HT1338 Upgrading software to use the cloub

I have a MAC OSx version 10.5.8 and i am trying to upgrade the software to set up iCloud. I can't seem to figure out how I upgrade the 10.5.8 to the 10.7.4 or later, and there does not appear to be any automatic upgrades available for my system.
Any advice?

First Step is to get OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.x .

No, if they bought it, then its theirs. You may wish to contract iTS for options in case it was part of the Mac Acceptance.

I purchased Elements 13 and everything downloaded great. When I go to license the software before use the code wont accept letters, only numbers. My serial number has both.

I can't use the software before a license it. I am on the page to type in the serial number and it won't take letters only numbers. This is very frustrating.

Hi John,
It seems you have got a redemption code. Try to follow the link mentioned below.

Can I download and activate software but use the license key on the box?

I purchased a new laptop. It has no DVD or CD-ROM drive. I purchased Photoshop CS3 and Acrobat Pro8 with my old laptop. Can I download the software from the Adobe site and activate it with the software key on the box?

The serial number should put an end to the trial period. If it is still presenting it as a trial, select whichever option is presented for using a serial number / key to activate it and that should alleviate the issue.
If you should have an issue getting it to activate, contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone.

Upgrading Photoshop CS6 using the cloud.

Every time I try to upgrade Photoshop CS6 with the cloud I get error U44MIP7. Then after a few weeks it upgrades ok. Any ideas? I don't think Adobe is really ready to prime time on the cloud yet.

It appears the 13.0.1.2 update is the problem.
Here is a summary of the fix:
1) UNinstall Photoshop (no need to uninstall anything else in CS6)
2) Reboot your computer (just to make sure nothing is hanging around in memory)
3) Install Photoshop and immediately quit the Creative Cloud app
4) Run photoshop
5) Go to HELP > UPDATES
6) EXPAND the update group and UNselect the 13.0.1.2 update
7) Apply the 13.1.2 update

My iMac crashes using iPhoto, the database constantly needs repair, and upgrading software patches causes the screen to hang

I am not sure what is going on. I have kept current with all upgrades and now when I attempt upgrades my system will hang on the white screen, forcing me to turn the machine off and on.
iPhoto has been really buggy (latest version) - keeps telling me that I need to repair my photos. Last night I was working on a photo book and it crashed twice.
Once it rebooted the iMac, the second time while uploading the book it crashed iPhoto.
Since this is past apple care - I am not sure what to do. I am in the US and I can't find any information on pricing for a visit to the genius bar.
The only thing I have going on with this machine is two seperate user accounts that access a shared iPhoto and Music library on the shared portion of the HD.
Thanks for any help.

Back up all data, then follow the instructions in the support article linked below:
iPhoto '11: If you see a message that iPhoto can’t access one or more photo files
If you still have problems, try the other options in the "First Aid" dialog.

I am currently using CS6 Creative Cloud, why can't I upgrade to CS2014 using the same membership?

I pay a monthly fee of $29.99 for Creative Cloud membership. The version I have been using is CS6. When I try to upgrade to the newest version, it tells me I have a 30 day free trial. When I try to activate, it asks for a redemption code, which I don't have. All I want to do is keep my membership but access the latest versions of the software.
Thank you

Why Has Adobe Removed The Option For Individuals To Purchase Software And Not Use The Cloud?

As an individual who has been using Adobe products for about 25 years for my personal use and not as a business, I find the new policy of "renting" the software and using "The Cloud" for, at least in my case, a prohibitive monthly fee, to be totally unacceptable and will result in my no longer being able to afford using Adobe products. I do not understand why Adobe cannot offer their new cloud program for individuals and companies that may wish to use the new system and have the resources to pay in perpertuity, but they should also have the option for those of us who would rather purchase upgrades for whatever programs we use and keep them on our computer without "The Cloud" service.
I am 67 years old and living on a fixed income. I basically use four adobe programs... Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects, and Audition as I do volunteer work at a local non-profit radio and tv organization. If I were to "rent" those individually it would cost $80 per month... so I could take the next deal and get access to all software for $50 per month... I cannot afford either of those. If I could upgrade one or more of the programs every two or three years... keeping them on my computer and not using "The Cloud," then continuing to use the products would be doable. However, being forced into a program that requires a monthly fee and use of "The Cloud" which I do not need to use, seems totally unfair. I certainly understand that there are businesses and individuals who will love the new program, but why not have the option? Or perhaps a "Senior" discount as you do for educators and students?
Something to think about. It seems Adobe may be moving to the "Cable Television" model of monthly fees that will go no where but up.

Hey there, you may have heard that Adobe is continuing to sell and support CS6 for customers who prefer traditional licensing. It's last year's version instead of the latest-and-greatest CC release, but it's something to consider if that's important to you.
As far as a "senior discount" on Adobe software, there has never been one – but one thing to consider is becoming a student or teacher because there is no age restriction on that, in which case you may become eligible for education discounts.
Hope this helps.

Owner of CS6 Master. Unaccidentally installed Acrobat XI Professional. Was always trial - not upgrade. Uninstalled Acrobat XI Pro. Can I just download the Acrobat X Pro and install it using the CS6 Master License number ?

Hi, I believe I made a mistake when installed Acrobat XI Professional over the CS6 Master version Acrobat X Professional. The result ended up with running a trial version of Acrobat XI Professional. I wanted to upgrade but not using the subscription version, but rather buy the software and own it, like with my CS6 Master Software. Well, I now uninstalled the Acrobat XI Professional and wondering if I now can download the Acrobat X Pro software, install it and use the CS6 Master license number to get going ?
Kind Regards
Gunnar

Well. After downloading the separate full version of Acrobat X Professional, it could not be installed using the serial # for CS6 Master Collection. I started the installation for CS6 Master Collection and ONLY selected Acrobat X Professional. Voila! Now everything is working.

HT3986 can I use the windows 7 UPGRADE version for this?

I'm thinking about installing Windows 7 to use with Boot Camp .... can I use an Upgrade version of Windows?

As the hatter said, you CAN use the Upgrade version of Windows 7. Here's more details:
Install Windows 7 normally, using Boot Camp and your Win 7 Upgrade disk. Use the "Custom (Advanced)" option.
When it asks you to enter your product key / license, don't enter anything -- just hit Next. This will allow you to continue installing Windows with a 30-day trial.
After you've installed Windows 7, stay in Windows (don't boot to OSX) and put your Win 7 Upgrade disk back in the drive, and run the Setup file that's on the disk.
This will guide you through the upgrade process. This time, instead of Custom, use the "Upgrade" option.
When it asks you, go ahead and type in your product key, and choose to Activate.
However, please note that if you do this, and you DON'T already own a previous version of Windows (and stop using that previous version immediately), you'll be violating the software license agreement. These are the requirements to use the Upgrade version. If you don't meet these requirements, I strongly recommend you install with a full version of Windows 7.

Iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5. Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgraded application.

iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5. Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgrader application. Repeatedly says it can't locate photos even when told to cancel. I think the photos in question are in Nikon RAW format.

iPhoto 9.5 immediately tries to "upgrade" my library using the upgrader.
iPhoto 9.5 asks you to run the upgrader to prepare the library for 9.5. It then will update the library to its format.
You need to do the following:
1 - go to your Applications/Utilities folder and double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application.
2 - select Choose Library, navigate to your iPhoto library, select it and let the upgrader do its thing.
3 - launch iPhoto 9.5 to open and finish the conversion of the library.

Using the Photo/send a link/ function does not link to my address book

Having upgraded to FF4 using the Photo/your albums/send a link/ the 'To' data input line does not interact with my Hotmail Address Book.

This usually means that the address book data file is corrupt.
I'd suggest you export your misbehaving address book to an LDIF file, delete the original address book then re-import its data from the LDIF file.
Note that you won't be allowed to delete either ''Personal Address Book'' (PAB) nor ''Collected Addresses'' (CA) within Thunderbird. You'll have to close Thunderbird, open its profile and delete:
''abook.mab'' for PAB, or
''history.mab'' for CA.
When you next run Thunderbird, it'll create a new empty address book to replace the one you deleted. Import your address to a new temporary address book, then move the Contacts (drag-and-drop) into the preferred address book.

N95 8Gb - using the internatl GPS dicsonnects Blue...

Hi,
I've got a current version N95 8Hb with all the updates etc. I want to use a bluetooth headset for voice navigation with the internal GPS with Garmin Mobile XT software.
As soon as I activate any software that uses the internal GPS the bluetooth headset is disconnected. Turn off the GPS and the headset reconnects.
How can I stop this happening so I can use the headset.
Cheers

Ok,
First things. How are you sure that MAPS was the application responsible for the data usage?
MMS, email, SMS, browser, etc. etc. many applications can access the data line and you specify this in each application. I don't know of any way to turn it off completely without using OFFLINE mode. The settings you described basically allow any application to use data "when needed" and use ANY access point and use HSDPA if available.
About GPS methods:
Network based: In some networks it uses triangulation from the base stations to get a positional fix, This has to be supported by the network, but this doesn't (or shouldn't) use "internet data" so it shouldn't count towards your data plan.
Bluetooth: This option is to use an external GPS module like the LD-4W or others. This is great for car usage as the reception from these modules is better than the phone antenna. If there's not BT GPS device leaving it on doesn't really affect anything.
Assisted: this is AGPS and uses a combination of the stand alone GPS module and the network to get a faster location fix. THis is the best option, I'm not 100% sure if this uses network data channel, mmm need to confirm.
Integrated: It ONLY uses the GPS receiver inside the Phone, It's much slower to get the first fix and you are more likely to lose the signal if you are in an urban environment.
If you select Integrated and/or Bluetooth and turn off Network and AGPS, then you will get GPS fix totally independent of your operator. You can use MAPS without a SIM card if I'm not mistaken...

Upgrade software... location and backup?

I purchased the new apps from iTunes last night, and upgraded my iTunes/QuickTime to the latest versions. Is the iPod upgrade software part of the iTunes library of that machine? And, if so, can it be backed up somehow in case I have a system (or iPod) problem?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

I installed the 1.1.3 update (which was very small and free of charge), but surely that little 12k file doesn't contain all the new apps...?
The purchased software download said ("153MB" or close to that) as it was trying to download. It failed with network timeouts every time I tried it last night... that's the one I'm wanting to back up (once I get it to download, that is...)
I thought perhaps I could try downloading it from here at work, where my net connection is more reliable, but I'm guessing I have to do it from the machine that's associated with my iTunes account.
Steve
