How to changing onto a new machine without original disks

My imac is unstable, constantly freezes - I want to use my macbook pro. I have Indesign CS4, probably upgraded from pageMaker 6.5 Plus. I have the serial number for that but  can't find one for InDesign. I have tried to copy from Time machine disk onto macbook but get error message about the licence code 150:30. I have deactivated the copy on the  iMac. Please help,

I'd agree with Bob. There's no problem installing CS4. You can download a clean install from here:
Other downloads
You may need to clean off the stuff from Time Machine with the Adobe Cleaner here:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
But if you have no serial number, and no proof of purchase, you're still out of luck.

  • How to migrate to a newer phone without original itunes?

    Hello.. I have an iPhone 3G running version 3.1.2. I'd like to upgrade to a 4S or maybe 5. When I first got the 3G I had a Mac G4 MDD running 10.5 and I used iTunes to manage the phone. I also used "push" to sync the phone, the Mac, and my MobileMe account (emails, calendars, contacts, etc..)
    Fast forward 4 years... That Mac is dead. There is another Mac (a G4 Mini with 10.5 on it) and an older version of iTunes that has my entire music library on it. I also have a PC w/ XP that can run iTunes 10, but I don't know what will happen if I sync a phone to an XP box. I'm afraid to plug in the phone because I don't want that message asking me to wipe out the phone and marry it to a new iTunes. MobileMe is gone. I did switch to iCloud but lost a lot of sync ability because the phone OS is so old. My calendar lives only on the phone. I also have apps purchased via the phone that are not backed up to iTunes.
    So... What do I have to look out for if I switch to a new phone? And, how do I connect it to a new iTunes (The PC has iTunes 10, but the Mini has all the music) somewhere so I can manage it?
    Thanks for any help!
    PS - I salvaged the hard disk from the dead G4. I have an ATA to firewire adapter but a power spike one day blew the only firewire port on the Mini, so no booting to target disk mode to fix this. I also have an ATA to USB adapter, so I can mount the drive on the Mini and salvage files, if need be. I can't mount it on the PC because it's an HFS+ volume.

    how can i sync music from my phone onto my new computer without losing it all? my old computer's hard drive crashed so it is unusable.

    If you do not have a back up of the crashed hard drive you can download an app to copy from the iPhone to iTunes on the new hard drive.
    I have used Pod2Mac.  There is also Pod2PC.
    There are numerous choices, some free, some payed.  Do a Google search.

  • How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot get the music off it.

    How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot access any of the old music. All I can find are what was on my iPhone, but that's not what I want. I need all my old music from my old Mac, which has been wiped clean by IT at my old job. BUT, I did have iCloud at that time and I thought all my music would be accessible through it. I don't understand the Cloud! And I'm thinking spending $24.99 on iTunes Match was a waste of money because I still can't access my old music.

    When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
    have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
    remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Yes. You are allowed to install PSE on two computers at once, but if you don't need it on the first computer anymore, go to editor>help>sign out to deactivate it and free up one of your activations for future use.

    Hello
    I bought my wife a new MacBook Pro, in setting it up for her, I took her Time Machine external drive to migrate onto the new machine but her old MBP not only was on 10.6, it was my old machine which I was still Administrator for.
    i plugged in the external drive to start the migration process after entering her name and username from the old machine which gave me the options on transferring the old data over.
    I also unchecked the Administrative end that had my info hoping that ONLY her data, files, etc., would be the ones sent over to her new machine which I wanted her to be the ONLY Administrator for. All went like clockwork until the restart.
    Normally the screen should show the username and only need the password but both entries were blank, as in ‘Other’ sign in option available only. I entered her name and password, nothing….used her username and password, nothing. Used my old Administrator name and password, NOTHING!
    I tried defaulting to factory settings from the Restore feature but it directs me to notify Apple. I tried in Terminal to change the password, nothing. I tried to boot from MY external drive and it doesn’t recognize it. I tried to even use my external drive which actually has the Mavericks upgrade, nothing!
    Basically I can only get the startup screen which isn’t accepting the username/password or the Restore feature which doesn’t offer any options helpful!
    Please, how do I start from scratch and start over here? Or simply change the Administrator name and password so I can proceed with everything thats already on there? I wish I could even boot from another drive but no luck on anything!

    First, on the old machine, make your wife's account an admin one. Log into it and delete yours. Then, update the TM backup. Finally, use Internet recovery mode, ⌘⌥R, erase the HD, and restore the OS. One first boot, follow the steps outlined in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

  • I have an iPad and and iPhone. They share an iCloud and I want separate iCloud accounts. How do I create a new account without losing any information? I want to keep the original account on one device.

    I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?

  • How can I use a new computer without deleting everything on iPod?

    Hey Guys
    I need a bit of help.
    My old computer died, it was running Windows XP. I've got myself a new computer running Windows 7.
    I have a copy of my iTunes folders from my old computer (taken 2 days before it died)
    How can I use a new computer without deleting everything on iPod touch?
    I've imported all the folders (music, apps etc) into the new computer's iTunes, but when I sync my iPod
    I receive a window asking if i want to sync i need to erase and replace with the iTunes library on the computer.
    I particularly don't want to do this.
    My wife also uses my iTunes for her iPhone.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup. Then restore the iPod from that backup and sync as necessary.

  • How can I create a new entry without using LOV for foreign keys.

    Referring to TUHRA sample application based on HR database schema. JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4
    How can I create a new employee without using LOV for the foreign key "job_id".
    On the first page I would like to choose the job_title from adf read-only table.
    After clicking on the "create new employee button" a creation form appears in which the job_id field is set with previous selection.

    Hi,
    usually the foreign key is only set if the VO you select is dependent from a master. If e.g. you have DepartmentsVO1 that has an EmployeeVO3 as its nested VO, then creating a new instance of employees automatically add the foreign key. If you add EmployeesVO1, which is not dependent to DepartmensVO1, then the foreign key is not set. So if this is the case in THURA (keep in mind that this is not an Oracle demo but a sample used in a book about ADF) then all you need is to take the independent VO when building the new employee form.
