HT4007 Using Aperture 3 on more than one home computer

My family has 5 Apple computers in use around the house - if I buy Aperture 3 as a download can it be used on all of them at no further cost? Is there a different key code that has to be entered each time? How does it work?

If you buy Aperture from the AppStore for personal use, you are entitled to install it on any Apple branded computer you control without any additional cost. Just sign into the AppStore with the Apple ID you used to buy it, and you will be able to download it again on your other machines. You do not need to enter a licence key.

  • Can I use aperture library on more than one machine

    My situation is thus:
    I have a Macbook Pro on which my Aperture Library resides, in wherever Aperture decided to put it when I bought the software.
    I now have a iMac, which obviously will be better than the Macbook for photo editing.
    But I want to be able to take my Aperture Library with me when I take the Macbook out and about, and if necesary still edit on the Macbook.
    Is there any way to share the Aperture Library, so that I can edit on the iMac, but leave the library on the Macbook, and then edit on the Macbook if I wish.
    I am the only user, and will only be using Aperture on one machine at any one time.
    I have searched archives but not managed to find the answer.

    Is it possible to simply share the directory that contains the necessary file(s).
    If your Library is in the location that aperture picks by default, then it will be in your "Pictures" folder - look for a file with a name like "Aperture Library. aplibrary".
    What you will need to share depends on your import strategy for the master images. If you use managed masters, and all your master images reside inside the Aperture library, then you simply need to make this library file accessible  or copy it to an external disk.
    If on the other hand your masters are referenced, then I would recommend to consolidate them into the library before you share the library and then share the consolidated library.
    If you will share your library over the network or just by moving it to an external device is really up to you, but you might consider  the following pros and cons:
    - If you want to profit from the faster CPU on your iMac, then you should keep the library on the fastes volume that is available, and a network volume might be much slower than a directly connected volume.
    - if the network fails during a critical operation your library might get corrupted, if it resides on a network volume - there have been quite a few problems reported in this forum.
    That is why I suggested to use your Macbook as directly mounted external volume, that leaves the library in its place on the Macbook Pro - no need to copy - and you have a very quick and stable connection,  but the decision is yours to make. You will have to be comfortable with the workflow you choose.

  • Using Adobe apps on more than one account?

    Is there a fix forthcoming for the problem running CS4 on Leopard, where you can't use Adobe apps on more than one user account at a time (via fast user switching?) When I switch over to my 2nd account, I get some sort of "licensing error" dialog unless I quit all Adobe apps in my first account, which is incredibly annoying.
    Thanks.

    Greg,
    Adobe's single-user licensing allows for your installation and
    non-simultaneous use on two computers. And the software may think that two different users are trying to use the software simultaneously. You might try contacting Adobe tech support and ask.

  • Can't use the iPod on more than one computer!!!!!!!

    Ok, This has got me so frustrated! We got an iPod and installed iTunes. We thought we had it figured out - we purchased music from iTunes, played it on the iPod and everything was great. Then plugged the iPod into my other computer to listen to our music and it won't freakin' play! says the computer is "Not Authorized" and suggests that by 'authorizing' the 2nd computer, it will overwrite the songs that are already on the iPod. This is NOT desirable. We've downloaded and installed iTunes onto the 2nd computer and used the same login account that we used on the first computer.
    What gives!?!?! I thought this was supposed to be easy, but it's not! I was hoping for a quick and simple "plug it in and start listening to music." This is definately not quick and simple. Albeit, I'm new to this iPod craze, but this shouldn't be so difficult. I've poked around on the website and cannot seem to find an answer to this.
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks
    oh btw, Is anyone else getting annoyed by Apple's rediculous attempt at monopolizing this market by forcing us to use thier own proprietary software?!?!

    First of all, any computer that plays purchased content must be authorized. This can be accomplished by opening iTunes, then store>authorize computer. If you wish to use your iPod on more than one computer & not have your iPod content erased, you will have to have your iPod preferences set on "manually manage". See the following link.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61675
    Also, it's not only Apple that uses proprietary software. How about Zune players, & several others?

  • Using Ipod Nano on more than one Comp

    Can you use IPOD Nano on more than one computer? I tried but on my computer at work, I cannot transfer from IPOD to computer, only computer to IPOD
    Please Help!!

    I should be able to play it where ever I want
    And you can. Just burn it to a data CD, or transfer it to the other computer using a thumb drive, or use networking to transfer it, or even use the Hard Drive feature of the iPod to transfer it. Nothing stops you from doing any of those, and then when it's on the other computer you can play it there just fine.

  • How can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    how can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entries and import the local content you have on that box.

  • Using colorTrans:ColorTransform on more than one movie clip

    Hi I am very new to Flash and action script so please bare with me...
    I would like to be able to change the color of more than one movie clip in the same layer in the same frame. Basically I have place two different movie clips with defined instances,i.e. body and shoulder onto the canvas in one frame on the timeline.
    I have created three different buttons (red_btn, blue_btn, and yellow_btn) to use to change the color of say the body or shoulder. I would use red and blue to change the body and say yellow and green to change the shoulders. These are also on the same layer and same frame on the timeline as the movie clips.
    The problem I am having is how would I declare the two movies or variables to change independantly? Would I need to place one movie clip on one layer and then place the other on a different layer so that when I press the button I want i.e. the red button, it only changes the body and not the shoulders.
    Here is my actionscript that I am using to change the color of the clip(s)
    import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
    import flash.geom.Transform;
    var colorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
    var trans:Transform = new Transform(body);
    trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    blue_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0x0000FF; // blue
        trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    red_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0xFF0000; // blue
        trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    yellow_btn.onRelease = function () {
    colorTrans.rgb = 0xFFFF00; //yellow
    trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    body here is my declared variable wich is the body of a shirt that is one movie clip. When you place both clips on the timeline ontop of each other, you basically get a shirt with different color shoulders and body.
    I need some help to know if this is possible first of all, and then what would be the best way to delcare the variables in one actionsript.
    Thanks and I am sorry, I just never learned much when it came to flash. Thanks for any patience and help anyone is willing to give me.

    every movieclip has a transform.colorTransform property that you can use to assign a color transform (with any rgb property).  so, for example:
    import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
    import flash.geom.Transform;
    var colorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
    bluebody_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0x0000FF; // blue
      yourbodymovieclip.tranform.colorTransform=colorTrans;
    blueshoulders_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0xFF0000; // blue
    yourshouldersmovieclip.transform.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    yellowbody_btn.onRelease = function () {
    colorTrans.rgb = 0xFFFF00; //yellow
    yourbodymovieclip= colorTrans;
    etc

  • Can i use my ipod with more than one computer?

    i synched my ipod with one computer, hooked it up to another and it says i can't sync with more than one library? it says i have to restore it but i dont want to delete my music off of my ipod, i just want to add the music from this other library

    I have two different iPods and two computers. I regularly use either iPod on either computer.
    First set the preferences so itunes will not automatically sync when ipod is connected.
    Then connect the ipod and set itunes to manually manage music.
    Drag and drop whatever content you want to the device showing on the left.
    If this was the default setup, there wouldn't be all these posts about people losing all their music when they connect their ipod.

  • How do I use AE to allow more than one device with my cable modem?

    I connected by AE to my cable modem at my house in Japan and it works fine on "bridge mode," but only for one device at a time (this laptop, but not my iPod Touch, or vice versa). As soon as I connect a new device, it will kick the other one off. It seems that my cable modem here will only allow one device. Is there a way that I can use my Airport Extreme to allow more than one device and not have to pay the Internet provider extra for multiple IP addresses? How do I go about this? Do I select "share a public IP address" or do I select "distribute a range of IP addresses?" I tried these options but obviously wasn't doing it correctly, because then I lost the connection for everything... Thanks!

    It would be best if you "hard reset" the Airport Extreme to clear out the old and conflicting settings and then reconfigure it again.
    Hold in the reset button until you see the amber light begin to blink more quickly. Keep holding for another 3-4 seconds when you see this and then release the reset button. That will get the Extreme back to the original starting point.
    After you have powered the modem back up after the full reset, you will need to reconfigure the AirPort Extreme again. If you are using he guided setup in AirPort Utility, you will choose the option to "create a wireless network" during the setup.
    If you are using the Manual Setup, the Wireless Mode will be "Create a wireless network" and the setting for Connection Sharing would be "Share a public IP address". Adjusting the Connection Sharing setting would be the last thing that you do before you click Update to save settings.
    Here, I am assuming that you have a simple cable modem (it will have only one ethernet port), correct?

  • Error using pretrigger when capturing more than one channel

    I am having problems acquiring data with pretrigger samples when capturing more than one channel, using NI-PXI-6071E hardware and Labview's Analog Input VIs (Legacy NI-DAQ).
    My goal is to trigger on one signal, while capturing another. Unfortunately, I cannot use the PFI0 for external triggering, as our cables/hardware have already been built, so I must use an analog input channel as the trigger. I understand that to do so I must capture both channels, and the channel that I wish to trigger off of must be the first channel in the list.
    If I trigger and capture on the same channel (tried 1-4) then it
    works great, regardless of the number of pre-trigger samples set. If I
    capture more than one channel (passing the trigger channel first), with no pretrigger samples set, then triggering and capturing both work fine. However, if I do the same with the pretrigger sample > 0 I get the following error:
    Error -10621 occurred at AI Control. Possible reason(s):
    NI-DAQ LV: The specified trigger signal cannot be assigned to the trigger resource.  
    I don't se any such limitation explained in the user manual, and searching the forum, I have found a few other people that had the
    same
    problem
    but they did not have solutions. Any ideas?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm sorry for double-posting this. I was trying to post it in the DAQ board and it kept ending up on the LabView board.
