is an on-your-honor registration system. Since we can only post about legal items, I recommend you stick to the honorable thing and only install on 5 individual Macs. And erase or archive and install on those 5 Macs as many times as it is necessary to isolate any problems you run into.

  • How many times can I reinstall as a clean install with a family pack?

    Title says it all.
    Thanks for anyones help.

    If you are reinstalling the OS on a computer for which you already had a licensed copy - as many times as you like.

  • How many times can I reinstall ipod to same computer?

    I've had continual problems with my computer over the last few years that I've had my ipod and have had to wipe the hard drive several times. When I reinstall my ipod this time, I will be on number 4. I remember reading somewhere that you can only reinstall the same ipod 5 times. Is that correct? Is there any way to get around this or will I be forced to buy a whole new ipod? Why do they do this anyway?

    iPods are not installed on to a computer.
    You just use them.
    Any songs which you have purchased thru iTunes can be authorized to be played on 5 different computers at any one time. The authorized computers can be changed by deauthorizing one to use a different one.

    How many times can you install Lightroom 5? My problem is that I have saved my programs on C. To I have more space, I want to save my programs now on E. Can I now uninstall Lightroom and reinstall from C to E? Can I use the same license code as the first installation?

    Thank you for your answers, it helps me a lot.
    But sorry for my ignorance. I understand how you mean it, but I don't know how to do it. I'm scared to lose the settings/edits of the images.

  • How Many Times Can I Use The Same Serial Number For Adobe Creative Suite 4?

    I have design standard and was told I can use the same serial number on multiple computers. How many time can I use it? And say I install it on the maximum number of computers, but get a new computer, can I uninstall it on one of the old computers and use it on the new one? And can I use the programs on both computers simultaneously or do I have to use them one at a time?

    Broadly speaking, it depends on the type of license you have.
    Specifically, if you have a single license then officially, you should only install it once on one computer.
    Practically, (unless it has changed with CS4) you maybe able to install it on more then one computer, BUT can only run one instance of the software at a time. You can not run more then one instance of the software concurrently; i.e. you can't run Dreamweaver on Computer 1 and Photoshop on Computer 2. That would be two instances, and is not permitted.
    This is my understanding. I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong

    Sorry Fred you are wrong.
    If you have a single license you can install it on as many computers as you like. you can only activate the suite on two computers at anyone time. Work and Home or as many of us do it Desktop and Laptop. You can not use the computers simultaneously. You only have 20 activation/deactivations so use them wisely. Student versions only have one activation. You can not break up the suite installs the suite is considered one application.

  • How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer?

    How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer? Will the leopard dvd run out of installations and not let you install anymore?

    Hi colman Prez;
    Now that the funny comments have been made, I have a serious question and that why are you worry about reinstalling Leopard with an Erase & Install which is what I take that you mean when you say clean install. In actually fact there is no such thing in OS X as a clean install.
    I am curious because in all the years I have used OS X, I have yet to do an Erase & Install yet.
    I know with Windows that they suggest reformatting and reinstalling at the drop of a hat but that isn't true with OS X.

  • How many times can I install Photoshop and Premiere Elements 13?

    How many times can I install Photoshop and Premiere Elements 13?

    mbuenger
    Are you referring to how many times can I install, uninstall, reinstall Photoshop Elements 13 or Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer?
    Or, how many of your computers can have a same purchased activated serial number at the same time for either of these products?
    If the former, I know of no limit.
    If the latter, the answer would be as John as mentioned.

  • Hi there: how many times can I downloads a application I bought from you?

    how many times can I download an application bought from you?

    If you are asking about your personal Mac, and you want to delete FCPX and then reinstall it, then I agree with Tom, you can do it is many times as you want.
    If, however, you are asking about other Macs that you own or control, then here is the language from the Apple End User License Agreement
    http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/FinalCutPro.pdf
    to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running OS X (“Mac Computer”) that you own or control; and
    (ii) if you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, to download, install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software for use either: (a) by a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) that you own or control, or (b) by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac
    Computer that you own or control. For example, a single employee may use the Apple Software on both the employee’s desktop Mac Computer and laptop Mac Computer, or multiple students may serially use the Apple Software on a single Mac Computer located at a resource center or library.

  • How many times can I review my account ?????????

    I have reviewed my account three times with my PayPal info and received confirmation from my PayPal Account but it still won't let me log in. It wants me to review EVERY time. Let me know if anyone can shed some light on this problem.
    This is a REAL PAIN.

  • How many times can a team member install Creative Cloud for teams ?

    How many times can a team member install Creative Cloud for teams ?
    Is it possible for one team member to install it for example on a portable mac and a desktop pc at the same time?

    From the Creative Cloud FAQ at https://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html under the Purchasing and getting started section:
    On how many computers can I install the software I download from Creative Cloud?
    You can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information.

  • How many times can you resend an iTunes Gift Card?

    Tried sending an iTunes gift card to a @facebook account but the recipient hasn't received it.
    Is it possible to send to another of their @facebook accounts and if that also fails then to a conventional account?
    I guess my question is how many times can you resend on Gift Card and to how many different email accounts?

    To use an iTune Gift Card to buy books...
    Open iTunes on your computer and click on the iTunes Store.
    You'll need to be signed in...
    Click on the little House icon in the dark gray bar across the top. (or Shift+Command+H)
    On the right side of the page under Quick Links click Redeem and enter your code.
    Then it will show your credit balance in the dark gray bar across the top next to your account name to let you know how much you have to spend.
    Then as you buy books, it'll deduct from the credit balanace.
    There is a distinction between, iTunes Gift Card and Apple Gift Card.
    Apple Gift Card: can be used to purchase Apple hardware and accessories at any Apple Retail Store, the Apple Online Store...
    iTunes Gift Card: To give music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, or anything on the iTunes Store, the App Store, the iBooks Store or the Mac App Store, select an iTunes Gift Card

    Welcome to the forums,
    Your license allows you to install FCPS2 on one desktop and one laptop.
    G.
    To expand on that, you can install it on two machines but you're only allowed to run it on one machine at a time. In fact, if you have both copies running and the machines connected to the same network, you will get an error message and the application will quit.

  • How many times can the photoshop code be used?  Like can I download it on one computer then later download it on a different computer?

    Basically the title explains my question.  How many times can the photos hop code be used?  Like can I download it on one computer then later download it on a different computer?

    You're allowed two installations/registrations. Anything above that requires deregistration on one of those computers.
    Take note that if this is Photoshop CC, it's as easy as signing out on a system; there aren't any serial numbers involved as it's all tied to your Adobe ID.
