  • Help - How to re-install/download Acrobat 9 - The one that comes with CS4

    Hi I've got CS4. I upgraded to Creative Cloud CS6 for a year and cancelled.  But when I upgraded to CS6 it installed a newer version of Acrobat.  I no longer have my original version that came with CS4. Where can I get my previous acrobat back?
    Thanks,
    Debbie

    Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated.  I had CS4 also loaded on my laptop and just copied the Acrobat file over. It's installed.  Just need to contact Adobe and figure out why my serial number isn't working.
    And to answer the other question.  I had Acrobat XI Pro from the Cloud along with my CS6 subscription (also from the cloud) but when the price went up after the introductory period, I decided that the already paid for in full version of CS4 - along with  Acrobat Pro - 9 was sufficient for my purposes.
    Will definately reconsider at some point in the future.  Thanks again and have a great day!
    Cheers.

  • How do I install Lion on more than one family computer?

    Q: What is the best way to load Lion on to multiple family computers? We have 2 iMacs, one Mac mini and one Mac Book Pro. I downloaded Lion to the newest iMac but now I need to bring my other machines into line preparing for Mountain Lion.

    Hi..
    You can re download Lion on all your authorized Macs using the same Apple ID for free.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps (Lion in this case) you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.

  • I've got a Mac Book Pro 17" 2008 with FCS 2. Compressor 3 only gives me MOV-1 which are no use so I've bought Compressor 4 from the App store: it says the graphic card is not compatible. Can I install a new card on my mbp? If so which is best? Thanks John

    I've got a 17" Mac Book Pro with Snow Leopard and Final Cut Studio 2 . Compressor 3 is only giving MOV-1 which are no use to me. So I've bought Compressor 4 from the App store which it says isn't compatible with the graphics card on my 2008 mbp. Can I
    Install a new graphics card on my computer if so which one? If not can I solve the MOV-1 problem ?
    Thanks in anticipation

  • I have an iMAC G5 PowerPC (not Intel) running10.5.8.  I sync my iphone to iTunes - but just learned I must have Snow Leopard to do so.   Yet I can't install Snow Leopard as the G5 is not Intel.   What do I do?  How do I move music

    I have an iMAC G5 PowerPC (not Intel) running10.5.8.  I sync my iphone to iTunes - but just learned I must have Snow Leopard to do so for my new iPhone 5S.     Yet I can't install Snow Leopard as the G5 is not Intel.   What do I do?  How do I move music and pics?  And keep them synced up as I purchase more? 

    Sorry, but that is correct. You need Snow Leopard to sync your phone and the latest version of iTunes and you old G5 cannot run that.

  • HT201272 How can I recover a purchased app on one itouch (which has since died) and put it on my new itouch device if I haven't syncronised my old device with my mac/itunes account before it died?

    How can I recover a purchased app on one itouch (which has since died) and put it on my new itouch device if I haven't syncronised my old device with my mac/itunes account before it died?

    It is easy to download items you have purchased from iTunes again; this article will walk you through it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    You want the "Apps on iOS" section.

  • I am going to buy a bigger hard drive. i am operating on Lion. how do i install my os on the new disk? i can't use time machine.

    i am going to buy a bigger hard drive. i am operating on Lion. how do i install my os on the new disk? i can't use time machine.

    Plug this new drive as an external drive, boot from lion recovery "command-R" more info here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/
    Open disk utility, format and partition the disk at your will (allways Mac OS plus...) and go ahead with the install, don't care if it tells you to whait thousands of hours, I did get installed in 2 hours and a half last week.
    If you can't plug the disk as an external one, you'll have first to do an USB disk recovery utility, as easy as download the recovery utility and install it in an USB disk, you can find anything from the link above, plug the disk as a single master, and boot from the USB you created before.
    Tell me how it went!!!

  • I recently had to install a new hard drive in my computer. This caused me to have to reload all content back to my iTunes and iPod. I have many apps on my iPod and i don't know how to transfer those back to my iTunes. Can anyone help?

    Right clicking on your ipod in the device list an d choosing "transfer purchases" will copy apps and bought media from iTunes to your computer. Due to the new iTunes library on your new HD, iTunes will erase your ipod during the first sync. To save your data to the computer take a look at this article about saving data from your device to a computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    Basically it's backing up manually, transferring her purchases (apps and bought music), letting iTunes erase the ipod due to the new iTunes library, and restoring from the manual backup again, to get all the data and settings back.
    Make sure your new computer account is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How can I create a drawing like the one pictured from a photo?

    How can I create a drawing like the one pictured from a photo?

    OK, you are getting closer. Now, use your result, and place a Layer above that. Use the Pen Tool to create the "pen strokes" basically tracing over your background image. Then, when you have created each Path (or Sub-Path), choose Stroke Path, with probably the Pencil Tool and a Brush size that is small enough.
    Not sure which versions of PS these are good for, but here are some plug-ins, that might be helpful.
    AKVIS Sketch

    I see that one of my old favorites, Flaming Pear's India Ink is not around any more.
    Good luck,

  • After downloading the new Os X Yosemite my computer has been lagging, how can I fix this?

    After downloading the new OS X Yosemite my computer has been lagging, how can I fix this?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

  • I Have office for mac home and business 2011, can you install on both users on one iMac?

    I Have office for mac home and business 2011, can you install on both users on one iMac?

    That's often a permissions problem. Try launching Disk Utility and running the Repair Permissions. That may fix the problem. Also confirm that the Office 2011 folder is in the Applications folder at the root of the hard drive, not a folder within your wife's Home folder.
    If that doesn't help. post back with further details; your version of Mac OS X, whether you installed Office via a user account with admin privileges or not, and what happens when you try and launch Office from your account including error messages if any.
    Hope this helps.

    When I receive email attachments on my iMac saved as "docx", I can't open them, i.e. the file is empty when I open it.  On my iPad I can open them.  Why?

    I can't open them without buying software when the same emails on my iPhone have the attachment as a PDF and open?  Thanks
    Acrobat PDF files open with Preview which is already installed on the Mac.
