How to downgrade to 10.7.8 without reinstalling adobe cs5 software?

I Installed Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro i7 and it ***! Every little task takes a second or 2 or even 3 longer. Basic stuff from previewing images, tracking acrcross menus, evening renaming files! Constantly getting the wheel of death for every little task - not worth upgrading, my mac was running a lot better on Snow leapord 10.7.8.

Ok thanks, yeah you're right it's 10.6.8. Does this mean I need to re-install Adobe cs5 though? I don't have a copy od CS5 - I didn't have to re-install CS5 while upgrading to mountain lion.
To reinstall Adode CS5 you will need the discs you purcased and your license code that came with it.

With Lion, How Can I Erase the Hard Drive and Reinstall The System Software?

I plan on buying a used iMac with a Core 2 Duo so that I can run Lion. Since Lion can only be purchased at the Mac App store what if I needed to erase my hard drive and re-install the system software. How can I do this without a DVD with the OS on it like I have for Snow Leapard. I suppose that I could boot from my Snow Leapard DVD and do the erase. Then, I supposed I would be able to download Lion again from the Mac App Store without paying for it again. But, how would you erase a hard drive and reinstall the system software when purchasing a new Mac with Lion already installed and no DVD at all with the OS on it?
-- Kaydell

When someone purchases any Apple computer with a DVD Drive, they should have recieved two DVDs... One contains the Operating System (up to Snow Leopard, Lion no longer ships on DVD) and the other contains the SYSTEM SOFTWARE (i.e. iLife and iWork). To install the software, they just insert the DVD with the SYSTEM SOFTWARE into any compatible Mac and run the installer. There is no need to erase the hard drive to install SYSTEM SOFTWARE. Maybe a friend can let you borrow the SYSTEM SOFTWARE DVD. The other option is to purchase the software via the App Store.
FYI... App Store purchases are linked to the PURCHASER'S APPLE ID. So if you buy a used Mac from a friend and that Mac already has Lion installed on it,that Lion purchase is linked to YOUR FRIEND'S APPLE ID, not yours. So if you want to download Lion again, you will have to enter your FRIEND'S APPLE ID AND PASSWORD. You can always have your friend re-download Lion and make you a DVD copy.

Reinstall Adobe CS5.5 without CD

Hello,
My MacBook Pro is broken. After it's fixed I will lose my licenced Adobe CS5.5.
I am not able to get the original CD back to reinstall again, so what can I do to keep my licenced programs?
How can I reinstall it without the original CD? With a serial code?
Please help me with this. I need to work so I need Adobe again
Greetings,
Carlinsky

Thank you very much for your quick response.
Just one other question (or two): When I bought Adobe CS5.5, it said I could use it on max. 5 computers. With the same serial code as I used until today, I can still use the same licence?
Can I do this on another Mac of mine? Or only on the laptop I used before?
And: Where can I find the serial code? Is it one particular code or special code per program?

How to turn off floating interface on mac version adobe cs5?

How can I turn off floating interface on mac version adobe cs5? It is very hard and confusing to work with the new interface and I want a gray (relaxing) background as it was in earlier versions for Windows.
I do not want to see the desktop while working in Photoshop...
Thank You!

For most applications you can enable the application frame. Look under the Windows menu.

How do you rotate a Tiff picture without using Vision Development software?

Hi:
Does anybody know how to rotate a TIFF picture in Labview if I don't have the complete Vision Development package?
I do have the limited Vision Acquisition software that allows me to do some basic manipulation but not rotate.
The pic is a binary string.
Thanks

Especially easy are the simple rotations (90, 180, 270 degrees)
see: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&view=by_date_ascending&message.id=235791
But arbitrary rotations are not that hard either:
see: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=BreakPoint&message.id=748#M748
(you could even use bilinear interpolation for extra fidelity since the pixels don't map 1:1 for arbitrary rotations, , see http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&view=by_date_ascending&message.id=166566#M166566)

How do you change out hard drives without losing all your software license keys

I have lots of cash tied up in software.

To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application SuperDuper. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case then format and partition the new drive and clone your old drive to the new one. Check that it's set up right by booting up from the external drive. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one and put your old one in the external case.
Here's a cheap SATA external hard drive case on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Vantec-NexStar-2-5-Inch-External-Enclosure/dp/B002JQNXZC/r ef=pd_cp_pc_0

Can I Install Mountain Lion without reinstalling Adobe CS4?

Adobe CS4 edu version is difficult to get authorized and set up with seriel numbers.
I won't install Mountain Lion, until I hear that it shouldn't step on My Adobe CS4 Creative Suite 4 Design Premium.
Has anyone installed the new OS successfully?

I installed with CS5 on my hard drive, I did not have any issues, but I did backup first and suggest that you do as well.

InDesign CS3 crashes when I export a PDF. I have updated it to 5.0.4 but it still crashed. I bought it as part of the Design Premium pack. How do I uninstall InDesignCS3 and reinstall the original software?

Hi, the title says it all
I've been trying to find out on the Adobe site how to uninstall CS3 Design Premium and then reinstall the original software in the hope that this will eliminate the crashing problem, which only started yesterday.
You're help will be very much appreciated.

Run the cleaner tool and reinstall.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Just be aware that none of this will matter if you are using a newer version of e.g. Acrobat that by ways of updates may introduce/ have introduced an incompatible version of one of the PDF libraries commonly shared and used by all Adobe programs. you have to tread lightly and be careful...

HT4623 How to downgrade iPhone from ios6 to ios5 without jailbreaking?

How to downgrade iPhone from ios6 to ios5 without jailbreaking?
It is uncomfortable to use Appstore and uninformative Apple maps.
I regret, that I updated my iOS5, can I get it back?

Sadly, Apple is amazingly good at keeping users from downgrading an iPhone. For some reason, a prior update (5.1.1) bricked my 3GS, and that's how I learned the hard way how firmly Apple had control of the upgrade/downgrad process. I find that annoying, as well as the fact that Apple "pushes" (figureatively and literally) updates on users, many of whom simply update immediately, without realizing there could be a downside. I've been amazed at how many non-techy iPhone using friends have complained to me about maps, and they wish they had never updated to iOS 6.
Anyway, I'm still using iOS 5 on my iPhone 4S, as I just feel too attached to my good old Google-based Map app (and the web version of Google Maps is really very different than the App version -- I tried it, thinking I would finally update my iPhone, but was really dissatisfied with the web version). I do know iOS 6 is superior in many ways, but for now, I am just that attached to my good old Map app.

How to Downgrade to Snow Leopard from Retail disk

Hi there
We have a new iMac at work bought through Apple's refurb site. It is running the latest version of Lion with all firmware updates, etc. It is replacing a G5 running Tiger.
The problem is this – it is supposed to be running Adobe CS5, but also CS4 (and Office would be handly also)
We have other macs here, some running Leopard, some Snow Leopard, but the Adobe apps are not happy at all in Lion, and InDesign CS4 crashes all the time and won't even print without jumping through a million hoops (obviously the Office 2004 app won't run at all).
Due to the level of issues we are having with Lion (and the reliability of the all the software under Snow Leopard) I am looking to downgrade to Snow Leopard.
I have a full retail version of Snow Leopard (10.6.3), but the Lion system won't boot from the disk, it just gets to the grey screen, and beeps three times. I presume this means that there isn't the required drivers on the disk to run the hardware, or there's a firmware update that doesn't allow installation.
Am i totally stuck with this OS? I was looking to install Snow Leopard on a partiton, but when i run the install disk from the Lion desktop, it reports that I can't run it because 'I have Install Mac OS X 23.1.1.'
I would really like to just have Snow Leopard on my iMac, or failing that, Lion on a small partition, and Snow Leopard and all the programs on the larger partition that I would boot from.
Any ideas how I can get this done? Adobe CS suite is just rubbish on Lion macs, and runs worse than on my old Tiger mac.
Thanks in advance,
M.

oh right - so clone Mac B onto Mac A HD in taget disk mode using SuperDuper (or Carbon Copy Cloner), then i'll be able to boot Mac A in SL.
I understand that Mac A wouldn't boot, I was going to make Mac A's SL partition the start-up partition for Mac B, and then try and install OS updates to 10.6.8 from Mac B. Once updates are installed - change Mac B's startup disk back, and then surely Mac A would be able to boot all on it's own...
I'm not sure if this would work in Target Disk Mode, but if you succeed in cloning Mac B to Mac A, you may be able to apply the Combo 10.6.8 update to Mac A while booting from Mac B. The key is that the Combo updater may be able to customize the Snow Leopard installation for the hardware it's actually being applied to. Unless I missed it, we don't really know which iMac you have since it's a refurb. According to Mactracker, only the Late 2011 21.5" comes only with Lion and might not accept Snow Leopard at all. At the same time, it has the same Model Identifier as the Mid 2011, which came with 10.6.6 or 10.6.7 so it might work.
If at that point Mac A does boot in Snow Leopard, I'd advise running the 10.6.8 Combo updater again while booting from Mac A just to be safe.
