How to transfer program and license to a new computer?

Purchase a new laptop ant would like to transfer the program to it. I'm not sure how.

1. Plug-in CD/DVD drives are cheap, easy to use and pretty much essential, otherwise much of the software you paid for is lost forever.
2. You CAN in some cases download Acrobat Pro. But don't rely on that, keep a backup - not on your computer! - What version do you have?
3. If you get an "already activated" error you will need to contact Adobe. This usually happens on the third install.

    How to transfer contacts and massages from iphone to computer?

    Hi, Shahmeer23c
    iCloud is useful for a lot of things and backing up your iPhone's data is one of them. Included in the data and files that you can safely keep using iCloud are your contacts. The following instructions detail how to transfer contacts from iPhone to computer.
    Step 1. On your iPhone, tap on Settings. On the "Settings" menu, select "iCloud". You will then be taken to the iCloud Settings.
    Step 2. Enable the "Contacts" setting and should you be informed that you'll have to merge your contacts to iCloud, tap "Merge".
    Step 3. Now on your computer, go to iCloud.com and login with your iCloud credentials.
    Step 4. Once you're logged in, click on the Contacts icon to access your address book and all iCloud features for the contacts you've uploaded.
    Step 5. In the address book, click on the cog icon at the lower-left portion, click "Select All", and "Export vCard" afterwards. 
    Step 6. iCloud will then give you a vCard that you can store on your computer. It contains all the contacts you've uploaded to iCloud using your iPhone.

  • HT1420 how to transfer music and pictures from iphone to computer

    how to transfer music and pictures from iphone to computer

    If the music was purchased from iTunes then you should be able to copy them over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes 11 on your computer). If the music came from other sources and you don't have a copy of them anywhere else, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    For photos taken with the phone then on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard, and on a Mac you can use Image Capture, iPhoto or Aperture : copying photos. To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • How do I transfer (re-install) licensed CS2, to new computer

    I have licensed copies of CS2, Adobe Acrobat Distiller 8, Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Photoshop Album 2.0 on an old computer that is being replaced with a new Intel machine. I hope to transfer or re-install my Adobe software onto my new computer without issue, but I am not familiar with procedure to accomplish this. Perhaps it can just be installed as licensed as before. The old computer is going to a grandson and I want to erase and re-format the hard drive, but not until I am sure my production software is working. Suggestions sincerely requested on how to do this.

    On the assumption you have backed up your music to an external hard drive, just connect that to the new computer and copy stuff over.
    If you are on a MAC and the old machine is not dead then you can hook the two up and copy over.
    And I daresay you can do the same if you have a PC and the original is not dead.

  • How to transfer music and photos to a new pc from ipad

    hi everyone,

    thnx

    Music purchased from iTunes should have copied over via Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g. CDs) you will either need to use your backup or find a third-party program for your computer that can copy them off your iPad and iPhone.
    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page -  on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard, on a Mac Aperture, iPhoto or Image Capture

    Every couple of years, we get pushed into "hardware upgrade".  I need to continue using Acrobat.  What do I have to do to get it up and running licensed on my new machine?
    (also, why can't I find this addressed in FAQ??)

    1. http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html

    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a dl problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem.

  • How to transfer elements 12 from old to new computer

    how can i transfer my elements 12 from my old computer to my new computer

    stevengibson
    To give a safe answer, best to know what was the old computer operating system, what is the new one, and did you purchase an online download to the old computer from Adobe or did you  install to the old computer via an installation disc from boxed packaging of the product.
    The generalized answer is you deactivate Premiere Elements 12 on the old computer (Help Menu/Sign Out). It is up to you after that if you want to uninstall the deactivated program from the old computer. Deactivation is not the same as uninstall.
    Then assuming no little technical complications of details, you install Premiere Elements 12 on the new computer using
    a. Installation files that you saved to your computer or that you have download from "My Orders" at Adobe
    or
    b. Installation disc from boxed packaging.
    Please fill in more details so we do not fall into any unexpected technicalities.
    Thanks.

  • How to transfer songs from Ipod to a New Computer?

    Hey guys
    How can I transfer Ipod music to a new computer? My old computer crashed, and My itunes folders are gone.

    There is an ez way to do this without any programs at all. All you have to do is this: Plug in your iPod and double click my computer. Now click "tools>folder options." In the window that appears, click the "view" tab. Now there should be an option that says "show hidden files and folders." Select that option and click ok. Now open up ur ipod directory. There should be a semi-transparent folder along with the other folders in your ipod directory (Calendar, Contacts, Images, etc.) Open this folder and then open the "Music" folder. Displayed here are a number of folders called "F30" or 31, 32, 33 and so on. In these folders are all your song files on ur iPod. If you save these folders onto your computer you will be able to save them into your itunes library. If the music file names were changed, the information displayed in itunes should still be the same for all the songs and if you had album art it still should be there. After you save your music onto your computer, i suggest that you go back to the folder options and hide the hidden folders again, because some hidden files on the computer are necessary for the computer to run and may be accedentally deleted if still visible, causing the computer to not function correctly. And that is all there is to it. There is no programs needed for this simple process.

  • Computer broken, how to transfer music from ipod to the new computer?

    Hi,
    so the problem is that my computer got broken and all my music went down with that also. Now i want to put the music on my ipod to my new computer so how do I do it? Or can I even do it? I hope so.
    So, please tell me!
    Thanks

    Connect your iPod to your new computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How to transfer my itunes library to a new computer

    How to transfer my existing itunes library to a new laptop?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
